There’s a young southern woman on tt doing an experiment: calling churches & asking if they can help her get baby formula, saying she can’t afford it. Of the 30+ she’s called, nearly every church has said no. The ones who said yes were:
Black Baptist Churches

As great as the results are, I am not thrilled about the back-patting which Dem party leadership will do next, as if they had done anything to deserve it. Today represents a rejection of Trump and MAGA horrors, not a run towards the Dem party as supporters of the working class and social welfare.

Trump calls for deporting US citizens: "We also have a lot of bad people that have been here for a long time ... many of them were born in our country. I think we ought to get them the hell out of here too, if you want to know the truth. So maybe that'll be the next job."
