We are 5 years to the day from the last pre-Covid event I went to, a baby shower. People from NYC were there too and I spent the next two weeks worried they somehow infected my clothes or something that was going to get me later because we had no idea how it spread.

I saw something like this in the documentary Mark Wahlburg film The Happening.

(Bernie Sanders caucuses with Democrats)

The reason sanctuary cities exist is because law enforcement in those cities needs community buy-in to help solve other more important crimes. A witness to a murder or a victim of domestic violence might not come forward if they are undocumented and might get deported for talking to the police.

No way to really track it because by definition they're going unreported but I can only imagine what kind of horror show is going unreported due to these raids.

He doesn't call himself God until the gospel of John which was written later than the others. Pretty sure the historical Jesus wouldn't be claiming to be God at all. That's just something that happens with religions over time.

He would also be saying it in Aramaic as an illiterate builder (stone worker being more likely than carpenter but the Greek word translates generically).

And there were a lot of early groups (Marcion and all the groups we call Gnostic) who took Jesus' teachings to mean God from the Old Testament was an evil demiurge God and Jesus' teachings were to overcome the material world.

With how Christian teachings have coalesced into the Trinity etc it would be really interesting to hear what the historical man himself was actually saying.

The Democrats in question would likely say they're upset progressives are getting mad at Democrats as if they have the power to pass bills or do much of anything. Yelling "do something" isn't helping when your party doesn't have any power.

Ironically the most power Democrats have is thanks to the filibuster, which Progressives campaigned against for years.

Cooper DeJean was robbed.

Tariffs too. It's just a bit of "short term pain"...meaning, for about 4 years until someone comes in and reverses the horrible policies.

Yes he would.

I spent his first 4 years hyper tuned in and stressing, and I called 0 Senators, wrote 0 letters, made 0 impact. THAT is the wrong call.

Either stop paying attention or take the time to actually contribute to the political process. Call your local political party and ask what you can do.
