It was never about Christianity with Republicans.
It has always been about white supremacy.

FYI
Landlords in #Pittsburgh can’t reject applicants because of a lack of rental history or because of a history of being homeless or in transitional housing, according to an ordinance recently passed by City Council.

www.post-gazette.com/local/city/2...

‘Housing status’ is set to become a protected class in Pittsburgh. Here’s why and what it’s meant in other cities.

The new rules won't force landlords to accept any applicant or change their screening criteria — owners can still ask about an applicant’s housing history and run income, credit and background checks ...

The fact that #Google sets reminders for #ColumbusDay Murderers without even having the decency to mention #IndigenousPeoplesDay is just another example of how USA whitewashes history.
I even had to remind my local Library to change their signs.

Enjoy your day tomorrow ✊🏽

Trump’s Addiction to Watching #FoxNews Is Killing American Democracy
Our country is falling apart because one old man, Trump advisers and former administration officials say, won’t stop ‘yelling’ at his TV. 🍟🥤

Anyway, vent over.
Have a good night.

Oh, one more thing.
The Allegheny courthouse is wasted on criminals and should be the Pittsburgh Plaza.
That building is fucking amazing. 🤩

So if you think you know, you really have no idea what my journey has been like from Nyc real estate to purchasing 2 churches on top of hills, for adaptive reuses after being caught in the Jersey hurricane, realizing that no one is safe in #USA with the in-action in regards to #climatecrisis 🔥

Stained glass windows stolen from 100-year-old North Side church

Saint Luke's in Perry South is no longer used as a place of worship. The new owner was intending to renovate it into a unique event space.

Look, I can’t imagine being black in this country or Latino for that matter. And I am no one’s victim.
But in this city in particular, it actually works in reverse.

This is another example, but I have tons of these.
Every time something happens where someone gets shot and killed like a 14 year-old boy block from my house or somebody shot dead right outside my church or my neighbors dog attacking my dog they ignore me & appease the actors and leave ..

It takes me to send a letter to the #Pennsylvania #AttorneyGeneral to get a follow up from the #mckeesportPolice who have conveniently ignored & laughed at #DeathThreats #Bullying #Harassment to get a response as seen below.
9 years of their abandonment.
No thanks! #Lawsuit @summerlee.bsky.social

🩸One of the other problems is is the drug syndicate in the #MonValley #AlleghenyCounty which obviously incorporates many officials.
A city like #mckeesport has some of the worst problems with #DrugAddiction & do nothing to correct it.
And the #police here, instigate violence and turn a blind eye.

You see if you keep a city, depressed and violent and continue to have some of the worst crime rates that are never solved in USA then it gives you an excuse to keep asking for handouts & never have to come up with a vision of how to save the city & continue padding your back pockets.
Funny that. 🫤

What kind of activist would I be if I didn’t report on home city & the corruption that has gone on here for 50+ years.
Post exit #USSteel #SenatorJimBrewster #MayorCherepko & incestuous city officials have pillaged city which is why local viaduct has been closed for nearly 4 years @governor.pa.gov

Never has been.

Ok enough for this pedo, fascist BS for a bit.

Now, remember I have a couple of #churches that need new #roofs & #investors so that I can flip them into woke, liberal, socialist , ANTIFA, BLM, LGBTQ, No Kings, DEI, CRT event spaces with a roof deck & spiral staircases for Drag shows 🏳️‍🌈

I probably think about this every other day and imagine what it could’ve been like with an intelligent woman as our president & how different our lives would be.
I haven’t slept deep since Jan.
Sadly, I don’t think it’s going to make any difference because 🇺🇸 has been indoctrinated to dislike woman

Vance could not give a straight answer to questions about:

➡️ Trump's accusations that J.B. Pritzker is a criminal

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.
