mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 5hIMHO no “authority” or another person for that matter can “dictate” what a person believes. They may dictate behavior, but nobody can know the mind of another person. The Koran and Christian Bible are not holy scripture: they are merely tools for controlling others. 120
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 07/10/2026It’s a nice sentiment, but I find it very hard to respect evangelicals who preach tribal racism. 210
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I had a school friend who was a Baptist minister’s son. His favorite saying was northern Baptist said “there ain’t no hell “; southern Baptist said “the hell there ain’t”. A lot of flexibility in the rules, but helped me move toward agnosticism. 000
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 26/09/2026The old saying is more true than ever: there’s a fool born every minute. 110
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 21/09/2026He’d have to go back a lot further than that. trump cheated his ass off at every level. 000

mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 10/09/2026Republicans in the House and Senate are demonstrating every day they tolerate this kind of behavior that they are no longer qualified to represent our democratic values. They should impeach trump, so the healing process can begin. The longer they fail to act, the worse it will become. 000

mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 21/08/2026Bring America together? Duffy must be auditioning for a standup comedy gig after government service. 010
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 18/08/2026Disregarding Johnson’s many, many flaws, I hope he’s prophetic in this regard. 010
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 18/08/2026IMO trump’s transactional mindset is naturally superficial, so he only thinks about what the ROK didn’t do for him recently, i.e. contribute to his war with Iran. Payback, baby! His BS about nKorea is his fevered brain justifying his actions to screw a longtime ally. 010
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 10/08/2026He is so full of 💩; nothing short of an alternate reality like his daddy trump. 050

mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 05/08/2026trump dishonors everything he comes in contact with. his contempt for our/my military is…there are no words. I’ve been part of the military community my whole life (almost 80 years), and I cannot think of another person living or dead who has done more to harm. 000
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 20/07/2026Autually, the entire US government is not treasonous; only the officials appointed by trump. Most civil servants are proud to be in government performing valuable services for the public good. 010
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 19/07/2026Religion is not about morality. It’s about tribalism and control. 090
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Normal human beings do not live in trump’s world. Even abnormal MAGAts know (on some level) trump is bat shit crazy. 020
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 13/07/2026I can tell the clown in the picture is not trump, because the clown’s ankles aren’t swollen. Probably an AI fake, but a pretty good one. 👏 010
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 12/07/2026State officials should continue to tell the FEDs to FO. Republicans will cheat, so the anti-trump vote in november needs to be overwhelming. 000
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 12/07/2026Everything trump touches turns to s***. Only he can f*** it up. 000
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 10/07/2026Mark Kelly is one of the few people in public life I have respect for. I hope he continues to be a public voice of reason and common sense for many years to come. 000
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 06/07/2026These three “facts“ do not define or suggest a rigged system. I don’t advocate laying off workers for unjustified reasons, but businesses make decisions like this every day. Your credibility suffers when you stretch logic too far. Keep up the good fight, but more rigor please. 110
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 04/07/2026Does that mean the remaining 11% are pedophile lovers who support trump? Or maybe they’re named in the files yet to be released. 010
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 03/07/2026miller is a mini-trump. Every word he utters is a lie. 020
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 02/07/2026Civic responsibility used to be more widespread. I remember going on vacation with my family in the 50s, and we didn’t lock the doors because the neighbors kept an eye on things. Now it’s security systems, surveilance camers and we don’t know most neighbors at all. Fear and greed moves people now. 100
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 01/07/2026Mitch McConnel has done enough harm for ten life times. He should resign and do something good for a change. They say learning new things in old age is good for you no matter how hard. 091
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 30/06/2026True, but it remains a tragedy that the decision wasn’t unanimous. At least, John Robert’s got this one right when he remarked “new world but same constitution”. It’s a shame his name will forever be associated with the most corrupt court in America’s history. 000
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 30/06/2026The next president whether democratic or republican should cancel every trump era executive order and direct removal of every use of his name in government. trump is like the confederate flag: an odious stain on the American soul. 000
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 28/06/2026Have you ever read a book that was so good you couldn’t wait and read the last few pages before reading the rest of the book? Great feeling, even though knowing the end before reading the story is an anticlimax of sorts. 😬 110
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 28/06/2026They should be hounded for the rest of their lives or rot in prison. 020
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 28/06/2026I wonder if the Texas schools are going to include that in their new public schools reading list. 🤔 041
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 27/06/2026Reason: because trump exists to promote lies. His very existence is built on lies. People who voted for trump want to believe his bullsh*t, because he promises to punish —- (fill in blank with anyone who is different). Hate fuels a lot of American politics today. Maybe it always did. 000
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 26/06/2026Christian nationalists want to write (rewrite) history as they wish it were rather than how it was. Bible stories in public schools as Texas has proposed is another attempt to brainwash the young so they are unable to think for themselves. 061
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 26/06/2026If the courts don’t block it, they will be brought down when trump is driven from office. 000
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 26/06/2026trump’s opinion and $5 might buy you a cheap drink at the local bodega. Sorry, make that $10 - inflation sucks. 000
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 26/06/2026Of course trump lied about the numbers. He always has. Almost nothing he says is believable. 030
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 24/06/2026The only thing trump worships is himself. There’s no room left for anything or anybody. 000
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 21/06/2026Correlation is not proof of causality, but in this case it probably is. 😉 010
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 20/06/2026If trump doesn’t die first, I hope his day of judgement hits him like a ton of bricks and the rest of his family is labeled appropriately. There’s no way in any rational world a president can accept a gift/bribe and keep it (legally). 010
mhp47.bsky.social @mhp47.bsky.social · 19/06/2026So eloquent and so very presidential. He makes MAGA Christians proud to be Americans. The rest of us want to believe this crap will begin to get better after November. Vote for equality. Vote for decency. Vote for everything trump isn’t. 010
