I am a liberal pastor with 30+ years of ordained ministry. I was taught by my father to be compassionate and by my mother to see good in others. I love to read and write and cook. BTW, I feel that being called "woke" is a compliment.

Where were posts like this when over 300,000 Black women were unceremoniously fired from their Federal jobs?

Black women, the 92%, did NOT vote for this administration.

Once you see it, you canโ€™t unsee it.

President Jimmy Carter would have been 101 today.

He had a life of service, and faithful works.

When someone says one should be remembered as a servant of Christ, I look to his example within my lifetime.

Love and compassion, versus hate and vitriol.

If you're having a rough day, just remember you've never worn a stupid red hat, or worn a maxipad as an ear warmer.

One more thing about the WNBA, which is that I know, from experience, that when the only thing keeping your organization standing is the folks in charge demanding loyalty and silence, baby, you are COOKED. Itโ€™s the end of the road when youโ€™re a leader spending all your time trying to shut people up.

Folks, I'm not saying the guy claiming to have proof of Mike Johnson's Grinder account is a grifter, and I'm not saying he's not. I have no idea. I don't know him. He could absolutely be telling the truth. But please don't give him money for "legal defense" until he actually needs it. Free advice.

Correction. He had his Daddy's friend do it. He was too cheap to do it himself.

Unfortunately, she is the wrong race and sex for many to care, never mind that she is a writer and too many people don't read anymore. Sadly, a white man on tv will always garner more attention than a black woman writing for a newspaper.

The wounded knee thing is really Trumpism distilled to its essence. Itโ€™s not enough to be able crush people who canโ€™t fully defend themselves, itโ€™s not enough to actually crush them, you also have to love and admire those who do the crushing otherwise the Trumpistsโ€™ delicate feelings are injured

To Jim Comey:
You were made for this moment. Tyrants often lose power because they surround themselves with incompetent loyalists and ๏ฟผrely on their bad advice to overreach๏ฟผ. ๏ฟผThat moment has come to America. Justice is on your side. Win this case to defend the rule of law.
