Today, I see angry young men online LARPing as Catholics, often for the aesthetic. They celebrate strength and hate the weak. The use slurs against the disabled and fantasize about enacting Crusader violence against their enemies. I wish the Pope would speak directly on this.

Please stop overestimating what a democratic Congress can do. The oligarchs are spending money to make you think a Dem Congress can arrest people and hold trials and pass laws without a POTUS signature so that you’ll be disappointed when they don’t do stuff they can’t do. Don’t fall for it.

This is a thoroughly sourced article and clearly explains how the qui-pro-quo mechanism works. Although not surprising, most of DC is just a grift. What T has done, is exploit the illegal systems already in place. Hoping the FBI can get back to this case with the new administration.

Derek Chauvin was unjustly convicted of murder, therefore he should be freed. 

The facts show that he was not the cause of death, nor did he at any time intend for a death to occur. Whatever else he may be, he is not a murderer.
