Texas Republicans just passed a bill forcing every teacher to post the Ten Commandments in their classroom.

They passed it on the Sabbath… breaking the 4th Commandment.

Maybe they should try following the Ten Commandments before mandating them.

Greg Abbott is pushing the “FURRIES Act” claiming schools are giving litter boxes to students who act like cats.

But when I asked the bill author, he couldn’t name one school providing litter boxes to kids.

This is all part of Abbott’s smear campaign against our public schools.

Christians who demonize “empathy” end up not only repudiating Christlikeness but also cutting off the very means to confront sin:

Greg Abbott claims his private school voucher scam is wildly popular.

But when I offered an amendment to put vouchers on the ballot, the Governor threatened and bullied lawmakers into opposing it.

Greg Abbott is telling on himself — he knows Texans don’t want his voucher scam.

Please read this, by my colleague @nickkristof.bsky.social. Children are dying because of aid cuts.

It's just cruel. And it's not even for the sake of fiscal responsibility. The GOP is proposing a tax/spending plan that will add trillions to our debt. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
Opinion | Musk Said No One Has Died Since Aid Was Cut. That Isn’t True.
A journey through the front lines of global poverty shows that when the world’s richest men slash aid for the world’s poorest children, the result is sickness, starvation and death.

You can't use the parks budget to redo your backyard.

You can't use the highway budget to repave your driveway.

You can't use the police budget to hire a personal security guard.

And rich people can't use our public school budget to pay for private school.

Say no to vouchers.

Did you know USAID actually DOES put America first? It's never been about American generosity or Christian charity - it's about power, wealth & self-interest. Cutting it might sound good in a MAGA speech, but it could backfire hard on America. @skyejethani.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_zl...

Trump is gutting Christian ministries that serve the poor . . . while MAGA Christians cheer.

And if you object to the human suffering they cause, then they accuse you of displaying "toxic empathy."

MAGA morality: Put thousands of federal employees on leave, cut aid that sustains countless lives, demonize your opponents, and then enjoy the suffering of your enemies.

But then - when one DOGE worker is fired for vicious racism -say, "Where's the grace and mercy in this country?"
