What if there were a coup, the US government fell to a drug-addled oligarch who seized control of our money, secrets, and levers of power, and Corporate media did not report on it?

Rev. Benjamin Cremer states: If your Christianity causes you to be offended by someone asking the most powerful person in the country to be merciful towards the powerless, then you have profoundly misunderstood the teachings of Christ.
I think the entire MAGA movement has profoundly misunderstood the teachings of Christ. But, I'm an athiest, so what do I know.

Right Reverend Mariann Edgar Budde makes one final plea of mercy to Trump
Todayβs hero is Rev Mariann Edgar Budde.
Speaking truth to power is hard and costly.
Speaking truth to the most powerful man in the world with such grace, strength and compassion is an example to us all.
