The Epstein files includes statements from women stating that Trump forced them into sex acts and threatened them when they were minors, 13-years-old in a few cases. A statement is not the same as a conviction, of course, but why is it that so few people know this? Why is it not being reported?
Fair?
“I’m not anti-French, I just oppose the existence of France.” Do you see why that sounds weird?
Paradoxically, he is the exact image of what MAGA thinks DEI means — a guy who could not possibly be considered qualified for his job except for his gender and race.
I think every organization should award a Peace Prize. Given my level of patronage, I would like to nominate myself for the Dunkin’ Donuts Peace Prize and the Tropical Smoothie Peace Prize. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

On this Thanksgiving, it seems worth remembering that Jews are an indigenous people of Israel/Palestine, but that everyone in the Americas who is not a Native American is part of a colonial settler state. Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃
Attacking people for saying, “Don’t follow illegal orders,” makes you look guilty as hell. How is it that anyone doesn’t see that?
Were you somehow hoping that the people who voted for him knowing that he was a convicted criminal would care when they found out that he was also a pedophile?
We, like the trees, are sustained by the insubstantial and our lives are built out of thin air.
Sermon for Kol Nidre.
“What rabbinic Judaism did 1,500 years ago is what we should be doing now – recognizing that people are different. All human beings should be allowed to be who they are – and not be beholden to somebody else’s idea of who they should be.”
You want to stand with the Palestinian people? Stand with the Palestinians who risk their lives by standing against the death-loving, theocratic cult of Hamas.

Just a question here. If Pope Leo XIV were a student in a Florida classroom, would his teachers be legally required to call him by the name on his birth certificate if they didn’t have written permission from his parents to call him by his papal name?
Chag sameach. Let all who are hungry come and eat!
I spoke at the press conference of the RI Predatory Lending Reform Coalition. The GA must close the loophole that lets storefront payday lenders target and ensnare Rhode Islanders — many consumers of color — in cycles of debt. My part starts at 30:00. capitoltvri.cablecast.tv/show/11117?s...

Donald Trump was famous for saying, “You’re fired!” as a tv reality show personality, but he doesn’t have the guts to fire a Secretary of Defense who compromised national security by sharing classified information on a platform specifically prohibited by a longstanding DoD policy.
“What’s the name of the holiday when you take down the last of the Hanukkah decorations?“
“President’s Day.“
(Joke, not a joke).
Your government is being dismantled, piece by piece. It is being bled to death. This is not what the Framers had in mind when they charged the Executive Branch with the duty to “faithfully execute” the law.
President Trump’s call for the U.S. to “take over the Gaza Strip” is a disaster for Israel. It threatens the hostages, sets up generations of violence and war, and is an unambiguous threat of war crimes. The Jewish community must speak loudly against such an outrage being committed in our name.
My friend, Rabbi Barry Block, had this bumper sticker stolen off his car by someone who also left a nasty note. I ordered four of them, one for each member of my family. You can, too, at: ncjw.myshopify.com/products/car...
For his first significant act on food prices, President Trump just raised the price of coffee.
The release of those murderers is a disaster for the Palestinian people. They will surely plan more attacks on Israel that will result in loss of life — Israeli and far more Palestinian. The Palestinian people should mourn the release of those murderers in a deal negotiated for them by murderers.2/2
I support the deal to let the hostages come home, grateful they will finally be reunited with their loved ones. This despite the fact that it will require the release of hundreds of convicted murders. 1/2
On the first day of the GA’s 2025 session, the RI Interfaith Coalition to Reduce Poverty held the annual Fighting Poverty with Faith Vigil at the State House. Thank you to all the amazing faith leaders who blessed our elected officials and challenged them to govern with wisdom, care and compassion.
