Shame, shame, shame on @nbcsnl. A tiny bit of courage and they could have defied the mob and let this young man have the career he earned. Shame on the @nytimes and on every leftist moral midget who thinks this is okay. https://twitter.com/variety/status/1173689020699873282 …

Too many people in the media cannot seem to tell the difference between reporting the news and creating propaganda.

And a via a correspondant:
> The poor have been rebels but they have never been anarchists. They have got more interest than anyone else in there being some decent government. The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn’t; he can go away to New Guinea on a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have objected to being governed at all. Aristocrats were always anarchists, as you can see from the barons' wars.

Hmmm. Am I being paranoid, or does it seem like these recent attacks on Kavanaugh coincide with Ginsberg's fading health?

Information on Silencing an instance, to help the confusion.
Hi, Qoto! As you know I posted earlier regarding the silencing of the Spinster instance.
I'd like you to know that a Silence is different than a block. A silenced instance will still allow you to follow users on that instance and communicate with them.
However, the instance will not show in your federated timeline.

Andrew Klavan Retweeted:
The right often hits leftists for having no faith in God... but, not coincidentally, they've lost their faith in people too.
The @andrewklavan Show!

After last night's debate—and a full 2.5 years after I published it—"Reasons To Vote For Democrats" is back on the charts as the #1 bestseller in Political Parties and the #2,350 bestselling book overall.
CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH, @TheDemocrats!

The bodies of over 2,000 aborted babies were discovered on the property of an abortionist that Democratic presidential candidate @PeteButtigieg championed and supported.
Unbelievable.

Median income hit record high in 2018 while poverty declined
Median U.S. household income reached $63,200 in 2018, the highest figure on record, new data released Tuesday by the Census Bureau revealed.
California has the highest levels of poverty, with 18.2% of its people, or 7 million, in poverty. This is essentially due to the high cost of living in California versus other states.
