Finally somebody with some damn sense on this platform. Whoever you are my brotha, I appreciate you. 🫵🏿✊🏿🇺🇸😅

So the Pope met with David Axelrod last week. David Axelrod. Obama's campaign architect. A man who is not Catholic, has never met a pope before, and whose entire career has been engineering political narratives for the American left.
And then, by pure coincidence, the Pope immediately started lobbing shots at the Trump administration, and three US Cardinals popped up on 60 Minutes doing the same thing.
All organically, I'm sure.
I'm a practicing Catholic. I need you to understand that part. But in my opinion, Trump has all the right to lash out at him. Maybe you'll disagree, but in the end, Trump talks like Trump. Water is wet. I'm talking about MY Church being run like a DNC satellite office but with a golden throne.
This is the same Vatican that watched governments padlock churches during COVID and said nothing. That let Biden take communion while funding abortion and said nothing. That fired Bishop Strickland for defending actual Church doctrine. That removed Bishop Fernández in Puerto Rico for defending religious exemptions THE CATECHISM ITSELF supports.
But somehow Trump is the threat to human dignity.
Pope Francis was bad. Leo has turned out to be worse. Francis at least was vague about his politics. Leo went and hired the consulting firm.
The man has ignored the slaughter of Christians across Nigeria, the Sahel, India, Syria, Bangladesh, Pakistan. Hundreds of believers murdered, churches burned, pastors kidnapped. His response? Platitudes about dialogue.
OF COURSE he won't even name who's doing the killing.
But he'll fly across continents to make interfaith gestures the week after his people coordinated a media hit on a sitting US president.
The weaponization of belief is obvious. You get the Pope to pick a fight with Trump, and suddenly millions of conservative Catholics have to choose between their faith and their vote.

Well well well… it was acceptable when she said it during her campaign, but unacceptable when Trump is actually carrying it out.
I’d say this didn’t age well, but it’s really just the hypocrisy.

I genuinely don’t understand the appeal of cruises. Being on a massive boat with tiny rooms for a week, with a bunch of strangers, all out in the middle of nowhere with nothing but water around you the whole time. That sounds awful to me.

Last political post for awhile I hope, but this has to be said.
I’m not a Trump supporter and honestly, a lot of people who aren’t Trump supporters are still completely fed up with the far left right now.
Not because of “progress,” or “fairness,” or any of the values they claim to own. It’s because of the behavior: the purity tests, the tribalism, the reflex to label anyone who disagrees, even slightly, as an enemy. One wrong word, one nuanced opinion, one “I don’t fully agree,” and suddenly you’re a fascist, a bigot, or “part of the problem.” That’s not activism. That’s a cult mindset.
Compromise is treated like betrayal. Questions are treated like violence. And “the science” gets invoked like a religious slogan, right up until the data becomes inconvenient, then it’s ignored, reframed, or shouted down. Meanwhile, the same people who demand empathy have none for anyone outside their in-group.
Normal people are exhausted. We want solutions, not moral grandstanding. We want reality, not ideology. And we’re done pretending this kind of insane extremism is “just being passionate.”
Sincerely,
Normal people everywhere

This could be a contender for one of my favorite sport clips of all time. I don’t ever see this getting old.

The teenager bagging groceries today asked if I wanted my bread on top.
I said yes.
He nodded seriously and said, "Good call. Structural integrity is everything."
Then he arranged my bags like he was building a cathedral.
His coworker laughed at him.
But my bread arrived home unpunched, my tomatoes unbrushed.
Sometimes the people who care too much about small things are exactly who we need.

Coco Gauff on the Taylor Townsend & Jelena Ostapenko situation at the U.S. Open:
“I know what was said after the match. I think it was a heat of the moment thing. I think Jelena was probably feeling emotions after she lost. It shouldn’t have been said, regardless of how you’re feeling… Knowing Taylor personally, she’s the opposite of that. She’s one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. Whenever I’ve had a tough moment on court she’s texting me checking in on how I am. I hate to see that maybe this is some of the first people hearing who Taylor Townsend is. I don’t want that to be the main focus of who she is. She’s a lot more than that. She’s a mom. She’s a great friend. A talented tennis player. And a good person. At the end of this tournament I hope people will do a deep dive into her and get to know her more than what was said in the previous match.”

A thought experiment.
Imagine if:
Within the next 89 days, the US, Europe, and Japan agree to go zero/zero on tariffs and remove all trade barriers.
Then Europe and Japan join the US in raising tariffs on China to 145%.
Then the US, Europe and Japan as a united front negotiate with China to remove tariffs and trade barriers, and put in place strong structural protections for IP.
