A stair turret flanked by fine 3-light pointed Perpendicular windows, the turret windows a later addition. The stairs lead from the south aisle to the top of the C15 screen. It might be supposed that the screen once supported a rood group

This is in Washington State. We aren’t getting the brunt of the rain, yet. On Monday the waterfalls, normally associated with snow melt, were active at Cape Horn in the Slocan Valley.

For your #WaterfallWednesday one of my favorite waterfalls along Staircase Road,
#staircaserapids #olympicnationalpark The #beargulchfire indefinitely closed the road into this area. I don't know if this waterfall exists anymore. May you appreciate Nature’s poetry wherever you are. #PoetryOfNature

Mpls Mayor Jacob Frey: "What we are seeing again & again is discrimination only to the extent that it applies to certain groups. So they're discriminating only as it applies to Latinos and Somalis ... you can't do that. You can't do that in Minneapolis. You can't do there anywhere in this country."

MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”

I’ve been through a lot worse than anything Donald Trump or Pete Hegseth can throw at me. And I'm not backing down, because this isn't about me — it's about you and every American's First Amendment right.

Bass: We had an important victory today from the courts. The court determined what we knew all along: we do not need National Guard troops in our city. We didn’t need them in June, and we certainly don’t need them in December. I’m glad a decision was made saying the president is out of line

🚨This woman was driving to work in Chicago when a double tented suburban swerved into her vehicle. She was pulled from her vehicle and thrown into their vehicle, “beaten, bloodied, and barefoot.” She is a United States citizen. 1/2

Calling the press “fake news” is harmful. Calling them “seditious, perhaps even treasonous” for publishing reporting is something else entirely. Treason is a capital crime. Suggesting journalists should face it for exercising their First Amendment rights and doing their jobs is dangerous.

In January, the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services will roll out a pilot program that will use AI to review Medicare patients' requests for care.
Insurers will get rewarded when they deny care.
What could go wrong?

Brain swelling, which necessitates regular MRI’s, and tiredness are main side effects of the Alzheimer’s drug Leqembi, administered intravenously through the hand. — So, is Trump secretly taking Alzheimer’s medication?

This new Politico poll should stop us all in our tracks!
50% of Americans are struggling to afford groceries, let’s start there. Then add the fact that we have a president who thinks we’re lying about it.
I’m just waiting for the next poll that asks, “Does the president care about people like me?”
