So I'm thinking maybe christianity should be forked to a new branch called "kirkianity" and it's accompanying set of laws should be called "Charlia Law"

You know, WW III is so boring and unimaginative. Why don't we call this, "The War Against Intelligence"?

Everyone in DC knows that if you want to hide something, announce it on a Friday in August. Better yet, make it nearly impossible to track down. That's exactly what SCOTUS did last week. But the news is too staggering to hide for long: SCOTUS has decided it's time to destroy the Voting Rights Act.

So I have a question. If we can't tax billionaires, because they will leave why is that bad? Where would they go? If I move to another country, I still have to pay income taxes to the former US. I would have to give up my citizenship.

This is feel-good propaganda from WP. They are no longer a trustworthy news source. Trying to show that they are honoring immigrants who go through the legal process. There is plenty of public evidence of people being snatched in the process of fulfilling their legal requirments.

Local news is on top of these Trump weather forecasting cuts & the devastating impacts on local communities. Here's another wrong headed move. This one limits HURRICANE INFORMATION for forecasters. Read WPLG-TV's Hurricane Specialist @michaelrlowry.bsky.social: www.local10.com/weather/hurr...
Critical hurricane forecast tool abruptly terminated
U.S. Department of Defense announced Tuesday it would no longer process and deliver data essential to most hurricane forecasts  (also shows radar map of a hurricane)
