On this day in 1881, a Czech Jewish woman was born. On the 30 Jan 1942, she was deported to Theresienstadt Ghetto and on the 28 Apr 1942 to Zamošč Ghetto which was liquidated in Nov 1942. She perished in the Shoah. Her name was Gizela Schmolkaová

OMG. I listened so you don't have to.

The New York Times, once again, not being forthright about Trump.

Donald Trump is obsessed with the fact that I beat him 60x in court in 2020. That same year I started Democracy Docket to give you the information and analysis you need to stay informed and fight back against his lies. Support its work by subscribing now. bit.ly/4a7l1TR

Our senior dogs had a big beach day out. I promise this will make you smile from ear to ear ❤️

————— Will Bunch Trump the Tout ”’Palantir…(PLTR) has proven to have great war fighting capabilities and equipment,’ Donald Trump posted on April 10.…it was stunning to see the American president using Palantir’s Nasdaq ticker symbol..in a post that read like a tout for a dubious penny stock.“GIFT

🇺🇦President Zelenskyy: This week, the Russians launched more than 3,170 attack drones, over 1,300 guided aerial bombs, and 74 missiles of various types, most of them ballistic, against Ukraine.

It hurts to watch. Four years of russian captivity mean decades of aging: Ukrainian marine and Mariupol defender Mykhailo Katsaval is finally home. russian prisons are hell. russian occupation is not peace. russia's impunity only leads to more wars — and bigger ones.

Always make friends with dogs.

A great day in Montgomery, AL as thousands gathered under the theme “All Roads Lead to the South” - a rally to mobilize awareness & action in opposition to southern states racial gerrymandering to dismantle majority Black congressional districts after the SCOTUS decision in Louisiana v Calláis.

REPORTERS, WE NEED TO TALK. SIGNED, THE AMERICAN PEOPLE This video delivers an open letter directly to every reporter in the briefing room, on Air Force One, and the reporters who have forgotten who works for who. youtube.com/shorts/NpGkM...

Trump is busy posting AI generated split screen videos with a big screen of a navy ship w/ a fighter plane overhead, and a smaller screen of Trump happily dancing with his fingers, as if typing or playing a keyboard. Then Trump hits a button and the ship blows up the plane. He's posted at least two.

Today, Trump is hosting a prayer event that will “give thanks for God's providence…and rededicate America as One Nation under God.” All but one of the speakers are conservative Christians. It’s Trump’s latest move towards remaking our secular democracy into a MAGA theocracy. Watch.

I agree with this guy

Speaking TRUTH!!!!

Harrison Ford’s commencement address.

Natalie Anne Kyriacou OAM - an Australian environmentalist, social justice advocate & author, delivers a powerful and deeply provocative address. Opening with the question, “How do you think we will be written about in history books?”

Today’s estimated Ruzzian losses

The Senate Parliamentarian has advised that the orange felon’s $1B trashy dictator worship ballroom will be subject to a 60-vote threshold. His demolishing of the White House for his own ego/vanity should be considered destruction of government property. I hate him.

Animals can’t grasp the concept of service duty and don't understand why their humans have to leave for a long time. This makes them miss their friends even more. Just look at how eagerly this good boy reaches to greet his owner, who came back from the front to visit❤️

The idea is tell right wing Trumpers that it’s okay to seize the Capitol. You will be pardoned and hugely compensated. He’s creating an army of violent insurrectionists.

"As they rushed into his apartment...he felt the jaws of a large dog biting into his ankle, knocking him to the floor. He screamed as the dog tore the flesh from his thighs, hip and wrist. Down the hall, agents took a mother and her 16-yr-old son at gunpoint..." www.propublica.org/article/chic...

My governor has gone full Fetterman, and we have no idea why. We sane people in Colorado would like to apologize for believing this asshole would stick to his beliefs after elected. But now he's leaving so his true colors are showing.🤷‍♂️ Never go full Fetterman...

Is it just me, or is it time for the entire Epstein regime to be held accountable for their crimes?

“Short-term pain.” Tell that to the Uber driver who can't afford to show up to work with gas prices so high. Tell that to the retired couple who just skipped their dinner. And tell that to those who are being forced out of retirement to cover their electric bill.

I love and respect this scientist. Carl Sagan answers a question about creation vs evolution.

Lots of Things they should be in Prison for…. Just throwing this out there, but if you or I sold S59M in non-existant phones and just shrugged, we'd be in prison.
