I feel like their obsession with the western hemisphere is also somehow very connected to western civilization in their brains.
But, the day after the original article was published Lindsey Graham got in front of cameras and claimed this is a βreligious warβ and literally used the phrase βa thousand yearsβ which is central to the specific Christian nationalist belief system.

Yeah that is a fair point. That, or the immediate deployment of U.S. troops / boots on the ground.
There was a classified briefing on Iran - so far Iβve only seen Warrenβs video but itβs as described! Sheβs just kind of riffing about how bad the situation is. No plan, no exit strategy, etc.
Itβs been snowing all day where I am! Like how are people going to drive anywhere this evening?!
Feels like I didnβt hear anything about this until after it had been snowing all day / time for the evening commute π«€
lol
Not necessarily a list, but AHEAD, The Association on Higher Education and Disability posted a good response to the Atlanticβsβ βAccommodation Nationβ from December.

Needed this hopecore today, UKLG-bot π.
Wait, why not?
Just realized Iβm also doing this π. I just invoked Markey v Moulton on a thread about a completely different state.

Yep - see Markey v. Moulton. Markey unequivocally and vocally supports trans rights while Moulton doubles down on kids in sports bs *and* voted for that ridic βthank you iceβ bill. Markey may be too old but Moulton is trash. #mapoli
no seriously why would a school be the target?
5 is still nighttime imo
If and when we get hit with a bunch of "anti-woke" pop culture, try to remember that it's not a "vibe shift." That stuff isn't popular. No-one watches it, buys it, etc. It's a few guys with too much money to ever go broke, willing to burn ungodly sums on forwarding their agenda.

No no nowβs the time to clean the interior den where you plan to spend the cozy time! Also make sure thereβs a place to dry off the snowy boots etc.
Yessss canβt wait to listen I love shipβs cats so much! Courageous little sailors!

Dutch Historianβs takedown of billionaires and βphilanthropyβ - to their faces and on their turf - at Davos in 2019 continues to be a spot on assessment. I watch it every year and it just gets more true.
A reminder to the news media: βconflicting accountsβ is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.
hell no
