An old Bible college pal recently challenged me to explain how life can have any meaning whatsoever if God does not exist. This is my answer. (And nope, I did not give her a link to an old YouTube video of me talking, but it’s the same answer essentially) youtu.be/dAKa4Cxxzq4?si…

ICE is fully funded for years. Democrats have shut down the other agencies to get ICE reformed. NPR: How ICE became the highest-funded U.S. law enforcement agency npr.org/2026/01/21/nx-…

And there it is. DHS and TSA aren't getting paid because Trump doesn't want to pay them, and Thune & Johnson are too afraid to act like the leaders of co-equal branch they claim to be to call the vote and force the question.

Punchbowl with a pretty significant report this morning, that more or less puts Trump now on the hook for the TSA funding lapse.

5 minutes before Trump’s announcement: * $1.5B notional worth of S&P500 (ES) futures are bought in a single clip. * $192M notional of oil futures (CL) sold. More than 4x-6x any other trade size during the market close. Insiders profited from his lies in broad daylight!

Chris Murphy: "We're gonna give Iran $14b to fund this war with the US? We're gonna give Russia billions of dollars to fund their war with Ukraine? We're literally putting money into the pockets of the very nations we're fighting right now. We've never seen this level of incompetence in war-making in this country's history, and frankly we've had a lot of incompetence in war-making."

CNN is running a segment on Christian nationalism, and how some in the administration may see the Iran conflict as a religious war to preserve its influence. “Trump could start WW3, destroy the economy, and some will rationalize that and continue to support him unquestionably.”

Trump makes it clear to News Nation he’s holding TSA/DHS funding to get his “SAVE” (Republicans) voter suppression bill passed — including some anti-trans stuff He then doubled down and posted about it TLDR: So thank Trump for the long airport lines

The Save America Act is an attempt to steal the midterms by devising a pretext to keep American citizens with a right to vote from casting ballots under the guise of stopping voter fraud. It goes *far beyond* mere voter ID and destroys federalism. Dems *should* stop it
Andrew Kolvet@AndrewKolvet

President Trump offers a concession to the Dems: He's willing to give Dems a $5 billion cut in ICE funding to fund DHS (TSA) if the Democrats agree to pass the Save America Act including... Voter ID Citizenship confirmation No Mail-In Voting (with exceptions) All Paper Ballots No Men in Women's Sports No Transgender Mutilation for Minors

Please don’t send this to @realdonaldtrump or his family members. It would be wrong to remind everyone he was a 5-time draft dodger and a coward.

Amazing stuff. Learning by doing. Q: "Why not build a LNG ship here?" A: "The cost of building an LNG ship in Asia is ~$260M. It costs about $1B here." Q: "So why can't shipbuilders just use American steel?" A: "When we put tariffs on imported steel, it drives the prices of steel up. What we know today is that American steel is about twice as much as steel in China." Q: "So what you are saying is when the price of steel goes up because of tariffs, then the American steel manufacturers hike the price of steel? 🤯"

@conradhackett Most Americans believe the soul enters the fetus at or near conception, in ghosts and gods, and that people can live after they die. Most Americans believe lots of self-destructive stuff that’s not in their best interests.
