To make a serious point:

What made Francis a good (in relative terms) Pope, was regret.

He was vocal that he felt he had made mistakes during the Argentine Junta era. He was determined to do better.

The best leaders accept their flaws and channel them to do better. He was a unique modern Pope.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

Well, mercy retrograde works against them, too.
I saw the work by Olga Lautman and he findings were disturbing: Steven Witkoff was in Russia when he was added to the signal chat. Russia has infiltrated Signal and used against Ukrainians. Very possible they have the classified signal info:

Dear Democratic Party,
Ignore the growing popularity of AOC at your own peril. She may not be your chosen one, but the masses are latching on to her and they will have a voice in this.

Good news out of Colorado! A Federal judge orders Colorado district to return banned books to school libraries. Good work! www.denverpost.com/2025/03/19/e...
Federal judge orders Colorado district to return banned books to school libraries
The order prohibits the school board from removing books “because the district disagrees with the views expressed therein or merely to further their preferred political or religious orthodoxy.”

AOC: I want to live in an America that guarantees healthcare to every person.

I want to live in an America that has a living wage for every person

I want to live in an America where you have free speech to express yourself and not be afraid of being put on a list or deported.

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado.

11,000 people showed up.

Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

AOC: What they like to call as radical, I believe is common sense.

I believe that when a person gets sick, they shouldn’t go bankrupt in the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Common sense

I believe that a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live. Common sense...

Tell everyone in Wisconsin
Trump's tariffs will negatively impact almost 300,000 Wisconsin jobs—the highest percentage of any state.

77% of those affected voted for the person creating this harm.

"Did Trump just defy a court order?"

YES, motherfuckers. Why in the fuck is that so hard for people to say? The judge told him to stop doing something, he did it anyway, IN DEFIANCE OF THE JUDGES RULINGS!

WHY ARE PEOPLE COMMITTED TO ADDRESSING FASCISM IN THE PASSIVE VOICE????

I know this first hand. When I was a child, my entire community was branded as spies and sabateurs, justifying our internment inside barbed wire camps for years without due process, trial or charge.

Dreamt last night of a highway lined with protesters-two groups: the anti tRs and the facsists.All wearing red, white and blue.All believing they’re patriots.Waiting for the incendiary moment.I worried that in the heat of that moment, given the uniformity in color, the enemy and ally would be muted.

I had a stunning dream last night about teaching discourse through shapes. It will be the last essay in my memoir “Reaching for the Pearl” about losing my daughter on 9/11. And it explains(to me at least)how we got Fotus. Worlds collide. I love sleeping #AmWriting #memoir #AmericanShame
