Ms. Rachel doubles down support for children in Gaza
“It’s sad that people try to make it controversial when you speak out for children that are facing immeasurable suffering,” the YouTube educator said in a recent interview with Zeteo.

I think the fact that Marcy Rheintgen was inspired by Dorothy Day and went to pray the rosary is something that might strongly resonate with a lot of Catholics who haven't been engaged with this. At least if they ever hear about that part. It's going to enrage right wing Catholics though.
1. A transgender woman let legislators know she intended to use the bathroom in the Florida Capitol.
A contingent of officers waited for her, and stood outside the door.
When she stepped in, she was arrested and sent to a men's jail.

Nothing justifies disappearing a person. History is riddled with those who thought their proximity to power protected them until it didn’t. Those justifying Khalil’s disappearance are traitors to our country. I don’t say this lightly, and I mean it sincerely.
“We have not been able to get any more details about why he is being detained,” his lawyer, Amy Greer told the AP. “This is a clear escalation. The administration is following through on its threats.”
