The President says our children only need one or two pencils, while he’s building a golden ballroom while destroying the Peoples House. Perfectly demonstrates where we are right now.

We are dealing with such corruption in every aspect of our government, I don't know how we undo the damage.

Instead of handing us back our tax money in the form of a health care savings account or other useless ideas from the GOP, why not give us DCHL gold-tier insurance like THEY have? Look it up, we’re being played.

This is exactly what churches should be doing, calling out injustice.
📌 Lake Street Church Nativity: a bold social justice statement with ICE-like Roman soldiers, the Virgin Mary in a gas mask, baby Jesus zip-tied, Joseph on the ground, pushing viewers to think about immigration.

Murder of others is how it begins.
I can't stop thinking about the purported drug smugglers being murdered by the US military. The punishment for drug offenses isn't the death penalty. This is just bloodlust and men in suits playing with lives they don't care about. It's truly grotesque and gravely compromises this country.

Current US Policy:
If you’re suspected of trafficking a small amount of drugs with no evidence, we will murder you, but if you’re convicted of trafficking an enormous amount of drugs with copious evidence, we will pardon you. Because we are currently a very stupid country.

So much of American “christianity” focuses on the Hebrew Scriptures, some of the Apostle Paul’s letters and Revelation. They cut out the Gospels and the Jesus parts. Sort of like the folks who created the Slave Bible. It seems to have very little to do with Christ and should be called something else

Someone said don’t call MAGAs “Christian Nationalists,,” but call them Nationalist Christians, or “Nat-Cs” for short.
And now I can’t unsee it.

ALL immigrants have rights. All Americans should know that.
It’s written into American law.
For your family and friends that are unaware, educate them.

Should we begin using the term ‘unrepentant convicted felon’ when referring to the head of the Republican Party? There are many felons that did their time, turned things around and became model citizens. Some were wrongly charged.
Doesn’t seem right to lump them together with this traitor.

America is stabbing Ukraine in the back. Disgraceful. We owe them help because we gave our word and it’s the right thing to do. We will not be trusted on the world stage for many years, if ever. I’m ashamed of our country and the leaders who have allowed this to happen.

If Congress has so much control over healthcare, I propose that until they can help the common citizen secure affordable healthcare-they should go without their taxpayer-funded insurance. Why should they have secure insurance while able to take ours away?

Of course Mr “art of the deal”
would never agree to a deal where he had no input. He has no concept of real negotiations.
Yet he expects Ukraine….

Hmmm…what USAID wasn’t bad for America…what if getting rid of it only hurt us and everyone else?
What if the richest man in the world being responsible for ending aid to the poorest people in the world will go down as one of the most bizarre and disgusting acts of the 21st century?

“Hang them George Washington would”.
He would not.
Instead of killing people in boats, sending troops to invade American cities, entertaining our enemies, etc, etc Donald Trump should tune in to “The American Revolution” on PBS to learn about our first President. A REAL President.
