Honestly? The $400M plane from Qatar is quaint compared to his crypto scam, memecoin con, insider trading, and tariff shakedowns.

73% of mothers with kids under 18 are in the workforce. More than flowers or brunch, working moms need: -Paid family leave -Equal pay -Universal childcare (But get your mom flowers, too)

🇺🇦🇻🇦 Pope Leo XIV: “I carry in my heart the suffering of the beloved Ukrainian people. May everything possible be done to achieve a true, just and lasting peace as soon as possible. May all prisoners be released and children returned to their families.”

"No client ever had money enough to bribe my conscience or to stop its utterance against wrong, and oppression." -- Abraham Lincoln

Could you imagine the response if a democratic president said they didn’t know if they had to uphold the Constitution? How fast would the articles of impeachment be drawn ? 20 minutes at the most

We must never stop fighting to defend due process. We must never stop fighting to defend free speech. We must never stop.👇

Could Pope Leo XIV prove to be, like his predecessor, the kind of leader who eschews power and comfort in favor of service and solidarity? It's too early to tell, but his social media history gives us reason to hope.

Leo XIV. The last Pope Leo was the workingman’s pope, pro union and pro labor. Another good sign.

When Pope Leo rebukes Trump, and he will, his message will resound through American Catholics like never seen before.

The new Pope is the total opposite of Donald Trump. Pope Leo is a decent, moral man, defender of social justice and fluent in English.

Gwen and I join Minnesotans in congratulating His Holiness Pope Leo XIV, the first American Pope! May his papacy bring peace, compassion, and our shared Midwestern value of loving thy neighbor.

The first American Pope, Leo XIV, has just been elected. Prevost, from Chicago, is deemed to be in the mold of Pope Francis—a progressive. Yes, this is real.

Pope Leo is the Vatican's response for America giving us the Anti-Christ.

Congratulations to Robert Francis Prevost on becoming the new pope and thank you Kamala Harris for showing us all how sane and worthy leaders should respond to such world events. 🙏

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.

1/ On 4/16, fed’l Judge Paula Xinis characterized the steps the gov’t had taken to facilitate Kilmer Abrego Garcia’s return to the U.S. by saying, “The record reflects defendants have done nothing at all.” She ordered expedited discovery including depositions. joycevance.substack.com/p/the-record...

#ProudBlue #DemVoice1 No due process is illegal. Show the faces of these kidnappers. Why don't they have ID? Are they members of private militias who have been in training throughout the nation for just this purpose? Real members of ICE have ID. Are subject to following the law.

🎯🎯🎯

Trump’s ICE deported 3 American kids. One is 4 years old with stage four cancer.
Another’s mom is pregnant. No meds. No prenatal care. No due process. This ain’t “tough on immigration”—it’s sick.

Worth repeating 💥

Meet the new Director of Communications for the US Navy, Kristina Wong, who on Jan 6 sat and watched the violence at the Capitol North Doors. She thought it was funny: "a lil sporty". This woman now speaks for the US Navy. (h/t/ PIperK on Twitter who first flagged her new position.) 1/

Gélineau advanced the term "narcolepsy" in 1880 while de la Tourette described his eponymous syndrome in 1885. "Autism" was coined by Bleuler in 1911, with full diagnoses soon after. But what do I know? I'm not the Cabinet secretary in charge of the goddamn Department of Health and Human Services.

So other countries recognize and are willing to deal with and resist what America is becoming, an autocracy. Wake up America, this is really happening...we are becoming an autocracy.

BREAKING: The United Mineworkers and United Steelworkers unions are suing the Trump admin over its decision to delay enforcement of a lifesaving new silica rule meant to curb the black lung epidemic in Appalachia. My exclusive for @inthesetimesmag.bsky.social: inthesetimes.com/article/trum...

Finally, the correct tariff formula (from Private Eye)

RFK Jr is a blight and a menace

They’re using the hostages to try and justify their anti-democratic movement. Not in our name

So we can’t guarantee our own citizens health care but we can pay everyone in Greenland $10,000/year? How is this “America First”, exactly? www.nytimes.com/2025/04/10/u...

It has been 18 days since we learned that those involved in Signalgate recklessly endangered the lives of American pilots. The fact that there has been no Congressional investigation is an abomination. This should outrage every single Member of Congress.

Just wait until she goes after the Worcestershire sauce 😬

The Supreme Court ordered the administration to "facilitate" the return of Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, who was mistakenly taken to El Salvador and remains in custody there.

Oh, the irony 😂—talk about paid protesters! MAGA has filed a lawsuit against Elon Musk in Pennsylvania, alleging he failed to pay individuals who gathered signatures for a petition during the 2024 presidential campaign.

If you're a billionaire, then you'll barely notice a few thousand dollars a year in higher prices at the store from these Trump tariffs - plus you can count on him to get you another big tax break for the wealthy. But for everyone else, this is a big deal, and a bad one.

Do. Not. Let. Signalgate. Die.

This is something that most Americans should notice quite fast in their daily lives

Veterans getting fired, social security is at risk, and Elon is telling you what you don’t need in govt, all while he just got a $6billion space x contract today! He makes money on you!

Insider trading much? Didn’t Martha Stewart go to prison for that? Just curious 🤔 Good morning all!

They’re going to keep pushing until something stops them.

Utterly terrifying vision for a white nationalist “utopia” in America.

The government is slashing public health jobs, gutting vaccine programs, and fueling a measles comeback. This is not reform—it’s sabotage. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/make-ameri...
