I am honestly quite worried about Chicago, and begging the national press to report it as what it is: an invasion of a US city by the national guard of another state at the behest of a fascist president for purposes of terrorizing the people into submission. There is no legitimate debate about it.

I have family in Raleigh. Every time I visit I am filled with rage and depression. I have no clue who aspires to live like that. Endless driving. The “town centers” are malls. I once spent 45 mins driving around a single intersection looking for a protein drink. Don’t get me started abt medians.

I’m really sick of the courts finding this administration broke the law in some unprecedented way, but they get to keep doing illegal things for a few months as a little treat. They’re defaulting to rewarding lawbreaking.

There’s no longer any pretense this has anything to do with crime (there are cities or parts of cities in SC and Ohio that have higher crime rates than DC — send the troops there!). This is about establishing a precedent for Trump seizing control of the nation’s capital when he wants to.

The Word is different from the deeds of man. The religion is not the actions of the flock. I believe there is a Christian faith that is forgiving, kind, empathetic and communal. But the faith we see everywhere today bears little resemblance to actual Christianity.
