US churches have hundreds of billions in untaxed assets, yet most won't give a can of formula for a starving infant.
churches should have to prove a majority of their income goes to charity, or be taxed.

US bishops officially ban gender-affirming care at Catholic hospitals U.S. Catholic bishops have voted to make official a ban on gender-affirming care for transgender patients at Catholic hospitals.

While the Pope meets with Trans folk in the love and acceptance of the Christ is, US bishops ban gender affirming care.

But we should have been really worried about Hi ter Biden, right??
Trumps have increased wealth by close to a billion a month.

increasing premiums IS kicking people off. for a large % of people on ACA- increased premiums mean no insurance.

Hey look. It’s the worst economy since the last time Trump was in office.

Probably just a coincidence

Because nothing says “you should feel free to come visit Washington” like standing in front of dozens of armed soldiers next to a guy who thinks women shouldn’t be able to vote 🙃

They fired the people answering calls for help. Hundreds of them. During the crisis.
