Assuming she thinks she got her information from the Christian Bible, heaven has no wall, heaven has no gate, all of heaven's residents are immigrants who have received grace. Unbelievable that people sell and buy this nonsense.

All of these can be true at the same time: 1) The suspension reversal was corrupt 2) No FIFA rules were violated (Art 27) 3) Art 27 is ridiculous 4) This is not nearly FIFA's most corrupt action 5) FIFA's history of corruption doesn't justify this corruption 6) The red card by VAR was BS

Trump is what happens when a bunch of slave owners set up a government to protect their wealth by establishing elite rule through the Senate, Electoral College, and no one fixing it for 250 years

(THREAD) Let me reframe this. Blue states FUND red states as red states say that it is BLUE STATES that live off others. Blue states adhere to the CONSTITUTION as red states CLAIM to love it but undermine it at every turn. Red states adore the CONFEDERACY but lecture the rest of us on patriotism.

But will they vote for Democrats or just disengage. You have shown the way for people who reject their former path by actively working toward a solution. The people I know who are disenchanted with Trump still will not vote for a Democrat, because we are apparently evil and un-American. Sigh.

Now have them give up their free universal health care for life until we get universal health care. Accd to Spotlight PA, the median net worth of a US Senator is $4.4M, excluding primary residences, personal property, pensions, and vehicles. So, just like us.

Important to note that the Congress in the most powerful country in the world has chosen to completely ignore a deepening global economic and political crisis flowing from Trump's failed war. No hearings, no legislation, no studies about mitigating the damage, rebuilding afterwards. Just this 👇

Please encourage him in this endeavor. My family once stood beside an adult stranger on July 4th who named (i.e., made up) every firework going off overhead, e.g., "Ah, and there is the difficult to execute pink bristling pom on its way to a summer dance." My (now adult) kids still talk about it.

Three companies allowed to bid, hand-selected by this administration. Thiel's Palantir, ASI (who report as a $0.3 billion company...that would be $300 million to the rest of us), and Thales, a French company. Corruption in plain sight.

Thank you and @holzman-tweed.bsky.social for educating me in this area. As noted, my sole knowledge is from the New Testament. I will do a deeper dive on the Pharisees so I don't make this mistake again. Also, I was unaware that the term is used antisemitically. Again, thanks for the corrections.

"You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means." Besides the point that a religious reference is inappropriate, Hegseth, not surprisingly, has this wrong. The Pharisees were the bad guys because they were "rules for thee but not for me" types without grace or charity.

I think the reason AI propagandists are so flustered by the fact that no real writer wants to use their idiotic tools is that they themselves don't enjoy writing. They see it as a boring arduous chore to be avoided, while real writers actually enjoy writing and actually care about the quality of it.
