So let me get this straight, we finally get an American pope, and some of the America first crowd is mad because he cares about the poor and immigrants. Am i missing something here?

Dr. Carla Hayden has served as Librarian of Congress with honor and distinction, bringing our prized institution to new heights. Trump’s outrageous, politically-motivated move to fire her is despicable. The Library of Congress belongs to the American people — NOT to Trump.

There's strong evidence that women's participation in security efforts makes countries safer. That's why leaders in over 100 countries have taken action to further it. One of them—who signed the U.S. Women, Peace & Security Act into law in 2017—was Donald Trump.

The way to honor Pope Francis is to continue his fight for social justice — and to make sure that the values he instilled in us are reflected in our politics and the leaders we choose to represent us.

The reason civil rights activists called their marches and protests “demonstrations” was because they were staged to demonstrate the evils of discrimination and anti-democratic rule. It’s an essential step in effecting change.

Trump reportedly wants to eliminate funding for Head Start programs. These programs provide educational and nutritional support to our poorest children. Meanwhile, Trump is pushing for more tax cuts for the rich and a record breaking $1 trillion Pentagon budget. Hello?

The government isn't doing universities a favor by channeling federal funding through them. It's using a private entity to realize public goals, to accomplish things that benefit the entire nation. You'd think conservatives who call for privatization all the time would grasp that.

I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

A MORAL CRISIS “The rule of law is being trampled. Innocent people are being disappeared. Court orders are being ignored. If you claim to love this country—if you believe in the Constitution, due process, order, and justice—this must be your line in the sand.” Take 3 minutes. This is important.

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

You can't use the parks budget to redo your backyard. You can't use the highway budget to repave your driveway. You can't use the police budget to hire a personal security guard. And rich people can't use our public school budget to pay for private school. Say no to vouchers.
