Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century.
He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

in response to last week’s killing by federal agents in Minneapolis. Incredibly, the senator himself has not yet said anything publicly or issued any statements.

Martin Luther King Jr. understood better than almost anyone that racial justice and economic justice are inextricably intertwined. Watch his powerful call to end poverty from his final Sunday Sermon.

Pew Research Institute (2023):
• Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants
• Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants
• Blue State Minnesota has 130,000.
And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration."
It's *not* about immigration.

This one is painful poetry about the wonders of the world and life and death. The personal & universal.
I never thought anyone could articulate the magic of the natural world the way I experience it, but this is it.

The Nazi regime in DC has now decided that American families who rely on SNAP benefits will not be eating in November.
Yes, you read that right.
No food for Thanksgiving.
Because Nazi republicans in power don't want anyone to see the Epstein files.

On the first day in office, this President pardoned actual violent insurrectionists who stormed our Capitol.
Now he’s making up shit in Portland to justify using the military AGAINST the American people.
Real POS behavior from this TEMU dictator.

Justice Sotomayor called the order a "gross ... abuse" of the court's authority. Also: Law Dork in the media.
