After the last few years, I had all but forgotten what it's like to have a competent Press Secretary.That was beautifully shut down. She wasn't rude, but was forceful and clear. Masterfully done.
If this were a movie, the White House security that Major bit would be part of a plot to overthrow the government, and everyone would dismiss it except for some kid who would tearfully defend Major as being a Good Boy™ who must have had good reason to bite. In the third act Major would risk his life to save the hero and/or the President.

...President Joe Biden has witnessed an unprecedented growth on Wall Street in his first 100 days in office, better than any of his predecessors going to at least Dwight Eisenhower.
"Biden's first 100 days have already delivered the strongest post-election equity returns in at least 75 years, due to record fiscal stimulus and despite heavy use of Executive Orders," JPMorgan Chase strategist John Normand said in a note.

For years, my mother has said any Democratic economic gains were due to the residual effects of "Reagenomics", so yes, don't expect them to credit Biden for anything.I can't wait to hear the same Republicans who said "You can't give Obama credit for the good economy at the start of Trump's presidency" try to claim that this stock market performance is solely due to Trump.

The Pentagon on Wednesday swept away Trump-era policies that largely banned transgender people from serving in the military, issuing new rules that offer them wider access to medical care and assistance with gender transition. The new department regulations allow transgender people who meet military standards to enlist and serve openly in their self-identified gender, and they will be able to get medically necessary transition-related care authorized by law, chief Pentagon spokesman John Kirby told reporters during a briefing…. The new rules also prohibit discrimination based on gender identity.
I mean, the American Catholic Church has been not agreeing with the Vatican for years.The pope explicitly told them not to and they're doing it anyways. Ladies and gentlemen, I think we got us another schism on our hands.
You might not be Catholic, but you are American.I'm not catholic or anything, but isn't the pope supposed to be the direct line to God? So, if you're catholic, and disagree with the pope, shouldn't that trigger some kind of soul-searching to understand why you disagree with God?
Only if he speaks ex cathedra.I'm not catholic or anything, but isn't the pope supposed to be the direct line to God? So, if you're catholic, and disagree with the pope, shouldn't that trigger some kind of soul-searching to understand why you disagree with God?
Well, it certainly wouldn't be the first time.I'm not catholic or anything, but isn't the pope supposed to be the direct line to God? So, if you're catholic, and disagree with the pope, shouldn't that trigger some kind of soul-searching to understand why you disagree with God?
