Oh My, I think he might be correct...😱

The elevation of Pope Leo XIV is a profound and historic occasion. Like so many around the world, I am praying for him and wishing him and the Church well as his papacy begins.

This is the official White House account.

Bondi grotesquely claims that Abrego Garcia's wife and child are better off with him gone

JUST IN: Deputy Assistant to the President and "Counterterrorism Czar" Sebastian Gorka says anyone advocating for due process for Kilmar Abrego Garcia could be viewed as "aiding and abetting a terrorist" and be federally charged. (h/t Philip Germain)

Mood today: I’m in It’s going to take 11 million of us to hit the streets until we #TakeBackOurCountry

@schiff.senate.gov Senator, can you please advise….Why, after many clear cases of violating his oath of office, that we do not have levers to pull to remove this parasite from office? He is breaking the law daily. Mass deportation, circumventing Congress, defying the courts. The list goes on. TY

Just saw Stephen Miller outside Tysons Mall getting into a car with his security Told him to his face that he's hurting American families. He didn't look up and his security told me I need to keep moving. I was with my son and holding a Lego bag. These men are weak, cruel cowards.

The administration is a perfect storm of dumb people who enjoy inflicting pain and are addicted to psychotic cruelty and quadrupling down. It ends in total ruin if you don't impeach him.

Where is our humanity?

Buckle up for one of the nastiest Black Mondays in Wall Street history.

You have to see this. PoliticsGirl and her husband teamed up with the brilliant Timothy Snyder (author of On Tyranny) and the legendary John Lithgow to create something truly powerful. It’s important, it’s urgent—and it needs to be shared far and wide.

🚨BREAKING: Federal court rules that the Pennsylvania date requirement for mail-in ballot violates the First and 14th Amendments. Counties cannot reject ballots from counting undated and wrongly dated mail-in ballots. A HUGE victory for my law firm, our clients DSCC and DCCC and the voters of PA!

Things Democratic Senators could do that would be useful: - Withdraw unanimous consent from all Senate business until constitutional rule was restored - Refuse to vote for any legislation until constitutional rule was restored - Boycott as a caucus until constitutional rule was restored

I can’t believe this has to be said, but: You cannot tell the story of Jackie Robinson—as a ballplayer, serviceman, or human—without discussing our country’s history of racism. From Around the Horn:

I stand 100% with Jack Schlossberg and his Grandfather.

Donald Trump and JD Vance put on the most disgraceful display in the Oval Office of any US president meeting with the leader of a foreign ally. cutt.ly/rrtdAlFc

Thousands of US Department of Agriculture employees, including food inspectors and disease-sniffing dog trainers, remain out of work, leaving food to rot in ports and pests to proliferate.

My thanks to His Majesty King Charles III for his warm welcome and gracious hospitality today. Canada is fortunate to have a steadfast defender in our sovereign.

Two days after Lee Zeldin announced he was gutting the EPA.

Social Security. That's when the dam breaks. The right-wing in America is so extreme, so zealous, so morally bankrupt and greedy that they'll gut SS and Medicaid even though they know it'll destroy their base. People won't truly wake up until those checks don't come. A lot of pain, sadly.

Well that’s a headline I did not except to see. Ever.

they’re arresting people for performing abortions, they’re deporting people for liking pro-palestine posts on social media, they’re sending immigrants to forced labor camps in south america, we are living under fascism right now

Huge march in New York today protesting the illegal DOGE cuts

Did you see the video of the elderly man who went to his Capitol to testify against trans kids but he ended up sitting in the overflow room and listened to two hours of testimony and completely changed his mind on trans kids? Some of them are still reachable.

People in Serbia are rising up. Beautiful to see.

BERNIE: “We have a health care crisis in this country. Americans are dying because they can't afford to see a doctor. We agreed on BIPARTISAN legislation to improve health care in America. And one Republican kills the bill. The American people are watching.”
