Truly remarkable how many people have told the Pope, in some way or another, to "shut up and dribble." Or corrected him on the Bible, despite their thin education on theology. Or told him to stay out of US affairs, despite him being a US citizen. The hubris is amazing.
New post from Pope Leo: "God's heart is torn apart by wars, violence, injustice and lies. But our Father's heart is not with the wicked, the arrogant, or the proud. God's heart is with the little ones and the humble."
Hillary Clinton was right about everything.
Kamala Harris was right about everything.
Both would’ve been incredible Presidents and I remain proud AF to have cast my vote for them.
The victory of the opposition in Hungary yesterday, like the Polish election in 2023, is a victory for democracy, not just in Europe but around the world.
So much of this could have been prevented if the men in the Epstein files had been prosecuted instead of protected.
Color me completely unimpressed until articles are rolled out and a conviction is made.
Ive seen this show before. Ive heard this all before. Jan. 6 should have been the end of it. It wasnt.

Regardless of whether it’s all talk, when the leader of our country expresses plainly genocidal intent, everyone has to do something.
For citizens of all political stripes, it means rejecting this madness. For Congress, it means taking action to rein him in. Now.
BREAKING: We're challenging President Trump's executive order that aims to restrict mail-in voting.
Once again, the president is trying to seize power he doesn't have at the expense of our democracy.
Pam Bondi is a symptom of a problem that emanates from the Oval Office; shuffling deck chairs is a meaningless distraction if the policies and practices at DOJ go unaltered
The Constitution, not the president, decides who is a citizen.
Your April Fools' Day Reminder that trickle-down economics is the greatest trick of all. It's nothing more than a cruel hoax designed to enrich corporations and the super-rich at your expense. Don't fall for it.
The Constitution, not the president, decides who is a citizen.
Build child care centers.
Build health centers.
Build community centers.
Not data centers.
And not ICE detention centers.
Go make some good trouble today. 💚

While the President sends more American troops to the Middle East, the price of everything - groceries, gas, mortgages - keeps rising.
Let’s be clear: we are worse off today, and no safer, than before this unnecessary war began.
US citizens aren't required to carry proof of citizenship on their person so not having a passport, real ID or birth certificate is not probable cause to believe anyone is illegally in the country simply because they are Hispanic id be asking the agents what proof of citizenship they have
Right Again, Robert.......
Never in the history of this country has there been a president so uniquely unqualified for the position. Ironically it’s his second term.
7 years ago, we learned about Bob Mueller’s conclusions. Today, there are a lot of posts on social media claiming it was a farce, or worse, a fraud. But those posts are disinformation. Here is the actual information, with links for those who want to do a deep dive.

Ossoff: "When American service members are returning in flag-draped coffins... this White House treats war like a [videogame].
It's a disgrace... it speaks to the moral rot of this administration."
It's a shame this is where we are as a country.
What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”
What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”
Funny how that works.
ICE should have been hunting down the Iranian sleeper cells instead of 5 year-olds in bunny hats and 6 year-olds with hearing aids.
Cornyn hits a new low trying to get the endorsement.
The SAVE Act is a major attack on voting rights. It is not a genuine voter ID reform, but rather an attempt to suppress turnout in future elections.
Chris Murphy: "I think it's likely the United States that carried out this attack on this school. I think it's unforgivable under any circumstances, but the fact this was one of our first targeting decisions speaks to the incompetence of our leadership at the Dept of Defense."
I absolutely hate having him as president.
