Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.

The WOKE MOB has gone TOO FAR

And any clergy person of any tradition who tries to coerce queer people into staying closeted or changing their sexuality has spiritual—and sometimes physical—blood on their hands. God will judge these whited sepulchres more harshly than He will judge any of us!

The enormous hypocrisy of “celibates” who live double lives and preach against the LGBT community is a vicious reality, and I hope that someday, they can begin to repair for what they’ve done by being honest with themselves and the world about who they are.

I do think that, if you are closeted, coming out is generally the better option. Unless you are in a situation where your or others’ safety will be at risk, it’s much freer (if sometimes harder) to live with this type of honesty. I would especially urge all clergy to come out.

I came out to myself as a teenager, then a few friends and close family sporadically for several years. But I didn’t decide to go public until 2020, when I was 25. Part of me regrets waiting as long as I did, but part of me understands that there is no “wrong” time to come out.

Susan Collins is the chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee, which means she has considerable power to influence the administration but she prefers to mumble weak protestations to the media

Despite all of Susan Collins’s **concerns**, Russ Vought, who she voted to confirm, still went ahead and fired a boatload of hard-working Americans.

Can you think of a single movie in which there is a video from the government denouncing its political opponents playing on a loop in public spaces in which that government was the good guy?

Federal agents aren’t trying to keep the peace. They want violence to escalate so that Trump can declare martial law.

They shot a reverend in the head with pepper balls while he was praying in front of an ICE facility. If that doesn’t tell you where we are as a country, nothing will.

650 people in Brewer, Maine — ready to set off a political earthquake.

As Maine goes, so goes the nation. And that’s exactly why the politicians in Washington, D.C. are so scared.

Susan Collins's stance is indefensible.

A quarter million dollars in dark money behind her is indefensible.

Reopen the government, reverse the healthcare cuts, ban billionaires buying elections.

More history from this Nazi adulated by the Trump team. These are explicit, proud Nazis who scream and cry and call every referee they can find when you quote their Nazism back to them.

Multiple tweets from Nazi Jack Posobiec in 2016 making "jokes" involving the Nazi code "1488."
