- Who wants to help us hand out treats to the bunnies? 🐇
- Love your bunnies! Just looking at them and imagining a snuggle makes me feel better.
- If you’re not disturbed by America welcoming in 50 white South African ‘refugees’, something is wrong with you
- And South Africa says they are not refugees and were not being persecuted. Felon 47 just wants to seed our country with more white supracists who support apartheid. That's about as racist as you can get!
- Breaking News: Robert Francis Prevost was chosen to be the first American pope. He will be known as Pope Leo XIV. nyti.ms/3EUsnNI
- Can't wait to see the REAL Pope in his papal robes...no more of the atheist pretender.
- That's a fact...cutting off food and medical care from children who are barely surviving constitutes genocide in my mind. If the shoe fits, wear it and I hope you get blisters.
- Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost, a native of Chicago who is now the first American-born pope, has spent most of his career outside of the U.S, ministering to the dispossessed and marginalized. The “Latin Yankee,” as he is known in Rome, worked 20 years in Peru.
- This is an excellent choice...we need a Pope who understands what poverty does to people and is prepared to fight it with all the power and authority of his new position. May God bless and guide him to serve the people to the best of his ability.
- Another day of reminding everyone of Carl Sagan’s eerily accurate warning about the dangers of not being able to ask skeptical scientific questions to those in power or authority.
- He is describing exactly what we are heading into...the Trump Dark Ages. I don't know how we can fight this, but fight we must, for all the very salient reasons he has outlined.
- MERKLEY: Are you gonna launch an investigation of the reported violation of the due process of several hundred people? P: It is not for me to call the balls & strikes M: You haven't read the Constitution? It says 'all persons'...it concerns me you're not familiar w/the core concept of due process
- Wow, what a lot of tapdancing and not answering the question! I knew he is going to be a disaster, and he's that and more. He makes ny head hurt!
- Happy 99th birthday to the man who gave voice to the wild. 🎉 Sir David Attenborough, thank you for a lifetime dedicated to the natural world, and for sharing its story with wisdom, wonder, and grace. You've inspired generations to fall in love with nature.
- I hope he will be with us for a while yet. My husband and I became birders after seeing his program, "The Life of Birds". We will forever be grateful for all he has done to educate the world about climate, environment and nature. He is irreplaceable. ❤
- Honestly smart
- NEW: In the Mahmoud Khalil case, Judge Farbiarz orders the government to give him a COMPLETE LIST of every time since 1975 it has invoked the secretary of state's power to deport someone for foreign-policy reasons—including a description of each case's facts and a copy of the official determination.
- This is quite detailed and specific...heartened to see the judge holding their feet to the fire and demanding specifics and precedence.
