Since World War II, America has been far and away the world’s most dominant power.
In just 7 weeks of Trump, we’ve seen him do things that directly undermine that and give away American dominance to authoritarian nations.

Pfizer’s cancer drug commercial was beautiful, but their breast cancer drug Ibrance costs $10k per month and their prostate cancer drug Xtandi costs $22k per month.
Beautiful commercials don’t change the fact that 42% of cancer patients exhaust their life savings in 2 years.

While Target and others cancel diversity to appease Trump, Costco’s investing in the community—building apartments above its stores, starting in LA.
This $425M project includes 184 low-income units, with key services, plus a rooftop pool and fitness center.

Only 82% of kindergartners in this county have been vaccinated against measles, and now they have 9 confirmed cases and 3 probable. The anti-vaccination efforts of the Trump administration will exacerbate the spread of vaccine-preventable disease.

Next week, Virginia's Gov and lawmakers will play their annual charity 🏀 game to raise money for VCU's Cancer Center.
They'll have to raise a whole lot more now. NIH grants to VCU last year? Almost $100M.

Love one another. Serve one another. Protect the most vulnerable above everything. Repeat.
As mainline pastors across the country yesterday preached on Luke 4, many saw insightful parallels between reactions to Jesus's inaugural sermon & criticism of Bishop Budde's sermon at an inauguration service. Here's a taste of what pastors were saying: publicwitness.wordandway.org/p/sermons-ab...
Sermons About That Sermon
“A preacher gets up, quotes Scripture, and reminds the gathered congregation that God loves the outcast — those in fear for their lives — the poor, prisoners, the disabled, and the oppressed.

I'm deploying 1,000 more California National Guard service members to Los Angeles as we battle the unprecedented wildfires in the region.
The approximately 2,500 total service members mobilized will continue assisting local public safety efforts in communities devastated by the fires.
