Join me tonight as I formally announce my candidacy for the Democratic nomination for president. Live in Los Angeles, the Saban Theatre 8440 Wilshire Blvd. 7:30PM
Together we can embark on an extraordinary adventure. We can show up for our country in a way we have never shown up before. And with Gods help, we can create miracles.
Hard pass.

(40,211 posts)Williamson preaches about believing in Miracles, or something like that. I saw her on Oprah a zillion years ago. I can't believe she is still around. Her brand of bullshit was figured out a long time ago.

New-age mumbo-jumbo at its finest.

Nothing wrong with her positions but the God and miracles stuff makes my skin crawl.
