What if Christian spirituality is proven efficacious, while at the same time proving that organized religion is invalid?

Chris Murphy on possible military strikes on Venezuela: "It's pretty clear it's just an effort to distract people from the rising prices and the Epstein scandal. No one wants a war with Venezuela ... and by the way, it's wildly illegal."

I stand with unionized Starbucks workers, who are on strike across the country right now for better wages and working conditions.

Until Starbucks strikes a fair bargain with its workers and ceases its union-busting behavior, I'll continue to boycott the company.

The real number of the Beast was not 666. If you have a good Bible with footnotes, you will see that the number 616 was also well founded, historically.

XIC in Greek uncials.

Can you see it? That is the abbreviation for "Christ Jesus." Revelation calls Jesus the Antichrist!

One third of the country supported the January 6 2021 attempted take over the government & are the same ones who voted him back in. They are traitors in my book.

I am thankful for the Constitution and for the advances in civil rights in the courts. I am especially thankful for the SCOTUS 1954 ruling on Brown v. Board of Education. I am thankful for the rulings mandating integration and bussing.

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

A teenage girl just alleged she had sex with Matt Gaetz while living in a homeless shelter because she was saving up money to pay for braces to fix her teeth.

She had just finished her junior year of high school.

On Dec. 8, 2015, Jeffrey Epstein offers a NY Times reporter photos of Donald Trump and "girls in bikinis in my kitchen." Epstein tells the reporter that he "gave" Trump his "20 year old girlfriend...after two years."

When people looked into these type of rumors the Times smugly criticized them.

Why science?

Without science, every opinion is possible, so the most profitable opinion wins. Even if the profitable opinion kills people.

Blanche didn’t ask Maxwell a single question about any of these emails. Then he moved her to Club Fed where she is served individual meals and has a puppy and numerous other special privileges while she prepares her clemency petition. WHY?

If **Jeffrey Epstein** thinks you're a evil and demented sociopath, the odds are overwhelming that you are, in fact, an evil and demented sociopath.

Something that’s so striking in these emails is how…unimpressive Epstein is. He comes off as a pompous, sub-literate lech. Yes everyone is so mortifyingly solicitous of him! All fawning and flattery! Why?????

I’m not even going to ask you to make it make sense. They literally moved the one person that could spill the beans on him to a prison country club and gave her a puppy.

Since 2020, I have been fighting for mail-in voting and the GOP has been fighting against it. A critical court case is now going before the U.S. Supreme Court. I can assure you that I will be there fighting hard to ensure every lawful ballot counts.
