Universities reflect on the values, goals, and interests of a social order too frenetically bound up in its own short-term practical pursuits to be capable of much self-criticism. Across the globe, that critical distance is now being diminished almost to nothing. chroni.cl/41cDb0R

Leaders of Catholic aid groups are warning that even short delays in foreign aid payments will result in deaths among aid recipients.

There are moments in these deportation fights when I can just FEEL how pissed off they are that I’m Puerto Rican 😂 they want to threaten me with it so bad 😂

Since the beginning of this year, Ohio poultry farmers have culled almost 11 million birds infected with avian flu. The Ohio Poultry Association told lawmakers the virus has “wreaked havoc” on flocks, particularly in far west Darke and Mercer Counties.

This is how Mitch McConnell should be remembered: Without him, there’s no President Trump right now—he had the chance to convict during impeachment and end it, but he didn’t. Without him, there’s no stacked conservative Supreme Court—you’d have more rights today.

💕 It's $600 Saturday and we need Jack Schlossberg to take over! We need to raise $600 for our victim of domestic violence & the Eaton Fire in L.A. where she lost everything. If only 30 of us chip in $20 each (or more) we can do it! Grab your credit card -- and let's get this done! Click below:

How interesting that only a day after two posts decrying his major role in the precarious role he has played in the threat to American Democracy announced his retirement. Frankly, he has been long been retired. Now you’ll have many opportunities to be voiceless for awhile with that dazed look.

I’m not done with Mitch. He allowed Trump to make racist remarks about his wife! This hubris that he was longest serving Majority Leader will be forever tarnished by given Trump a second act. He ought to be ashamed. When he needed to be a leader he failed miserably. This chaos is on him.

Mitch McConnell, it didn’t show “courage” to reject Bobby and Tulsi. Your hubris was believing that you were the most powerful GOP leader. You held a Supreme Court nominee hostage and now Trump is given full immunity from bad behavior. After the January 6th insurrection, you could have convicted him

Elon Musk is Americas biggest welfare queen! Billions of dollars in government contracts. Billions of dollars in electric vehicle subsidies. Hundreds of millions of dollars stolen from American investors by not following SEC rules when acquiring Twitter. And he says he wants small government!

You know what mystifies me about 2024 Trump voters especially government workers are stunned that they have been terminated. Say what you will about the Orange messiah, for once he spoke the truth out loud. Citizenship requires critical thinking, not a popularity contest. I’m sickened by ignorance

You need to watch this great and important speech from Governor Pritzker www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2fhPXAs/

“After we’ve discriminated against, deported, or disparaged all the immigrants, the gay and lesbian and transgender people, the developmentally disabled, the women, and minorities. Once we’ve ostracized our neighbors and betrayed our friends… what comes next?” - Gov. JB Pritzker

German Voters Prepare to Elect a New Parliament. Here's What to Expect on and After Election Day: German voters go to the polls Sunday to elect a parliament that will determine who runs the country for the next four years

Can I just say I’m a total fanboy of my governor, JB Pritzker!

When the Super Bowl kicks off at New Orleans’ Caesars Superdome on Sunday, football fans won’t be allowed to bring coolers into the nearby French Quarter. Guns, however, can be carried freely, both openly and concealed.

Every accusation of right wingers is a projection. Hypocrisy is their default mode.

www.vox.com/2015/1/12/74... I originally posted this on Facebook in 2017 when immigrants were vilified during Trump 1. Here it’s 2025, and everything old is new again.

Krishnamoorthi has an egg prices placard!

🚨 MAJOR BREAKING NEWS Congressman Al Green has just brought Articles of Impeachment against Donald Trump for his suggestion for ethnic cleansing in Gaza. Green said: "The movement to impeach the president has begun.” Should Trump be impeached?

The only immigrant trying to destroy the country.

#booksky My favorite novel by my favorite writer is timeless. Native born Americans are traveling to this raw new world and are encountering many newly arrived immigrants—Czechs, Swedes, Germans, Italians and even Russians. Initially wary, the native Americans realize they are creating together.

In 1979, Jimmy Carter had solar panels installed at the White House. Ronald Reagan had them removed. We may be able to trace back the current "Do Harmful Things if it Trolls the Libs" Republicanism to Reagan removing those panels the far more forward thinking Carter had installed.

Trump is “ crazy like a fox.” Right now, the most outrageous stunts—tariffs and making Gaza a tourist destination is to deflect from the more serious threat of Elon Musk’s nefariousness. That’s where attention must be focused.

Former President Jimmy Carter has won a posthumous Grammy award. Carter died in December at age 100.

OPINION: No doubt religion in America has undergone many changes in the past 62 years: Mainline Protestantism has shrunk, the nones have risen, and clerical leadership is a far cry from what it once was.

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"
