Steve Osunsami and Sean Keane,  Reporters  -  abc News

Stephan:

_Something very interesting and important is happening to religion. As this report says, “In the late 1940s, nearly 80% of Americans said they belonged to a church, synagogue, mosque or temple, according to Gallup. Today, just 45% say the same, the analytics company noted, and only 32% say that they worship God in a house of prayer once a week.” What I see i … ⌘ Read more

‘Concentration Camps’: Border Czar Says Trump to Detain Migrant Families
Jessica Corbett,  Staff Writer  -  Common Dreams

_Stephan: Tom Homan looks like a thug and, I suspect, has been chosen by Trump because he has no qualms about behaving like one. I fear that on 21 January Homan will start the trend Trump has constantly promised, and that it is going to provoke a civil uprising in Blue states and in Red states it may become so intense that, as in the K … ⌘ Read more

Top 10 Surprising Facts from the Life of Jimmy Carter
Few U.S. politicians have led a life as unlikely as Jimmy Carter (October 1, 1924–December 29, 2024).
