Speak Up Before VA Health Care Is Gutted
While controversy swirls around last week's mass firing of 1,000 Department of Veterans Affairs' employees, a far greater threat to veterans' health care is going completely unnoticed.

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out. Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation. Say equity, which a just society should pursue. Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

if I understand American politics correctly, progressivism is something that requires 60 senate votes to work, while national conservatism doesn’t require any votes at all

He's sticking to the script he was given by the Kremlin. Domestic issues are irrelevant when your objective as undercover KGB is to weaken America's diplomatic power around the globe, beginning with our own trusted allies. All of this goes back to Russia and Putin.

I think we should be worried. But I must admit ... as it all comes down around us in a curious cascade of unexpected connections and collapse, we are learning so much about how it was put together when it was working. So much interplay and connections! #GlobalWarming
We should be very worried.

It may just be a distraction, but it's not without serious consequences. It has made it very clear to the rest of the world that the USA is no longer an ally that can be relied on or trusted. This is not a small thing.

Good morning and Happy Thursday to everyone who is determined to turn up the volume and EXPOSE all of the brutal, deadly consequences of abortion bans in America. They're not "pro-life." They're pro controlling women's bodies.

Where Christian nationalism is strongest, that’s where the vote went for Donald Trump. The correlation is amazingly strong. So was it the economy…or was it something left unsaid 🧐 open.substack.com/pub/christac...

It's the Christian Nationalism
I saw a piece yesterday from the always on point Professor Andrew Whitehead showing the correlation between Christian Nationalism and voting for Trump.

Pay attention to Oklahoma. Bibles in classrooms isn't the big story. The same legal teams behind the seeding of Dobbs are driving a case to create religious schools fully funded by the public & they've already petitioned the Supreme Court. Understandably, everyone was focused on the election.
