Mr Trump fails to realize that a hundred million Americans who either IDENTIFY as Christian or RESPECT core elements of Christianity… recognize Trump as the antithesis of Christian ethics as well as being a dangerous, mentally aberrant menace.
@LlpartainLori @JosoruTairisiu @EastEndJoe How about the Central Park kids and Trump’s full page ad? His refusal to admit he was wrong about them? Wait: this is pointless. You are a bot.
@mohakrf@notsuasnega Mais alguns dados sobre o nome. O fato de adotarem “Sabra” para uma personagem deplorável não deveria (?!?) eliminar para sempre o uso do nome ou o respeito por pessoas vivas ou mortas portando tal nome. https://t.co/PeD48Zn4Ry
@mohakrf@notsuasnega O nome Sabra existe há no mínimo un século, e não só como nome próprio. Há uma flor com esse nome. O filme pode ser péssimo, o massacre um evento (lamentável)^3. Nem por isso vou olhar com ódio para certa colega judia que se chama Sabra. Meu nome tem origem hebraica. Calma…
@BarbaraComstock This rigged election propaganda so undermines our democracy. Trump Republicans now mistrust the integrity of our elections. And this big lie is repeated over and over.
Thanks, @DanielMillerEsq - from a Daniel who cannot begin to grasp how a man with this history is STILL (apparently?) in a position to return to the White House.

Dear New York Times editorial board,
Did I miss your 2024 piece requesting Donald Trump drop out of the Presidential race after multiple convictions and multiple women saying he assaulted them or after January 6 or after dozens and dozens of other horrors?
In a scene that could serve as a tragic epitaph for the state of modern American law enforcement, Wisconsin police officers, adorned in their ceremonial uniforms, lined up to shake hands with a man convicted of multiple felonies. This disheartening tableau not only signifies a profound lapse in moral judgement but also highlights the disintegration of the ethical framework that once underpinned these institutions. The officers' obsequious display reveals a stark contrast between the lofty ideals of justice and the sordid reality of political allegiance.
The visual of uniformed officers, symbols of law and order, offering their hands to a figure so deeply entrenched in legal and moral malfeasance, presents an image that is both disheartening and farcical. It is as if the very fabric of societal norms is being mockingly unraveled before our eyes, thread by thread. The unspoken question lingers: what message does this send to the citizens they are sworn to protect? The answer, resoundingly clear, is one of betrayal and disillusionment.
These officers, by their actions, have aligned themselves with the basest forms of political theatre, choosing the hollow accolades of partisanship over the steadfast duties of their vocation. The handshake, once a symbol of trust and solidarity, has been debased to a mere prop in a macabre performance. This act underscores the alarming erosion of principled leadership and the ascendancy of a sycophantic culture that venerates power at the expense of integrity. In this moment, the officers are not merely participants in a ceremony; they are complicit actors in a pantheon of disgrace, a masterclass in the art of moral compromise. The societal implications of such actions are profound, reminding us that the true test of justice lies not in the grandeur of proclamations but in the quiet, steadfast adherence to ethical principles.
Hesitant about supporting Netanyahu’s strategy for Hamas?

Today, President Biden put forward a clear, realistic and just plan to establish an immediate ceasefire and end the war in Gaza - a plan that ensures Israel’s security, returns hostages taken on October 7th to their families, increases aid into Gaza and relieves the suffering of Palestinian civilians, and engages Israelis, Palestinians, Arab countries and the broader international community in the process of rebuilding Gaza.
A ceasefire alone won’t ease the terrible pain of Israelis whose loved ones were butchered or abducted by Hamas, or the Palestinians whose families have been shattered by the subsequent war. It won’t resolve the longstanding conflict between Israelis and Palestinians, or answer contentious issues surrounding a two-state solution or continuing settler activity in the West Bank. But what it can do is put a stop to the ongoing bloodshed, help families reunite and allow a surge of humanitarian aid to help desperate, hungry people. It can save lives, here and now - and it can lay the foundation for what will be a long and difficult road to a future in which Israel is secure and at peace with its neighbors, and Palestinians finally have the security, freedom and self-determination that they have sought for so long.
As the tragedy in Gaza has unfolded over the past eight months, we’ve witnessed an often fierce public debate here at home - and around the world - regarding how the United States should respond. But no matter where each of us stand in these broader debates, an enduring ceasefire is something we should all support - for the sake of Israelis, Palestinians and the world at large. I am deeply encouraged by the steady, tireless efforts of President Biden, Secretary of State Tony Blinken and our diplomatic team to bring this awful war to an end.
Whew chile! Guilty on all counts in a state case! No matter what happens in November, he cannot “undo” this verdict. I know many are celebrating & I get it, but my heart fucking breaks for our country! How did we get here?! When did we stop requiring some darned decency of the most powerful person on Earth?!
The grand jurors, the prosecutors, the judge, the witnesses & this jury deserve so much more than they will receive. This was a brave undertaking in an unnecessarily violent & politically charged America.
FYI, today was a win for the rule of law!
