Echoing the teachings of Jesus and calling out Trump's cruelty, ignorance, and bigotry to his face, Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde delivers a sermon for the ages. Bishop Budde stared down authoritarian fascism and said 'Not today, motherfucker.' 😳👇

Immigration is not the reason that you can’t get a hospital appointment, it’s the reason you can get one.
Please repost for all the people who can’t seem to grasp that.

Left our child’s soft dog toy “Doug” at @premierinn Chessington. 💔 It may have ended up in the laundry managed by @ElisGroup. If anyone finds him, please DM! 🙏🏼 Sentimental value. #MissingToy #PremierInn #Chessington #HelpFindDoug

It’s so sad that it’s come to this, but we deserve so much better and it’s time we started challenging those at the top to do better!

I keep thinking how 3 little girls were killed & more were hurt & traumatised, & instead of talking about their precious lives, we are being forced to focus on violent entitled white men burning cars & towns, who don’t give a shit about women’s & girls’ safety.

A riot is not a protest.
A racist is not an activist.
A thug is not a patriot.
Far right extremism is precisely that.
Words matter.
Why are some in the media refusing to use them accurately?

BREAKING: Donald Trump gets devastating news as billionaire Mark Cuban and LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman join forces and unite over 100 venture capitalists to back Kamala Harris for president.
And it gets even better...
"We spend our days looking for, investing in and supporting entrepreneurs who are building the future," reads the "VCs for Kamala" website. "We are pro-business, pro-American dream, pro-entrepreneurship, and pro-technological progress."
"We also believe in democracy as the backbone of our nation," the site goes on. "We believe that strong, trustworthy institutions are a feature, not a bug, and that our industry — and every other industry — would collapse without them."
"That is what’s at stake in this election. Everything else, we can solve through constructive dialogue with political leaders and institutions willing to talk to us. In this pivotal moment, we are united in our support for Vice President Kamala Harris," it reads.
The announcement is a powerful rebuke to far-right Silicon Valley billionaires like Elon Musk who have thrown their support behind Donald Trump's fascist movement in the hopes of more tax cuts.
Please retweet and ❤️ to thank Mark Cuban and his allies for supporting Kamala — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a new pro-democracy social network that is exploding in popularity because Twitter and Facebook are trying to stop its growth — which is only making Tribel grow even faster.

A very soggy dog walk at low tide. When the tide is out, there's a lovely sandy beach! On a warm day it's great. Today was not that day! – at Sompting, England

And now, the end is near
The Tories face the final curtain
The exit poll made it clear
Conservative defeat is now certain
They've pinched a bucket-full
Left holes on each and every highway
And less, much less than this
They made their lies pay
Good days, they've had so few
But then again, too few to mention
Ignored what they had to do
Shirked responsibility without exception
They fought fake culture wars
Flogged infrastructure off to Huawei
And less, much less than this
They made their lies pay
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you'll mourn
Like the MP caught with tractor porn
After four leaders, left with just Rishi
Bets on the election all very fishy
You voted Labour, I've got a new neighbour
Time to do things my way!

When you vote today please remember that because of the Tories you:
• Wait longer for an ambulance
• Wait longer in A&E
• Wait longer for a cancer diagnosis
• Wait longer to see a GP
• Wait longer for specialist treatment
• Wait longer for mental health support

If you want to see Michelle Mone kicked out of the House of Lords and arrested until she pays the £232,000,000 she owes give this a RT.

A reminder that this is Conservative central office masquerading as an independent factcheck on Twitter tonight (they did the same thing in 2019).
Keir Starmer wants to talk about what he did before politics. He should tell the British people about the terrorist groups and hate preachers he defended.
Don't put Britain's national security in his hands. Don't let him surrender our borders.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The official Conservative Party Press Office is fraudulently posing as a fact checking service. It has form for this and also did so at the 2019 election. theguardian.com/politics/2019/…
