Having a National Prayer Breakfast doesn't make us a Christian country.

That would require caring for the poor & sick, welcoming the stranger and only letting sinless people execute prisoners.

The cult trashes Vivek & Elon for days on H-1Bs. Then Trump sides with E&V and the cult goes silent.

The cult trashes Mike Johnson for weeks over the CR. Then Trump sides with Johnson and the cult goes silent.

I guess they just believe what Trump tells them to believe.

RFK Jr: Fact-checking his views on health policy Robert F Kennedy Jr has been nominated to be the next US health secretary, but some of his views are not backed by science.

"Vaccination has probably saved more lives & is better researched than most, if not all, aspects of healthcare. RFK Jr could set this back & be responsible for the death & disability of myriads of people, particularly children.”

Outstanding BBC fact check on RFK πŸ‘‡

Here's a link to my blog. It's meant to be a personal memoir.

I like telling these stories even if they aren't read. They are parts of my life that I enjoy remembering.

I don't post that often. If you'd like you can sign up for the newsletter at the site and get the new stories.

Republicans Know Why Americans Don’t Fear Authoritarians Because they asked them.



"...In focus groups, strategist Sarah Longwell repeatedly asked Republicans β€” do you think Donald Trump is an authoritarian?
