Trump and Republicans don’t want to prevent voter fraud, they want to prevent voting. Republicans want you to believe that the 2020 election was stolen, the insurrection was justified, and their voter suppression laws are about election security. They are lying! #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed

The Catholic Diocese of Brownsville is working to gather information on Sunday’s arrest of a nun as she was walking to church in McAllen, calling circumstances behind the actions by federal immigration agents “wildly disturbing.”

Questions remain about ICE arrest of South Texas nun
ICE detained the 56-year-old nun from Nigeria on Sunday but released her later that day after federal lawmakers intervened.

Today is the 82nd anniversary of the Normandy Invasion, commonly known as D-Day. Let's take a moment to remember the brave service of those Allied men and women who crossed a treacherous sea to bring freedom to Europe, and those brave members of the French Resistance who aided them.

On D-Day, we honor the courage of Allied troops who stormed Normandy and helped liberate Europe from tyranny. Their sacrifice changed the course of history. As a veteran, I carry that legacy. We owe them gratitude, remembrance, and a commitment to the freedoms they defended.

There’s been a lot of talk in this race about what makes a "real man." A man does what’s right when no one is watching. He upholds his commitments to his family and neighbors. He doesn’t lie, cheat, & steal his way through life. Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.

Wanna know a secret? MAGA is hemorrhaging voters. The paid shills are trying to keep sanewashing this, but there’s a reason Trump’s primary performance doesn’t translate to general elections: His base is shrinking, and voters are tired of the bullshit.

Battle of Anzio. Allied troops landed at Anzio on 1/22/1944 to outflank German forces on the Gustav Line south of Rome, Italy. Germans pinned down Allied troops for months until Allied forces broke out in late May 1944. Roughy 7,000 Allied troops were killed & 35,000 were wounded or missing.

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Why should Congress have the right to hide its own sexual harassment files from the public while demanding transparency from everyone else? If taxpayer money was used to settle claims, the public has a right to know who was protected and why. Accountability cannot only apply to ordinary people.

FACT OF THE DAY. 8 May 1945. Victory Day in Europe (“VE Day”) was commemorated in Britain and in many other countries throughout the world even though the Final Instrument of Unconditional Surrender was not signed by the German armed forces until just after midnight in Berlin on 9 May 1945.

On this date in 1945, a German delegation went to General Dwight D. Eisenhower's headquarters in Reims, France, and, in the presence of Soviet as well as U.S., British, and French delegations, signed the surrender documents that ended the European phase of World War II.
