YUP! A poison pill so Proj2025 can take over.

GOV CANNOT REOPEN UNTIL HOUSE IS BACK IN SESSION

PROOF IT IS A GOP SHUTDOWN:

The version of the CR approved by the House differs by 3 paragraphs from the one filed in the Senate.

Even if Senate Dems approved, the bill would have to go to conference.

A poison pill. Not a clean CR.

Due process. Academic freedom. An independent judiciary. A free press. A professional civil service. A protected environment. These aren't partisan talking points; they are the pillars of a healthy nation. And every single one of them is under direct assault by the Trump administration.

What I'm saying is that the CR approved by the house is not the version delivered by the House to the Senate.

Not Dem written. Identical to House CR except for two paragraphs.

I was actually thinking less broadly than it may appear.

MLK was first and foremost a Baptist preacher. Prayed at a Billy Graham crusade. A follower of Christ if there ever was one.

But now, white Jesus everywhere.

Over 95% of Haitians in USA are Christians.

And MLK the pastor whited away.

IMHO, pales in comparison to the whitewashing of Jesus

NO ROYALTY WITHOUT PEASANTRY

Saturday is "We won't be peasants" day

Except MAGA is willing to be BBB peasants.

Which has been Proj2025's plan all along.

So scratch that. Saturday is "No Kings for us. Only MAGA as peasants!" day

Or maybe "Hey MAGA! Proj2025 is turning you into peasants" day

Putin is a one trick pony - but it is a very good trick

He has an Einstein-level genius for being the man behind the curtain

Economic leadership, Diplomacy, etc, - average at best

But spy-craft style influence peddling, behind the scenes manipulation of Brexit, Trump,...

He has a genius for that

And once there is too little left in the bottom 50%, they will instead take it from each other.

"Those who love money never have enough money." Ecclesiastes

MAGA's greatest sin was not in the ballot box.

It was in corrupting Christianity to accommodate wealthy allies and a secular agenda.

Con men 101:
They rip off those who trust them, not those who don't

Presidency allows him to intimidate those who don't

But the second American revolution - bloodless if the left allows it - has always been about bringing Latifundio and its 41% rural poverty to the USA.

So rich can get richer

Targeting MAGA has always been the Trump Proj2025 plan.

Read it in Summer 2024. Began warning MAGA people they were the target:

And a nickel per text when my kids were teenagers!

True story: I laughed when my son told me someone had made a phone that had a camera.

"Why would anyone ever want a camera in their phone?"

Little did I know ... literally!
