I’m going to tell the truth on this one.

THREAD
Vaccines and Evangelicals
1/
Saturday, I finally got out to play some golf at the urging of my BFF, a Republican and Evangelical Christian. Like other times I’ve posted, some of you will say “How can you possibly be friends with a Republican like that”. Yes, I get those comments
2/
Our conversation centered around easy topics, Katie, my dog who passed and upcoming Easter service. We also talked about the vaccine because I wanted to know if her church was like #BethelChurch in that many people attending aren’t getting vaccinated.
3/
First, she and I believe the same thing. Bethel Church isn’t a real church of god, but a place to dumb down the Bible, embrace a type of product that has nothing to do with the God she knows and is grifting from it’s own people. Yes, she said that. I agree.
4/
Her husband, always says “But they give so much money back to Redding” and I just look at him and say “exactly”.
5/
My point here is that her Evangelical Church pastor urged everyone to believe in the science and get vaccinated so they can help others do the same. She got vaccinated because it was the right thing to do and it helps everyone.
She and I agree on this one too.
6/
I realize, there are Evangelical churches out there that spin a story to their parish, that take there money but don’t urge them to do the right thing. Those churches aren’t hard to find, it’s the churches that DO the right thing where the story isn’t always told.
7/
Maybe it’s because it’s a better headline to hear the skewed side, the sordid “I won’t get that vaccine” story because it sells better.
However, as I’ve said before, there is more information we agree on (Republicans/Democrats/etc.) than we disagree about.
8/
Those are the stories we need to hear about. Those are the stories that can help us heal.
But I’m not a journalist, just a truth teller.
When you listen to each other, you hear what they tell you.

@jemelehill is right.
This is the #GQP playbook.
Fox pushing false narratives about immigrants - ✅
Voter Suppression efforts to disenfranchise black/brown voters - ✅
Guns/shootings enmasse w/no chance of gun control - ✅
Violence Against Women increases w/no help from #GQP -✅ Image
All of these narratives are being pushed HARD right now, and know why?
Because we had an Insurrection and arrests are happening.
To ensure Joe gets nowhere with Congress and looks weak.
To continue to ride the donor support train for dollars while every #GQP congressperson
worries that they will be swept up in new indictments or crimes.
To make us RAGE.
It's their PLAYBOOK. Mitch helped build it.
RAGE is what they love.
#GQP has had control of the Senate more than Democrats. -gerrymandering and voter suppression works for them.

I hear you. But the truth? The American people want change. Really want it.
We have 60 Senators who aren’t listening to their constituents. They are willing to live with that.
That’s the sad state of politics here and elsewhere in the world.
#ChangeIsNeeded
Mercy on us all now.
Those 60 compromise only a part of the Senate. They are playing for their political future, not for the people. They’ve chosen to disregard all that people are telling them, because “they” are right and we aren’t.
We voted them in, we can vote them out, but in 2022 ..

Well, evidently Michael has been playing games since the last test of the system in 2020/September
See article below.

Sherwin refutes Bowser claim office isn’t doing enough to prosecute protestors
Was Michael an Acting Supervisor when he gave the interview? Was he formally a Special Counsel? Was it just bad timing?

This is one of the worst Long Term plans I’ve seen so far from USPS.
They have a product everyone uses, services everyone wants, strength in partnerships/contracts with pharmacies, trucking etc.

When you have a strong product you improve it, not take away from it.
1/
1. You don’t slow down the most important service it has, you improve the efficiency of how it’s delivered. You better the product.
2. You don’t take away the very thing (hours/employees) that make the product good, you provide more efficiencies and organization
2/
3. You don’t take away shorter (and yes, more pollution) trips to deliver those goods on time, you determine better ways to get that done.
4. You don’t increase trucks (unless you used to own a company that has lots of them) you organize and prioritize shipments better.

First, there’s a website I like to look at every month. It updates it’s cryptic comments and they are always lovely. Today, I looked at this:
This reveal reminded me of something we did and how connected everything is.

KEY SENTENCE

“They have no fear about threatening the lives of people because they have a huge network of people from within their mafia benefactors to kill anyone in their way. It is the largest monopoly in the world by far and it isn't even close.”

HOLD THAT THOUGHT

Yep, I have some old stuff, I’ll just post that here.
I have folders to review again. Thanks for the reminder.
Adding to this THREAD as I find the counties and Blackwater.
#1
Camden County, 2008. AK47’s - BLACKWATER financed the buy - KEYWORD
Maj Jon Worthington worked as a firearms instructor with Blackwater then moved to Sheriff’s Department .
“Sheriff: they have never used AK-47’s outside of shooting ranges and no deputies qualified to use”.
2/ ImageImage
Of course, they signed an agreement with an old friend - a “good corporate citizen”.
The beginning of the end for so many lives..... Image
