.@JamesTalarico: For 50 years, the religious right convinced our fellow Christians that the most important issues were abortion and gay marriage—two issues that aren't mentioned in the Bible.
Jesus tells us exactly how we're going to be judged: by feeding the hungry, by healing the sick, and by welcoming the stranger.
Don’t tell me what you believe. Show me how you treat other people, and I’ll tell you what you believe. Jesus gave us two commandments: love God and love neighbor.
There was no exception to that second commandment regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, immigration status, or religious affiliation.
I apologize to all Iowans who, like me, remember when we elected Tom Vilsack Governor, third state to legalize same-sex marriage, voted for Obama TWICE and lead the nation in public education. This is not the Iowa we live in today and it saddens me beyond words.
I applaud the people brave enough to leave the Trump administration now. It takes courage.
After airline flights, I too have been known to unbuckle my seatbelt moments before the aircraft has "come to a complete stop," so I have experienced this level of courage first hand.
Let me get this straight. A Black man is shot in the back 7 times, while getting in car with his kids. A White youth carrying an AR-15 walks away, after killing people. Same police force, same town, same week. And what is Trump’s response? Send in troops to crush the protesters.
@HyVee how about enforcing your one person per cart rule and limiting the number of people you let in your stores? Jordan Creek and Waukee stores mobbed on Saturday. Stark difference from Whole Foods, Trader Joes and Costco who prioritize social distancing.
