Israeli strike hits Gaza church, killing 3 and wounding priest who was close to Pope Francis An Israeli shell slammed into the compound of the only Catholic church in the Gaza Strip, killing three people and wounding 10 others, including the parish priest, according to church officials.

Just hours after war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu sanctimoniously scolded us about how Israel and the IDF respect other faiths.

Then President Donald Trump did exactly what his staffers have repeatedly said they wouldn’t do.

U.S. Installs a Trump Loyalist to Lead ‘Grand Conspiracy’ Case Into Trump Foes

Pope James David Vance the First The vice president has decided he’s a more accomplished theologian than Leo XIV.

Vance has now seized the top seat in the Death of Expertise Hall of Fame: He has lectured the pope—the pope, the leader of a billion and a half Catholics—about being too sloppy with theology.

The queen of all vices: Pride.

4 big takeaways from key federal election commission’s  annual meetings Democracy Docket was among the few outlets covering the gatherings.

🚨NEW: Just months before the 2026 midterms, election officials warn of chaos, executive overreach and interference.

From a looming Supreme Court ruling to a federal voter data network push, here are key takeaways from this week’s EAC meetings in Chicago.

Right out in the open, Donald Trump is suing his own IRS to try to steal $10 BILLION taxpayer dollars.

I just introduced a bill that would make this theft ILLEGAL.

On January 10, 2022, the Knicks played the San Antonio Spurs at the Garden. It was Pride night. Richards was there, attending with a friend. An 18-page report prepared by Eversole's Threat Management Group and reviewed by WIRED shows just how closely she was being monitored. 07:10:20 // CAM 0241 // scans her ticket to section 102, Row 8, Seat 5 07:11:14 // CAM 1434 // goes up terrace escalators on level 3 to level 6 concourse 07:12:52 // CAM AC10 // hugs usher Appendix A of the report has a screenshot of the embrace, with Richards circled in red. 08:08:58 // CAM 1093 // talking with F&B worker at the Draft Kings Bar 08:10:49 // CAM 0512 // pays for the drinks 08:31:19 // CAM 0485 // eating at a table It goes on and on. At 8:48 pm, camera 0489 spots another quick hug with an MSG “membership experience executive” (there's a grainy photo in the report's Appendix N). Two minutes and two seconds later, the same camera captures her heading into the women's bathroom. Her exit is noted after precisely two minutes and five seconds.

The owner of MSG and the Knicks compiled this kind of second-by-second surveillance of a trans woman while they were in the arena. They're doing this at all venues owned by James Dolan of perceived enemies. Crazy, crazy shit.

Congratulations Tom Steyer for receiving the most highly coveted endorsement a California Democrat could hope for.

ZOHRAN: “TBH, I don’t think too much about how Republicans portray me. The power of an ideology is judged in the worth of its delivery— to be told a city-run grocery store is implausible but $500 MILLION/day to kill ppl in Iran & Lebanon is necessary speaks to a broken politics.”

Schumer is a putz. Read the room, Chuck 🤦🏻‍♀️

Of the Jewish senators, 7 out of 10 voted to block a sale of bulldozers to Israel.

Michael Bennet
Jon Ossoff
Bernie Sanders
Brian Schatz
Adam Schiff
Elissa Slotkin
Ron Wyden

NO: Blumenthal, Rosen, Schumer

Says a lot about the political shift happening

Ossoff: "Iran's ballistic missiles and drones are not destroyed. The regime is intact, along with its ability to throttle the global energy supply. Along with its stockpile of highly enriched uranium, which it only assembled after Donald Trump shredded President Obama's Iran deal."

We're not having it.

Quack like a fascist

US Dept of Health & Human Services confirms it ended contract with Catholic Charities in Feb.

Spokeswoman tells @MeidasTouch its Office of Refugee Resettlement is closing and consolidating unused facilities and that its contract w/ Catholic Charities in Miami is no longer needed

Disney's new CEO, whose pay package is worth nearly $45M, just announced 1,000 layoffs.

Reminder that Disney paid an effective federal income tax rate of ZERO in 2025 and aims to buy back $7B of its own stock in 2026.

This is what corporate greed looks like.

Chuck Schumer's two votes tonight in favor of bombs and bulldozers to Israel is yet another reason Senate Democrats must vote to remove him as leader post the midterms.

Amid President Trump's public sparring with Pope Leo XIV, the government canceled an $11M federal contract with Catholic Charities used to aid unaccompanied minors around Miami.

We're demanding the truth about whether these children, caught in the middle, are being used as political pawns.

Just imagine the all out Tweetstorm if/when Obama meets the Pope. Buckle up.

Trump Math:

Kidnap the melanated people and put them in jail - over 70+% of whom have no prior convictions. Some of them will die.

Non-melanated domestic terrorists are released, free to crime again which a number of them have already done.

Another reason NOT to shop at Target. ⬇️

Sure, but this means the entire GOP owns it.

Literally, this SHOULD be incredibly easy to turn into a midterm issue.

And this is why it's important to note that these people were not JUST convicted of sedition, but also some or most were adjudged as terrorists.

They're terrorist sympathizers.
