Memo to Mike Johnson and his White Christian Nationalist ilk: We march not because we hate America but because we hate what they're doing to America.

I was told today would be full of violence from the left and that everyone “hated America.”

I saw peaceful patriots who love America and hate racist fascist rapist President Epstein.

Momentum is growing for a Youth Climate Corps, a bold new public program to put young people to work protecting our communities & tackling the climate crisis.

It's built for this moment.

🧵 Who's the most informed about American politics? Very lefty seculars.

My new FREE study @sfjournal.bsky.social finds atheists/agnostics, especially if they are politically sorted, score higher on knowledge of basic civics & current politics than other groups. 1/ academic.oup.com/sf/advance-a...

Well, at least Trump is clear about what he has always stood for. Hate.
Trump at Charlie Kirk's memorial service:

"He did not hate his opponents. He wanted the best for them. That's where I disagreed with Charlie. I HATE my opponents."

This is powerful.

Nine former CDC leaders just came together to defend SCIENCE.

Maybe it’s time we LISTEN TO THEM—
not the loud voices spreading MISINFORMATION.

Science saves lives. Lies cost them

Remembering Jack Layton.
Jack talked me into running for politics. He said Canada needed people who were not afraid to stand up.
I believed him. I still do.
Jack loved this country. He believed in the goodness of the Canadian people.
I try to carry that light with me.
Jack is with the angels.
