Pope Leo has wasted no time calling for a ceasefire in Gaza. This is both following in the footsteps of his predecessor & the right thing to do. People with compassion and a commitment to justice unwaveringly demand ceasefire immediately. I'm grateful Pope Leo is leading with compassion & justice.

ICE has detained Kseniia Petrova, a Harvard scientist from Russia working on major advancements in cancer detection, since mid-February. If deported, she could face arrest over her opposition to the war in Ukraine. Another reminder that xenophobia hurts all of us.

View of Hands Off! march in San Diego, CA from 34th floor of a building at 7th & B Streets. A police officer told me they expected 3,000 people for the rally/march, but thought there were 10-12,000. @maddow.msnbc.com
