A (very incomplete) thread of foolish, unethical, un-American, and/or illegal things @realDonaldTrump asked us to do during my tenure...to which the only appropriate response was, “NO.” (1 of 25)

“The whole Bible supports the idea. God is speaking. Not God spoke, but God is speaking. He is by His nature continuously articulate. He fills the world with His speaking Voice. One of the great realities with which we have to deal is the Voice of God in His world.” - A.W. Tozer

2019 study: Residents of entirely-black neighborhoods waited 29 percent longer to vote and were 74 percent more likely to spend more than 30 minutes voting.
Race is one of the strongest predictors of how long a person waits in line to vote, research shows. nbcnews.to/3jUKkM6

They murdered Daniel Prude.
His brother called the cops to protect Daniel.
He was having a moment.
Cops didn't protect him.
Cops killed him.
Suffocated him.
Put a hood over his head, to hide theirs.
They murdered him.
On camera.
They murdered his Black body on camera.

The really terrible thing, old buddy, is that you must accept them. And I mean that very seriously. You must accept them and accept them with love. For these innocent people have no other hope. They are, in effect, still trapped in a history which they do not understand;

I know many Christians who’s attitude towards alcohol is — it’s not a sin, partaking is fine but you must be hyper vigilant lest it take hold of and control you.
And this makes it easy for me to explain how I feel about patriotism.

It is so cruel and unjust, such an indictment on America and this nation’s history and present, that #ElijahMcClain is dead.
It shouldn’t even have taken 2 million signatures for his death to be “reexamined.”
Truth is, the police shouldn’t have killed him.

Amid America's #COVID19 disaster, I must come clean about a lie I spread as a health insurance exec: We spent big $$ to push the idea that Canada's single-payer system was awful & the U.S. system much better. It was a lie & the nations' COVID responses prove it. The truth: (1/6)

Fired officers getting reinstated. It’s in the police union contract. Paid leave for officers who kill people. Police union contract. Misconduct records getting destroyed every 2-5 years. Police budgets getting increased year over year. It’s all in the police union contract.

I made something for people trying to go inward and do reflections on how racism was nurtured and formed in YOU. Pretending it’s not there is a horrible taskmaster. Unearthing, discovering, admitting and repenting is freedom in every sense of the word. docs.google.com/document/d/1…

Deep seeded and longstanding hatred of even black children reveals 2 things
(1) prolife political movement is a farce rooted in numbing consciences that seek White dominance
(2) exposes the hedonistic notion of white innocence that places itself above a child trying to learn

White supremacy is so idiotic and vile that it believes a statue of Arthur Ashe is comparable to the racist and moral deficiency of confederate monuments.
I've been pushing back on the dangers of asinine false equivalencies.
Black dignity is not the same as white supremacy.

On this day in 1944, George Stinney Jr., a ninety-pound, Black, fourteen-year-old boy, was executed in the electric chair in Columbia, South Carolina. To overcome racial inequality, we must confront our history. Share this #racialinjustice calendar.eji.org/racial-inju…
