Way back when, before Ivanka Sr. was the first wife, she was just the wife, Donnie's AM EX card was turned down at KMart. It amazed me then that Donnie even knew what a KMart was, or would be caught shopping there.

LINKNonedecision 2020: 5 Reasons Secular Americans are Poised to become Major Force in US Politics - TheHumanist.com

One of the demographic aspects of the nones (Americans who answer “atheist,” “agnostic,” or “nothing in particular” when asked their religious affiliation) that’s been well covered in the media is how the group’s growth is fueled by young people, particularly those under the age of thirty. What’s not necessarily known is how much younger secular Americans are compared to religious Americans.

LINKAnti-Vaxxers Are Asking People To Stop Calling Them Anti-Vaxxers Because It's "Highly Offensive" | IFLScience

A group of anti-vaxxers is asking the media to stop referring to them as anti-vaxxers (even though that's literally what they are), and people have been less than enthusiastic in accepting their suggested replacement. This week, the anti-vaxxer group Crazymothers (no, we're not even remotely kidding) posted the request to their Twitter and Instagram pages. "Dear Media," the open letter read. "Please retire the use of the term 'Anti-vaxxer.' It is derogatory, inflammatory, and marginalizes...

LINKThe most dangerous place on Earth | The Economist

The test of a first-rate intelligence, wrote F. Scott Fitzgerald, is the ability to hold two opposing ideas in mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function. For decades just such an exercise of high-calibre ambiguity has kept the peace between America and China over Taiwan, an island of 24m people, 100 miles (160km) off China’s coast. Leaders in Beijing say there is only one China, which they run, and that Taiwan is a rebellious part of it. America nods to the one China idea,...

LINKSupreme Court Conservatives Just Made It Easier to Sentence Kids to Life in Prison | The Marshall Project

The new ruling could worsen existing racial disparities in states that condemn teens to die in prison. For years, the Supreme Court sent a consistent message about kids who commit the most serious crimes: They’re still kids. Their bad decisions are often a product of abusive upbringings and still-developing brains. So they can’t be executed. And they can’t get life without parole unless they kill someone — and even then, “all but the rarest of children” deserve a chance at ...

LINKTrump voter in Pennsylvania convicted of voter fraud

In the wake of Donald Trump's defeat six months ago, Republicans launched a desperate search for illegally cast ballots to help justify the GOP's conspiracy theories. But despite all the hysterical rhetoric, only a handful of legitimate allegations have been raised, and some involve Republicans casting illegal ballots for Trump on behalf of dead relatives. Take Bruce Bartman, for example. The Washington Post reported this morning: Weeks before Election Day, Bruce Bartman mailed his ...
