The Trump/McConnel machine is returning to NC, where the GOP has blocked healthcare expansion for 500,000 ppl who will be hurt even more by coronavirus. They have denied living wages to hundreds of thousands of low wage workers & blocked union rights.
They’ve drastically cut money for public ed & attacked teachers, engaged in surgical racism thru voter suppression & gerrymandering, & vehemently attacked gay people, transgender young people & Latino immigrants.
This morning my Lenten meditation came from II Peter chapter 2: “For they mouth empty, boastful words and, by appealing to the lustful desires of the flesh, they entice people who are just escaping from those who live in error.
They promise them freedom, while they themselves are slaves of depravity for people are slaves to whatever has mastered them. It would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than to have known it and then to turn their backs on the sacred command...
that was passed on to them. Of them the proverbs are true: “A dog returns to its vomit,” and, “A sow that is washed returns to her wallowing in the mud.”
