Less Concerned; More Hopeful

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

Things most Americans agree on:

Groceries cost too much.

Tariffs suck and make no sense.

Congress and Presidents shouldn’t trade stocks.

The debt is a mess.

The border should be secure, but legal immigration is good.

Endless wars are stupid, especially ones that nobody wants and have never been explained.

Americans are exhausted.

AI is like my new best friend that also might be trying to take my job, my ability to think for myself, and my humanity in the process. Yo like I love you, but WTF, but I still love you.

Diversity is actually awesome! The opposite is boring AF.

Canadians are super fucking cool.

Mexicans are chill.

Putin isn’t a good guy looking out for America’s best interest. Rocky IV and Miracle are great movies.

Good neighbors are a blessing.

Freedom of religion and coexistence without having to blow each other up is probably a good idea.

We all question, are we alone in the universe?

We all fuck up along the way.

Epstein didn’t hang himself.

The Trumps and Epstein were best friends for decades. It’s like Bert trying to tell us Ernie was just an acquaintance in the same social scene on Sesame Street back in the day.

The Cowboys suck. Go Birds!

Things we’re told to fight about:

Me.
Laptop.
Vaccines.
Transgenders in sports.
Pronouns.

That’s the joke.

No other peer nation allows gun violence to steal the lives of so many of their citizens.

Today, we #WearOrange on National Gun Violence Awareness Day to honor every life stolen or forever changed by gun violence. Take action with @Everytown! Find an event near you this weekend and join the voices of advocates demanding an end to gun violence: https://t.co/s5MX6ZMg6O

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

@garybobb @TheStefanSmith I did. It’s not a how to. That would be irresponsible. But I do go into my crack addiction in depth in Beautiful Things which came out a few years ago.

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

You caught them. Mom and Dad were going to sell bibles and cell phones, golden sneakers, and NFTs, Chinese watches and cologne but wouldn’t you know someone beat them to the punch. They were left with only one choice write two books like every former First Lady and President has done in modern history.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom. #MagnificaHumanitas

[Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @RepAOC]

This is what drinking water in Georgia looks like after Meta began data center construction in the community.

Today I called for EPA and Congressional investigations into the impact of data center construction on local drinking water supplies.

We cannot take water for granted.

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

Stephen Colbert has a talent for making people laugh and encouraging them to stay curious, stay engaged, and stay hopeful about the world around them.

@StephenAtHome: Thank you for your voice, your creativity, and so many memorable conversations over the years. Cheers to you.

[Nancy Pelosi @TeamPelosi]

After inciting a bloody insurrection to try and overturn the 2020 election he lost, Trump set up a slush fund to reward the violent thugs who beat up police.

This unprecedented presidential corruption MUST end — and YOU have the power to stop it with a VOTE for House Democrats.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

No nation, no society, and no international order can call itself just and humane if it measures its success solely by power or prosperity while neglecting those who live at the margins. Indeed, Christ’s love for the least and the forgotten compels us to reject every form of selfishness that leaves the poor and the vulnerable invisible.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

The decisions made by state supreme courts touch every part of our lives. And that’s especially important when voting rights and basic freedoms are being challenged.

Today, voters in Georgia can stand up for fairness and integrity by electing Miracle Rankin and Jen Jordan to Georgia’s Supreme Court.

Let’s get this one right, Georgia. Find your nearest polling station and cast your ballot before 7pm ET:  https://t.co/OHJnsHnuiB

[Democrats @TheDemocrats]

The GOP weighs in on soaring gas prices

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

This Mother’s Day, I’m thinking about my mom, and all the lessons she taught me. I'm proud to honor her memory with the Ann Dunham Water Terrace at the Obama Presidential Center.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Wishing all the moms out there a wonderful Mother’s Day!

To @MichelleObama, I’m grateful for all the ways you’ve shown up for our daughters and our family over the years. We love you.

[Elizabeth @alluringmedia]

Bush destroyed Clinton's economy.
Obama fixed Bush's mess.
Trump destroyed Obama's economy.
Biden fixed Trump’s mess and now Trump has destroyed what Biden fixed.

The biggest lie that Republicans have gotten away with is that they are better for the economy.

[Neil Stone @DrNeilStone]

just so tricky to figure out if vaccines work or not

Let's look at polio.

The data isn't clear

We may never know

[Neil Stone @DrNeilStone]

After 8 billion doses (yes 8 BILLION, not a typo) Covid vaccines are at this point one of the most tested medical interventions in history and one of the safest ever

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

Do something to lower the high cost of living that is crushing the American people.

Meanwhile.

If I said it, I meant it.

[Senator Mark Kelly @SenMarkKelly]

"No quarter" is a violation of the laws of war and puts American servicemembers at greater risk. I gave Secretary Hegseth a chance to clear up what he meant when he said "no quarter, no mercy" and he refused.

As Secretary of Defense, the things he says matter and this is just another reason why he isn't right for this job.

[Nancy Pelosi @TeamPelosi]

Trump and Republicans FAILED the American people in every way — and they know it.

That's why they're trying to keep FED UP AMERICANS from voting by rigging the elections — with a disgraceful assist yesterday from a rogue Supreme Court.

DEMOCRATS WILL TAKE BACK THE HOUSE ANYWAY!

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

Louisiana’s GOP governor just declared a STATE OF EMERGENCY to CANCEL an election.

Not for a storm — but to redraw maps so he can ERASE a historically Black district.

They’re not even hiding it. MAGA is rigging elections to silence YOU.
