Retired from work but still full of life. Dog sports, especially nosework and traveling are filling my days.

Laughing in front of cages designed to hold migrants and refugees, many of whom came to this country fleeing extreme violence and poverty, and hoping to raise their children in a more compassionate country. And many of whom followed all the legal procedures to enter the country.

Spot on. This is the clearest explanation Iโ€™ve seen. It โ€˜s relatable, and humanizes the issue in a way everyone can understand.

Lev 19:33-34:
When an alien resides with you in your land, do not mistreat such a one. You shall treat the alien who resides with you no differently than the natives born among you; you shall love the alien as yourself; for you too were once aliens in the land of Egypt. I, the LORD, am your God.

U.S. negotiators outmatched by Russians in Ukraine talks, say analysts The Trump administration is claiming progress in its efforts to end the war between Russia and Ukraine, but each side is interpreting the ceasefires differently.

Shocking. Who could have guessed that inexperienced lightweights would be in over their heads?

Before Trump's WHO cutoff, who was funding the UN health organisation? Following Trump's decision to withdraw the US funds from the WHO, a senior employee started a campaign to raise $1 billion. But which countries funded the organisation in 2024? #EuropeInMotion

Donald Trump would rather stop funding medical research, medical & food aid, education, food assistance, school lunch, Social Security than make the rich pay taxes. And thatโ€™s all you need to know about the convicted felon, charity thief, insurrectionist, fraudster.

This is definitely not the America I know and loved. She had every right to scream her bloody head off cause someone grabbing her with no identification should be kidnapping plain and simple.

This is painful, and saddening, and embarrassing. I feel like we're losing a member of the family - and for no good reason other than that some Americans wanted another season of the worst reality TV show in history.

In 1862, a Union soldier found cigars wrapped in paper in a field. The paper contained General Lee's invasion plans and helped the Union stop Lee at the battle of Antietam.
To this day, It's unknown who lost the orders, or if he was related to Pete Hegseth.

I'm still putting the story together. I'm sharing limited info and request for more info anyone seeing this message might have. I understand that DOGE showed up today at the Institute of Museum and Library Services and rapidly began sending employees home. This was presaged in an executive order...

Europe looks to poach US researchers as Trump cuts funding Twelve EU capitals want programs to bring over American scholars.

Russia kidnaps Ukrainian children and gives them to Russians to erase their heritage and demoralize Ukraine. Over 20,000 so far. And the US just stopped helping track these kids and likely deleted the database of all the research. Pure evil, right maga?
