We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾♀️.
Dictators are created due to cruelty, cowardice, & compliance! IF THEIR ASSES will ignore the Supreme Court, we can definitely IGNORE HIM!
I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period
Of course advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this.
The Secretary is unfit to lead.

The truth about this autism database proposed by RFK Jr…
So the Republican Party has historically blocked:

-Paid family & medical leave
-Universal childcare
-Universal pre-K
-Expanded Child Tax Credit
-Programs to support reproductive health
And they're wondering why more people aren't having children?

If we’re serious about more efficient government and better everyday life in America - which we all should be - that means actually improving government, not cutting health care for poor people and slashing support for veterans.

Remember when the economy was booming, stocks were soaring, we weren’t in a trade war with China, we didn’t have a day drunk for a Sec Def, a couch fucking Cabbage Patch doll for a VP, or an evil, incurious idiot for a president and we still funded cancer research?
Yeah, that was like three months ago.

Pope Francis lifted the world as he led the Church with his profound moral voice. As he returns to God, may his call to humility and concern for the least among us continue to resound.

The Loneliness No One Talks About
No one warns you about the loneliness that comes with growing.
The silence when old friendships stop fitting, but new ones haven’t formed.
The ache of outgrowing places, conversations, even versions of yourself.
Growth is beautiful, but it can also be isolating.
Keep growing anyway. You’ll find your kindred spirits.

I agree with this.
Not just one!

no one talks about how soul-affirming it is to get a “had so much fun with you” text after hanging out. not a meme. not a tiktok. not a link. just a plain little sentence saying “i like you. i like your company.” we live for that.
like when someone sends “still smiling from earlier” hours after the hang. or when they walk you to your car even though it’s 30 feet away. that’s the kind of stuff that ruins me.

Would you support Robert F Kennedy Jr banning all lab grown meat from ever being made in America ?
YES or NO ?
"can't gerrymander a statewide election". Jeff Jackson proved that is so. Sometimes gerrymandering backfires - Republicans may have picked up Jackson's seat, but he's now in a much more powerful job. If Nickel could win the Senate seat (though Tillis will be tougher to beat than Butt, as he has been very different as Senator than he was in the state House, while Butt hasn't changed from his extremism as a Congressman) it would mean forcing two Democrats into greater power.
Butt? Did you mean Ted Budd?
Tillis has actually developed into one of the more moderate, or at least bipartisan and constructive, GOP senators. But his state's bluer, or less red, than those of most others in his caucus so he's a natural target. And his relative bipartisanship might spark a primary challenge from the right which would make a pickup--amidst a GOP presidential midterm--easier. (Mark Robinson? Can we dream?)
Whoops! Typo!
Hard to believe the driver of the infamous "bathroom bill" actually has become reasonable and constructive in the Senate.
At least relatively speaking. Which isn't a particularly high bar to clear.
