I see some of the people who say deport them all are upset because Milo got deported. Fun fact: deport them all means deport that all, even those people on 'your' side who are here illegally.
I have zero issue with this deportation. If he was here illegally he needs to be sent back and try to get legal. Visa overstays are as bad as illegal crossings. 4 of the 9/11 terrorists were visa overstays.
@Pastor_Gabe "For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s."
Purity & obedience is unto God & for God. Being sanctified will bless others, but I agree, "a better spouse" is not the goal, it's loving God with all your heart & mind.
There are more people enslaved today than at any point in human history and 70% of them are women and girls.
Slavery did not end. It evolved. And it is still happening, everywhere.
An open letter to @benshapiro, @andrewklavan, and @michaeljknowles:
You have publicly wronged a good man, Trevor Sheatz.
Each of you is a conservative leader. Many of us respect you for your contributions to public life in different ways. However, you have failed to honor the truth in this instance, and you have brought great shame to a young husband and his wife. You have held them up publicly to severe scorn, and people have sadly followed suit.
Here is the truth, men. Ashley Sheatz has shared her conversion testimony for years. As one example, the screenshot below is from an article she wrote in May 2020 for a website I edited (it was called Reformanda and is no longer operating). I refer you to it for clarity.
Of her own volition, Ashley shared about her deliverance from promiscuity, the occult, and doing hard drugs. These things wrecked and ruined her life. Again, Ashley was clear as crystal about her sexual sin, and said more about it in the 2020 article she wrote than Trevor did in the X post you tore to shreds on air. She has publicly talked about her deliverance from sexual sin on numerous occasions. (Nor did Trevor call his wife derogatory words--it's really disappointing that you all collectively presented him as doing so.)
Ashley does all this--from what I know--not to be salacious or get clicks. (Nor does Trevor.) She does so to warn others about the destructiveness of sin, and even more than this, the redeeming power of the blood of Jesus. Ashley, with her husband Trevor, is a born again believer. I won't speak for her, but as a friend of her and Trevor, I know that she lives to magnify the mercy of God in her life.
This letter is not written in fury or pique. I write it in love to each of you men to ask you to correct the record and consider the ungraciousness of your remarks about Trevor Sheatz. You are each a respected public figure; your words get carry a great deal of weight, far more than I have or Trevor has or Ashley has. You have wronged a good man, and you simply do not have your facts right about Ashley Sheatz's willingness to testify publicly to the power of Christ over her sin. You have passed judgment on a sweet young couple without taking the time to back up your pronouncements with research.
In sum, you need the same forgiveness we all do. You need the blood of Jesus to cover you. You do not need to be a slightly better person, or a more committed devotee of religion. You need to be born again, to trust Jesus as your Lord and Savior, and to repent of all your sin. You and I are no different; we are great sinners all, but Christ is a great Savior.
May God work in your hearts to lead you to this place if he has not.
Best,
Owen Strachan
Only a few hundred, mostly women with children, left. 3,000 citizens ended up dying.
Literal nuns were killed, and that is beyond tragic, but ultimately France became free - at a very high price. War is messy. But evil is not taken out over tea & biscuits & diplomacy.

Making peace with evil is not attaining true peace. Freedom is not free, liberty comes at a price. In June 1944, Caen France became "the martyr of liberty". 73% of Caen was destroyed by allied bombing. But it meant liberation for nazi-occupied France. D-Day was the turning point.
Caen was destroyed, but it was the objective of the D Day invasion to control the Normandy region and disadvantage the nazi occupiers as quickly as possible. On June 6th, 1944, the French citizens ignored the Allied leaflets calling civilians to leave the city.
The members of the Iranian Women’s National Football Team are under significant pressure and ongoing threat from the Islamic Republic. As a result of their brave act of civil disobedience in refusing to sing the current regime’s national anthem, they face dire consequences should they return to Iran.
I call on the Australian government to ensure their safety and give them any and all needed support.
@sovereignbrah I remember when you basically called Elon Musk the Second Beast. And yet you post on his platform. I remember when you said "we are so back" after the election and yet basically call Trump the anti-Christ.
@BraedenSorbo Dude, your response is the equivalent of telling a person who has been starved (nearly to death by their oppressors) who is enjoying cake now that they should "watch their calories". Absolutely tone deaf. Bad timing.
Less than 2 months ago regime thugs were pouring into hospitals, executing wounded protesters in cold blood and arresting the doctors and nurses for treating them.
2 years ago the regime was gassing schoolgirls in their classrooms for daring to protest for women's rights.
Hypocrisy doesn't come close.
Iranian here. Oh shut up Sarah.
Where were you two months ago when agents of the Islamic Republic were going into hospitals, executing wounded people, and sending patients to the morgue while they were still alive?
And even now, any harm that comes to schools or hospitals is caused by the Islamic Republic itself.
Just Shut up Sarah, shut up.
