Things i believe

Facts matter and no one holds a corner of the market on the truth.
The marginalized and oppressed need to be heard.
Evangelicals who shut out immigrants are mere nationalists
Character matters because leadership descends from character

Oh, it was *Zelensky* that started the war? Like when a bully claims their victim started the fight because their face hurt his fist?

What makes this visual even more stunning is that it was made possible by people who said their #1 concern when voting was the economy. What idiots.

This is total BS, coming from a state that is leading the country in measles cases. They are taking away the rights of transgender folks rather than promote measles vaccination!

I continue to speak out against every bill that attempts to remove trans people from public life. And I will continue to do so for as long as I draw breath.

I hope one day the government will leave my people alone.

"The big thing that's impacting us now is the demoralizing work environment, intentional chaos, uncertainty over our jobs," says one CDC staffer.

"In my 24 years at the CDC, I have never seen the morale hit that is going on right now."

Trump and Brain Worms just cut funding for 9/11 survivors -- and firefighters, police & first responders.

A reminder that during Trump's first term he siphoned almost $4 million from 9/11 first responders fund.

First he stole from them & now he cuts them off.

The AP should stop covering Trump events. Instead send those White House reporters out into the field to report on the harms and repercussions of his policies.

The U.S. public never needed coverage of pseudo-events anyway.
Associated Press: “Today we were informed by the White House that if AP did not align its editorial standards with President Donald Trump’s executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America, AP would be barred from accessing an event in the Oval Office.“

“Frankly I have difficulty understanding how a member of the Bar could state unequivocally that this is a constitutional order,” Senior U.S. District Judge John Coughenour, a Reagan appointee, told the Trump DOJ attorney. “It just boggles my mind.”
Federal judge blocks Trump’s executive order on birthright citizenship nationwide, calling it “blatantly unconstitutional.”

“I’ve been on the bench for over four decades, I can’t remember another case where the question presented is as clear as this one is.”

BOOM! Bishop Mariann Budde has responded to her critics who told her to apologize to Donald Trump.

“I am not going to apologize for asking for mercy for others.”

Smash that repost if you agree she owes Trump ZERO apologies!! 🦋
