Kids are expensive! If we had universal healthcare/cheap child daycare then help wouldn't be as dire.

If you're doing parenting right, it's taking on a second job. A job that costs you a ton instead of bringing anything in.

Cutting down their taxes to give credit for that work is a good thing.

More pointedly, the pope said, "Someone who says, I'm against abortion, but is in favor of the death penalty is not really pro-life. Someone who says, I'm against abortion but I'm in agreement with the inhuman treatment of immigrants in the United States, I don't know if that's pro-life."

What a line from the Pope! I am so pleased he is carrying on Pope Francis’ advocacy for immigrants.

WATCH β€” @aoc.bsky.social : β€œAt some point we’ve gotta call these people’s B.S. for what it is. You can’t believe everything a con man is gonna tell you. We cannot live in perpetual fear of these clowns.” #TrumpShutdown

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

I know we are β€œused to it” but it is absolutely insane

If Congress shuts down and stops working, how will we be able to tell?

These people have found their health care at the center of a shutdown showdown Small business owners, self-employed people and early retirees are among the 24 million Americans who could lose the tax credit

Republicans would rather shut down the government than help millions of Americans afford health care. This article tells some of their stories, and is a good reminder of what’s at stake.

Oh they're absolutely overturning Obergefell if Thomas gets his way, aren't they, and he's probably trying to squeeze in an overturn of Lawrence v. Texas too, huh.

It just ain't right.

Not because these Koreans are guests, or visitors, or representatives of a staunch ally of the US in the East, or even because they're investors helping to boost the US economy and create jobs for Americans. It's because they are fellow human beings.

It just ain't right.

Congrats to team Europe for winning the Ryder Cup. Historic and well deserved.

Our fans were disgraceful. An embarrassment to the US team and the game of golf.

No class, dignity or grace…just like their cult leader in the White House.

ICE attempted
and failed to disappear a food delivery guy.
It needed to be scored.

I studied Nazi Germany & the Holocaust. During my studies, I absolutely thought about β€œwhat would I do?” And so I’m doing it. SPEAKING OUT. That’s what we learned, β€œnever again”. That’s the assignment.

Do we say a man is sane when he calls in the military to fight a war when there is no war? If such a man is not sane, do we have a solution to stop the madness if he’s in the White House?

One thing I've learned from the Internet is that a lie needs 0% proof to be believed, but the truth requires thousands of pages of proof and still won't be believed.

Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens.

Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

Remember, the same government deploying masked agents to kidnap people off the streets and disappear them to foreign countries without due process demands you not call them fascist…or else.

The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

People missing an important point about folks getting fired for whatever they said about Charlie Kirk: Americans are being conditioned to be snitches on their fellow citizens who don’t toe a party line on what is β€œallowed” to be expressed. And employers are going along. It’s the new secret police

One day after the Supreme Court lifted the ban on racial profiling, federal agents swarmed a car in Van Nuys.

Four masked agents with guns drawn yanked people out, slammed them to the ground, and pointed a weapon at a pregnant woman.

There is no justification for this. None.
