Congratulations, Virginia! Republicans are trying to tilt the midterm elections in their favor, but they haven’t done it yet. Thanks for showing us what it looks like to stand up for our democracy and fight back.

BREAKING: The YES vote will WIN Virginia’s redistricting referendum, allowing Democrats to redraw maps ahead of the midterms and potentially flip the state from 6–5 to 10–1 — a four-seat swing that could decide control of Congress.

Morning, y'all! ☕️ Just like this sweet sun, let’s go out there and beam today. Don't you give anyone permission to kill the beauty in your soul. Keep your chin up and your heart open! #Jaye’sMorningLight

NPR receives $113 million in charitable gifts "My hope is that this commitment provides the stability and the spark NPR needs to innovate boldly and strengthen its national network," says Connie Ballmer, who gave $80 million of the $113 million.

📌NPR has received two of the largest gifts in the public media network's existence, totaling $113 million.

This is something called a "good news" story.

I'd die without NPR, I really would.

DOJ demanded voter files from all 50 states.

DOJ sued 31 states for refusing their demand.

My law firm intervened to protect voters in those cases.

DOJ is now 0-5.

My firm is 5-0.

Pope Leo smiling while speaking with a religious sister and another woman

Highlighted text: “The world is being ravaged by a handful of tyrants, yet it is held together by a multitude of supportive brothers and sisters! They are the descendants of Abraham, as numerous as the stars in the sky and the grains of sand on the seashore. Let us look into each other's eyes: we are this immense people. Peace is not something we must invent: it is something we must embrace by accepting our neighbor as our brother and as our sister. We do not choose our brothers and sisters: we simply must accept one another! We are one family, inhabiting the same home: this wonderful planet that ancient cultures have cared for across millennia.”

Pope Leo’s words yesterday condemning “those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic or political gain” have been the focus of much attention, but we miss the point if we miss his recognition of the peacemakers and his call for us all to be among them.

BREAKING 🚨 Trump announces the U.S. military has captured Iran’s most wanted general in a high-risk raid deep inside enemy territory. Victory is ours. 😂 🤣

UK transfers about 1 billion dollars in frozen Russian assets to Ukraine The United Kingdom has transferred 752 million pounds (about 1 billion dollars) in frozen Russian assets to Ukraine, Ukraine's Finance Ministry said April 15.

Since Russia’s invasion in 2022, the G7 has frozen about $300 billion in Russian sovereign assets... now the UK just handed Ukraine a billion of Putin’s money.

That is going to piss Putin off!!! I really love this for him.
