Mike Johnson and GOP are cowards. Rather than doing the right thing, the people’s work, and taking necessary action, they are going home until November.

You know who Ed Sheeran reminds of? People who don’t vote.
Ed Sheeran needs to learn that if you don’t “pick a side”, you’re picking the side of the oppressor.
Every single time.
It’s that simple.

Regardless of how we feel about a musicians talent or skill, it’s genuinely awesome to see someone who says “I’m not political” finally understand how political a statement that is.

Somebody was trying to convince me today that their god was good and brought up Job. I explained to them that his god tortured Job to win a bet with the devil.
The guy said, “really? That’s not what I heard, but I haven’t read it.”
I believe this is a reflection of the Christian majority.

This administration protecting sex offenders? Say it isn’t so.
The US secretly flew an American diplomat out of the UK after he was found with child abuse images during a dawn raid, reportedly without notifying British police beforehand.

This race got boring quick. And McLaren threw the race away. Change Piastri’s wing during the VSC and anticipate the VSC and call Norris in when you see that yellow flag and Stroll stopped.
Imagine that team with Hannah being their head of strategy.

I was asked to play God Bless America at a gig because the hosts wanted patriotic music, I responded that This Land would be better and more patriotic. We played neither but that band is now my lowest priority.
Woody Guthrie penned "This Land Is Your Land" 86 years ago in 1940, in response to Irving Berlin's "God Bless America."
It was among the first songs to be chosen by the Library of Congress for inclusion in the National Recording Registry.

This really is the White Christian Nationalist brand. Better known as the GOP or Republicans.
Hypocrisy, child abuse, racism, in the name of Jesus.

A pastor for Michael Whatley, the North Carolina GOP Senate nominee, opened with a prayer asking God to bestow "integrity and honesty." It was delivered by Pastor Daimon King, a registered sex offender twice imprisoned for convictions involving children.

We did it so wrong afterwards. We suspended constitutional rights embraced racism, and flouted jingoism. Saying that we did it wrong was cast as “unpatriotic” and thus authoritarianism gained another giant foothold.
And now the more dangerous terrorism is domestic and comes straight from the top.
