With all due respect and admiration toward you, personally, Madam Senator, we need your colleagues to show us. Faith is over in America.

If you don't take my class, let Sheryl take you to church.

Races for the bench feel overwhelming to people. If you have questions, just ask. Eventually, you'll at least get your hands on a good list of recs come election time.

They want the world to be as closeted as they are. This is all projection. The homoeroticism of everything, the hypersexualization of peeing and pooping, the fixation on genitals. This is all late stage Christian fundamentalism at work.

Tesla's the biggest meme stock in the history of the market. The bubble burst. It'll have spikes here and there but the plateau is of the past.

The hypocrisy doesn't matter because to admit the hypocrisy is to admit they've been fooled, and that requires an educated level of humility. Not to mention, Trump's hypocrisy has never really violated the 14 words. And that's what mostly matters to these people.

If we can still be internet buddies, I'm gonna keep it real with you, friend. This is your whiteness that had faith in the first place. Blacks, browns, women, gays, and queers were born under the boot and we've largely never immediately anticipated the light of day.

Kim was a legendary golfer, too.

These weird, racist losers *defended* it

Hospitals in Gaza are struggling to respond to the surge of injured patients pouring in one day after Israel broke the ceasefire with Hamas. Dr. Razan al-Nahhas describes the scene as 'pure chaos.' (via @wbur.org)

Enrollment at our community colleges continues to surge with the largest spring-to-spring enrollment increase ever and third straight year of growth. They’ve not only bounced back from the pandemic, but they're also stronger than ever thanks to our historic investments.

Senator Chris Murphy's takedown of Trump's crypto scam was so perfect, I just turned it into a whiteboard video. www.youtube.com/watch?v=PfgY...

Spoke with an attorney who was harassed by law enforcement after providing pro bono help to immigrants. Wouldn't ID themselves or the agency. My guess is he isn't the only one. If you've experienced similar harassment or know someone who has, please feel free to reach out. Signal: @radleybalko.52

He's not wrong.

ABC is reporting 131 dead so far, as Israel vows to "open the gates of hell on Gaza"

This is an absurd human.

Highly unlikely this family was killed randomly. The targeting not just of medical workers but of their families has become too routine to be explained as an unfortunate consequence of war. It is a strategic element of the genocide.

There's no war in Gaza. This is yet another massacre in a series of massacres within the greater genocide.

Decent people don't normalize this.

I can't believe we need to rehash the conversation where America makes black and brown women do the heavy lifting. www.nbcnews.com/politics/202...

While we're on Obama The Charlatan, never forget:

Obama, forever the naked emperor

When the history of this period is written, will you have been on the side of peace and humanity, or on the side of Israel and genocide? Will your descendants appreciate you? Or will they be ashamed of you and wonder how you lived with yourself?

But what was he wearing?

Blue Tea Party these right-wingers

Yes. And hostage taking doesn't justify collective punishment.

I get wanting them to go faster and harder but it's worth appreciating the courts have been rising to the occasion and aggressively swinging into action in huge ways and at a lightning pace, on a scale unprecedented in American history. Many judges are aggressively treating this as a real crisis.

A genocide supported by Biden-Harris. This is why so-called liberals don't wanna talk about it.

Yawn. Can we move on now?

CNN pretending there was a ceasefire and a possible truce. Cute.

Did the government lawyers have "LIES" paddles? Because that would've really told the judge.
