@tatereeves I'm shocked at the mockery of Christianity displayed by MAGA Republicans every day in America. They are the antithesis of the teachings of the Christ, as documented my the Apostles in Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. They ignore Acts, and the letters of Paul. 🦊, reread your Bible

@EuromaidanPress Who will fly them? Mr. President Zelenskyy, you are correct perhaps, and I am sympathetic to your cause, but have you the 128 pilots trained on the platforms and tactics of the F-16, and its systems and weapons? The training requires two years. Are they ready?

@ThomasKlineMD @CDCDirector Fortunately, my PCP understands why I am prescribed my medication regimine which includes opioids and low dose benzos. We talk about alcohol and how the three can cause interactions. I am not a heavy drinker -- never was. Now if I can get my state of CO to lift their MEDD limit

Prohibition is killing us all.

holy fucking shit, Donald Trump's tax cuts for the obscenely wealthy are responsible for a QUARTER OF OUR NATION'S ENTIRE DEBT and Republicans want to cut YOUR social security to pay for it, and that's what this debt ceiling bullshit is all about. fucking unacceptable

@JeanLucBigBoy @JoJoFromJerz @MarshaBlackburn I understand a little belly fat as we age, but how does one acquire cellulite on their face?

[Secretary Antony Blinken @SecBlinken]

We are designating Wagner Group as a Transnational Criminal Organization. In addition to their abuses in Ukraine, Wagner operatives regularly commit abuses in Africa. Countries that invite criminals to solve their security problems find themselves robbed and held hostage instead.

NEWS: @AdamSchiff makes it official:

“I’m running for U.S. Senate because we’re in the fight of our lives to preserve our democracy & build an economy that works for everyone.”

In the first interview of his campaign, he tells me @SenFeinstein gave him her “blessing” to run.

Can Herschel Walker please give Donald Trump a lesson on how to disappear after losing an election?

@RichardRubinDC @mehdirhasan Way to go @HouseGOP. What a brilliant plan you have.

Do you think of political contributions as contributions or bribes?

Even if you don’t like the fact that you are in fact willing recipients of bribes, that’s the reality.

It’s time to completely overhaul campaign funding.

It’s not a crime to accidentally take and retain govt docs. If upon learning that you have docs, you return them, there is no crime. That is not what Trump did. If he had simply returned everything this wd have been a nonstory.

we need to treat #chronicpain patients with empathy & with painkillers; this 'opioidphobia' is literally killing people
'the D.E.A. continues to target physicians who have large numbers of patients on high opioid doses'

@MadScientistFF $0.69 an hour in a plant nursery, caring for the seedlings. I was 14.

At 16, I worked in a toy store as Xmas help. $1.50 an hour, part-time. My pay checks were something like $12.00 a week, but it was 1969.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Let us do as Jesus did: let us share, let us carry each other’s burdens, let us look at each other with compassion, let us help each other. Let us ask ourselves: am I a person who divides or shares?

[Kurt WG Matthies @kwgmatthies]

@WarriorCarol That is what I would call medical negligence.
