Karen Bass in 2010 at a ribbon-cutting for a Scientology church: "That is why the words are exciting of your Founder L. Rob Hubbard...The Church of Scientology I know has made a difference, because your creed is a universal creed and one that speaks to all people everywhere"

Scientology is really bad. They aren’t just kooks, they’ve really hurt people. I don’t want anyone quack-adjacent in the WH. No anti-vaxxers, no QAnon. Democrats need to institute zero-tolerance on this. We’ve already lost one party to it.

I mean I get it 100%. But we also did just nominate a guy who eulogized storm Thurmond who ran for president on a racial segregation, but we forgave Biden (rightfully so!) just seems like we don’t extend the same forgiveness to women, especially someone as legit badass as bass

Maybe if I were totally sold on Bass I’d dismiss it, but it just feels different to me. This isn’t controversial, it’s nutty, and I feel like that’s much worse. We need to stop tolerating ppl like Marianne Williamson. We have an epidemic of crazy in this country.

We need to stop “tolerating people like Marianne Williamson” ??? What we need to stop “tolerating” is self-righteous, ignorant, condescending, bigoted commentary by someone who would casually mock someone who they clearly know nothing about.

Do you just sit around searching your name being mentioned? That's a serious bummer.

No, but people send me things & I don’t not respond anymore. AOC had something to do with that, actually. She’s very inspiring that way. She responds to really hateful stuff & at this point I think every woman should. Letting bullshit stay in the air doesn’t always dissolve it.

AOC does not go hunting on Twitter for people who don’t like her. That’s ridiculous. You’re just being petty and embarrassing yourself.

Come on now. Look, I'm a nothing and a nobody and don't have time for this today. It was a comment on a comment on a comment that had like five likes at the time. You can lie to me, and you can lie to the people, but don't lie to Marianne, Marianne.
