So if I haven't pissed you off already, this one might. If it reads terribly tomorrow, blame the flu or whatever this is. 😃 I was raised Catholic — my mom is still the gold standard, never misses Mass. But I have to say, this new Pope Leo XIV is really disappointing to a lot of traditional and conservative Catholics. I don't debate Christian denominations much anymore, but I do think the pope should largely stay out of day-to-day politics. Popes have been political throughout history, and it sometimes served a purpose, but right now it feels counterproductive. I still have deep respect for the Catholic Church and my Catholic friends. Without the Church preserving those historic Christian documents for 2,000 years, a lot would have been lost. That said, Pope Leo has been consistently critical of Trump — turning down invitations, using strong language about war ('God doesn't answer the prayers of those who wage war'), and openly pushing back against efforts to deport illegal immigrants. I get that popes speak on moral issues, but this feels more like picking sides. The cardinals might have chosen poorly on this one. I respect all my Catholic brothers and sisters, even though I myself have chosen not to practice Catholicism anymore. That said, I have no respect for this pope’s approach. #PopeLeoXIV





🚨🇲🇽🇨🇺 JUST IN: Mexico just shipped over 96 tons of food to Cuba. Beans, rice, provisions. Total aid now over 3,125 tons. Not sanctions. Not bombs. Not regime change. Food. Solidarity. Humanity. While the US starves Cuba with a 60-year blockade, Mexico sends grain. While Washington demands obedience, Mexico offers brotherhood. This is what the Global South looks like when it works together. No empire. No conditions. Just people feeding people. Cuba sends doctors to the poorest places on earth. Mexico sends food to Cuba. The US sends bombs. The empire sends silence. The world sends solidarity. The blockade is a crime. The aid is a witness. And history is recording both.



Who killed Goliath? If you said David, your modern Bible says you're wrong. Open your ESV or NASB to 2 Samuel 21:19. It explicitly says Elhanan killed Goliath. Your Bible has a glaring contradiction in it. And your pastor is too much of a coward to talk about it. 🧵

We all agree that Iran & Co have very precise missiles, yes? So why do we not hear of them hitting hospitals and schools every day? Even "by accident" ? Ask yourself why this is the case, and what this says about their military doctrine, their values, and their mindset.


Tomorrow, millions of Americans will be joining No Kings rallies. We will be saying NO to authoritarianism. NO to oligarchy. NO to endless wars. NO to the continued attacks against the working class. I look forward to seeing you in St. Paul, MN.

Jane Fonda: “This is the first time in the history of the US that an authoritarian regime has broken through. Worldwide historians who study these things all agree it has never happened so fast in any industrialized democracy. He is moving to consolidate very very fast which means right now we have to use the tools we have to stop it”
