Virginians have the chance to redistrict their state in favor of Democrats. A ballot measure vote is happening now. Vote YES to allow the redistricting!

I've heard that, if this measure succeeds, Virginia Dems are predicted to gain 4 U.S. House seats in the midterms.

And just read that Christians are being killed in the West Bank alongside Muslims. The settlers are taking advantage of the Iran War to do this while no one is watching.

How's that for protecting Christians everywhere?

That's the best case scenario for the next 3 years- no more damaging bills signed.

Would destroy Twitter.

I try to avoid cursing, and I never condone violence for any reason.

I'm OK with my name out here.

Portugal had a great empire once.

While the people starved, the oligarch class and Catholic Church officials lived large.

Plug-in white evangelical preachers, and it looks the same.

For the record, Portuguese middle class never recovered.

I have clients who purchase off-cuts (liver, heart, kidneys, etc) to make food for their pets.

It is not cheap.

Idiocracy.

I was asked by Jake Tapper if my push to deny Trump funding for his illegal war with Iran was a failure to "support our troops".

My answer: refusing to repeat the mistakes of the past - sending soldiers to die in pointless Middle East wars - is how we support our troops

The Democrats "didn't do a damn thing" other than have a nuclear deal in place that Trump 1.0 ripped up and now supposedly wants those terms again.

Sure, Lindsey

Donald just sees $$$ for him and his buddies from all the rebuilding.

It's gross, and a completely unnecessary use of resources.

This war of choice is evil on so many levels.

I should have said "complain to someone who cares."

Not only is this the moral thing to do, it's an amazing opportunity for Canada to welcome some of the bravest, brightest, and most creative people. America's loss is our gain.

This pic obscures Susie Wiles and her white poncho coat.

These are the same people who berated Zelensky for not wearing a suit.

Were there someone to complain to anymore, we could register a complaint.

🧡 2/2 TX Rep Monica De La Cruz (R) isn’t stepping up to help a family that’s here documented & following the rules

Antonio, a HS SR, the state’s 1st chair trumpet player, is sitting in the Raymondville detention center & his parents & brothers are in the Dilley Center

They’re kids, not criminals

Wow -- as first spotted by @BadFoxGraphics on X, Fox & Friends this morning used *old footage of a previous dignified transfer* to mislead their audience about the fact that Trump wore a baseball cap during the one yesterday

And Ms. Susie behind him in her white cape.

At least Melania wore black.
