Before yesterday's crash, President Trump:

- Fired the heads of the TSA and the Coast Guard
- Pushed out the head of the FAA β€” leaving no one in charge
- Gutted a key aviation safety group
- Pushed air traffic controllers to quit as he purges the government

He's putting Americans in danger.

Christianity Today Editor: Evangelicals Call Jesus β€œLiberal” and β€œWeak” A former evangelical leader is sounding the alarm about the direction his religion is headed in.

The editor in chief of Christianity Today is warning that evangelical Christianity is moving too far to the right, to the point that even Jesus’s teachings are considered β€œweak” now.

Wow. Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde fearlessly calls out Trump and Vance to their faces. This is heroic.

Now Is the Time for Courage From Marc | I started Democracy Docket to be fearlessly independent and unapologetically pro-democracy.

Martin Luther King Jr. said that β€œthe ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge.” We are in a time of challenge.

The question for every leader, every citizen is where do you stand?

Now more than ever, let us honor Dr. King not with words, but with actions. Let us dismantle every system that causes harm and challenge anyone who would use their power to hold up a status quo that refuses the right for us all to live with health, happiness and dignity. Onwards together!!

Apparently Donald watches @meidastouch.bsky.social
So they invited me to speak directly to the grifter president.
I didn't mince words.

It’s amazing to me that politicians don’t commit to post first on @bsky.app and to engage with constituents here

THIS is more powerful than CNN , MSNBC, The Post will ever be.

You can broadcast for 9 mins on a declining medium, or engage here and start a real discussion.

Which is more powerful?

Our Wins Of The Week To most of us, in light of the election result and the impending swearing-in of Donald Trump to his second term in office, it would appear Trump got away with everything.

More strong Biden economic news? Check. More legal losses for Trump? Check. This Week in Wins rounds it all upβ€”catch up here πŸ‘‡
