We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾♀️.
Dictators are created due to cruelty, cowardice, & compliance! IF THEIR ASSES will ignore the Supreme Court, we can definitely IGNORE HIM!

The elevation of Pope Leo XIV is a profound and historic occasion. Like so many around the world, I am praying for him and wishing him and the Church well as his papacy begins.

So let me get this straight, we finally get an American pope, and some of the America first crowd is mad because he cares about the poor and immigrants. Am i missing something here?

sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.

I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

WaPo just came out with this:
Biden pushes back angrily at special counsel report on classified documents that questioned his memory, mental acuity
President Biden lashed out angrily Thursday night after a special counsel found he carelessly handled classified materials at his home and seemed to be a forgetful, elderly man, even though the prosecutor also concluded the evidence was not strong enough to justify charging him with crimes.
Good. He did the right thing.
Did you see it? Not sure his performance helped or hurt his cause. But in his defense, he’s been a gaffe machine his whole public life.
Have you ever watched a Trump performance?
Oh yeah. Drives me nuts. You?
He's one of these people common in sales (and politics) who will never miss an opportunity to say in a 1000 words what they can easily say in 100. I guess it worked for him in commercial development, but its not for me. (I spent my career running an tech sales org)
Watch his pressers. Usually all the dumb shit is in the 2nd half after he's ad libbed too long. Still Biden's on a different level of hubris, faux "hail fell well met" B.S., and incoherence. But he always has been, so you cant chalk it up completely to senility.
That's an interesting example of how differently different people will interpret something. I am far less bothered by Trump's wordiness, but note that his tendency to toss out sentence fragments, often not even terribly closely topically related, is more annoying than his gaffs. He produces gaffs at a rate far beyond Biden, but the context makes them stand out less. I don't find Biden to be at fault for hubris and in fact feel like he errs too often on the side of modesty and almost British und…
One difference is Trump will fill the void with another ad lib, while Biden will just blank out. You and I obviously disagree on who has more cogent thoughts, and who is more genuine when they speak. I’m good with that. I’m generally a 51-49 voter anyway, and have been for many years.
The thing perhaps we can and should agree on is the office occupied by either of these people has grown far too powerful in the last several decades for anyone’s good. I don’t subscribe to the “Great Man” theory, a…
The political duopoly has been shaped by dark money. Citizens United has been the US hemlock.
Funny how they thought the threat would come from those evil corporations, and yet it comes from billionaires, foreign and domestic.
AND those fucking contributions from those corporations.
question (and if I offend anybody, I'm sorry) but in what ways are you getting off on being a troll here?
are you one of those guys who's gotta gin himself up by making other people angry?
a grievous fault. and grievously hast thou used it.
Sorry if I am not a member of your bubble. All apologizes. Maybe if you’d deal with my comments and not your feelings about my comments. Start with the one above about Biden’s news conference. You telling me you cheered and didn’t cringe? You’ve never heard any of his gaffes through the years? “Come on, man”!
I hope the only "bubble" that exists here is we all follow the late Senator Moynihan's advice that "you are entitled to your own opinion, but not your own facts." Taking in diverse opinions is the only way to eventually get close to the truth of the matter.
Quick reminder that feminists didn’t fight for the right to work because they just love labour, they did it so they could do labour that is PAID.
