Other elements may vary but I believe to my bones this is the bottom line in every situation where a Christian leader has lived in gross hypocrisy, carrying on a double life, for years on end:
They are out of fellowship with Jesus. Period. YOU CANNOT SUSTAIN THAT IN FELLOWSHIP.
Pence's team does not agree with the Trump lawyer's assessment that Trump was concerned about Pence's safety. Trump didn't call him that day -- or for five days after that. No one else on Trump's team called as Pence was evacuated to one room & another, with screaming mob nearby.
Trump lawyer refusing to answer question about whether Trump won the election and whether Trump was perpetuating a lie that the election was stolen from him. Speaks volumes.
There is a way to present—with excellence—this really crappy case. The fact that these well-heeled, overpaid, supposedly elite and experienced litigators cannot pull it off says everything you ever need to know about inequity and the imbalance of power in this country.
A bi-partisan moment. Senators all stood up to pay tribute to Officer Goodman and Capitol Police.
If they want to honor the bravery of the men and women who literally saved Senators’ lives that day, they should vote to hold Trump accountable. Police died and were injured.
The first Latina Supreme Court Justice will administer the oath of office to the first woman Vice President, also a woman of color. My little heart is bursting from the historical significance. 🇺🇸
The silence of the Evangelicals, the All lives Matter crowd, the Anti Kaepernick crowd, the Blue Lives Matter crowd, who called Black Lives Matter violent thugs. You all don’t have anything to say when insurrectionists attack the seat of American government in an attempted coup ?
To my colleagues in the press. Words matter. Do not use euphemisms to explain away what we all saw yesterday. This was an attempt to undermine American democracy incited by a defeated president of the United States. This was an insurrection, domestic terrorism, an attempted coup.
For the next two weeks the nation is at risk with Trump as president. He is unbalanced, vengeful-unfit. He cannot be trusted with the powers of the presidency. It is finally time to prioritize the national welfare. Via the 25th Amendment or impeachment, he should be removed. Now.
