Today I got to watch the consecration of +Jeff Bailey as our new Bishop of #C4SO. I am happy to have seen this historic moment for my diocese and church. There might have been a moment where I shed a tear or two seeing +Todd Hunter relinquishing his office. But I am excited for what is ahead.

I'm not keen on religious-related content and religion shouldn't be politicized, though I felt his message is relevant & should be shared

NEW: Governor Newsom will be holding a press conference and rally at 11:30 AM PT tomorrow in Los Angeles regarding redistricting. The announcement is chef's kiss.

Reporter: You said it’s guns on the street that’s causing this problem. Are you concerned that the DOJ’s funding cuts to gun violence prevention programs undermine the— Pirro: Oh stop it!

One of the things that marked out the early Christians and led to their persecution was their refusal to participate in the imperial cult, most especially refusing to worship the emperor and his family often at great personal, financial, and social cost.

Ok this is my laugh for the night.

The Epstein files must make Watergate look like a parking ticket.

Heck yeah! Keep fighting

I can’t help but notice the Wall Street Journal stopped getting Epstein leaks after Todd Blanche met with Ghislaine Maxwell and she was moved to a minimum security resort.

“Not all those who wander are lost…” J.R.R Tolkien #book #reading #quoteoftheday

1/2 I’ve been rewatching the Lord of the Rings movies. The portion of the series where it takes an army of cursed dead men to fight for Gondor for the orc army to be defeated had a special symbolism. Essentially it was the past mistakes of men that saved the future of men.

1/2 I have decided to minimize my political exposure for my mental health. I have been very angry and depressed lately and I don’t think the people around me deserve that. I will be focusing more on my faith. So I’m sorry if you liked me for my politics, I’ll will do some of that… but

This is why we need the DOJ files, not the grand jury testimony.

I just finished listening to the White House Press briefing. We are no longer in a democracy if the president is able to federalize a local police force. The people of DC do not deserve to see the military in their streets.

Everyday truths the red hats ignore…

These people are frothing at the mouth with anticipation of the possibility of arresting the Texas Democrats. Maybe put your orange hero in prison and leave these people alone because they are trying to save our democracy. #USDemocracy www.mediaite.com/media/tv/tex...

Texas has the lowest voter turnout in the entire country. Imagine if EVERY Democrat in Texas showed up in the next election. We’d flip blue.

Happened in Germany too. When good men/women stay silent, bad men run free

If so. This is a bigger problem than we believed possible. Scientists losing standards is one of the last things to go in a democracy

Which is what is wrong with mainstream evangelical Christianity. It’s all about personality to them. Catholicism has its own issues.

When the King is a liar. The truth becomes treason…

He will do anything that isn’t guaranteed to work. That is why he should be arrested for war crimes. www.politico.com/news/magazin...

Everything about this points to authoritarianism taking over our state and country.

And he was right. They did, and they will again so make it to where they can’t deny it

Thanks God. Now give her a conscience…

Trump and Putin are meeting on US soil because a country lawless enough not to arrest Trump is lawless enough not to arrest Putin. www.npr.org/2023/03/17/1...

Thanks, @barrieholme.bsky.social 🩵 bsky.app/profile/did:...

What is wrong with this dude??

When the police become criminals, you are in a backwards country

Does this trend work for a liberal man with a dad bod?

Insightful article on the Creed as prayer:

The 1979 was my first as well and is still used in my church. But I purchased the 1662 IVP prayerbook and really enjoyed it as well.

The ACNA has grown exponentially over recent years, including the rise of several Megachurches. What has led to this growth? Check out our latest article from Peter Johnston: anglicancompass.com/rise-of-the-...

And there is no moral high ground for them. Democrats may tend toward affording citizens choices, and each stands accountable to God. But too often the GOP forces a disreputable or immoral path for the sake of its 'righteous' end. #Republican #evangelical

This needs to be said, and political #evangelical pastors and elders must consider. For the #Republican Party, the end will always justify the means, no matter how underhanded or, increasingly, brazen the act. They are well accomplished with situational ethics.

America is no stranger to war crimes. De-nuclearizing the world is a goal all peoples should stride toward.

Pluto is still a planet in my eyes. Just like the Gulf of Mexico is still “of Mexico”. Stop trying to change my childhood!!!

I was happy with it. Keep doing town halls MAGA. We will keep yelling at you.

They are LEGAL leave them alone!!!

Congressional Texas Rep. Al Green @algreen.house.gov calling out TX Gov. Abbott’s plans to racially gerrymander TX House seats to save the felon’s thin & unpopular GOP House! GOP plans to spread this rigging of maps ahead of the 2026 election through gerrymandering to Missouri, Indiana, Ohio & more!

Close it down. Lock them up…

60 years ago today, the Voting Rights Act became law. Now, we have an administration conducting voter suppression in real time. In Texas, Republicans are trying to gut our democracy by redrawing maps to erase 5 Democratic seats—before a single vote is cast. (1/2)

Well… don’t touch their stuff and they won’t touch you. By stuff I mean, don’t kill them.

Just so I get this right…. You are telling me that drawing a majority minority district in a state that is designed to give a voice to that population is a violation of the VRA that tells you to not cancel out minority votes? Big brain tactics right there…

It’s funny that something this popular exists, yet he won’t do it… the truth will come out eventually…

We told them…

I mourne for my country and what it should be… No one is asking him to not be tough on crime. We are asking him not be harmful to those who are the most vulnerable in our communities… O God make speed to save us, O Lord make haste to help us. Blessed Trinity. Amen. time.com/7306493/us-h...
