"What need have I of all your sacrifices?" says the Lord...
Bring no more vain offerings. Incense is offensive to Me...
Learn to do good. Seek justice. Aid the oppressed. Uphold the rights of the orphan. Plead for the widow."
Isaiah 1.11 to 17
Bring no more vain offerings. Incense is offensive to Me...
Learn to do good. Seek justice. Aid the oppressed. Uphold the rights of the orphan. Plead for the widow."
Isaiah 1.11 to 17
From this minister's op-ed: "People wanting to experience God are more likely to meet the Divine trying to shut down the Broadview, Illinois, ICE facility than we ever were in church...God does not live in our houses of worship, but...with those who are bearing the brunt of cruelty in this moment."

So they finally decided to just completely get rid of science.
“The prohibited activities would include joint research, co-authorship on papers, and advising a foreign graduate student or postdoctoral fellow. The language is retroactive, meaning any interactions during the previous 5 years could make a scientist ineligible for future federal funding.”

Hey! Former Starbucks worker here (still have scars from 2nd degree burns), please don't cross this picket line. Starbucks is a chronic union-buster. There are so many wonderful local coffee shops to support instead. Make your support for Union Starbucks stores known until *& then after* a strike! 🖤
BREAKING: After months of stonewalling by Starbucks, unionized baristas just voted 92% to authorize a ULP strike unless Starbucks finalizes fair contracts & stops union busting.
If forced, our baristas will strike in dozens of cities on November 13 – the company's busiest sales day of the year.

It didn't matter.
Let his victory in the face of Big Money serve as a reminder that people have the power.
