Padilla: If this is how DHS responds to a senator with a question you can only imagine what they're doing to farm workers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California.

The so-called “moderate” GOP position on Medicaid cuts is no cuts above $500 billion.
Hello? That would mean 18 million children and 2 million adults with disabilities lose health care coverage, according to the latest estimates.
What’s “moderate” about that?

I’m gonna make it simple since it seems a lot of the liberals on this site right now are having trouble with this. It was illegal to protect Anne Frank and it was legally required to turn her in to the Nazis.
If your reliance on the law dictates your morals you have already lost to the fascists.

Yes.
The media is now obsessed with remorseful Trump voters, white voters, who are now losing their jobs or upset about inflation. I don’t want to hear from them. I want to hear from the Black voters who stood in line for hours, only to be turned away because their name was purged from the rolls.

Man, I love Billy Bragg ❤️
Imagine you were the richest man in the world. You could have anything you wanted, go anywhere you wished, do whatever took you fancy. How would you spend your weekend? Depriving the poorest people in the world of food and healthcare and boasting about it?

If your Christianity causes you to be offended by someone asking the most powerful person in the country to be merciful towards the powerless, then you have profoundly misunderstood the teachings of Jesus Christ.

Our Emmy cat passed this morning. She was the most perfect expression of what a cat should be that I’ve ever known. At night she’d climb on my hip & sleep; the warm weight of her was the first thing I’d feel upon waking. My soft, clever, beloved girl. I’ll miss you more than I can even begin to say.

You couldn't make it up.
The New York Times, so active in getting people repeatedly infected, slips out a quiet little article saying that Covid infections can raise the risk of heart problems for years.
Can we please stop pretending?

Speaker Mike Johnson is begging the Ethics Committee not to release the results of its investigation into alleged child sex trafficker Matt Gaetz — a man who could soon be Attorney General.
The coverup is right in the open. Share to demand the report release!
