New ad dropped:
Trump standing looking indifferent while a man possibly dies next to him. A few bald men hold his legs up in the air as if he’s going to take a giant shit or give birth. Sure, maybe it’s to help the blood flow to his head faster. Either way, graphic reads “Trump care, concepts of a plan since 2015.”

“They should’ve come here legally,” MAGA says. Well, they did. One Afghan interpreter was arrested after a green card appointment. Another? Detained after his asylum hearing. Both helped U.S. troops. Now ICE wants to deport them.

Pope Francis leaves legacy as environmental conscience for the world
The pope made ecological concern a cornerstone of his 12-year papacy and positioned care of creation as both a nonnegotiable pillar of the Christian faith and "essential to a life of virtue."

This is terrifying in America. ICE agents are showing up masked—these abductions must stop. If you’re going to detain someone, show your face, present a warrant, and proper ID. Disappearing people from their families without evidence or accountability isn’t law enforcement—it’s state-sponsored fear.
