Today, President Biden met with five members of the Little Rock Nine – the first Black students to desegregate Little Rock Central High. Our nation will never forget their courage and heroism.

Damn. #RIP Award-winning actor Dabney Coleman -- who starred in hit movies such as Melvin and Howard, 9 to 5, On Golden Pond, and Tootsie -- has reportedly passed away at the age of 92.

He won an Emmy in 1987 for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Miniseries or a Special for his role Sworn to Silence, but was nominated six times. He also won a Golden Globe Award. https://local12.com/news/entertainment/report-actor-dabney-coleman-passes-away-dead-death-age-92-melvin-howard-on-golden-pond-tootsie-movies-film-television-emmy-award

Corrupt Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is continuing his gross political attack on a faith-based organization and its volunteers.

"In a filing seeking to shut down an El Paso migrant shelter, the attorney general displays his ignorance of the religious beliefs held by a quarter of Texans.”

The #LGBTQ community is on notice.

Pass it on

Reminder: Using a school to house soldiers is a war crime precisely because your enemy is forced to bomb schools just to defend themselves.

Of course, this was UNRWA, so it was never a real school to begin with, just a terrorist training academy.

UNRWA is Hamas, Hamas is UNRWA.

NYT just now on Mastodon:

"Trump’s Defense Cast Michael Cohen as Untrustworthy"

Trump trusted him for, what, 10 years?

@GreenFire It’s related enough.

Again, if we let incompetent and intentionally destructive forces run our country like a Trump administration that hired either incompetent people into important positions or put people in charge whose intentions are to destroy the agency they work for, these things will be the consequences.

Democrats have also tried time and time again to get Republicans to agree to an immigration bill that would more fully fund immigration services.

I’ve been waiting 18 months for this user tip.

Trump: "If you're Jewish, and you're a Democrat -- and that includes Alan Dershowitz -- you ought to have your head examined when you see what's going on with Israel."

Tommy Tuberville says he went to Gotham to help an accused felon threaten a judge's family.

Via David Lurie:

Tuberville is a bad co-conspirator.

Aaron Rupar:

Tommy Tuberville admits on Newsmax that "one of the reasons he went" to NYC yesterday was to "overcome this gag order" #Trump #GagOrder

4 years ago, an exec for a top PPE producer testified to Congress that in Jan 2020 (as fear of covid began to spread) his firm offered to ramp up production to make 1.7 million N95 masks available to the public per week.

The Trump admin said no.

The UN revised the death toll numbers from Gaza and basically cut them in about a half. Hamas was manipulating the numbers? Shocking

Rand Paul wants to cut Social Security & Medicare because he’s a greedy selfish heartless soulless sexist racist scumbag.

He’s also a total moron & a Russian asset.

America will never be great as long our government is infested with fascist treason weasels like him.

Vote Blue.
