God of justice, truth, and faith, we pray for those facing injustice, give them strength and hope.
We pray for teachers and leaders, guide them in truth and honesty.
We pray for those who feel discouraged, remind them that you are near.
We pray for the church,
that we would rest in Your justice.

If you think Trump cares about peace
more than Trump cares about Trump;
wait for his reaction
when someone else wins the Nobel Prize.

More history from this Nazi adulated by the Trump team. These are explicit, proud Nazis who scream and cry and call every referee they can find when you quote their Nazism back to them.

Multiple tweets from Nazi Jack Posobiec in 2016 making "jokes" involving the Nazi code "1488."

What on Earth could those violent, terrorist anti-fascists have been opposing from the late 1920s onwards? It's a real head scratcher.

"Antifa has been around in various iterations for almost 100 years in some instances, going back to the Weimar Republic in Germany."

The last item on BBC's evening news was basically "Dolly Parton is fine" which is, as Seth Meyers says, the kind of news we need right now

If you don’t know what pokey time is, well you’ve missed out. We’ve been learning about the meta skill of focusing, and developing our fine motor skills by poking pins through paper to make pictures.

We love it!

The picture of toadstools coloured in. We find it quite relaxing.

Nothing says "I want independent judges" like threatening to sack any judge who disagrees with you, while holding up a judge's wig like a puppet

The problem is that I don't think Goodwin is so ignorant as to not know why his claim is so wrong. But he is banking on the people who listen to him being that ignorant.
