I am not saying everything is perfect in Iceland but this does seem better than our current policy of dynamiting sacred sites to build a border wall, or sometimes a second border wall.

11 May 1914 | Czech Jew, Valtr Dewidels, was born in Prague. He was deported to #Auschwitz from #Theresienstadt ghetto on 29 September 1944. He did not survive. --- The history of deportations of Jews from the Theresienstadt ghetto to Auschwitz: https://bit.ly/3MdIVUA

And.... Who is gonna pick the food in or fields? Who is gonna work at the meat processing plants? Who is gonna cook the food and wash the dishes at the nice restaurant you like? Who is changing the sheets at the fancy hotels? Can't wait for a major hotel strike during world cup. Anti ICE walk out.

“I struggle for adjectives to adequately describe the horror that this administration has visited on the world,” said a former State Department official. “It keeps me up at night.” Revisit this story from our series “The End of Aid,” a 2026 Pulitzer finalist.

Considering all the millions of lies Republicans have constantly told-using the repetition as propaganda to cynically convince people that the obvious prevarications are true The worst is that these callous murderers are somehow “pro-life”

I was a parent to my babies many years ago. I listened to pediatricians and Dr.s for their learned advice. What they said they needed, I gave them. My son and daughter are middle aged and healthy because they didn't have a stupid, maga mother.

They are pro-life but they are killing babies with misinformation about vaccines. They are pro-life but killing pregnant mothers by appropriate healthcare for difficult pregnancies. They are pro-life but refuse to provide low cost healthcare. They want to kill us all.

My representative, who is a pediatrician, knows what she is talking about. I am a retired pharmacist who practiced in a rural hospital. RFKjr should be ashamed of himself & removed from this post. He’s a clear & present danger. Unbelievable every damn day what he has eroded. It’s getting worse.

Your Mother’s Day weekend reminder that the so-called “party of family values” has historically blocked: -Paid family & medical leave -Universal childcare -Universal pre-K -Expanded Child Tax Credit -Programs to support reproductive health Doesn’t sound very pro-family to me.

It's a moral outrage that we're the only industrialized country without paid family and medical leave.

There are 86 pregnant mothers locked up in ICE concentration camps. Pregnant immigrants in detention for months despite rules against it - Los Angeles Times share.google/PQsxrLcoTOWM...

An 18 yr old high school senior with no criminal record, working 40 hrs weekly—including late shift at Popeye’s. This is the type of hard working neighbor we need. Yet instead of graduation, he’s in detention thanks to Abbott & Trump.

Trump lashes out at Fox News, accusing the network of undermining MAGA and the Republican Party — and claiming that MAGA Republicans “hate Fox.” He blames Fox for making it hard for Republicans to win elections.

The First Amendment is clear: The federal government can't punish media organizations just because it doesn't like what they have to say. By fighting back, ABC is sending an important message: Our rights are worth fighting for.

Deliberate destruction of American power and prosperity by the Trump regime

America’s credibility is in a free fall. Whether you agree with this administration or not, this is something that should concern every American.

Today, I was back in court, standing up against this Administration’s attempts to silence me, millions of other veterans, and all Americans. Our vets deserve leaders who stand up for their rights, not try to take them away. That’s why I’m not giving them an inch.

This is a good time to remind people that the US has some of the highest covid mortality rates in the world. The “best they can” got millions killed and many more disabled. They’ve gutted the CDC. Put an anti-vaxxer in charge of HHS. Stoked eugenicist rhetoric. Hope is not a strategy.

Per Barak Ravid of Axios, the U.S. military strikes on Iran tonight do not constitute a resumption of the war

US intelligence analysts say Iran could withstand a Strait of Hormuz blockade for 90–120 days and still retain significant missile and drone capabilities, WaPo reports.

WATCH: The racist Republican map stripping Memphis of representation passes the senate 25-5 — with @senatorcharlaneoliver standing on her desk in protest (From WSMV)

Donald Trump's administration has eroded the principles of our republic. They've dismantled the very institutions intended to check their corruption and overreach. Justice must be delivered to the Illinoisans who were subjected to a military-style assault by the President.

30 percent of Americans are against [squints at notes] the Pope urging peace

Soooo… Tennessee Republicans are trying to gerrymander the state. And they’re also trying to get rid of the requirement to tell people where their new polling locations are? Tell me again how the Republican Party isn’t trying to cheat. 🙄

Unearthed reports reveal that RFK Jr. fired every full-time CDC cruise ship sanitation inspector ahead of the Hantavirus cruise ship outbreak. www.cbsnews.com/news/cdc-cru...

Trump was so furious with the MAGA congresswoman over her vote to release the Epstein files that he vetoed a bill that would’ve brought water to her state.

This is a great example of what’s up with the word ‘affordable’ because most Americans live in homes that they own

⚡️ WATCH — JUST NOW — 99% white Tennessee House Republicans pass a racist 9-0 map stripping majority Black Memphis of congressional representation
