Phang: We don’t need the Ten Commandments hanging in Texas schools. What we need is common-sense gun legislation—so the kids can live.
If my kid goes to a public school in Texas and they can’t come home alive, I don’t give a shit about the Ten Commandments being posted on the wall.

And it’s coming from inside the house
BREAKING: Scott Pelley just risked everything to make one thing clear:
The attack on free speech isn’t coming—it’s already here.
Journalists are being silenced, critics are being punished, and most of the media’s playing dead.
This is state-sponsored suppression. This is dictatorship in real time.

Crockett: Right now, it seems like you don’t care about the constitution unless it’s the second amendment and that’s misinterpreted as well. There’s other amendments.. And we don’t get to just change it because our fearless leader says that he doesn’t like it

This is outrageous. Republicans are blocking every single Democratic amendment that would make the voucher bill even slightly less devastating for our public schools.
This is straight out of Project 2025 — an authoritarian takeover of our state is happening before our eyes. #txlege

"the president defied a Supreme Court ruling to return a man mistakenly sent to a gulag... and spoke of sending Americans to foreign concentration camps.
This is the beginning of an American policy of state terror, and it has to be identified as such to be stopped"

Balloons don't go to heaven. They fall back to Earth and many birds and wildlife become entangled resulting in death. There are many other ways to celebrate life that aren't harmful to the environment and wildlife!

Ossoff: He’s so consumed by his efforts to secure revenge, crush his enemies, and conquer Greenland that he’s doing nothing for the people who elected him. His entire domestic agenda is tax breaks for the wealthy, rounding up immigrants, revenge, and centralizing as much power as he can..

I’ve said it before and I’m sure I’ll say it a thousand times more: We are not a Christian nation. We are a nation where you are free to be a Christian. — Your religion guides you, not all of us. It’s as simple as that.

THIS is more powerful than CNN , MSNBC, The Post will ever be.
You can broadcast for 9 mins on a declining medium, or engage here and start a real discussion.

I'm going to keep shouting this but we need more people to know that librarians LOVE being told to order books. Go to them, tell them what you want. They want to carry the Graphic novels you crave!! Doing so helps everyone involved!!
