The Portland Frog army has now infiltrated Tulsa, OK and they’ve made an unlikely alliance with the T-Rex infantry and Sharks on Hoverboards mercenary forces.

This is truly terrifying.

Pope Leo quotes Hannah Arendt:

“The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the convinced Communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction and the distinction between true and false no longer exist."

A priest led 1000 Catholics in a Eucharistic Procession from St. Eulalia Church to Broadview - monstrance in hand - to give Holy Communion to detainees.

DHS denied them even though prisoners, by law, can't be denied religious rights.

Christian Nationalism is phony baloney straight-up evil!

Donald Trump is not a king — and his administration is not above the law.

Today, the court confirmed what we all know: there is no credible evidence of a rebellion in the state of Illinois.

And no place for the National Guard in the streets of American cities like Chicago.

Right before this photo was taken I told Tish James that she was a fucking badass.
Because it’s true.
And it’s also true that Donald Trump is a fucking pussy.

The lies are becoming pure fantasy lately. Time for the 25th amendment.

Screenshot of a tweet from Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) on X featuring a clip of Donald Trump speaking. The tweet quotes Trump saying: ‘I don’t know what could be worse than Portland. You don’t even have stores anymore. They don’t even put glass up. They put plywood on their windows.’ The image below shows Trump seated at a table with a microphone and water cup, speaking during a meeting.

Adelita Grijalva won her election fair and square.

Now House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in because she would be the final signature to release the Epstein files.

Mr. Speaker, respect democracy. Obey the law. Swear Representative Grijalva in immediately.

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."
