At this point, it would’ve been cheaper to extend the ACA subsidies than to engage in this illegal and immoral war in Iran. Goes to show you whoβ€”and whatβ€”the Republican Party is willing to spend money on.

When Trump says the economy is booming tonight, check your grocery bill. When he says healthcare is improving, check your premiums. The gap between his words and your life is where the truth lives. #TrumpsStateOfDelusion

U.S. Catholic Bishops Continue Rebuking the Trump Administration On Immigration From defending birthright citizenship in the courts to condemning ICE’s warehouse scheme, U.S. Catholic bishops have made clear they’re siding with immigrant communities.

US Catholic bishops continue rebuking the Trump admin on its anti-immigrant policy.

β€œChildren do nothing wrong by being born in the United States,” they said in a legal brief ahead of next month’s Supreme Court hearing on birthright citizenship. β€œYet, this executive order renders them stateless.”

Don’t let Fox get away with it this time. Spread the word.

Fox & Friends Weekend replaced footage of Trump attending yesterday’s dignified transfer with a clip from 2025.

They clearly didn’t want their audience to see him disrespecting fallen soldiers wearing a baseball cap.

Mayor Mamdani posts about a Trump-pardoned 1/6 β€œwhite supremacist” insurrectionist leading a racist protest at his house where they attempted to use an explosive device.
