Don't despair @Saints fans! Sure, we can't run block, or pass block, or pressure the QB, or stop the run, or tackle. And our coach is uninspiring. But at least we have a good QB and 1.5 good receivers!

Twenty years ago we invaded Iraq. The war killed many innocent Iraqis and Americans. It destroyed the oldest Christian populations in the world. It cost over $1 trillion, and turned Iraq into a satellite of Iran. It was an unforced disaster, and I pray that we learn its lessons.

Well done sir.
In an era of great power rivalry, Canada is choosing to be principled and pragmatic. To name reality, to act together, and to build what we claim to believe in.

Crimes against humanity are happening every day in Gaza, in plain view. Nothing justifies such cruelty. Those responsible are morally bankrupt, and they benefit from impunity. This is not the world we want to live in.

Reposting this important story: Almost half of the people currently in ICE custody have neither been convicted of nor charged with any crime. ICE has arrested only 6% of known immigrant murderers. Striking report by @JuliaEAinsley and @strickdc nbcnews.com/politics/nationa…

A child dies of malnutrition every 15 seconds, as 185,535 boxes of special food for starving children are stacked in a warehouse in Rhode Island, paid for by American taxpayers. After shutting USAID, the Trump administration is just sitting on the boxes. nytimes.com/2025/06/25/opini…

Societal torture.
“Shaken & empty-handed, Abu Jalila walked four hours back to Gaza City, his legs trembling. When he reached the tent, his children were already outside, waiting. “They were hoping I’d bring food,” he said. “I wished I could die rather than see the disappointment in their eyes.””

Happy Juneteenth! Also Happy Birthday to my oldest, Jai.
On Juneteenth, we celebrate freedom and recommit ourselves to the work that remains undone. We remember that even in the darkest hours, there is cause to hope for tomorrow’s light.

Happening now: 1,000 Jews and Palestinians are gathered at the Gaza border, holding photos of Palestinian children killed by Israeli airstrikes and Israeli hostages still held by Hamas—demanding an end to the war and the release of the hostages.
