Mankind will be judged not by what it creates but by what it allows to endure.

I know you hate this advice. I know you hear it all the time, but for gods sake you need to be calling your congressperson. Now. Today.

If you have a GOP representative, you need to call and ask if they approve of stripping congress of its constitutional authority. If they like being powerless.

When did being a decent, kind, caring, honest, truthful, loyal, empathetic, respectful human being become so offensive?

Judge temporarily blocks Trump's executive order on birthright citizenship, calling it 'blatantly unconstitutional' A federal judge in Seattle has signed a temporary restraining order blocking President Donald Trump's executive order on birthright citizenship. U.S. District Judge John Coughenour on Thursday heard ...

A federal judge — nominated to the bench by President Reagan in 1981 — has temporarily blocked Trump's executive order that purports to limit birthright citizenship.

"I can't remember another case where the question presented is as clear as it is here. This is a blatantly unconstitutional order."

When we Christians are more known for our support of presidents than we are for our support of the poor, the immigrant, the marginalized, and the oppressed, that is when we know we are following someone other than Jesus and we have a lot of repenting to do.

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 Jesus Christ.

As the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. wisely said, "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." Today and every day, I pledge to never silence my voice in the fight for what is right, and I will continue to march in the path he forged toward justice.

It Is MLK Day. Do Not Despair. This Year Especially, We Have Work To Do. With delicious anticipation, we imagined it.

I pray this helps some of you today. We have a duty to Dr. King whose life was taken because he dared demand that this country face itself, to demonstrate that his work & sacrifice was not in vain. Let’s do it together. Please share. And subscribe.
