My big time poetry promotion has actually worked: Is poetry more or less popular then 10 years ago Poetry has seen a resurgence in popularity over the last decade, thanks to digital platforms and social media. While traditional poetry readership fluctuated, the rise of Instapoetry and poets like Rupi Kaur helped bring poetry to a wider audience. In 2017, poetry readership in the U.S. grew by 75% compared to 2012, reaching 11.7% of adults. However, by 2022, the percentage of adults reading poetry had dropped slightly to 9.2%. Despite this, poetry consumption through audio and streaming has increased, with 4.8% of adults listening to poetry via broadcasts or web streaming. Additionally, poetry book publishing has grown, with a 10% increase in poetry books published globally in 2023 compared to 2022. Younger audiences, particularly Gen Z and Millennials, have embraced poetry, with 28% of readers under 30 engaging with it regularly. So, while traditional poetry readership has fluctuated, poetry remains widely consumed, especially in digital formats.

These aren't your grandparent's democratic party: Speaker Mike Johnson @SpeakerJohnson · 5m Republicans are SUPPORTING the men and women of ICE through the One Big Beautiful Bill, but Democrats are FIGHTING FOR illegal aliens and AGAINST law enforcement agents. They’ve defended the violent mobs in LA, fought ICE officers in Newark, and even flown to El Salvador to drink margaritas with an MS-13 gang member and human trafficker.

Do Jews and non Jews need to be reminded about what happened about a year ago at Columbia University and UCLA and The Texas University in Austin? Yes you do. By November Jews around the world were aware of the new antisemitism and were emotionally more prepared and more prepared and preparing. So the surprise attack had failed. Remember.

More than 100 House Democrats voted against a Republican resolution condemning the antisemitic terrorist attack in Boulder and Colorado’s sanctuary state laws on Monday. The resolution, introduced by Rep. Gabe Evans (R-Colo.), cleared the lower chamber 280-113, with 75 Democrats joining Republicans to pass the measure. Democrats fumed over language in the resolution expressing “gratitude to law enforcement, including US Immigration and Customs Enforcement personnel, for protecting the homeland.” House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries speaks with reporters about the spending and tax bill embraced by President Trump and Republicans, at the Capitol in Washington, Friday, June 6, 2025.

And they’re proud of it,” the NRCC wrote on X. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) slammed Evans as a “joke” ahead of the vote. “Who is this guy? He’s not seriously concerned with combating antisemitism in America. This is not a serious effort,” Jeffries told reporters. “Antisemitism is a scourge on America. It shouldn’t be weaponized politically.” Evans shot back that the “wildly offensive sentiment” expressed by Jeffries is “why antisemitism persists.” This image provided by the Boulder police shows Mohamed Sabry Soliman.

Dan Goldman (D-NY), who is Jewish and voted no on the resolution, argued on the House floor that the measure was being put forward to simply “score political points.” “You weren’t here, Mr. Evans, last term, but there were about 10 antisemitism resolutions that effectively said the same thing solely to score political points,” Goldman said. “We Jews are sick and tired of being used as pawns.” Rep.

まよなか @mayonaka_ai · 14h 上も黒です Center for Jewish Impact @JewishImpact · 14h Greta Thunberg wasn’t kidnapped by Israeli forces. She knowingly sailed into an active war zone without permits, protocols, or real humanitarian aid—just a boat full of Hamas and Hezbollah sympathizers posing as activists. Calling that “kidnapping” isn’t just dishonest—it’s an insult to the hundreds of hostages taken by Hamas on October 7th. It’s an offense to the 55 still held in Gaza, trapped in terror tunnels, tortured, starved, and stripped of every basic human right. An offense to those Greta hasn’t bothered to mention in 612 days.

I demonstrate that America is great already and we are getting better, just hold onto your seats now.

So what about God? People would be interested more in God if God made sense, that a whole book could be written about God. Specifically on the details of God and what God is actually like. Yet now as in the past we are left with very little knowledge accept that God exists. We know that is true because of human history with God which was around before us, we assume. Over the years we learned that God exists. In some cultures it is just a given, as like you would be an idiot to become an atheist and not the other way around.

America is on it's feet again.
