I've come to realize that there is a group of people in America who are cool with, literally, ANYTHING being denigrated as long as they like the denigrator.

Johnny Schaefer @hearjohnny.bsky.social talks about his new single “Find a Place” with producer Stephan Oberhoff. It’s all about music, healing, and collaboration. Listen on #BigBlendRadio: youtu.be/G08bI7Zgzx0?... #newmusic #feelgoodmusic

The world has gone crazy, but we don't have to. My new song, "Find a Place" featuring 9-time Grammy nominee Gerald Albright on saxophone is my attempt to bring some peace into this wild world. youtu.be/4OsJMo-sK_o?...

Double.

Just another sunny day in "embattled" Los Angeles 💕 #LosAngeles #LAStrong #NotaRiot #StandWithLA

They can remove Harvey Milk's name from ships at taxpayer expense, but it will only serve to increase his impact long-term. And Pete Hegseth will fade into anonymity as an embarrassing blip on our history. Like a festering pimple that heals and vanishes. #milk #hegseth #harveymilk

The Billionaires' Bogus Bill must be stopped! 5calls.org

"There'll be no more toy makers to the king!"

Canada is stepping in to provide this crucial service we can't be bothered to provide because billionaires need more money.

America is building up some nasty Karma.

Maybe when RFK said people with autism will never pay taxes he was thinking of Elon Musk.

This is bearing false witness against their neighbor. Aren't the plastering the Ten Commandments all over schools? www.facebook.com/groups/78270...

Churches/Pastors, If you won’t speak up on behalf of the least of these, if you aren’t willing to leverage your pulpits in the cause of the imprisoned—just what in the hot-and-humid hell are you opening your doors for? johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/if-your-ch...

They're digging in on Kilmar Abrego Garcia because they plan to do it to millions more and fast track it. #Garcia #immigration #dueprocess #SCOTUS

Hard to believe the hill the Justice Department wants to die on, we don’t want to comply with your order so we aren’t going to. Nothing like engaging in explicitly lawless behavior they don’t even pretend to regret.

They're striving to make it the 'Whiter than Ever House.' #trump #christiannationalist #magacult #racism #gop #racistrepublicans

Two 9-0 decisions demanding Due Process for all. "Nothing has been done." The ineptitude of this regime is astonishing. #garcia #immigration #SCOTUS #DueProcess

"Thou shalt not bear false witness against your neighbor." They're putting that up in schools now while spewing this kind of shit.

Exactly!

THREAD: Under a new law, thousands of prisoners in Louisiana have been cut off from ever getting a chance at parole. Why? Because an algorithm said so. 1/

Autism rates haven't changed. We're just better at identifying it

9-0 again. It could not be more clear that everyone MUST receive Due Process in the United States of America. #DueProcess #immigration #SCOTUS

They've erased the web page for #IraHayes, a native American soldier who raised the flag at Iwo Jima, but, so far, they haven't erased this #JohnnyCash song about him. youtu.be/oEwSwQtSmDQ?...

Spring feels like a surprise. Almost like it's inappropriate for flowers to bloom in #America this year. May they serve as an inspiration that beauty can still prevail.

What made the movie "When a Stranger Calls" so scary was the line, "The call is coming from inside the house." Well, the assault on democracy and the Constitution is coming from inside the government now.

Man, I wish we'd all resisted a lot more back when Ronald Reagan started all of this.

I love this for them.

Attention filmmakers: There are SO many dystopian stories out there. We need an uplifting, detailed vision of what the world could look like in a loving, inclusive society where every single person is valued.

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

@choralnotes.bsky.social Welcome to Blue Sky 😊

He's literally asking her to apologize for preaching the Gospel of Christ in a church. Don't want to hear that? Don't go to church.

One of the most blatant forms of Christian hypocrisy in our time is Christians holding all the ordinary people we share this country with accountable to the most rigid moral standards while simultaneously holding their preferred politicians accountable to no standards at all.

When we Christians are more known for our support of presidents than we are for our support of the poor, the immigrant, the marginalized, and the oppressed, that is when we know we are following someone other than Jesus and we have a lot of repenting to do.

If you’re upset by a woman prophetically speaking truth to power, allow me to introduce you to Jesus’ mom: “God has brought down rulers from their thrones but has lifted up the humble. God has filled the hungry with good things but has sent the rich away empty.” -Luke 1:52-53

If your Christianity causes you to be offended by someone asking the most powerful person in the country to be merciful towards the powerless, then you have profoundly misunderstood the teachings of Jesus Christ.

The people who pretend to want government out of our lives want that government to tell us what gender we are.
