Alex Pretti was an American hero. He saved lives. He protected people. He cared deeply about his community, unlike the murderous thugs who killed him. The very last thing he did was try to help a woman who had been pepper-sprayed and violently shoved to the ground by ICE. 1/

There are a lot of people who are worried and feel like the country is falling into complete darkness. Trump makes threats because he thinks the resistance is scared of him, but we aren’t. This administration sent ICE into Minneapolis to terrorize the community.

Just when you think Trump can’t sink any lower… Rob Reiner and his talented wife Michele were friends of ours. We collaborated on projects. Brad and I are devastated. We are in shock and grief. Sure, Rob opposed Trump, but this is so beyond the pale.
Screenshot of a long post attributed to Donald J. Trump on X claiming that filmmaker Rob Reiner and his wife have died, using mocking and inflammatory language and referencing “Trump Derangement Syndrome.” The post appears satirical or false and is presented as a block of text on a white background with Trump’s profile name and handle at the top.

The outside of the White House has "The Presidential Walk of Fame" in gold script letters. There are gold framed portraits under the letters. An unframed painting of Trump's face with the USA flag hangs between two painted portraits of former First Ladies. A stream of people walk through a door. Some gold detail is above the door. There's gold detailing on the walls inside the Oval Office.

heartbroken to learn the pope sympathizes with the poor. how can i continue to believe in god
The Pope tweets: "The poor are not there by chance or by blind and cruel fate. Nor, for most of them, is poverty a choice. Yet, there are those who still presume to make this claim, thus revealing their own blindness and cruelty. #DilexiTe"

Someone replies: "I was so hopeful I could be a Catholic again after the disaster that Francis was, guess we just get Francis 2.0 now and I am heartbroken.  How do I stay a Catholic now...I don't want to lose faith but I am. You belong to someone else, not God."
