This is a fair question to all evangelical Christians, including myself: “Dear conservative evangelicals; You gave him a pass on “grab them by the pussy.” You don’t mind that he’s an Olympics-class liar. A thirty-four count fraud conviction didn’t faze you. Not even an adjudication of rape bothered you. He’s mentioned in the Epstein documents literally 38,000 times. You don’t find it odd that he’s personally blocking the release of three million of those files. He’s the most corrupt politician in American history. He’s broken all ten of the Ten Commandments. Including taking the lives of 153 little girls whose only crime was being in school. And then he lied about it. He doesn’t go to your church. He doesn’t go to ANY church. He cheats at golf. He cheats at business. He cheats contractors. He cheats on his wives. He cheats in elections. He’s profane. Crooked. Disrespectful. Selfish. Driven by greed. By ego. By revenge. Yet here you are worshipping a golden idol in his likeness. So what is it about YOU that makes you a Christian? Bruce Lindner”

À 95 ans, le philosophe et professeur américain Noam Chomsky a perdu la capacité de parler et d’écrire, marquant la fin d’une époque durant laquelle il a dévoilé des vérités profondes sur les systèmes mondiaux. Parmi ses réflexions les plus mémorables, on retrouve : « Il n’existe pas de pays pauvres — seulement des systèmes ayant échoué dans la gestion des ressources. » « Personne n’insérera la vérité dans votre esprit ; c’est quelque chose que vous devez découvrir par vous-même. » « Pour dominer un peuple, créez une menace imaginaire plus grande que vous-même, puis proposez-vous comme son protecteur. » « L’une des leçons les plus claires de l’histoire : les droits ne sont pas simplement accordés — ils se gagnent par l’effort et la lutte. » « Dénaturer l’histoire pour glorifier de “grands hommes” enseigne aux gens qu’ils sont impuissants et doivent attendre un héros, au lieu d’agir eux-mêmes. » « Le monde est complexe et déroutant ; si vous refusez de faire face à cette confusion, vous risquez de devenir une copie de l’esprit de quelqu’un d’autre. » « Pour contrôler les gens, faites-leur croire qu’ils sont la cause de leurs propres échecs et que le salut viendra d’une force extérieure. » « Le monde finira par regretter les idées qui détournent l’humanité de sa véritable nature. Reconnaître les valeurs authentiques est essentiel. »

In May 1860, she kissed her six children goodbye. She thought about the dinner she would cook later. She thought about the laundry. She thought about the quiet life of a mother in Illinois. She had no idea that when the front door clicked shut, it would stay locked for three long years. Her husband, Theophilus Packard, was a respected minister. To the neighbors, he was a man of God. But inside their home, he was a man who could not stand a wife who thought for herself. Elizabeth Packard liked to read. She liked to debate religion. She had her own opinions about life and faith. In the 19th century, for a woman to have a brain was considered a danger. Theophilus decided to end the argument once and for all. He didn’t need a crime. He didn't need a witness. In those days, the law in Illinois said a man could commit his wife to an insane asylum without any evidence or a public hearing. He simply had to say she was "disturbed." One morning, a group of men arrived at her home. They didn't listen to her logic. They didn't care about her tears. They dragged her away to the Jacksonville Insane Asylum. Elizabeth was 43 years old, perfectly sane, and suddenly a prisoner. When she entered the asylum, she expected to see people who needed medical help. Instead, she found a warehouse of "inconvenient" women. There were wives who had argued with their husbands about money. There were daughters who refused to marry men they didn't love. There were women who were simply too loud or too independent. "This is not a hospital," Elizabeth realized. "It is a cage for the unwanted." The doctors tried to break her spirit. They told her that if she just admitted her husband was right and she was wrong, she could go home. They wanted her to say she was crazy for wanting her own thoughts. Elizabeth looked them in the eye and said, "I cannot buy my liberty by a lie." She didn’t give up. Instead, she started to write. She hid scraps of paper in the linings of her clothes. She tucked notes under floorboards. She recorded every abuse, every scream in the night, and every story of the women around her. She became a secret journalist inside a living nightmare. After three years, she was finally released, but her husband locked her in a room at home. He planned to move her to another asylum in a different state. This time, Elizabeth’s friends helped her get a message to a judge. A trial was finally ordered to determine if she was actually insane. The courtroom was packed. Theophilus was confident. He brought "experts" to say that her religious doubts proved her mind was broken. But then, Elizabeth stood up. She didn't shout. She spoke with the calm power of the truth. She explained her beliefs. She showed the jury that having a different opinion is not a disease. The jury only needed seven minutes. They came back with a single word: Sane. Elizabeth walked out as a free woman, but she found that her husband had taken everything. He had sold their furniture, taken her money, and disappeared with their children. She was alone and penniless. Most people would have disappeared into the shadows. Elizabeth did the opposite. She spent the next forty years traveling the country. She stood before the legislature and demanded new laws. She said, "A woman's mind is her own, and the law must protect it." Because of her, states changed their laws. They made it illegal to lock a person away without a fair trial and a medical exam. She turned her private pain into a public shield for thousands of other women. She proved that even if you take away a woman’s home, her money, and her children, you can never truly take away her voice.

@SecDuffy @POTUS Republicans are supposed to be for business but they just shutdown an entire airline but not just them the fuel suppliers, food suppliers, cleaning crews, and thousands of other support businesses! How is that being a good business Man? Just religious Nuts trying run our lives!

The Trump Administration puts Americans FIRST 🇺🇸 @POTUS was not going to bail out Spirit unless it made sense for the American taxpayer We are lucky to have a GREAT businessman in the Oval Office who won’t allow bad deals to go through

"If we are honest — and scientists have to be — we must admit that religion is a jumble of false assertions, with no basis in reality. The very idea of God is a product of the human imagination. It is quite understandable why primitive people, who were so much more exposed to the overpowering forces of nature than we are today, should have personified these forces in fear and trembling. But nowadays, when we understand so many natural processes, we have no need for such solutions. I can't for the life of me see how the postulate of an Almighty God helps us in any way." — Paul Dirac, Remarks made during the Fifth Solvay International Conference

Happy Atheist Day, Heathens. March 23rd. The one day a year the internet remembers we exist... as if we weren't here the other 364 days asking for evidence. Normalize atheism. Normalize not needing a cosmic hall monitor to be a decent person. Normalize asking questions withou…

In 1970, a 23-year-old physics student at Imperial College London was deep into his doctoral research on cosmic dust when he faced an impossible choice. Brian May, a budding astrophysicist, had been studying the zodiacal dust cloud—tiny particles scattered throughout the solar system that reflect sunlight. His research was progressing, and he was on track to complete his PhD. But he also had another passion: music. May was the guitarist for Queen, a band that was beginning to gain serious attention. They had just signed a record deal, and tours were on the horizon. The opportunity was immediate and couldn't be ignored. Standing at a crossroads, May made a life-changing decision: he chose the guitar over the telescope. Queen's rise to fame was swift. By the mid-1970s, the band was a global sensation. Songs like "Bohemian Rhapsody" and "We Will Rock You" became anthems, and May's distinctive guitar tone—created with his homemade instrument, the Red Special—became iconic. Albums sold millions, and stadiums filled with fans. But May's academic work was left unfinished. His thesis remained incomplete, and his research was put on hold. However, Brian May never lost his love for science. Even as Queen dominated the rock world, May kept up with developments in astrophysics. He continued reading journals, attending lectures when he could, and staying connected to the academic community. His thesis advisor, Professor Michael Rowan-Robinson, had told him, "You can always come back and finish." In 2006, more than three decades later, May decided it was time to return. He contacted Rowan-Robinson, and they discussed the possibility of completing the research. The field had advanced, and May’s data was outdated, but his original observations remained valuable. With Rowan-Robinson's guidance, May worked to update his research. May continued his music career while revisiting his old data, incorporating modern research, and refining his analysis. In 2007, Imperial College awarded him a PhD in astrophysics, not as an honorary degree, but through genuine research and peer review. At age 60, May became Dr. Brian May. His PhD was a testament to his dedication to both music and science. He didn't need the degree for career advancement—he had already achieved rock stardom. But his pursuit of knowledge, both for its own sake and to finish what he had started, made his accomplishment remarkable. May’s story proved that it’s never too late to finish what you start, even if it takes 36 years. Passion, whether in music or science, doesn't have an expiration date.

Bob Mueller was one of the finest directors in the history of the FBI, transforming the bureau after 9/11 and saving countless lives. But it was his relentless commitment to the rule of law and his unwavering belief in our bedrock values that made him one of the most respected public servants of our time. Michelle and I send our condolences to Bob’s family, and everyone who knew and admired him.
