And he ends up at Golf courses every weekend anyways, so security isn't phenomenal half the time anyways. This isn't giving enough reasons to spend that much money on something not needed.

He wasn't accused, he was held civilly liable so it proved he did it in a civil court, just not in a criminal court. But I get your point and 💯.

Do Republicans understand that if we get rid of immigration, taxes have to go up just to sustain infrastructure?

This is the thing about bathroom bans targeting trans people - assault is already a crime! Indecent exposure is already a crime! And laws that protect trans people don't suddenly make them legal

Weeks after Trump pardoned Binance’s founder, the company dismantled a probe and suspended the investigators. Binance denied that the inquiry ended or that staff were fired for the concerns.

How many times has Trump violated both the Hatch Act and the Logan Act? Last time he was in office, we saw soldiers wearing buttons with his face on their uniforms. Which is also against regulations. None of that seems to matter to MAGAts; even though they’d scream if Obama or Biden had done it.

STATEMENT FROM MATT MOBERG, CHAPLAIN OF THE
MINNESOTA TIMBERWOLVES

IF YOU'RE A CHURCH POSTING
PRAYERS FOR PEACE AND UNITY TODAY
WHILE MY CITY BLEEDS IN THE STREET.
MISS ME WITH THAT SOFTNESS
YOU ONLY WEAR
WHEN IT COSTS YOU NOTHING.

DON'T DRESS AVOIDANCE UP AS HOLINESS.

DON'T CALL SILENCE "PEACEMAKING."

DON'T LIGHT A CANDLE AND THINK IT SUBSTITUTES FOR SHOWING UP.

TONIGHT AN ICE AGENT TOOK A PHOTO OF ME NEXT TO MY CAR,
LOOKED ME IN THE EYE AND TOLD ME,
"WE'LL BE SEEING YOU SOON."

NOT METAPHOR.
NOT HYPERBOLE.
A THREAT DRESSED UP IN A BADGE AND A PAYCHECK.

PEACE ISN'T WHAT YOU ASK FOR WHEN THE BOOT IS ALREADY ON SOMEONE'S NECK.
PEACE IS WHAT THE POWERFUL ASK FOR WHEN THEY DON'T WANT TO BE INTERRUPTED.

UNITY ISN'T NEUTRAL.
UNITY THAT REFUSES TO NAME VIOLENCE
IS JUST LOYALTY TO THE ONES HOLDING THE WEAPONS.

STOP USING SCRIPTURE LIKE CHLOROFORM.
STOP CALLING YOUR FEAR "WISDOM."
STOP PRETENDING JESUS WAS CRUCIFIED BECAUSE HE PREACHED GOOD VIBES AND PERSONAL GROWTH.

YOU DON'T GET TO QUOTE SCRIPTURE
LIKE A LULLABY,
WHILE INJUSTICE STAYS WIDE AWAKE.

YOU DON'T GET TO ASK GOD TO
"HEAL THE LAND"
IF YOU WON'T EVEN LOOK AT THE WOUND.

THERE IS A KIND OF PEACE THAT ONLY EXISTS
BECAUSE IT REFUSES TO TELL THE TRUTH.

THAT PEACE IS A LIE. AND LIES DON'T GROW ANYTHING WORTH SAVING.

THE SCRIPTURES YOU LOVE WEREN'T WRITTEN TO KEEP THINGS CALM.
THEY WERE WRITTEN TO SET THINGS RIGHT.
AND SOMETIMES THE MOST FAITHFUL THING YOU CAN DO IS STOP PRAYING AROUND THE PAIN AND START STANDING INSIDE IT.

IF THAT MAKES YOU UNCOMFORTABLE-GOOD.

GROWTH ALWAYS IS.

Morning Bluesky. A draft Executive Order seen by the NYT suggests the US is about to abandon Africa, which would be a big win for Russia and China. The drastic overhaul of the State Department would eliminate almost all African operations and close embassies and consulates.

If the US had continued to support Ukraine, we may have been months away from the end of the war. The Russians would not have been able to continue to fight for much longer. They were making almost no progress, taking huge casualties.

"It is important to understand that there is no—none, *zero*—practical reason to imprison an American citizen abroad....The only reason America would need to use foreign prisons would be to get around the American legal system." And Trump has expressed interest in doing just that.
