@walterwhitepill My ⛪️ is also transparent about its care to the parish. Air conditioner went out & cost $250k to replace. Archdiocese takes $325k in annual appeal. Priests give out $50k a year to people who knock on their doors asking for help.
@JasonJonesVPP Look at the first reading for today from Acts 4:23-31… Why did the Gentiles rage and the peoples entertain folly?
The kings of the earth took their stand
and the princes gathered together
against the Lord and against His anointed.
@exanxc I really enjoyed the series. Lots of action. Good message of triumph over evil. A bit campy towards the end. There was supposed to be a second season but the pandemic got in the way.
Hidden on page 744 of the farm bill the House Agriculture Committee passed Thursday is a provision that would condemn millions of pigs to a lifetime in gestation crates.
Rebranded the 'Save Our Bacon Act,' it's a pork-industry play to wipe out every state law banning the sale of pork from crated pigs — laws the conservative Supreme Court upheld in 2023.
Over 85% of Democrats and Republicans oppose these crates. Voters have backed ballot measures to ban them in state after state.
The pork industry knows it can't win a straight vote on this. So it's burying the provision in an 800-page bill and hoping no one notices.
Contact your senators and representative today and tell them: oppose the farm bill unless the Save Our Bacon Act is stripped out. You can reach them at https://t.co/MQvByA4atR and https://t.co/v6ghw99u1K — it takes two minutes and it matters.
