As a man of God, President Trump will give Christ the final pass on the Epstein list to black out the names of the innocent Patriots who were simply there on a layover.

Went ahead and took my pronouns off my email signature at work, because I'm sure it's about to be outlawed. Hopefully people know that I'm a guy with a name like David. However, I work with people who have unique names that really make you appreciate pronouns....like Kehinde.

BASH: I remember a time when Republicans were very careful about the government having access to personal data

Here’s my view:

I obviously disagree with Edward leaking a data security firm’s sensitive information to its competitor but I don’t think unethical mishandling of sensitive data should ruin a young kid’s ability to fire career civil servants and take control of the nation’s finances.

A friend asked me about the potential risk of losing public broadcasting funding. If you're interested, I recommend this comprehensive report from "On The Media," which explains what's always saved CPB funding in the past, and why it might not now.

For some pathogens to break through, the country’s immunization rates may need to slip quite a bit. But for others, the gap between no outbreak and outbreak is uncomfortably small, @katherinejwu.com reports: theatln.tc/s3GC0C9D

I'm hoping that the collapse of society can hold off long enough for me to enjoy at least a couple of years of retirement, but it's not looking rosy

Our society witnesses Christians hold all the ordinary people in our country to unflinchingly rigid moral standards while simultaneously holding their preferred politicians accountable to no moral standards at all.

That’s moral relativism.

Jesus laying down his life out of love for the world rather than using all cosmic and political power to force the world to obey him will forever be the greatest critique of any Christian movement that seeks to secure power in order to ensure that others conform to their will.

When we Christians are more known for our support of presidents than we are for our support of the poor, the immigrant, the marginalized, and the oppressed, that is when we know we are following someone other than Jesus and we have a lot of repenting to do.

If your Christianity causes you to be offended by someone asking the most powerful person in the country to be merciful towards the powerless, then you have profoundly misunderstood the teachings of Jesus Christ.

After Prop 8 we would go to small businesses that had donated big checks to pass it. We’d go in and shop and fill up our carts and let them ring it up and then just say “tell your boss I’d have paid for this if he didn’t pay to take away my marriage.” And we’d walk out.

Maybe Target should be next?
