It’s not unthinkable. It keeps happening again & again. At schools. Shopping centers. Etc etc etc

It will keep happening until we as a country stand up together to say enough.

Until we do, it will continue to happen & traumatize our children. How dare we not protect them?

It is despicable and unacceptable for a member of Congress to call people in prayer “barbarians.”

The threat here isn’t Brooklynites praying.

The threat is Rep. Fine spewing disgusting slurs about another religious faith.

Rep. Fine must apologize and retract this tweet immediately.

David Ellison reportedly told Trump he’d make “sweeping changes” to CNN if Paramount’s takeover of Warner Bros. gets approved.

Meanwhile, Jared Kushner and three Middle East countries are backing the bid — while Kushner advises Trump on foreign policy.

Corruption on display.

AI holds immense promise, but it also enables scams and deepfakes that harm Americans. States are leading with responsible safeguards. President Trump’s executive order threatens to override them.

We should not undo the few protections Americans have.

Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino recently admitted to lying as a political pundit. @dgraham.bsky.social on media personalities turned administrators and their complex relationship with the truth, in The Atlantic Daily:
Dan Bongino Admits to Lying During His Pundit Days
Before he joined the FBI, Bongino spread bogus claims about the January 6 pipe bomber—and now says he did it because he was getting paid.

Immigrants who have an opportunity to gain U.S. citizenship or residency are some of the most patriotic people in this country. They come here to work and give back.

They deserve a SAFE pathway to citizenship.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.

No more pretense or excuses. Trump and his team have made the white supremacist foundations of this project explicit and clear.

If you enable this you need to face who and what you are. But you can always choose another way.

Choose humanity. Decency. Equality. Democracy.
To make common cause with this Administration is to support an affirmatively white supremacist vision of this country. Period.

Every corporation.
Every Republican.
Every influencer.
Every Governor.
Every evangelical leader.
Every voter. Yes. Every voter.

There is no constitutionally legitimate scenario in which we are being de facto governed by the White House Deputy Chief of Staff using a half-dead president as his sock puppet. We went out of our way to amend the Constitution on precisely this point.

Killing is bad, and to that end I'd like to call attention to the dozens killed in small boats in the southern Caribbean by the Trump Administration and the estimated 600,000 who've died of preventable disease and starvation thanks to the administration's destruction of USAID.

About 40% of SNAP recipients are children. Around half of ALL children in the country are covered by Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program.

And the so-called “party of family values” gutted both programs by billions of dollars.

Doesn’t sound very pro-family to me.
