I don't think Center Street is particularly happy with Noem. They issued the following statement on Twitter - At the request of Governor Noem, we are removing a passage regarding Kim Jong Un from her book No Going Back, upon reprint of the print edition and as soon as technically possible on the aud...

One of Noem’s claims is that she met Kim Jong Un and implied she stared him down. Now it’s being said that that was an error in the book. The problem with that… Noem recited the audiobook herself!

My father had various health issues later in life and I heard my sister-in-law, who has a master's degree in immunology, speculate that he may have had leprosy. I didn't have a chance to ask her why she thought that, but Dad spent his first 16 years in Madagascar (missionary parents) so I suppose th...

So... apparently a number of pizzas were delivered earlier. A staffer then walked a couple of the pizzas out to Trump when he arrived so he could be photographed delivering pizzas to the firefights.

The LDS has been more central to American life than Catholics ever were. Oh no. That is SO not true. I never met a Mormon until I moved to Minneapolis. The vast majority of Mormons live in the western United States, primarily in Utah. Overall, Mormons make up about 2% of the U.S. population. https:...

A quick check of stats suggests that the Catholic church is nowhere near as central to American life as it was 50 years ago. At this point I paused, blinked, read it again and burst out laughing. Are you serious? The LDS has been more central to American life than Catholics ever were. In the 50s th...

I saw this tweet on Twitter. The signature of the letter caught my eye -

Troy Nehls has repeatedly claimed to be the recipient of two Bronze...

I'm so glad you got a chance to reconnect with your dad, Foggy.

Since I don't label the amount in the title heading, I just state it, it doesn't matter what I call it later in a post. But it is fun to read the lawyers discussing what to call it.

The title has been updated to $537M.

MN Skeptic, time to update the header in the general Trump thread… Nah, I'll still to the actual legal findings. They're enough. But I probably should increase the $83M fines amount. Does anyone know what the actual amount of fines are right now, excluding interest? I don't want to have to increase...

Contemnors are subject to court sanctions and punishments. If the contemnor is held in civil contempt of court,...
