It's impossible to look at this stuff and not be viscerally angry. People from great civilizations and empires that have withstood the odds of entire armies taken down in our very lifetimes because they were determind to not be "nice" enough.

The two things she emphasizes are: that she “above all” believes in forgiveness, and that she believes this especially “as an American.” Not really an apology if the two things you emphasize are: 1) I believe that you should forgive me, & 2) btw please don’t mess with my immigration status I’ll say anything half-assedly to apologize for shitting on & threatening your country

My unsolicited advice to Republican politicians would be: just be a normal person.
You aren’t Donald Trump. You aren’t funny. Please be normal.

Translation:
"About this time lived Jesus, a wise man, if one ought to call him a man. He did surprising deeds, taught those accepting truth gladly, and won many Jews and Greeks. He was the Christ. Pilate crucified him on charges from our leaders; his first lovers did not stop. He appeared to them alive on the third day, as divine prophets foretold these and myriad wonders about him. The Christian tribe named from him has not vanished to this day."
Written account of Jesus rising from the dead identified in 2,000-year-old manuscript, study suggests trib.al/XFIwGJj
Community note
This research compares later Greek, Latin, Arabic and Syriac copies to reconstruct what Josephus may have written around AD 93–94; it did not identify an account in a 2,000-year-old physical manuscript. joe.co.uk/news/ancient-j… wsjfreeexpression.substack.com/p/unlocking-th…

Civilizations don't survive just because they were once great.
They survive because each generation understands what it has inherited—and passes it on.
We are not running to keep the status quo. We're running to defend the American way of life, our inheritance, that has been attacked by political insiders and corrupt politicians for the last sixty years. And we need your support this November 3rd to preserve that American inheritance.
It was an honor to join Vice President @JDVance at his rally today.

It's seriously incredible that Christian scholarship since the mid-1970s has consistently shown our faith to be historically reliable and most people don't even know about it or care.
A new analysis argues that Jewish historian Josephus’ 1st century account of Jesus is authentic and may draw on firsthand sources connected to his trial, possibly high priest Ananus II. The findings could strengthen evidence of his historical existence. - Oxford University Press

Today I was blessed to meet Bernard W. Richard while I was poll greeting in Upshur County.
I wish I could convey the gravity of our meeting. I’m not sure I’ll ever forget it. He is a serious soul, with obvious wisdom.
Almost the first thing he said to me was, “If those who bled and died could see [our country] now, they’d be ashamed.” And he had tears in his eyes.
Mr. Richard is a Vietnam veteran. He was a mechanic in the Army (just like my grandfather was in Korea). He talked about the horrors of war: sleeping with snakes, rows upon rows of our servicemembers killed in action, the frustrations of repairing engines in near total darkness, and the overwhelming smell of gun powder and blood.
He told me about the time he was hit with a mortar and left in a pit of his dead comrades.
After his service, Mr. Richard started a non-profit that teaches children how to grow their own food.
He told me, “I’ve never met a congressman.” I told him I couldn’t change that for him today, but I gave him my phone number.
It would be an honor to call Mr. Richard after Election Day and be the first congressman to meet him.
I’d be grateful if you’d help me do that.
Early voting ends Friday.

NEW: Senate candidate Troy Jackson reiterates his support for abolishing ICE when I ask if he worries about opposition to that from other Senate Democrats.
Sen. Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.) weighs in too—he supports reform but not abolition.
I’m here in Brunswick, Maine, at Flight Deck Brewing, where Sen. Kelly and Troy Jackson are going to appear at a veteran-focused campaign event.

You can just go to random towns in the Midwest and you get transported to Europe before woke. They don't want you to know this.

As a young adult with an apartment you are on average paying less for just about everything in Texas metros, including essentials like your apartment and food than most major metro areas. This is totally false.
"At this point, Texas isn’t "cheap." It’s just an expensive state with a better marketing team and a bigger toll booth."
