Nice of JD to kill the pope to distract from Trump killing the economy.

If Trump wants to finish off America and put the final nail in our economic coffin, this is how he does it.

Me too. Since I was 21. I have watched him for almost 50 years. I always thought he was dumb, but I also thought he was potentially very very dangerous not cool, but still charismatic. When Obama humiliated him at the Press dinner, I knew that would set him off.

1/ My husband is a forest ecologist, so the subject of trees & their ecosystems is personal for me. A conservation biologist explains why it’s so difficult to conserve the nation’s varied old-growth landscapes. Succinct & well-written. No pay wall. #EarthDay #EarthDay2025

🇺🇸 Rep. Joe Wilson slams Putin’s Easter “truce” as fake: “History will remember #Putin as a weak and pitiful man. A war criminal bombing playgrounds & Christian bakeries, all while pretending to seek peace. He could end this invasion today—but chooses not to.” #PutinWarCriminal 📷Post: NOELreports

Shocking and awe as Trump continuous his assault on the American people. Only the billionaires are left unscathed. Even they may be affected by this.

Disaster. Trump is like a governmental hurricane, destroying everyone he touches every way he can.

Breast cancer diagnoses rose by over 300% between 1973 and 1992. Was there a breast cancer epidemic?! NO. Mammograms were implemented for screening in 1976. PREVALENCE is a function of being able to correctly diagnose something. This is also about autism.

Pope Francis was a visionary leader who dedicated his life to service and justice. He encouraged us to protect our planet, championed a more inclusive church, and cared for all of God’s children — especially the most vulnerable among us. Doug and I join the world in mourning his loss.

If this is not a form of human trafficking among crime cartels operating as State agents, I don’t know what would be. Trump, Putin, Maduro, Bukele run crime syndicate/extortion/weapons/human trafficking/crimes against humanity schemes. Why do we act like it’s all normal?

Kenyan #journalist Alvin Kaunda was reporting live from Nairobi when a curious baby #elephant, Kindani, decided to join the broadcast. The playful elephant stuck her trunk in Alvin's mouth, making for a hilarious moment! A joyful reminder of wildlife's charm and the work of the Sheldrick Trust!

JD Vance apparently sucked the life out of him. Didn’t he die within a day of touching him? He’s like a vampire.

This doesn’t excuse Republican senators for voting for him in the first place and demonstrating what incredibly bad judgement they had and how they cowered in fear from Don Trump. We need to vote them all out.

If you weren’t convinced of how soulless and evil creepy racist scumbag JD Vance is after trying to get Haitian immigrants in Ohio assaulted and killed, just look at how quickly Pope Francis died soon after seeing him and you’ll need no more convincing.

I miss having a president who didn’t use a holiday like Easter to demonize his political enemies with a bunch of childish slurs and nicknames.

HBCUs—already underfunded by $12B over 30 years—now face devastating federal cuts that could gut programs, staff, and student aid. These schools shouldn’t face defunding—they deserve reinvestment. This is a moment to protect, preserve, and help pour into our own.

While not a Catholic, I deeply respected and admired Pope Francis. He was a light in this darkening world. May he find peace with God. I pray the church finds a similar brave and compassionate leader, but I doubt it.

Raskin: The president derives his powers only either from the Constitution explicitly or from an act of Congress and Congress certainly has never given the president the power to relocate prisoners to foreign countries and there's nothing in the constitution that remotely vests that power…

While he offloads disaster relief to the states, he does everything he can to advance wild weather, that will arrive with the growing climate catastrophe.

Great question if actually not asked. In Texas a lot of us have been asking that question. Medicaid was not expanded here. We have the highest level of rural hospital closures. The Republican Party depends on rural electoral support or it loses every race. Real question is why aren’t we doing more?

Didn’t Trump turn FEMA over to the states? Clever. Wash your hands of responsibility for natural disasters while actively contributing to them. Is that having it both ways or playing both ends against the middle? (I get confused with the endless hypocrisy. Constant cognitive dissonance.)

So fitting. Has the tide really turned though? I really really hope so.
