I was born into a Democrat Household. I have left the Democrat Party. I'll never vote for a GOP/MAGA but I will not support a party that has no vision and no leadership. Done. Chuck has got to go.

Exactly. Because only an adult can give consent. So, if you're not an adult, even if the under-18-year-old says she consented to it or wanted it, consent is not a factor. It's rape. Period.

She is DEFINITELY trying to make an excuse for this.

The legal age of an adult/consent is 18 in US law and the UN international law.

Sex w/ anyone under 18 = sex with a child = pedophilia.

Sex w/o consent is RAPE, whether you're 8 or 108.

In US law, and the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, a person is considered a child until the age of majority, which is commonly 18 years old.

Sex with a child is pedophilia.

No consent = rape. Doesn't matter whether you're 8 or 108.

A STATEMENT FROM MEMBERS OF THE DELAWARE INTERFAITH COUNCIL Seeking common ground in troubled times.

In these difficult, uncertain, and often chaotic times, and especially during and after the government shutdown, it is easy for anxiety and fear to rule our hearts and minds.

From The Writer's Almanac

Happy birthday Kurt Vonnegut Jr. During WWII, he was imprisoned in a slaughterhouse in Dresden. Vonnegut & his fellow prisoners only survived the bombing because they slept in a meat locker three stories below the ground. He published Slaughterhouse-Five (1969).

The GOP/MAGA folks seem deaf to what happened last night, but so is the DNC. The Party is not back, as Hakeem said. The voters are done with "business as usual". We're done with party politics and identity wars and 'nice'. We want results. Tell us what we're voting FOR. Not what we're voting AGAINST

They're protecting themselves. They know that if the Current Occupant reads anything they've written, blaming or even implicating him in any way, they know they are dead dog meat.

Now, the DNC needs to wake up and listen to what Democrats said with their vote. We got the power, not you. Good thing

Absolutely no doubt. And, the MAGA/GOP know that if they change it, when they lose power in 2028, well, it's Nellie bar the door! (Which is why the Dems didn't change it when they had a chance.)

I love it when I wake up in the morning after a Blue Wave has hit the country overnight. Makes me smile, and I havenโ€™t done that first time in the morning in a long time.

He's blaming the Blue Wave on the shutdown and trying to pressure the Republicans to change the filibuster rule.

He just sounds stupid. He's not.

He's not smart. He's just shrewd. Very shrewd.

Herb was a classic bishop of a certain generation who was as pastoral as he was prophetic, and he did both seemingly effortlessly and with grace. He will be deeply missed.
