At least 404 people have been killed, with 562 injured, Gaza’s Health Ministry said.

Beshear: When I vetoed the nastiest anti-LGBTQ+ bill during my election year, I explained why I did it. My faith teaches me that all children are children of God. I wanted those children, who were being hated on, to know their governor cares for them… my faith tells me that’s my job

1/🧵 Judges across ideological lines are ruling against Trump at strikingly similar rates (84% liberal, 86% centrist, 82% conservative). This isn't partisan opposition to Trump—it's the judiciary functioning as intended by cutting across partisan lines to uphold the Constitution.

Trump has seized the archives, the article explains, because he feels the prior archivist played a role in revealing he had classified documents piled up in an unsecured bathroom at his tacky golf club.
Once again, we all have to suffer because he got caught criming.

But not Egypt, which may have sent Trump $10M in 2017 and has a history of bribing others.

The two hurricanes that hit Tampa Bay this year caused an estimated $50 billion in damages. 100% of Samaritan's Purse expenditures (which are around $500 million a year) are ministry related. Are you gonna pray the power lines to go back up?
REPORTER: Any talk on having money instead of doing through FEMA, to go local groups?
TRUMP: Yeah. That's what I want to do. We want to bring it locally, so that a state takes care of its problem, and then they can bring it down to a local level like Samaritan's Purse and Franklin Graham
