The Implosion of Irrelevance in the white conservative (and many moderate) church is afoot.
Are any of y'all conservatives gonna talk about the swath of destruction this conservative administration is wreaking upon the US and the world?
* He's plunging the world into economic chaos.
* Mind you, he inherited a solid economy with the promise of making things better, but he appears to be clueless as to what his actions will do. Or how to do so.
* Mind you, that was clear during the election process. He made clear just how corrupt, inept, irrational and dangerous he would be. Half the voters voted for him anyway.
* Mind you, the US average wage for all wage earners is in the top five of all nations in the world. But that's not enough for him??
* Mind you, this was never about making things better for working class and poor people.
* He's ignoring judges. That, or he's attacking and threatening them.
* He's establishing an authoritarian stronghold, firing people he deems not loyal enough to him and putting in their place spineless sycophants.
* He's willy nilly deporting people, slandering them with no support accusing people of being terrorists and yet giving them no due process. He's clearly already deported several (at least) clearly innocent people "by whoopsie accident," he says... AND he's not going to try to fix his mistakes.
* He's slashing the services that US citizens, children, students, veterans, disabled people depend upon.
* He's doing this slash and burn process in theory to make the gov't "more efficient" and save money, but he's clearly doing it in a thoughtless, unmeasured, "destroy them all and see where it lands" approach. No one is opposed to reasonable efforts to create efficiencies and save money, but THIS is not THAT.
* He's placing clearly incompetent people in charge of departments they're just not qualified for.
* He's releasing villains convicted by a jury of their peers who had assaulted and caused harm to dozens of police officers in an effort to undermine our elections.
On and on, the dim-witted, malevolent chaos continues.
To reasoned observers of the election, this is no surprise... again, he TOLD us clearly what an agent of corruption and chaos he would be. This chaos was expected by most of us. What's so strange and what I'm talking about HERE is, WHERE are the conservatives even acknowledging that we're in a crazy, dangerous moment? Outside of the few Liz Cheneys and other purged martyrs to the Felon's chaos, there's an eerie silence in conservative world.
Frankly, NO conservatives are speaking out against it... Not even a tepid, "well, now, dearhearts, maybe he should slow down just a bit and be a bit more rational and decent in his responses..." Just crickets.
Now I know how decent, rational, moral Germans felt in the 1930s!

No, they’re not going to address it.
Jesse and the fake Scot have gone Catholic hunting; Craig has amped up his activity in order to scare up as many “enemies” among the already oppressed he can think of… in order not to think; and Marshal can’t find anything to write about.
They’re all paralyzed and prefer that to becoming conscious - woke - to the damage and destruction they are accountable for. To them, White Supremacist brutalizers all, everything smells pretty. Like napalm in the morning.
A long list of what, if said of one of your kind by one of ours, are nothing but wildly false, unsupported claims. Where did Trump say he was going to be an agent of corruption? This is an intentional lie.
But you won't prove any of your claims. You assert them and to liars like you, that's as good as proof. A true false Christian, you can do no other.
Trump proves Dan right every day.
C SPAN
BREAKING: After deliberately
DEMOLISHING the economy, causing the average retirement 401k account to CRASH BY $8,000, and wiping out TWO TRILLION DOLLARS in value from the U.S. stock market...
Trump boards Air Force One TO ATTEND A GOLF TOURNAMENT funded by his Saudi pals, at his own private club he STILL profits from.
HE COULDN'T CARE LESS ABOUT US!
Marshal habitually wills himself to be stupid. It’s a sin against the Holy Spirit.

Felon Freed by Trump Is Sent Back to Prison After Child Assault Charge
Jonathan Braun, a drug smuggler, on Friday made an obscene gesture toward people in the courtroom and complained about his legal representation.
You're right. The defenders of this felon and his racist, sexist, homophobic, sexually predatory team will NOT acknowledge or point out these kinds of things.
But, why? What has happened to them that has crushed their humanity and basic decency and reason? Racism and white privilege are certainly part of the explanation, but I'm not sure that's all of it.
Marshal:
Where did Trump say he was going to be an agent of corruption?
I was speaking with poetic license.
* WHEN you have a man with multiple bankruptcies;
* who has regularly used/abused the court system to avoid paying people the full amount owed;
* Who abused a charity to profit himself;
* Who has created a scam school to cheat students out of money;
* Who got his wealth from his daddy, who got his wealth from racist, redlining practices and the worst parts of capitalistic greed;
* Who grew up spiritually poor, being inbred with abusive, oppressive, "prosperity gospel" types of teachings from NV Peale AND,
* Who then went on to pervert the already perverted teachings of NVP;
* Who IS A CONVICTED FELON and an unrepentant, bullying and abusive felon at that;
* Who has threatened - and is now causing harm to - the public servants who found him guilty;
* Who has publicly announced that he is a sexual predatory AND WHO LAUGHS and boasts about sexually preying upon women AND GIRLS;
etc, etc, etc...
And when this clearly corrupt man
* Has promised to reduce the price of eggs on "Day One";
* Has promised to reduce inflation in general and on Day One;
* When all rational people KNOW that he can't fix shit in one day, especially things that are beyond his control;
* Thereby indicating that he KNEW these were empty and impossible promises;
and on and on and on... in literally hundreds of ways, Trump has told you that he is just what he appears to be - a broken, morally bankrupt, corrupt, deviant who doesn't give a damn about poor or working class people and who has NO plan to make things better (because, again, he doesn't give a damn about poor and working class people - they're literally besides the point for him)...
AND whose announced "plans" were these ridiculous tariffs which were clearly going to cause financial upheaval and harm, especially in the careless and unplanned, flippant manner he was doing them;
AND whose announced plans were to gut programs that actually DO help and protect the poor and working class...
THAT man has already told you who he is - an agent of chaos and corruption who is only in it for his own hedonistic pleasure and benefit. Billionaires can completely bankrupt a nation and damage a world's economy and it's no skin off their nose... they can just get on one of their many yachts, benefit from the chaos they've left in their wake and sail away to somewhere else to enjoy their corruption.
Don't be stupid, Marshal. These types of people are using and abusing you. You will NOT be better off after a kleptomaniacal and corrupt administration, EVEN IF they oppress and harm the people you want to see them oppress and harm.
Move on. With no data, you have nothing to contribute here unless and until you realize the error of your ways and repent and apologize and turn around.

This is a serious question that I have for Feodor. I can't ask him this on his own blog, since he has comments disabled, so here it is: Why do you post comments on other people's sites when they ask you to stop? Why would you want to be around people who clearly don't like you? I know I would not want to be.
“John Smith” - I haven’t had comments disabled for almost a week. Show up but show up with something real not fantasy.
If sending news clips of realities that they deny, news clips of brutalities committed that they thrill to, news clips that reveal the lies they love…. if these things disturb and bother and can’t be responded to, if they can’t defend themselves to the accusations they are put under by simple headlines, the they do not deserve a voice that’s unopposed.
Silence is colluding with evil.
The Civil Rights taught us this.
You didn’t get that message?
When people are kind and sane, they already know. Are you an idiot? You’re the one who needs to be confronted with the good, the beautiful, and the true.
“If you were at all serious about spreading your message of "truth," then you would go to other places where people are more receptive to your ideas.”
You’ve never heard of preaching to the choir? What irrational idiocy.
Anonymous, "John Smith," I let one off topic comment stand. Now Feodor has answered your question. Comment on topic or move on.
Feodor, of course, you have the right of it. We have to find ways to communicate with "the other side," at least when they're willing to hear it. Unfortunately, too many don't appear to want to even hear the other side.
Brainwashing is harmful to those beyond the brainwashed.
