He is Christ the King. How will we serve him? He answers in a whisper, “I am the hungry person on line at the food pantry; I am the abused child; I am the convict in a prison cell; I am those living in fear. These are the faces you are to serve. They are mine! Remember them as I remember you!”

Let's think about why the Russians leaked it and why Trump is pushing for it at this particular moment. Could they think his days in the White House are numbered and they need to grab whatever they can?

A #BlueskyLullaby for tonight: "Donna" was both recorded and released in September 1958. Ritchie Valens was just 17; he would not live to 18. His high school girlfriend who was the subject of this song is, I gather, still alive. See you around.

Full list of degrees not classed as ‘professional’ by Trump admin
Certain students may no longer receive the same loan for their studies as what counts as "professional" will determine how much they get.

“This was not a harmless mistake. It was the direct result of callous and chaotic policies by the Trump administration,” said Gov. Dan McKee. "Moreover, ICE’s failure to exercise even a shred of due diligence is shameful and underscores just how broken and dangerous these federal policies are.”
ICE agents “surrounded the judge’s car and demanded everyone to exit the vehicle, threatening to smash in the windows if they did not comply.”
Justice Frat Boy: “If the person is a US citizen or otherwise lawfully in the United States, that individual will be free to go after the brief encounter.”

Trump is a stochastic terrorism machine.
"Slotkin told NBC News that she has received "100s & 100s, if not, you know, closer to 1,000 threats" since the video first picked up traction & then Trump suggested on Thursday that her message was "SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH!"

The administration’s rush toward war with Venezuela is reckless and unlawful.
I won’t stand by while we’re marched into another disastrous intervention. Congress must reassert its constitutional authority and stop this escalation.

This is a TERRIBLE idea in Florida! It would trash our environment and hurt tourism and fishing, two top industries here.

Tourism remains steady, but we face some headwinds from tariffs, deportations, and the economy. That’s why I am proud to support the Visit USA Act!
