“We wanted to explore that tension,” historian and author Jemar Tisby told RNS. “How can people who claim to follow a migrant, Jesus, also celebrate when migrants are shut out from seeking safety?”

"There is no justification for a regressive system in which the super-rich contribute less than the rest of us," write @josephestiglitz.bsky.social, @gabrielzucman.bsky.social, and @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social.

Why do we have lawmakers in Congress who are willing to hold fellow members of Congress accountable for sexual assault but not a President?

I wholeheartedly endorse this message. May their view of themselves, and their place in a universe they have seen clearer than any of us, inspire the same wonder and curiosity within us all.

⚡️ European nations have announced a massive new surge in military support for Ukraine as the alliance pushes to hit a 60 billion dollar funding goal this year. “We have to ensure that we are capable of delivering uninterrupted support for Ukraine,” said NATO Chief Mark Rutte.

We must vote to extend Temporary Protected Status to Haitian families in danger. Trump’s decision to end their protections puts lives in harm’s way. I am grateful for @pressley.house.gov’s work to get this vote to the Floor. We will not stand by while families are being torn apart!

The Trump administration is facing serious pushback over its destruction of the U.S. Forest Service and the outdoor industry is answering the call.

‼️ TOMORROW is critical to protect TPS for Haitians. Please call Congress (Thu, April 16) and urge a YES vote ‼️ Thanks to Rep. Ayanna Pressley, the House advanced a discharge petition and H.R. 1689 vote on TPS for Haitians is happening TOMORROW. We got the vote—now we need to bring it home.

Are we serious right now? Why are we referring to 15-year-old girls as women?

This is one of the most self destructive policies in US history. www.wsj.com/world/europe...

The Unmanned Systems Forces have confirmed the strike on the petrochemical plant in Sterlitamak.

That the Trump administration would take pride in having betrayed and abandoned Ukraine -- the victim of the most blatant invasion of a sovereign European country since WWII -- is doubly disgraceful.

Virginia’s new law ends state tax breaks for several Confederate‐affiliated heritage groups, mainly because lawmakers say public money should not subsidize organizations that promote a legacy tied to slavery, white supremacy, and ongoing racial inequity. #pinks

“…to start a conflict without being clear what the objectives are and not being clear about how you are going to get out of it, I do think that is a folly and it is one that is affecting families here in the UK but also families in the US and around the world.” 2/2

#BLM OTD 1853 Harriet Tubman made her first of 19 courageous trips back to the South, leading enslaved people to freedom through the Underground Railroad. She personally guided 70 people (family & friends) out of Maryland & provided instructions to 50–60 more. #BlackAmericanHistoryIsAmericanHistory

You cannot make it make sense. Any of it. Trying will likely make you just as batty.

The politics in Hungary may have changed, but the politics in the US are the same. Todd Blanche is telling us we should be happy that Trump is directing DOJ to go after his political opponents. We cannot give up but we must fight for democracy every single day. And if we do we can win!

$200 billion materialized overnight for Trump’s war of choice in Iran. But for 25 million uninsured Americans, Congressional Republicans have nothing. No urgency. No bill. No vote. They fund what they value. #HealthcareNotTrumpsWar

Trillions for war. Zero debate. But healthcare? Childcare? Public services? Suddenly we’re broke. Trump and Republicans have made their choice — and it’s not you. 🔥 #HealthcareNotTrumpsWar

Don’t forget the Holy See…

Thank you for amplifying #ToonieTuesday 🚚💙💛

Talking about Donald Trump having dementia just gives a sympathetic excuse for inexcusable preexisting conditions. Donald has *always* been a mean, self-centered, incoherent fool who says stupid and ignorant things.

Yes.

The iconic rainbow Pride flag is set to return to the Stonewall National Monument in Manhattan, but it still took a lawsuit to get the Trump administration to reverse course. 🧵 nymag.com/intelligence...

Bean should be more concerned about a future without customers than about speaking into today's political climate. This is not a good look for them. They won't see me in their togs again unless they change their tune. Nothing is more important to our survival than our forest lands.

#ResistanceRoots Lucy Craft Laney was born on this day in 1854 in Macon, Ga. Known as the “Mother of the Children of the People,” she was an educator and social reformer who served as an influential mentor and created some of the first educational opportunities for African Americans in Georgia. /1

Incredible scenes at Péter Magyar's rally tonight in Miskolc, an industrial city in northeastern Hungary. May Hungary soon be a free, democratic, and prosperous nation, and firmly realign with Europe 🇪🇺. I am praying for a free and fair election on Sunday. 🙏🏼🇭🇺🕊️ #April12
