A good song to end St David’s Day. Prophetic words to the rise in fascism

A political cartoon features a figure resembling former President Donald Trump sitting at a desk, writing a response to an email. The email appears to be from "Elon Musk" and is addressed to "All Federal Employees" with the subject line: "What did you do last week?" The response written in large, bold letters says, "BETRAYED AN ALLY." The cartoon is signed by the artist, Bramhall, and labeled as from the New York Daily News (NYDN). The image was shared by "The Tennessee Holler" with the caption "CARTOON OF THE DAY."

Well, that is something.

Around 35% of SpaceX’s revenue comes directly from the federal govt.

Less than 1% of NPR’s budget comes from the federal govt.

The Trump administration might benefit by designating an official "nice person," who would be tasked to say something decent and human at days of national grief. The president himself, first lady, VP, etc. etc. are obviously uninterested/incapable ... but there must be someone?

Inauguration week was a collision of two Christianities (RNS) — Between the Christianity of Trump and the Christianity of Christ, we recognize the widest possible difference.

Perceptions of honesty and ethics among professions (Q: “How would you rate the honesty and ethical standards of people in these different fields?”). A key question at this point in history. The 2025 data is bad news for TV reporters and advertising practitioners. Good news for nurses and teachers.

An "odd looking salute" - so says the Toronto Star.
There is nothing odd about fascism.
It's arrogance and it's evil.

Trump's strategy is divide and conquer and Danielle Smith is playing right into that.

On pessimism, optimism, and hope: The world can't afford any more pessimism.
As for optimism, it tells us that everything will be OK.
That's the thinking that got us in this mess.
But hope gives us courage to believe that things can be changed.
I have hope.
Lots and lots of hope.

It’s very good. It’s written by a Canadian journalist for Random House Canada.

Jimmy Carter has passed away. My wife says he was the last decent man in politics.

What does it say that this took me zero time to understand.
