Yes. I was born in 1960 and all of these were expected, although mumps was considered somewhat more dangerous than the others.

"Most of the lyrics in Porgy โ€“ and all of the distinguished ones โ€“ are by Heyward. I admire his theater songs for their deeply felt poetic style and their insight into character. It's a pity he didn't write any others. His work is sung, but he is unsung." Stephen Sondheim

Okay, so I give Iran one more week to activate its famous SLEEPER TERROR CELLS and if it doesn't I'm going to assume that Rupert Murdoch and the Daily Mail made the whole thing up. . .

Whatever had the worst information about Trump was likely the first destroyed. We are left with tidbits that they know will not hold up to scrutiny.

Republicans are pushing DOJ to bring criminal charges against Cassidy Hutchinson for spilling the beans on Donald Trump's Jan 6 shenanigans.

This is all about creating a chilling effect on anyone in the administration who is *currently* witnessing unethical/illegal behavior.

Why aren't the interviews with Virginia Giuffre where she named specific men (including Ehud Barak) whom she accused of being perpetraters available through the Epstein Files release?

My Modest Proposal is that the office of the presidency be abolished altogether and its functions split up between other branches of government. We really don't need a king at all. I know this won't happen any time soon but it's good to be aware that presidents are not needed -- not even good ones.

Daily Mail FWIW:
'The final straw came when Noem told Senator John Kennedy under oath that Trump had personally approved a $220 million taxpayer-funded ad campaign that featured her prominently. Trump flatly denied it. 'I never knew anything about it,' he said.'

A guy who recently paid $50,000 to a woman who accused him of an especially nasty rape is now talking to our allies about Christian values!

I agree, but it's preferable if people in government are qualified and, if they are not qualified, then they should have demonstrated some sort of outstanding ability applicable to the position to which they are appointed.

Wikipedia: "In 2010, Mullin received an associate degree in construction technology from Oklahoma State University Institute of Technology. He is the only currently serving senator without at least a bachelor's degree."

Maybe there is a good cop/bad cop element here. Generally, people need a soft landing place when they exit but I think their decision to do so is often informed by earlier, unpleasant interactions where someone has pointed out their wrongheadedness, and they have later thought it over.

"If we actually want people to leave harmful movements, someone has to be there when they do. My own orientation is strategic: I want us to win. And winning means fewer people adhering to violent ideologies and more people aligned with liberation."

Mike Pompeo is taking big money from the Moonies again, which is likely an indication that he's preparing his war chest ahead of a run for office (President?). #Pompeo

The argument that Jesus supports individual giving but not organized giving through chosen representatives of the community is partly an argument that Jesus doesn't understand economies of scale.
