The last time the White House proactively tanked the economy (Andrew Jackson), slavery was legal, the light bulb & antibiotics hadn’t been invented and the Federal Reserve didn’t exist… All caught up, NOW?! 🤚

You don't need a formal education or Religion to be empathetic or to reject indifference when, in fact, every person besides the Indigenous & Africans are descendants of immigrants who came to this country fleeing poverty, religious or political persecution, or war. So STOP pretending you're not!

Sinners dropping just 6% in its second weekend merits a much bigger headline than its $48 million opening. It is actual box-office news--news as in "This never happens." Just a giant thing, for Ryan Coogler and for the future of original material.

If members of the press are worried they didn’t give enough coverage to the cognitive decline of a sitting president, they have an amazing opportunity to make up for it right now.

I don't think the DNC understands how bad this makes them look. I understand that they are basically paid to be spineless but lets not get it twisted, many old guard dems just have bad political instincts on top of that

The fact that Schumer hasn't been pushed out of Dem leadership yet speaks to the weakness of the party.

Abducting and kidnapping US citizen children with life-threatening illnesses,and separating them from their doctors and medicine, is what happens when people don't think before they vote for corrupt and morally bankrupt people.

the weirdos who insisted children were being abused in the basement of a pizza parlor with no basement sure are quiet in the face of actual trafficking

Has the White House told us that the 4-year-old cancer patient belonged to MS 13 yet? It’s only a matter of time.

It is fundamentally bizarre for the White House Correspondents Association to be holding a celebratory dinner as the press pool and briefing room are being taken over and manipulated for partisan purposes.

6 weeks ago today, planes flew a few hundred people to El Salvador, where they’re being held at CECOT — a place from which Salvadoran officials brag no one is ever released — at US expense. Their continued detention there is our continued shame.

Given the literal definition of deportation is removing a foreigner or noncitizen from the country, we - journalists, media orgs - should probably all stop referring to the ‘deportation’ of a 2 year old US citizen. It’s NOT a deportation. I’m not sure what it is. A kidnapping?

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 43 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

I'm not Catholic, or religious, but I am going to miss Pope Francis and his love for all humanity. Of course, so much about the Catholic Church is deeply problematic, but he was a good man and what a Christian is supposed to be.

Chuck Schumer needs to move his ass on down the road. Enough of people wanting to stick around because of their ego (and that's precisely what it is). They are NOT thinking of us...when they decide to stay forever. It's one of the most selfish...and dangerous things any politician ever does.

RFK Jr blames diet, lifestyle & vaccines for chronic illness. Dr Oz says it’s a “patriotic duty” to lead a healthy life & be fit enough to serve in the military. Neither of them are pushing for Universal Healthcare, basic income, an end to food deserts & inequality, clean water etc. It’s eugenics

We need people on the streets in Milwaukee, outside FBI headquarters in DC, and outside wherever the fuck casino Kash Patel is living in Vegas. It’s utterly unacceptable for the feds to arrest state judges, and we have to make everyone know it. Call your representative and senators again about this!

Seeing claims about the judge "hiding" the defendant. Read the complaint, folks (written by DOJ). The guy was literally in the public area where the agents were. I guess he got on an elevator before they could get to him. The complaint says after letting the defendant exit she came back to the bench
