In its simplest terms, the apparent demise of #USAID is the result of the world's richest man ending a program that helps millions of poor people. You don't need a Ph.D. in moral theology to see why this is an evil. You can just read Jesus's parables on the rich and the poor.

LOVE this

Never forget.

The real muscle behind Trump’s “populist” movement is the moneyed class — wealthy heiresses, tech bros, and crypto kings. They influence policy to favor the rich, and tell voters that immigrants and DEI have caused their economic plight. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/20/us/politics/rockbridge-tr…

This. In case you *wondered* who will benefit.

Experimenting with the whipped feta and cranberry sauce dip. Made the cranberry sauce myself. Used maple syrup rather than sugar. It’s tart, savory, sweet and the pistachios give it a nice crunch. The wife approves, best of all!!

First day on Blue Sky. Sweet baby Jesus in the manger. Who do I find? PopeHat. Kevin M. Kruse. Jonathan Katz. Jamelle Bouie. And DARTH!

Tonight’s dinner: steak, roasted fingerling potatoes and asparagus. Yum!
