This is so awesome and I’ve never seen this while watching TV: After every ball that is put in play, Shōta bows to the home plate umpire when receiving a new baseball. I love this guy so much. #ShōtaImanaga

“My sister had breast cancer. My other sister had uterine cancer. As a nurse practitioner I’m aware of five people now with pancreatic cancer. I know 20 people who have other cancers or died of cancer here. Everybody is aware this is going on.” thenewlede.org/2024/05/an-iow…

Mike Johnson says Republicans must take total control of government so they can enact their Project 2025 agenda, including a national abortion ban, or else America is “facing very serious threats”
“I voted for Donald Trump two times but then when January 6 came and I saw what had happened and how he allowed it to happen, I could not in good conscience continue to support him.”
Shame on you @IAGovernor! You want folks to RETIRE to Iowa? Low taxes won't do it when you ignore the horrendous quality of nursing home care in the state. Iowa nursing homes added to national list of worst care facilities. iowacapitaldispatch.com/2024/05/06/iow… via @IowaCapDispatch
This is Trump's Christian spiritual advisor. She left her 1st husband, dumped the 2nd one after cheating on him, then married a member of the rock band Journey, broke into the band's bank account & embezzled 100s of 1000s of $$ after committing fraud and running a Ponzi scheme.

Mike Johnson on Trump’s 88 felony charges: “Trump has done nothing wrong...We need accountability...It’s bigger than President Trump. It’s about the people’s faith in our system of justice...All of these cases need to be dropped because they are a threat to our entire system.”

CNN: Judge Aileen Cannon has indefinitely postponed Trump’s classified documents trial in Florida. Cannon canceled the May trial date and did not set a new date.
I used to ignore Evangelicals and could care less about them. But when they went all in for Trump I lost any respect. Now I view them as a crazy cult led by lowlife conmen and perverts.
Texas evangelical pastor, Ronnie Killingsworth, has been found guilty of raping 3 young girls who attended his church.
My son picked out a @CaitlinClark22 WNBA t-shirt and wears it proudly. It makes me so proud!

In #Strongmen, I give the Russia Orthodox Church propping up Putin as a primary example of the authoritarian bargains autocrats strike with elites. Religious institutions cover the corrupt leader with a veneer of moral legitimacy.
Patriarch Kirill tells Putin the head of state sometimes "has to take fateful, formidable decisions" that "involve victims." He compares Putin to Alexander Nevsky, the medieval ruler who defeated Teutonic knights, and prays he'll stay in power "until the end of the century."
The funniest thing is— when you have actual knowldge, and are disgusted by Trump and everything his criminal orbit stands for— the MAGA cult think they know your politics, and where you stand on every issue. Ha ha ha. Pathetic.
Ha ha ha. Touched a few faulty nerves?
@MichLKosinski Michelle, brace yourself for incoming MAGAts assault. @kilmeade and the lovely Christian @ainsleyearhardt just blew you up on their morning show. Closeted MAGAts are real, they don’t mind being deceitful. You’re not very principled if you’re embarrassed by your own views.
The entire Murdoch empire is based on shameless ugliness.
"Maybe Paul Pelosi needs the hammer instead of the medal?” Paul Pelosi was almost brutally MURDERED by an attacker's hammer, and this ghoul, Rachel Campos-Duffy, thinks that was hilarious? Seriously, Fox News? Telling your audience that attempted murder is laugh-worthy?…
The apparent failure to prosecute a clear national security threat who is running for the nation's highest office where he can compound the damage he has already done may ultimately be seen as one of the great legal failures in US history.
The MAGA rage, built on lies, hatred, greed, and jealousy— Is a suppurating wound on American democracy.
Republicans keep bringing up bills about freedom for refrigerators and liberty for laundry—all while trying to take freedom and liberty away from America’s woman. Apparently they think home appliances deserve more rights than people.
Republican Former Lt. Governor: I am voting for Joe Biden. He is a decent person. I’m voting for Joe Biden over Donald Trump, who has no moral compass. Does anybody think anything's gonna get done if Donald Trump is the president? I mean, all he's going to do is go on this…
