Forget Johnson and “tradition.” A judge can legally swear her in! It’s been done before. Why isn’t this being done now?

How to tell evil from good according to the Bible.

“By their fruits ye shall know them.”

What are the fruits of ICE and those in power now?

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

Pagels boils it down for us perfectly.

The idea that everyone has intrinsic rights to life and liberty was a radical break with millennia of human history. It’s the moral foundation of America, Elaine Pagels writes—and it’s worth preserving.

We’re seeing the destructive forces of HATE & GREED. All their lies & corruption to hold power.

When Dems retake control, they must eliminate govt by the wealthy, restore public services, rights and freedoms for all Americans.

Make “by the PEOPLE for the PEOPLE” their every priority.

“The Death of Public Health”

Jonas Salk saved millions with a polio vaccine. He gave it away to help humanity. Today, venal and yes, evil billionaires—Koch to Musk to Peter Thiel—are fully behind destroying American society for profit. They want you poor, sick, and desperate. We must stop them.

The Death of Public Health

Another Friday night massacre, but this time it's not just an essential federal public health agency that will die

Oh, I understand their rationale, but, unlike Singapore, our (and NATO’s) relationship with Qatar has been on shaky ground, including over 9/11. They are an authoritarian monarchy - governed by the absolute whims of their super wealthy emir. This act threatens our security.

Wow! That’s awesome. He’s another example that shows that when your message is on point, timely and delivered with passion and purpose, you’ll have lasting impacts even beyond your years.

Now you’re moving the goalpost and it sounds like you’re defending this. I think it’s dangerously abhorrent. I think we’re done here.

When you have money greedy idiots in charge, where EVERYTHING is up for sale, sooner or later, foreign governments figure out how to leverage the idiots - to our peril.

Here we are. If this isn’t the redline for MAGA, I don’t know if there ever will be one.
