No comment, beyond the fact that in 2022 an avg. of 7 children a DAY died from gun violence in the USA.

No comment, except that gun violence disproportionately impacts children of color.

No comment, but gun deaths are the leading cause of death in children, ahead of car crashes and cancer.

Let us not forget the #UnsungHeroes during the Minnesota school shooting...we're so wrapped up in other things that we fail to honor those who sacrificed themselves to save others. This is one.

The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

An apology is insufficient. Everyone email foxfeedback@foxnews.com and tell them Kilmeade must be fired immediately. #GoodTrouble
“I apologize for that extremely callous remark”

Starting November 1st, New Mexico will become the first state to offer free universal childcare to all its residents.

It's expected to save families over $12,000 per child annually.

This is a huge step forward — and a reminder that we have the power to fix the system.

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations.

If you're 45, that number is 74.7%.

If you're under 28, the number is 100%.

Happy Labor Day.

Referring to yourself in the third person is weird.

Saying you are always right is dishonest.

Wearing a ball cap in the Oval Office is tacky.

Using your left hand to cover up medical issues on your right hand is concerning.

In addition to creating a joyous event, Zohran Mamdani just showed the stupidity of Fox News's "Crime is so bad in New York City, people are afraid to go out in the street or take the subway!!!"
