Good statement from the US conference of Catholic Bishops

Things to know about Epstein hugger Ken Starr: prosecuted Bill Clinton for lying about consensual (if inappropriate) sex, got fired from Baylor University for doing nothing about an on-campus rape epidemic.

Amen. And another sexual predator, Andrew Cuomo, was almost every powerful person's choice for mayor of New York.

In the meantime, we can't afford healthcare?

It astounds me that ppl still talk about Cuomo losing because Silwa didn't leave the race. There is no reason to think that all of Silwa's votes would have gone to Cuomo. And besides, Mamdani won by over 50% of the vote.

It's tragic that there is no democratic leadership in Congress to support the huge efforts being made on the ground.

Doesn't seem like much of a cover up. It's there- right in front of us.

AOC: "This is about, do you understand the assignment of fighting fascism right now? And they assignment is to come together across difference no matter what."

Yes. It is you and the atmosphere you built in the campaign Mr Cuomo.

I'm happy that Mamdani won. But I won't let that get in the way of my celebrating Cuomo losing.

I’ve been wishing I could vote for Mamdani too. And am holding my breath for his victory. And hope to one day be able to vote for him, or some other dem socialist, for president

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

How long has Cuomo actually lived in NYC? The city. Not the suburbs.

God I am listening to @aoc.bsky.social unapologetically celebrating cities -- urbanity, diversity, creativity, decency -- and it is giving me life.

Nothing but respect for *my* president.

Seriously listen to this. This is it. This is the message, this is the tone, this is it! Why aren't all Dems talking like this? Why aren't they clearly articulating & defending their values? Why isn't AOC being celebrated & elevated by the people who claim to want to hear this stuff from Dems?

As a retired lawyer I’m skeptical that ABA should be looking to big law firms for their attorneys. These are the firms that represent corporate interests. Many courageous and superb lawyers in smaller firms.

I suppose late is better than never- but, at this point, I'm not so sure.

Why is White House destruction so important? Aside from its grotesque and undemocratic replacement, it is blatantly illegal. Trump is telling us again that we are not a country of law.
