ADD YOUR NAME: Christians support the Dept of Education: Musk's so-called DOGE is destroying the Dept of Education, and Christian nationalist leaders are celebrating. Let's stand together as Christians and oppose this attack on our public education system. act.faithfulamerica.org/sign/eddept-...

If I get sent somewhere without due process and make it out, and people ask how it happened, I’ll just say: ‘Well, Chuck Schumer didn’t think Trump’s approval was low enough. So I disappeared to a camp in another country until he felt Republicans would work with him.

Unconventional Families and St Joseph

This is really remarkable. A pardon attorney was told that Gibson was a personal friend of the President and she should recommend he be given his access to guns back. She didn't and was immediately fired. They will fire lawyers who won't bless their cronyism. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/10/u...

1/ Temptation often disguises itself as something good. One of the easiest ways to fall into idolatry is by worshiping the very things we are meant to love. 🧵

Trump: "We were the richest relatively -- think of this -- from 1870 to 1913. That was our richest. Because we collected tariffs ... we had so much wealth. Of course, now we give it away to transgender ... everybody gets a transgender operation."

The Georgia Republican who recently told CNN that school kids should be sent to work to earn school lunches was met with outrage and fury from residents at a local town hall meeting on Thursday night.

I met with rural Democrats in Page County, Iowa tonight. Everyone is a little overwhelmed with the shock and awe campaign, but they are calling, writing, and showing up. Red state folks are used to this sort of blitz…we know the drill. Stand up. Talk back.

🚨BREAKING: In 4-3 decision, Wisconsin Supreme Court reverses lower court decision and DISMISSES voter suppression lawsuit. A big victory for our clients the WI Alliance for Retired Americans and voting rights in Wisconsin. Another stinging loss for the GOP! www.democracydocket.com/cases/wiscon...

For some reason, I keep thinking about how the Emperor Tiberius (the emperor who crucified Jesus) renamed the Sea of Galilee "Lake Tiberias" after himself as part of his brutal repression of the Jews. Renaming things is a powerful form of colonization and oppression of subject populations.

Imagine if @aoc @sanders.senate.gov , every dem, SIMULTANEOUSLY held Town Halls where they allowed grant and contract recipients to explain to the country what it is they do and why it's important Invite all media. Including RW podcasters. @spaces Flood the zone Call it a Day Of Transparency

BREAKING: Judge Beryl Howell has ruled that the FBI will have to release documents related to Trump's mishandling of classified documents in a FOIA case brought by Jason Leopold. From Kyle Cheney: www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

Are tariffs, Canada as a state, and Gaza mentioned by Trump to distract from the losses in court?

Wait. Have @doge and Elon just been pulling numbers from usaspending.gov ? Then releasing it as if they discovered it ? Brilliant if true. Absolutely brilliant. Fooled me. Very Trump like too. Any usaspending.gov experts out there that can tell us ?

Great point.

How are the Democrats so befuddled in how to respond to Trump? Trump people announce their literal playbook (Project 25) and Tactics (Flood the Zone), and the Democrats are openly admitting that they don't know how to respond to this. Seriously?!?!?

Faith-based orgs like Lutheran Social Services serve everyone, regardless of faith. Cutting their funding doesn’t hurt bureaucrats—it hurts kids, veterans & families in need. Blocking approved funds may not even be legal. Speak up!

180 Republicans voted to defund the FAA in 2019. These 180 Republicans voted against the Transportation, Housing and Urban Development, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2019, which included funding for the agency responsible for keeping air travel safe. Source: #meidastouch

The investigation is ongoing, and politicizing it without facts is irresponsible. Calling DEI the problem is just coded language implying women and people of color shouldn’t be in these roles. By process of elimination, it’s clear who they think should be.

After claiming he doesn't know who Laura Loomer is and merely took a photo with her at a book event, Kash Patel is asked if he's familiar with Stew Peters, an antisemitic podcast host. Patel: "Not off the top of my head." Durbin: "You made eight separate appearances on his podcast..."

This press conference on the DC crash is an embarrassment. Just a lot of rambling.

In 13 years of ministry, no one has ever come into my office asking for forgiveness for having too much empathy—though I wish more would recognize and repent of their apathy.

I am glad I canceled my subscription.

The Washington Post calls January 6 and the events leading up to it "election-reversal efforts." It has gotten Orwellian over there. I will say again, support independent, pro-democracy media.

Release the Jack Smith report.

This is why you do not put an utterly unqualified crackpot like Kash Patel in charge of FBI

He lost reelection. He left with a 34 percent approval rating. He didn't feel sorry for himself. He didn't say "to hell with it" and cash in and play golf. He went back to his farm and rolled up his sleeves and spent the rest of his life dedicated to humanitarian causes. Well done, Mr. President.

We need to do what we can in our communities—loving our neighbors and investing in our children—to ensure that the next Jimmy Carter will prevail someday, hopefully sooner rather than later.

The number of people blaming the COVID vaccine for rising colon cancer in the comment section of an article I saw on IG is staggering. How many are bots vs. believers? These folks were exhausting during the pandemic—I’m out of energy for this nonsense.

Cassidy notes pointedly that Trump followed Musk.

And if I recall, the reason that shutdown ended was that it started to impact air travel. Once it becomes a problem for the business and privileged classes, it’s amazing how quickly solutions can be found.

See below for my statement in response to Chairman Loudermilk's "Interim Report":

Perhaps I've misunderstood all along and WaPo ownership views "Democracy dies in darkness" as aspirational.🤔

NEW: After reviewing leaked documents, we have found UnitedHealth is strategically limiting access to a treatment for thousands of children with autism across the country in order to cut costs. Advocates say the company’s strategy may be illegal. www.propublica.org/article/unit... 👇

The law treats corporations as people, but we protect them better than actual people. #briannaboston
