The Katherine Massey Book Club @ The C.O.W.S. hosts the 8th study session on Gregg Olsen's If You Loving You Is Wrong, which investigates the criminal, Tragic Arrangement between White Puget Sound schoolteacher Mary Kay Letourneau and her 12-year-old non-white student, Vili Fualaau. When speaking with the late Neely Fuller Jr. many years ago about why it's incorrect for White people to engage in sexual activity with non-white people, he cited the Letourneau case. The founder of counter-racism science knew all the tacky details of this case and how it corroborates his counter-racist code, which prohibits sexual activity between White and non-white people. Last week, we learned how the local Seattle news media further exploited Vili Fualaau and abused a child. Karen O'Leary, a blond White Woman like Mary Kay, got her film crew down to White Center to get an exclusive interview with young Vili. No one got permission from his mother and he had no legal representation. We learn about the random "groupies" who came to support Mary Kay - and insist she did nothing wrong. Her former students compared Mary Kay to South African freedom fighter and prisoner Nelson Mandela. Many listeners wonder why Vili is consistently referred to as "the (brown) boy." #ChildRape INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: http://cash.app/$TheCOWS Call: 720.716.7300 Code: 564943#

Ever find yourself lying in bed at night, replaying every parenting moment that went sideways that day? Yeah, me too. For years, I would literally drown in a sea of regret, beating myself up for every time I lost my cool, lectured instead of listened, or just plain missed the mark with my kids. But here's what I've learned: regret can either be your biggest parenting enemy or your secret weapon. The difference? How you use it. What We're Diving Into Today

What does it take to serve with humility, break barriers, and represent your country on the world stage all while living with a disability?In this episode, we meet Ovid Jackson: born on the banks of Berbice, Guyana, a top student invited to England in 1958, a national basketball player for Guyana, and later an immigrant to Canada who lost his right eye just months after arriving.Instead of stepping back, Ovid stepped up, becoming Owen Sound's first Black mayor, the first Liberal in a century to win Bruce–Grey, and representing Canada as an election monitor in South Africa during Nelson Mandela's 1994 victory and in Palestine. He stood shoulder-to-shoulder with Walkerton during its water crisis and chaired critical airport security talks after 9/11.Ovid shares the philosophy that guided him: “I see people as people. We waste too much energy being at odds with each other.” He reflects on a lifetime of leadership without ego. This is more than one man's story; it's a portrait of the Canada we've been, and the Canada we can be again.#OvidJackson #QuietWarrior #CanadianHistory #OrderOfCanada #BlackHistoryCanada #PublicService #LeadershipWithoutEgo #CanadaPolitics #OwenSound #BruceGrey #CommunityBuilder #SouthAfrica1994 #ElectionMonitor #WalkertonWaterCrisis #Post911Security #DiversityInLeadership #InspiringCanadians #CanadianPodcast #CanadianStories #LeadershipMatters

Don't Give Up: Hope in Bleak TimesBismillah.The past few weeks have been incredibly difficult for the Ummah — especially for our brothers and sisters in Gaza.And it's not just these few weeks. It's been 23 months. Almost two years of relentless destruction. Every time we think we've seen the worst, we're proven wrong. Every time we think we've hit rock bottom, Israel and the powers that support her prove that evil has no limit.We are now witnessing full-blown famine. Starvation. Infants with nothing between their skin and bones. And on top of that — we hear of America burning 500 tonnes of food rather than allowing it to reach Palestine.At times like this, it's tempting to throw in the towel. To say:“We've done everything we can.”“We've shouted, we've protested, we've boycotted, we've flooded social media.”And yet, the powers that be… remain.But when that sense of despair starts creeping in, we must pause. We must take a step back and remember:We are looking through the lens of our short lives.We live 60, 70 years — maybe 50 as adults — and from that narrow perspective, it feels like there's no hope. But history tells a different story. When we zoom out, we see a sunnah of Allah unfold:Evil never wins in the end.No matter how powerful. Fir'aun claimed he was God Most High — Allah destroyed him. Yet many lived and died under his tyranny and may have thought:“Where is Allah's help?”“Where is our du‘a?”Allah addresses this feeling directly in the Qur'an — in the verse I opened with. He speaks of previous nations, believers who were so shaken by hardship that even their Prophets asked, “When will the help of Allah come?”And Allah replies:“Indeed, the help of Allah is near.”But near from whose perspective? Not always ours.That's why in Surah Ibrahim, Allah reminds us:“Do not think that Allah is unaware of the actions of the oppressors. He is merely delaying them for a Day when eyes will stare in horror.”We are people of hope. We do not despair when times get tough. And in this brief khutbah, I want to share three points in history to remind us: we carry the torch of hope.1. The Trench in the Cold of MedinaYear 5 after Hijrah.The Battle of the Trench.After the losses at Uhud, Quraysh saw an opportunity to wipe out Islam. They gathered the largest army Arabia had ever seen: 10,000 strong. They were backed by Banu Ghatafan from the north, and allied with Jews from Khaybar, including Banu Qurayzah from within Medina.Rasulullah ﷺ had only 3,000 companions to defend the city. It was winter. The Sahaba were hungry, cold, and exhausted. Salman al-Farisi suggested digging a trench — a Persian military tactic. And they did. Day and night. Starving, shivering, digging non-stop.Then they hit a boulder they couldn't break. They called the Prophet ﷺ. He struck it once — a spark flew.“Allahu Akbar!” he cried.A second strike — another spark.“Allahu Akbar!”Third strike — the boulder shattered.“Allahu Akbar!”The companions asked: What was the takbir about?Rasulullah ﷺ said:* With the first spark, I saw Persia falling to the Muslims.* With the second, Rome.* With the third, Yemen.In the darkest moment, he gave them light. He gave them vision.He didn't just say “Have hope.”He gave them reasons to hope.And history proved him right. Islam triumphed. Not through numbers, but through divine help — a storm that forced the enemy to retreat. A month-long siege broken without a single full-scale battle.2. The Fall of Baghdad (1258 CE)Hulagu Khan — grandson of Genghis Khan — invaded Baghdad.Within days, 800,000 were slaughtered.Libraries burned. Books tossed into the Tigris until the river ran black with ink.Muslim writers thought it was the end of time.Non-Muslim historians wrote:“This is the day Islam died.”But Islam didn't die.Baghdad fell, but Cairo rose. So did Damascus. The Delhi Sultanate grew. And from these ashes, the Ottomans would eventually rise.Even Hulagu's cousin, Berke Khan, accepted Islam.Within a generation, the very dynasty that destroyed Baghdad became a Muslim dynasty.And amidst all of this — scholars kept working.* Imam al-Nawawi, who focused on preserving and teaching knowledge.* Ibn Taymiyyah, the scholar-warrior.* Ibn Ata'illah, who focused on tazkiyah and purifying hearts.* Al-‘Izz ibn ‘Abd al-Salam, who spoke truth to power and engaged with the rulers .Despite the devastation, they didn't stop. They carried on.3. The Fall of Apartheid (1994)From 1948 — the same year Israel was created — South Africa began enforcing apartheid. For decades, the people resisted: boycotts, protests, global pressure.In 1994, apartheid fell.The same Nelson Mandela who was once branded a terrorist by the West was now hailed as a hero — by the very same powers that had supported the apartheid regime.Let that sink in.The same powers that supported apartheid in South Africa are the ones supporting apartheid in Palestine today.And just like before — they can be defeated.Social Media: Double-Edged SwordToday, we have a powerful tool: social media. It's helped shift global opinion. It's brought awareness.But it's also draining us.We doomscroll.We see starvation, death, suffering — again and again.Two things happen:* We either fall into despair…* Or we become numb.We start thinking this is normal.So yes — use social media, but set a limit. 15 minutes. Half an hour. Post, share, amplify — and then get back to work. Real work.Know Your Role, Play Your PartNot all resistance looks the same.Imam al-Nawawi didn't fight with swords. He wrote books that still strengthen the Ummah today.Ibn Taymiyyah led at the frontlines.Ibn Ata'illah focused on hearts.Al-‘Izz ibn ‘Abd al-Salam engaged with the rulers.Some of us are better behind the scenes. Some are activists, some are scholars, some are thinkers, some are organisers. Some are better on the mic, others behind a pen.Don't judge someone's contribution just because it's not the same as yours. We need all hands on deck.“Allah will not ask you about what you couldn't do — but He will ask what you did with what you could.”May Allah give victory to the oppressed.May He feed the hungry, clothe the exposed, and strengthen the weak.May He unite our ranks and guide our efforts.May He grant us clarity, discipline, and sincere hearts in service of this Ummah.

Begin 1990 gebeurde in Zuid-Afrika het ongelofelijke: na 27 jaar gevangenschap kwam Nelson Mandela, de wereldwijde leider van het verzet tegen de apartheid, eindelijk vrij. Beelden van hem gingen de wereld over, zijn partij het ANC werd gelegaliseerd en het apartheidsbewind in Zuid-Afrika kwam ten val. In onze zomerserie 'Ooggetuigen' duikt Coen Verbraak met betrokkenen terug in de tijd van toen. Want al snel na zijn vrijlating, en later ook als de eerste zwarte president van Zuid-Afrika, bracht hij bezoeken aan Amsterdam, de stad die hij als bastion van het verzet tegen de apartheid zag. Wat is er nog over van die energie van toen? En is de wereld van nu echt bevrijd van het systeem dat Mandela al die jaren gevangenhield?

In the mid-90s, Hansie Cronje was South Africa's golden boy, the God-fearing captain backed by Nelson Mandela and worshipped by a nation. More than just a cricketer, he was a symbol of hope.But were the cracks there all along? In the first episode of Sport's Strangest Crimes - Hansie Cronje: Fall From Grace, former England cricketer, Mark Butcher revisits the rise of a man who seemed too good to be true and maybe was. Teammates, journalists and friends paint a picture of a leader everyone trusted… until they didn't. Because before you fall from grace, you've got to be on a pedestal.

“Trust Is An Output, Not An Input” Join me and my guest David Lapin, founder of Lapin International(lapininternational.com). David is a recognized global thought leader in leadership, culture, and business transformation, and the author of Lead by Greatness. Raised in apartheid-era South Africa, David helped draft one of the world's first corporate ethics codes in collaboration with Nelson Mandela's government - an experience that continues to shape his values-based approach to leadership today. In this conversation, David and I explore the profound connection between business, relationships, and the essence of service.  SHOW NOTES SPONSORED BY: Power of You! Summary In this engaging conversation, Blaine and David Lapin explore the concept of the 'soul of business,' delving into the importance of ethics, leadership, and the cultivation of corporate identity. They discuss the evolution of business ethics, the role of leadership in aligning purpose and culture, and the innovative digital tools that can enhance leadership development. The dialogue emphasizes the interconnectedness of business and relationships, framing business as a platform for character development and ethical growth. In this conversation, David Lapin and Blaine explore the profound connection between business, relationships, and the essence of service. They discuss the importance of focusing on others' prosperity in business, the interplay between body and soul in leadership, and the concept of the leadership fingerprint as a tool for self-discovery. The dialogue emphasizes authenticity, trust, and self-awareness as critical components of effective leadership, highlighting how vulnerability and generosity can foster deeper connections and inspire change. Takeaways The essence of a company is its corporate soul. Business ethics were once seen as an oxymoron. The importance of ethics in business has evolved over time. The soul of a business needs to be cultivated and uncovered. Leadership is about aligning identity, purpose, and culture. Business serves as a gym for developing character and soul. The digital fingerprint tool enhances leadership development. Compassionate capitalism focuses on thriving rather than just profit. Connection is fundamental to understanding business ethics. The leader's ego can impact the soul of the business. Business and relationships develop the muscle of service. Leaders should focus on the prosperity of others. Service is inherent to our existence; we choose who to serve. Profits are a measure of how well we provide valuable service. The connection between body and soul is vital for leaders. Heroic actions involve putting others before oneself. The leadership fingerprint maps individual values and moral philosophy. Authenticity in leadership is about being your best self. Trust is built through humility, vulnerability, and generosity. Self-awareness is crucial for understanding how we impact others. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Hansie Cronje had it all — captain of South Africa, adored by a nation, trusted by Nelson Mandela. A symbol of hope in the post-apartheid era. Then came the Centurion Test: a rain-ruined match is suddenly back on, thanks to a strange decision by Hansie. At first, it looks like good sportsmanship — until a wiretap in India catches something shocking. What unfolds next will change cricket forever. In Sport's Strangest Crimes - Hansie Cronje: Fall From Grace, former England cricketer Mark Butcher traces the rise and collapse of a national hero — from quiet warning signs and secret phone calls to a dramatic confession and a televised inquiry. But even as Hansie admits to more than just Centurion, many believe the investigation didn't go far enough. Sixty-three offshore bank accounts are discovered. Links to other players emerge. And just as pressure builds for a deeper probe — Hansie dies in a plane crash. Some say pilot error. Others aren't so sure. Was Hansie manipulated by a powerful network of fixers? Or was he the one pulling the strings? With testimony from teammates, journalists, investigators and those who knew him best, Mark unpacks a story of power, money, and the dark side of sport. More than two decades on, people are still asking: who was the real Hansie Cronje?

2005 – Twenty Years OnNext Monday one of the most historic and transformative events in the Irish Peace Process took place. Twenty years ago on the 28 July 2005 the IRA issued a statement which ended its decades long armed struggle. In its statement the IRA said: "The leadership of Óglaigh na hÉireann has formally ordered an end to the armed campaign. This will take effect from 4pm this afternoon.  All IRA units have been ordered to dump arms. All Volunteers have been instructed to assist the development of purely political and democratic programmes through exclusively peaceful means. Volunteers must not engage in any other activities whatsoever.”The IRA leadership also said that it had authorised its representative to engage with the IICD (Independent International Commission on Decommissioning) to “complete the process to verifiably put its arms beyond use in a way which will further enhance public confidence.” This was confirmed two months later on the 26 September by the Commission.The IRA initiative opened up opportunities for progress.Peace processes are by their very nature challenging and difficult. They frequently fail. Many of the wars of the 1960s and 70's were a response to the colonial occupation and exploitation of native peoples by colonial powers.  Africa saw many examples of these. Some conflicts went on into the 1980s and 90s. Algeria, Kenya, Zimbabwe (then Rhodesia), Angola, Mozambique, and others, including in Asia the Vietnam War and in the Middle East the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories. The South African peace process brought an end to apartheid and witnessed the election of Nelson Mandela as President of that country in 1994. In our own place our peace process brought an end to decades of conflict and heralded processes of change.Today, in a world still bedevilled by wars, the Irish Peace Process is frequently held up internationally as an example of a peace process that is working.  The governments occasionally try to root it in the Anglo-Irish Agreement of 1985. But the truth is that it started in the 1970s when Republicans began to claim back the word ‘Peace.'A Welcome Electoral ChangeThe decision, announced last week by the British government, that it will be lowering the voting age to those aged 16 and 17, is a welcome move. There is already widespread support for a reduction in the voting age. Last September the Assembly backed a Sinn Féin motion calling for this change. In the South the policy has received widespread cross-party support from Sinn Féin, Fine Gael, Fianna Fáil, The Green Party, The Labour Party, Social Democrats, People Before Profit, and many Independents.The London government is focussed on the 2029 Westminster election but the North will have local government and Assembly elections in 2027. The focus now must be on ensuring that the necessary legislative steps are taken to ensure that 16 and 17 year olds can vote in those elections.Updating the electoral register and ensuring that this new tranche of young voters have suitable identification, will be a big job of work but with political will it can be done. It would also send entirely the wrong message to future voters if the 2027 deadline is missed.Legislating for young people to have the right to vote is the right thing to do. All parties in the North, with the exception of the DUP, support changing the voting rules. Young people should have the right to vote on decisions that impact on their lives, including voting for a united Ireland.Gaels le Cheile In Conversation with Peter CanavanMonday 28th July, 7:30pm - Naomh Eoin CLG Corrigan Park

The Mandela Effect, named by paranormal researcher Fiona Broome in 2010, refers to collective false memories where groups misremember events or details, like Nelson Mandela dying in the 1980s (he died in 2013). Psychological studies, such as Loftus and Palmer's 1974 experiments, demonstrate how language can distort memories, while Broome suggests alternate realities or timeline shifts as causes, though these lack scientific support. Examples include misremembering the Berenstain Bears as “Berenstein,” Monopoly's Rich Uncle Pennybags with a monocle, or Darth Vader saying “Luke, I am your father” instead of “No, I am your father.” Historical cases involve myths like Columbus discovering the Americas first or Vikings wearing horned helmets. The International Mandela Effect Conference (IMEC) explores quantum theory connections, but psychological factors like memory fallibility and social influence are more accepted. While the phenomenon sparks curiosity about human memory, it can also foster distrust in reality, fuel conspiracies, and highlight cognitive fragility, potentially undermining shared historical truths.   Sources: International Mandela Effect Conference | quantum physics | 322 E Main St, Branford, CT 06405, USA.

It's Thursday, June 26th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Iranian Christians vulnerable to arrest, falsely accused of espionage Christians in Israel and Iran are experiencing fear and uncertainty during recent conflict between the two countries. Christians already face arrest in Iran for simply leading a house church. An Iranian believer told International Christian Concern, “The Iranian government is now arresting anyone caught taking or sharing photos and videos with news outlets. Christians are especially vulnerable, as they risk being accused of espionage and deemed a threat to national security. If their faith is discovered, the consequences are far worse.” Iran is ranked ninth on the Open Doors' World Watch List of the most difficult countries to be a Christian.  Hebrews 13:3 says, “Remember the prisoners as if chained with them—those who are mistreated—since you yourselves are in the body also.” ICE arrested 11 Iranian nationals, one served as Iranian army sniper U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested 11 Iranian nationals over the weekend. The individuals entered the U.S. illegally, and one of them reportedly served as an Iranian Army sniper.  Officials are on high alert for extremist attacks after the U.S. bombed Iranian nuclear facilities on Saturday. Iran has threatened to carry out retaliatory terrorist attacks using sleeper cells in America.  Trump thrilled that NATO paying their fair share The NATO military alliance of western nations held its 2025 summit in the Netherlands this week. NATO countries agreed to raise defense spending to 5% of annual gross domestic product over the next 10 years. That's up from the current target of 2%. This comes after U.S. President Donald Trump has called on European countries to contribute more to the defense budget of the alliance. Listen to comments from Trump. TRUMP: “This is a monumental win for the United States, because we were carrying much more than our fair share. It was quite unfair, actually. But this is a big win for Europe and for actually, Western civilization.” Muslim socialist beat Andrew Cuomo in NYC Dem primary for mayor A Muslim socialist won the Democrat primary for New York City mayor on Tuesday. Remarkably, Zohran Mamdani, age 33, defeated former Democratic Governor Andrew Cuomo in the race. (Watch his election night victory speech) MAMDANI: “Tonight, we made history. (cheering) In the words of Nelson Mandela, ‘It always seems impossible until it is done.' (cheering)  My friends, we have done it. (cheering) I will be your Democratic nominee for the mayor of New York City.” (cheering)   Mamdani has served as a New York state lawmaker. He campaigned on making the Big Apple more affordable, calling for free public transit, rent freezes, and universal childcare. If elected, he would be the city's first Muslim mayor.  President Trump sounded off on Truth Social. He wrote, “Zohran Mamdani, a 100% Communist Lunatic, has just won the Dem Primary, and is on his way to becoming Mayor. We've had Radical Lefties before, but this is getting a little ridiculous. … He's got [U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez]. … and even our Great Palestinian Senator, Cryin' Chuck Schumer, ,,, groveling over him.” Two-thirds of churchgoers attend weekly The Exploring the Pandemic Impact on Congregations project released a new report on U.S. churchgoers this month. The survey found two-thirds of respondents attend services weekly. And over 80% report stable or increased attendance compared to five years ago.  The survey noted a positive outlook: “Many more respondents said their religious faith and spirituality had strengthened since the pandemic. Likewise, financial giving has increased, as has involvement and volunteering.” In terms of newcomers, 38% of churchgoers began attending their church since the COVID-19 pandemic. Of these new attenders, nearly a third never attended church before or are returning to church after years of not participating.  Astronauts from India, Poland and Hungary head to Int'l Space Station Astronauts from India, Poland, and Hungary blasted off for the International Space Station yesterday. It's the first time astronauts from those countries have gone to space in over 40 years. Axiom Space arranged the flight which launched from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida.  The mission is part of NASA's effort to open space to private companies. Axiom is among several American space companies hoping to put their own space stations into orbit. The Polish astronaut on the mission said space “is not only for the biggest agencies anymore—space is for everyone.” Psalm 8:3-4 reminds us, “When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have ordained, what is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of man that You visit him?” 8 Worldview listeners gave $3,375  to fund our annual budget And finally, toward our $123,500 goal by Monday, June 30th to fully fund The Worldview annual budget for our 6-member team, 8 listeners stepped up to the plate.

Send us a textA voice rises from Nigeria's capital, speaking directly to a nation in pain. Amidst the horrific killings in Benue State, this heartfelt message confronts the deafening silence surrounding the violence while offering a counterintuitive path forward. The speaker, deeply connected to Benue through colleagues and friends, wrestles openly with the tension between justice and peace.Drawing from Nelson Mandela's extraordinary example of forgiveness after 27 years of imprisonment, the talk explores what it means to pursue peace when vengeance feels justified. "How do you say I should pray for somebody who is killing me?" the speaker asks, acknowledging the difficulty while still pointing toward this radical response as "the height of true power." Rather than looking to failed political leadership, listeners are encouraged to mobilize "the force of peace" through spiritual resources.The most powerful moment comes when comparing the bloodshed in Benue to Christ's sacrifice: "Jesus was killed, but his blood cried salvation." This reimagining of violence not as a call for revenge but as a catalyst for redemption offers a profound alternative narrative. As the message concludes with reference to a unifying song by Nigerian artists Giz Baba and Loris Oyo, we're reminded that even amid tragedy, the Nigerian spirit of resilience remains unbroken. "We will not turn back now," becomes both promise and defiance—choosing hope when despair would be easier. For anyone struggling to find light in darkness, this message offers a challenging yet deeply human response to suffering.Support the showYou can support this show via the link below;https://www.buzzsprout.com/1718587/supporters/new

In his powerful message Since Freedom, Pastor David Osborne explores Romans 6:14 and challenges us to truly live like people who have been set free by God's grace. Drawing from both Scripture and the wisdom of Nelson Mandela, Pastor David reminds us that freedom isn't the end—it's the beginning of a new way of life. Since we've been freed from the dominion of sin, we are no longer slaves to our old nature. We've died with Christ and now live with Him, called to walk in righteousness and use every part of our lives for God's glory. Freedom means more than casting off chains—it means choosing a path of holiness, transformation, and obedience. This message calls every believer to step into the power of grace and live like sin no longer has control—because it doesn't.

En el año 1995, durante un acto de reconciliación en Sudáfrica, Nelson Mandela invitó a su carcelero a sentarse en primera fila de su toma de posesión como presidente. Al final del evento, lo abrazó públicamente. Aquel hombre había sido parte del sistema que lo oprimió por 27 años. Sin embargo, Mandela eligió perdonar. Su gesto no fue solo político, fue espiritual. “El odio es una prisión”, declaró. “El perdón es libertad”. De la misma manera, el perdón no se basa en la justicia humana, sino en la gracia divina. El Señor Jesús perdonó desde la cruz. No esperó que lo merecieran. No exigió explicación. Simplemente amó. Cuando decides perdonar, no estás excusando el mal, sino eligiendo vivir libre del peso que te encadena. No solo bendices al otro, sanas tu propio corazón. Por lo tanto, si llevas una carga de rencor, permite que Dios te libere. Tal vez el acto más poderoso que hagas esta semana no sea predicar, sino perdonar. La Biblia dice en Colosenses 3:13: “...soportándoos unos a otros, y perdonándoos unos a otros... De la manera que Cristo os perdonó, así también hacedlo vosotros” (RV1960).

The Trump administration's 10 percent universal tariff and additional targeted duties on over 60 countries were announced on April 2 and went into effect on April 5. The modest rise in import prices, particularly outside the fuel category, suggests that the duties have not significantly deterred U.S. purchases of foreign-made goods.   The increase in nonfuel goods prices, combined with steady import volumes, may indicate that tariff-related costs are being absorbed without major shifts in buying behavior, at least so far. source: breitbart.com   https://twitter.com/BehizyTweets/status/1923409184030429667    Biden and the Democrats gave us.
