A Process 

a necessary ingredient for chaos.  A marxist playbook.  Religion is the enemy.  It protects life, marriage, and family.  It protects freedom.  Don’t let the village raise your child.  There is no room for religion in the village.  No room for God.  The Church alone teaches the sanctity of life, marriage, and family.  The laity alone can protect the Church from wolves in sheep’s clothing. Do your job.

  1. I wonder if you’d pay more attention if they were White moms and Navy vets and grandpas? Wake up and see that your Constitutional rights are being infringed on, as they have been for people of color since the foundation of this country. But if you didn’t care about them when they were Black and Asian and Indigenous, you might now if you know that now they’re coming for you.

    Please listen to Lieutenant General Honoré. It’ll only take you a few minutes.

      1. There’s no threat to you from me. There’s no threat to you from the protestors. There is a threat to your constitutional rights. Did you listen to the Lt. General?

  2. That’s a non-answer. Give him a listen, you respect him, don’t you? How about Tom Ridge, who said he’d resign before sending federal troops into American cities? Do you not value Posse Comitatis? Or do I value it more than you do?

    Have you heard of Republican Voters Against Trump? Surely you’ve heard of The Lincoln Project, headed by Republicans? Their commercials are powerful. The split in the GOP is open wide finally. This country is supposed to be a democratic republic, not an authoritarian dictatorship.

  3. This isn’t about me, so who you can’t respect matters not. Instead of personalizing it to me, maybe think about answering one of my points?

    This is about our country, and Trump can’t save it, because he’s the one destroying it.

  4. How fascist is this?

    “On Thursday, The New York Times reported that a pair of Netflix filmmakers shooting a behind-the-scenes documentary about President Donald Trump’s immigration policy were threatened by federal officials, ordered to delete footage unflattering to Immigration and Customs Enforcement Officers, and told to delay release of the documentary until after the 2020 election.”

    That’s the kind of thing I’m talking about. This is happening over and over in department after department after city after city. This isn’t how we’re supposed to be.

      1. Why would the filmmakers feel compelled to use, in response, “‘an encrypted messaging service to communicate with their production team,’ putting security cameras in their office, and concealing the hard drives on which they were storing raw footage?”

        Come on, chrys, he’s circumventing the Constitution at every opportunity. Do you know why Trump likes “acting” Cabinet members? Because they give him more “flexibility.” Here’s his quote: “I like acting. It gives me more flexibility. Do you understand that? I like acting. So we have a few that are acting. We have a great, great Cabinet…” He likes acting members because he can put in who he wants without having to have them confirmed by the Senate. Wolfe, who Lt. Gen. Honoré said should be run out of Washington, is the 5th. Cabinet head (2nd. acting) and has already gone over his allotted temporary tenure.

  5. I answered your comment here yesterday, with info that refutes your claim Democrats are blocking confirmations. They’re not. Trump is lagging in submitting nominations.

    Did it get hung up in your comment moderation or did it get lost somewhere in the system?

  6. I’ll try posting again what I tried posting yesterday. From Bloomberg:

    https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2020-04-16/democrats-aren-t-blocking-trump-s-nominations

    The most important thing to know about President Donald Trump’s out-of-nowhere threat to adjourn Congress and make recess appointments because Democrats are blocking his executive-branch nominees isn’t whether he can do it or whether he should. It’s that his complaint is entirely untrue: Democrats aren’t blocking his executive-branch nominees.

    This is just basic Senate procedure. Republicans hold a 53-to-47 majority, and also win tie votes because they hold the vice presidency. That means they have majorities in every committee, and they schedule final confirmation votes for every nominee who clears those committees.

    To be sure, Democrats can still stall this procedure … for two hours. So it’s entirely fair for the president to complain about that delay. And for Trump’s first few years, before the procedure was changed, Democrats were able to slow things down enough that not everyone could get through. But even then, Republicans were able to choose the order in which nominations were confirmed; now, without even the ability to slow the pipeline, Democrats have about zero say in the process unless there are defections from the other side.

    **In fact, there aren’t even a lot of blocked nominees at all. Of the 750 or so most important positions needing Senate confirmation, only 82 are currently under consideration. Of those, only a small number have been cleared by committee and are awaiting a floor vote. A much larger group, 165 in all, are still open because Trump hasn’t nominated anyone.**

    Despite what the president says, that’s not a lot of current nominees before the Senate by historical standards. And of course some of them were just recently nominated. All the rest are in limbo because of either Republican opposition or Republican indifference. Trump’s grievance, to the extent he has one, is with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and the Republicans. Not Democrats.

  7. Sorry about the block of text. Your program doesn’t keep paragraph breaks. If you click on the link, you can read it more easily.
