British democracy: Where our parliamentary representatives get about five minutes per life-ruining, justice-denying, cruel, ineffective, barbaric measure in the #AntiRefugeeBill.

He begins by promoting that people in power are ordained by Jesus to wield power.
Then, rather than praying for the victims and survivors of the Pittsburgh synagogue attack, Mike Pence's Christian Rabbi prays --by name-- for each Republican candidate on a list given to him.
