Jeffries: "You got some people in the town who go to church and pray on Sunday, and then they come to Congress and prey on the American people. I'm not down with that kind of faith. That's not the faith that comes out of the Gospel."

It’s the Canadian elections tomorrow!
And no election night is wasted with me, so I’m looking forward to following. (And hope you’ll follow along.) Some polls out east will close starting at 6:30pm ET (8:30 local time), but bulk of poll closures will be much later, after 930pm ET.

Most Americans seem to understand that “Liberation Day” is about liberating them from cash in their wallets.
New polls are awful for Trump:
AP: Only 38% approve of his handling of trade
Fox: 56% disapprove of his handling of economy. 69% say tariffs will make goods pricier
Details on the pod:

JFC, Fulbright scholar not accused of any crime, no immigration violation, no reason to expect any violence -- just Marco Rubio's whim -- and instead of summoning her first step is no-uniform / no-ID guys in masks and hoodies grabbing her off a public street.
Not sure if this has been shared here yet, but this is video of Rumeysa Ozturk's arrest posted by WCVB. It's terrifying.

Reminder: some CAN’T get vaxxed because of health conditions, or they are extra vulnerable, like children and elders.
Herd immunity is how grownups protect them.
But if your kids are unvaxxed, you’re using other people’s kids as human shields and YOUR CHILD could hurt or kill the vulnerable.
