I'm here. But I'm also there.

If America was actually a Christian nation we would be on the side of Gazans getting genocided. (Isa 1:17; Prov 31:8–9) If America was actually a Christian nation we would treat immigrants like our native born. (Lev 19:33–34) If America was actually a Christian nation we would rebuke the devil of white supremacy. (Gal 3:28; Jas 2:1–4) If America was actually a Christian nation we would not charge poor people interest according to Deut. (Deut 23:19–20; Exod 22:25) If America was actually a Christian nation, working class labor would be paid the same day they do the work according, (Deut 24:14–15; Jas 5:4) If America was a Christian Nation, @GuntherEagleman , It would be an equitable (Isa 58:6–7), Inclusive (Mic 6:8), and diverse nation. If America were a Christian nation it would be WOKE! Prove me wrong.
40 Days ago, Melissa and Mark Hortman were assassinated, along with their family dog, by a Trump obsessed MAGA man posing as an officer. We remember because the evil that led to this political assassination need us to forget. We hold on to truth because evil is built on lies. #WeHoldTheseTruths
39 days ago, MN Democratic elected official Melissa and Mark Hortman were killed by a Donald Trump supporter. The news cycle washed it away from our memories in days. MAGA tried to change the history and blame the other side. Hold on to the truth #WeHoldTheseTruths
37 day ago, a MAGA operative assassinated Democratic State Representative Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark, and their family dog. In normal times, we would still be recognizing this tragedy and grieving the things that led us to tragic murder. Instead, we've only seen the rhetoric ratchet up even further. .... Don't let them erase this from your memory. #WeHoldTheseTruths
34 Days ago, Melissa and Mark Hortman were assassinated by a dedicated Trump supporter. In normal times, the nation would have paused, collectively, to mourn. But not only has the news cycle moved on, MAGA has made collective mourning impossible through narrative inversion. #WeHoldTheseTruths
33 days go, Melissa and Mark Hortman -- along with their family dog -- were brutally assassinated by a devoted Trump supporter. The nation couldn't mourn because MAGA wouldn't allow it and the news cycle washed it away before the week was over. Some events must be remembered. (*Note: going forward, I will be remembering in this same thread a young man from Philly that needs to be remembered forever as well. He will be in the next reply. I will do my level best to remember each of these victims daily until something gives.) #WeHoldTheseTruths
32 days ago, a MAGA/Trump supporter assassinated State Rep. Melissa Hortman, her husband, Mark, and their family dog. Since then, MAGA has spread the lie that this assassination was carried out in connection with @GovTimWalz. The story has left the news, but the lie continues to this day. Don't let them rewrite history. #WeHoldTheseTruths
