Thank you @jimmykimmel.com for making it plain: the media is helping to push lies about what's happening in Los Angeles when literally ... almost NOTHING is happening in Los Angeles, EXCEPT for where ICE shows up and kidnaps people. The city is perfectly normal otherwise. Media: stop playing along!

And just like that, TikTok is no longer a national security threat... 🤷 A tiny Chinese company owned by same people that own TikTok just bought $300,000,000 of $TRUMP Coin.

I was diagnosed with HIV in 2010. Very disappointing that public health experts on the Presidential Advisory Council on HIV and AIDS were removed. We have the tools to end the epidemic in the USA and globally. Saddening that “preventable HIV cases” are emerging. www.advocate.com/news/trump-p...

Trump quietly purges presidential HIV advisory council, sparking public health fears (exclusive)
“We have all the tools to end HIV. It just makes me sad to see a lot of this infrastructure being systematically dismantled across the country," one advisor told The Advocate.

“Parents accounted for just 16% of demands for books to be removed from shelves, while 72% came from ‘pressure groups and government entities that include elected officials, board members and administrators.’” @lgbtqnation.com www.lgbtqnation.com/2025/04/most...

Most book ban requests are coming from organizations & officials. They're targeting LGBTQ+ authors. - LGBTQ Nation
Individual parents are not behind efforts to ban books. This is not a grassroots effort.

The story of Ruth is driven by God’s care for vulnerable people. What if God’s people decided to drive Ruth back to her own land? What if Boaz was insensitive to the plight of sojourners & vulnerable women in his field? What if the town withheld care for the poor, the sojourner, and the elderly?

For many transgender veterans, new anti-trans policies don't just feel like a loss of health care — they feel like an attempt to erase them entirely. 🔗: www.advocate.com/news/transge...

And the next president can pardon them anyway, is that how it works now?
The image is a screenshot of an X post by Annie (@AnnieForTruth
), featuring a verification badge and a "Follow back" button, along with a laughing emoji. The post includes a graphic with a gradient background transitioning from purple to pink. The text on the graphic reads, "THOSE PEOPLE AREN’T attacking Tesla dealerships. THEY ARE tourists showing love. I learned that on January 6th 2021." The text sarcastically references the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot, drawing a parallel to claims about attacks on Tesla dealerships being misrepresented as acts of affection.

Donold is now classifying protests at Tesla dealerships as ‘domestic terrorism.’ Protest at a Tesla dealership and you get arrested as a terrorist. But attack the Capitol and you get a pardon.
