" The Logic Behind the Court’s New Carveout to Freedom of Religion"
We failed in the 1860s and 1960s. We CANNOT fail a third time. They want ethno-theocratic apartheid and permanent KKKristofascist minority rule any way they can get it and must be put under our boots permanently. It is, in fact, almost too late.
I don’t care how angry you are. You are not angry ENOUGH.

… About What He Did’ to USAID
Of course fElon threatened to sue.
Khanna’s assertion was based on the findings of a July 2025 Lancet study, which found that DOGE’s cancellation of roughly 83% of the programs run by USAID—including 88% cuts to child health aid, 87% cuts to epidemic and disease surveillance, and 94% cuts to family planning assistance—could result in the deaths of 14 million people by 2030, including 4.5 million children under five.

the justice system must protect the worth and liberties of every individual, including those in prison
The American prison system exists to be a sadist’s dream under the principle that the only way to correct bad behavior is by applying ever more and ever more severe punishment, which does nothing to correct anything.
As a result, our prison system is the preeminent recruitment ground and education center for career criminals.

John Fetterman warns of rise of ‘dirtbag left’ amid Mamdani victories by democratic socialists
“Yeah, no, I mean, these — the kind of people they are trying to run out of office, they are just good, traditional kinds of Democrats you would expect in New York City now,” Fetterman told Fox News’s Sean Hannity.
“And now this has just become — really, it’s just been the dancing days of the dirtbag left. You know, some of these candidates are outrageous. You have candidates, they’re ‘abolish ICE,’ ‘abolish the police,’ ‘abolish the border.'”
The term “dirtbag left” refers to left-wing political critics generally supportive of progressive and democratic socialist causes and openly critical of mainstream Democrats. Writer Amber A’Lee Frost, one of the co-hosts of the so-called “dirtbag left” podcast “Chapo Trap House,” is credited with coining the term.

Witkoff is one of the “negotiators,” along with Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, on the Iran “peace deal.” Trump’s war, though, has caused his popularity in the UAE to plummet, with one businessman telling the Washington Post, “we got played.”
What’s ETTD in Arabic? I could have told the Emiratis that acronym travels. In fact, it gets halfway around the world before any life-saving measures can get their pants on..

The hilarity of this, is that the centrists are the actual conservatives (as in dictionary definition).
Those that call themselves “conservative” are actually quite radical
