One of the most blatant forms of hypocrisy in our time is Christians holding all ordinary people accountable to the most rigid moral standards while simultaneously holding their preferred politicians and celebrities accountable to no standards at all.

Many #retirees no longer have a picture ID. The #SaveAct is #discrimination against older US #citizens. #AgeDiscrimination

Rough estimate for retirees (65 +):
•No valid driver’s license: ~20%–35%
•No valid passport: ~50%–60%

It just seems to get worse. Yet, in the words of the late Tammy Wynette, the #GOP keeps “standing by their man.” One can’t turn an eye from this #behavior and claim to follow #Jesus.

Someone asked me if this post is comparing ICE and “spanking.” No. ICE agents killed multiple people. This post is not about ICE agents or their victims. It’s about the Christians who cannot find the will to denounce evil when it comes via people they perceive to be authority figures.

The Second Amendment protects the right of every lawful gun owner, not just those with certain political views. No one should face a greater threat from law enforcement simply for exercising a constitutional right.

I’m running for Congress in NY-12, my home.

We have a demented, criminal president running the country like a mob operation—government by the boss, for the boss.

We need Democratic fighters who will defend the rule of law and deliver government by the people. Join us.

Family members of two Trinidadian men killed in a U.S. military boat strike have SUED the Trump administration, accusing it of wrongful death and extrajudicial killings.

Their families say they were fishermen and farm workers simply returning home.

Lethal force, lies, and blocked independent investigations aren’t public safety. They’re the signs of a government turning on its own people.

Americans are grieving the turn this country has taken.

DHS is justifying murderers, but we’ve all seen the videos. 

It’s lawlessness and must be stopped. I support impeaching Kristi Noem and disbanding ICE.
