Sunday sermon:
Pete Hegseth’s “warrior Christianity” is morally bankrupt and fake. It can’t prepare, protect, or heal our troops.
Our troops desperately need chaplains who understand moral injury and PTSD, not TV tough guys sneering at being human.

If you were a member of the press what questions would you ask Melania Trump about this #ICELawlessness?
What about Karoline Leavitt?
Or Trump himself?
Help out the reporters because they are clearly perplexed as to how to formulate questions on these atrocities!
We cannot be silent about this!

The original Dem demands were:
1) Permanent ACA subsidies
2) Medicaid funding restored
3) No more blank checks for the regime (rescission)
They dropped Medicaid immediately. Went silent on rescission. Cut back to 1 year of subsidies on Friday. And surrendered today.

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

“An unforgivable moral atrocity” is exactly right
The elimination of USAID was an unforgivable moral atrocity that should haunt Trump, Elon Musk and Marco Rubio for the rest of their days and beyond
One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

That theory is wildly wrong (a VP candidate has to be eligible to become president) but why are you tossing him suggestions for how he can violate the Constitution?

Q: One theory on how you might try to serve a 3rd term is that you could run at the vice president
TRUMP: Yeah, I'd be allowed to do that. But I would rule that out because it's too cute.
