I believe that Christians like me—and people of faith more generally—have a responsibility to stand up to the extremists who use religion to divide our society and undermine our democracy.

Thanks to the efforts of @joaquincastrotx.bsky.social and other advocates, the boy in the blue bunny hat—five-year-old Liam Ramos—is home from ICE detention.
But hundreds of kids remain in facilities that are no place for children.
Release them all.

They’re taking children from Minnesota and locking them up like criminals in detention camps in Texas.
For the love of God, send our kids home and bring an end to this nightmare.

Cato Study: Immigrants Reduced Deficits by $14.5 Trillion Since 1994
The best way to balance the budget is to reduce spending—particularly on wealthy retirees—but rather than hinder our efforts to control deficits, immigrants are helping.

Immigrants:
📌Pay more in taxes and take fewer benefits
📌Work more, earn more than the average native-born worker
📌Cost less in retirement, they do not drain Social Security for decades
📌Barely touch welfare, there is no free ride
Undocumented immigrants alone saved $1.7 trillion.

Cato Institute just nuked the lie. Immigrants have cut U.S. deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994, slashing the national debt by a third.

“Abolish ICE” is not “defund the police” because the vast majority of the American people now know that ICE is the antithesis of law enforcement.

Naming someone is not doxxing. They aren’t undercover. They aren’t intelligence agents overseas. This is outrageous - we are supposed to be a free Republic and these people want an authoritarian police state. Lawsuits should be filed & ranking Dems in Congress should act.

I am not exaggerating when I say ICE functions as a terrorist organization in the Twin Cities. The goal seems to be to harass and frighten people (the ones who are lucky enough to not be abducted, at least) and it's deeply unsettling when you learn they're in your neighborhood.

Trump wants there to be violence, chaos and death on our streets. Because he believes it will help him politically. Pretty astounding thing to say about an American president, huh? But it’s true. He wanted Jan 6th to be violent because he wanted the election overturned. He wants violence on our streets in 2026 because he thinks it’ll help him win the midterms. Don’t give it to him.
