Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%. 

Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

I do not believe just because you’re opposed to abortion, that makes you pro life
In fact I think in many cases, your morality is deeply lacking if all you want is a child born, but not a child fed, not a child educated, not a child housed
And why would you think that you don’t 
Because you don’t want any tax money to go there
That’s not pro-life
That’s pro-birth
We need a much broader conversation
on what the morality of pro life

Sister Joan said it best when describing the so called “Pro Life” people

What she describes is how Red States treat Children, they hide behind Religion and their policies don’t feed or educate our Children, our Children who are the future instead tax breaks for the wealthy

THE PURPOSE OF EDUCATION IN A FREE SOCIETY:

Tim Walz eulogizes slain lawmaker as a historic Minnesotan — and friend After a hug with Kamala Harris, Gov. Tim Walz eulogized slain state Rep. Melissa Hortman as “the most consequential speaker in Minnesota history.”

It's incredible that neither the president nor VP was here. The politicization of all facets of American life is coming from the White House. No other American president would have failed to pay their respects. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...

I wonder how many people realize that America is now literally at war *solely* because Trump hates black people

Obama signed the Iran Nuclear Deal; Iran stopped enrichment; Trump ended the Deal to spite Obama; he was told enrichment would restart; it did

This is *Trump’s* war

Duckworth to Hegseth: "You are blowing through money like my fellow cadets and I did in our first liberty after basic camp. Luckily I didn't end up with a questionable tattoo ... you're just an unqualified yes man who can't tell the president how to keep Americans safe."

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee:

“Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

Earlier today, after nearly 15 years as an Assistant United States Attorney, I resigned as Chief of the Criminal Division at the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Middle District of Tennessee.
It has been an incredible privilege to serve as a prosecutor with the Department of Justice, where the only job description I've ever known is to do the right thing, in the right way, for the right reasons. I wish all of my colleagues at the U.S. Attorney's Office in Nashville and across the Department the best as they seek to do justice on behalf of the American people.

Around the time that Kilmar Abrego Garcia was indicted in the Middle District of Tennessee, the chief of the criminal division in that district posted this on LinkedIn:

“Earlier today, after nearly 15 years as an Assistant United States Attorney, I resigned…”

Women sue Kansas over law that disregards end-of-life wishes during pregnancy Three women and two physicians in Kansas are suing the state over its law that invalidates the advance directives of pregnant patients.

Three women and two doctors are suing Kansas over a law that nullifies a person’s decisions about end-of-life care if they are pregnant, arguing that it violates the right to personal autonomy and equal protection under the state constitution.

At 9:00 AM this morning the entire Pentagon got an email inviting them to a “Christian prayer and worship service” from the Office of the Secretary of Defense. A Cabinet member directly violating the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment.

Rural kids should be able to learn, earn, and live right here…in our rural communities.

That means good public schools and roads with shoulders and fast internet and healthcare access. Not one or the other.

I’ve been fighting for rural communities for years. Trump Republicans won’t stop me.

Rubio tweeted:
Today another transformer explosion at the German Dam in Bolivar State caused another massive blackout.

The journalist Germán Dam replied:
Senator @marcorubio, an important transformer exploded in Bolívar and that, in part, again collapsed the Venezuelan Electric System;
however it was not in a dam, much less german.
My name is Germán Dam, I am one of the journalists who published the information.

Rubio is now the first person to hold both the offices of Sec of State & National Security Advisor since Kissinger.

Our enemies are ROTFL, our friends cringe & none of us should be sleeping well knowing the 47 regime is relying on brilliance like this…
