There are two books that helped me to understand the ideology of this current political moment:

Money, Lies, and God: Inside the Movement to Destroy American Democracy by Katherine Stewart, https://a.co/d/4TQHYbs

and

The Violent Take It by Force: The Christian Movement That Is Threatening Our Democracy by Michael D. Taylor, https://a.co/d/2EE7pBX.

As Dr. King stated: " The greatest blasphemy of the whole ugly process was that the white man ended up making God his partner in the exploitation of the Negro (people of color and religious others). What greater heresy has religion known? Ethical Christianity vanished and the moral nerve of religion was atrophied. This terrible distortion sullied the essential nature of Christianity."

Dr. Eddie,

Great reminder about the need for us to deny our consent! I've also heard that the thing we need to repeat is that what they are doing -- the ICE raids, sending the military to cities, weaponizing the Justice Department, and all the rest, is UNAMERICAN!

How is your mother?

I'm sincerely confused about where the Palestinians will live- can anyone describe the physical borders , and size of the territory?

MTG is sounding reasonable because her family is being impacted by this. See they don't care until it touches them personally. https://www.beloud.com/news/124650820?fbclid=IwdGRjcANWczRleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHi-BCsd1CzJqn1zhptCBU7OpaNQX2fE4CkjO7UmdhzNCRfl_P-xgmCBlnyZR_aem_g7KmfupPPSEFnLBbirnL7Q
