Sensitive documents, including #WhiteHouse floor plans, improperly shared with thousands

The inadvertent sharing of a #GoogleDrive folder with the entire staff of the #GSA was the latest instance of sloppy handling of sensitive documents under both #Biden & #Trump.

Yale is not sending us their best. At least Harvard is trying to make up for it a little.

Looks like hundreds of peaceful (but very loud) #protestors showed up outside the Shillbilly House, aka Shady Vance’s house, in #DC today—chanting, drumming, and embarrassing Shady
Sorry, JD, but no amount of bootlicking or bad takes will silence the sound of #democracy rising

@blogdiva

The problem with the #left is so many judgments out there are absolute

But the only way to get #progress in this world is to be relative:

Is someone moving in a good direction, regardless of where they are starting from?

Then you applaud that

That is true #morality

Absolutism is just ego masturbation. It doesn't change the world

So I mourn the passing of #PopeFrancis

I recognize the good he did in the confines he operated in, on issues dear to the left

And so should you

#RIP

Breaking: Pete Hegseth accidentally added journalist to Signal chat discussing JD Vance’s plans to kill the Pope.

🚨”Trump’s preparing an EO to end ALL African activity & diplomacy in the State Dept, & close ALL embassies on the cont +the dept will end its contract with Howard U, a historically Black inst, to recruit candidates for fellowships, which are to be terminated. The goal of those fellowships has been to help students from underrepresented groups get a chance at entering the Foreign Svc soon after grad-.”

The #Trump regime wants to erase black ppl.

Van Hollen on Fox News Sunday: "My whole point here is if you deprive one man of his constitutional rights, you threaten the constitutional rights of everybody ... if you threaten the rule of law for one person, you threaten if for everybody in America."

Ideally, the most clueless person in the world and the President of the United States of America would be two different persons.

Senator Chris #VanHollen, the Maryland Democrat who traveled to #ElSalvador last week & met with #KilmarAbregoGarcia, a man from his state who was wrongfully deported by the #Trump admin, said on CNN that Trump “is trying to change the subject” by claiming the man,, is a member of the MS-13 gang. He said Trump is “outright defying” #SCOTUS’ order to facilitate Abrego Garcia’s return.

The pocket constitutions that Republicans keep in their suit jackets are just props sadly.
