Retired Episcopal clergy. Left of center. We’ve been created equal - let’s behave like it and level the playing field. So tired of, and disgusted by, the Republicans in DC. On a happier note, I am a diehard Bills’ fan.

From the Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church, calling out the administration on the public execution. So proud to be a member of the clergy in this denomination.

Tip: when this administration uses the word “unexpected” to describe the number of job gains, you should immediately view it as suspect. They hope you won’t be paying attention when the revision comes out.

A jail term isn’t a good enough punishment for 47. When his term is over, he should be stripped of his access to money, immediately deported to one of the countries he has inelegantly branded as sh*thole, and cut off from civilization.

This. Heads-up, Dems who cling to the past and fear change. It’s time.

Coming up with the name “Epic Fury” was a no-brainer. It describes the growing mood of the American people in response to this administration.

2/2 Constitutional rights in the case of an ICE encounter are the right to remain silent and to refuse a vehicle search without cause or a warrant. Ms. Good was in compliance. She was afraid and attempted to drive away. Shooting her in the face at almost point-blank range was unwarranted.

ICE may conduct vehicle stops, but their power is limited by constitutional protections. To do so, there must be reasonable suspicion the driver is undocumented. ICE’s mission is to enforce federal immigration and customs laws. 1/2

I apparently missed the announcement that the US motto has been changed from “In God we trust” to “Let them eat cake.”

And another school shooting. 47 likely sees this as his opening to send troops, which is not what is needed. The feckless clowns in Congress must grow a set and enact stringent gun laws that protect the innocent, limit the types of guns available, and punish those who break the law.

I did not vote for 47, nor do I endorse the insanity into which we have been pulled. He needs to go, along with the other members of the clown show. What in God’s name does he think he is doing?

Just watched Surviving Ohio State. Not sure whether I need to vomit, cry, scream, or take a shower; it makes you feel absolutely dirty and positively disgusted. My sadness for the athletes who were abused knows no depth. Jim Jordan and others from OSU, should be in prison.

47’s need to play tough guy (as he impulsively tips his hand to the world), is beyond frightening. His minions (who all have big d**k wet dreams) can’t wait for this to blow up. The problem is - as always - there is no real plan, and consequences have not been considered. Lord, have mercy.

@stephaniemiller.bsky.social It’s all about the narrative. Folks wanted to hear what was in it for them, not about our responsibility to the whole and greater good. Republicans embraced the former, and Dems the latter. This is why we didn’t win: we’ve lost our ability to care.

Erdogan and MBS applaud 47’s lifting of sanctions on Syria; that in and of itself tells me it is not a good idea. Waiting for Orban to provide his ringing endorsement. And nothing like offending the Iranians with the comment about changing the Persian Gulf to the Arabian Gulf; what a statesman.

Disingenuous moment of the week: watching folks on the news gleefully announcing the slashing of tariffs with China, as if this was a revolutionary development. 4 months ago, there were no tariffs; 47 created them. He’s hoping you don’t remember that part. Not a savior; he’s a con man.

So 47 has declared war on Amazon because Bezos let consumers know the cost of tariffs on their goods. Calling it a “hostile act” because he can’t admit the tariffs are a disaster, is rather funny. Keep up the good work, 47. Your legacy grows more deranged every day, and I am here for it.

If it is true that Bessent’s Key Square assets increased every year but 2017-2021 when they declined or broke even, and then made major gains through 2023, isn’t it nuts to go work for the one who was President in the lean years?

hi, no thanks @hmmvryintrstng.bsky.social · 02/04/2025
james surowiecki has discovered where the completely fabricated trump tariff rate has come from for each country "...for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us."
Just figured out where these fake tariff rates come from. They didn't actually calculate tariff rates + non-tariff barriers, as they say they did. Instead, for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us.

So we have a $17.9 billion trade deficit with Indonesia. Its exports to us are $28 billion. $17.9/$28 = 64%, which Trump claims is the tariff rate Indonesia charges us. What extraordinary nonsense this is.

“The only way to make the tariff go away is for Canada to become the 51st state.” This, from the leader of the (for now) free world. Sounds more like a Mafia don.

“He can come back when he is ready for peace.” Bullying and crass behavior does not engender or nurture peace. 47 needs to learn the art of statesmanship. Vance does, too. Otherwise, this isn’t peace; it’s simply emotional terrorism.

? for those who identify as Christian: Do you embrace and live out the teachings of Jesus, or do you believe weekly pew sitting grants you the distinction? I know folks who don’t attend church and yet are so much more Christ-like than many folks in the pews. It’s time for the Gospel revolution.

I refuse to let an emotional terrorist dictate my life. 47 is a little man who makes big claims, threats, and has apparent dirt on folks they are too frightened to call him on. He is emboldened by bullying behavior and stooges willing to do his bidding. ENOUGH. We need to stand up to him NOW.

For the love of all that is sacred and holy, stop with the pounding of Bp. Budde. Her sermon was not political, it was grounded in the Gospel; Jesus would be saying the exact words the Bishop spoke. Perhaps it is time for a bit of Bible study.

An EO went into place defining binary as the only acceptable choices for gender, but we have a handful of nominees for important positions (including 47) who have serious addiction and sexual misconduct issues, and reports of treasonous behavior that are seemingly okay. SMH.

Oh, the irony. President Carter was a disappointment to the Evangelicals, but 45 their hero. Jesus weeps.
