Senator Chris Van Hollen says that he hasn’t been able to meet with Kilmar Abrego Garcia nor has he been able to have a phone call with him.

He doesn’t know his health status.

Unacceptable. El Salvador needs to show proof of life!!!!!

One of the founding acts of Rome was to create a space in the most visible and sacred part of the city where refugees from neighboring states could seek asylum, gain citizenship, and receive property, no questions asked; everyone welcomed and benefited from it. Dionysius of Halicarnassus 2.15.3-4:

This asshole is:

1. Railing against someone who actually practices their faith as Jesus instructed, something he never does;

2. Railing against people who release criminals from jails when he released over a thousand just this week; and

3. Railing against refugees, when Jesus was one in Egypt.

If you have Republican reps or senators, now's a great time to call them up. Tell them you can't afford to have your businesses screwed by these tariffs and tell them you're blaming them if this goes through.

CAT POEM

Most cats have floof
(including beneath)
With fiercely sharp claws
And pointy white teeth

They push things off tables
And like catnip treats
They have cute li'l beans
On their fuzzy small feets

They barf on the rug
And shred all your stuff
But a cat in my lap?
I can’t get enough

Rest In Peace, Jules Feiffer. Died just shy of his 96th birthday, but he was still as vital as ever, plugging away on his next book. The way 2025's been going, I'm not surprised we lost our greatest living cartoonist less than a month into it.

I did this the last time the Tangerine Shitgoblin took office. It offended many, many horrible people… including David Duke, who was so mad, he Tweeted about it 3 times in 24 hours.

This is an excellent, in-depth article on what leaving the Paris Climate agreement means for the US by @borenbears.bsky.social

One conclusion: "Several experts say the US will lose out on a trillion dollar plus renewable energy boom, leaving other countries like China to rule the green economy."

When you *bring your church into the world of politics*

“I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared. There are gay, lesbian, transgender children, Democratic, Republican, independent families — some who fear for their lives." Bishop Budde is a national heroine. 💙

I encourage you to listen to what Bishop Budde said in church with Trump in attendance.

She didn’t chastise him, rather she plead with him to show mercy and compassion towards those who’ve been targeted. As Christian as you can get.

Trumps response…berate and bash her. Evil is back.

MAGA is saying Bishop Budde is “satanic” for asking Trump to show mercy. Jesus said “blessed are the merciful for they shall be shown mercy.” So by their own logic Jesus himself was a satanist.
