NEW: At Pope Leoโ€™s Urging, Bishops Issue Historic Rebuke of Trumpโ€™s Raids Nearly all U.S. Catholic bishops united in Baltimore to denounce the Trump administrationโ€™s โ€œinhumaneโ€ deportation campaign โ€” a near-unanimous, unprecedented moral stand against a sitting president.

BREAKING: At Pope Leo XIVโ€™s urging, U.S. Catholic bishops just delivered the strongest rebuke of a sitting president in Church history โ€” condemning Trump-Vance raids as โ€œinhumaneโ€ and โ€œdehumanizingโ€ in a 216โ€“5 vote.

I once got a book proposal arguing that Mary could not possibly have written that novel. It had to have been her husband, who generously let her take credit. I have no idea whether another publisher picked it up.

The front cover of Art Herstory's new Sofonisba Anguissola limited edition lined hard cover journal, set in a Christmassy setting with holly, pinecones, and in the background a tree heavily decorated in red and gold tinsel and balls. The journal cover reproduces an oval self-portrait of the young Sofonisba Anguissola holding a gold medallion with a monogram. The background around the oval-shaped painting is black.

This month is the 400th anniv of the passing of Sofonisba Anguissola. Art Herstory commemorates the moment with a (very) limited edition hard cover journal.

This is cheating, but my other favorite is Richard Kiley singing โ€œI, Don Quixoteโ€œ on the original cast recording of Man of La Mancha.โ€ Years later, I saw him in person in a roadshow production in DC.

โ€œIf Ever I Would Leave You.โ€ When I was a romantic 13-year-old, I babysat for a family that was crazy about musicals. I listened to the original cast recording of Camelot with Julie Andrews, Richard Burton, and Robert Goulet over and over.

Dunno man, seems a little misleading to write an article about Trump describing activity in Portland and Chicago as โ€œinsurrectionโ€ with a 33 year old photo of a burning donut shop taken in the 1992 LA Riots (sans caption explaining that) as the header on all your posts about it.

A screenshot from a 1941 Dorothy Thompson piece for Harper's reads: 'Mrs. E would go Nazi as sure as you are born. That statement surprises you? Mrs. E seems so sweet, so clinging, so cowed. She is. She is a masochist. She is married to a man who never ceases to humiliate her, to lord it over her, to treat her with less consideration than he does his dogs. He is a prominent scientist, and Mrs. E, who married him very young, has persuaded herself that he is a genius, and that there is something of superior womanliness in her utter lack of pride, in her doglike devotion. She speaks disapprovingly of other โ€œmasculineโ€ or insufficiently devoted wives. Her husband, however, is bored to death with her. He neglects her completely and she is looking for someone else before whom to pour her ecstatic self-abasement. She will titillate with pleased excitement to the first popular hero who proclaims the basic subordination of women."

today i learned dorothy thompson was dragging trumpy tradwives in 19-hundred-and-fucking-41 in Harper's, the same magazine which would 79 years later publish a letter decrying precisely this kind of drag as illiberal cancel culture

SWAWELL: If you don't know how many times Trump's name appears in the Epstein files, it could be at least 1,000 times


PATEL: It's not

SWAWELL: Is it at least 500 times?

PATEL: No


SWALWELL: Is it at least 100 times?

The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.
