As universities shutter DEI offices, progressive Christian groups open their doors (RNS) — Several of these groups are connected with ZOE, an emerging network of progressive Christian student ministries.

After Kennesaw State University in Georgia shuttered its LGBTQ+ Resource Center, a nearby church offered up its Sunday School classroom, which now serves as home base for the school’s student-led pride alliance.

Er verkaufte nicht nur Macht und Freiheit zu Transgression, u.a. „die KÖRPER von Frauen“ - er bot junge Mädchen und junge Frauen an. Es kauften dies: Männer, die weder Freiheit noch Gleichheit ertragen können und deshalb Dominanz brauchen.
Die Illusion, dass dies Freiheit ist, vermarktete Epstein.

If you still support Trump and his administration, I don’t judge you for your choice of political party.

I judge you for your lack of morals, ethics, compassion & humanity.

I judge you for your support of pedophilia, racism, treason & fascism.

So will others. So will history.

They did not “tolerate” Trump. They chose him as the chosen one. The connection is far far deeper. Christians made Trump President. Twice. They wanted him.

By the way, for those of you not in MN: Homan’s strategy was to withdraw some agents, so it felt like we were in the denouement of the crisis, and then escalate hard against observers. They’re being incredibly aggressive with observers now. National media may not want to check out just yet

Trump's big, ugly budget megabill gives ICE more agents than the FBI, more jails than the federal Bureau of Prisons, and a larger budget than most countries' militaries.

Not one more penny for ICE.

Demand:
End the terror in the streets.
We want our neighbors here, in our cities and in our country, not in detention concentration camps or on deportation planes.
All ICE off our streets.
Impeach K. Noem and investigate Homan’s bribe.
Likewise: murderers and assaulters within ICE and CBP.

‘The smart, the rich, the powerful’: Epstein associated with Silicon Valley elite years after his release from prison Billionaires and intellectuals attended events with the disgraced financier years after he served time for sex offense, files reveal

“as late as 2018, Epstein was invited to or attended dinners alongside the likes of Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin, Twitter co-founder Evan Williams, Microsoft founder Bill Gates, and Google vice-president and later Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer.”

What a surprise.

Again, I know everyone wants to yell at The Democrats & Chuck Schumer & Hakeem Jefferies, but there are 10-25 people in Washington who could literally end all of this tomorrow, & none of them are Democrats, & they continue to get 24/7 free passes for being absolute oath-violating cowards. Focus.

Na klar. Keinen Zentimeter weichen für die Schwestern: kein Frauendiakonat und keine Frauenordination. Erst recht nicht Entscheidungsgewalt & faire Mitbestimmung für Laien. Dagegen: größte Toleranz für diese Brüder. Bis wir alle weg sind und nur noch die rechten Brüder (read as you like) übrig sind.

Illinois is joining the World Health Organization's Global Outbreak Alert and Response Network.

I refuse to sit by as Donald Trump undermines science and weakens our nation's ability to detect and respond to global health threats.

Russian terror bombing of Ukraine continues. Ukraine's allies donate generators but not long range missiles to strike Russia's capacity to terrorize. Western media ignore the humanitarian disaster altogether.

Predicting that this week we’ll hear more conciliatory words from the Administration regarding Minnesota (since they’re starting to realize that ICE has become politically toxic) but everyone outside of Minnesota needs to know that nothing on the ground has changed.

Politico …. Not. It’s Springer Press (German-owned).
Nice try.
Thanks for catching that for everyone to see how it is normalized immediately.

Please take measles seriously. The Trump Regime's secret police are accelerating measles outbreaks as they kidnap and transport human beings around to play jurisdiction games with the courts.

This is just sick. His family knows. Voters didn’t listen & we are paying the price now. Miller maybe the worst of them all. But they all fall in line. They love their power because they have nothing else to show for. They are weak. And they know it.
I’m from Germany. I know exactly what he means.

Leading American companies — including Palantir, Deloitte, and private prison giant GEO Group — raked in over $22B from ICE and CBP contracts last year.

Do not forget who is profiting from cruelty and human suffering.
