Speaker Johnson: Federal employees aren’t being paid. Nutrition cuts may cause children to go hungry. Millions are seeing their health premiums soar.

End the 6 week paid vacation you’ve taken. Join your Democratic colleagues and negotiate an end to this shutdown.

After a breast cancer scare last year, Charity Herndon decided to pursue her dream of opening a bookshop. The result is a Jane Austen-themed mobile bookstore called Austen’s Shelf.

If this country was truly β€œpro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.

The right-wing agenda isn’t about β€œlife.”

It’s about control.

The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. Except it doesn’t bend on its ownβ€”it bends because we pull it in the direction of justice. What keeps me hopeful during times like these is being surrounded by people who are doing just that.

Jimmy Kimmel was suspended by ABC after pressure from the United States government. This is a direct attack on the First Amendment.

Everyone who values freedom of speech should be outraged β€” and they should speak out.

The murders of Charlie Kirk and Minnesota state representative Melissa Hortman are part of a dangerous rise in political violence.

We cannot accept this as the norm.

We must do whatever we can to reduce the anger and hate that are consuming and destroying so much of the country.

Fabulous pic of Barack & Michelle Obama!

Fabulous pic of Barack & Michelle Obama!

We are reminded that, in the fleeting time we have on this Earth, what matters is not wealth, or status, or power, or fame, but rather how well we have loved and what small part we have played in making the lives of other people better.
