We know that most people make up their minds then look for evidence to support their impression and dismiss evidence that contradicts their opinion. This is not just one side or the other. It is almost universal. But we can change ourselves to be more self-reflective and admit when we are wrong. 1/2

I don't know who needs to hear this.
Vengeance is mine saith the Lord.
In other words, not Trump's, not MAGA's. To be clear, MAGA is NOT on the Lord's side and is NOT doing the Lord's will. In fact, their cruelty and hypocrisy are exactly what Christ frequently condemned.

The officer in Minneapolis may have been mad but he wasn't following any safety protocols by having a cell phone in one hand and a gun in the other. And he shot AFTER he was out of the way, so it amounts to a retaliatory killing. Should ICE be allowed to do that? If so,when exactly is it okay?

The question is not whether Renee Good was innocent or guilty, it's whether you believe she committed a capital offense by "obstructing" ICE? If so, what other actions ought to result in immediate execution?

After the shooting in Minneapolis this week, the question is whether we want to live in a country where law enforcement is given cart blanche to kill anyone, who may possibly obstruct them? And if so what do you do when they start doing things that you don't like? You have given them the power.

Absolutely not! "Self-defense" does NOT include firing on survivors clinging to a boat! If the tables were turned and someone fired on US soldiers outside of a boat, they would completely correctly be accused of and indeed guilty of committing a war crime.
Reporter: “You said that the follow-up strike was lawful. What law is it that allows no survivors?”
Leavitt: “The strike conducted on September 2 was conducted in self-defense to protect Americans and vital United States interests…And in accordance with the law of armed conflict.”

An administration that looks up to dictators is unsurprisingly acting more and more outside of the law. They think they can do whatever they want. There needs to be some serious accountability! And sooner rather than later.
@markhertling.bsky.social: “When you're talking about striking against someone who's wounded and clinging to debris…Deliberately targeting such a person isn't a tactical decision, it's a war crime by the Geneva Convention, the laws of land warfare, and the U.N. Charter.”

Is this the post of a serious person? Do we want someone as SecDef who jokes about killing people? Especially after giving an order to kill the survivors of the first attack on the boat. A clear violation of the Geneva Convention regardless of whether the first strike was legal or not.

What are the chances that the sphere around this president will financially benefit from this Ukraine surrender plan? I would say really, really high. He is clearly only concerned about himself at all times.

Remember in the treaty signed to end World War II that France had to give Germany a bunch of land and limit the size of its army? Oh wait, those are terms for the aggressor. Why in the world should Ukraine have to be punished for Putin's aggression? The world is upside down. #putinsucks #vivaukraine

President Trump should hereafter be called Neville Chamberlain Jr when it comes to appeasing a horrible dictator in Putin. History teaches us that this doesn't end well for the world!

Despite being threatened by the President of the United States, these Senators and Representatives will not be deterred. They will not be silenced. They will not be intimidated. They love this country and believe we are better than what the politics represent!

There are no words to describe how horrible this plan is. It rewards Russia with additional territory and acts as if Ukraine were the aggressor. #horribleplan #slavaukraini #stopputin

People who refuse to do their jobs, negatively affecting millions and causing thousands to not get paid should be fired immediately. When will we hold Congress accountable for their incompetence and corruption? #firecongress #accountability #doyourjob #comebacktoplanetearthcongress

I have said it before and I will say it again, Congress's pay or even their entire job should be based on their performance. And not passing a budget should be fireable offense as if in any other job if you couldn't accomplish the most basic requirement of the job, you would be fired!

Strong positions can withstand scrutiny and are defensible. Bad ideas need for opposing views to be silenced. Intimidating the media and those with whom you disagree is a major indication that you have bad ideas!

We all ought to feel safe to express our views without fear of violence. One can strongly disagree with some of Charlie Kirk's views without malice towards him. He didn't deserve his fate. But I also fear the repression by the government of voices opposed to Charlie Kirk's views. #1stamendment

Serious question to those who profess to believe in Christ:
What kind of questions will be asked on judgment day? Do you think that border security will come up? Will people be rewarded based on how many people they helped deport?

Part of the problem with modern politics is that people put too much in people from their side. The current administration says A LOT of outrageous things that some people blindly believe, which is stupid but blind faith in politicians isn't new or exclusive to Trumpers unfortunately.

It is clear to everyone that Trump is not the strong one in this situation! Putin is in charge in any interaction with Trump!
EX AMBASSADOR TO RUSSIA MCFAUL: “Putin doesn't look at all of this stuff as a sign of strength. He looks at it as a sign of weakness. He had to do absolutely nothing to get this meeting. Putin has gained everything and given nothing in return.”

Pondering, what are all of the newly hired ICE agents going to do after all of the supposed illegals are gone? Which group will be next? It never stops because they need to continue externalizing their supposed problems.
