He lost the 2020 election. He knew it. He lied about it. And now he’s demanding your money because knowingly lying didn’t make him President.
Trump: "It's awfully strange to make a decision where I'm paying myself. But I was damaged very greatly and any money I would get I would give to charity."

This is a really good read.
Doug Wilson's "reign of terror" (spank for every infraction with no warning) came to mind when I listened to
Pete Hegseth's speech last week.
Hegseth underscored violence, external compliance & "FAFO" energy as markers of strength & winning-ness. 🧵 Full post: open.substack.com/pub/mburtwri...

Over and over again Trump tells us that he thinks the Nazis were the good guys in the story.
MERZ: Tomorrow is the D Day anniversary, when the Americans ended a war in Europe
TRUMP: That was not a pleasant day for you? This is not a great day
MERZ: This was the liberation of my country from Nazi dictatorship

I’m still processing what we saw in the Oval Office and it’s difficult to put into words how disgusted and ashamed I am.
This was a coordinated assault on an ally to benefit a dictator and authoritarian regime. Trump and Vance aren’t just Putin’s puppets, they’re his assets.

This is true. We are responsible for our government & if we can’t stop it we can at least stand plainly on the side of truth. Putin is a dangerous & violent dictator. Trump is his wannabe. Zelensky is a hero & the Ukrainians can be proud of their leader while Americans are shamed. Slava Ukraini.
It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up.

If I had to come up with a Top 10 Works of Art in Church History, this illumination from the 15th c. Besançon Book of Hours showing the Nativity with Virgin Mary reading, while Joseph cradles the Child, would surely make that list. Talk about role reversals.
Mad props to the artist who made it.
