If your house of worship is silent about the cruelty and the attacks on your neighbors by ICE, you’re at the wrong church, mosque, synagogue, temple, or gurdwara. Powerful ad by Interfaith Alliance — a plea for humanity.

It's 2025, and we're sharing bootleg 60 Minutes segments broadcast in other countries because our own country is being run by fascists and their billionaire-owned state media helpers, just as the Founding Fathers intended, of course.

And Sharyn Alfonsi has proved herself a case study in journalism ethics and courage!

So Bari Weiss’s first real editorial intervention at CBS is to repress coverage of American concentration camps.

“Many Americans feel that the promise of the nation is slipping beyond reach, while others feel unseen, unheard, or expendable. This is not merely a political crisis. It is a spiritual one.” By @raushenbush.bsky.social @ianbassin.bsky.social for @thebulwark.com open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

“When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not oppress them. The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt.” (Leviticus 19:33-34) #LoveNotICE

Powerful.

Wow. (Be sure to share with any “good Christians” celebrating the lawlessness of Trump’s masked goon squad.)

Note: there are religious groups — including entire Christian denominations — that hold deeply held religious views that could be classified as some of these “agendas”.

I never expected to hear a "Christmas" sermon centered on the genocide of the Amalekites. It's even worse that this call to follow a "God of war" occurred at the Pentagon: publicwitness.wordandway.org/p/at-pentago...

Today, Interfaith Alliance and our partners MPAC, @thejcpa.bsky.social + @unionseminary.bsky.social convened on Capitol Hill to discuss Jewish-Muslim solidarity in the face of horrific hate and violence targeting both communities. We were also joined by @raskin.house.gov and @replsimon.bsky.social.

Enjoyed talking with @raushenbush.bsky.social for 'State of Belief' (a great podcast from @interfaithalliance.org & @rns.org). We talked about Pete Hegseth's prayer services at the Pentagon, how Christian Nationalists misuse the Bible, & more. Check it out: www.interfaithalliance.org/post/the-war...

Got to meet one of my heroes today! Rev. Dr. Senator @warnock.senate.gov gave a great speech on healing our nation’s spiritual crisis, as we work to revive the @americanprogress.bsky.social Faith Initiative. Watch: www.youtube.com/live/4F3Qm-M...

Join us at @americanprogress.bsky.social today to hear @warnock.senate.gov on our nation’s spiritual crisis. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

It's hard to explain to normies how much effort Trump is putting into anti-trans policies. This is like the 12th thing just this week. And there were 12 things the week before, and 12 things the week before that. There will be 12 things next week. This is almost everything the government is doing.

You‘re invited! @americanprogress.bsky.social @warnock.senate.gov www.americanprogress.org/events/resto...

Rep. Salazar, apparently referring to socialism, says Dems have been “infiltrated by an ideology that is completely foreign to the American values — the Judeo-Christian values.” Religion note: Myriad debates around it aside, there's a long history of U.S. Christian and Jewish support for socialism.

In the decade since Obergefell made same-sex marriage the law of the land, public opinion continues to shift in favor of same-sex marriage.

Newsom: "Think about the state of mind of the VP. How do you square the circle when you go to a prayer breakfast? Old testament, new testament. What's the fundamental thing that connects John to Matthew to Proverbs? It's this notion of hunger, feeding the poor. It's central to advancing God's will."

Want a party that actually fights back? Run for office. We’ll help you. runforwhat.net

This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.

Our litigation at @democracyforward.org has exposed this administration for what it is: cruel and willing to use the American people (including those who voted for the President) as political pawns. We will not stop fighting for the people. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

The last month of the anti-Mamdani campaign was an absolutely shameful undertaking, an attempt to rip the city and Democratic coalition apart and I'm very happy to see it failed.

A pro-affordability, anti-Trump-corruption message unites the party. Every candidate can run on that, and every candidate can have their own take to fit that to their constituents. There's really no need to find fights to pick when the party agrees on more than it disagrees

A victory for religious freedom!

Reminder: it’s ok to feel good about good results on an election night. You don’t have to worry that you’re jinxing something or that there’s no time to celebrate. Revel in the victories when you can, you can roll up your sleeves and get back to work tomorrow.

These big wins will embolden Dems to take on Trump's lawbreaking and show there's a price for GOP enabling of him. Folks hate to hear this, but normal patterns are asserting themselves: Liberalism isn't dead, Rs are likely to lose in 2026, and Trump is really unpopular, not a magical exception.

score one for "the pundits are projecting their own preoccupations onto the electorate"

Even more relevant now that Dems are going to control Virginia.

Congratulations to Virginia governor-elect Abigail Spanberger, who will be the first woman to hold the state's highest office. Virginians are clear—they want a governor who will fight back against Trump's chaos and ensure they can afford everyday essentials.

A seeming bit of history tonight as Ghazala Hashmi becomes the first Asian American to win statewide office in Virginia - and the first Muslim woman to win statewide office *anywhere* in the United States.

Praise be to God!

I don't know what will happen in NYC tonight, but I do know that regardless of outcome, any number of public figures, celebrities, politicians and institutions that oppose Mamdani have done so with a level of rhetorical ugliness, racism, and dishonesty that should neither be forgotten nor forgiven.

Decision Desk HQ is the first to call a race, saying Abigail Spanberger wins. The anti-trans attacks seem to have failed in Virginia. Virginia was the ground zero after Youngkin won on a fledgeling anti-trans platform in 2021.

Religious bigotry is certainly a current throughout US history, but the dominant narrative is one of an expanding realization of religious freedom for ALL — the founding promise of the United States.
