@gatorgar Yes. Church is for all. Will be praying for you!

Thank you @PressSec for shaming the media at the White House today who tried to cover up this deadly hate crime.

Shame them in front of the entire world.

This is why I voted for Trump.

To fight evil you must first confront it.

The Trump admin is fearless in fighting evil…

🚨WATCH: Karoline Leavitt tears into Democrats for protecting and letting dangerous career criminals like Iryna Zarutska’s killer roam free and terrorize American citizens instead of keeping them behind bars:

“Here's the truth that every American must know: Too many innocent people across the country continue to pay the price of the failed experiment known as cashless bail that has been championed by the Democrat Party for years.”

“Instead of aggressively prosecuting and locking up violent criminals, the Democrat-backed cashless bail approach lets these criminals roam free in our country to offend again and again. These reckless policies have turned too many, many of American cities into hunting grounds for career criminals who mock our justice system, drain law enforcement resources, and wreak havoc on law-abiding citizens. Enough is enough.”

“When these criminals are caught, they must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and be sent to prison where they can no longer terrorize our streets. This is the mandate the American people delivered to President Trump, and it's a mandate he intends to fulfill.”

Decades spent alone
Tearing down my old self
to create a newness within me

To call my own

The Texas Department of Criminal Justice has banned yet another book in its prisons. Except this time, it was written by inmates themselves. https://t.co/ivoIPtX8Hn

[Texas Defender Service @TexDefender]

Horrible news today: A TX court has upheld the execution warrant for @RobertRoberson, even though there was no crime. This is a legal system that will privilege executing an innocent, autistic man over self-correction. Sign the petition to Save Robert: https://t.co/81U1MSSk0W

They wrote a book while locked in solitary confinement. Texas won’t let them read it https://t.co/27GvVhPYk9

[TEXAS LETTERS @TheTexasLetters]

Thank you @GuardianUS for helping shed light on the recent banning of the TEXAS LETTERS books by the Texas Department of Criminal Justice in an attempt to silence and suppress the ongoing horrors of solitary confinement.

Please help Louis get to his goal of $10,000 to assist with legal fees, and let's see him released from Alabama prison.

Anything helps.

On Oct. 17, Texas plans to execute Robert Roberson for a crime that never occurred. The lead detective on his case now says Roberson is innocent and should be set free. My latest for @theappeal. https://t.co/F2DkpBufOE

"this officer that beat the offender, also hung this offender. And made it look like a suicide, which was not true. All this and more has messed me up mentally."

"With the corruption, & lack of mental stability there is so much more I wish to speak about but the fear of speaking out because I am still an “offender” to them & my life, safety, & freedom is in the palm of their hand & retaliation is real."
