N.J. just struck a blow against banning books It's called the "Freedom to Read Act."

NJ passes a law preventing cranky fucknuts from going apeshit on school libraries and librarians.

GRAHAM MEETS WITH FBI DIRECTOR NOMINEE KASH PATEL
CLICK HERE FOR PHOTO
WASHINGTON - U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) met with Kash Patel, President Donald Trump's nominee to be the next Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
"I had an outstanding meeting with Kash Patel, President Trump's nominee to be the new FBI Director. We discussed how the FBI can deal with the national security threats that America faces at home and abroad. He indicated that one of his top priorities is to go after those groups on the internet who are grooming America's children for sexual exploitation.
"Kash promised to get the FBI back to its original mission of protecting America, and that the days of the FBI leadership having their thumb on the scale politically will be over.
"I look forward to his confirmation hearing. President Trump did a great job in nominating Kash Patel."

Patel and Graham grinning like children about to get ice cream, doing the Trump-posed-photo-thumbs-up thing.

Lindsey Graham is definitely one of my top 10 most embarrassingly craven (cravenly embarrassing?) national politicians.

We are known deeply by the One who loves us unconditionally. Just as a shepherd cares for his flock, Jesus knows each of us by name and laid down His life to bring us closer to the Father. In Him, we are never alone.

How the UK became a nation of misinformation and disinformation Like many other parts of the world, the UK is in the firm grip of an epidemic of disinformation and misinformation

Without a doubt, misinformation is the greatest threat to society and democracy. It is out of control, it’s poisoning minds, and many people have lost the ability to recognise fact, or think critically. It’s a world wide crisis

Screenshot of a UK Labour Party tweet, in which the Tweet says "The Tories lost control of our borders. Labour is taking it back," and the image is of Keir Starmer with a headline saying "Keir Starmer has organised the three largest deportation flights in UK history."

I get the political calculation here. I'm just gonna point out that the predominance of research into European parties' efforts to outflank the far right like this has found that they merely legitimised the far right's political framing and led voters to opt for the "full fat" version.

I have covered both Musk and Alex a lot, and only one of them is a useful idiot for Putin and also a heinous person. The other is a patriot who did his job with distinction and is a very good man. Guess which is which: thehill.com/policy/techn...
