I am a liberal pastor with 30+ years of ordained ministry. I was taught by my father to be compassionate and by my mother to see good in others. I love to read and write and cook. BTW, I feel that being called "woke" is a compliment.

Markwayne Mullin is a knuckleheaded plumber and the only Senator not to have a bachelors degree. Republicans in the Senate confirming the Mullin appointment to run Homeland Security will show their usual disregard for the well-being of the citizens of this country while blindly pleasing Trump.

This is what an elected official should look like, @crockett.house.gov thank you for your grace, passion and commitment to America. You are a class act.

Jasmine Crockett and James Talarico were BOTH incredible candidates yesterday. They are BOTH great candidates tomorrow. Lot of understandable emotions today..

The Winter Olympics start today, and we will feel pride and honor for our country.

But when we see our criminal, delusional, President, we feel none of those things.

I’ve faced off with him before, and now I’m ready to take him on in Congress.

Amen. The man has always been a racist. He is consumed by hate.

I am really trying to have sympathy. No one should not be stiffed for a job they do. Nevertheless, what the hell did they expect? Nothing this president does (or doesn't do) should be surprising. He just doesn't care about anyone but himself. That is the nature of a sociopath.

Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientistβ€”because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

As a progressive minister, I make it a practice not to weigh in on someone else's salvation. I will say, however, that it is hard to believe that someone who has committed so much of his life focused on making others' lives living hell would not experience the same himself.

Quote from Trump just minutes ago:

"The Republicans should say, we should take over the voting in at least 15 places.... The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting."

In modern history, there's never been a bigger threat to our Constitution and our way of life than and his enablers.

It is hard to believe that this deranged mush mouth is considered by all media as "more professional." How ridiculous is it that he is giving any creditability at all. He should have been fired a long time ago.

The reality that these idiots continue to post like this because they think they are actually responding to Liam Neeson is hilarious. What? They think that he can't spell his own name? Ignorance in our country has reached and absurd level among some people.

On the plus side, at least she's not shooting them.
