Why aren’t the Founders fellas talking about their own houses and the SBC first? Let’s see them make the case that women, including their spouses, shouldn’t serve as Messengers or vote in congregational meetings.

Because apparently the answer to “By What Standard?” is straight up misogyny.

Who knew that they love xenophobia more than they love free markets?

Answer: All of us or at least all of us who have know this stands in the tradition of Jim Crow laws and redlining.
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

We need more white guys who are willing to learn from their massive screwups like Lee Raybon.

I make it a point to not speak ill of the dead.

In other news, some people may find it noteworthy that Dick Cheney opposed Donald Trump. I’ll say this: grift knows grift.

If you’re inclined to think that the stock market equals the economy remember that major corporations can cut thousands of jobs and see their stock price jump. What’s good for shareholders doesn’t track with what’s good for American workers and their families.

I don’t know who needs to hear this (with the obvious exception of Ross Douthat), but there’s nothing conservative about destroying the East Wing of the White House.

Because of course Pete Hegseth’s Department of Defense would receive private funding from someone trying to bury anything related to Epstein.

30,000 people. Real people - many with families that they were supporting and leading and many were also Veterans.

And the VA social media account uses them to score cheap points on the previous administration.

I didn’t serve my country in war to see this grotesque partisanship from the VA.
Let all naysayers know: DeptVetAffairs is performing better under President Trump than it did during the Biden Administration – even with 30,000 less employees.

In an increasingly consumeristic age, being a part of a small congregation evokes the familial - we didn’t choose this as much as we were born (or reborn) into it.

Small really is beautiful.

Twenty freed hostages is good news no matter who the President of the United States and Prime Minister of Israel are.

I am not fundamentally opposed to the US allowing its allies to have bases on US soil. I’ve stayed at US posts in Saudi Arabia and Kyrgyzstan, and honestly the rich irony of allowing Qatar to have a post in Doug Wilson’s backyard is kind of wonderful.

Anyone else listen to that Ross Douthat interview of Doug Wilson and think that Ross had to dig deep to avoid repeatedly laughing at Wilson for being an imbecile?

Trump: I actually think the president would be blamed if there is a shutdown. I think it would be a tremendously negative mark on the President of the United States. He's the one that has to get people together

This mentality is why four Michiganders were murdered by a US Marine.
Hegseth: "A few months ago I was at the White House when President Trump announced his liberation day for America's trade policy. It was a landmark day. Well, today is another liberation day. The liberation of America's warriors ... you kill people and break things for a living."

Could’ve been an email.
Hegseth: "We unleash overwhelming and punishing violence on the enemy. We also don't fight with stupid rules of engagement. We untie the hands of our warfighters to intimidate, demoralize, hunt, and kill the enemies of our country. No more politically correct and overbearing rules of engagement."

We need a rewrite on The Killers’ lyrics to read:

He doesn’t look a thing like Jesus//
But he talks like a Republican//
Like you imagined when you were dumb
Conservative White Christians will worship serial predators,
career criminals,
neo-Nazi influencers,
race-baiting podcasters,
xenophobic nationalist politicians,
and homophobic celebrity evangelists.

They worship just about anybody but Jesus.
