I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Mike Johnson says he'll swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social as soon as she wants. Okay, so how about today?

This is Adelita Grijalva.

She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.

She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.

It makes me cry every time. Reminds me of You’re On Your Own Kid.

They’re baaack. 🤣

Repairs and all…

LBJ
Ford

And either way, can you please share this request? 🙏

Pope Leo XIV Wades Into Durbin Debate The number of bishops who have condemned Cardinal Cupich’s decision to honor Durbin with a 'lifetime achievement award' has risen to 10, including two bishops emeritus.

"'Someone who says I’m against abortion but is in favor of the death penalty is not really pro-life ... Someone who says I’m against abortion but I’m in agreement with the inhuman treatment of immigrants in the United States, I don’t know if that’s pro-life.'"

Donald Trump shut down the government because he doesn't want you to have healthcare.

But this isn’t just on him. Democrats MUST use their leverage to protect our rights, but it can’t end there.

Schumer and Jeffries can’t just go on TV or write letters, they need clear demands. We need action now.

Please yes.

I am proud to be born a Muslim.
I am proud to be born in Somalia.

None of you can change that no matter how much you rage tweet.

Ta-Nehisi Coates has written the best yet commentary on last week's events, while pundits, politicians and others have disgraced themselves in their whitewashing of of this man's legacy. www.vanityfair.com/news/story/c...

Stay focused.

The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

The murder of Charlie Kirk was criminal, wrong, and should be condemned.

And Charlie Kirk was a horrible, hateful man who spent his life radicalizing young people to embrace their worst demons by targeting women, people of color, immigrants, and the marginalized.

I refuse to sanitize him.

My 80-year-old aunt told me she "got tired of streaming" and is borrowing DVDs from her library again.

So I checked it out and they have an amazing selection. Blu-rays too, from Criterion, Kino Lorber and other boutique labels.

Every Democratic state that can do this, should do this.

Then, when we control the levels of power in DC, we ban gerrymandering for the entire country. Once and for all. Everyone playing by the same rules.

Listening to this audiobook (narrated by Elle Fanning) and laughing out loud. Really good! #blueskybooks #rufithorpe #margo’sgotmoneytroubles
