MAGA will twist any perceived flaw - including righteous anger at abuse - into a crime, while re-writing history to cover up rape, abuse, murder. Disgusting. I studied the rise of Hitler, fascist and communist movements. I know the definitions in three languages.
I never use the Nazi label lightly.

My only question for Trump supporters now is why do you hate your neighbors and pretend it‘s love?

Melody Kay Young @melodykayyoung.bsky.social · 3h

So are all Trump supporters who want them to. #Traitors 🇺🇸

I admit I was thinking of the photo of those Texans, not seeking a literal translation. ;)

This country will not heal, if its leaders do not deal with the abuse, whether by repenting of it themselves or rebuking it firmly in leadership. Whenever abusers are rehabilitated at the expense of their victims, there can be no unity.

And all I ever wanted was a quiet life. 🕊️

It has been my consistent experience that MAGA persecutes Christians for following the Way of Christ.

They are brutal to their own, and dehumanize all the rest. 💔

Perverted ignorance.

Bonhoeffer shared helpful thoughts about such people.

Thank you. Having studied it in German. I’ve tried y’all, but DAMN, American evangelicals didn’t want to learn. Even got compared to the Nazis for warning about this… 🫠

Those nations may not be innocent, but Stalin was a monster.

Incredible isn’t the word I would use.

Clearly, maga is a Nazi organization.

Trump: We took the freedom of speech away.
Americans: Yeah, we know.

Trump, the anti freedom president. #Texas

Well done @govpritzker.illinois.gov - that’s a message #Texas understands.

The unifying message must be NO to “plenary power” (tyranny) and YES to unity. 🕊️ #TrumpMustGo 🇺🇸

As an aside, Tricia is a “Christian” who abuses Christians for having human reactions to abuse. #StopAbuse ⬇️

A lot going on here, but a religion note: DHS Assistant Sec. Tricia McLaughlin refers to Rev. Black as a "pastor" here — using quotation marks.

It's a notable slight against a faith leader's status, as Black is, in fact, an ordained minister of a church operating within the Presbytery of Chicago.

This footage is from almost a month ago. What this clipped video doesn’t show is that these agitators were blocking an ICE vehicle from leaving the federal facility—impeding operations.

Over and over again, law enforcement ordered these agitators to move off of federal property so the vehicle could move. Law enforcement verbally warned these agitators that they would use force if they did not move and stop impeding operations. They did not comply.

Shortly after, rioters began throwing rocks, bottles and launching fireworks at the law enforcement officers on the roof.

At the time of this incident, this facility held criminal illegal aliens including gang members, drug traffickers, and other violent criminals. Obstructing law enforcement puts officers, detainees and the public at risk. If you are obstructing law enforcement you can expect to be met with force.

And, as an aside, this is the same “pastor” who flipped
@Sec_Noem
and our team the bird when we were there last week.

Well I have taken to flipping off those yellow “Jesus Saves” signs because Christians never should have been there at the Capitol on January 6th. I’m a Christian. MAGA has been gleefully abusing plenty of Christians since their start, and they shame their victims for having human responses to abuse.
