Well, this is the foundation of the MAGA movement. Without political pastorsโ€™ help, there is never a President Trump.

Ohio town rallies around man who faces deportation to Laos after 40 years in the U.S. His family says his case shows how good people who contribute to society are getting swept up even as the Trump administration says it is targeting โ€œthe worst of the worstโ€ in immigration enforcement.

โ€œMy community is definitely fighting,โ€ she said, โ€œcalling the governorโ€™s office, calling state representatives, calling so many people just to figure out why is this happening to good people...โ€

Trump โ€œspent hoursโ€ at Epsteinโ€™s house and โ€œof course knew about the girls.โ€
He lied to the country, and Republicans helped him bury the truth.
Now that Democrats have the 218 signatures to force a vote, there are ZERO excuses left.
Release. The. Epstein. Files. Now.

The fact that Megyn Kelly minimized raping 15 year olds and wasn't immediately canceled from every platform, including @siriusxmprog.bsky.social and YouTube, tells you EVERYTHING that is wrong with right wing media and this country in general.

Easy to believe this guy ignored someone who passed out in the Oval Office. He did ignore a guest at a Mar-a-Lago event who fell off the stage and split his head open and complained about the blood staining his marble floor. The lack of empathy is on-brand.

Several states (including California, Michigan, Oregon, and Wisconsin) have announced that theyโ€™ve begun processing full food stamp payments. Thank you to those states for stepping up to support families in need!

As a Christian I can tell you thereโ€™s nothing moral about taking from the poor to give to the rich. The "Big Beautiful Bill" goes against everything weโ€™re supposed to stand for.
