This guy couldn't get elected as a Republican to a school board in Missouri today

Countless LGBTQ+ Americans have served—in every branch, at every rank—swearing to defend a Constitution that didn’t always defend them. Their service is undeniable. Their rights are non-negotiable. We’ve worn the same boots, taken the same oath—and we’ve got their six. Always.

If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it. S Colbert

** Evidence You Might Be In A Cult ** You follow one charismatic Leader. In your Leader’s mind, your Leader can do no wrong. In your mind, your Leader can do no wrong. Your Leader demonizes dissidents & outsiders. Loyalty's the ultimate measure of your devotion. You don't know you're in a Cult

One of my biggest takeaways from Lions OTAs was Dan Campbell sounding very much like someone who has zero interest in bringing in anyone else on D. And then their play validated the coach.

The truth

As much fun as the TACO memes are, don't forget what that stands for: TRUMP ALWAYS CHICKENS OUT. It would be a shame to ignore the chicken memes that are there for the taking. Here's a little Starter Kit you might need. ENJOY!

We had the chance to watch our first OTA practice of the offseason. Here are my observations from that session: www.detroitfootball.net/p/lions-ota-...

The schedule is too hard. The Lions lost too many coaches. How's the team going to generate a pass rush? Dan Campbell doesn't care. In fact, he views the circumstances as perfect. He'll have his team ready. www.detroitfootball.net/p/campbell-s...

My man Russell Brown broke down Lions rookie Tyleik Williams' film from tOSU. Spoiler alert: it's quite impressive

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security.    Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.   Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Is congress going help? @gallego.senate.gov @captmarkkelly.bsky.social

The Oath of Office (for officers): "I, _____ (SSAN), having been appointed an officer in the _____ (Military Branch) of the United States, as indicated above in the grade of _____ do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States 1/2

The Oath of Enlistment (for enlisted): "I, _____, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; 1/2

Oath of POTUS: "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States”

I appreciate the sentiment, but cringe at the use of “Happy”. Memorial Day is not a happy occasion.

America once had my father's generation (and others) who volunteered and fought against dictatorships because it was the right thing to do, not so they could personally own hotels and golf resorts on battlefields gone quiet.

Wise words from Mr. Rogers. We are all in this together. Let us all renew ourselves to strive for the common good.

The answer is that it’s not a court but a political institution doing political things. Like it’s always been.

Buried deep in the text of the more than 1,000-page bill is a measure to restrict the federal courts’ authority to hold officials in contempt if they violate court orders.

NEWS: Sen. Ossoff and Sen. Mark Kelly reintroduced their Ban Congressional Stock Trading Act. Repost if you agree it's time to BAN stock trading by members of Congress.

And if you think it's bad now, the Billionaire Bailout Bill that passed the House this morning will be the biggest transfer of wealth in history if enacted.

This is from The Atlantic. This is exactly how Democrats should message Trump‘s bill. 👇🏻
