The United States is a nation of immigrants seeking freedom and opportunity. From pilgrims fleeing religious persecution to waves of newcomers escaping famine, war, and tyranny, America became a refuge for the oppressed. Immigration has shaped its culture, economy, and ideals of liberty.

It’s appalling that as bodies were still being recovered in Texas, DHS scrapped a $3M grant to fix the “last mile” comms they now admit failed. This reckless decision shows a shocking disregard for lives and lessons not yet learned.
NEW: Sec. Noem has now admits "last mile" disaster communications weren't up to par in the Texas catastrophe. But while bodies were still being recovered on Tuesday DHS canceled a $3 million grant focused on improving precisely those kinds of "last mile" comms. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/dhs-c...

This is authoritarian behavior, plain and simple. Arresting elected officials for speech—without a crime—undermines democracy and threatens every American’s freedom. We must reject this abuse of power before it becomes normalized.
The President of the United States is advocating for arresting the duly-elected Governor of California for his SPEECH
He thereafter admitted that the Governor of California had committed NO CRIME—but he still wants him arrested
Spend as much time as you need processing what that means for America

One should take care when inserting parts of their bodies into objects that they aren’t meant for that purpose.

As a father of three daughters, I believe all Americans deserve equal rights—regardless of gender or state. There’s no law controlling a man’s body. My daughters deserve the same. Equal protection under the 14th Amendment must apply to everyone, everywhere.

Lying undermines the integrity of a Christian witness and distorts the truth of the Gospel. Scripture repeatedly warns against deceit, highlighting that dishonesty is incompatible with a life rooted in Christ.

The idea that universities should conduct research only when “in sync with the administration and what the administration is trying to accomplish” stands in direct tension with the U.S. Constitution, particularly the First Amendment’s protections of free inquiry, speech, and expression. (1)
Linda McMahon: "Universities should continue to be able to do research as long as they're abiding by the laws and in sync, I think, with the administration and what the administration is trying to accomplish."

In a democracy governed by the rule of law, no one—including the president—is above accountability. Accusing a president of committing a crime is not itself a crime, especially when based on credible evidence or legal investigation.

Celebrate the courage in standing firm against oppression and holding individuals accountable who seek to break from the rule of law. In times when it is easier to remain silent, integrity and commitment to justice speak volumes. @muellershewrote.com

The pattern in the behavior is consistent. Time to pull back the curtain and expose the "naked" cosplay emperor...
Reminder: the Taylor Swift and Bruce Springsteen posts are just to distract from the Qatari "gift" or the fact that he's trying to rip Medicare and Medicaid from millions of Americans right now.

Please take a moment to read this article. The men and women who are incarcerated aren’t always evil people beyond care, compassion or redemption.
The small things in life, like befriending a kitten, are often taken for granted. Not so much in this case. It’s a lovely story…

This is one of our most read stories on Bluesky.
"Perhaps prison would have persisted this way forever. Perhaps our granite hearts and iron wills would have never crumbled. Perhaps the prison mentality, that we be cold and heartless, would have endured.
Perhaps. But then there were kittens."

When Kittens Came to My Prison, I Had Not Petted One in 15 Years
I had not touched a cat in 15 years when an orange kitten wandered over to sit with me in the grass.
