So perpetrators of sexual "exploitation or misconduct" count as victims who deserve to have their names redacted. Got it.

Six years after pandemic outbreak, we're hearing, "Better than getting vaccinated, to not get a serious case of Covid, would have been to naturally get infected with a serious case of Covid. That way you wouldn't be susceptible to catching Covid." Can you even hear yourself?

MAGA: Covid was a mild version of the flu, hardly hurt anybody, unlike the Deadly vaccine Fauci made us take. Also MAGA: Fauci secretly created Covid in a Chinese lab, an evil plan to slay millions of people. Get your story straight, guys.

To say nothing of the disasters of the sixth century that may have cut the population of the Empire in half: the first big outbreak of the Black Death in Europe, plus "years without a summer" (volcanic dust blocks sun). Economy tanks, trade routes disintegrate, cities shrink.

So now Haitians are being sent back to Haiti, even more dangerous than when they fled for their lives. What about their US-citizen children, born here? Either the children are left here as orphans, or they go with their parents, and US-citizen children will die. Trump says Fine.

Democrats are wondering whether to emphasize the horrors of Trump or kitchen table issues in midterms. Do both! "Candidate XYZ supports Trump's tariffs & wars that skyrocket your gas & food & housing prices and agrees with him as he takes your Medicaid/Medicare & SNAP & reproductive rights."

Those claiming we have a Uniparty are just not paying attention. Only one party wants to cut: Reproductive care Food security Access to health care Agencies to assure safe food Ability to read what we want Ability to love who we want Wilderness & clean air/water Hint: the party's name begins with R

Back in print after 30 years! "Count Scar," an epic historical fantasy, set in an alternate version of southern France in the 13th century, with working magic. Betrayal, heresy, finding friends where never expected, and occasional sword fights. www.amazon.com/dp/B0HBJLT79B

The Pentagon has suddenly changed the number of fallen American soldiers in the Iran war from 18 to 14. Are they still alive? Of course not. Rather the Pentagon claims the war is already over! so they can't have died in it. What a slap at the soldiers & their families.

MAGAs still won't accept Obama's perfectly valid birth certificate showing he was born in Hawaii. Does this mean that, if the SAVE act passes (requiring a birth certificate to vote), they won't accept the birth certificates of anyone whose skin isn't "white enough"?

When the best argument the @GOP has for the SAVE act is the totally absurd claim that you need Real-ID to eat spaghetti at Olive Garden, you know they realize there's no good argument for the SAVE act.

I can't be the only one who feels this way. The ultimate horror movie: "Let's take him to the torture chamber and Make Him Balance His Checkbook!"

Forests, we treat them as a place to go hiking or engage in "forest bathing" (which I've been informed doesn't require removing all one's clothes). How did medieval people see forests? cdalebrittain.blogspot.com/2026/07/forest-primeval.html

Forest PrimevalEurope and North America don't have a lot of old growth forest anymore, for the simple reason that humans have cut it down.  It is said tha...cdalebrittain.blogspot.com

The European Middle Ages is still highly influential today. People even claim the period as an excuse to advocate white Christian nationalism. But does that work? And why are lumpy purple vegetables called "egg" plant? www.amazon.com/dp/B0H4S5867Y

Obama left office nearly ten years ago. Trump has been president for six of those ten years. So why is everything Obama's fault?

Marco Rubio is champing at the bit to invade Cuba. Cuba has no military or defenses to speak of, nothing to bomb, so it would be "boots on the ground." I'm sure civilians would shoot at our soldiers. And for what? Sixty-five years of Communist Cuba hasn't hurt us at all.

So now that it's been made (sort of) clear to Trump that the only non-rigged elections recently were those run by Obama & Biden (2016 & 2024), whereas when his guys ran an election it was totally fraudulent, might he finally shut up about 2020? Nice thought but nah.

According to @NPR Marco Rubio is claiming "radical left" groups in the US (like "antifa") are being funded and assisted by Cuba. This would be laughable if it didn't mean he's planning on turning Hegseth on Cuba once the Iran war calms down.

What do Americans want? Americans' answer: Lower gas & grocery prices, affordable health care, no wars, a decent place to live, good schools. Trump's answer: WH ballroom, "Arc de Trump," a reflecting pool, pardons for insurrectionists, a golden statue of ME.
