Only people afraid of what the American people think of you would want to restrict voting. Only people who know they are violating the Constitution would close polling places. Only the weak are afraid of open democracy. Like rats scuttling away from the light.

Trump has a worse criminal record than the people he’s abducting and deporting.

One of the most beautiful books I had never read until now is "Death Comes for the Archbishop" by Willa Cather. Her descriptions of 1800s New Mexico & her respect for all the groups inhabiting that landscape is wonderful. Also cool that my copy is from a used bookstore & literally 100 yrs. old!

ICE killed a Colombian man. He was legally authorized to work. His wife and 3-year-old daughter were in the car when ICE fired at least 5 times. He was not their target. Agents wore no body cameras. This is fascism. Prepare: PAXIS.app Keep it free: GoFundMe.com/PAXIS

Why do so many people think Donald Trump is the example of a real man? I see so many men daily, working, caring for others, sacrificing for family, that are so much more true manly men than any of the Trump family. They are a joke: sucking off of other people but never really manning up. For shame.

I so wish there would be an outcome like on the film "The Verdict": that one of the Epstein victims would come forward to show a written copy of what she told the FBI back in the day & had it notarized at the time to prove its validity. But they were young & not realizing what would come. I wish...

Trump seems to have a deep seated fear of dying and being forgotten, and he knows death is coming in the near future. This talk of heaven is a sure tell. What an empty husk of a man: most would long to be remembered by people who loved them.

Obama deported more people than Trump is right now, but without all the cruelty, terror, & violence. Obama quietly followed the law and focused on immigrants with criminal records. Trump doesn’t give a damn who’s being deported, and he’s focused only on the public spectacle, the fear, & the cruelty.

It’s just not safe to be Jewish today. It’s not safe to be a Jew anywhere in this world. There is way too much antisemitism in the world today. On the right and on the left. It’s fucking wrong and it must fucking stop. We must stand with & defend our Jewish brothers & sisters.

Trump must be the most gullible mark in the world; the easiest to hoodwink. All our intel told him that Russia meddled in the 2016 election but Putin said "nyet" so Trump believed him. All our intel said MBS ordered Khashoggi's murder but MBS said "nope" & Trump believed him.

Joni Ernst’s lifelong legacy for women serving in the military from her time in the Senate is Pete Hegseth. Every woman denied promotion, denied a job specialty, sexually harassed, or forced out for bs reasons, owes it all to Ernst and the Republican Party.

The whitewashing of the many, many instances of Charlie Kirk's hateful speech about others reminds me of what many did post Civil War in whitewashing the reasons: "it was just about states' rights". Good Christian people justified slavery & lynching. But shoot, they went to church every Sunday. So..

Bishop Robert Barron has failed the Church spectacularly. In praising Kirk as an example of "civil discourse" he ignores the effect of Kirk's words denigrating, demeaning, dismissing Black people because he loved Jesus & promoted Christianity. In this Barron is not acting as a good shepherd. Murder
