ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

If telling the troops not to follow illegal orders is “sedition,” what do we call colluding with the Kremlin to manipulate the U.S. President into advancing Russian interests over America’s?

I was just thinking about contributing to the "charity" Feeding America. Until I discovered that the salary for its CEO, Claire Babineaux-Fontenot, was approximately $949,866 in 2024, with her total compensation being $1,113,502. Apparently, feeding America isn't her top priority.

There is a reason why Witkoff did not want any officials with the State Dept or anyone else present during his many meetings w/Putin - he didn’t want witnesses to his treasonous behavior. Highly unusual, but makes perfect sense when you consider that he only cared about Russia.

In Ps. 121:5 today: 'The Lord is your shade at your right hand.' God brings us comfort in small ways. Shade in the dappled sunlight. Moments of clarity. Resilience for newness. Strength in St. Paul. Holy encouragement for the next steps. Shade is my prayer today.

In Ps.122: 7 today: 'Peace be within your walls & security within your towers.' Scripture pairs peace with security, peace with justice, or justice with mercy. The psalms seek the common good of both/and compassion. Divide and conquer never ends. Peace is my work today.

In Ps.123:3 today: 'Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy upon us, for we have had more than enough contempt.' God's is a mercy that calls us to be more. Mercy calls us forward to newness. We have been divided needlessly. Build social capital. Mercy is my work today.

„Quiet, Piggy!“ Just think about that for a minute, and what it means to live in a time when a President can assault a woman in public like that without any consequences.
It‘s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.

The social contract is dead. American public health once operated on a simple agreement where the government listened to experts and protected the citizenry. It worked.

In Ps. 124:7 today: 'The snare is broken and we have escaped.' What Exodus is needed today? From manipulation by algorithms? Oligarchy? Racism? Division? Poverty? Lawless empire? Paul writes, 'for freedom Christ has set us free' (Gal. 5:1). Escape is my prayer today.

In Ps.126:5 today: 'Let those who plant with tears reap the harvest with joyful shouts.' So much trauma is being planted. Grief. Loss. God is with us in our woundedness. Christ is the wounded healer. Rest with seed time. May we reap solidarity. Newness. Reap is my prayer today.
