"Tastes, smells and sounds are transporting. Shutting off the news, hovering over the stove and having playlists meant escaping the 'Do I need pants today?' stress we’ve all encountered." washingtonpost.com/food/2021…

I still can’t believe @RonBonjean hired Dennis Haskins, aka Mr. Belding, for his Christmas party. He was just the nicest guy. Proud to have been his chauffeur! politico.com/blogs/click/201…

Horrific scenes out of Kyiv this morning as Russia used a jet-powered drone to blow up Ukraine’s National Academy of Sciences. People are escaping through windows as the building burns. Just like they target kindergartens and schools, now they are bombing science.

Knowing how the Jewish population takes this slogan, there's still no hesitation on the left to use this.
Is there any other example of how this would be remotely acceptable (say, Confederate flags at a political event at Ole Miss), or is it just when the target are Jews?
CAMPUS CURRENT: AOC takes the stage at Cornell University after her democratic socialist hosts lead a crowd in chanting "from the river to the sea."
The event, billed as a "Students vs. Billionaires" town hall, saw the Young Democratic Socialists of America's leaders accuse the Ivy League school of "profiting off of genocide and war" before the congresswoman took the stage later.
AOC made no apologies, instead joining her hosts in accusing the university of censorship — while a Fox News Poll shows 55% of registered voters hold an unfavorable view of the DSA.

Of course this happened.
Dude has to make a deal somewhere, sometime in his presidency...
Extraordinary for any American president: Mr. Trump offered to sell weapons to Xi Jinping of China. That was revealed in an interview by David Perdue, the US ambassador. Trump is withholding a $14 billion arms package to Taiwan approved by Congress. China aids Iran and Russia.

If you think this is sad news, you’re telling a lot about yourself.
Earlier today, the IDF eliminated Saher Nidal Latfi Sakr, the terrorist who drove the motorcycle used to abduct Noa Argamani and Avinatan Or from the Nova Music Festival on October 7, 2023.

During his homily today Pope Leo said:
The "call to conversion also concerns the Church herself as she makes her earthly journey. She must have the courage to begin with herself. In order to heal the deep wounds, infidelities and painful errors that have occurred within her, we must humbly place ourselves under the Lord’s purifying gaze. Recognizing our own faults is essential to our spiritual growth."
Later in the afternoon, the Vatican confirmed that Pope Leo XIV held a private meeting in Lourdes with seven victims of sexual abuse.
According to a statement by the Vatican press office Sept. 27, the survivors — four men and three women — were accompanied by Bishop Gérard Le Stang of Amiens, president of the Council for the Prevention and Fight Against Pedophilia of the French bishops’ conference.
“The pope met with each of them individually and privately, listening to their stories, to the pain and suffering they experienced — sometimes, unfortunately, with the complicity or silence of those who could have helped them — and to their proposals to ensure that this never happens again,” the Vatican said, adding that with some, “he paused for a few moments in prayer.”
After meeting with each victim, the pope met with them together and thanked them “for their painful testimony.” The Vatican also said he reaffirmed his “commitment to ensuring that the evil they experienced is not repeated for others.”

Sort of like all the "Rs claim funding from the Biden bill the they voted against" and zero stories of "Dems claim funding from OBBB they voted against?"
Is there a theme here?
Sam Forstag now says he doesn’t want to campaign with AOC after begging for her support and bringing her to MT during the primary.
Montanans can’t trust anything this guy says. Like his current TV ad claiming he isn’t actually a paid lobbyist for radical causes.

It's hard to put into words the feelings that overcome you at Loudes, but it's sort of tactile, and it never leaves you.
Pope Leo's visit shows that.
At the end of his meeting with the staff and sick pilgrims welcomed at the Accueil Notre-Dame in Lourdes, Pope Leo XIV broke protocol to approach as many as possible of those who had taken part in the gathering.
Lourdes receives millions of pilgrims from around the world every year.

Hard to overstate the impact visiting Lourdes can have. 60 Minutes did a great segment a few years ago about the miracles created there. cbsnews.com/video/sanctuary-…

This is incredible. 80,000 young French Catholics sing the Salve Regina in Latin with Pope Leo XIV at a Prayer Vigil in the Stade de France.

EWTN's coverage of Pope Leo's visit to France has been great. Looking forward to seeing his visit to Lourdes.
More than 700,000 people have gathered across Place de la Concorde and the Champs-Élysées for Pope Leo’s open-air Mass in Paris.
France—the “eldest daughter of the Church”—has shown its Catholic roots throughout this historic visit.

Does El-Sayed ever talk about Michigan?
Everything I see is Israel, Palestine, Israel, Palestine, Bill Maher (who is Jewish), Palestine.
And so much national media, not Michigan outlets.
"The great displacement of people told they were going to be able to come home, in a couple of days, never ever be able to go back"
Abdul El-Sayed is right that Palestinians were told they would be able to come home after the war launched by 7 Arab states on Israel immediately after the Jewish state was founded.
Why does he leave out who told them that?
The same Arab countries that set out to rid the Middle East of Jewish sovreignty confidently informed Palestinians that they would return to their homes after victory was secured.
The decendants of Palestinians who stayed or came back are Arab Israelis today. They make up 20% of Israel's population.
Many chose never to come back. Some truly couldn't. But the initial call to leave, and the war that created the chaos in which both Arab and Jewish communities were destroyed, was initiated by Arab countries.
I'm glad Abdul El-Sayed brought up this point. It truly illustrates how much you have to selectively revise history to reach his conclusions.
