In der Gospelschrift hat Jesus Menschen befreundet, die andere als Sünder genannt haben. Die einzigen Menschen in der Bibel, die Jesus verurteilt hat, waren religiöse Führer, die die Religion verursachten, um andere zu töten. Christen zu sein, ist um deinen Nachbarn zu lieben, nicht um LGBTQ-Menschen zu verurteilen.
Christen zu sein, ist um deinen Nachbarn zu lieben, nicht um schwere Frauen auf den Städten zu fangen. Being a Christian is about loving thy neighbor, not harassing librarians, silencing teachers and defunding our schools. I refuse to let Christian Nationalists twist a religion of love to justify their hate.
Yeah, my granddad was a Baptist preacher in South Texas. I've been going to the same church since I was two years old and I'm now in seminary studying to become a minister myself one day. So my faith means more to me than anything. But I believe that this bill is not only unconstitutional, un-American, but I also think it's deeply unchristian.
It not only violates the separation of church and state in this country, but it also violates the core teachings of Christianity. You know, the Apostle Paul said that the Ten Commandments are summed up in one command, love thy neighbor as thyself. Der hinduische Student, der in einem Texas-Publikumsschule sitzt, ist mein Nachbar.
Der sikhische Student, der buddhistische Student, der atheistische Student, der in einem Texas-Publikumsschule sitzt, ist mein Nachbar. Und ich bin gezwungen, sie als mich selbst zu lieben. Und meine Religion durch die Regierungen ist nicht Liebe.
You and perhaps the attorney general. The Justice Department recently received a criminal referral against New York Attorney General Tish James for fraud. We haven't heard much about it. You or the attorney general, give us an update as to what's going on with that investigation.
We do police Wall Street. And all that I can say is that we've been looking at a lot of this conduct at this point in time to determine whether or not it's actionable.
Oh, Ben, that's not fair. Come on. Listen, it's, well, I have to give him an A for coming in and renovating Penn Station. That's a good thing. And so I wish he would do more of that and then he and I would be of, you know, on common ground. So, yeah.
Definitely. Definitely. Now, I'm not sure about renaming it after him, but certainly renovating it is a great idea to save money for taxpayers in the great state of New York. But at the same time, one, he should understand and someone this is a teaching moment. And so I want to teach him about due process. which is in our Constitution, the federal Constitution, and the state Constitution.
And it entitles individuals to hearings before, in fact, they are convicted of any crimes, including but not limited to, individuals who are about to be deported. They are entitled to a hearing before an administrative judge or a judge of due course.
So it's important, President Trump, that you understand and recognize that because we realize that obviously you want to follow the law, but you have to exercise due process.
We've been busy. You know, this is not the outcome that we wanted. But this is the outcome that's before us. And so prior to Election Day, we decided to get ready. And so a number of Democratic attorneys general, we analyzed Project 2025 because that is his playbook, their playbook. We analyze jurisdiction and venue and standing and causes of actions and claims and defenses and our constitution.
And so on day one, the first EO regarding birthright citizenship, which, as you know, is in the 14th Amendment, within 48 hours, we responded. And we've responded ever since. As of right now, I have been involved in 15 lawsuits. We've led quite a few. amicus briefs, amici briefs. We've also issued guidance letters. We've done a number of Know Your Rights training courses and classes.
And we've responded to the fears and to the needs of New Yorkers, obviously, who are just concerned about all the chaos and confusion that they are witnessing, not only in New York, but across this state.
So he's going after Haitians and Venezuelans, individuals who fled violence, individuals who were victims of political prosecution, individuals who were just concerned about their own personal safety. And so they came to this country seeking temporary protective status. And now that program,
The president of the United States seeks to eliminate it, notwithstanding the fact that in Haiti, they are still in the midst of a civil war and countless number of individuals, unfortunately, are being subjected to violence. There are individuals, members of the LGBTQ community, Venezuelans and Haitians who are fleeing the country because they are being, you know,
There are individuals who have come to this country, obviously fleeing violence, looking for a better opportunity and just wanna be a part of the fabric of our country and wanna contribute so much to our country. But unfortunately right now, they're not going to school, they're not going to work, they're not going to our courthouses.
Individuals who have witnessed crimes, individuals who are victims of domestic violence are not going to our courts to get orders of protection. because they are fearful, fearful that they will be deported to a country that they do not know, a country which unfortunately, individuals that are in the midst of violence and disarray, and there's no infrastructure whatsoever.
And so it's really critically important that we put in place
There are individuals who are fleeing gangs, who do not want to be a part of gangs, and who need the protection of these United States because what they want to do is just contribute to the fabric of this country, contribute to the economy, work each and every day, go to church each and every day, want the same thing that you and I want, and that is to live in a community where they can uphold the law and respect all of the laws
