People aren’t broke because they’re “splurging” on iPhones and lattes, people are broke because corporations have bought up housing, control our healthcare, and are gouging at the register.

WATCH — Gov. @andybeshearky.bsky.social @andybeshearpodcast.bsky.social : “These mass firings are making us less safe… there’s nothing wrong with wanting to fix the federal government, but what we’re seeing now is an attempt to break it. And that’s in my Kentucky accent.”

Give this man an award.

America is not a Christian nation. America is a nation where the rich and powerful have reduced Christianity to just another tool to exploit for their own interests at the expense of the very people Jesus called us to serve: the poor, the hungry, the sick, the stranger, and the oppressed.
