The election of Bishop Flores would have sent a strong message that, unfortunately, the current US hierarchy is incapable of delivering.

He’s an Integralist who wants to destroy almost every institution in America and rebuild them in line with his reactionary Catholic viewpoint.

My wife and I pay for life insurance even though we have never died. I pay for fire insurance even though my house has never burned down. That's not because we want to throw money at insurance companies. It's because THAT'S HOW INSURANCE WORKS.

In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work."

The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting.

And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.

Pope Francis’ favorite movie was β€œBabette’s Feast,” which is an opinion I share.

The man who called out war dead "suckers and losers" is indeed pure trash, and the fact that pretends to support the military is the most disgraceful thing ever.

Did you know: Congressmen and women have been paid twice (they’re paid monthly) since the govt shut down. $30,000 gross each. Meanwhile Trump trying to stop food stamp payments while he has parties. And @SpeakerJohnson still has everyone on vacay

Without reading the article, I am going to go out on a limb and guess that none of the three states are below the Mason Dixon Line.

Seriously? He has no idea how insurance works or how to govern. I’ll never get over 77 million people thinking a man this incompetent belongs anywhere near the Oval Office.

Fantastically bad idea for consumers. On a 30 year mortgage, people are almost to the halfway point before they’re paying more in principal than interest. A 50 year mortgage would benefit the banks exponentially more.

I mean what could the mayor-elect have to do that’s more important than meeting with a reality show hack?
