This tweet is an apt metaphor for the American church Tbf

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops. I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Remind you of anyone?

#chronicillness is keeping me from protesting in person today. Please, if you have the health and resources, go out and show this regime that most of us care deeply about things like “innocent until proven guilty” and “health care” and “education.” Oh and “voting rights.” #me/cfs #handsoff

I know she is a Republican, but she is absolutely correct. If democrats want to fight fire with fire, it helps to know a former arsonist. I am not saying you have to invite her to thanksgiving, but we need to know that she isn’t wrong. Democrats are acting like this is business as usual.

I mean, the president is mob boss and a few of my friends are in an El Salvadoran concentration camp but hey, gotta own the libs amiright?

pro tip: very few people right now want to hear about how your conscience wouldn't let you vote for Kamala. shut the fuck up

To justify Kilmar Abrego Garcia being illegally sent to a concentration camp in El Salvador, MAGA lunatics are lying about Jan 6 terrorists not having due process. Jan 6ers seditiously stormed the US Capitol and still had trials, lawyers, appeals and a criminal pardoned them.

😂😂

The port fees will raise prices on all products, not just those from China btw. Ocean vessel traffic is complex and a huge amount of freight from around the would is transported by Chinese vessels.

Another tax hike on Americans…

When are republicans going to realize that Trump is outsourcing the jobs in his concentration camps to El Salvador… those are jobs that could be done by Americans in America that he is sending away. Demand he bring those prisoners and jobs back!

The level of cowardice is astounding…

It is hilarious to see @fetterman.senate.gov with this performative bullshit. You voted to give the Trump administration the ability to pull this shit. Go to hell and I can’t wait to vote you out in 3 1/2 years.

Don't let history repeat ✨️ itself

I’m sorry, I refuse to believe we are facing a constitutional crisis… @schumer.senate.gov assured me playing nice and waiting for polls to drop would protect democracy 😂

That banner gonna hit so hard for the #Mavs

Every day, I’m proud to serve the good people of Pennsylvania.

Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro says he hasn't heard from Trump since the arson incident at the governor's mansion.

Trump is using economic blackmail to force the UK to repeal all protections for LGBTQ people. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Fun fact: the International Criminal Court at The Hague does NOT recognize any immunity based on official title or diplomatic status.

Our system is not built for this moment…

“The old American order is dead. It ended on April 14, 2025, when a Latin American strongman sat in the Oval Office and discussed sending U.S. citizens to foreign concentration camps with the American president while they jointly defied the Supreme Court.” open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

So, how many Americans in blue cities do we think Trump has to round up and deport to El Salvador before the next election to ensure it is a landslide for Trump and the radical right? All he needs to do is say they are gang members and ignore the courts until they are out of the country.
