Sadly, I know too many people who do exactly this.

A Georgia couple who terrorized a Black family at a child’s birthday party with Confederate flags, racial slurs, guns, and death threats were sentenced for a hate crime. Joe Torres got 20 years; Kyla Norton got 15..😳🚨

The DeSantis administration has been spending more than $1 million a day to run Alligator Alcatraz. nytimes.com/2026/05/07/us/…

While YOU are budgeting to pay all your bills, Donald Trump is profiting off the presidency to the tune of $6.5 billion. It’s the most blatant corruption we’ve ever seen in the White House.

MacFarlane: Let’s just take the next three business days. Tomorrow: Southern Poverty Law Center arraignment. Tomorrow: Mark Kelly, Democratic senator from Arizona, goes to court against Pete Hegseth to argue about retribution. Monday: James Comey, preliminary hearing in Greenville, North Carolina. My reporting is that over the past 15 months, Laura, the Department of Justice has lost 3,400 attorneys who have quit, retired, or been fired. That’s an awful lot of people. You can’t just go to the prosecutor store and pick up some new ones. It takes time to backfill the purge that’s happened.

This is fascism.👇

This is simple truth. Jack Smith Calls the Justice Dept. ‘Corrupted’ by Trump and His Allies nytimes.com/2026/05/06/us/…

It’s not political to say stop voting for Republicans. At this point it’s self preservation.

Today I sent this letter to Attorney General Paxton regarding his office’s troubling handling of the Adam Hoffman child sexual abuse case in Waco. To me and to many Texans — and certainly to child sexual abuse and assault victims and their families — the plea deal General Paxton agreed to (serious felony crimes reduced to misdemeanor charges, only 30 days in county jail, no mandatory registration as a sex offender and no permanent loss of Hoffman’s law license) is incomprehensible. As the state’s top law enforcement officer, General Paxton owes all Texans an answer. #txlege

.@SherrodBrown: Let's ban the health insurance companies from denying care that your doctors say you need. If that doesn't work, then fine them when they deny your claims. Let's make it illegal for the drug companies to charge Americans more than they do in other countries. The same pill should be the same price. We're going to take on the politicians who are more interested in enriching themselves than they are in serving you

🚨WHOA. This flew right over the media’s head of course but Marco Rubio declared that the goal of the Iran War is for things to be the way they were before Trump started the Iran War. Every one of these people are criminally incompetent.

Ramon Menera is a U.S. citizen. Federal agents detained him outside his own home, in front of his child, after citing his accent and demanding ID. PAXIS.app explains: Accent is not evidence. Citizens do not have to carry citizenship papers. Minnesota is not a “show me your papers” state. This was not public safety. This was racist profiling. FIGHT ICE: gofundme.com/f/PAXIS

The incompetence, coverups, and lack of accountability from this administration is truly staggering.

This you?

🚨Republicans in Ohio have nominated Rodney Creech in a landslide election to represent them in Ohio. Creech was accused of sexual misconduct with a minor relative. Republicans enthusiastically voted for an accused pedophile 58-42. GOP is the party of pedophilia.

A massive undercover prostitution sting in Florida, brilliantly named "Polk Around and Find Out," arrested 266 people. Among them? Prominent MAGA influencers and a pardoned January 6 insurrectionist. You can't make this up. Full story: dworkinsubstack.com/p/we-investiga…

They can’t defend the war so they attack the young people questioning it. @MikeNellis

Rep. Yassamin Ansari: "Howard Lutnick is a pathological liar who is enabling the most egregious cover-up in American history."

MAGA, can you see how ridiculous you sound or can’t you because you are in the middle of it? Serious question.

👇Okay, who made this? 🤣🤣🤣

Paul Pressler transformed the Southern Baptist Convention into a right-wing political powerhouse. He also allegedly abused boys for decades while SBC leaders protected predators, silenced victims, and lied about reform. That's his real legacy. friendlyatheist.com/p/the-dark-leg…
