"A survey released Tuesday (Oct. 20) found that Republicans and evangelicals increasingly see empathy as a danger that can lead society away from God." religionnews.com/2026/10/20/a...

A chart showing how different religious groups responded to a question about empathy on a poll.

White evangelicals stand out, with 54% saying they believe empathy "can become dangerous when it leads people away from building a society guided by God's truth."

Ricardo Gonzalez, a 40-year-old U.S. citizen, was riding his e-bike in Long Beach, California, when ICE agents struck him with an unmarked vehicle and tased him twice. ICE thought he was someone else.

In a classified briefing, a DoD official revealed to Senators how much Iranian attacks on U.S. bases have cost us. Now, I'm calling for the DoD to make that number public. Americans deserve to know how much of their money is being burned on Trump's war with Iran.

That's all it takes to hear a certain guitar! Nicely played.

Yep. Many Christians seem to think that any other person of a differing faith is destined to burn in Hell. In reality, many of those others are far more willing to help someone in need than a fake-ass, MAGA, Christian-in-name-only douchebag.

President Trump wants to soften one of the strongest legal protections American workers have: the right to hold an employer accountable when retirement savings are mishandled.

Darlene Graham is such a weak and useless Trump puppet that she can’t even defend the Lindsey O. Graham Russia Sanctions Act. She has zero thought or independence on anything policy or political. She was appointed to follow Trump’s every order and that’s exactly what she’s doing.

ICE just tried to kidnap a US BORN CITIZEN in Long Beach. The neighborhood blocked them in and didn’t let them take her away! She was able to escape, thanks to her community. FUCK THESE LOSERS, THEYRE SCARED OF US. STAY ALERT, STAY ARMED, STAY READY.

It’s amazing how angry MAGA is about today’s No Kings events, where people showed up and encouraged others to vote.

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

PLUS … this POS crippled Ukraine’s vital Starshield service with NO warning to Kyiv 🇺🇦

If you can hoard a trillion dollars while children starve, you are not a visionary. You are a moral failure.

Ossoff: "Tech titans dig bunkers while warning us the AI they're creating risks human extinction. Meanwhile, our Congress debates youth sports and the president builds a ballroom ... I refuse to leave my girls a world as dark and dangerous and cruel as this one threatens to become"
