Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.

"Why should my tax dollars go to giving houses to people who can't afford them?" Why should MY tax dollars should go to satisfying your desire to see desperate people living desperate lives? I'd rather save money and solve the problem, rather than spend money to exacerbate it.

He's so right. Are we going to hold every politician of both parties responsible for every comment by every podcaster and influencer who is allegedly on their side? This is all ridiculous...a fake litmus test issue created by Republicans and enabled by the media.

An Amazon worker died in one of Amazon's warehouses. As he lay on the floor dying, management told the other workers: "Just turn around and don't look. Get back to work." That was a human being. A child of God. Sacrificed on the altar of corporate greed.

The killing of wild horses was written in Project 2025. They told us they would murder wild horses so they could make money off the land, and now they're doing it, Project 2025 calls for prioritizing fossil fuels over conservation. It urges DOI to expand drilling, mining, & logging on public lands while rolling back environmental review. It targets the Endangered Species Act, weakening critical habitat designations. It calls for downsizing national monuments & revoking the Antiquities Act, which protects public lands. It explicitly addresses wild horses and burros, calling on Congress to enact laws permitting the Bureau Land Management to dispose of them
