Maria Shriver, niece of JFK:

He was a man interested in the arts, culture, education, language, history... It is beyond comprehension that the president has sought to rename this great memorial.

C’mon my fellow Americans! Wake up! This is not dignified. This is not funny... It’s downright weird.

25% of ACA enrollees have signaled they may drop coverage in 2026 if subsidies expire. Millions of families could face skyrocketing premiums, surprise medical bills, & gaps in essential care. Democrats are fighting to extend protections, while Trump signals no change.

I took a little comfort in this. Though the National Security Strategy is alarming, does Trump really have the discipline or the cognitive function to implement this? It would be disastrous to cut economic and military ties w/Europe…and

Americans are paying higher costs in the Trump/GOP affordability crisis brought on by Trump/GOP’s tariffs (taxes on American consumers & businesses)! Bills continue piling up with increased costs for electricity, groceries, health care etc.! You pay more $ all so Trump/GOP & billionaires get more $!

Antizionism is a hate movement built on distorting history, outright propaganda and terrorism apologia.

This is not progressive, nor is it the foundation for a just and pluralistic society.

In 2016, Whiskey Pete Hegseth bluntly warned that Trump would push unlawful military orders and abandon anyone who refused to break the law for him. These people weren’t fooled; they saw the risk to the country and the military.

They chose complicity over integrity, and they’re still doing it.

Many Americans are forced to take less effective medication because even with their healthcare premiums doubled and tripled their insurance companies won’t cover the more effective treatments. #TrumpAffordabilityCrisis

This is a disturbing post on X by a disturbed individual. Pete Hegseth is a murderer.

The Diaspora created productive Jewish communities throughout the world. Here's a beautiful thread about Mizrahi Jews.

"Celebrating Mizrahi Heritage Month, a time to honor the Jewish communities who built their lives across the Middle East, North Africa, and Central Asia for thousands of years. From Baghdad to Djerba to Bukhara, their traditions continue to shape Jewish life today."

If nothing else, the last nine months should have made it clear that elections matter. But what’s remarkable about America is that we have the power, as citizens, to change this country by voting. Go to IWillVote.com.

There's money for a ballroom/bunker. There's money to fire live ammunition over I-5. There's money to send the National Guard to take over peaceful cities.

But there's no money to feed Americans who need help to provide nutritious meals to their families.
