Sean Hannity called himself “uniquely qualified” to lecture Pope Leo XIV on the Bible Thursday night. Pope Leo XIV holds four degrees and a doctorate in canon law from the world’s most prestigious Catholic university. Hannity is a three-time college dropout who publicly quit the Catholic Church.

‘Bye, Felicia.

The FBI Director, the DC US Attorney, and the Secretary of Defense walk into a bar. Apparently like every day.

This is just an incredible shot.

I kind of needed to see this today. I used to love watching Obama interact with little kids. He was always genuine and kind and even got some to stop crying. Mamdani is very much the same with kids.

So the Strait of Iran (sic) is closed again and Lebanon is being bombed. A deal only works if both sides comply.

Our incredible volunteers made this possible. I feel like a million bu— 30,000 signatures!

This shot spells HOPE to me.

Proud of my #JerseyGirl roots.

UPDATE, Saturday: The Strait of Schrödinger remains open and closed, safe and dangerous, insurable and uninsurable, blockaded and free. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!

Probably just a coincidence that the law professors defending insurrectionist John Eastman are the same guys arguing against birthright citizenship, in no way reflective of a world view on who the law protects vs binds

I know I shouldn’t be surprised that this happened. I know that. But still…

If you read the original coverage on this case, please read this. Unfortunately that CHILD endured repeated assaults as a result but finally it appears she will be able to sue. No amount of money will make this right or just but it is something.

Timeline Cleanse.

"There are companies that think that exploitation is a viable business model. They are wrong." - @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social

Trump is not a child. He is not possessed. He’s not a victim of his advisors. He’s just a bad person and a bad president.

ICE terrorized children at the Whittier public library last year then peed all over the building when librarians wouldn’t let them in. Mayor Joe Viniateri loves ICE so now he’s out of a job. We love to see it!

NEW: On Wednesday shareholders in Thomson Reuters demanded the company’s board launch an investigation into whether its products have contributed to human rights violations, specifically with regards to Thomson Reuters’ ongoing sale of peoples’ personal data to ICE. www.404media.co/thomson-reut...

It will be extremely funny if Vance manages to get himself excommunicated before his book on becoming a Catholic releases.

It’s also @radiofreetom.bsky.social time because it’s peak death of expertise….

“Laysplained” is maybe my fave term EVER. The arrogance, the outright hubris of the Maybelline VEEP aka #shadyvance is simply mind-boggling.

Good.

NEWS: Huge first win for Mayor Mamdani’s tax-the-rich plans in NYC. Mamdani just secured a deal with Gov. Hochul to create the state’s first-ever tax on $5 million+ second homes owned by ultrawealthy out-of-state residents.

We are wishing our Bengali community in NY-14 and beyond a very Happy Bengali New Year! We hope you are all able to spend this vibrant, lively, and joyful holiday with your loved ones. Shubho Noboborsho!

Yet another pardoned Jan. 6 rioter to admit guilt in child sexual abuse case:

PabloReports: Any reaction to Trump’s attacks on the Pope? AOC: At the point that you’re attacking the Pope, who do you think has moral authority in this situation?

Glad to see the Target Boycott is trending. We’re urging our members, & our communities to shop local, not Target for Back to School. Target has not supported Minnesota,the place they got their start, so we are shopping elsewhere www.aft.org/resolution/a... @shanembailey.com @aaronblack.bsky.social

This is just awful.

This is Missy. She escaped from her backyard and ran straight to daycare, where she had a spa day and got to play with her boyfriend. Lessons were learned, but not the ones her parents probably hoped. 13/10 (TT: spotsplaceyqr)

We can't keep looking away from his emotional and cognitive issues. The attack on the Pope was the beginning of a full night of melting down. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

So many nights, as a young girl, were spent Just. Like. This.

When we say we're proud to be both a Social Purpose Corporation and a Certified B Corp, what we mean is that we're proud to put time and resources into supporting indie bookshops and getting more folks to read—because we actually care about the reading ecosystem, and we want it to thrive 💓

Me: "I never ever wanted to run for Congress or anything .... And I can't be a 30-year congressman. I'm not a career guy; it's not what I'm about. "I want to get in and get out after a couple terms: one to get rid of the moth— ... guy, and the next term to … help with the legal reconstruction"

When a Catholic says "Sometimes stuff my boss and I do directly draws the public criticism of the Pope, and that's just something I don't worry about, I don't consider morality to be part of my actions." you kinda have to wonder what he thinks Catholicism means.

The freedom to speak and to read is a fundamental principle of the United States of America. Use the action center to urge your representative to vote NO on HR 7661, or better, yet, to not take it up for a vote: tinyurl.com/hapf2m9r

We second this idea💡

If you’re in FL-24, TX-11, TX-20, or TX-25, we really want to talk to you — because these are the only congressional districts without an Indivisible group. We’re organizing in all 50 states (plus the future state of DC) and 431 congressional districts to defy Trump’s fascist agenda. Join us.

50 former staffers.

Orbán's electoral crushing is a far greater achievement than most people outside Hungary realise. He systemically consolidated power for 16 years, fixed the electoral map, abused govt power for political purposes & censored media. The hurdles that Hungarians overcame for this moment were immense.

Pointing out Congressional inaction on impeachment is not mean. It is not partisan. It's factual, because we observe their actions. We can either fix this by pressuring them to do their jobs or by voting them all out, but it must be fixed. Soon. Country over party, folks. Demand better.

Chuck Park is asking @meng.house.gov if she will stand up for Queens against the predatory casino project? He’s also showing Mets fans how Cohen (banned from trading for 2 years due to an insider trading scandal) has used the Mets team as a tool to buy power for himself. x.com/chuckforquee...

Not once in this story does @politico.com mention that US factories employ ~89,000 fewer employees than a year ago. @politico.com www.politico.com/news/2026/04...

Ffs… This wasn’t a “marathon,” CBS. It was one day of negotiations to resolve a conflict whose roots go back more than 70 years.

Very brave of Adam’s wife Ally to agree to be named in the article. I’m sure she knew it would lend credence yet would also make her a target. And…there will be more women. No way he only did this to 4.
