“When you truly encounter Jesus, He puts His finger on the nerve of your existence, the gods that you worship, and He tells you, 'destroy these idols and follow me.’”

I can't think of a more ethnically prejudiced person in the world than Barack Obama.
I've said so for years.
The man has such a deep seated hatred of white people that as he incessantly bemoans America’s history of slavery, a history which both chronologically and numerically is relatively minor when compared to such geographic regions as South America (and Brazil in particular), the Spanish mainland, and the Caribbean, he consistently ignores the historical role black Africans played in facilitating and profiting from the transatlantic slave trade.
Such ignorance is highlighted by David Eltis and David Richardson in their excellent book Atlas of the Transatlantic Slave Trade, where they write: The strength and capacity of most West Africans brings us to a subject that is both surprising and upsetting to many uninformed readers: the indispensable complicity of Africans in creating and maintaining the slave trade. Even in the earliest history of the trade, the Portuguese discovered the extreme hazards and counter-productivity of trying to capture and enslave West Africans on their own. West Africans could and did attack and sink some European ships in retaliation; the rulers of Kongo, Benin, and some other regions succeeded at times in temporarily stopping the trade in slaves. Yet the crucial point was the eagerness of African rulers and merchants to sell slaves. Similarity in skin color and other bodily traits. as Europeans viewed them, brought African rulers and merchants no sense of a common African identity with the captives sold. And the sellers of slaves profited immensely from the acquisition of textiles, hardware, bars of iron, liquor, guns and gunpowder, tools, and utensils of various kinds. Between 1680 and 1830, when the trade had its most devastating impact on African societies, the price paid for slaves in Senegambia rose tenfold.
The anniversary of Dobbs is always marked by the Republican pro-life establishment trying to convince conservative Christians that our work against abortion is basically over. But we cannot believe these narratives. The abortion crisis is not only continuing, but is actively worsening, and will continue to worsen until we actually treat abortion like murder in our laws.
The MLB has warned Christian baseball players that their faith and moral convictions will not be tolerated.
“They are surprised when you do not join them in the same flood of debauchery, and they malign you. But they will give an account to Him…” (1 Peter 4:4-5)
When I think of sports takes the didn’t age well, this is what I think of:
“[Knicks] don’t have a dude… [Jalen Brunson is] too small… If your best player is small, you're not winning [a Championship].”

Left-wing activist athletes, leagues, & media have undoubtedly been dividing sports fans for years...
- LeBron James said black people are hunted as soon as they leave their front door & doxxed a police officer
- Former ESPN anchor Elle Duncan protested Florida Governor, Ron DeSantis’ “Don’t Say Gay” bill live on air, because she was angry that teachers can't talk about sex and transgenderism with 6-year olds
- WNBA's Seattle Storm publicly endorsed Kamala Harris for president
- Texans LB Azeez Al-Shaair wore "Free Palestine" cleats during a game
- ESPN honored Lia Thomas during a Women's History Month broadcast
- ESPN's Ryan Clark spoke poorly of Charlie Kirk on air after his death
- LGBTQ Pride Night is celebrated by almost every team and every league with tickets sales for some team's going to orgs that support gender reassignment surgeries on minors, drag queens are promoted, etc.
THE LIST GOES ON & ON...
Left wing politics have been the main cause of the divide within sports. That's a fact.
Getting mad at Jaxson Dart for introducing Trump at a rally, or losing your mind over Team USA men's hockey attending the White House/State of the Union, but being ok with all of this divisive liberal nonsense in sports, is astronomically stupid & wildly hypocritical.
Athletes can & should support whoever they want politically off the field, and fans/media have the right to criticize them for it, but the group that has been poisoning sports with politics, is undoubtedly The Left.
Conservatives want politics out of sports. The Left wants them to be foundational. That's the difference.
As a patient, you have a right to access your medical information. If a doctor, hospital, or other health care setting has blocked access to your medical record or test results, you should let HHS know and report it through the @ONC_HealthIT's Report Information Blocking Portal at https://t.co/KJhb3xeNBI
Your voice is important as HHS cracks down on health information blocking.
Look at all the people it takes to produce an even less funny version of an MSNBC show. YouTubers have like 5 people on staff and get millions more views each week than this show.
