FOX: Among the crew are the first woman, first person of color and first Canadian on a lunar mission. There's a lot of firsts happening.

If you were “a pleasure to have in class”, how are your autoimmune disease(s) and late/undiagnosed neurodivergence treating you?

I don't know the answer to Jim's question, but I question his premise that one of Trump's great successes is "enabling free speech." Consider that he and his administration have: · signed an executive order purporting to ban flag burning and punishing it by up to one year in jail; · targeted visa holders and lawful permanent residents for deportation based on their speech; · revoked federal funding from Harvard and other universities and conditioned future funding on adopting speech codes and restricting academic freedom; · issued executive orders singling out disfavored law firms that effectively made it impossible for them to work with the federal government, its contractors, or even have access to the federal courts; · repeatedly threatened the licenses of TV networks who hosted late-night comedians and broadcast news reports he didn’t like, including by re-opening frivolous Federal Communications Commission complaints against broadcasters that were previously dismissed as being “fundamentally at odds with the First Amendment”; · suggested his attorney general, Pam Bondi, should investigate ABC News for “hate speech”; · banned the Associated Press from the White House press pool because it refused to adopt “Gulf of America” in its editorial standards; · blatantly directed criminal prosecutions of political opponents, such as former FBI Director James Comey and New York state Attorney General Letitia James; · pressured app stores to remove lawful apps from their app store offerings. · and targeted, detained, and even shot citizens who protested or filmed Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents conducting operations in public places. etc.

The New York Times takes an architectural look at the coming White House ballroom and finds there is a lot of ornamental stairs to no where and faux windows with bathroom stalls behind them

Fun fact. Anyone born and raised in Ohio still calls them the Indians.

A former adulteress who repented of her sins is a Christian. To deny that she is someone a godly man may faithfully marry is to deny the power of God in the gospel.

A resurfaced video of Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker giving a glowing review of Chicago's lakefront is stirring up controversy after a college student's murder near the area. Pritzker highlighted the safety of the area, which now conflicts with the murder of 18-year-old Loyola University student Sheridan Gorman, who was allegedly shot and killed by an illegal immigrant while walking near the lakefront with friends last week.

I don’t really understand the people shaming this guy for sharing his and his wife’s testimony, provided she was OK with him sharing. He wasn’t specific, just shared how the Lord redeemed her and what a godly wife and mom she is today. I’m gonna be honest, in a world in which we are constantly posting details about our lives, how Christ changed us is the most important information we can share. The world needs to hear—I was just like you once, and God saved me from that. which means he can save you too! Why wouldn’t we want to tell people that story?
