I know I've said it before, but I'll say it again. Very few people appreciate what America lost when we lost newspapers. Just being able to sit down every morning in silence and peruse news, opinion, sports, advice, recipes, interesting human interest stories all in one place was such a pleasure. The Internet has never produced anything that comes close.

Artemis Il astronaut Victor Glover gives a speech after a warm welcome from his neighbors. “Some of us have never met before, and you know whose fault that is, ours. So let's choose to do this. Let's be this more. Let's be neighbors. I don't know if you heard me say it, but God told us to love him with all that we are and love our neighbors as ourselves.” (via sp00kycut1e on TikTok)

Epstein Survivor Juliette Bryant just released a message to Melania Trump: “Hello Melania Trump. My name is Juliette Bryant. I’m an Epstein survivor. You want girls to testify under oath, well here I am testifying that everything I said is true. Unfortunately a lot of the girls who testified died. Maybe it’s time that you and your husband testify too.”

NEW: Pope Leo XIV’s close ally Cardinal Robert McElroy received a standing ovation at the end of his homily, where he called on Catholics to take up civic action to help end the “immoral” war against Iran. “When we leave this church tonight, we must move beyond prayer. As citizens and believers in this democracy that we cherish so deeply, we must advocate for peace with our representatives and leaders. “It is not enough to say we have prayed. We must also act. For it is very possible that the negotiations will fail because of recalcitrance on both sides, and the president will move to re-enter this immoral war. “At that critical juncture, as disciples of Jesus Christ called to be peacemakers in the world, we must answer vocally and in unison: “No. Not in our name. Not at this moment. Not with our country.”

This evening I went to Mass at St. Matthew’s Cathedral in DC. Cardinal McElroy gave an incredible homily against the Iran war. He called it “immoral” numerous times. And he ended with: “No. Not in our name. Not at this moment. Not with our country.” There was a huge applause.

Pope Leo XIV@Pontifex·
God does not bless any conflict. Anyone who is a disciple of Christ, the Prince of Peace, is never on the side of those who once wielded the sword and today drop bombs. Military action will not create space for freedom or times of #Peace, which comes only from the patient promotion of coexistence and dialogue among peoples.

McGowan: Can just let me speak for like one fricken second, bro? Rothman: Sorry. McGowan: There was a deal and Trump came in and said, I can get a better deal. And he ripped it up and he didn't get a better deal. And then he went into that country at the request of another country's leader, and he spent $50 billion and killed thousands of civilians and at least 13 American soldiers and hundreds of American soldiers are injured. We've hurt our bases. We've hurt our radar. People hate the country now. We had a president say that we're going to destroy an entire civilization…. That does not make you a good negotiator. That doesn't make you a good guy. It makes you psychotic.

He spent six months in Charlotte’s jail for a killing. Then prosecutors let him go. No plea. No trial. No bond. David Graves, in an exclusive interview with @theobserver, maintains he did not kill his friend's cousin. Gift link below: charlotteobserver.com/news/local/cri…
