In his final message, Francis shared, “There can be no peace without freedom of religion, freedom of thought, freedom of expression.”

He called for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and urged for a solution to the ongoing conflict in Yemen.

“It's hypocrisy to call yourself a Christian and chase away a refugee or someone seeking help, someone who is hungry or thirsty, toss out someone who is in need of my help.
If I say I am Christian, but do these things, I'm a hypocrite."

- Pope Francis 🕊️

My relationship with the Catholicism in which I was raised is, uh, complicated. But Francis embodied an attitude that a world working toward God is one that always has an eye on the people who struggle, one that reminds us that the journey to a better future cannot finish until everyone gets there.

In Pope Francis’s last public address, he preached care of the marginalized, the vulnerable, and migrants, saying: “I would like all of us to hope anew and to revive our trust in others, including those who are different than ourselves.” May we heed his wish.

Pope Francis led by example, centering his life and papacy on being a voice for the less fortunate. He inspired us all to better embody the teachings of Christ: love, compassion, and justice.

Gwen and I are joining Catholics and Christians around the world in mourning his loss.

Without due process, how do you know he's a criminal?

Here's the thing, if due process proved Garcia WAS a terrorist, if the government could show real evidence and prove its case before the court, then Democrats wouldn't have leg to stand on. So why won't they do it?

Yeah, you know why.

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism.

If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone.

Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

Bernie Sanders made a surprise appearance at Coachella 2025 last night.

So he went from the LA rally to Coachella. He's 83 and fighting like this. This should be an inspiration to all of us. If he can do this, we can all do a little more.

Musk has previously stated that DOGE staffers would cost taxpayers nothing. This $1.3 million figure, coupled with previous WIRED reporting about DOGE salaries, tells a different story. Musk did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Please share!!! This is getting ridiculous—they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.

I'm not a programming guy but MSNBC and CNN should be airing this Cory Booker thing in the same way you take over programming if there's a no-hitter or a basketball player with 60 points in three quarters. It's a physical feat! Cut in for this kind of thing. Costs nothing, gooses ratings, good TV.
