On day 3 of pride month, I want to remark on the difference between homosexual sin and almost all other sin. Most sin, gluttony, adultery, lying, stealing, etc, is acknowledged, even by those doing it, as sin. This allows for repentance and Grace.
@april_abosede@marceelias And, you still haven't. However, believing states should carve out districts by race is pretty damn racist, so, congrats on that one.
🚨BREAKING: The Secretary of Homeland Security just admitted, on camera, that he is going to violate your First Amendment right to free speech.
He said, “I have ZERO tolerance. If you verbally assault our officers… we will find you, we will arrest you.”
Except… that’s not how the First Amendment works.
Unless someone is making a credible threat of violence, speech… even rude, angry, or insulting speech… is still protected.
That’s the whole point of a free speech clause… to protect the people from situations where those in power don’t like what’s being said.
So, when a top federal official starts framing “verbal assault” as something you can be arrested for, without clearly defining it as an actual threat…
It stops sounding like protecting officers, and starts sounding like a government trying to silence people who speak out against it.
From Sen. Tillis' questioning of Sec. Bessent at Senate Finance:
"Did you actually tell [Bill] Pulte you were going to punch him in the face?"
"No sir, I actually said I was going to kick his ass."
"Good...I share the emotion."
Marco Rubio is running CIRCLES around the Democrats today 🤣🔥
DEM: “You couldn't admit the shoes the president bought you were too big!"
RUBIO: “We're talking about SHOES??! Is this the Foreign Affairs Committee, or is this a CIRCUS? What is this?!” 😂
🚨 TILLIS TO BESSENT: Did you tell Director Pulte you’d punch him in the face?
BESSENT: “No sir — I actually said I was going to kick his ASS!”
LMAOOOO ☠️
I, on the other hand, would vote for a rock instead of a Democrat, always. Virginia just elected Spanberger here, she ran as a "moderate" Democrat, former CIA, all that...she has governed like a California Democrat since the moment she took office. Even the dems that WANT to come across as moderate are lying.
Wait, you want Congress to step in and control how much a company charges you for a completely voluntary service YOU subscribe to? Seriously, it's right there in the word, just unsubscribe instead of running off to ask daddy government to fix it for you.
I truly wish @PBS would hire the team that @60Minutes has fired, including those-soon-to-leave Scott Pelley etc. and create their own version of this iconic program. Ratings would be huge.
Good will would be even larger.
Ok, I admit it, Boomers really DID have it better than later generations, even GenX. All we had was Clackers, Lawn Darts, and complete lack of supervision to try and permanently damage ourselves. Kids in the 50's had friggin Atomic Energy Labs!
🚨 LMAO! A Democrat Congresswoman just STORMED OUT of Marco Rubio’s hearing, as Rubio clowned on her
“Wait, why is she leaving?! …Well, thank you for coming!” 🤣
He’s got all these Democrats SUPER angry 😂
Earlier today, I filed a motion and memo of law in support of my clients' effort to have Virginia's so-called "assault weapons" ban & so-called "large capacity magazine" ban held unconstitutional under Art. I, Sec. 13 of Virginia's Constitution (not the 2nd Amendment).
I stood at this pool, at both monuments and saw both reflections…
He’s a God damn idiot, as are the fools that support him. The “Reflection Pool” wasn’t designed by American architect Henry Bacon a hundred years ago to look like a swimming pool. It’s designed to have a darkened characteristics that has reflective qualities to reflect the monuments.
That way, the Washington Monument is reflective to you when at the Lincoln Memorial, and when at the Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial is reflective to you.
It’s designed to enhance the grandeur of monuments, create an illusion of reflection, and inclusion of expansive space of unity.
He’s a tacky vulgar person that vulgarizes everything he touches. America isn’t becoming great, it’s becoming vulgar.
