If all these oligarchs named in the Epstein Files are totally innocent, surely they’d be in favor of an independent investigation into Epstein’s crimes. Right?

True Christianity advances without coercion. We persuade by love, witness, reason, rhetoric, Spirit, and, if need be, by martyrdom; but never by force, never by the sword, never by the coercive apparatus of this state.

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

This is a problem, as more and more churches will bend the knee to the gods of political expediency and quite explicitly become spiritual arms of candidates and partisan politics. [a thread]

Since 1954, an IRS rule had barred houses of worship from explicitly endorsing political candidates.

When I was a kid, we wanted robots. Because they were going to do the grunt work and we humans would spend our time doing beautiful, intellectual, and artistic things. IRL it seems to be turning out exactly the opposite...?

“I’m so ‘entitled’ that I get to take my son to therapy 4 days a week. Medicaid is the backbone of the care that Charlie receives.” The incredible mother of Charles William Curtis

“The best way to honor our parents' memory is to do something, whether big or small, to make our community just a little better for someone else." Beautiful statement from Sophie and Colin Hortman.

Minnesota’s flags will fly at half staff in honor and remembrance of Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman. She woke up every morning determined to make Minnesota a better place, and she will be greatly missed.

This is how they intend to arrest anyone who doesn't bow down to them. You'll just be a "collateral arrest" to them. No warrant, no due process. Just kidnapping by the government simply for being in the same area or just bc IC doesn't like you. Do not tolerate this. It is prime Gestapo behavior.
