Recovering Former Evangelical

LA: “They took a US citizen father out and left a toddler in the backseat. Two heavily armed border patrol agents got in that car and drove the child and the vehicle away.”

What are we doing?

"Let me be clear: The president has both the funding and the authority to fund SNAP during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.”

Gov. Andy Beshear

This really hasn’t gotten enough attention this week.

The president of the United States thinks asylum-seekers come from mental asylums.

He says it in almost every interview where the topic of migration comes up.

How is this not 25th Amendment territory? How is he not an embarrassment to this entire country?

So CBS settled Trump’s lawsuit where he frivolously sued because they edited Kamala Harris’s interview so it would fit into their air time.

Then CBS does a 73 minute interview of Trump where they made big edits from the version that was broadcast.

They aired 28 of 73 minutes.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 91st day out of the last 103.

12 days of work in 103 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

One thing I've learned from the Internet is that a lie needs 0% proof to be believed, but the truth requires thousands of pages of proof and still won't be believed.

79. American citizen.

Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens.

Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

ProPublica and Other News Organizations Fight to Unseal Texas AG Ken Paxton’s Divorce Records A group of eight state and national media organizations are arguing that the records are of public interest, especially in light of Paxton’s bid for a U.S. Senate seat.

Angela Paxton filed for divorce from Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in July, accusing her husband of adultery.

The records were placed under seal, but a group of 8 news organizations are arguing in court that the records are of public interest.

We are fast becoming a banana republic, with two standards of justice. If you oppose the leader, you go to jail just for speech. If you're a loyalist, you get immunity for your crimes.

That's what happens in Iran - not the United States. This is a decision moment for America.

Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game.

The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.

Following yesterday, the threat level today is intense. While the media is focused on the shooting and threats of violence today, just a reminder that prior news is still important.

DON'T FORGET OR MOVE ON FROM EPSTEIN!!!

This 100%.

The right is leveraging a murder to blame Dems.

Jesse Watters is convincing Fox viewers the killer was a liberal. Based on what? The chyron says “assassin still on the loose” as he speaks.

Trump dropped a video too, blaming the left with zero evidence.

The goal is violence. And it’s coordinated.

Let’s not forget, “Your body, my choice”

The irony.

FYI... @stoopidfunnyjokes.bsky.social @jokestersonly.bsky.social

“They’re taking our jobs” was always a lie. Alabama proved it.

Alabama tried a “tough” immigration law, and it backfired hard. Immigrants fled, crops rotted, and farms collapsed. Americans tried to step in but couldn’t last a day.

They’re not taking your jobs; they’re doing the jobs you won’t do.

Fire erupts from a window of a large government building, with smoke billowing and firefighters responding with a ladder in the foreground.

A bar chart showing Russia's increasing number of missile and drone attacks on Ukraine from June to September, peaking at 818 attacks.

Russia has intensified attacks on Ukraine over the weekend, targeting civilians in its latest round of its ongoing terror campaign. The orc horde, also targeted Ukraine's Cabinet of Ministers building. Pregnant women and months old babies among the victims. #StandWithUkraine

It pisses me off that gay people are hated mostly because of some poorly translated ancient outdated book full of other bullshit idiots base their entire lives on. Religion is a curse, man.

A Dem lawmaker and her husband were killed by a guy for their political views and it’s already out of the news.

It’s a good thing Congress isn’t alive to see this

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

“A deranged maniac impersonated a police officer and killed lawmakers but if you’re an immigrant be sure you immediately comply with plain clothes people who won’t identify themselves telling you to get in a van”, what a fuckin country

Boston's "No Kings" event coincided with Pride so the organizations joined forces for a . . .
"No Kings but Yaaas Queen" event and tbh, I want a copy if this poster.
