Pride Month isn’t about elevating one existence over others; it’s about lifting those who have been told their existence or their love is wrong, that they are less. I’d love to not need a month dedicated to lifting people from persecution, hate, or self-loathing. Till then, I’m here for the lift.

Musk and Trump are a great example of why men are too emotional to lead.

These two psychos have access to all your personal data, by the way.

Having served 2 terms elected to the DC Democratic Party, I witnessed Rep. Gerry Connolly’s @connolly.house.gov unwavering dedication to public service. He fought for our communities as an ally and for Virginia w heart and tenacity. Grateful for his legacy! Rest in power 🕊️ #VA11 #RIPGerryConnolly

Striking. SEN. DURBIN: Do you know the #1 cause of preventable death in America today? SEC. KENNEDY: Number one cause…not sure what you're talking about SEN. DURBIN: I'm talking about tobacco. You fired the head of CDC’s Office on Smoking & Health and eliminated their efforts from your budget

House budget bill would lead bottom income quintile to lose ~4% of their income on average ($800), but top percentile would see their incomes rise 4% (nearly $70,000). If tariffs remain in place, the overall impact on families would be even more regressive. budgetlab.yale.edu/research/dis...

Michelle and I are thinking of the entire Biden family. Nobody has done more to find breakthrough treatments for cancer in all its forms than Joe, and I am certain he will fight this challenge with his trademark resolve and grace. We pray for a fast and full recovery.

Yeah. Perhaps it would have been good to say this a while ago.

Far less than,1 percent

Biden’s transport secty, Pete B asked for funding to upgrade airport comms, then Rep Sean Duffy(current secty of transport) voted it down along with every other Republican! Asshole Duffy is now BLAMING BIDEN FOR NOT FIXING IT!! You can’t make this shit up.The felons’ staff are ALL INCOMPETENT!!!!

My two fav guys!

Less than two weeks after Pope Francis's passing, the man who is the poster child for the Seven Deadly Sins posted a picture of himself depicting him as the Pope. This is not only offensive to millions of Catholics but is a stark insight into the mind of a deeply disturbed individual. Appalling.

Now do the NRA

Abbe Lowell starts a new firm to snap up all the associates quitting from firms that capitulated to Trump. www.cbsnews.com/news/abbe-lo...

BREAKING: AOC sends a message to Tom Homan at her town hall in Jackson Heights: “Tom Homan said he was going to refer me to DOJ because I'm using my free speech rights in order to advise people of their constitutional protections. To that I say: Come for me. Do I look like I care?”

I do not know how it is so hard to learn that the only way to deal with Trump is to push back against him. It's like every institution in America has to relearn this lesson every week.

I like telling authoritarians where to shove it in multiple languages

Can’t believe this needs to be said but here we are. The MMR vaccine DOES NOT contain pieces of aborted fetuses. The vaccine contains weakened forms of measles, mumps, and rubella viruses and inactive ingredients like rHSA, neomycin, and sorbitol to stabilize the solution. That’s it.

U.S. District Judge Fernando Rodriguez, Jr., a Trump appointee, wrote that Trump's invocation of the act "exceeds the scope of the statute and is contrary to the plain, ordinary meaning of the statute's terms." The government, he ruled, does not "possess the lawful… www.npr.org/2025/05/01/g...

If You Were Wondering How Out Of Touch They Really Are….

Um. Funny bc it sure seems like that's exactly what he is. 🙄🙄 Perhaps if you'd grow an effing spine and take back your Article 1 power you wouldn't get rolled all the time. But you won't do that, will you, because you're a weak, feckless coward. Pathetic!! www.politico.com/live-updates...

You literally sound like a communist

The people who’ve felt the historic weight of oppression see the danger. Does it make more sense now why Trump doesn’t want you learning our history? Listen to us—because no one walks away safe from a collapsing democracy.

Vaccines make you very hot and strong. It's true.
