The fact that people still ask “what are you protesting?” indicates the magnitude of our problem.

Did you miss the memo about judgement?

I’ll pray for you.

Why? Do you stand ready to judge me? That’s not how my God works.

As a Catholic who serves consistently, you are wrong. I don’t think Trump would recognize Jesus if he tripped over him. He certainly doesn’t understand “love your neighbor as if he was Jesus himself.”

Maybe, just maybe we should have elected a lady or a gay guy.

I am lucky enough to know only 2 direct family members with these diseases. Both were catastrophically and financially devastating. Think it’s going to get better if we cut funding? How many family members do you want your children dealing with?

Awful. She came her for a ribbon cutting ceremony for building a new bridge. She then voted down funding for said bridge.

Funny how there have been no ‘immigrant roundups’ at any meatpacking plants in Iowa. Instead, trump targets universities. He can’t tolerate free thought.

Wouldn’t you think the VP might have brought that up?

If I had a quarter for “I just wish Pete could be the adult in the room” I could properly fund the Department of Education.

Read on Friday that over 100 Hispanic students have unenrolled in Tulsa Public Schools since Jan 1, 2025.
