and hey Pope, she claims to be a member of your flock

what will it take to excommunicate her?

The two National Guardsmen, Captain Dylan Blahna and Staff Sgt. Demi Palcock, said they want no part of deploying to Chicago to help deport immigrants. "This is not what we signed up for...Look at 1930s, 1940s Germany.

I wrote @Spotify seeking an explanation, and their answer was “we don’t have any information to share.” Then I don’t have my business to share. I took my 50+ playlists and went to Tidal. Easy to use and completely happy with my decision.

“Deploying our military to watch over and intimidate our citizens is wrong and presents a clear and present danger to the First Amendment rights and freedoms we cherish. It must stop.”

I helped lead the National Guard. Troops don’t belong in our cities.
We must not permit this gross misuse of the military to be normalized.

He orders extrajudicial killings. He sent troops into our cities. He terrorizes citizens with ICE raids. He raised taxes without congressional approval. He has ruined American farmers and ranchers. He plans to starve the vulnerable. He demolished our house.

Remove him from office.

Just watched a great commercial during the Game 7 ALCS from the Government of Ontario Canada using President Reagan’s own words to take down MAGAt’s unnecessary and stupid tariff wars. Brilliant! I’ll post a link in the thread to the YouTube video. Go Leafs! #OhCanada

As a veteran with multiple combat tours, this “No Kings” poster touched my heart more than any of the other hundreds of great signs I saw this weekend

Love this lady so much for honoring her veteran and the cause he died for
