CBS reporter Edward R. Murrow embodied what a journalist should be: someone who holds power to account instead of capitulating to it.

Over 70 years later, his segment denouncing Joe McCarthy’s congressional witch hunts rings truer than ever.

They thought it would happen to others, not them.

4 Dead, 20 Injured in a South Carolina Bar.
3 shootings in Mississippi leave 6 dead and 10 injured.

And Taco Tits is sending ICE and the Military to Portland and Chicago. Pay attention, people, this isn't about stopping crime, it's about setting up for Martial law and stopping elections.

Many of us grew up in the church being taught to root for Moses, Daniel, and John the Baptist in the Bible, only to grow up and have our churches question our faith for not cheering on the Pharaohs, Nebuchadnezzars, and Herods in our world today.

Let’s be clear:

Republicans are 💯 responsible for the government shutdown. They don’t need a single vote from Democrats to reopen.

Republicans are 💯 responsible for firing thousands of federal workers. They don’t need a single layoff to offset the shutdown. It’s their Project 2025 playbook.

He got the COVID and flu Vaccines like every 79 year old should this is a good thing.
"Cardiovascular age validated by by ECG and found to be 14 years younger than chronological age" is a nonsensical phrase.
I am an internist this is not something we do or write in medical reports.

Simple messaging I recommend you share and text friends, family, and neighbors.

These are the lines Democrats need to be using.

A First Lady who lied about having a college degree on her immigration application, who is married to someone who rapes children and arrests his political opponents, and has a "back door channel" to an evil despot who kidnaps children and assassinates his political opponents.

Incredible.
