I know there a lot of view here about what we give to Ukraine we take away here - that’s utter bullshit.

In the fifth year
of the pandemic
it’s too much to expect anyone
to sacrifice their holiday plans
for the sake of personal safety
or to help stop the virus’s spread
in the fifth year
of the pandemic
we are done making
personal sacrifices
instead we prefer
to sacrifice each other.

Your job is not to defeat the Nazi in the marketplace of ideas. We already did that. Your job is not to persuade them, or convert them, that comes later, and is on their heads. Your job is to make them afraid. Afraid to be a Nazi in public. To speak Nazi. To do Nazi things. —Make Nazis afraid again.

Law?

I'm just a bill.
Yes, I'm only a bill.
And I'm sitting here on Capitol Hill.

Montgomery Bus Boycott Ends

The 381 day Montgomery, Alabama bus boycott ended on December 20, 1956. The boycott started on December 5, 1955, four days after Rosa Parks was arrested for refusing to give up her seat to a white rider on a bus in Montgomery. The Montgomery Bus Boycott was a major civil rights boycott in the United States. African Americans boycotted the bus system in Montgomery to protest the segregated buses.

In America, you have the right to be a Christian, a Jew, a Muslim, a Hindu, a Buddhist, a Sikh, a Taoist, a Shintoist, a Confucianist, a Satanist, or an Atheist.

No one is more or less important than the other.

That’s called freedom of religion.

It’s pretty simple.
