"Dear white evangelicals, I was wrong"
by Rick Pidcock (2004 graduate of Bob Jones University) at the Baptist News.
Excerpt:
"The other day, I saw an image of a Christian pastor falling backward as masked, armed soldiers pepper sprayed and shot him in the head with nonlethal bullets on the streets of Chicago. His crime was simply being present in and among the least of these by peacefully protesting government violence against immigrants. This use of force by the government against Christians is exactly what you’ve warned us about for years."
These Republicans I could vote for
Read this article, originally posted at the Wall Street Journal. I like the looks of this organization called
Our Republican Legacy. The article is very rational stating their position and highlighting some issues with the current administration. Here is an excerpt from the article.
"We believe that a responsible, conservative party in this country can be defined by five key principles that Republicans have historically championed, whatever their other differences. MAGA has turned these tenets upside down. But they are our party’s foundation, and we have adopted them for Our Republican Legacy—a nonprofit advocacy organization we established last year as a home for Republicans in exile."

We the People
Consider the two well known phrases that alude to the United States of America having a goverment that serves its citizens. Not a government to make the President powerful, not a government to make the President rich, not a goverment to instill fear in the population, not a goverment that shakes down corporations for the benefit of the President. Not a goverment that caters to the billionaries. Not a goverment that vilifies half the population because they are not Republicans. What has the Trump admistration actually done for the benefit of the common citizens?
From Google AI:
U.S. Constitution: The U.S. Constitution begins with "We the People" to affirm that the government exists to serve its citizens. It establishes the principles of democracy and self-government but does not contain the specific wording of Lincoln's famous quote.
Lincoln's Gettysburg Address: This speech, delivered by Abraham Lincoln in November 1863, contains the full phrase: "...that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth"
