Are we Americans?
Then let’s act like true patriots—stand up for what’s right, not just for the powerful, but for each other. Our country thrives when we fight for fairness, unity, and justice for all.
Let’s unite and rise together.

When political leaders — including Trump and those who support him — consistently promote division, cruelty, greed, and dishonesty, it raises serious questions about how their actions align with Christ’s teachings.

Just a thought, y'all have a nice day.

The Fruits of the Spirit vs. the Fruits of Power

According to Scripture, true believers must outwardly reflect the fruits of the Spirit: Love, joy, Peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22–23).

They are also called to live sacrificially — caring for the poor, welcoming the stranger, forgiving enemies, and seeking justice.

Jesus warned, “By their fruits you will know them” (Matthew 7:16).

When political leaders — including Trump and those who support him — consistently promote division, cruelty, greed, and dishonesty, it raises serious questions about how their actions align with Christ’s teachings.

I don't trust her.
She says she’s “not a slave” to Trump, guess all that weightlifting finally rushed some blood to the brain.
Political clarity through biceps? Unexpected, but hey, we’ll take lucidity however it comes.
I'm not going to mistake her moment of clarity as a permanent personal best.

Trump and Oz claim drug prices dropped 650%.
That’s mathematically impossible—a 100% cut means free.

650% means drug companies pay YOU to take meds.
Either they don’t understand math, or they think you don’t.
But hey, I’ll take the cash and the pills!

Dr. Oz just announced that the administration is bringing certain drugs down by 650%. If you bring down an item by 100% it’s free lower than that is pretty much impossible. Even if the advisors are playing with their heads, how fucking stupid do you have to be to actually repeat it.

Guardrails of Democracy @demguardrails.bsky.social · 5h

MO & OH Dems need us to help Rally support!

A commissioned poll shows nearly 1/2 of MO voters oppose the maps

The Dem committee needs over 100,000 valid signatures across multiple congressional districts before the state’s 90-day window expires on Dec. 11 to let voters decide on the maps.

Missouri Democrats have an opportunity to block a new congressional map. They say they’re largely on their own.

Despite relatively little investment from Washington, Missouri and Ohio Democrats are looking to block new Republican-drawn maps through uncertain avenues.

Support independent journalism, volunteer for voter protection, and stay engaged.

You’re not alone—millions are fighting to protect democracy.

Despair is understandable, but action is the antidote.

Feeling hopeless is valid, but it’s exactly what authoritarian power thrives on.
Billionaires may influence national politics, but local action still matters.

Your voice, your vote, and your vigilance are powerful.

The company that counts our votes, Dominion, has been purchased by a Republican. This is very very bad. They REALLY don’t want to lose the House and Senate in the midterms. Trump’s goal is to prevent Democrats from ever winning an election again. He can’t be successful if we stop him next November.

THE VOTE COUNTERS HAVE CHANGED HANDS-AND AMERICA SHOULD PAY ATTENTION

When a firm that counts votes gets sold behind closed doors, the price isn’t what matters. What’s being traded is confidence...and that’s the one currency a republic can’t print more of.

You're not responsible for fixing someone who refuses to grow. Protect your peace, set boundaries, and walk away from relationships that drain you.
You don’t have to fix someone who won’t admit they have a problem.
You deserve peace, not stress.

BREAKING: ICE agents just abducted a press camera operator in Chicago.

WGN-TV’s Debbie Brockman was dragged to the ground, cuffed and bundled into a van - which then rammed her vehicle to escape.

What the hell is happening in America?
