Talarico: if you read the new testament, Jesus doesn't spend most of his time preaching or teaching or even praying. He spends most of his time healing the sick.

Right now, we have politicians in congress with Christ follower in their Twitter bio, but they are kicking the sick off their health care

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee:

“Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

Two weeks ago
🇺🇸 “I’ll let you know in 2 weeks whether Putin is playing us. If so, we’ll respond differently.”

Trump says his envoy is doing “phenomenal work” with Russia, but no deal is signed yet. He’s also “very disappointed” by mass strikes on Ukraine.

And after that, another two weeks, and after that...

Lutnick's net worth is 1.5 BILLION.

In the name of fighting "DEI," Trump's spending freeze brought us to the brink of disaster yesterday.

He's tapping into culture wars while his billionaire buddies loot the government and gut programs that help millions.

His "war on woke" is a war on the American people.
Clearly illegal
This isn’t about cutting the size of government. It’s about further concentrating power in Trump’s hands.

The chairman in the Kennedy hearing keeps saying how far overtime they are and refuses to schedule a second round of questions. THIS is how we get idiots in an administration. Time is not an element when determining the ability of someone to handle America's health care!

A reminder that the Republican Party gained total control of the Florida Legislature, Governorship, and the Cabinet just over 20 years ago. They began dismantling public education right away. That is why we are here.

I saw a post saying that ICE is pausing its tip line, so I decided to call myself to verify.

The recorded voicemail said they are not currently accepting immigration status tips.

Good job, friends.
