Hey America, if you were a Christian nation, you’d be feeding the poor, not yelling at them for using food stamps.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.

They talk about killing narco-terrorists, but Trump just pardoned this guy.

Maybe putting a dozen narcissistic poser Fox hosts in charge of sprawling federal agencies with millions of combined employees and vastly important responsibilities with enormous power wasn’t the greatest plan.

Average electricity cost increase since Jan:

Missouri ⬆️ 37%
Iowa ⬆️ 30%
North Dakota ⬆️ 30%
Oklahoma ⬆️ 30%
New Jersey ⬆️ 27%
Nebraska ⬆️ 25%
Montana ⬆️ 25%
Wyoming ⬆️ 23%

NATIONWIDE ⬆️ 11%

Instead of working to lower costs, Trump is boosting power-hungry AI data centers.

"I don't feel like I'm particularly political. I'm certainly not weighing in on lots of specific policies....I mean, look, maybe it's a policy disagreement to say masked men should not be forcing Americans to show their papers."

The inflation rate has worsened.

Massie: “[Speaker Johnson is] trying to say the rich, powerful men who flew to Epstein Island are the victims now. The only way a ‘Christian man’ can stand up there and sell a lie like that is if he’s already decided in his head that protecting them is somehow okay.”

Ari Melber: Over the past three decades, far-right extremists led 220 attacks, compared to far-left extremists leading 42 attacks. That's roughly five times [more]

If you look at the body count... far-right extremist violence led ~520 deaths, the left-wing attacks resulted in the death of about 78.

Pritzker is right. They want to normalize troops in cities so they can steal every election just like Putin does.

This from @jessicatarlov.bsky.social may be the most efficient use of 76 seconds of Fox News airtime I've ever seen.
Jessica Tarlov: I'm stunned that Republicans want to draw attention to this because... the senators who were part of this investigation are not just random names that he picked off a list, but people who were named in Jack Smith's charging documents for trying to turn over a free and fair election.

Dear @apnews.com

The republicans control congress. Democrats did not vote down anything. If the GOP wanted to fund the government, they could have changed the rules to pass a CR with a simple majority like they did 11 days ago to approve 48 trump appointees at once.

Fix your headline.

I’m encouraging Dems to swing for the fences on this.

Since they’re going to have to rebuild American democracy anyway, they might as well do some great things.
When the Democratic Party comes back to federal power - and I fear this could take quite a while - they will face a true "deep state" that is deeply hostile to its power and liberal democracy.

Democrats will have to not just fire many people but also abolish whole institutions to protect both.
