PASTOR LORAN LIVINGSTON (@CentralChurchNC): “There has never been a Christian nation, and never will be. You don’t live in one now. A Christian nation wouldn’t have killed and displaced 20 million Native Americans, or thought owning slaves was pleasing to God.”

r.i.p. Alan Greenspan, met Ayn Rand when he was 26 and went on to make the most incredible mess of the U.S. economy based largely on her insane theories www.theawl.com/2011/04/when...
If the Enron disaster had not already made the hollowness of this argument horribly apparent, the financial crisis four years later could leave no doubt. And so it was that in October 2008, the mother of all Objectivist reckonings came to pass: The Span had to defend his disastrous policies to Congress one Thursday afternoon and explain why the U.S. economy, for decades under his stewardship, had gone kablooey. Here is what he said to that mob of furious congressmen who made up the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.

“I made a mistake in presuming that the self-interests of organizations, specifically banks and others, were such as that they were best capable of protecting their own shareholders and their equity in the firms […]

“Those of us who have looked to the self-interest of lending institutions to protect shareholders’ equity, myself included, are in a state of shocked disbelief.”

Being a House Republican must be so humiliating. Donald Trump tweets at 2 a.m. that horse shit is food, actually, and the next day you've got to go on Fox News and say how much you love eating horse shit.

They’re charging James Comey for posting “8647” on his Instagram, saying it’s a threat. Do you know how stupid this is? I worked in food service. When we “86’d” someone, that meant “throw them out.” Not KILL the customer.

My 1st encounter with "86'd" was on a Counterstrike server where being a "bloody wanker!!" (i.e. breaking server rules) would get you "86'd." It meant kicked & banned. My 2nd was in Family Guy where A*dy D*ck shows up at a club and says, "Let's get 86'd!" I've never once heard it to mean violence.

this headline is such a great example of “racecraft.” musk isn’t passively posting about “race,” he is actively writing psychotically racist agitprop www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

Elon Musk’s near-daily online posts about race are turning off some fans
Elon Musk posted almost daily about race on X in recent months, a Washington Post analysis found, at times sharing views experts said echoed white supremacy.

I have a terrible joke for y'all. The U.S. has a listening station in the Arctic to eavesdrop on Russia/the USSR. But military history buffs were surprised to learn that Soviet missile systems had the listening station's outhouse as its main target. Why? The KGB heard there were icy bms there.

The US government collected over $1 billion in immigration fees then refused to process the applications. No denials. No refunds. Just silence. This is the largest fee fraud in the history of the American immigration system. Here's what's happening. 🧵
