WOW!

"On a June afternoon in 2009, something quietly extraordinary unfolded in the Diplomatic Room of the White House, a moment so human, so warm, and so beautifully unexpected that it stopped political Washington in its tracks. President Barack Obama, the 44th President of the United States and the first African American to hold that office, gently escorted 87-year-old former First Lady Nancy Reagan into the room to sign the Ronald Reagan Centennial Commission Act, a bipartisan piece of legislation that passed the Senate unanimously, honoring the upcoming 100th birthday of America's 40th President. Two people from opposite ends of the political spectrum, bound together in that moment by something far bigger than party lines: grace, history, and a shared love of country. And then it happened. As President Obama picked up his pen and began to sign the bill into law, Nancy Reagan leaned in and exclaimed with a delighted laugh, 'Oh, you're a lefty!' She was not talking about politics. She was talking about his left hand. The room burst into laughter, and in that single unscripted moment, the walls between Republican and Democrat, between generations, between two entirely different Americas, came tumbling beautifully down. Obama had publicly praised Nancy in his remarks that day, saying she had been 'extraordinarily gracious to both me and Michelle during our transition here,' and describing how, in what he called her 'long goodbye' with President Reagan through his decade-long battle with Alzheimer's disease, she had become 'a voice on behalf of millions of families experiencing the depleting, aching reality of Alzheimer's disease.' When Obama later signed an executive order to resume federal stem cell research, one of the very first phone calls he made was to Nancy Reagan, because nobody understood better than she did what that research could mean for suffering families across America. This was not a political moment. This was a human one. A young president honoring an old love story. A nation, briefly, at its very best.

YES!! #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

Do you?

It’s going to be hard to celebrate our independence this year, when it’s pretty clear we’re losing it.

My son, Cannon, is nonverbal, Autistic, & has a rare genetic disease. He has many struggles but he’s happy, works hard, & he listens. Today, he received the Outstanding Student Award. It’s the first time he’s ever received an end-of-year recognition & I’m so proud of him.

EVER since Ukraine stopped sharing information with the U.S… Ukraine became stronger on the battlesfield. Is that making you suspicious of the Trump administration?

@chiky_handlr @kangaroos991 Makes you wonder if the information they shared was passed on to………

Vote Blue.

I pay my taxes. You pay YOUR taxes. If we don't pay our taxes, its simple: You get fined, or you go to jail. Unless you name is trump: He, and his family, were somehow just given blanket pardons for any and all tax crimes -- past, present or future. THIS IS A HUGE SCANDAL.

🇺🇸 Trump: “A year ago, our country was an embarrassment. The whole world laughed at us.” Fun fact: Trump was president a year ago. 😂🔥

George Conway: Donald Trump is a man who represents all the things we teach our children not to be. He’s a liar. He’s a thief. He’s a molester. He has no remorse, no shame, no empathy. He has no loyalty to the law, to the Constitution. This man is the lowest character of all If you agree raise your hand ✋

After this Thursday’s show, the Ed Sullivan Theater will go dark, and we’ll lose one of the nation’s funniest and most courageous, truthful, and gentlemanly critics of Trump and his regime. Farewell, and thank you, Stephen. robertreich.substack.com/p/farewell-and…

Fact.

@maddenifico @BreedLove7777 Would love to see this. But it won’t happen. Not in this corrupt system owned by the very rich.

Project 2028: Let's make it happen, y'all. 🙌💪👏✊👇

And what is Congress going to do about it? WHERE is Congress? Where are the Republicans? Where is the other equal branch of government? @SpeakerJohnson @LeaderJohnThune

Breaking: The Trump administration has forever banned the IRS from auditing the taxes of Trump, his family members, and his companies.

Besides Iran now openly mocking his empty dumbass threats to wipe the country off the face of the earth, this is the real reason TACO Trump chickened out again.
