I understand that there are a lot of folks on the left who instinctively recoil from religious language, and with good reason given its use by the right.
But please listen to this, and focus on how he's trying to realign "Christian values" so they align with and advance progressive policy goals.

It is absolutely insane that the US appears to have targeted desalination plants first – putting them onto the board. Iran seems to have already retaliated against one in Bahrain. This is one of the most obvious ways this could spiral.

Every hour, the Trump administration changes its justification for war with Iran. And they have no plan for how to end it.
Trump started a new illegal war with no end in sight.

So let me get this straight ...
1. US bombs Iran
2. Oil price goes up a bit, benefitting Russia's petrostate
3. Russia gives Iran targeting info
4. Oil price shoots WAY up
5. US unsanctions Russian oil

Shopkeeper: These masks allow state agents to act against people with impunity.
Homer: ::stares blankly::
Shopkeeper: That's bad.

I know that the race to the bottom that is “Dumbest US Senator” is pretty close, but Ron Johnson and Tuberville have a few horse lengths on Mullins.
Which isn’t saying much.

I think war is serious business, real life-and-death stuff, and should be taken seriously by people who initiate and prosecute it.
Sorry to get so partisan, but that’s how I feel.

And I wouldn’t worry too much about that military service merit badge just yet. It will take at least a year to develop the material and approve it. If it gets that far, I doubt it will be Eagle required. 2/2

To be fair, the Cit and Society merit badge that is being discontinued basically calls itself the DEI merit badge, and that is why it was targeted. Everything in that badge is already covered in other parts of the program, either in regular rank advancement or in the other Citizenship MBs. 1/2

There are family troops. Family troops are mixed gender, and they can have mixed gender patrols.
This, plus solo tenting and modern unisex single stall showers facilities go a long way towards addressing most of the concerns I’ve heard about this policy change.

Ms. Wilkins, the daughter of a financial specialist in the aerospace industry (her mother) and a global consumer products executive for Gillette (her father), had lived in London and Switzerland, and for a time attended elementary school at Collège du Léman in Geneva. She is originally from the Boston suburb of Weymouth, but likes to emphasize her time living in Arkansas.

if you believe in any form of free enterprise at all, the idea that the Pentagon can not only cut off your contract but designate you a supply chain risk and prevent other companies from buying from you just because you won't build killbots for the government should be terrifying

the current position of the US government is that NVIDIA should be allowed to sell chips directly to China but banned from using Claude, because the latter is a larger national security risk. that is the level of absolute insanity coming out of the White House & Pentagon nowadays
