@RBReich History will remember this presidency as a very dark time. The corruption and lies that are undermining our democracy and enriching the elite are facts. Those who chose not to believe them are either ignorant of the law or lying to themselves. I don't know which is worse.
There are kids from my high school in Parkland, FL who were freshmen during the MSD shooting and are now seniors at FSU during this current mass shooting.
Welcome to Florida, welcome to America.
@ChrisCuomo They mentioned of the atrocities of October 7th and reaffirmed it was wrong. This is an Israeli and a Palestinian coming together to work for peace. We should be applauding it. Attitudes such as yours only block that path. Peace is not achieved through tit for tat.
Inequality has jeopardized the future of Social Security.
As the rich have gotten richer, more and more of their income has escaped the cap on the Social Security payroll tax.
We should be focused on fixing this by scrapping the cap, not cutting benefits.
X (Twitter) is not a platform for free speech and civil discourse. It is mostly a platform for propaganda, without the courtesy and consideration necessary for productive dialogue. It is also an alarming reflection of the current state of humanity.
Assisting the vulnerable is always a privilege, because theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven (Mt 5:3). Each time we approach a vulnerable person and offer our help, we have the opportunity to touch the flesh of Christ.
Let us continue to pray for martyred Ukraine, where even hospitals and other civilian buildings are being targeted. May we pray for Palestine, Israel, Lebanon, Myanmar, and Sudan. Let us pray for peace throughout the world.
The next time you hear someone blame inflation on stimulus checks that Americans got four years ago or workers finally getting much-needed pay bumps, kindly remind them that corporate profits are at a 70-year-high. Hello?
Simply as human beings we are the same. And the 8 billion people alive today will only survive by acknowledging that we belong to one human family. This is how we create a truly peaceful world—by keeping in mind what we all have in common and being helpful to each other. This can be our #PeaceDayChallenge
Here is the full Morgan Freeman-narrated Kamala Harris video that just showed at the DNC.
Morgan Freeman is amazing. Glad to see him get behind Harris.
Our world's problem is not the number of children born into it. The problem is selfishness, consumerism and individualism, which make people satiated, lonely and unhappy. #WorldPopulationDay
Today @WCKitchen lost several of our sisters and brothers in an IDF air strike in Gaza. I am heartbroken and grieving for their families and friends and our whole WCK family. These are people…angels…I served alongside in Ukraine, Gaza, Turkey, Morocco, Bahamas, Indonesia. They are not faceless…they are not nameless. The Israeli government needs to stop this indiscriminate killing. It needs to stop restricting humanitarian aid, stop killing civilians and aid workers, and stop using food as a weapon. No more innocent lives lost. Peace starts with our shared humanity. It needs to start now.
WCK’s Sam is at a camp in Rafah, Gaza where families are building shelters with whatever they can. Hundreds of thousands of Palestinains have fled south seeking safety—we delivered enough food kits here to prepare 70,000 meals & will return with many more. #ChefsForThePeople
@WCKitchen@chefjoseandres If you can, please support World Central Kitchen. They are an amazing organization. What they are doing in Gaza is so important and much more is needed.
Let us #PrayTogether for those people on the margins of society in subhuman living conditions, that they may not be neglected by institutions and never be cast out. #PrayerIntention#ClickToPray
