“the pope is weak on crime” has gotta be one of the funniest things any politician has ever said in history

Morning Kittens

Every child, in every zip code, deserves a fair shot at a good education.

That's why I’m introducing legislation to repeal federal vouchers and keep public funds in public schools — so schools have the resources they need to do right by our kids.

I think this is the most likely explanation for what unfolded after the fact. #DonaldJChrist

“Look, I appreciate the pope’s efforts, but he just doesn’t understand Catholicism” is such a funny stance that so many people are taking. I’m not Catholic but I’m pretty sure the pope knows ball, so to speak.

Pauli Murray

On this day in 1964, Pauli Murray circulated a memo arguing that black and white women would “share a common fate of discrimination” unless Title 7 of the 1964 Civil Rights Act prohibited sex discrimination in employment as well as race discrimination. The memo helped keep the “sex amendment” in T7.

The Storms We Don’t Talk About Are Getting Stronger Super Typhoon Sinlaku moving toward Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands

A Category 5 storm just formed more than a month before the Pacific hurricane season even starts.

Most Americans didn’t hear about it.

Here’s why that matters—and what it tells us about where storms are headed next:

Eric Swalwell @ericswalwell X.com I am suspending my campaign for Governor. To my family, staff, friends, and supporters, I am deeply sorry for mistakes in judgment I've made in my past. I will fight the serious, false allegations that have been made — but that's my fight, not a campaign's. 7:36 PM • 4/12/26 • 12K Views

⚠️ SWALWELL OUT OF RACE FOR GOVERNOR

We’re about to pay Iran $6 billion to re-open the thing that was open before the war.

Art of the deal, baby.

Here we fixed this for you, @wsj.com

We see you trying to help JD pretend he doesn’t have to wear this war when he runs for president. Nope.

Wild that Trump has sent his son in law who has billions in business deals in the Middle East to negotiate with Iran and that isn’t a scandal that will end his presidency or even really mentioned by the networks
