As Chas used to say, the issue is never the issue…..
Why is climate change activist Gretta Thunberg at a Palestine protest you ask?
Because the issue is never the issue, the issue is always the revolution – and both climate change and Palestine are issues the left uses to build support for their revolution.pic.twitter.com/Qu54HJIsPQ
“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves,” the gospel of Matthew warns. The PCA isn’t just ignoring that warning. They’re giving the wolf a new wool coat and microphone and daring the sheep to object. https://t.co/qAeF8aKwMP
One month from today, Presbyterian leaders will gather in Richmond, Virginia, for the Presbyterian Church in America’s annual General Assembly to discuss and debate church issues and decide on matters of importance. One attendee, nay speaker, however, is decidedly not Presbyterian.
That little ray of sunshine is David French — the Army JAG (in case you didn’t know)-turned-religious liberty litigator-turned-writer whose brain has been so corrupted by Trump derangement that he sold out to The New York Times and The Atlantic, where his columns are indistinguishable from the dishonest drivel of the legacy press’s anti-religious religion reporters. In a phrase, he’s a regular accuser of the brethren.”
——-
“Long before French became a willing participant in atheist Rob Reiner’s anti-Trump “documentary” “God & Country” earlier this year, he was invoking white guilt to toss a cohort of Christians who vote differently than he does into the “Christian nationalism” basket. Evangelicals (specifically white ones) who were hesitant about getting the rushed and mandated Covid jab were actually “reluctant to consider the health of their community” and had a “spiritual problem.”
Less than two weeks after radical pro-abortion and pro-transgender candidate Joe Biden became the presumptive Democrat nominee in 2020, French said those who favored Trump were of low character and competence — even though, as Nathaniel Blake wrote in these pages, French was previously “behind ‘Evangelicals for Mitt’ and spent years arguing that our political leaders need not be avatars for our beliefs.”
—–‘
“While David French was a senior editor of The Dispatch, the NeverTrump publication performed a dishonest “independent fact-check” of pre-2020 election advertisements from the pro-life group Susan B. Anthony List, which exposed Biden and Kamala Harris’ support for abortion until birth. Facebook then used that fake fact-check to censor the pro-life ads.”
What he’s saying is that the Republicans got bamboozled again by a mentally incompetent man and his handlers. Weird how that keeps happening.

It really is pretty nuts.
So now Congress can pass a funding bill with a whole bunch of stuff that the parties negotiated, each side making concessions to get something in return.
And then POTUS can sign it and pick and choose which elements he wants to actually do? https://t.co/vZ4JSSUECI
This is a stunning attack on political dissent. If we don't end weaponized government extremism soon, all Americans will be slaves. https://t.co/OerYVXp8aP
Coming soon to America. They’re from a different culture, where that stuff is allowed they’ll say. You can’t really hold them responsible they’ll say….
Meanwhile the woman victim will suffer a life sentence.

Re: the man with the lint roller. Psychology experiments have shown that most people would react in the same way when something looks like it is required (like that did). Most likely, most of us here would have reacted in the same way. (It happens so quickly, most wouldn’t take the time to notice that it was a lint roller in his hand.)
But the dumb guy is wearing sweat pants and hoodie…with an obvious lint roller! He has a cross body bag on. Definitely not appearing to be in an official capacity at all…and the cap??! I would have told him to get the heck out of my way…with my pepper spray in hand…
The lint brush thing is funny. You wouldn’t even have time to think probably, so just act automatically. I wonder how many paused a minute or so later?
House Speaker Mike Johnson, accompanied by Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, and Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, on Wednesday introduced legislation that they said will ensure that only U.S. citizens are voting in U.S. elections by requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote.
“Some have noted that it’s already a crime for noncitizens to vote in a federal election, and that is true,” Johnson said during an event at the Capitol announcing the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act. However, he said, there is “no mechanism to ensure” that only citizens are registering or voting.”
“It is true that [President Joe] Biden has welcomed millions and millions of illegal aliens, including sophisticated criminal syndicates and agents of adversarial governments, into our borders and even on humanitarian parole,” Johnson, R-La., said. “It is true that a growing number of localities are blurring the lines for noncitizens by allowing them to vote in municipal elections [and] it is true that Democrats have expressed a desire to turn non-citizens into voters.”
