Warnock: If I'm honest, there are days when I have to ask people of my faith tradition as a Christian, are we reading the same book?  The book I know says I was hungry and you fed me. I was sick, I was in prison and you visited me, I was a stranger and you welcomed me….

Breakups are hard, especially when they play out in the public sphere. Here’s the tea on what’s happening between Trump and Elon in their messy spat.  But in all seriousness, we need to kill the bill. ⬇️

I wish journalists would stop framing political news as wins or losses for politicians or political parties. It’s an abrogation of our mission. Why do we keep doing this? Is the spending bill a win or loss for the American people? Who does it help? Who does it hurt? Is it sound policy? Fiscally?

The original House bill would have led to about 10 million more uninsured people, according to CBO. The amended version that passed would lead to more people losing health insurance. If this bill gets enacted, it would represent the biggest rollback in federal support for health care ever.

50% or more of nursing home residents are Medicaid. This includes long term, short term, and Assisted Living in some instances. They actually can’t work and need nursing care, activities of daily living and/or some type of daily supervision but do not have the resources for private pay.

Yes, Trump’s budget is a massive transfer of wealth from the poor and middle class to the rich — cutting programs for the former while cutting taxes for the latter. A budget is a moral document. The moral of his: Greed. open.substack.com/pub/donmoyni...

NBC has confirmed what we have been saying for weeks. Hegseth clearly copied classified strike schedules from a secure device to his personal phones. This alone would get a line service member thrown in prison. But when it’s SecDef we are supposed to ignore it.

Hegseth has denied the information he shared was classified, but it was given to him on a system for sensitive and classified information, sources told NBC News.

Her definition of an “unhinged man” in “daisy dukes” is a well-dressed man wearing normal above-the-knee shorts, and her definition of “getting in her face” is standing 10 feet away and calmly asking one question. Even after he’s leaving and she curses him out, he doesn’t get closer.

Pope Francis was a moral leader who challenged the powerful and lifted up the poor. When he spoke to Congress in 2015, I was struck by his call for compassion, justice, and stewardship. His legacy will live on in that message—it's needed now more than ever. May he rest in peace. Pax vobiscum.

I am doing some research this morning. Even though the US is not a member of the ICC, there are exceptions to the rule that non-member states’ citizens are not subject to ICC jurisdiction. Like this one:
This includes when a citizen of a non-member country commits war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide on the territory of an ICC member country.
That's why US citizens may be subject to the court's jurisdiction as it investigates alleged grave crimes that took place in Afghanistan, which is a state party, or in Poland, Lithuania, and Romania, which are also states parties.
