When a Jesuit priest calls you out...
In its simplest terms, the apparent demise of #USAID is the result of the world's richest man ending a program that helps millions of poor people. You don't need a Ph.D. in moral theology to see why this is an evil. You can just read Jesus's parables on the rich and the poor.

Looks like I’ve picked up a few new followers… so I need to be clear on something:
I do *NOT* condone gunning down CEOs of health insurance companies. However, I am also not going to lose sleep over the death of someone who, through their job, enriched investors by denying medically necessary care.

Breaking news: Senate Republicans chose Sen. John Thune of South Dakota to be their new leader, rejecting an outside pressure campaign from Donald Trump’s allies to break with the establishment in the secret-ballot election.
Senate Republicans choose John Thune to replace Mitch McConnell as majority leader
