There is no single religious answer to the question of when life or personhood begins. So what happens when government adopts one religious answer and turns it into law? Watch the full conversation with @greerdonley.bsky.social and Susan J. Frietsche: www.youtube.com/watch?v=IrZX...

There's no sugar-coating Slaughter. It's an enormously important ruling (far more important than the other three decisions #SCOTUS handed down today). It's a huge win for Trump/the executive. And it's going to have massive ramifications for the functioning of the government long after Trump is gone.

If Congress doesn't act now, Social Security benefits could be cut by more than 20 percent after 2032. Senator Bernie Moreno and I have a bipartisan solution: lift the Social Security payroll tax cap. We need to save Social Security for the next generation. Let's get this done.

Don't be fooled by the fact that none of today's 5 #SCOTUS rulings were "big" ones. Four of them split the Court along its usual 6-3 ideological lines—one of which guts accountability for human rights abuses; one that makes it harder to enforce Spending Clause statutes; and one that's bad for LPRs.

Anytime any respectable journalist mentions our two chief negotiators with Iran, Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff, they should note both receive sizeable paychecks from Middle Eastern nations with deep equities in these talks. It is a fundamental corruption.

The reason Obama used water from the river for the reflecting pool and not city water is because city water is treated with orthophosphates, which is food for algae, causing massive blooms that produce cyanotoxins that kill wildlife.

If true, I have serious concerns about this being a war crime. Under the laws of armed conflict: Proportionality: the military advantage has to outweigh the anticipated civilian harm. Hard to see what military advantage would outweigh robbing 20k people of drinking water.

Day 2 of #Pride Month reminder: Pride and secular democracy go hand in hand! Religious freedom should never mean using government power to discriminate. Maintaining church-state separation is essential to protecting LGBTQ+ rights, pluralism and civil equality.

Graphic with a dark blue background reading “PRIDE & SECULAR DEMOCRACY go hand in hand.” It shows a church on the left and the U.S. Capitol on the right, separated by a brick wall with a crack down the center. A rainbow Pride flag appears across the bottom. Text at the bottom reads “Maintain Church-State Separation! JFASD.ORG.”

The president demands election results be thrown out so Republicans win more seats

We cannot allow there to be an Election that is conducted unconstitutionally simply for the “convenience” of State Legislatures. If they have to vote twice, so be it. We should demand that State Legislatures do what the Supreme Court says must be done. That is more important than administrative convenience. The byproduct is that the Republicans will receive more than 20 House Seats in the upcoming Midterms! President DONALD J. TRUMP
