“The typical [Christianity Today] approach is to stay above the fray and allow Christians with different political convictions to make their arguments in the public square .... We want CT to be a place that welcomes Christians from across the political spectrum ....”
“That said, we do feel it necessary from time to time to make our own opinions on political matters clear—always, as Graham encouraged us, doing so with both conviction and love.”

christianitytoday.com/ct/2019/decemb…
“We love and pray for our president, as we love and pray for leaders (as well as ordinary citizens) on both sides of the political aisle.”

christianitytoday.com/ct/2019/decemb…
“Let’s grant this to the president: The Democrats have had it out for him from day one .... This has led many to suspect not only motives but facts in these recent impeachment hearings.”

christianitytoday.com/ct/2019/decemb…
“But the facts in this instance are unambiguous: The president of the United States attempted to use his political power to coerce a foreign leader to harass and discredit one of the president’s political opponents.”

christianitytoday.com/ct/2019/decemb…
“That is not only a violation of the Constitution; more importantly, it is profoundly immoral.”

christianitytoday.com/ct/2019/decemb…
“The reason many are not shocked about this is that this president has dumbed down the idea of morality in his administration. He has hired and fired a number of people who are now convicted criminals.”

christianitytoday.com/ct/2019/decemb…
“He himself has admitted to immoral actions in business and his relationship with women, about which he remains proud.“

christianitytoday.com/ct/2019/decemb…
“His Twitter feed alone—with its habitual string of mischaracterizations, lies, and slanders—is a near perfect example of a human being who is morally lost and confused.”

christianitytoday.com/ct/2019/decemb…
“We believe the impeachment hearings have made it absolutely clear, in a way the Mueller investigation did not, that President Trump has abused his authority for personal gain and betrayed his constitutional oath.”

christianitytoday.com/ct/2019/decemb…
“The impeachment hearings have illuminated the president’s moral deficiencies for all to see. This damages the institution of the presidency, damages the reputation of our country, and damages both the spirit and the future of our people.“

christianitytoday.com/ct/2019/decemb…
“To the many evangelicals who continue to support Mr. Trump in spite of his blackened moral record, we might say this: Remember who you are and whom you serve. Consider how your justification of Mr. Trump influences your witness to your Lord and Savior.”

christianitytoday.com/ct/2019/decemb…
“Consider what an unbelieving world will say if you continue to brush off Mr. Trump’s immoral words and behavior in the cause of political expediency.”

christianitytoday.com/ct/2019/decemb…
“If we don’t reverse course now, will anyone take anything we say about justice and righteousness with any seriousness for decades to come?”

christianitytoday.com/ct/2019/decemb…
“Can we say with a straight face that abortion is a great evil that cannot be tolerated and, with the same straight face, say that the bent and broken character of our nation’s leader doesn’t really matter in the end?”

christianitytoday.com/ct/2019/decemb…
“We have reserved judgment on Mr. Trump for years now. Some have criticized us for our reserve. But when it comes to condemning the behavior of another, patient charity must come first.”

christianitytoday.com/ct/2019/decemb…
“So we have done our best to give evangelical Trump supporters their due, to try to understand their point of view, to see the prudential nature of so many political decisions they have made regarding Mr. Trump.”

christianitytoday.com/ct/2019/decemb…
“To use an old cliché, it’s time to call a spade a spade, to say that no matter how many hands we win in this political poker game, we are playing with a stacked deck of gross immorality and ethical incompetence.”

christianitytoday.com/ct/2019/decemb…
“And just when we think it’s time to push all our chips to the center of the table, that’s when the whole game will come crashing down. It will crash down on the reputation of evangelical religion and on the world’s understanding of the gospel.”

christianitytoday.com/ct/2019/decemb…
“And it will come crashing down on a nation of men and women whose welfare is also our concern.”

“[T]he fact that senators swear an oath to ‘bear true faith’ to the Constitution, and the fact that the Constitution requires the Senate to ‘try all Impeachments,’ should require them to hold a real trial with live witnesses.”

“But if that isn’t enough to persuade them, Republican senators should consider at least two significant practicalities.”
wapo.st/2tzXJ7d
“The first is that the Ukraine investigation is only three months old. ... A remarkably strong case was assembled in an unusually short time, even in the face of extraordinary obstructionism from the administration ....”

25 million people live in metropolitan Seoul.
“Why is Seoul so close to the North Korean border?” the president asked.
“‘They have to move,’ Trump said. ... [O]fficials were initially unsure if the president was joking. But Trump then repeated the line. ‘They have to move!’”

It’s pretty clear that @petestrzok has an extremely strong slander case against @realDonaldTrump for the latter’s false claim last night that @NatSecLisa obtained a restraining order against Strzok.
First of all, Trump’s statement was false. You can take @NatSecLisa’s word for it (below), but obviously if it were true we would have seen the public record of it long ago.
Second, Trump’s statement was defamatory, because it necessarily implied that Strzok had engaged in improper conduct that warranted a restraining order.

Times you construct a tweet and then take a close look at the Quality of Thought of the fellow that’s about to draw a response from you & you sensibly say, “Naaa. Not today. Not ever”.
That some also have a Twitter handle must not entitle them to a place in your space. Ignore.
I started off here mostly engaging to enlighten or disciple those whose habit was to revel in Ignorance, Falsehood, Slander and Malicious assault.
Not worth it at all.
Take it in as part of the Cost of Owning and Using your Voice for the things that matter to you. So, ignore.
Never allow anyone no matter the quantum of Bile they spread, ever assume the power to determine what you choose to do with your Voice.

I am in awe of all the young woman on this Street who do their Best to Add Value to our society by using their Voice.

Don’t ever stop. Don’t.

1. The whole essence of Illuminare is intelligent faith. #Illuminare
2. Faith is not unintelligent. Jesus didn’t die for robots. #Illuminare
3. When the Bereans did a cross-analysis of the claims made by Paul the Bible called it nobility. Acts 17:11. Intelligent faith is noble. #Illuminare

If John Roberts upholds citizenship question on 2020 census it will be crystal clear that the only institution he’s committed to preserving is white supremacy

My new piece for @MotherJones

motherjones.com/politics/2019/…
@MotherJones John Roberts has been trying to roll back voting rights for people of color since he worked in Reagan DOJ. He wrote opinion gutting Voting Rights Act. Upholding census citizenship question would cement legacy of rigging democracy to preserve white power motherjones.com/politics/2019/…
@MotherJones Upholding census citizenship question, especially in light of smoking gun evidence showing GOP gerrymandering mastermind pushed q to benefit GOP/whites, “would be as monumental as the Shelby decision” gutting Voting Rights Act, says @Sifill_LDF

Thread: Arguing with a Lefty About the Welfare State and More, Part III

1. … and the beat goes on in a seemingly endless discussion (argument?) with a lefty on a host of important topics. This guy just seemed impervious to facts and logic, but I gave it the old college try.
2. Part I of the debated focused on the welfare state and the effects of government meddling in economy here.
3. Part II covered the political class and the effect of tax rates on economic growth.

This is a #Thread about one of the many trolls who is targeting #Native and #Indigenous @Twitter accounts.

The account #@Blondi65003273 is interacting with #NativeAmericans by #JustAskingQuestions

Nothing obviously provocative.

#NativeTwitter
One of Blondi’s followers is another account that claims to be #Native #Ojibwe
However, one of her first posts demonstrate her to be not your average concerned Wisconsin #Native from the North Woods. She posts a picture of a dismembered body that is supposed to convince voters that we need a stronger immigration policy to deter crime.
