@newtgingrich It's all part of a plan.

@NoFear_DogHere @JaredEMoskowitz Income tax was needed to oppress the people and fund bankers wars. They lent money to Hitler.

[Jim Banks @JimBanks64]

@NoFear_DogHere @JaredEMoskowitz You're proof brainwashing works. The economy we live in now was constructed over decades. Tariffs were once the primary source of government revenue before the Rothschilds implemented the Federal Reserve and the income tax. It's all about power and money.

[Jim Banks @JimBanks64]

@Mike_Taylor1972 His rise is evidence of brainwashing. Liberal thought is based completely on theory of academics. It's completely divorced from reality and human nature. Exploiting youth to turn them into mindless tools of the elite to divide us is shameful.

@ZubyMusic Since feminists claim to hate men, while trying to appropriate all masculine coded characteristics and abilities for themselves, while claiming to support women, while hating everything feminine coded…this tracks.

@edzitron The math bears this out. AI is already a bubble. Too much resources to do things worse than a human. It's more of a cover for evil. It will be good at automating control of the population. We'll all be in prison without bars.

@JackPosobiec Go woke go broke.

[Jim Banks @JimBanks64]

@DataRepublican Totally typical liberal thinking that they could just build a government with money. Central planning always fails.

@Kasparov63 @NoFear_DogHere All crypto is a scam. Trump has some sociopaths advising him. Joining with the tech bros and Israel lobby has ruined his pro America image.

The Senate should reconvene to debate the SAVE America Act and other legislation made more urgently needed by recent Supreme Court rulings.

Who’s with me?

There’s no time to waste.

[Jim Banks @JimBanks64]

@NoFear_DogHere @bennyjohnson Trump is compromised too by the way. It's the elites and us cattle. If you have left right illusions I hate to break it to you. It's a global cabal dividing us by every means to subvert the constitution. They have a global corporate fascism. All the DSA are useful idiots.

[Jim Banks @JimBanks64]

@NoFear_DogHere @bennyjohnson You assume a lot. I'm politically agnostic with a high IQ. A recovering former leftist. Educated before the brainwashing they call education got this bad. Keep in mind the elite class owns the judiciary. Apparently they have you plugged into their matrix.

Official transcript from the US Senate on May 30, 1866. Senator Jacob Howard, who introduced the 14th Amendment:

"This will not, of course, include persons born in the United States who are foreigners, aliens...”

SCOTUS got this ruling 100% wrong. A total travesty.

@ShamashAran Well said.

Allow me to put it even more simply:
When a politician talks about feeding the poor, he's doing it with your money for their own glory.

When we do it ourselves, we still use our own money, but we do it for God's glory.

[Sensurround @ShamashAran]

I hear statements like this all the time:

"Why when Jesus talks about feeding the poor, it’s christianity. But when a politician talks about feeding the poor, it’s socialism?"

This is one of those ideas that sounds profound until you examine it for longer than the lifespan of a fruit fly.

Take the Parable of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25–37). A traveler gets robbed and left for dead. A Samaritan comes along and:

Bandages the mans wounds.
Puts him on his own animal.
Takes him to an inn.
Pays his own money for the man's care.

Then Jesus says, "Go and do likewise."

At no point does the Samaritan stop and say, "Hold on while I petition the Roman provincial government to establish the Department of Fallen Travelers."

Notice the subject of that sentence. It isnt Caesar. It isn't the Sanhedrin. It isn't the Ministry of Compassionate Transportation. It's YOU.

This theme shows up repeatedly. Jesus tells individuals to be generous, to care for the poor, to lend expecting nothing in return, to give secretly, to serve one another, to sell possessions and give to those in need. (Luke 12:33, Luke 3:10–14, Luke 6:35–36, Matthew 5:16, Matthew 6:1–4, John 13:12–17.)

If you actually study the Bible, and not use it as a pithy collection of sayings, you learn that Jesus made it very clear that public service to those in need is part of your worship of God and him. It's necessary in order to be a christian. Outsourcing it to government is not good enough.

Christian charity is fundamentally a moral obligation placed on the believer. I can't outsource the giving and service required of me to the Government any more than I could outsource prayer or belief.

If a politician wants to talk about feeding the poor, he's a good Christian if he's doing it himself, with his own money. That's it. (He should also be doing it quietly as Matthew 6:1 says, but that's a different rant.)

If your definition of socialism is simply "helping poor people" then congratulations: your childish understanding of politics almost eclipses your childish understanding of Christianity.

@NoFear_DogHere @bennyjohnson This is propaganda. Millions of illegals are voting. Lefts are also casting millions of illegal votes too. Mail in ballots should be illegal too. It's worth the inconvenience for the will of the people to matter.

USAID: The data show that dismantling USAID did not result in ANY increase in African mortality much less the four million Democrats claim Elon Musk is responsible for killing. It was all a lie. In fact, the UNAIDS/SAMRC data show that mortality declined after.

@ScottPresler Mail in ballots should be outlawed.
