THIS is the most devastating constitutional crisis.

A PLANE?!?! My dad turned down tickets to a BULLETS game when he was chief of staff of the senate foreign relations committee! And this guy accepts A PLANE?

USA WASN'T EVEN THERE....

Well framed

This is not good. State trooper cars should be highly visible and marked. It’s not safe to have unmarked or low visibility vehicles pulling people over, especially in the age of ICE kidnappings. www.kctv5.com/2025/05/09/c...

was recently told by a scholar of some note that it was out of bounds to compare trump's purge of black people from the federal government to wilson's efforts to resegregate the federal bureaucracy

Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker plans to sign an executive order preventing state agencies from obtaining or disclosing data that personally identifies people with autism, unless required for medical care or legal matters. “Every Illinoisan deserves ... the freedom to live without fear of surveillance.”

The Russian embassy in France ( @FranceEnRussie ) launched a coordinated disinformation campaign against President Macron as revenge for his aid to Ukraine. The recent op is circulating a video of Macron picking up a crumbled paper which disinfo agents are claiming is cocaine.

Pope Leo XIV is descended from Creole people of color from New Orleans. Take a look at historical records that trace the story of his mother’s family.

Another weekend for self-care in the age of the Clueless Cowboy. Watching the next Doctor Who story The Gunfighters (1966). #TraitorTrump #DoctorWho

Well said.

This kid runs circles around the reporter

The people constantly braying about “Christian values” are attacking the Pope for suggesting that we love others.

From Tusk this evening. So many good things to say about this photograph!

Make it make sense

At Pope Leo XIV's first Mass as leader on Friday, he pledged to align himself with “ordinary people” and not with the rich and powerful. Many see the first American pope as a continuation of his predecessor, Pope Francis, in his advocacy of the poor, migrants and a more open church.

Deleted the habeas tweet because the constitution refers to it in the suspension clause as a “privilege,”which Miller was essentially quoting. Still bad! But fair’s fair.

If you’re not alarmed yet you’re not paying attention

In an era that looked as if it might be defined by an American man of depraved cruelty, corruption & shame, what a magnificent thing the Catholic Church has done. The elevation of an American man of goodness, grace, humility, mercy & faith to the Throne of St. Peter is moving & momentous for us all.

'Giving equal weight to people who lie or mislead and people intent on presenting facts may superficially look like impartiality.

NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — New Jersey mayor is arrested at ICE detention center where he was protesting its opening, acting US attorney says.

While Trump is kidnapping and deporting Hispanic, Muslim, and Black immigrants, he’s flying in white South Africans and allow them to settle in the United States as “refugees.” This is blatant racism.

"In 1978 I and my fellow Cold-War-liberals-en-route-to-becoming-Reagan-Republicans found the selection of this anti-Communist and pro-freedom pope from behind the Iron Curtain exciting. Could Pope Leo XIV foretell a similar revival of the forces of freedom today?" www.thebulwark.com/p/an-america...

How we beat back the corporate takeover of America: 1. Break up corporate monopolies 2. Continue building union power 3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

Weird. Rome has an American Pope and America has a Russian President.
