The fact that striking Iran can be put on hold for weeks in an attempt to sway the midterms clear proof that Iran doesn’t pose an imminent danger and this war is an evil charade

AP: "Archbishop Timothy Broglio, who oversees the Catholic Church’s pastoral services to Catholics in the U.S. military…stipulated that any Catholic soldier assigned to the U.S. Army firing squad should ask to be excused from that duty, which he described as contrary to the teachings of the church."

Any reasonable ethics reform policy would bar Rahm Emanuel for running for office over the extensive violations of transparency, lobbying, and government contracting practices. Any reasonable Democratic Party would run Emanuel out of town for his awful policy record and moral character.

Former White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel calls on Democratic lawmakers to set aside plans to impeach President Trump if they win a majority in the House, pushing them instead to pass an ethics reform package.

The chintzy-looking M64 clone console of the N64 by a company named ModRetro has been released, I think, I don't pay attention that closely to shit. But as the great @frankcifaldi.bsky.social posted before, it is our civic duty to push back against this company and shun ANYONE who doesn't.

On the *same day* the Cornell Seven drugged and raped Jane Doe, Cornell banned four students (including the President of Cornell JVP) from campus for three years for nonviolent, pro-Palestine protests. The same Cornell officials let the rapists off with apology essays.

The Pope reminds me of a version of Catholicism I knew growing up as a young man attending anti-war and anti-death penalty protests, where I met elderly Catholics who shared their version of faith with me. I learned that Catholicism was about love and mercy for the weak, the condemned, and the poor.

Pope Leo XIV celebrated Mass with an estimated 800,000 people in Paris on Saturday, after spending the morning with migrants, the poor, and adults newly entering the Catholic Church. “For Christians,” he added, “the poor are not a sociological category, but the very ‘flesh’ of Christ.”

Today, I see angry young men online LARPing as Catholics, often for the aesthetic. They celebrate strength and hate the weak. The use slurs against the disabled and fantasize about enacting Crusader violence against their enemies. I wish the Pope would speak directly on this.

There's so much delicious food in Japan, and a lot of interesting drinks. But as an immigrant from the US, I always have a hankering for sodas... and Japan lacks cherry cola. I spend too much time researching ways to get some cost-effective Cherry Coke Zeroes or something... it's hard.

So they realized they're in the gutter, no revenue in sight, operating at a tremendous loss, and suddenly decided to slow down "to save the humanity."

Remember: They want you to fear Muslims, immigrants, and Black and brown people so you forget that a Muslim immigrant from Uganda and South Asia just hastened the safest New York City summer in history. They want you to believe MAGA propaganda over Mamdani’s proven example. Don’t fall for it. ❤️✊🏽

So to Vance, Iran is not a war, despite US soldiers dying, US military bases destroyed, and missiles running out. Sounds just like Putin, who called the Russian full-scale war against Ukraine a "special military operation." The GOP continues to parrot its Russian patrons.

JD Vance praises Trump for winning wars, says moments later of Iran that "I wouldn't call it a war" 🥴
