The widow pleaded for forgiveness and love. Trump preached hate. Is America the land of hate now? Look to the White House and you will see the source of America’s rage.

What I find so hard to process is that so many people cannot see or reason that the hate rhetoric from the White House is false. Why can’t they see the manipulation?

Mark Twain was right, “it is easier to fool people than convince them they have been fools.”

Here's an article about an extremely right wing White Christian Nationalist church in my home state of WA. Dominic Bonny has been reporting on them for years and their leader is using Kirk to up the crazy and hate to 11. And having one church isn't bad enough, they are planting another church in GA where I live now.

Mary, I appreciate you’re continuing to move the rocks so the ugly is out in the open for all to see. Thanks for continuing to shine the light!

For the first time, I had to scan some of Mary's words. Too bloody painful to hear. I ignored everything about it yesterday. It was much worse than I thought. My oh my, are we in a mess.

A sobering read. Trump, Miller and their MAGA faithful are making a martyr of a billionaire-funded college campus provocateur with a white supremacist, patriarchal ideology presented as “Christian” values - and using one young white man’s violent act to urge “war” against all MAGA opponents. We’ve seen versions of this script before, with different “enemies within”.

The trick now is pushing back against these incitements without giving the regime the pretext they’re yearning for to excuse more oppression. Coming up: October 18: No Kings.
