I don’t recall the bishops making any sort of video like this to condemn the Biden White House for supporting, funding, and facilitating the mass slaughter of children in the womb. I also can’t remember seeing any video with solemn condemnations of the Biden White House and its…

NEW: Following Pope Leo XIV's lead, the U.S. bishops release a new video condemning the Trump-Vance White House’s “inhumane” deportation raids.

From my humble seat as a lowly PM: - Alignment on what we were doing. A single list of what the priorities are from c-suite. - Managers as ICs. Less emphasis on coordination, more on building. - Rituals that show, not tell. Demo code every week. Including VERY rough living…

Robocallers located abroad have been tricking Americans into picking up their phones by displaying U.S. area codes. But now, the FCC is seeking comment on rules to prevent anyone -including a legit biz with call centers abroad - from masking the caller's real country of origin.…

Hey guys if this is really about SNAP benefits and starving families, the Democratic Party and their Bluesky influencers wouldn't be throwing a hissy fit right now. Everyone knows this and the only reason this was dragged out this way is because the media carried that message…

They just went on for three weeks about unaffordable healthcare and starving families and then tonight they're all upset that people will get healthcare and their snap benefits back.

The Dem “no” statements are wild. Blaming Rs for not handing them another Obamacare bailout as a condition for ending their government shutdown. The ‘healthcare crisis’ they lament is 100% their own party’s policy failure.

Since 1963, 75% of all nationwide injunctions have been against President Trump. 90% of those injunctions came from Democrat-appointed judges. Yet the Admin has a 92% win rate at SCOTUS. President Trump isn’t the one abusing his power. It’s Democrat-appointed judges.

If judged based on consumer adoption, AI chatbots are the most popular technology ever. If judged based on poll numbers, they are the least popular. How to explain this? A big part of it is the Doomer Industrial Complex — hundreds of astroturfed organizations that have spread…

In the first century the term Christian was a political term, not a religious one. Followers of Jesus weren’t branded Christian to differentiate them from Zeusians or Jupiterians. The term Christian was coined by pagans based on Latin political terminology. Christian was…

That a US president leaves office knowing he wants to raise $1.5 billion from the country's richest people and largest corporations -- all so he can build a gigantic monument to himself -- is the incestuous sleaze and noxious self-dealing that people hate about the DC swamp:

Poker games are a way for lobbyists to launder money to politicians. What great luck the Governor had! He’s a real sharp.

Gov. JB Pritzker released partial tax records Wednesday showing he and his wife reported more than $10.3 million in taxable income — including more than $1.4 million in income from gambling. trib.al/2rxkLEI

Shocker. Reduce subsidies and the price drops?? Who could have ever guessed.

Santa Clara is one of the first law schools to publish 2026-27 tuition. Historically, Grad PLUS loans have had no limits. Starting next year, professional school borrowing will be capped at $50k/year. Notice anything about the trend in tuition? I expect many schools to copy this.
