Obama sued, iirc repeatedly, the Little Sisters of the Poor, a religious order dedicated to the care of the poor especially ill & without family. Not one practising Catholic was unaware of this abomination (cf his dementia ridden VP)

.@BarackObama: "When I was president, I suppose I could have simply unilaterally ordered the military to go into some red state and harass and intimidate a governor there or cut off funding for states that didn't vote for me... but that is contrary to how I think our democracy is supposed to work."

🚨 BREAKING: Sen. Josh Hawley just pushed for a CRIMINAL INDICTMENT against Minnesota AG Keith Ellison because he tried HELPING fraudster avoid being caught "You took $10,000 from them 9 days after the meeting!" "YOU helped fraudsters defraud the state of $9B, and you got a FAT campaign contribution out of it! You ought to be INDICTED!" "They BEGGED you to help them — and YOU AGREED TO IT! It's ALL ON TAPE." "You said: send me the names of these folks investigating them. YOU SAID IT. 'I'll take the list, call the person at Education, and say, what's going on?!'" "They CAME to you asking for help getting investigators off their backs!" "Why'd you do it, why'd you help them?!" ELLISON: "I didn't do it!" HAWLEY: "That's not you? Is that a ventriloquist?! BS!" He's right, Ellison MUST be held accountable!

@redb56 There's a hierarchy here: Baseball = True Patriot Football = All American Basketball = Okay, that'll do Soccer = You probably use the metric system Soccer but calling it Football = The ICE van is waiting for you outside

I don’t want the church to participate in political activism. But here’s what I would like. I’d like the church to think seriously about what it means for embodied creatures to participate in the kingdom of man. I’d also like the church to stop sowing psycho-emotional doubt about the piety of her members because some of them want to organize politically and use political means to secure political goods.
Erick Erickson@EWErickson

The progressive right is following the same pattern of the progressive left 100 years ago insisting churches must speak to contemporary political issues and be political activists as a church. Their churches will suffer the same fate, death. But Christ will prevail.

Real friendship is unspeakably good and beautiful. My heartbreaks for this untimely death. God, damn cancer.
Charles C. W. Cooke@charlescwcooke

John Ekdahl was my best friend. He died today of cancer, at 47. I know that some of you knew and loved John, so I thought I’d let you all know. I have set up a GoFundMe for his family, which is linked in this tweet. John and I “met” on Twitter about 13 years ago, and then, a couple of years later, met in person at the 2014 NRA Convention in Indianapolis. We quickly realized that we had a lot of the same interests—technology, amusement parks, baseball (we were both Yankees fans)—and soon started texting about everything and nothing. In 2015, when I published my book, the first stop on my promotional tour was in Jacksonville, where John lived. I asked him which hotel I should stay at, and he said that, instead, I should stay with him and his family. So I did. From that moment on, he and his wife (and their two kids—one of whom had just been born) became my closest friends. When, in 2017, my wife and I decided to move to Florida, John barraged me with propaganda about Jacksonville, and invited us to stay for a few days so that he and his wife could show us around. We were sold. John was like that. For the first few years after I moved to the United States, I wasn’t into the NFL. In 2016, this started to change, so John began a remote campaign to turn me into a Jaguars fan. “Jags are on,” he’d text apropos of nothing on a Sunday, even though he knew that, from Connecticut, the chance of my getting the game was close to zero. As part of this effort, I got weekly AFC South updates, a series of memes about Blake Bortles, and an introduction to the perfidious cabaret act that is the Tennessee Titans. John even invited me down to see a game against the Colts—which the Jaguars won 30-10. In my first real season as a fan, the Jaguars made the AFC Championship game, and were minutes away from making their first Super Bowl. After I moved down to Florida, John and I bought season tickets together, which we kept until the end. I had hoped devoutly that the Jaguars would make the Super Bowl this season—which was destined to be John’s last. During the pandemic, John and I started a business together that, relative to our expectations, did pretty well for a while. As is typical, most of our ideas didn’t pan out, but that didn’t matter. We had fun coming up with them at the bar, adding “just one more drink” to the tab to make sure that we hadn’t missed an angle or forgotten to write something crucial down on the back of an increasingly ragged napkin. I am 41-years-old and, with the exception of my wife, I’ve never met anyone who was easier to talk to than John. If we went for lunch, we’d go for hours, chatting about sports and rollercoasters and our kids and the new iPhone and the unforgivable changes that Disney made to Epcot in 1999. I shall miss that immensely. There was one thing we didn’t talk about: At no point since his diagnosis, did John and I ever acknowledge with each other how serious his condition was, or that, all things being equal, it was likely to take him before his time. From the start, it seemed that John silently picked me to be the person with whom he could pretend that everything was normal, and I fulfilled this role until the last. Even when things were clearly terrible, we’d make plans—to take a trip to New Hampshire with our families and friends; to ride the new rollercoaster at Epic Universe; to go to opening day at the new Jaguars Stadium in 2028; and more. The last time I saw him, I said the same thing as I said every time I'd chatted with him over the last 11 years: "Talk to you in a bit." gofund.me/20cbdce0f

A small number of people commit most crime. They intimidate and attack passengers on public transit, rob and vandalize stores, wreck the commons. Instead of infantilizing predators as victims, we should have rapid and humane arrests and other penalties. It’s not complicated.

This one is almost too much to bear. He forced a woman in her own car with a gun, raped her, made her drive to an atm empty out the accounts, then raped her again. He had a history of crime, robbery gun charges etc, and during the trial he told the woman he raped that “I’ll see you in 20 years bitch” The judge said this is someone who just fell through the cracks

WTF. Tracy Davis, a Jefferson County Judge in Kentucky, has cut the jail sentence of Christopher Thompson IN HALF from 65 years to 30 years, after he was convicted of kidnapping, robbing, and R*PING woman. Her reasoning? Because Thompson is black and is a victim of society. You can't make this sh*t up.

Idaho is among the states that needs to take a very serious look at changing our way-too-permissive surrogacy laws. Right now, we allow surrogacy as long as the poor women have complied with contractual obligations, which increasingly requires them to deliver via c-section. That needs to change and change fast.
Emma Waters@emlwaters

This isn’t an over-dramatization, but the reality for many surrogates in the United States. Brittany Pearson experienced this first hand in 2024 when the intended parents chose to withhold medical care to their premature baby rather than raise him… and stop paying her.
