This is what a 34 week old baby looks like outside the womb.
Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey just legalized killing an unborn child at this age. For no reason, just because someone wants to
They call it “reproductive rights” because they refuse to call it what it is: murder
In 2019, in an effort to communicate why Christians should care about politics, I came up with this mantra: “Politics matters because policy matters because people matter. Politics affects policy, policy affects people, and people matter.”
Abortion is perhaps the most obvious example of that truth. The legalized slaughter of babies should be enough to animate every Christian to do everything possible, both personally and politically, to join the fight.
I have no tolerance for the Christians - and especially the pastors - who see abortion as “too divisive” and therefore a subject to be avoided or caveated to death. We are literally talking about helpless babies being poisoned and dismembered. It is the child sacrifice of old, just euphemized and sterilized. If you can’t speak up now, you wouldn’t have spoken up then.
For all of the black square posting, social justice posturing of Mushy Middle Christians, when it comes to something as tangible and as clear as abortion, suddenly they’re full of nuance and trepidation.
Let me break it you: abortion isn’t nuanced. They’re just cowards.
And it’s not because they “don’t want to be political,” it’s because they don’t want to be Biblical. You can’t even get through Genesis 1 without seeing the sanctity of life, the definition of marriage, and the reality of male and female.
For the Christian, these aren’t just “culture war” issues. They’re Biblical ones. And if you won’t engage in them, it’s not because you don’t want to be divisive, it’s because you don’t want to be a Christian.
Christians have stood against the slaughter and objectification of children for millennia. When we stop, darkness prevails and thousands of babies endure slow and torturous murders at the hands of bloodthirsty merchants of death.
Wake up
The conservatives on here denying the affordability crisis are engaged in what I can only describe as an act of political suicide. They're also lying, which is the worst part. Grocery prices are up. Housing. Energy. Insurance. Health care. Basic living expenses. It's real. It's happening. Denying it just makes you look out of touch, deceitful, and untrustworthy. It's also a completely unnecessary and unforced error. No credible person is claiming that Trump caused these price surges. You don't have to disgrace yourself by denying the reality in front of your face just to prove your loyalty to Trump. The causes for the most part are multi faceted, complicated, and longstanding. That's true. So let's discuss them. Debating whether the problem exists at all -- or, if it does exist, whether it counts as a problem -- is a total waste of time, and makes you look like a shill and a fraud.
🚨 SHOCKING: RFK Jr. just dropped this on live national TV
Lyme disease.
RSV (the #1 killer of American kids).
COVID-19. All of them came from gain-of-function research. His exact words: They’ve been engineering the diseases that are destroying us… and then calling it “science.” This isn’t a conspiracy theory anymore.
This is the HHS Secretary saying it out loud.
“Lyme disease almost certainly came from these experiments and is now devastating our country.”
“RSV came from a laboratory, which is now the biggest killer of children in our country.”
“And of course, the COVID-19 pandemic…
All of those have been linked credibly to gain-of-function research.”
“It’s something with enormous costs and no proven benefits.”
@ArtPeacock@akafaceUS This. And also- a lot of suburban neighborhoods the streets are private and not public and the HOA may have their own rules. 🤷🏻♀️
I calculated what it would cost to replace everything my wife does as a stay-at-home mom.
The answer: $131,130 a year.
Here's how I calculated that amount.
My wife genuinely loves being home with our four children. She homeschools them, manages our home, cooks for our family, gardens, and invests her life in raising our kids.
But every so often, she asks whether she should get a job to help financially.
Not because she wants a career outside the home, but because our culture can make stay-at-home mothers feel like they are not contributing unless they bring home a paycheck.
I always remind her:
“You already have a career. You work for our family.”
She may not receive a paycheck, but much of what she does saves us money we would otherwise have to earn, pay taxes on, and then spend hiring other people.
So I ran the numbers using typical rates in the Des Moines, Iowa area:
HOUSEKEEPER
12 hours/week × $20.74/hour
$12,942 per year
NANNY FOR FOUR CHILDREN
50 hours/week × $23/hour
$59,800 per year
HOMESCHOOL EDUCATOR
5 hours/day × 180 school days × $25.03/hour
$22,527 per year
PERSONAL SHOPPER
4 hours/week × $20.58/hour
$4,281 per year
PERSONAL CHEF
2 hours/day × $38.33/hour
$27,981 per year
PERSONAL GARDENER
3 hours/week × 30 weeks × $40/hour
$3,600 per year
TOTAL ESTIMATED ANNUAL REPLACEMENT VALUE:
$131,130
This is not meant to be a literal salary calculation. Some responsibilities overlap, but that is part of the point: replacing what one stay-at-home mother does would require hiring several different people.
And this still does not account for sick children, overnight care, appointments, curriculum planning, discipline, emotional support, family scheduling, or the constant mental load of knowing what everyone needs.
My wife may not receive a paycheck, but she creates enormous value for our family every day.
A paycheck is not the only proof that someone is contributing.
Thank a stay-at-home mom today.
I want fucking high profile arrests.
That’s what I voted for.
I didn’t vote for Anthony Fauci to go in front of a Senate hearing to plead the 5th over 100 times.
I didn’t vote millions of illegals to cross our border with still no accountability.
I didn’t vote to continue sending money overseas to nations that don’t support us.
I want to stay positive but at some point, we need real action.
The Uniparty is still alive and well.
The father of the 10-year-old boy who was saved by lifeguard Ryder Williams in Santa Cruz says his son was seconds from dying.
Sumit Rai says his son, Nathaniel, lost consciousness during the incident & says his daughter is traumatized after witnessing what happened.
"Ryder's only 16 years old himself. He's a teenager and for him to take that kind of leadership and go out and have that type of courage and bravery to go out and save someone else's life is remarkable, and I cannot thank him enough," Rai said.
"We got lucky that he didn't die, but this outcome could've been very different. I am incredibly and extraordinarily grateful to the lifeguard. He's the only reason that my son is alive."
🚨 HOLY SMOKES. FBI Director Kash Patel reveals **3 MILLION** p*dophile accounts on the Tor network were taken down, plus a nearly 100% SURGE in child predator arrests
"7,200 kids that we found that got to go home. 3,400 child predators and traffickers arrested. That's up 99% from the best year Biden ever had. That means kids are being protected at levels that are simply unheard of!"
"And that means this FBI, here's another thing. We didn't just do the physical work on the streets. We went to the cyber community and we dismantled 3 million pedophile accounts off the Tor network where these predators prey on our children and think they can hide from this FBI."
"They can't. We are going to the ends of the earth and the cyber realm to make sure our most precious commodity kids are safeguarded."
"And the numbers speak for themselves because the FBI are putting kids first." @FBIDirectorKash@kayleighmcenany
