PASTOR LORAN LIVINGSTON (@CentralChurchNC): “There has never been a Christian nation, and never will be. You don’t live in one now. A Christian nation wouldn’t have killed and displaced 20 million Native Americans, or thought owning slaves was pleasing to God.”

Kurt Russell and John Carpenter shook the pillars of heaven and battled studio execs to get this cult classic to the screen. Trivia, behind-the-scenes, that kinda stuff.

Former President Barack Obama finally acknowledged Trump's bizarre, creepy obsession with him during an appearance on ALL THE SMOKE with Matt Barnes & Stephen Jackson today.
One of the hosts pointed out that the "leader of this current administration is still very fascinated" with President Obama and his family, despite the fact he's been "out of office [for] nearly 10 years now."
"Look, you gotta ask him what it is — the obsession ... I obviously, you know, have a room in his head —," Obama began.
"Rent free," one of the hosts cut in.
"A suite in his head," Obama agreed. "But the thing about it is that was always clear to me. Look, first of all, when I was president, the last thing I had time to do was worry about what somebody said, somebody said, or what my predecessor did, they're gone."
"I got work to do," Obama continued. "It's hard to describe how, if you're doing the job right every day, you got five, ten things that feel hard, and you have to be constantly focused. The idea that I'd be worrying about came before somebody who came before, and me trying to measure, you know, like what's he done today.
"Look, constantly worrying about that is a strange thing to me. It shows me somebody who's not focused on the American people and the job they're supposed to do," he added.
This is what real leadership looks like — calm, unruffled, and unconcerned with petty grudges.

One of the greatest segments in TNA history. 😭😭😭😭
Mike Tenay breaking and laughing halfway through gets me every time. 😂😂
Same people who claim a Black woman who’d been the AG and Senator for the state with the largest population and economy and who’d served as VP was unqualified to be president are trying to convince us a plumber with no college degree should be DHS Secretary. That’s real DEI.
At least there’s no questions about it anymore. He finally made it plain and simple for everyone. So, please stop saying it’s not what or who he is. If you support him, you support that! No excuses!
