I know that the 47th administration has cracked down on Disney/ABC's freedom of speech and commerce. And I also know that if ANYONE has the money and legal experience to fight censorship, it's #Disney. I hope they do it.

Ok. Just a teeny tiny short story time you can enjoy while you eat lunch, since this is still bouncing around the internet. A lot of folks are harping on about wanting our politicians to support the rights of trans folks being a "single issue voter" situation, and we're just naive.

Did you #MAGA voters plan on rising prices for shipping food & necessities? 🍑 warned it was gonna hurt a little. BUT YOU DIDN'T THINK IT WOULD HURT YOU. Will you even be able to gas up your truck enough to reach the nearest Walmart? #Conservative: selfish fool who conserves NOTHING.

Dolly Parton was they type of Christian that Christian Nationalists only *pretend* to be. Unlike Christian Nationalists, she didn't browbeat us with how CHRISTIAN she was. She just lived her life doing things that Jesus asked her to do, like heal the sick, help the children, and care for the poor.

At the 100 lowest-paying major corporations — including Walmart, DoorDash, and Amazon — CEO pay averaged $17.5M in 2025. Median worker pay was just $36,571, a ratio of 614 to 1. Those same 100 companies spent $108.6B on stock buybacks last year. How can anyone defend this?

So what are the three things. Candidates need to answer 3 questions: 1. Will you push for healthcare for all with all you’ve got, if elected? 2. Do you support Israel’s military aggression in other nations? (Add in do you take AIPAC $) 3. Will you tax the rich? Simple and easy to understand. /3

I’ve given this a great deal of thought, trying to come up with the perfect joke for this moment, and this is what I have so far - POPE LEO: our religion teaches that this war is bad VANCE: wow, who died and made YOU head of the Catholic Church?? POPE LEO: well, you should know, you were there
screencap of a tweet with a photo at the bottom of JD Vance giving a talk, gesturing smugly with his hands

Eric Daugherty • @EricLDaugh • 1h
• JD VANCE RESPONDS TO POPE LEO:
"When the Pope says that God is never on the side of those who wield the sword - there is more than a THOUSAND year tradition of Just war Theory."

"In the same way that it's important for the vice president of the United States to be careful when I talk about matters of public policy, I think it's very, very important for the pope to be careful when he talks about matters of theology."

"And I think that one of these issues here is that there has been - if you're going to opine on matters of theology, you've got to be careful, you've got to make sure it's anchored in the truth, and that's one of the things that I try to do, and it's certainly something I would expect from the clergy, whether they're Catholic or Protestant."

Bees are small, fragile, and easily overlooked. And yet, in their heavy pollen-laden wings, they hold something of the planet's balance. With every flight, with every touch of the petals, the bee gathers not only nectar—it gathers life, color, hope.

When I got the contract to write a history of concentration camps in 2014, I hoped to keep the US from ending up here. That didn't work out! But now it's critical to understand how much is already in process and the enormity of what's coming. The sooner we act to stop it, the more people we'll save.
