It is so sad that "Christian" is associated with very NON-Christian behaviors. Obviously they never ask themselves What Would Jesus Do. They are Christo-Fascists or Evangelibans.

Meiselas: One of those headlines I had to reread. We’re not allowing the president of Taiwan into the U.S.? Our ally? Trump caved to China’s demand and blocked him. MAGA screamed Dems were weak on China—then did exactly what they fear-mongered about.

Phang: We have to pump the brakes here—because for someone like Ghislaine Maxwell, who’s already gone to court, professed her innocence, and claimed she had nothing to do with it—what value could she possibly offer now? Let’s not be naive. Donald Trump quite literally holds the keys to her freedom

Thailand-Cambodia ceasefire comes into effect as opposing military chiefs to meet
Commanders from both countries to meet Tuesday morning under peace deal with cross-border committee set for next week A truce agreement between Thailand and Cambodia came into effect in the early hours of Tuesday, testing whether it will halt the worst fighting between the neighbouring countries in more than a decade. Both sides agreed an “unconditional” ceasefire would start at midnight on Monday to end battling over a smattering of ancient temples in disputed zones along their 800km (500-mile) border.

I have watched a few formerly left-leaning folks fall into a hole of propaganda over Gaza, Columbia's bribe payoff, and even Epstein and whew it is so upsetting to watch. Anyone can fall prey to propaganda, but if you are reposting administration talking points as truth, that's a HUGE warning bell.

This is some of the weakest shit I've ever seen. Why is it a scandal that he "affirmed his opposition to antisemitism—but only while also condemning Islamophobia"?
“May the light guide us to freedom, justice, and equality for all.”
That was Mamdani’s Hanukkah post in 2023. He often posts greetings for most major religious holidays—but only in his messages to Jews does he pair them with progressive political refrains. His Passover message in 2020 struck a similar note, ending with the activist slogan “until all of us are free.”

A few days earlier, he celebrated an endorsement from The Jewish Vote—a group affiliated with Jews for Racial and Economic Justice, which later described the October 7 massacre by Hamas as “neither justifiable nor unprovoked.” At the time, Mamdani used the endorsement to affirm his opposition to antisemitism—but only while also condemning Islamophobia and condoning the struggle for “collective liberation.” When he has posted about Muslim holidays or his visits to various mosques, no such equivocation appears.
