Notice how a book can make you gay, a vaccine can make you autistic, a mask can make you sicker, and a poster of the Ten Commandments can make you moral, but guns don’t kill people.

“It doesn’t bother me when he speaks on issues of the day — frankly, even when I disagree with how he’s applying a particular principle.” That Vance, a Catholic convert, would be so arrogant as to think his own interpretation of theology is superior to the Pope’s… www.nytimes.com/2026/04/14/u....

he's counting on people not knowing what a doctor looks like because they don't have healthcare

Just because a President announces he’s agreed to a two week ceasefire moments before he threatened to commit war crimes, does not mean he is suddenly fit to serve. #25thAmendment

“America is not a Christian nation, but a nation where you are free to be a Christian - or any of those other faiths, or no faith at all.”

Raskin: "I want the whole country to look at this. This is the attorney general of the US whose job is law enforcement. We've never had a witness who has misunderstood our rules and been unable to conform his or her conduct to our rules before. Excuse me."

The cowardice of the GOP never fails to be overwhelmingly disheartening. There is no limit to the depravity it will not embrace; not a modicum of decency remains.

Trump: "I don't want to drive housing prices down. I want to drive housing prices up for people who own homes."

Pope Leo’s top U.S. ally — Cardinal Joseph Tobin — calls on Congress to defund ICE.

The party that has spent unlimited resources and energy getting states to pass laws to allow citizens to openly carry loaded weapons anywhere - now believes that exercising this right is permission for law enforcement to murder you. Honestly, how dumb do they think we are?

I’m tired of the indefensible being defended by cowards in the GOP.

I feel confident Fox won’t be inviting him to return.

I can't believe I'm posting this video - but we actually have to have a conversation about the real world implications of America going to war over Greenland. Let me walk you through it. It doesn't turn out well for us.

Looks like ICE is now cracking down on … Native Americans. This letter was just posted by the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in North/South Dakota: “Our Nation is a sovereign government and our members are not immigrants. We are not subject to immigration enforcement on our own lands.”

The Norwegian Nobel Prize committee has been forced to make a statement, declaring that the prize cannot be transferred. It's hard even to comprehend how stupid this has become

NPR’s Jan. 6 archive brings together reporting, video, documents and testimony to show what really happened during the Capitol riot. Explore the timeline, cases and evidence behind the attack.

Imagine how awful this would be if it weren’t satire. Oh, wait…

Old enough to remember when there were three separate but equal branches of government. Really feeling nostalgic for those days.

Timezones are so weird. Australia is in 2026, Canada is in 2025, and the United States is in 1939.

So much for being concerned about men entering women’s restrooms.

Warnock: "Any nation that tolerates this kind of violence year after year, decade after decade in random places, on our college and school campuses, without doing all that we can to stop it is broken and in need of moral repair."

Americans are a decent people, by and large. The president is not.

"They were intimate enough for her to see him flossing his teeth, his dopp kit overflowing with prescriptions. She writes that despite being 'sober' for decades, Kennedy [RFK Jr.] told her he still uses psychedelics, and smoked dimethyltryptamine, or DMT..." www.nytimes.com/2025/11/14/s...

“Bible teaching, he noted, is to have ‘special care for strangers, aliens and sojourners.’ ‘It is not rocket science, but the Word of God’…” www.nytimes.com/2025/11/11/u...

"Pope Leo said Scripture emphasizes the question that will be posed at the end of the world: 'How did you receive the foreigner, did you receive him and welcome him, or not? I think there is a deep reflection that needs to be made about what is happening'..." chicago.suntimes.com/pope-leo-xiv...

#Thugs "Leaving his home in Ontario to work at a food bank Thursday morning, Carlos Jimenez pulled over to warn a group of federal agents that they should wrap up their stop of a car quickly because school-age children would soon gather there to take the bus, his lawyers said Sunday."

Anyone can become disabled. Anyone can lose their job. Anyone can become homeless. Anyone can go hungry. These are not moral failings. They can happen in an instant. Most people are far closer to living in poverty than they realize. We must fight for one another & for the most vulnerable.

Oh it’s not appropriate for your program to air the president wearing a crown and shitting on American citizens? You’ll talk about it in euphemisms? Maybe call it the “crown video” and ignore the shitting part? Because that’s appropriate? Tell me, was it appropriate for the president to do it?

“We found over 35 cases in which the judges have specifically said what the government is providing…false information. It might be intentionally false information, including false sworn declarations time and again," says Ryan Goodman, law professor at New York University.

“With your patient and rigorous work, you can act as a barrier against those who, through the ancient art of lying, seek to create divisions in order to rule by dividing,” he said. “You can be a bulwark of civility against the quicksand of approximation and post-truth...” apnews.com/article/pope...

www.theguardian.com/world/live/2... I’m just glad it went to someone standing up for democracy instead of tearing it apart!

The America we have become under the GOP.

As a non-doctor, I have cut back on the surgeries I perform. Mostly.

“They asked for a sword, and we said, ‘Well, we do have swords, but we can’t give them away because they’re museum artifacts,’” said Todd Arrington, forced to resign as head of Dwight D. Eisenhower Presidential Library.”

I don’t care what your status is. This is inhumane and unnecessary.

This is who we have become under GOP leadership.

Our president is a troll. America, how have we sunk to this as acceptable?

“They want a president to be like a king.” Reminiscent of when Israel insisted on having their own King, despite that being the opposite of what God was calling them. True Christians don’t need another king. Nor do they subscribe to the heresy of nationalism. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

"'Someone who says I’m against abortion but is in favor of the death penalty is not really pro-life ... Someone who says I’m against abortion but I’m in agreement with the inhuman treatment of immigrants in the United States, I don’t know if that’s pro-life.'" www.ncregister.com/cna/pope-leo...

More than anything else, I object to this president stealing our time and attention. We can’t even have a Sunday morning without hearing about some insane thing he said and wondering if that insane thing will become real because he’s insane.

“Surprisingly, the benefits were seen even for people who didn’t read. While the connection was stronger among regular readers, even nonreaders were healthier in cities with more library books.”

“I am your appointed servant in this land and am available for you but I do not try to get in your presence often because I trust your instincts…” This is a sick and demented cult.
