Nov 22, 2020:
I recollect hearing as far as back when I was a kid about the Israelites making a golden calf in order to worship it. The message was always that God had commanded that we should not worship any graven image. And then having the idea reinforced by the Charlton Heston movie "Ten Commandments" which, back in the day was a yearly TV event usually played around Easter.
No big deal, on my part, as I always thought I would not ever see any logical reason to worship anything made out of any kind of metal. However, now in retrospect, I realize I have worshipped the "golden image" many times in my life. I was enlightened recently through a 1956 book I have in my personal library called "Bible Fires - Messages on Bible Characters" written by Robert G. Lee (Zondervan Press). At a closer look it does seem pretty odd that these people who had seen such great signs and miracles by God would suddenly dump Him in exchange for a golden calf. But...that was not the message. As Lee writes "Looking upon this golden calf the people said (shouting, I think): "These be thy gods, O Israel!" Rather, thy god....the golden calf gave them false and belittling ideas of God...and thus decreased their faith and hope in Him. .....God was still to be worshipped but in the form of a calf."
Ouch. I have many times experienced the miracles and touch of God in my life...but when things got tough or God seemed far away....I have been very guilty of trading in the real God for an image that made more sense at the time. "So," continues Lee, "the sin of the people was not in a breach of the First but of the Second commandment." They did not wish to repudiate God but simply to worship Him under the similitude of a calf." It was through this initial effort that their morals began to crumble and they began a festival of celebration marked by adultery, drunkenness, and fornication (to name a few things) all while believing they were worshipping God when, in truth, they were worshipping an image of God they had created. It was only through the intervention and pleading of Moses to God on their behalf that He did not destroy them. Shortly after that Aaron's sons were killed for offering a strange fire to the Lord. Aaron was complicit with the creation of the golden calf...and this was something his sons were likely to have been observing. The father is a powerful force and energy in any child's life.
Always seek the God who is there and not the God we want to be there. They are not always the same and one not always real.

Nov 20, 2020: John Pavlovitch: Dear Judas, (A Letter to the Evangelical Church)
Your thirty pieces of silver were these last four years,
some Supreme Court Justices,
a couple hundred of lower court judges,
the temporary high of a few political wins,
the bully pulpit of a President’s Twitter feed for forty-eight months,
and perhaps soon, a woman’s right to autonomy over her own body.

For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. -2 Tim 4: 3-4

I seek the X-rated Truth about God
Preachers should rate their sermons like the movies so that people will know what to expect. A G rating would be "generally acceptable" to everyone." G-rated sermons are filled with such cream-of-wheat platitudes as " Go ye into the world and smile." Congregations call them "wonderful" and "marvelous."
GP-rated sermons are for more mature congregations. They mildly suggest change, but use big words and are subtle enough to allow the preacher to retract if he's challenged. These sermons elicit the response "deep" or "thought-provoking."
R-rated sermons mean "restricted to those who aren't upset by the truth." No big words here. The preacher tells it like it is. The preacher of R-rated sermons usually has an outside source of income. The congregation labels these sermons "disturbing" or "controversial."
X-rated sermons are absolutely limited to those who can tolerate having their minds renovated. They're sermons that landed Jeremiah in the well and got Stephen stoned. They're called "shocking," "disgraceful," "totally unacceptable." The preacher that preaches these may not have a church and if he does, it may not be for long. He relies on God instead of offerings.
The truth about God's nature is X-rated. Its so out of sync with the human mindset that its almost seems impossible to accept. Even those biblical heroes who were first given the scoop couldn't believe it. They kept second guessing it and doubting its validity.

Watching Rudy Giuliani connect the voting dots to "steal" the election all the way to Hugo Chavez was like watching an Abbott and Costello movie (with Giuliani playing both parts)..
He did not reveal other problems that he said was on affidavits that he wouldnt show. Based on the logic of Trump's crack lawyer team here are a few possibilities:
👉Robert Deniro played Vito Corleone in The Godfather II. The movie played in theaters back in 1974 including in Michigan. Godfather II was released on VHS and then on DVD. Both versions are for sale in Michigan. Some of the election staff have seen the movie on TV or DVD. They know that DeNiro does not like Trump so the fix was in.
👉Gavin Newsom is the governor of California. California is next to Nevada which is next to Utah which is next to Colorado which is next to Kansas which is next to Missouri which is next to Indiana which is next to Ohio. Ohio is next to both Michigan AND Pennsylvania. Election workers new this so the fix was in.
👉Justin Trudeau. When Trump visited Canada with his wife Melania, there is video of Melania and Justin smiling at each other. Dominion Voting Systems is Canada’s largest election system provider. Trudeau got ahold of Hugo Chavez and together they co-opted to get Trump unelected to free Melania. The fix was in.

Went to the supermarket & tried to pardon a frozen turkey. Poor guy just stood there, obviously overcome with the concept of freedom.😎
"Trump’s character flaws obviously have an effect on policy decisions, but they also send a terrible signal to the rest of the world — not to mention to young Americans growing up in the era of Trumpism. Hence, in addition to normal concerns about domestic and foreign policy, it felt to many of us that, as President-elect Biden often put it, the “soul of America” was at stake. No wonder that Biden’s victory has brought a tremendous sigh of relief, and even tears of joy, to many people in America and around the world." -Tyler Paytas 11.13.20 (ABC Religion & Ethics/Australia)

Sen Tom Cotton complained last week that Twitter banned a government acct for tweeting out information about security and illegal immigration. Acting Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security Chad Wolf said the censorship is a "threat to security. " Huh?? My question would be why would Homeland Security be using Twitter as a venue for sharing security information to begin with??
Far right wing conspiracy pusher Candace Owens is suing FaceBook. She says its because she keeps getting "Fact Checked" by them . The reason for the 2nd sentence is in the 1st sentence. I presume she'll ask for a jury trial so that when her suit fails she can ask for a recount.
While Covid-45 death toll reaches 242,000, Trump is out tweeting conspiracy theories and other nonsense.
On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, did we not declare Trump would win a second term, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’ (paraphrase, mine)
😳I started out as a Democrat, became a Republican, (Libertarian for short time in Colorado Springs). Mostly been a Republican. Though I am not on board with all Democrat ideas, I will say that right now The Democrats are the party thats not lying to their own country right now.....in fact, Republicans are still lying to themselves, also.😳🤒

Nov 12, 2020: A Clear Lens: The Gospel Is the Justice Liberals Are Looking For
Why Amos? Amos is a remarkable book for a few reasons. The book’s central theme is justice, and Amos is very hard on leadership in both halves of the divided kingdom. Not only that, but the specific motifs of justice are particularly appropriate for the things that political liberals talk about the most.

Donald Trump, Queen Elizabeth, and Vladimir Putin all die and end up in hell. While there, they spy a red phone and ask what the phone is for. The devil tells them it is for calling back to Earth.
Putin asks to call Russia and talks for 5 minutes.. When he is finished the devil informs him that the cost is a million dollars, so Putin writes him a check.
Next Queen Elizabeth calls England and talks for 30 minutes. When she is finished the devil informs her that the cost is 6 million dollars, so she writes him a check.
Finally Donald Trump, who had not finished his term, gets his turn and talks for 4 hours. When he is finished the devil informs him that the cost is $5.00.
When Putin hears this he goes ballistic and asks the devil why Trump got to call the USA so cheaply.
The devil smiles and replies, " Since Trump took over , the country has gone to hell, so it's a local call."😉

🙏-My Sunday Morning Contemplations-🙏
👉With few exceptions, evangelical churches and leadership have lost their way. They have allowed politics and American capitalism to pollute their message of the gospel. Paul wrote: "You ran well. Who hindered you from obeying the truth? This persuasion does not come from Him who calls you. A little leaven leavens the whole lump."
Capitalism and politics have their place but not before the message of Jesus Christ. Evangelicals that have lost their way need to return to their first love...because leaving your first love has tragic consequences (see Revelation 2),. The message of Jesus Christ is simple.
👉I was hesitant to use any names, but I have to on this one: Trump evangelicals have especially made Christianity into a message of hate and discord.,,,while at the same time waving their emblems of Christianity and "love". What a horrible confused message they send. And all at the altar of Donald Trump, a guy who has already stated that he has never had to ask for forgiveness, for anything.
Over the years right wing politics has become a centerpiece of action and teachings in way too many evangelical church services and activities. And I can attest to that as a former "right winger" who use to seek out churches who would satisfy my spiritual and political pallette. The fruit of that is now being declared and ridiculed across the nation and even the world and, really, there is no way to defend it. The ones who try to justify it just entrench themselves in deeper holes for themselves and become essentially like a cartoon character.
👉 I don't believe God is going to allow it much longer. The time for judgment will begin with God's household. It always has and always will. Seek God first and foremost. If you think politics is the answer to all the problems in the world....then you have an idol. Deal with it before God does.

We will listen to the American experts and scientists -- so here it's the Cleveland Clinic -- and they have set up the protocols," Richmond told ABC News Chief White House Correspondent Jonathan Karl on Sunday.

Four brothers left home for college, and they became successful doctors
and lawyers.
One evening, they chatted after having dinner together. They
discussed the 95th birthday gifts they were able to give their elderly mother who moved
to Florida .
The first said, “You know I had a big house built for Mama.”
The second said, “And I had a large theater built in the house.”
The third said, “And I had my Mercedes dealer deliver an SL600 to her.”
The fourth said, “You know how Mama loved reading the Bible and you know
she can’t read anymore because she can’t see very well. I met this
preacher who told me about a parrot who could recite the entire Bible. It took
ten preachers almost 8 years to teach him. I had to pledge to contribute
$50,000 a year for five years to the church, but it was worth it.
Mama only has to name the chapter and verse, and the parrot will recite it.”
The other brothers were impressed. After the celebration Mama sent out
her “Thank You” notes.
She wrote: Milton , the house you built is so huge that I live in only one
room, but I have to clean the whole house. Thanks anyway.”
“Marvin, I am too old to travel. I stay home; I have my groceries
delivered, so I never use the Mercedes. The thought was good. Thanks.”
“Michael, you gave me an expensive theater with Dolby sound and it can
hold 50 people, but all of my friends are dead, I’ve lost my hearing,
and I’m nearly blind. I’ll never use it. Thank you for the gesture just the
same.”
“Dearest Melvin, you were the only son to have the good sense to give
a little thought to your gift. The chicken was delicious. Thank you so much.”
Love, Mama

👉Moral relativism can be dangerous since it leads to moral paralysis and indifference. We presently live in a world mired by a multitude of notions of moral relativism.
In a Post-Truth Era, as we are in, politics is defined by a political culture in which debate is framed by appealing to emotions rather than details of policy. Factual rebuttals are ignored, truth is of secondary (or even less) importance. Post-truth politics is dangerous as truth is not a priority anymore. Welcome to 2020.
👉Moral relativism is the view that moral judgments are true or false only relative to some particular standpoint (for instance, that of a culture or a historical period) and that no standpoint is uniquely privileged over all others. (Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy)

Today is Constitution day! In 1787 the Constitution was completed and signed. 233 years later we have a President who never read it and if he did, wouldn't follow it anyway.😡 #YoureBeingTrumped2020
Not a lot of good comedy shows on the TV, or maybe I am just not watching it when they are. "Young Sheldon" is funny. Aside from that the only other comedy show I watch is Tucker Carlson. On one show the nerd will grow up to be brilliant and the other show an intellectual nerd has grown up to be a comedian. #YoureBeingTrumped2020
Trump says he will sign an executive order on patriotic education in schools. Calling it the 1776 commission because "Hitler Youth" has already been taken.
Attorney General William Barr appears to have given up any legal sense he should have as AG and is now stumping for Trump and, apparently, himself to get more time as the AG. Looking over his most recent "commentaries" if he were a just a lawyer I would have no faith in being defended by him.
Minneapolis city council "defunds" the police. Now they brought their police chief to answer to them why crimes is going up and why police aren't there to respond. The first sentence answers the second sentence.
If you are still relying on politicians to end abortion you gonna have a long long long long wait...its not a politics resolvable issue anymore

Trump thinks Twitter is out to get him. Being clueless about anything "sciencey" he probably things algorithm was Clintons vice president. Big conspiracy from Twitter??? or...more likely it could be that a very large number of people don't like him and don't mind sharing it.

Sept 9, 2020:
Roe V Wade was in Jan 1973. Every four years since then there has been a Presidential candidate, usually Republican, who has promised to end abortion and stop funding. Reagan didnt do it. Neither of the Bushes did it. Under Trump, in 2017 Planned Parenthood had its biggest budget ever, then beat that in 2018, then beat that in 2019. In between presidential campaigns the Senator and Rep candidates all made the same promises. Didn't happen. Even the states that think they "Defunded" PP did not stop it...they just killed a funding source (and some only temporary).
Back in the late 80s when I was a very active anti--abortion activist I recollect being told by someone that the further we get away from Roe V Wade, the more difficult it will be to reverse it. It is now 2020. It was Albert Einstein who said “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." The list of prolife candidates since 1973 is almost endless.
Politics is not the answer...it is a heart issue. And it always has been. The "Christian Right" got caught up in the idea that if we pick the right candidates, if we check the right box or pull the right lever we are doing our part of "Gods will." That would mean, however, that when Clinton & Obama won twice we failed God...or maybe God just wasn't paying attention that month. We have heard that "a camel is a horse designed by a committee." Well, a deep dark hole is a skyscraper built by a group of politicians.....especially those that use the words "investigation" or "judicial" or "review" in their title.
Digging our way out doesnt mean electing better builders who promise they will not fail this time....and this time...and this time...and this time....that's back to insanity.
Racism, abortion, and probably a long list of items cant be left to politicians. They require sincere prayer and action from the true elect and a little less intrusion by the elected.

Sept 6, 2020: Henderson Lightning: Cawthorn, Davis swap charges on character, white nationalism, military service
Davis responded: “Well, I spent 25-years in uniform defending your right to say what you want and to practice your religion the way that you want. To me it is not very Christian to attack another Christian’s faith. I am not a fan of Franklin Graham. … I was a big believer in Billy Graham, I’ve got his books at home at my house and I have read them and I respect him greatly. … Franklin Graham has made himself one of the richest 1%, taking $1 million a year off the top from money people have given to do the lord’s work. That’s not the bible I grew up with. So, no, I am no fan of Franklin Graham, but I am a firm believer in religious conviction and religious faith and I defend the right of everyone to practice the way that they believe.”

Home schooling was not something the Ring family in Beloit set out to do long term. “It happened by accident,” is how Amanda Ring, the mother, explained it.
And now, amid COVID-19 restrictions, they find they are part of an expanding group, although they are more used to the routine than those just starting.

“I actually started out in politics as a Democrat,” Pence said. “… As I came of age in college and understood the principles and values on which I was raised, I joined the Republican party. I heard in the voice of my second-favorite president, Ronald Reagan, an unapologetic commitment to a strong national defense, free-market economics and an unapologetic commitment to the right to life. … That’s what drew me to this party.”

👉Is the media the enemy? I used to think that but not any more.. There was a time when the media did the job of reporting events and challenging problems in government. There are still some doing it, but the rest reports the media according to their narrative of choice. Left Wing, Right Wing, up and down... That media is just taking advantage of the fact that most people dont really care whats going on as long as they protect their narrative. They want an audience to pay the bills because they have built such large new conglomerations and hire their anchors and reporter for up to a million dollars plus per year. Much more than their worth.
👉The media now feeds off people mainly who cannot think critically. The non-critical thinkers choose their news like they're ordering off a breakfast menu. Hence they choose their reality. Relativism is a failed proposition in logic and debate and will have a bad end. When "what I feel" trumps "the way things are" there will only be common ground amongst the people who chose the same news source off the break fast menu.
👉Denial is a river in Egypt and the main supply of water for the residing Americans living within the groups of the Republican National Cult of Trump. ..apparently Telling the truth about Trump is considered hate speech by the Republican National Cult of Trump. If you are not supportive of Trump you are a leftist, socialist, baby killer, communist, or Democrat among other things. But, that is the way Trump wanted it and that is what he got. The "rank and file" of the RNC of Trump followed his orders and didn't watch the news he told them not to watch and watch the news he says is OK. Oh he will change periodically but extreme self absorbed people live for today. Trump can lie today and then claim he didnt say that tomorrow. And all of the members of the RNC of Trump will follow his lead. Freedom was never bought with such subservience. The press will often question but the rank and file absolutely do not want their narratives messed with. For some you would think that's all they have. The others step it up a notch and make Trump equal and sometimes more important then Jesus Christ. When it was reported that John Lennon said the Beatles were bigger than Jesus audiences burned their records. With Trump, he just gains new disciples.

He's a narcissist and a neurotic with a feral talent for attracting the attention he craves," Stephens writes. "In Russia, Putin can compel attention thanks to his complete control over most media and many other aspects of ordinary life.

All the bad stuff that has happened during Trump administration is being blamed on a former President or one that will be if he wins in November.

Sept 1, 2020: Forest Park Review: COVID and the Altenheim site

Just completed, a village-ordered real estate appraisal of the 11 acres running south off Madison Street put a stunningly lowball value on the green space.

White House press secretary Kayleigh "Karen" McEnany repeated the falsehood on Monday as fact.

Aug 31, 2020:
👉A false claim pointing to recent data from the CDC indicating that COVID-19 "was the only cause mentioned" in 6% of the deaths registered so far is false.
The conspiracy theory alleges that this revelation means COVID-19 is not as deadly as previously claimed. This is not true. The CDC data indicates that other factors, such as obesity, contributed to deaths. But it does not mean the people would have died had they not contracted the disease. The information came from the conspiracy group QAnon and Trump tweeted the information and, of course, all members of the Republican National Cult Trump have been passing this information around all day as though they had just won a prize. Twitter deleted Trumps tweet. There have been people booted from Twitter for constantly tweeting nonsense that have been banned or temporarily banned for tweeting less false information then Trump has.
Kayleigh "Karen" McEnany responded to a question about the video with: "The president's never seen that video." It was the video Trump himself had tweeted out.
👉Liberty University announced it has opened an independent investigation into "all facets" of the tenure of Jerry Falwell Jr.
And speaking of Falwell, Adult film star Ron Jeremy faces additional sex-crime charges involving 13 more women. If convicted as charged, Jeremy could face a possible maximum sentence of more than 250 years to life in state prison.
And speaking of jail sentences. President Trump pardoned Alice Marie Johnson, a onetime drug convict, a day after she appeared in a campaign video praising his leadership, the New York Times reports.
And speaking of Trump's inflated ego, if Stormy Daniels wanted to get money as compensation from Trump she should have just appeared in a campaign video because that is the only way to Trumps heart......apparently..
👉The Supreme Court's decision striking down a Louisiana restriction on abortion clinics is giving abortion opponents an unlikely opportunity in other states. Officials in Texas, Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky and Oklahoma have recently argued that the court's 5-4 ruling actually bolsters their defense of anti-abortion laws, even though the justices ruled against Louisiana. As a former activist against abortion and certainly still a believer against it...in the game of political football there's never any real win. The matter has to go to the heart of the people..not through the possibly well-meaning but ultimately failed efforts of politicians. The Roe Vs Wade decision was in 1973. It's 2020. : “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." --Albert Einstein
👉Most recent Gallup polling found that 31% of Americans identified as Democrats, 25% identified as Republican, and 40% as other or Independent. People from the Republican National Cult of Trump have stated that being a Democrat is satanic and no one can be a Democrat and be a Christian. So, by their standards they have judged 31% of Americans to be on their way to hell......and it appears they would prefer they go there now rather than vote as a heathen......and the other 40% is likely on the way to hell behind them

The conspiracy theory alleges that this revelation means COVID-19 is not as deadly as previously claimed. This is not true. The CDC data indicates that other factors, such as obesity, contributed to deaths. But it does not mean the people would have died had they not contracted the disease. The information came from the conspiracy group QAnon and Trump tweeted the information and, of course, all members of the Republican National Cult Trump have been passing this information around all day as though they had just won a prize. Twitter deleted Trumps tweet. There have been people booted from Twitter for constantly tweeting nonsense that have been banned or temporarily banned for tweeting less false information then Trump has.
Kayleigh "Karen" McEnany responded to a question about the video with: "The president's never seen that video." It was the video Trump himself had tweeted out.
👉Liberty University announced it has opened an independent investigation into "all facets" of the tenure of Jerry Falwell Jr.
And speaking of Falwell, Adult film star Ron Jeremy faces additional sex-crime charges involving 13 more women. If convicted as charged, Jeremy could face a possible maximum sentence of more than 250 years to life in state prison.
And speaking of jail sentences. President Trump pardoned Alice Marie Johnson, a onetime drug convict, a day after she appeared in a campaign video praising his leadership, the New York Times reports.
And speaking of Trump's inflated ego, if Stormy Daniels wanted to get money as compensation from Trump she should have just appeared in a campaign video because that is the only way to Trumps heart......apparently..
👉The Supreme Court's decision striking down a Louisiana restriction on abortion clinics is giving abortion opponents an unlikely opportunity in other states. Officials in Texas, Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky and Oklahoma have recently argued that the court's 5-4 ruling actually bolsters their defense of anti-abortion laws, even though the justices ruled against Louisiana. As a former activist against abortion and certainly still a believer against it...in the game of political football there's never any real win. The matter has to go to the heart of the people..not through the possibly well-meaning but ultimately failed efforts of politicians. The Roe Vs Wade decision was in 1973. It's 2020. : “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." --Albert Einstein
👉Most recent Gallup polling found that 31% of Americans identified as Democrats, 25% identified as Republican, and 40% as other or Independent. People from the Republican National Cult of Trump have stated that being a Democrat is satanic and no one can be a Democrat and be a Christian. So, by their standards they have judged 31% of Americans to be on their way to hell......and it appears they would prefer they go there now rather than vote as a heathen......and the other 40% is likely on the way to hell behind them

Optimism grows for emergency coronavirus vaccine use in 2020 02:14(CNN)Twitter on Sunday took down a tweet containing a false claim about coronavirus death statistics that was made by a supporter of the baseless QAnon conspiracy theory -- a post that President Donald Trump had retweeted earlier in the day.

Aug 31, 2020: Market Watch: Trump is losing the support of the military, according to a new poll of active-duty troops
“Trump has failed to deliver for the military, national defense, and national security,” wrote Vindman, who was fired from the NSC after raising concerns about Trump’s infamous July 2019 phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. “Nothing can be more damning than a Republican Admin. losing the support of military personnel and their families.”

Aug 30, 2020: Reason: Trump Promotes the Outlandish Claim That COVID-19 Has Killed a 'Minuscule' Number of Americans
As with his rhetoric about crime and rioting, Trump wants to have it both ways with COVID-19. Republicans portray Trump as a savior whose decisive action prevented "millions" of COVID-19 deaths, a claim that relies on the unrealistic "no intervention" projection Trump endorsed in March. Yet now the president seems to think COVID-19 never presented a serious threat at all. Both propositions cannot possibly be true.

👉Facebook employees slammed CEO Mark Zuckerberg during a companywide meeting, questioning his leadership and decision-making, following a week in which the platform promoted violent conspiracy theories and gave safe harbor to militia groups. Zuckerberg attempted to address questions about violence in Kenosha, Wisconsin, and the QAnon conspiracy that has proliferated across Facebook. #DeleteFacebook trended on Twitter today. No social media idea can last forever..and I see the end of FaceBook coming and am working at leaving it soon myself after 10 years..
When I first got on FB there were so many cat pictures....maybe that's what's wrong: Not enough cat pictures any more.......Hmmmmm..."Dear Mark Zuckerberg......"
👉Demonstrators gathered at the Lincoln Memorial to commemorate the historic 1963 civil rights March on Washington. The demonstration, taking place on the 57th anniversary of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.'s iconic "I Have a Dream" speech, seeks "to restore and recommit to the dream Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. defined" that year. The irony, though is that Dr Martin Luther King would likely have nothing to do with what is being passed off today as "peaceful protest" where people burn and loot and kill. If they can "recommit" to the MLK JR vision, however, it would be a great move. At this point, Black Lives Matter and Antifa are essentially domestic terrorists with media support and endorsements from many Democrat leaders.
On a side note: Some men see things as they are and ask why. I dream things that never were, get distracted, then go out for donuts.
👉Sen. Rand Paul was confronted by protesters after leaving the Republican National Cult of Trump festivities at the White House. Later Paul thanked DC Police Dept for "literally saving our lives from a crazed mob" he said. That is great for Rand Paul and his wife but here's the thing that I am not happy about: The DC police protected him, which is fine, but apparently unless you're a politician and not just a business owner, citizens getting face-punched, someone trying to drive to work, or some person who just lives in the neighborhood...the police dont seem to be offering much protection for them. So if you get into a kerfuffle with a "peaceful" protester make sure call the police and tell them you're an elected official. Apparently they'll be right there.

In the background there are buildings and cars on fire.
By that standard, if Omar was in Louisiana he would be reporting: "All the swimming pools are open today!" 🤔
👉Adding this to the "Republican National Cult of Trump File" I found this on FaceBook today:
"My wife said, You Love Trump! I said, I LOVE JESUS for using Trump!!! We are watching the Greatest Awakening and so many cannot see it even now!!! The Special Needs Mom being told to abort her child. The Heartfelt GOD BLESS The United States of America over and over again!!! The lifelong dems walking away!!! The women being honored and another pardon!!! 100 years later! None of this by coinsidence!!! So much more is happening as the Republican National Convention is NOT POLITICALLY CORRECT IT IS THE TRUTH that satan HATES and those that are following satan. The Storm!!! NOT A COINCIDENCE AT ALL as satan (prince of the air) pitches a fit again! This is when we BELIEVERS KNOW GOD IS REMOVING satan's strongholds to this Nation!!! HOLY, HOLY, HOLY HALLELUJAH to our JESUS!!!

👉President Donald Trump has sunk so low that former Vice President Joe Biden should not even "legitimize" him by debating him in the presidential election, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said today. I will have to disagree. They have agreed to three debates and I would even be OK with more. Both of them have one major problem: their mouths. No winners or losers if you go by what candidates promise in a debate. They usually get hung by "stupid" by their own tongue. Consider the audience as fish. They use debate to catch the fish. Some people just can't put debate on the hook very well. I love to watch the fishing.
👉"There are dozens of reasons why the United States lagged so far behind in preparations for the pandemic. Some are cultural, some are economic, some are political. But there is no doubt that one of the reasons is the Trump–Fox feedback loop. When the virus silently spread, some of Fox’s biggest stars denied and downplayed the threat.
Trump echoed them, and they echoed back. “The thing that’s going to end this is the warmer weather,” Greg Gutfeld said on February 24. “One day—it’s like a miracle—it will disappear,” Trump said on February 27. Fox’s longest-tenured medical analyst, Dr. Marc Siegel, told Hannity on March 6, “at worst, at worst, worst case scenario, it could be the flu.”

Rep. James Gailliard, D-Nash, is featured in the new ad, which premiered Tuesday on Biden’s YouTube channel and will air on television this week. The ad focuses on Gailliard’s role as pastor of Word Tabernacle Church and doesn’t mention his state office. The 30-second video shows Gailliard’s large empty church, which is in the old Home Depot building, and scenes of empty streets in downtown Rocky Mount.
