You can’t claim to be conservative while you liberally ignore what the Bible says about justice & mercy for immigrants. This isn’t Christian faith; it’s .

The problem isn’t that Trump wants to talk to America’s adversaries. We want leaders who would rather talk than shoot. But what Trump says is treasonous. It’s consistently isolationist & racist. It’s not that he’s talking, but what he’s saying.

This nation’s war on poverty should not only be concentrated on those who are unemployed or homeless; it should also be focused on those who are having to work 2, 3, or 4 jobs just to make ends meet.

“The Poor People's Campaign in Mississippi is a reaction...It's a reaction to decades of neglect, hunger, manipulation, disfranchisement and social asphyxiation that have made life as a poor person in America unbearable.”

The Caesars who ruined Rome imagined themselves to be gods, but the early church called leaders to serve humanity, stand for the poor & do justice.

If the US spent 4% of GDP on defense, that would amount to $775 billion—a more than $100 billion increase from current spending levels. That means we would dedicate almost 70% of all discretionary spending to the military. Enough! This is madness.
