Biskupic bemoans lack of “moderate center” on SCOTUS. I have thoughts:
1. Justice Scalia once said: “What is a moderate interpretation of the text? Halfway between what it really means and what you’d like it to mean?" 1/

Ninety percent of foreign aid never actually made it to its intended destination.
In other words, only about 10% is delivered properly; the rest is laundered and redistributed until it ultimately makes its way back to the back pockets of members of U.S. Congress.

“If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.”
Colossians 3:1-3
@Vicar1973 Amen! And please remember Faramir from LOTR: “War must be, while we defend our lives against a destroyer who would devour all; but I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend.”
"Fight for your brothers, your sons, your daughters, your wives, and your homes.”
-- Nehemiah 4:14
“The true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him, but because he loves what is behind him.”

@MattZeitlin Very true. I have to give the ultimate nod to Qatar 2022. Slaves built the stadiums. Host pretended they’d have air conditioned stadiums, then reneged and forced a winter World Cup. Every game: “Penalty for Argentina.” Insanely corrupt!
1—Walk out to the 90s Bulls intro song
2—Beat Paraguay 4-1
3—Beat Australia 2-0
4—Blast Free Bird after each goal
5—Win the group after 2 games
6—Pray as a team after the game
7—Sing Take Me Home, Country Roads with the whole stadium
This is the way🇺🇸 https://t.co/ZoeXScrvr5
“‘A great Shadow has departed,’ said Gandalf, and then he laughed, and the sound was like music, or like water in a parched land; and as he listened the thought came to Sam that he had not heard laughter, the pure sound of merriment, for days upon days without count. It fell upon his ears like the echo of all the joys he had ever known. But he himself burst into tears. Then, as a sweet rain will pass down a wind of spring and the sun will shine out the clearer, his tears ceased, and his laughter welled up, and laughing he sprang from his bed.”
—J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King
I've been to bookstores all over the world, and as far as I can tell, what we've done at Landmark Booksellers in Franklin, TN with The Great Wall, presenting the Great Books in chronological order, is something no other store is doing. Anyone know of another?
By the way, back in World War II, there were pastors then too who said that we should not oppose Hitler.
These churches had been infiltrated by the Communist Party USA. And at the beginning of the war, Hitler and Stalin were allies. They were known as the American Peace Mobilization.
So please consider who today’s pastors may be working for.
Yesterday was my final day as Director of National Intelligence. I declassified and released never-before-seen documents exposing the truth about Fauci directing millions of US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024. It’s time you know the truth. Go to https://t.co/tVwWp0TxZ4 to see for yourself.
