Jesus was a refugee & did break the law. He was crucified as a felon under Roman law. Christian nationalists like @Paula_White are enabling injustice w/ biblical interpretations that echo #SlaveholderReligion. christianpost.com/news/paula-whi…
If we don’t help people name & condemn #SlaveholderReligion, they are left to believe this is the teaching of the church. Trump & the GOP have elevated Christian nationalism to a place where many confuse it w/ orthodox faith. ivpress.com/Media/Default/…
I’m prayerfully joining @liztheo, @holynerd & @wilsonhartgrove to challenge Trumpvangelicals to a public conversation about what the Bible really says. medium.com/brepairers/the…

Do the women of America—black, white or brown; Republican or Democrat—know about the lawyer connected to white supremacy who Trump nominated for the federal court in NC & McConnell has scheduled for vote next week?
This is the longest judicial vacancy in the federal court system. President Obama tried to integrate this court by nominating 2 superbly qualified African-American women.
In 2013, Obama nominated North Carolina federal prosecutor Jennifer May-Parker, who served under both Republican and Democratic presidents. But NC Sen Richard Burr refused to return his blue-slip, despite his previous recommendation of May-Parker for the position.

Death is hard for families. Death is especially hard for families of celebrities b/c they have to share their loved one in death & in life. Let’s pray for Areatha’s family. The hope always is that a funeral service can be healing & comforting, not hurtful & confusing.
freep.com/story/entertai…
Beyond the funeral, we remember Aretha loving as she fought for civil rights & voting rights. The greatest flattery is imitation. Let us get as many people as we can to imitate Aretha by getting registered & voting in November. Let’s demand RESPECT at the ballot box.

In this season when high profile people like Aretha Franklin & John McCain have passed from cancer, let us be reminded why all of us, from the poorest to the richest, should have universal health care. Let us hold their families in prayer.
Let us remember them not in some pristine fantasy that we often create when people die, but let us remember their entire lives—the good & the bad, faith and faults—that we might learn & grow from their living.
Let us love them for all they were & forgive them for all they were not. And in remembering them, may we remember our own mortality so that we number our days & be the best we can in service to God & humanity.

1-The Rothschilds, the bloodline, Soros and all key actors of the Cabal R NOT JEWS. They R Khazarian. Khazarians R the oldest Jew haters in the world. They are a tribe of old Jews who established their own doctrine secretly & separated from the main body. The R infiltrators.
2-To know their history read RING OF THE CABAL but to put it brief & simple; they are ppl behind the biggest pro-Palestine & anti-Isreal organizations. They overthrow the government of Iran in 1978 & created the anti-Jew movement in the middle east. They pay Iran.
.3-Khazarians partnered with Jesuits & established the anti-Isreal resolutions bought the UN & turned it in2 a pro-Palestine operation unite. They empowered CAIR & MB as their proxy. Linda Sarsour from CAIR works 4 Soros. They export Islam. Huma Abedin from MB hired by Soros

753 BCE: A little town called #ROME is founded on the banks of the Tiber in #Italy. It will invent the word Emperor & become the standard for all future western empires. Its language is still used on the seal of the American President, along w/ its symbol of the Eagle. (2/21)
387 BCE: Plato founds his Academy for philosophy in #Athens. In between bouts of mansplaining & homoeroticism they trailblaze the concept of using logic & reason to make sense of the world & develop tools for doing so we still use today. (3/21)

With yet another tragic mass shooting, the #GunControl debate will yet again take center stage.

One reason for the intractable nature of this debate? Deeply held moral & religious schemas like Christian nationalism. 1/8

@LandonSchnabel @PaulHRosenberg @jackmjenkins @JackSmithIV
Our working paper shows that Americans who mandate a close, symbiotic relationship btw Christianity & civil society are deeply opposed to federal gun control legislation. 2/8

Find the working paper here: osf.io/preprints/soca…
@socarxiv
Understanding Christian nationalism, as a particular religio-cultural style, is important to understanding opposition to gun control.

Gun rights, according to the Christian nationalism framework, are a God-given right. The US Constitution & 2nd Amendment are God-inspired. 3/8

never did any actual, real live lobbying for Turkey or Russia.

He just merely....

1) Created a lobbying group, The Flynn Group
2) Accepted contracts from Turkey & Russia
3) Accepted payment for lobbying

You can do all 3 of those things & NOT break the law.
Not until you actually ACT on behalf of a foreign client by engaging in real live lobbying have you committed a crime if you did not register as a foreign agent under the FARA act.
Paul Manafort was charged for FARA violations.

So was his business partner, Rick Page.

You know who HASN'T been indicted for any FARA related shenanigans?

General Michael Flynn, that's who.
