A federal judge has ordered a hearing to determine whether the criminal case against Kilmar Abrego Garcia stems from a vindictive prosecution, citing evidence that it may be. Thank you!

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

His last spoken word before being shot was "violence".

Yeah, hoping people ignore the Tangerine Twit on this.

I'm not arguing that he wasn't a horrible person. He did a lot of damage through what he said and did.

This does NOT, however, give anyone license to kill him. Political violence is NEVER warranted. There are a lot of ways to take away someone's bully pulpit, and assassination is not on that list.

Horrific to hear that Charlie Kirk was shot today in Utah. Political violence must be always and totally rejected. Praying for him and all who may have been injured or impacted.

Wow. Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. just single-handedly ruled that Congress doesn’t really control the purse strings. This is becoming a massive crisis for checks and balances and the separation of powers.

Conservative activist Charlie Kirk dies after being shot at Utah college event Charlie Kirk, the CEO and co-founder of the conservative youth organization Turning Point USA, has died after being shot Wednesday at a Utah college event, President Donald Trump says.

Let me be clear:

Charlie Kirk was an odious person whose divisive and inaccurate rhetoric inflamed people and had dangerous consequences.

Having said that...

HE. DID. NOT. DESERVE. TO. BE. SHOT.

Political violence is NEVER appropriate.

MAGA’s really out in full force today, guess we struck a nerve. Lots of comments like β€œliberals don’t know anything about respect” and β€œTrump was just showing respect to Putin.” Uh huh… respect for who exactly? Putin? Russia? Yeah, no! We’re good.

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

The Trump administration fired Librarian of Congress Dr. Carla D. Hayden as part of their sweeping book ban efforts. One of the titles removed? Freckleface Strawberry, a children’s book about self-acceptance. Seriously, who gets offended by that?

Rome has a pope who listens to Jesus.

Washington has a president who listens to Putin.

My only big request was "NOT CARDINAL BURKE!!!!"

In general, I was just hoping for someone similar to Pope Francis.

This photograph captures Sir David Attenborough seated outdoors on the rugged terrain of Skomer Island. Behind him, the ocean and coastal cliffs form a scenic backdrop under a clear sky. Sir David, dressed in a khaki jacket and light trousers, looks towards the camera with a gentle expression, exuding a sense of warmth, calm, and wisdom. Around him, puffins can be seen flying and perched on the rocky ground, illuminated in rays of golden sunlight as the sun sets behind the cliffs.

Happy 99th birthday to the man who gave voice to the wild. πŸŽ‰

Sir David Attenborough, thank you for a lifetime dedicated to the natural world, and for sharing its story with wisdom, wonder, and grace.

You've inspired generations to fall in love with nature.
