I just can't believe this country is tolerating this.
I just can't believe it.

Un-fucking-believable. Trump just casually dismissed the child sex trafficking and rape victims of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell as "victims, or whatever." 😡👇

NEW: Speaker Mike Johnson told reporters today that Pope Leo XIV doesn't understand “something called the just war doctrine.”
Pope Leo is an Augustinian friar who spent twelve years leading Augustine’s religious order.

Sec. Kennedy: Mercury is absolutely—it’s the most powerful neurotoxin we know of in the universe.
Rep. Harder: So why are you working for an administration that is doubling the amount of mercury pollution in our air and water?
Sec. Kennedy: I am running HHS and I’m ending the chronic disease epidemic. I’m not going to comment on that because I don’t know anything about it.
Rep. Harder: Well, that’s very convenient for you, and it shows a significant degree of cowardice. It’s not just mercury. President Trump in July 2025 granted 50 chemical plants—
Sec. Kennedy: Why don’t you ask me something that I’m in charge of instead of other things?
Rep. Harder: Are you not in charge of Health and Human Services?

A retired lawyer in the U.S. was watching the news when he saw the story about the new Trump commemorative coin and something immediately didn't sit right with him.
So he did what lawyers do. He went digging...
And he found it. A federal law passed in 1866 that explicitly prohibits living people from appearing on U.S. currency. It's not a grey area. It's not open to interpretation. It's been sitting in the books for over 150 years.
The last time this actually happened was 1926 when a coin featuring Calvin Coolidge was minted while he was still alive and serving as president. The backlash was immediate. The coins were pulled. And the law was reaffirmed...
Now this retired lawyer has filed a federal lawsuit against the U.S. Mint not because of who is on the coin, but because the law says it simply cannot be done. Full stop...
No political agenda. No protest. Just one guy, a dusty legal statute, and a federal case that nobody in Washington apparently saw coming

Trump trashes California.
California pays his war bills.
Perhaps it’s time we look into cutting you off, @realDonaldTrump???

🚨 California sends $275 billion more to the federal government than it gets back each year.

Ana Navarro: “You’ve got JD Vance out there telling the Pope to be careful with his words. When you work for a guy that celebrates Bob Mueller’s death, celebrates Rob Reiner’s death, posts images of the Obama’s as apes — you don’t have the moral standing to tell anybody to be careful with their words”

#Peace is not something we must invent: it is something we must embrace by accepting our neighbor as a brother or sister. We do not choose our brothers and sisters: we must simply accept one another! We are one family, inhabiting the same home: this wonderful planet that ancient cultures have cared for over millennia. #ApostolicJourney #Cameroon

Woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic, and political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth. #ApostolicJourney #Cameroon vatican.va/content/leo-xi…
