Lionesses keep the male lions in check out in the wild. I’d love to see women doing similar things here in society.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. 🎀 This month, we honor survivors, remember those we’ve lost, stand beside those still fighting, and encourage every woman to know her body, understand her risk, and prioritize her health. Awareness matters. Early detection matters. Women matter. #Pinks 💖✨

The same people who's mantra was "back the blue" immediately pivoted to "back the blue...except the ones trying to stop an insurrection at the Capitol, fuck those guys." This was the moment that confirmed that MAGA is a cult, choosing violent criminals over police officers. All for their leader.

Sen. Eric Schmitt was so overzealous to try and get Jack Smith, a good and honest man who has done great work, that Schmitt embarrassed himself by accusing Smith of going to the wrong basketball game. You can't make this stuff up. And right wing media will pretend it never happened.

At a time when the most influential leaders of the U.S. need to stand up loudly and clearly for the rule of law, they are leading the charge in the opposite direction. But not Jack Smith. Kudos to him for continuing to be a much needed voice of clarity.

The Pope reminds me of a version of Catholicism I knew growing up as a young man attending anti-war and anti-death penalty protests, where I met elderly Catholics who shared their version of faith with me. I learned that Catholicism was about love and mercy for the weak, the condemned, and the poor.

I think something to consider here is that Collins voted to confirm Russ Vought as OMB Director despite the fact that he said a billion times that he thought Trump had a constitutional right to illegally impound funds, and now she’s doing shocked Pikachu reactions.
Sen. Susan Collins • fAl
劉
@SenatorCollins
X.com
Without warning or consultation, Congress just received an $810 million package of pocket rescissions from the Administration. This is the most recent attempt by this Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to undermine Congress's Constitutional power of the purse.
This move shows that OMB intentionally withheld these funds for months to execute this unlawful cancellation of appropriations that were approved on a bipartisan basis and signed into law.Not only is the delay itself an impoundment that was not reported to Congress, but also it is a usurpation of Congress's appropriations powers.
OMB is an agency of the executive branch. It does not get to decide which programs are worth funding.
The independent Government Accountability Office has concluded that pocket rescissions are unlawful and not permitted by the Impoundment Control Act. Any effort to rescind appropriated funds without congressional approval is a clear violation of the law.
I will work with my colleagues to address these illegal actions.

Let’s be clear—health care is a human right, not a privilege. This is yet another attempt by the Trump administration to kick hundreds of thousands of vulnerable Americans off their healthcare. Millions are already struggling to access healthcare—and this is their plan? We will be fighting back.

Prime Minister Netanyahu's lies about @mayor.nyc.gov don't change the fact that Netanyahu is a wanted war criminal who has blocked justice for Americans killed on his watch. If there's anyone who should be shamed & ashamed, it's him. He's lucky he was even allowed into our country.
