@RepJayapal Let’s tell Chuck Schumer to remove the King of Coal, Joe Manchin from the chairmanship of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee. Serious conflict of interest! Consequently, he’s single-handedly making efforts to ‘build back (anything) better’ worse for everyone!

…women, especially 1st timers don’t even know that they ARE pg. These so-called ‘pro-lifers’ who refer to themselves as human beings should be required to define the term ‘life’. The right to ‘live’ includes more than just being able to breathe and have blood pressure.

#RewardWorkNotWealth
Wealth is, AS IT SHOULD BE, its own reward.
If taxing wealth is punishment for being wealthy, what is taxing middle and low income workers: punishment for not being wealthy?
Anecdotally, during a very recent visit to my local Walmart, I found many empty and half-empty shelves; but, just last weekend at my local Harbor Freight store, no shelf was empty, nor was there room on any of them for more products. Hmm 🤔, is this a manufactured food shortage?
@allareblessed Anything… That’s ANYTHING for another buck. As well made as they are, this new ‘policy’ should be a red flag for consumers that indicates a drop on the horizon in the quality of production. This is their ‘permission slip’.

…you’d respond to this much before I go on. I feel confident that you can see I have much more to say. I would prefer, however, to avoid making the same mistakes made by our venerable Fathers. As it is written: “…As is the mother, so is her daughter.” Ezekiel 16:44 (KJV)

It stands to reason as well as scrutiny that as it was at the first coming of Jesus the Christ, so it has become once again; but thus it was foretold in 2nd Thessalonians 2:11 and shouldn’t, therefore, surprise anyone. I’d be interested to know how… (next tweet)

…in the minutiae of Protestant infighting that’s responsible for dividing the ‘Church’ into its several denominations and the beginning (anew after Catholicism) of teaching for doctrines the commandments of men? (Next tweet)

Isn’t it safe to say that Christians and pseudo-Christians alike can be found worshiping both within and without all the organized denominations of Christianity; and that because of spiritual blindness, the institutional ‘Church’ has largely lost its way… (next tweet)

…capitalism. I’d ask: To what ‘Church’ do you refer? Is it the organized ‘institutional’ Church? Scripture bears witness to the existence of divisions even in the early ‘Church’ and you testified to ‘Evangelicals’ leaving a mainstream denomination recently. (Next tweet)

“The church has retreated largely into a kind of ‘how is it with me’ spirituality, which is just narcissism,…”
Narcissism indeed! Isn’t it also a manifestation of apostasy? You asked where the ‘Church’ is as it relates to systemic racism, and corporate… (next tweet)

At least you branded the heretics for their heresy. You even described the failure of the ‘Church’ as one that “didn’t confront the Christian Right,” and had left that ‘work’ to certain “secular fundamentalists.” As you went on, you said: (next tweet)

From there, he continued and after what I presume was intended as an explanation, he concluded with:
“I think there is a need for it but I don’t know that the institutional church is going to give it to us.”
I’d like to say more that just ‘bravo, Chris’… (next tweet)

I’ve followed Chris for a long time. During one of his recent ‘talks’ in answer to a question from the audience, he said the following:

@Booker4KY No time left. Better things have all but disappeared. No finding any wings. Distant roads have quit calling to deaf ears. No time for a Summer rain. No time for my watch and chain. No time for revolving doors. No time for the killing floors. No time at all. G’bye in the Fall.
