Thank you for this piece. We all have to fight this slide into White Nationalist Authoritarian ism.

And just like what’s happening today, reasonable Republicans need to find some common ground with Democrats to fight back against that white nationalist ideology.

Saturday of the Third Week of Lent

Lk 18:9-14

Jesus addressed this parable

to those who were convinced of their own righteousness

and despised everyone else.

“Two people went up to the temple area to pray;

one was a Pharisee and the other was a tax collector.

The Pharisee took up his position and spoke this prayer to himself,

‘O God, I thank you that I am not like the rest of humanity —

greedy, dishonest, adulterous — or even like this tax collector.

I fast twice a week,

and I pay tithes on my whole income.’

But the tax collector stood off at a distance

and would not even raise his eyes to heaven

but beat his breast and prayed,

‘O God, be merciful to me a sinner.’

I tell you, the latter went home justified, not the former;

for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled,

and the one who humbles himself will be exalted.”

This is just sick and corrupt. May karma visit these men soon. People need to be more skeptical of those who seek to use X to villainize their opponents

Another excellent assessment full of factual information. When will the silent majority realize it's time to speak up and defend our Constitutions and righteousness.

You know, perhaps this is the opening we have to open up the primaries to all voters? When the rats turn on themselves, it’s time to bring in the dogs! And as I have said many times on this Substack, I’m an independent voter and I appreciate being able to play on both teams.
