Mike Johnson was born in Shreveport, Louisiana. He held a moment of silence on the House floor for these young victims of the horrific domestic gun violence incident but he actively blocks gun control legislation to prevent these shootings. He has blood on his hands! www.kplctv.com/2026/04/21/s...

In 2024, Louisiana rejected a red flag/extreme risk protection order law & passed permitless carry instead. A strong ERPO law could allow family members/law enforcement to temporarily remove guns from someone in acute crisis who is showing signs of dangerous behavior before the violence happens.
💔 8 children ranging in age from 1-14 years old - including some of his descendants - were killed & 2 others were wounded in a mass shooting in 3 different locations in Louisiana this morning.
Guns are the #1 killer of children/teens in the U.S.

The world thinks Trump & his entire administration is a joke.
CNN: “It’s a blowout… not even close… Pope Leo absolutely crushing Trump when it comes to how popular they are.”
@lucasbean.bsky.social is right. Both sides are not the same!
19 years ago, 32 people were killed and 23 were injured in a mass shooting at Virginia Tech.
We remember the lives taken and will continue to #HonorWithAction.

Former Virginia Lieutenant Governor Justin Fairfax shot & killed his wife then himself.
In 2019, he was accused of sexual assault by 2 women.
Women are 5X more likely to be killed in domestic violence situations when guns are present.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.
This Tax Day, don't forget this: Donald Trump went out of his way to shut down the IRS' FREE and EASY tax filing program.
But I have a bill to bring it back for good. Let's get it done.
BREAKING: John Eastman, the attorney who helped with Trump's strategy to overturn the 2020 election, has just been disbarred!
There will be more hungry people in our nation due to Trump & Netanyahu’s war with Iran.
Trump & other Republicans have never been good for our economy!
NEW: “Arrest as many people that touch you as you want to," Gregory Bovino told Border Patrol officers in 2025.
But a review of hundreds of such arrests shows that charges brought against protesters and bystanders repeatedly fell apart under scrutiny.

👏👏👏Hoping for this outcome in the U.S. in the near future!
I love this Pope!
Check out my new #GetWithThePOgram substack post. I made a decision to reclaim “gun control” after years of avoiding it & encouraging advocates & journalists to do the same.

It’s the first legislative session without former Minnesota House DFL leader Melissa Hortman, who was killed in her home with her husband, Mark, last June. For their children, Sophie and Colin, it’s their first spring without their parents.

New York City police arrested about 100 demonstrators after more than 300 anti-war protesters staged a sit-in outside the Manhattan offices of U.S. Senators Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand, calling on them to support an expected Senate vote blocking additional U.S. weapons sales to Israel.
Good riddance to Eric Swalwell. We read the San Francisco Chronicle reporting in disgust at his clearly abusive behavior, and additional reporting from CNN paints a picture of a damning pattern.
We’re deeply concerned by the similar allegations against Tony Gonzales.
BREAKING: Embattled GOP Rep. Tony Gonzales announces he will resign from Congress tomorrow, stepping down ahead of a potential expulsion vote after a House Ethics probe into an inappropriate relationship with a staffer.
Trump trolling the Pope with an AI image of himself as Jesus should enrage all 1.4 billion Catholics around the world.
Because they are all criminals?
In his first 100 days, Zohran Mamdani has:
-Delivered millions in restitution for workers cheated by gig companies
-Cracked down on predatory landlords
-Launched the first stage of a universal childcare program
-Fixed thousands of potholes in NYC streets
This is what leadership looks like.
I hate when fantasy films I made a long time ago begin to come true in real life.
Epstein survivors slam Melania for 'shifting the burden' after surprise statement: "Survivors of Jeffrey Epstein have already shown extraordinary courage by coming forward, filing reports, and giving testimony. Asking more of them now is a deflection of responsibility, not justice."
