You can follow Christ or you can follow trump but you can't do both. They are exact opposites. Christian Nationalism is a sin. #ResistFascism

You were in high school in 2005 & yet you have the nerve to come here, pontificating to Katie Mack? 🙄
Scene from The Simpsons episode "Three Men & a Comic Book" in which Comic Book Guy looks annoyed & says (what should've been his catchphrase): "Freakin' kids!"

"If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or town & shake the dust off your feet." ~ Matt 10:14 I cut ties with all my MAGA relatives in 2016. It was hard & it still hurts but it was necessary. I can never again trust them with my disabled kids. ~ ACR 11/26/25

Some jerk actually had the nerve to say this in public. 🙄 #Antisemitism
Screenshot of twitter account @Markroberts21 replying to Governor Shapiro's post about the Pennsylvania CROWN Act (quoting 1 Samuel 16:17): "Sorry Josh but it's kind of fishy a Jew reading scripture from the Bible. It's like oil and water it doesn't mix" & my reply: "You uneducated fool. 1 Samuel is literally Jewish scripture! Antisemitism is a sin, mark."

"Now go back to Sunday School & learn all the verses about loving your neighbor!"

#FakeChristian "Johnny 'Merica [sic]" doubles down on their racism by implying the Bible condemns abortion (it does not).
Context: Governor Josh Shapiro quoted 1 Samuel 16:17 as it relates to him signing Pennsylvania's CROWN Act into law. Screenshot of some MAGA account misquoting the Bible: "What’s the scripture about God knitting us together inside our mother’s womb and counting the hairs on our head?" & me correcting them: "It's actually two separate verses, "Johnny". Jeremiah 1:5 is specifically about the prophet Jeremiah, but #FakeChristian #heretic "Evangelicals" love to prooftext it to prop up their misogynist, anti-Christ propaganda. The other (Lk 12:7) is simply about not being afraid."

"Almighty & everlasting God, whose will it is to restore all things in your well-beloved Son, the King of kings & Lord of lords: Mercifully grant that the peoples of the earth, divided & enslaved by sin, may be freed..."
Ancient Christian icon known as "Christ Pantocrator" (meaning "ruler of all"). This one is from Hagia Sophia in Istanbul. It shows Jesus as having somewhat dark (maybe olive?) skin, wavy dark hair & a dark beard. He is wearing blue & gold robes. In his left hand he's holding a book with a gold cover & bluish pages. With his right hand he is giving a blessing. There is a golden halo behind his head with a cross inside it. In the upper left hand & upper right hand corner are Greek letters which represent the name "Jesus Christ". image credit unknown

We literally had huge wins across the country less than a month ago but I guess you were too busy to notice. If you whiny malcontents actually support candidates & show up to elections, we could win red states, or at least flip some swing states.
Political cartoon showing two people: a Black person in a yellow shirt & blue pants with an "I Voted 🇺🇸" sticker on their shirt. The other is a slack-jawed white hipster wearing a blue Bernie shirt, with a word balloon asking "Where did you get that cool sticker?"

Democrats are literally the only people fighting for you but if you hate them so much, you might as well go join MAGA. I'm sure that will work out great for you. 🙄
If you think Democrats are the problem, you are the problem.

A photo of two cardinals standing on the ground. The one in front appears to be female with various shades brown, white, & red feathers. Behind her is a male cardinal with mostly red feathers and some black around his orange beak. Cardinals are often used as symbols of the Holy Spirit, especially in places where there are no doves. 📸 credit: unknown. I've had it in my phone for so long that I forgot where I stole it from. Sorry.

A recent photograph of the White House flag pole at night. The American flag is clearly shown hanging loosely from the bottom of the pole. Only the blue field & a few stars are visible. The rest of the flag is obviously being left to lay on the dirty ground, in violation of the United States Flag Code. 📸 credit unknown

Two panel meme: on the left is a kind of sepia tinted photo of an open Bible with a ribbon book mark hanging out. On the right side is white text on a black background with the collect of the day & an Episcopal shield at the bottom. "Blessed Lord, who caused all holy Scriptures to be written for our learning: Grant us so to hear them, read, mark, learn, & inwardly digest them, that we may embrace & ever hold fast the blessed hope of everlasting life which you have given us in our Savior Jesus Christ, who lives & reigns with you & the Holy Spirit, one God, forever & ever. Amen." ~ BCP, p. 236 meme credit: The Episcopal Church

Jesus said: They will arrest you & persecute you. They will put you in prisons. You will be betrayed by relatives & friends. You will be hated because of my name. But by your endurance, you will gain your souls.

~ Luke 21: 5-19 (slightly paraphrased)

You're dumb enough to think the police are going to protect you from ICE. Go yell at a Republican, genius. Democrats are literally the only ones trying to help us.
If you think Democrats are the problem you are the problem.

"Keep watch, dear Lord, with those who work, or watch, or weep this night, & give your angels charge over those who
sleep. Tend the sick, Lord Christ, give rest to the weary, bless the dying, soothe the suffering, pity the afflicted, shield the joyous, & all for your love's sake. Amen." ~ BCP, p. 124
