And Jesus will say, “When I was hungry, you did not feed me.”

I think my friends who are POC will understand this. Two things are true at the same time. Nothing is more American than protest. Nothing is more American than the white supremacy and misogyny people are gathering today to protest. Both are true.

literally a cartoon image of a “criminal”

Why on earth would anyone glorify a document which gave us minority rule and said people of African heritage are only 3/5 human?

Trump wants to get rid of mail-in voting. I think we would be better served to go to nationwide vote-by-mail ONLY.

this has almost certainly literally happened

There would be an immediate cease fire if Russia immediately ceases firing.

90 years ago, Social Security became a reality. With it, a promise. That every American could retire with dignity. That no senior should be forced to live in abject poverty. So when Republicans talk of privatizing it, or stripping it away, let me be clear: that’s a betrayal we won't allow.

90 years ago today, Social Security was signed into law, creating a safety net for elderly Americans - It promised economic security as they grow older. I’m determined to protect that promise against the threats from Donald Trump’s administration. We owe it to our country.

If something is important enough to be the law then two things should be done: 1. Don't put an expiration date on it. 2. Make the laws the same in all 50 states.

Micah Beckwith is evil and demonic.

Any Christian who supports the death penalty is saying to the accused: Jesus died for MY sins, but YOU have to die for your own.

I think we should want everyone to have what they need. And I think we should want government to play a big role in making that happen.

I wish to God the Roman Catholic Church would open its entire sacramental life, including the eucharist, marriage, and ordination, to everyone regardless of sexual orientation, sexual identity, or gender.

I remember when this happened.

Last year, the average S&P 500 CEO made $18.9 MILLION, while the average worker made $49,500. So much for “trickle down economics.” Tax the rich.

I believe followers of Jesus never, ever arm themselves. Tertullian was right: When Jesus disarmed Peter, he disarmed every Christian. Following Jesus means you would die before you would kill.

Vought is evil.

I think moral people are universally progressive.

It’s been 16 years since Congress raised the minimum wage. Meanwhile, folks are out here trying to survive on $7.25 an hour. In this economy?! I’m standing with my Labor Caucus colleagues to #RaiseTheWage, because $7.25 ain’t cutting it.

I am a Catholic theologian. And I think the seal of the confessional should not be used to cover up crimes. I have no problem with a priest giving absolution, but I think they should have to report this stuff.

Every time a Republican is accused of breaking the law, they appoint a Republican special counsel because of the fear a Democrat would have an axe to grind, but then if a Democrat is accused, they appoint a Republican to avoid the appearance of going to easy on the person being investigated.

I think we should ban voter ID. Take people's word for it that they are who they say they are. It worked for, like, 200 years!

I believe the key to Democratic wins in the future is going to be to go unapologetically to the left. Tepid, milquetoast centrism is one of the biggest enablers of the right.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

TRUTH BOMB: You can't demand that immigrants learn to speak English when you defund "English as a Second Language" classes.

Israel is a state sponsor of terror.

"Nearly 70 percent of Democrats now have an unfavorable view of Israel, according to Pew. Yet Democratic officials carry on as if full-throated support for Israel were party doctrine," writes @ryuspaeth.bsky.social. nymag.com/intelligence...

This was no mistake. These evil goons love this.

JV Dance is not ready for the Varsity.

I really do think that if any other president used the word “shylocks” it would be on the home page of NYT.

Trump spoke of “shylocks,” which is one of the most recognizable antisemitic terms in modern English. Watch who tries to explain this away.

I don’t know about you but when your President has a concentration camp grand opening and then utters “shylocks” as a slur, I would be worried.

1776: All men are created equal. 1789: Slaves are 3/5 human. The founders were not moral progressives. They were moral REGRESSIVES. They were going backwards. They were moral regressives. Why do we celebrate these guys?

Congrats to Lisa Murkowski on voting for a bill that she herself admitted was not ready in hopes that the House would change it. Now it’ll become law. She had the power to stop it, and instead chose to become complicit. That’s her legacy.

Republicans don't believe in the separation of Church and State. They do, however, believe in the separation of Jesus and Christianity.

I think they should be raising taxes on incomes over $500,000.

If Donald Trump gives Sean Combs a pardon for committing sexual offenses against women, that would be known as a professional courtesy.

America can and must be bigger than their punitive politics.

AOC: This bill is a deal with the devil. It explodes our national debt. It militarizes our entire economy. It strips away health care and basic dignity of the American people for what? To give Elon Musk a tax break.. We cannot stand for it. And we will not support it. You should be ashamed

The Hebrew prophets, particularly Micah and Amos, railed against those who denied justice to the poor. I believe if either of them were preaching in the United States right now, they would have condemned this budget bill and anyone who voted for it.

One Republican senator said they do not want to hurt people with this budget. Nope. I do not buy that. The GOP has been purposely hurting people for 60 years. Hurting the vulnerable is their actual goal.

This sentence, typed in her dissent, should scare the living fuck out of everyone in this country. "This Supreme Court is an existential threat to the rule of law." – Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson

I think ICE agents should not be able to hide behind masks. If you do not want to be doxxed, don't do what you are doing.

Oops. 🤷🏼‍♂️

If Jeff Bezos can afford to rent Venice for a $50 million wedding, he can afford to pay his fair share in taxes.

Justice Sotomayor’s dissent in today’s birthright citizenship case is a wake up call for all of us: “No right is safe in the new legal regime the Court creates”   SCOTUS is essentially deciding to look the other way as Trump infringes on our rights and breaks our laws.

This is despicable. No moral person would support this. It is time for Medicare for All!
