This is racist and dangerous. Last I checked, Somalians are Black and Rep. Omar is a colleague. Where are the @housedemocrats.bsky.social? The @blackcaucus.bsky.social ?

Do not allow these insults to go unanswered.
Trump calls Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) "garbage," says that Somalians don't belong in the U.S. because they "do nothing but complain... do nothing but bitch"

I swore an oath to the Constitution in 1986. I've upheld it through 25 years of service and every day since I retired.

If Trump's trying to intimidate me, it won’t work. I’ve given too much to our country to be silenced by bullies who care more about power than the Constitution.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

So on Epstein, the Democratic position should be "Trump should resign." If you are a Democratic elected, practice saying "We demand the president's resignation" in front of a mirror as many times as it takes until the dry-heaving that comes from having a phobia about actually doing politics passes.

"Pope Leo said Scripture emphasizes the question that will be posed at the end of the world:

'How did you receive the foreigner, did you receive him and welcome him, or not? I think there is a deep reflection that needs to be made about what is happening'..."

Pope Leo calls for ‘deep reflection’ about treatment of detained migrants in U.S.
“Many people who have lived for years and years and years, never causing problems, have been deeply affected by what is going on right now,” Chicago-born pope says.

There is something deeply wrong with a country that chooses to make running for their lives part of kids’ back to school ritual.

When we finally passed a gun safety bill in 2022, mass shooting began to drop.

But it was an unacceptably small start. We must do more.

Back to school should never mean back to school shootings. This is the devastating reality of America’s gun violence crisis—and it will not end until lawmakers take meaningful action.
