The repubs have income and the dems don't? How did we ever get here with a prez who has no concept of how the government works? When will this nightmare end? (and the fact that he thinks he can buy votes for the election in November is terrifying)

You would have thought RFK Jr. would have spoken out against the destruction of his uncle’s memorial. But, apparently, he doesn’t use his position to protect his own family—just hurt ours.

Earth is not an object we possess. We are a species living inside a living system upon which our own lives depend. We have become extraordinarily powerful without becoming equally wise. And now humanity stands at a threshold. Thank you, Pope Leo! 🌎 🕊️ #Pinks

Mayors Giuliani and Bloomberg refused to tell the public the deadly truth about the toxic environment caused by 9/11. How many lives could have been saved if they had told the truth? Another terrible lesson in the need for honest leadership. open.substack.com/pub/america/...

Trump now wants to rename the Strait of Hormuz to the "Trump Strait." He should rename it to the "Epstein Strait" since the Epstein files are what he's trying to distract you from.

September 25th, 9/25, is officially Dolly Parton Day in California. A tribute to “9 to 5,” but more importantly, to Dolly’s decades of music, generosity and service, including her Imagination Library helping California kids fall in love with reading.

This iconic 1971 photo of Gloria Steinem and Dorothy Pitman Hughes has always said so much without saying a word. Two women. Two raised fists. One shared fight for equality. Dorothy passed in 2022. Now Gloria is gone too. Two giants who helped change America. Rest in power, Gloria. ✊🏼✊🏾

21,000 trades since Trump took office. A thousand more in June alone. Every one of those trades makes Trump richer. None of them lower your rent, your grocery bill, or your health insurance. That’s the whole point of the office to him now. Get richer. #TrumpsCorruptionCostsUS
