Mohsen Mahdawi was released on bail today from his illegal detention at the hands of the Trump administration. Good. In America, you are not supposed to end up in a jail cell for expressing your opinion. This is a major step forward in the fight against authoritarianism.

LET'S SHARE THE CRAP OUT OF THIS!

Your kids get a max of two toys and then grow up to work in the same factory as their father and grandfather screwing in tiny screws. It’s called The American Dream.

This is from The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson aired on May 20th, 1977. Carl Sagan says something very important, a strong message that didn't lose any validity since then.

Grace and dignity did attend the Pope’s funeral yesterday. How we do miss them. 🇺🇸

A new addition for my office wall.

i genuinely want to know what the hell is wrong with this guy. he is a total monster and i am a little interested in how he got to be this way.

The final honor guard for Pope Francis included migrants, prisoners, transgender people, the homeless and others selected by the Vicariate of Rome as a symbol of the late pope’s mission of inclusion and outreach. Read more from the funeral: wapo.st/3YdDGqM

“subdeals”?

Deporting children with cancer with or without due process doesn't send a message of strength. It confirms to a horrified world that the Russian asset currently occupying the White House is sinking deeper into psychopathy.

If he cannot carry out his agenda without breaking our laws, violating our Constitution, ignoring the judiciary, alienating our allies and crashing the economy… It’s a criminal agenda.

Everyone’s gonna be wide awake at his funeral. If only because they’ll play Kool & The Gang’s “Celebration” at full volume.

Imagine being an unfathomably wealthy 50-something man, and devoting REAL EFFORT to trying to falsely convince a bunch of teenagers you’re good at video games.

Congrats Donald! You definitely earned it.

The world is on Zelensky’s side. Zelensky applauded by world leaders upon entering church.

He’s so good at this.

Give Russia Florida.

As those who have studied history understand, an autism registry is a five alarm fire… Are you paying ATTENTION, yet?!

On Yom HaShoah, we remember one of history’s darkest chapters — we mourn the millions of lives stolen in the Holocaust. Let today serve as a recommitment to our fight against antisemitism, bigotry, and hate. I’m holding the Jewish community in my heart.

When the moment came, Harvard didn’t hedge or flinch—it stood up. A reminder that integrity isn’t complicated, it’s just rare.

We join our Catholic partners in mourning the passing of Pope Francis. He spent years building & sustaining Jewish relationships in his native Argentina & continued to develop the Church's relationship with the Jewish community as pope. He will be remembered as a man of modesty, warmth & peace.

🕯️🇻🇦🇺🇦 Zelensky: Millions of people around the world are mourning the tragic news of Pope Francis’s passing. He knew how to give hope, ease suffering through prayer, and foster unity. He prayed for peace in Ukraine and for Ukrainians. Eternal memory

Pope Francis earned the title “The People’s Pope” by showing kindness and mercy, standing for love above hate and extending a hand to help all people. He led by example, and his humility and dedication to God brought people together. His loss is great, but his impact is greater.

1. There has been a lot of attention, rightly, on the Trump administration disappearing immigrants to El Salvador But something that has gotten much less attention is the Trump administration WRONGFULLY DETAINING US CITIZENS they "suspect" are undocumented immigrants.

An innocent man, picked up by “mistake,” must not be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. Mr. President. Obey the courts. Obey our Constitution. Bring him home immediately.
