Great article from @theintercept.com theintercept.com/2026/05/18/s...

As a secular person, I really appreciate this conversation #popeleo #loveoverhate youtu.be/U70f_Ww8-sU

This is the most horrifying, psychotic, grotesque message Trump has ever posted—openly threatening to commit genocide. This is beyond reckless. It’s dangerous, dehumanizing, and utterly unfit for any leader.

Hmmm

THAT Georgia election is tomorrow 🗳️ Good luck Shawn Harris! www.shawnforgeorgia.com

Here is something that needs to happen: If the White House insists on giving illegal orders, then Democrats need to publicly tell senior leaders and service members, once again, that they'll have their backs should they refuse to carry them out. Otherwise, they're just going to carry them out.

Wisconsin, Alaska, Arizona, Georgia, Missouri, and Oklahoma elections are tomorrow 🗳️ plz share 💙 boltsmag.org/whats-on-the...

That’s not good

This was a good discussion on CNBC Friday about fertilizer supply. The issue for farmers isn’t about high prices for this year’s planting season — they’ve already ordered. The issue is whether they’ll get delivery on their order at all. @cnbc.com www.cnbc.com/video/2026/0...
