@SethDillon @GuntherEagleman When Judas led the Soldiers to arrest Jesus, he told Peter to "put away your sword."
Why was Peter carrying a sword?
English

JD Vance sharply responds to Pope Leo XIV:
“When the Pope says God is never on the side of those who wield the sword, there is more than a thousand-year tradition of Just War Theory in Christianity.”
“Just as I have to be careful when speaking about public policy as Vice President, the Pope should be very careful when speaking about theology.”
“If you’re going to opine on matters of theology, it must be anchored in truth. That’s what I strive for, and it’s exactly what we should expect from the clergy, Catholic or Protestant.”
English

@SethDillon @GuntherEagleman You need to study the difference between the Old Testament and the New Testament.
English

@GuntherEagleman He's right, but doesn't go far enough. It's not just a thousand-year tradition. The Bible itself is filled not just with warfare, but with God's commanding it. The claim that God is "never on the side of those who wield the sword" directly contradicts Scripture.
English

@Dvmcmr @GuntherEagleman Did any of them, ever, call for bombing anyone, ever? Religion and beliefs gives you the right to speak out for those beliefs. You are free to listen to your own religious leaders, if you have any, rather than to them. But don’t complain when their beliefs hit home.
English

@GuntherEagleman The pope has gone rogue, like judges.
Nothing against Catholics or Catholicism, the pope is a human, subject to sin.
What the pope, cardinals and bishops are doing in the political arena is beyond the pale.
English

@america_amen @GuntherEagleman Well. He lies good sometimes. And of course changes his position on about everything as needed for the current office.
English

@GuntherEagleman Vance is one of the sharpest politicians we’ve had in a while. Certainly the sharpest VP in my lifetime. The man is a heavyweight intellectually. Is that enough to be a great President? With Marco as an executioner, and Trump in the wings as continuing mentor, I think so.
English

@mham413 @GuntherEagleman Yes. But he didn’t say politics. He said theology. That is the popes business.
English

Trump: "I had the greatest year, the greatest opening year. I ended 8 wars. The greatest economy ever. But even when you have a great president, they tend to lose the midterms. It doesn't make sense to me. We've had the greatest year in the history of the presidency, first year. We should be given credit."
English

@WolfshadeTact @dogwoodblooms Killing is a capital crime. You breed to go to jail if you are making specific threats. And then to Russia.
English

@dogwoodblooms Name calling and being all offended says you have no argument and are resorting to female methods of warfare - shaming, moralizing, etc.
Whatevs......
Have fun with voting.
English

Our country was set up to avoid exactly this. We are NOT a pure democracy. And we are not a pure democracy so that those who live in the urban areas can’t lord over those in distant rural areas.
I’m beyond disgusted.
What is the GOP doing to counter this BS and save our constitutional republic?
Micah@micah_erfan
🚨 Virginia has joined the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact. This brings America one step closer to a national popular vote for President.
English

@ReichlinMelnick We don’t need immigrants for fucking basic care. Such a ridiculous insertion that we can’t train people for a month (which is how long a CNA class is) to do basic care
English

If Trump gets his way and the Supreme Court blesses the pretextual termination of Haitian TPS, tens of thousands of elderly Americans across the country* will suddenly lose their caretakers.
*especially in Florida.
Kathleen Bush-Joseph@KathleenBushJo2
Why nursing homes worry about Trump’s push to deport Haitians Lower courts blocked the effort to send home Haitian immigrants, part of an already shrinking workforce in nursing homes. The Supreme Court will hear the case this month. washingtonpost.com/health/2026/04…
English

@rottdaddi @PeteSampson_ Yeah. I’m sure Jesus said that. Where again?
English

@PeteSampson_ Country has too much empathy that’s the problem!!!
English

Marcus Freeman getting The Esquire treatment in its latest issue:
“Being a person of color, half Korean, and married to an Italian woman, you have to have empathy. That’s something that maybe our country lacks at times.“

"I thought it was me as a Red Cross doctor making people better because I'm like a doctor I make people better."

Aaron Rupar@atrupar
Q: Did you post that picture of yourself depicted as Jesus Christ? TRUMP: I did post it and I thought it was me as a doctor and had to do Red Cross. Only the fake news could come up with that one.
English

@FakeMAGAPatriot @TheRickWilson This is so sick. Both trump and especially you.
English

@JohnJHarwood @zeteo_news This is particularly important for state and local elections. They are the ones that give him power to do silly things like declaring war for no reason. MAGA only has power thru the local repubs.
English

Trump's blasphemous attack on the Pope reminds us again:
The Republican Party has placed and empowered a destructive madman in the White House.
The only way Americans can limit the damage is to repudiate the Republican Party.

@JChrome19 @Vodalos @harryjsisson Actually that is not physically possible. But lots of catnaps are possible. Usually not good however during cabinet meetings and such. Also a sign of steep mental breakdown so don’t defend this too hard.
English

@Vodalos @harryjsisson Actually it's a fact that he does not sleep ever
English

Trump is having a mental health episode right now. He’s been posting on social media all night. He posted at:
9:49pm (Ai Jesus photo)
9:50pm (Trump tower on moon)
10:10pm (dumb meme)
10:32pm (news clip)
10:53pm (news clip)
12:43am (announcing Hormuz blockade)
2:35am (article about Biden)
2:36am (article on naval blockade)
2:37am (article on Rep. Swalwell)
2:37am (posted the same article about Biden again)
2:38am (article on his ballroom)
4:10am (article on Iran)
He’s not sleeping, he’s pretending to be Jesus, and he’s posting all night. He’s not well.
English

@JChrome19 @harryjsisson Every f…. Thing the does is contrary to what most normal people think and do. Blasphemy is not normal. Texting all night is not normal. Most of what he does is not normal.
English

@harryjsisson He never sleeps. You always think that, you're critical of every fucking thing he does in his life.
English

@AsteadWH @voxdotcom Everything vox. Too damn wordy. Real people don’t have time.
English

!!!! First day of our new podcast, America Actually (w/ Astead Herndon). It's going to be about the upcoming elections and America's road to a post-Trump future.
But as we got started I wanted to write something about why I landed on that theme and what I saw as the our mission in a landscape of a lot of media choices
English

@jessegolomb_ @binarybits I think it's entirely possible to be rigorous and skeptical without being reflexively adversarial.
English

@GeauxGabrielle Duh. Truth matters. Last minute charges with no apparent evidence would seem to suggest that we could have an issue of truth.
