One of the last truly #conservative #GOP Presidents, #Reagan was right about #tariffs.

He can’t get beyond himself to see what he’s done. It’s not about the East Wing. It’s about him.

Historical, or traditional, #conservatism in the US has emphasized:
•Limited gov, fiscal restraint
•Strong institutions (law, Constitution, checks/balances)
•Moral order/civility rooted in faith or natural law
•Free trade, int’l alliances
•Prudence/stability vs populist upheaval

#Jesus supported the #marginalized.
If your #Christian friends mock the marginalized, they’re not Christian.
If your #church doesn’t serve the marginalized, it’s not a church.

The Beacon of Democracy Goes Dark For nearly 250 years, America promoted freedom and equality abroad, even when it failed to live up to those ideals itself. Not anymore.

"We always think about America’s postwar role in Europe as an act of great generosity, the defense of allies from Soviet aggression. But by putting democracy at the center of our international identity, we also helped strengthen our own political system"

I wonder what #MikeJohnson would call his 72% Health Plan premium subsidy, paid for by American taxpayers and workers?

The #ThirdWay is #Jesus’ alternative to both violence and passive submission, a path of active, loving, nonviolent resistance. It confronts #injustice with #dignity and creativity, reflecting Jesus’ life where #love triumphs over #power.

A #THIRDWAY?

#Jesus didn’t just add new religious teachings. He revealed a completely different way, a divine alternative to the cycles of domination and fear. His #kingdom offered a new vision of peace, justice, and reconciliation that still challenges every worldly #power today.

A Christianity that promotes the interests of empire* is a Christianity that rides the back of the beast as the whore of Babylon.

Set two achievable goals. 1) to finish, and 2) to not be the last one. Achieve those and build on your success! Best of luck.

Take the “Christian” out of “Christian” Nationalism…

At best, it is theological malpractice. At worst, it is heresy.

#HEALTHCARE

Did you know members of #Congress receive a government #premiumcredit (subsidy) of approx 72% of their health plan premiums.

Yet, they want to eliminate any subsidies for hard working American citizens.

The #President just addressed #military leaders by praising himself and criticizing fellow Americans, including former Commanders-in-Chief. #History shows this is what a #Dictatorship does.

The day after Barack Obama’s hist…" Back in November 2008, America showed the world what peaceful transfer of power truly looks like. The day after Barack Obama’s historic win, President George W. Bush, a Republican, stood in the White House Rose Garden and congratulated his Democratic successor with grace, dignity and genuine respect. He called Obama’s victory “impressive,” recognized it as a proud moment for the nation and pledged to ensure a smooth transition. It wasn’t about party lines. It was about the country.As an American, watching that moment still fills me with pride. It was a reminder that the presidency is bigger than one man, one party or one election. We can disagree fiercely on policy, we can battle hard during a campaign, but when the people speak, we unite behind the choice they’ve made. That’s the America I love, where leaders put the nation before themselves and where honor and respect guide even the most difficult transitions.We could use more of that today, the kind of statesmanship that shows the world we’re not just the land of the free, but also the home of the gracious. 🇺🇸[Bush, Obama, 2008 election, US politics, American history, democracy, Republican Democrat, presidential speech]View all 17,089 comments

This is how a peaceful transition of power is supposed to work.

#Christian #identity (or theological identity) should not be reduced to, or fully aligned with, the categories of worldly #politics.
