More than 1,000 faith leaders endorse Harris
More than a thousand religious leaders endorsed Kamala Harris on Sunday, bolstering the Democratic presidential nominee’s push to emphasize how faith is informing her campaign ahead of next week’s election.
You're viewing a single thread.
I’d prefer they all stay out of politics, entirely.
Any political endorsement should automatically strip their tax-free status, while simultaneously initiating an IRS audit.
All hands on deck against the nazis. If someone punched my grandma and then denounced trump, I'd join hands with them for this election.
My grandma is a huge bitch though.
Or if they did ... just pay taxes like everyone else.
If you're going to have a big opinion about politics and start acting like a political organization and influencing politics ... I don't mind, just pay taxes.
Agreed. And stop getting free tax money.
Standing up to a fascist dictator is up to everyone.
I mean... yeah, ofc, but that ship has sailed, and I for one hope that this message gets spread far and wide, to help counteract the message being preached from the literal and actual pulpit in America that a vote for Trump = a vote for God.
Also, as we could have guessed, this is an enormously clickbaity "news" title, as this excerpt explains:
“In a moment like this, I am compelled to be clear that every voter must make a choice, and my choice is to oppose the dangerous politics that (Donald) Trump and the MAGA movement have unleashed by supporting the ticket that can defeat this potential for American fascism,” Barber said in a statement to CNN, while stressing that he was backing Harris in his personal capacity.
In their personal capacity they are endorsing Harris, but in their professional (or whatever that word should be to mean non-personal) capacity they are only endorsing "not-Trump". As it should be.
Edit: which reminds me that I wanted to block this community - that issue of EXTREMELY misleading headlines (especially those that mean the precise polar opposite of what a natural interpretation of the sentence would seem to indicate) comes up FAR too often here for my tastes. !globalnews@lemmy.zip significantly cleans up such trash by limiting what is allowed to be shared.
