If you’re still deciding between voting for Kamala Harris or Jill Stein, please take a moment to watch. I made this video with Palestinian American and political activist @RaniaBatrice. We understand being conflicted but wanted to share our perspective.

[Dwight McKissic @pastordmack]

For those who have expressed outrage over my voting for Kamala Harris, in response to the MSNBC article that was published yesterday and has over 700, 000 views….please know that, anyone who has or will be voting for Donald J. Trump, I simply will not engage with you in a discussion surrounding my character, credibility, or whether or not I’m a Christian.

[Michelle Obama @MichelleObama]

We have to choose leaders who embody the values we seek to pass onto our children. 

We can’t forget that the words our leaders utter have a real impact on them – those words can build them up, or they can tear them down.

So please, please vote for a better future for our kids. Vote for @KamalaHarris and @Tim_Walz.

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

Former Trump aide @Alyssafarah: “I'm speaking as a former senior aide to Donald Trump who knows him very well. This is the most important election of our lifetimes because he is the most dangerous man to have ever sat in the American presidency.”

[Shane Claiborne @ShaneClaiborne]

I am troubled by Trump, but I am even more troubled by the people who claim to be Christians that defend him…

@Franklin_Graham @seanfeucht @robertjeffress @charliekirk11

Trump is vulgar and mean.
He has made a vocation out of the seven deadly sins, and a mockery of the fruits of the Spirit.

Trump needs Jesus.
And we need a new President.

We shouldn’t allow our middle school kids to act like this… let alone someone aspiring to be President.

You cannot follow Jesus and Trump.
Choose Jesus.

[Zach W. Lambert @ZachWLambert]

On Friday morning, I quickly tweeted out this voting selfie and then spent the rest of the day hanging out with my family because my kids were off school.

Later that day, I opened twitter to find thousands of comments and DMs filled with slurs, insults, death threats, and other malicious messages.

It’s only gotten worse since then as this is now my most viewed tweet ever.

I’m not telling you this so you’ll feel sorry for me; so many people have it much worse. I’m telling you because this morning at church I did something I really didn’t want to do—I preached about Jesus’ command to love our enemies.

To be blunt, I don’t want to love my enemies right now. I want to be hateful. I want to demean the people who demeaned me. I want to dehumanize the people dehumanized my family. I want to degrade the people who degraded my friends.

But that’s not the way of Jesus. The way of Jesus is love of neighbor and enemy. This doesn’t mean we don’t have boundaries or that we put ourselves in positions to be abused, but it does mean that we don’t return hate for hate. We meet hate with love instead.

As Dorothy Day says, “I really only love God as much as I love the person I love the least.”

“In this country, we have no ‘other people.’ We are American people, all of is.”

This 1940s film warning against bigotry and fascism is more relevant now than ever.

[Mrs Finch @MrsEmilyFinch]

I posted this on FB. Not to debate. Just to share my heart. Stirred up a hornets nest. I should have known better.
I’m exhausted.

@Tunde_OD I would like to support her. How can you link us up?

[Funmi Para-Mallam @MniFunmi]

@arcsamueljatau Huge congratulations for a well deserved recognition and honor. May you leave a lasting legacy.

[Funmi Para-Mallam @MniFunmi]

Thank God for people who think critically, sanely and who really love their country enough to put country above party. Nigerians should learn a lesson here.

@tnuh87 “The sign language gesture for "I love you" is 🤟, which is made by extending your thumb and raising your index and pinky fingers. The sign originated with deaf schoolchildren in American Sign Language: combination of the signs for the letters I, L, & Y” https://t.co/bmyCQf8JFn
