NEW: #PopeFrancis on inter-religious dialogue:
“Every religion is a way to arrive at God. There are different languages to arrive at God but God is God for all.
But my God is more important than your god, is that true?
There is only 1 God & each of has a language to arrive at God. Sikh, Muslim, Hindu, Christian, they are different paths.”
In accordance with our annual tradition, happy #Pride to all the impeccably-dressed music ministers out there whose Spotify is equal parts Sam Smith and Sandi Patti.
I’m sorry you “just haven’t found the right woman yet.” Don’t give up. I’m sure (s)he’s out there!
They are saying it now out loud! From this weekend's CPAC meetings: "...welcome to the end of democracy. We are here to overthrow it completely. We didn’t get all the way there on January 6, but we will endeavor to get rid of it.” https://t.co/sH6Mkohv9r
How is it that our country refuses to adapt to the technology that is available in other countries? I had no idea this was even a reality. Imagine who wonderful this would be to have on our roads!

BREAKING: Deeply disturbing news breaks as it's revealed that numerous New Hampshire voters have received fake voice messages pretending to be President Joe Biden telling them not to vote.
This is the terrifying future of technology in politics...
The voters in question received messages engineered to sound like Biden — likely through a very accomplished imitation or perhaps even AI voice generation.
The Biden impersonator told voters to "save their vote" for the general election in November.
"Voting this Tuesday only enables the Republicans in their quest to elect Donald Trump again," the message said. "Your vote makes a difference in November, not this Tuesday."
Biden, of course, is not on the Republican primary ballot although some people do intend to write his name in.
There are numerous possible explanations for these insidious calls. It could be an effort to suppress the votes of those who might vote for Nikki Haley to oppose Trump.
More frighteningly, these calls could be an attempt to test the waters for a larger scale, more damaging misinformation campaign during the general election.
We need a full federal investigation immediately. This reeks of MAGA meddling...
Please retweet and ❤️ if you support a fully funded investigation into these calls — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a new pro-democracy social network that is exploding in popularity because Twitter and Facebook are trying to stop its growth — which is only making Tribel grow even faster.
