The Bible also says, "When you pray, do not be like the hypocrites... to be seen by others." (Matthew 6:5) Church & state must remain separate. Real unity comes from upholding our secular Constitution—not performative prayer.

Truly in awe of the right's ability to whip people up into a frenzy over completely fake news. Every 'fraudulent' spending story low IQ dipshits are spinning as a doge win is exposed as bullshit within an hour. Truly the most vile and pathetic people on earth.

I am really frustrated that the press is discussing the destruction of USAID as something that has happened rather than an illegal action that will likely be undone in two weeks when courts tell the world that it was illegal.

If your Senator is participating in this action, give them some love. Let them know you appreciate them escalating this fight. And then tomorrow ask them what comes next.

The richest robber baron in the world illegally seized the treasury. WHY IS THIS NOT A BIGGER STORY! If it happened in a US enemy state we would call it a coup.

Homan went on CNN to complain that ICE’s attempts to arrest Chicagoans has been hampered by the people’s knowledge of policy—largely because of the city’s “Know Your Rights” campaign. Fascists rely on your compliance. On your ignorance. They depend upon your fear. Disappoint them.

This is what kills me. The absolute nihilism of Republicans. You can lie about climate change all you want — it won’t stop a bunch of people from losing their homes. You lie about vaccines — it won’t stop kids from dying of measles and polio.

Most Americans unite during tragedies like the LA #wildfires. Yet unprincipled politicians are spreading baseless blame. Before buying into their divisive lies, ask yourself: How credible are their sources? Let’s think critically and be our best selves. #TruthBrigade truthbrigade.indivisible.org/s/

Another rejects pardon. When he mentioned his husband I was angry in Queer. Then when he mentioned he's a recovering alcoholic who wasn't recovering at that time, I went 'Ohhhh'. It's a good read. And for the repentant, this is how you atone. You speak up and out.
