The ultra-wealthy keep trying to pit the rest of us against each other with scare tactics ("communists!" "men in the ladies room!!" "brown people!!!" "drag queens!!!!") to keep us from noticing that our real problem is THEM. They want us to fight *any* war—except a class war. Happy Labor Day.

If you’re in Caldwell or Hays county, be sure to support the examiner. I learn so much important info about this area every month. This kind of independent journalism is necessary in these times.

BREAKING: EXCLUSIVE: DHS legal opinion justifying ICE entering homes without a judicial warrant is nothing more than an email written by ICE Deputy Principal Legal Advisor Adam Loiacono, and DHS refuses to release it. www.muellershewrote.com/p/exclusive-...

EXCLUSIVE: DHS Refuses to Release Email Justifying Warrantless Entry by ICE
I sued to obtain the General Counsel Memo justifying ICE entering homes without judicial warrants. Turns out it’s not a memo at all - it’s an email - and they’ve wrongly redacted it.

Dolly Parton did all the good she could, for all the people she could, for as long as ever she could. From her legendary songwriting to the Imagination Library—which sent 1 million books a month to children across the country—she was the best of America. Dolly, we'll miss your great heart.

The Library is devastated to learn of the passing of Dolly Parton, a music legend and titan of children's literacy. Her Imagination Library program has earned multiple Library Literacy Awards and, in 2018, she visited us to donate its 100 millionth book to our collection and host a story time. 🦋❤️

Texas has decided public schools should teach Noah's Ark, the Burning Bush, Adam & Eve, and more as required reading. It's terrible news for religious freedom. It's also terrible news for Christianity itself. www.friendlyatheist.com/p/texas-just...

Texas just made Bible reading mandatory in public schools
From Noah's Ark to the Book of Job, the State Board of Education approved a required reading list packed with Christian scripture

And it's especially fine not to respect presidents who disrespect their office, their oath of office, the Constitution and laws they swore to uphold, honor, decency, morality, truth, humanity, and everything we should be striving ourselves and teaching our children to respect.
Jonah Goldberg: This is pretty hard to square with everything he’s said about pretty much all the previous presidents — including when many of them were presidents. And the vast majority of people who applaud this are surely hypocrites too. It’s fine not to respect presidents. They work for us.

FWIW, if you’re holding high level emergency strategy meetings on how to “spin” the Epstein files, 3 things quickly become clear to everyone: 1) you are in the Epstein files. Significantly. 2) you are a very bad actor in Epstein’s heinous criminal activities. 3) you can’t spin, so you COVER-UP

Porcupine puffer fish are engaging and intelligent tropical fish. While they are known as masters of defense, they are also naturally very curious. But don't let their adorableness distract you; their potent toxin, tetrodotoxin, can be lethal to humans.
