I was reading up on the history of diphtheria and ran across this interesting fact.

Please enjoy these shelter pups reacting to getting a kiss. Some are bashful, some have butterflies, and all deserve approximately 10 million more. 14/10 for all

Van Hollen speaks to press after being denied entry to El Salvador prison holding Abrego Garcia YouTube video by Senator Chris Van Hollen

Kilmar Abrego Garcia was illegally abducted and is being held in a notorious prison in El Salvador β€” barred from contacting his family or lawyers.

I’m speaking to the press now after we were denied access to the prison to check on his condition. Tune in:

Florida: Juan Carlos Lopez-Gomez (20) is being held in the Leon County Jail, charged with illegally entering Florida as an β€œunauthorized alien."

Lopez-Gomez is a U.S. Citizen, born in the USA. He showed his U.S. birth certificate in court. The judge held him in jail anyway.

This is Fascism.

Trump will reportedly end the IRS Direct File program that allowed taxpayers to file taxes for free.

This comes after Intuit, the maker of TurboTax, lobbied the government for years to block IRS free file.

Intuit donated $1 million to Trump’s inauguration.

See how this works?

This is where we are headed. If you don’t believe me, ask what basis the government had to send me and my family to a prison camp in Arkansas. We β€œlooked like the people who bombed Pearl Harbor.”

please join me in the fight to save our libraries.

EveryLibrary is working hard to save the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), which is the federal agency charged with distributing Congressionally approved funds to state libraries and grant recipients.

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

Fear has a way of being contagious.

But courage is also contagious.

Please share!!! This is getting ridiculousβ€”they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.

The founder of Signal releases a response to SignalGate:

β€œThere are so many great reasons to be on Signal.

Now including the opportunity for the vice president of the United States of America to randomly add you to a group chat for coordination of sensitive military operations.”

What is wrong with giving a new leader a chance? A new approach, a fresh approach. Someone who has integrity, leadership skills, represents a key state, has guts and the confidence of the base. Time to put ego aside and screw seniority. This is my nominee.

Imagine this: On the evening of March 8, you and your spouse unlock the door to your apartment building. As you step inside, two menβ€”not in uniformβ€”push their way in behind you. They tell you your visa has been revoked and that they are there to deport you.

Holy shit!! Trump just slipped on live TV that he lost the 2020 presidential election.

Trump would HATE it if this goes viral:

It’s been 30 years since I arrived in America. As a 12 year old refugee, I could have never imagined I would have the opportunity to represent the community that welcomed me with open arms πŸ₯°. I'll be forever grateful for the American people who gave me and my family a second chance at life.
