Maher: So being Christian is an important part of being truly American?
Boebert: Absolutely
Talarico: I always speak up on behalf of my non-Christian neighbors. Because we as Christians are called to love them as ourselves, and forcing my religion down their throats is not love.
Boebert: The separation of church and state is not in the Constitution. We are a Christian nation
Talarico: America is not a Christian nation. It is a nation where you are free to be a Christian — or any other faith, or no faith at all.

Today in history, 1958: The peace symbol is designed by Gerald Holtom. One of the most recognizable icons in the world, it’s a superimposition of the flag semaphore positions for the characters “N” and “D,” taken to stand for “nuclear disarmament.” /1

Rev. Jesse Jackson built the Rainbow Coalition as a political home rooted in dignity and solidarity. That struggle continues here in New York City, in every fight for housing, justice, and equality.
Today, we lower our flags in his honor — and recommit to the movement he called us to build.
From Flushing to Sunset Park to Canal Street. New York City knows how to celebrate Lunar New Year.

B. Has anyone ever been happier about third place than Ami Nakai? I think that she was genuinely thrilled specifically to not beat her mentor Kaori Sakamoto.
And who doesn't love Jimmy Webb? I saw a video of a guy ranking the worst pop songs ever and McArthur Park was on that list. My opinion is that it's a great song, a one-of-its-kind epic, and since Alysa Liu is skating to it almost 60 years after its composition, History agrees with that opinion.
