This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.

Justice Thomas should be sitting in the seat that CJ John Roberts occupies.
There are many who can relate…
Your telling me Betsy.
Me and so many millions more burdened by the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) between Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Massachusetts, Maryland, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Virginia.
Another perspective…
A progressive pope takes aim at AI and risks killing its miracles
(The pope’s new encyclical links AI to the Industrial Revolution, ignoring how that era lifted millions from poverty)

It’s easy to decide for oneself. Here’s the text of the Encyclical.
Encyclical Letter of His Holiness Leo XIV Magnifica Humanitas (15 May 2026)

Another example of how journalism is failing, even from a supposedly conservative site.
“President Donald Trump threatened Wednesday to “blow up” Oman if the longtime U.S. ally sided with Iran in seeking joint control over the Strait of Hormuz, according to reporting from the New York Post, Reuters and other outlets covering a White House Cabinet meeting.
“If Oman doesn’t behave, we’re gonna have to blow them up,” Trump said during the meeting, according to the New York Post.“
Once again the usual suspects are involved. Why would Newsmax even publish this article?

Journalists have a responsbility to report what they see and hear.
Why are you blaming Newsmax?? They are simply doing their job.
Maybe the President shouldn’t be saying hot garbage like that.
The garbage in your world is yourself.
You can’t run fast enough to get away from it.
The only solution in to start learning the facts if life. Reality will bite you in the butt if you pretend.
So, wake up and smell the roses. No one can pay you enough to make your garbage life worth it.
