Do you know how hard it is to lose the war if you're the United States? It's about as unlikely as bankrupting a casino.

St. Sabina Catholic Church in Chicago has placed more than 100 crosses outside the parish. Each bears the name of someone who died in ICE custody or during an immigration enforcement action. Union workers built the traveling memorial, which began at Holy Name Cathedral last month.

It's good to point out these sorts of lame intimidation efforts. But it's also important to put the ineffectiveness in context. If the goal is to promote voting, flagging the structural limitations of federal threats should be part of that process.

3/5 Around #Malvern Great Malvern Priory - Originally the church of a 12th century monastery and rebuilt and extended in the 15th century. Sir George Gilbert Scott did a Victorian restoration in 1860, but there is still much medieval in the church. #photography #churchphotography #architecture

The image depicts the intricate and ornate ceiling of a Gothic church. The ceiling features a stunning array of ribbed vaults, stained glass windows, and detailed stone carvings. The stained glass windows are vibrant and colorful, allowing light to filter through and illuminate the space. The central part of the ceiling is adorned with a richly decorated wooden or painted panel, adding to the grandeur of the architectural design. The overall impression is one of awe-inspiring craftsmanship and historical significance.
