In MAGA West Virginia, a Catholic Bishop Takes on Trump’s Immigration Crackdown Pope Leo's bishop in West Virginia says ICE agents must defy unjust orders, invoking the Nazi-era defense rejected at Nuremberg.

A Catholic bishop in deep-red West Virginia torched Trump’s immigration policy.

He calls it a “wholesale assault” and, citing the Nuremberg Nazi trials, says ICE agents must disobey immoral orders.

Except for the EPA.

They want to un-ban chemicals actually already proven to be harmful to human health.

How exactly is California already gerrymandered, Mr. Kapur?

Why are you agreeing with this assertion?

You wrote "Decolonize the territories don't make them states."

So you are telling them not to be states. That is telling them what to do.

And also very paternalistic to say if they had the information you had, they would feel the same.

It's not hard to just say they can decide for themselves.

Again, you won't answer the question:

Why do you get to tell the Virgin Islands what to do? That independence must be forced on them, regardless if they prefer status quo, free association, statehood or whatever else they might prefer.

OK, but you still haven't responded about why it seems you feel you can speak for the Virgin Islands and demand independence for them.

That's no different than people in the mainland US demanding statehood for PR.

Let the territories decide for themselves what status they want.

Correct.

People oversimplify the political environment in PR and try to make it fit in the mainland US outlook but they are usually wrong in doing so.

I never said statehood. I even wrote that earlier in the thread about all the territories.

I just asked how you know the Virgin islands want independence?

Maybe they prefer the status quo.

That's for them to decide, not you or me.

How do you know St. Thomas, St. Croix and St. John want independence?

Let them decide. Not you.

New Jersey and Rhode Island are very Catholic, too.

It’s not clear which, if any, of the territories want to be states.

They should determine their statuses, not be victims of this era.

Every reputable expert I know considers mRNA vaccine technology to be one of the most revolutionary advances in medicine in our lifetimes. Its inventors won the Nobel Prize in 2023. Shutting it down now is pointless self-harm to humanity.

TX is already gerrymandered.

This would be a double gerrymander.

It’s not a cut, Senator.

These funds have already been awarded and are out of the door.

The money is in their bank account.

The EPA is trying to illegally take this money back.

Bernie ran on this and lost the primary.

An even better day for him to resign.

2029 is an eternity from now.

No one can predict what things will be like then.

Thank you for your research and uncovering this error.

More excellent work from you!

Just like we’ve enjoyed all these years. Kudos!

Ok, good.

He and McNally should get the WCs.

Nava made the quarters in Acapulco and third round in Toronto at a Masters 1000.

He should be in first place over Challenger results.

Did she explain why she blocked people like me who had the audacity to note that Post employees had free will & didn’t have to support Bezos’ authoritarian support? Some months ago she kept spamming her followers w/ posts about how great the Post journalists are/was & people should keep subscribing.

💯.

Eliminated that era forever?

I sure hope not.

also people deciding that liberalism was so baked in and baseline they could run off into the flower meadows of Communism or anarchism and their civil rights and basic humanity would be fine being left undefended from Skinhead Steve and the work was just debating problematic fandoms

I think really the story of the past ten years was people taking for granted 21st century liberalism was locked in and therefore you could just kinda be fashy for a laugh only to realize a moment too late Skinhead Steve wasn’t joking after all.

Cowards

Pathetic

We will need a Third Reconstruction.
