A Saracen, a Saxon and a Frisian Walk into a Bar: Who are Pope Zachary’s Pagans?
In October 745, Pope Zachary (r. 741-752) sent a letter to the Frankish people. He had been told that a synod had taken place among them, summoned by the Mayors of the Palace, Pippin (d. 768) and C…

Homan tries to walk his words back: "I want to be clear because my words were taken out of context. Physical description cannot be the sole reason to detain and question somebody. That can't be the sole reason to raise reasonable suspicion. It's a myriad of factors."

Blaming DEI for the height of the Guadalupe River flood is a new low. (And another assault on common sense.)

One of the things to think about is that the other camp, pot of gold, was in mid evacuation when their tragedy hit in 1987. In 1987, the floodwaters never got near the Mystic cabins. They did cut part of the camp off from the other part. I would have stayed put with that history, too.
When you live somewhere and disaster strikes, it makes no sense to pretend it isn’t personal. For me, there’s no other way to process terrible things than to make journalism. To my friends from home who went to Camp Mystic and Heart O' the Hills — this is for you.
