And though this world, with devils filled
Should threaten to undo us
We will not fear, for God hath willed
His truth to triumph through us
The Prince of Darkness grim
We tremble not for him
His rage we can endure
For lo, his doom is sure
One little word shall fell him

It’s hard to wrap your mind around it because of how callous it is.
But that’s what White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt actually said. Out loud. To press. Proudly.
