Hey, News Outlets! How about just ignoring Donald Trump? It will drive him crazy. His parents never gave him enough attention, so he is still a thirsty brat who needs CONSTANT attention. Start the news with "Trump lied again today" and then move on to news about people/things that are interesting.

Republicans' Sales Pitch for the Midterms: "All your problems were created by another dude three or four years ago, which we are 100% incapable of fixing now, but will magically disappear a day after the midterms. Trust us that this will happen. Oh, also trust us on getting $5,000 we don't have!"

The Founders didn’t build America around one religion. They knew government had no business deciding who was “American enough” based on faith. That wasn’t a footnote to the founding—it was part of the bargain. In 2026, we really shouldn’t need the reminder. Yet here we are. Share it. #Midterm2026

The Founders were more familiar with Islam than many people realize. They knew about powerful Muslim empires and states, discussed Muslims in debates over religious freedom, and lived in a society where enslaved African Muslims were present. They shared the prejudices of their time. But some also imagined a country where rights would not depend on religion, and where Muslims, Jews, Hindus, Christians, and others could, at least in theory, have a place in ordinary public life.1. George Washington “If they are good workmen, they may be of Asia, Africa, or Europe. They may be Mahometans, Jews, Christians of any sect, or they may be Atheists.” 2. Thomas Jefferson “Our civil rights have no dependence on our religious opinions, any more than our opinions in physics or geometry.” 3. Benjamin Franklin “Even if the Mufti of Constantinople were to send a missionary to preach Mahometanism to us, he would find a pulpit at his service.” 4. Richard Henry Lee “True freedom embraces the Mahomitan and the Gentoo (Hindu) as well as the Christian religion.” 5. James Iredell “It is objected that pagans and Mahometans may be admitted into offices. But how is it possible to exclude any set of men, without taking away that principle of religious freedom which we ourselves so warmly contend for?”
