In my long career with Phillips Petroleum Company, I was around some of the biggest egotistical sons-of-bitches in the business, and even Boots Adams didn't ask underlings to fawn all over him like that fragile child in the White House does.

Thereās something afoot in Iowa! Second flip of a GOP state seat there this year. Well done!
Iāve never felt safer than when Iām at Mass and in communion with others in the presence of God. That anyone, let alone a child, would ever feel unsafe at Mass is beyond heartbreaking. Words canāt do justice for the pain the families of these children are feeling.

We can't allow ourselves to become numb to mass shootings. What happened today in Minneapolis is heartbreaking, and Michelle and I are praying for the parents who have lost a child or will be sitting at their hospital bedside after yet another act of unspeakable, unnecessary violence.

Thereās plenty of disinformation trying to blame the nascent offshore wind industry for whale deaths without evidence.

The only thing more disgraceful than having groveling cabinet members so willing to debase themselves in this shameless way is having such a damaged, insecure, and needy president that they know desperately needs to hear this BS.

Just a general FYI: I get that the CIA and FBI did some shady and crappy things in the 50s-80s. But if you are using those examples as referents for their (legal) powers *now,* you are showing your ignorance of some major constraints that were placed on them by Congress*
I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees. No refugee underfunded a school. No refugee closed a hospital. No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled. We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!
