Today, thedadbriefs (IG) gives us a #CupOfJoe with a side of facts.
When we talk about American values, let’s remember those values were built by hands of every status, including the undocumented. Because they are not our problem. They are our promise.
Spread the love and acceptance #pridemonth

Hang in there Colbert, there will be other venues that will gobble you up so you can continue to speak truth to power. You are a gem Mr Colbert, CBS does not deserve you!! Shine on!’
CBS canceled Colbert’s show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery.
America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons.
Watch and share his message.
As a Democrat who voted Kamala, I didn’t just vote for a Democrat.
I voted for your healthcare, your hospitals, your Medicaid, your nursing homes, your SNAP, your disaster response and your Rx costs.
With a Trump vote, you voted for billionaire tax breaks & the loss of all of these resources.

Please RE-POST this! Thank you
"We are devastated and heartbroken at the loss of our parents, Melissa and Mark. They were the bright lights at the center of our lives, and we can't believe they are gone. Their love for us was boundless. We miss them so much. "We want everyone to know that we are both safe and with loved ones. We are grateful for the outpouring of love and support we have received, and we appreciate your respect for our family's privacy as we grieve. "Our family would like to thank law enforcement for their swift action that saved others and for the coordination across communities that led to the arrest of the man who murdered our parents. We especially would like to thank the officers who were first on the scene to our parents' home and their heroic attempts to rescue our mom and dad. "Our parents touched so many lives, and they leave behind an incredible legacy of dedication to their community that will live on in us, their friends, their colleagues and co-workers, and every single person who knew and loved them. "If you would like to honor the memory of Mark and Melissa, please consider the following: • Plant a tree. • Visit a local park and make use of their amenities, especially a bike trail. • Pet a dog. A golden retriever is ideal, but any will do. • Tell your loved ones a cheesy dad joke and laugh about it. • Bake something — bread for Mark or a cake for Melissa, and share it with someone. • Try a new hobby and enjoy learning something. • Stand up for what you believe in, especially if that thing is justice and peace. "Hope and resilience are the enemy of fear. Our parents lived their lives with immense dedication to their fellow humans. This tragedy must become a moment for us to come together. Hold your loved ones a little closer. Love your neighbors. Treat each other with kindness and respect. The best way to honor our parents' memory is to do something, whether big or small, to make our community just a little better for someone else."
Please read and share this statement from Sophie and Colin Hortman, children of Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark.

Across the country, our coalition members are holding candlelight vigils to honor the victims and their families. We’ll end the night with drinks, but right now, prayers come first. If you want to join us, put a candle out on your front porch.

Maybe we need US Senators who aren’t actually rooting for you to die.
The reality that masked men without proper identification are confronting and arresting and taking away people should be intolerable to anyone who calls themselves American.
"The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little."
-FDR, 1937
Remember how they gaslit us with the so-called Obama death panels? Now they're real, and they're the GOP's death panels.
At the first sign of trouble at protests, SIT DOWN‼️

DEMOCRATS! Throwing Joe Biden under the bus won’t help you.
•It won’t win over the base.
•It won’t boost your approval.
•It won’t bring back voters who sat out 2024.
•It won’t fix 2026.
It makes you look petty while Trump is burning it all down. REPAIR AND BUILD THE PARTY!
If you’re born in America, you’re an American.
Pass it on.
Buttigieg: I’m not even an elected official or running for anything— I’m here. I can’t help but notice a lot of people who are elected officials aren’t. There’s a reason for that. They don’t want to have to explain this stuff
This is a political time to wake up EVERYDAY prepared to Speak Truth to Power!
FUN FACT APPROVED✅️
Remember when we really were winning?
