If he gets excommunicated I will piss myself laughing. Get his ass, Pope Woke.

Popes really seem to be building up a doctrine of “the Bible says you have to hate JD Vance specifically.”

why would he come for online trads like this

In recent years, many young people have approached the faith through social media, successful programs and popular online Christian witnesses. The danger is that a faith discovered online is limited to individual experiences, which may be intellectually and emotionally reassuring, but never “embodied.” Such experiences remain “disembodied,” detached from the “ecclesial body.”

A digital illustration in a fairly loose painterly style of a street pigeon tailing flight with a slice of pizza clapped in their little grabbers. Hand drawn typewriter-style lettering around the pigeon reads ‘Maybe it will happen today’.

It's low-hanging fruit lib posting but it's a hell of a thing to juxtapose the President and his supporters' priorities here

Note: while not unprecedented, it’s actually pretty rare for a sitting Catholic bishop to participate in a demonstration. It’s just not generally what Catholic bishops do.

Thus: Getting the hierarchy involved in this protest outside an ICE facility is no small thing.

Chicago Auxiliary Bishop José María Garcia-Maldonado at ICE detention facility: “Being here is an act of holiness…soon we will seek access to the facility to bring the Eucharist to our brothers and sisters; if they say no again, we will keep praying.”

The effectual truth of “don’t tread on me” is “do tread on them.”

Everything the “don’t tread on me” folks claimed to care about is being done by the people they now blindly support

Another Blue State liberal checking in to say that a fair few of my fellow Nutmeggers are Trumpy assholes. Like, full on cult members. Flags, signs, obnoxious bumper stickers. I don’t have to travel to East of Nowhere, Kansas to find them.

Every time you see a story of comically transparent corruption among Trump's immediate family, a cold shiver should shoot through you.

Trump will *never* accede to a situation where accountability for his or his family's ill-gotten gains is possible. Dictatorship to protect corruption is the agenda

Kevin Elliott @kjephd.bsky.social · 8h

This is exactly right, with one addition to the end:

Trump wants to have the unconstrained ability to use lethal militarized force against Americans to make sure he never has to give up power—so that the corrupt enrichment & rank criminality of him, his family, & his cronies goes forever unpunished

I've given my new Senator a lot of shit on here. But I don't think anyone with power has laid out the stakes of what we're facing as clearly as she does right here.

And if she's saying this, it's because she feels she must.

i genuinely cannot stand actual european elites condescendingly explaining american public opinion to americans. reminds me of when some british lady IRL tried to tell me she understood southerners better than i ever could, a southerner who lives in the south.

The educated liberal big city US folks outraged at Trump's renovation of Lincoln bathroom really need to scroll some Facebook of their less established relatives and friends to see what kind of aesthetic resonates with Trump's target audience.
