If your Christianity causes you to be offended by someone asking the most powerful person in the country to be merciful towards the powerless, then you have deeply, deeply misunderstood the teachings of Jesus Christ.
Today, Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde boldly called out Donald Trump for his hatred and bigotry at the National Cathedral Prayer Service. Now, the GOP is attacking her for speaking truth to power.
RETWEET if you stand with Bishop Budde against Trump!
Hi!
Holocaust historian here. Let me see if I can help. That wasn't a "weird salute." It was a Hitler salute. Because Elon is a fucking Nazi.
Hope that helps!
🟥 We’ve known for MANY years that Pierre is UNFIT, and a terrible choice for any type of serious leadership role... 🤷🏻♂️
Listen, Canada, despite the $3 Million ‘make-over’ – it’s the same guy! 👀
🔳 RICK MERCER, BACK IN THE DAY: “Because I guarantee you – you get any member of the Conservative caucus alone in a room and you ask them ‘who is the last man on earth who should be put in charge of reforming Democracy?’ and they will tell you, ‘Pierre Poilievre’”

🇨🇦 choices.
Carney is a 2 time governor of a federal bank and economist who has grown private companies into giants.
Poilievre is a 20 year politician with a huge pension that has never passed a single piece of legislation in Canada.
Start your engines conservatives.

Chrystia Freeland - Rhodes Scholar/Oxford, Harvard, journalist, award winning author
Mark Carney - Economist & banker, Former Gov Bank of Canada, Former Gov Bank of England
Pierre Poilievre - Former newspaper delivery boy. Lived off public teat for 20 yrs, 0 accomplishments
Justin Trudeau was the first prime minister in Canada who was criticized for taking a family vacation. They followed & harassed him & his family everywhere they went. They spit, threw rocks & cursed on him in front of his children.
But he always put Canada first.
Fu*k Poilievre
Some people say its time for change. Does that include losing your Child Tax Benefits, Healthcare, Dental Care, Carbon Tax REBATE, Childcare, CPP and working until 67 instead of 65? Does that include losing your own, your wife’s or daughters right to choose? That kind of change?
Pierre Poilievre & his entire Conservative caucus just voted against a tax holiday for Canadians.
After years of idiotic “AxE tHe TaX” sloganeering, they just made it crystal clear…
Cons don’t give a crap about you or affordability.
They work exclusively for big oil & gas.
OK, federal @liberal_party and NDP, time to get to work.
Coalition. New strategy. WHATEVER IT TAKES to fight off fascism in the form of the IDU-supported federal Conservative Party of Canada.
I want Canada to succeed, not succumb.
WHATEVER IT TAKES. START NOW.
Kamala Harris didn't lose, America did.
As a nation, we collectively failed her—and in doing so we failed girls and women, the LGBTQ community, people of color, Muslims, Jewish people, immigrants, the sick, the poor, the elderly, the people of Ukraine, and Gaza, and the planet.
It's unthinkable, that instead of being able to celebrate a beautiful, hopeful new chapter in the story of this nation with a leader who appealed to the best of our natures—we will instead be holding a postmortem for democracy as we enter our 250th year, stewarded by a malevolent sociopath who despises empathy and shuns the law.
I truly thought we were better than this, that our shared humanity would show up. I thought we would reject this hatred and ugliness once and for all.
I hate being wrong about the majority of the people of this nation.
I don't know what's ahead. All I know is that good-hearted human beings are more necessary now than ever.
We did all that we could to avoid this moment, but now that it's here we'll just have to decide who we will be.
There is no way to comprehend or measure how grievous an error this is, but the only thing the decent people of this nation can do is wake up tomorrow and fight like hell for what we still believe is worth the fight, and we will.
I'll be doing that with whoever has the strength to join me.
I'm mourning the country we could have been and the one we apparently are—but I refuse to give up believing that compassion is the right path, that diversity makes us better, and that love is greater than fear.
