"Pope Leo said Scripture emphasizes the question that will be posed at the end of the world:

'How did you receive the foreigner, did you receive him and welcome him, or not? I think there is a deep reflection that needs to be made about what is happening'..."

The Feds deceived them by conducting a green card interview, subsequently arresting his wife, and mocking them while taking selfies.

I do think it's really funny that the pope is making news around the world for simply restating the basics of Catholicism, especially considering the vice president claims to be Catholic and all of them claim to be Christians.

Way more.
There are more of us than there are of them.
Self deprecation, not self defecation. OK, the President aside.
I have voted Democratic my entire life. The leadership of this party are weak knee things the President brags about grabbing. I’m fucking sick of their centrist ideology. The working people of this country need to start some punch mouth politics and tell the party to go to hell if they don’t follow.
Free electricity?!! Hack, spit. Why that is COMMUNISM. That is NOT the way we do it here in the United States. We siphon natural gas with the resulting methane leaks, burn it, add to global warming, pay multinational oil and gas companies hundreds of billions AND give them huge tax breaks to boot.

"Let me be clear: The president has both the funding and the authority to fund SNAP during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.”

Allow me to reintroduce myself. I’m Fred Wellman and I’m running for Congress to win next. Join us and let’s take back Missouri.
Here we are in another Republican government shutdown and my Rep is home doing photo ops instead of in D.C. trying to help working Americans. I didn't think I'd have to run to the trumpets again but I am. I'm running for Congress because I'm not done yet and neither are we. youtu.be/OSOAPMl_BSc?...

That sandwich was loaded: with delicious ingredients.

The utter stupidity of pursuing a criminal trial against someone for throwing a sandwich that bounced off a bullet proof vest pissing away hundreds of thousands of dollars for this joke is the perfect encapsulation of this Administration.
Let me guess. Trump will complain that the destruction was poorly done. He will then make them sue for payment. He will then offer to settle for 60% of the original bill.

Good evening Lindy. Oh yes, and I have said that often. When the ship starts to go down, you will hear excuses from every GOP person in congress - and it won't work.
Reason number 1,237,845 that lawyers have such stellar reputations. “I will clog the courts with my client’s frivolous law suits for billable hours.”

This is the kind of investigation James Comer was made for…
