You guys won't like this, but the way you keep historical churches open is to attend the church and support it financially. That building probably has a couple million dollars in deferred maintenance and no one can be bothered to show up on Sunday.

The occam’s razor explanation of the 2024 election is that there was no big ideological realignment, and instead Gen Z and Hispanic Americans just voted their pocket books, thinking Trump would make prices look like they did when he was president.

Cornyn, a member of Intel, says: “I agree with what the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence concluded, and that was that Russia was up to its old tricks, which is trying to influence the election. Thankfully, there's no evidence at all that they were successful in changing

One of Israel's most staunch liberal Zionists, Fania Oz-Salzberger, daughter of renowned author Amos Oz, pleads with Israeli soldiers to refuse servinv in Gaza, also reaching out to families. She cites war crimes, mass starvation, and betraying of the hostage families by the gov.

This MF really just sat on a political nuclear bomb for 4 years, huh? ☠️

If these warnings about impending famine in Gaza are accurate -- as best I can tell, they are, though I'm relying on news reports, not independent research -- the moral necessity of creating a place of refuge for Gazans who aren't in Hamas is glaring. theguardian.com/world/live/202…

something I don’t quite get is how the racism towards Omar Fateh is way more vicious than it is towards Zohran Mamdani. The stuff directed at Omar is just almost feral in its racism

My 85 year old grandmother just moved to an old age community and she already has a guy with a full head of hair interested in her. How is her dating life more exciting than mine??

"If the police ask to look in your basement for a missing hitchhiker recently spotted in your car, and you offer to let them inspect your desk and closet instead, this will not dispel suspicions about what a basement inspection might reveal." theatlantic.com/politics/archi…

Just 40 days ago, Democratic lawmaker Melissa Hortman and her husband were killed by an unhinged Trump supporter and the story has basically already vanished from the national consciousness. DO NOT LET IT.

When did America have the happiest families, the best music, the most close-knit communities, and the most moral society? In the view of most people, it's probably about when they were 10-20 years old. (This story is from last year, but it's worth linking to it again.)

Based on what I have read and heard so far, the agreement reached between the Federal government and Columbia University is an excellent template for agreements with other institutions including Harvard University. First, academic freedom is preserved as the University maintains academic autonomy.

President Trump's "One Big Beautiful" Act rescinded a program which had set aside $355 million for the I-90 Allston highway project, a project to straighten the Mass Pike in Allston at ground level alongside Soldiers Field Road, paving the way to create West Station by 2045.

Some of us warned a decade ago that having just blue states rely on independent redistricting commissions while leaving red states to gerrymander at will was a recipe for GOP weaponization of redistricting but many Dem pundits and democracy groups ignored us.

Ghislaine Maxwell has been telling friends for years a reelected Donald Trump will pardon her. Now his lawyers are going to meet with her in private. And the she’ll testify fully and honestly in Congress. I can’t see anything to be concerned about here.

“His penis is teeny tiny.” South Park absolutely destroys Donald Trump with fake PSA promo featuring Trump’s micro-penis. (Note: confirmed by Stormy Daniels)

Timeline of a cover-up. 2023/4: Patel, Bongino claim gov’t is hiding the Epstein list. June 2024: Trump says he’ll release the Epstein docs. Feb 21 2025: Bondi says Epstein list is “on my desk.” Feb 27: Bondi releases “The Epstein Files: Phase 1”; claims FBI hid additional

Trump could give Ghislaine Maxwell a pardon on his last day in office, in exchange for favorable testimony now (SCOTUS has already said he can’t be prosecuted for it). She knows he’s her only chance for release. That means any “new” testimony she offers is inherently unreliable

“The NEA described the Holocaust as having '12 million victims' from 'different faiths' without mentioning the attempted extermination of the Jewish people” freebeacon.com/america/larges…
