From @jamestalarico.bsky.social: "We are called to love all of our neighbors, including our Muslim, Jewish, Buddhist, Hindu, Sikh, agnostic, and atheist neighbors. And forcing our religion down their throats is not love. It's why I fought so hard for that sacred separation in our First Amendment."

Evidently anti-Semitism is not important when expressed by Federal officials, says DHS spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin. But of course they use a different standard for college campuses.

Bruce Springsteen - Streets Of Minneapolis (Official Audio)
Bruce Springsteen - Streets Of Minneapolis (Official Audio) YouTube video by Bruce Springsteen

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Stay free

If, in 10 years, we don't have a set of Minneapolis Trials to look back on the way we do the Nuremberg Trials, it will be a profound failure β€” of governance, of morality, and of society.

Stephen Miller is a blatant liar who engages in the worst kind of propaganda. He truly is the Goebbels of our era.

Folks, two things can true at the same time.

These 2 National Guard members should not have been shot, and it's a disgusting act of violence. And, Trump + Miller have deliberately deployed them to incite division { violence. That's part of Miller's plan. They have no reason to be in our cities.

Opinion | Trump Won’t Win a War Against the Courts The judiciary will never surrender to the president its constitutional role to interpret the Constitution.

The fundamental truth now before us: the Judiciary, not the President, determines what the law says, otherwise democracy fails.

Clearest proof yet that the Trump admin uses "DEI" to mean "nonwhite people doing something impressive and getting credit."

Navajo Code Talkers made a big difference in WWII. The Axis had more trouble translating their language than cracking codes. And it's not like the Navajo owed the US anything.

Opinion | Musk Said No One Has Died Since Aid Was Cut. That Isn’t True. A journey through the front lines of global poverty shows that when the world’s richest men slash aid for the world’s poorest children, the result is sickness, starvation and death.

1,650,000 people at risk of death due to loss of US aid. That’s just the first year. The proper term for this is Holocaust and it is happening now thanks to Musk and DT.

Report: Trump Had Over $280 Million In Debt Forgiven And Avoided Paying Taxes On Most Of It The debt largely came from his Chicago tower.

Nothing screams HYPOCRITE quite like Trump complaining about & gutting school loan forgiveness for grads dedicated to service & bettering our communities while he’s had HUNDREDS of MILLIONS in debt forgiven due bankruptcy 6 times.
