I’ve been reading Jon Fosse’s Septology this week on the beach and just now reached the first stopping point, finishing part one(of seven) on page 189. I don’t fully know what I’m reading but I can’t deny its beauty, profundity, and captivating language. #reading #literature

ICE is explicitly and exclusively an agency of human trafficking. Where is the evangelical outrage?
BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”
They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

Duffy is such a measly little beta. Grow up, cultists.
Duffy: "If you're liberal, they want you to take public transportation ... the problem is that it's dirty. You have criminals. It's homeless shelters. It's insane asylums. It's a work ground for the criminal element of the city to prey upon the good people."

This is far-right propaganda masquerading as journalism. Biden is an 82-year-old retiree who has no formal role in the Democratic Party. Meanwhile, the current president's brain continues to glitch over the word "groceries."

We do not worship a creature. Far be the thought. For such an error belongs to heathens and Arians. But we worship the Lord of Creation, Incarnate, the Word of God.

If Miller wants patriots, maybe he should expend energy to make the country something people can be proud of. Just a thought.
Stephen Miller: "Children will be taught to love America. Children will be taught to be patriots. Children will be taught civic values for schools that want federal taxpayer funding ... we're gonna make sure these funds are not being used to promote communist ideology."

I’m unsurprised (and happy) that Trump didn’t speak a word about Jesus — whom he doesn’t know. We need less presidential pretense towards Xianity. MAGA is an antichrist movement antithetical to the Christian gospel. But for him to fail to mention his family reveals the depth of misery in his soul.

If you need the State to tell you it’s acceptable to be a Christian in order to practice your faith, you’re probably not a Christian.
“The Trump administration has ordered State Department employees to report on any instances of coworkers displaying ‘anti-Christian bias’ as part of its effort to implement a sweeping new order on supporting employees of Christian faith.”
State tells employees to report on one another for ‘anti-Christian bias’
“It’s very ‘Handmaid’s Tale’-esque,” one official said.

I'm not going to stop saying this. We need to stop calling it "deporting." It may not always be fair or humane, but deportation has a process. And it means you're sent back to where you came from. These people are being trafficked and sold to slave prisons. Not deported.

Andrew obviously already is attracted to men (choosing pat downs? Come on, Freud), he just cannot admit it to himself, hence his crusade against homosexuality, which is at root a crusade of self-hatred.
Jackson County TN Christian nationalist Pastor Andrew Isker is apparently afraid that TSA scanners will make him become attracted to men - so he chooses a personal pat-down instead.
