Trump's GOP is holding on to the generational gains they made with Black voters in the 2024 election. The GOP has gained 12 pts on the Dems on party id with African Americans vs. Trump term 1 at this point. Trump's approval with Black voters is higher than it was in term 1.

It is not that hard to think of many things that the health care providers, the pharma sector, and the insurance companies need to give up to improve the system. What about the rest of us? lnk.thebulwark.com/4tYhy0S

Young people represent the hope of a country and the Church. Investing in education, training, and entrepreneurship for young people is a strategic choice for peace. It is also the only way to combat the scourges of drugs, prostitution, and apathy, which devastate too many young lives in an increasingly dramatic way. #ApostolicJourney #Cameroon

#Peace is everyone’s responsibility, beginning with civil authorities. To govern means to love one’s own country as well as neighboring countries. The commandment “love your neighbor as yourself” is equally applicable to international relations! #ApostolicJourney #Cameroon vatican.va/content/leo-xi…

Godspeed to the people of Hungary today, who deserve to escape the misrule of a corrupt Kremlin lackey. May they return to the path of democracy and prosperity without bloodshed. 🇭🇺

The kids want hope and optimism. lnk.thebulwark.com/4tYBgK7

@ChrisCarr_Ga Antifa cartels??!! Are you serious right now?? This White Tiger notion that Antifa is even a “thing” beyond a collective of anti-fascist protesters??!! How about being a governor that protects people’s civil liberties and due process?? Rather than boasting about boogeymen…🤦🏽‍♂️

Aren’t you tired of rich guys spending money on negative political ads? I am the only Republican to prosecute Antifa, cartels, and gang members and take on Obama, Biden, and Stacey Abrams in court and win. I helped create 84,000 jobs, making Georgia number one. Lower taxes. Make crime illegal again. Put working families first.

@officer_Lew Drew, the video is BS. They are wearing Covid masks and look at the fuel prices. This video has nothing to do with your post. Come on man

Fasting is a concrete way to prepare ourselves to receive the Word of God. Abstaining from food is an ancient ascetic practice that is essential on the path of conversion. It helps us to identify and order our “appetites,” keeping our hunger and thirst for justice alive and freeing us from complacency. It teaches us to pray and act responsibly towards our neighbor. #Lent

Trump’s second-term pardons are historic in their enormity—billions in fines erased, allies protected, donors rewarded, DOJ undermined, and election norms threatened. Corruption looks less like an exception and more like the rule, says Cato’s Dan Greenberg. ow.ly/PiYw50YqcO0

In a culture shaped by speed, outrage, and constant distraction, many Christians find it difficult to cultivate resilient faith. How can we tune out the noise and hear the “still, small voice”? Drawing on the themes of his book Slow Theology, co-author Nijay Gupta @eng_Scrptr will join us to reflect on the formative practices that strengthen faith over time and how slowing down can renew our love of God and neighbor and sustain a more durable, authentic faith in a restless age. Join us March 13 at 1:30 PM ET. Register here: ttf.org/events/online-… With thanks to co-host @BrazosPress for support of this event!

Q: "With respect to…Hakeem Jeffries' statement that the Iran mission will end in failure. What kind of message does that send to our enemies, and what does it do to the motivation of our troops?" Hegseth: "I've been through that movie before with the Democrats rooting against the country…He's been privy to briefs that we've provided. He knows how effective this has been. He's being disingenuous."

Hegseth: “The Iranian Navy rests at the bottom of the Persian Gulf. In fact, last night we sank their prized ship, the Soleimani. Looks like POTUS got him twice.”

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang: "AI will create more millionaires in 5 years than the internet did in 20." But he didn't stop there... He revealed exactly how it'll happen and how you can capitalize on it:

Fox News: “This is a significant development.”

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. warned against the “luxury of cooling off” and the “tranquilizing drug of gradualism” because justice delayed is justice denied. At a time when our nation faces deep political division, challenges to voting rights, widening economic inequality, and global crises that demand moral leadership, his words remain urgent. There is no room for complacency. Real change requires clarity, courage, and sustained action. The Beloved Community will not be created by waiting. It must be pursued with purpose and persistence. #TheKingCenter #MLK #BelovedCommunity #Justice

Trump: I flew to Iraq. I was extremely brave. I said to my people, 'Am I allowed to give myself the Congressional Medal of Honor?'…Someday I'm going to try. I'm going to test the law
