It's hard to pick a singular favorite book... If you are looking for a fun. light hearted read, Kristan Higgins is my go to. I loved the Nightingale by Kristin Hannah was wonderful, as was Remarkably Bright Creatures.

Newsom: The New Testament and Old Testament have one dominant thing in common—Matthew, Isaiah, Luke, Proverbs, go down the list—it’s about food, about serving those who are hungry. It’s not a suggestion; it’s core and essential to what it means to align with God’s will.

Can we get some focus on the perfidy of Speaker Mike Johnson?
So much of Trump’s excesses are made possible because Johnson has disabled the House as a check on the President. He has handed Trump his gavel symbolically and in reality.

Grijalva: I was looking at the example of now-Representative Walkinshaw from Virginia, who was elected two weeks ago Tuesday. The following Wednesday—less than 24 hours later—he was sworn in, with unofficial results.
So for me, apparently the rules have now changed in just two weeks.

The far-right, Trump and his cabinet keep saying we’re being dramatic or “snowflakes” for calling the right what they are: Fascist Nazis. We call them Fascist Nazis because they’re doing EXACTLY what the Nazis were doing in Germany back in the 30s and 40s, now in present day America.
![A bill has been introduced in Congress that would allow Marco Rubio to revoke the passports of U.S. citizens based on their views and speech, such as support for Palestine.
Representative Brian Mast (R-FL), the chair of the House Foreign Affairs Committee and former IOF soldier, introduced a provision to the Department of State Reorganization Act of 2025 that would grant Secretary of State Marco Rubio the authority to revoke or refuse to issue passports to U.S. citizens if he deems that they have "knowingly aided, assisted, abetted, or otherwise provided material support to an organization [he] has designated as a foreign terrorist organization."
Notably, Rubio used this as the basis to revoke student visas and detain activists who spoke out against the genocide in Gaza and the Israeli government, as well as in support of Palestine. Seth Stern, director of advocacy at Freedom of the Press Foundation, told The Intercept that the bill would open the door to "thought policing at the hands of one individual," saying "Marco Rubio has claimed the power to designate people terrorist supporters based solely on what they German Jews' Passports Declared Invalid
On October 5, 1938, the Reich Ministry of the Interior invalidates all German passports held by Jews. Jews must surrender their old passports, which will become valid only after the letter "J" has been stamped on them.
The government required Jews to identify themselves in ways that would permanently separate them from the rest of the German population. In an August 1938 law, authorities decreed that by January 1, 1939, Jewish men and women bearing first names of "non-Jewish" origin had to add "Israel" and "Sara," respectively, to their given names. All German Jews were obliged to carry identity cards that indicated their heritage, and, in the autumn of 1938, all Jewish passports were stamped with an identifying red letter "J"

In light of today’s SCOTUS decision, every person of color with an accent in the US should probably carry proof of citizenship with them at all times - while working and everywhere they go. If you don’t want to be in a detention facility awaiting a friend or relative to bring it.

The president of the United States just declared war, actual military war, not a metaphorical one, on a major American city, and one governed by his political opponents.

RFK Jr. rolled out that old chestnut again about how healthy Americans were in the 60’s, so here’s a fact check.
In 1965:
-42% of American adults smoked; it’s 11% now.
-The infant morality rate was 24.7/1000; it’s 5.6/1000 now.
-Overall life expectancy was 70 years; it's about 77 years now.
