Undocumented too!

YouTube video by Sen. Elissa Slotkin MSNBC: Slotkin talks Hegseth Hearing

I was very pleased with Michigan Senator Elissa Slotkin yesterday. She stood up to and hammered Pete Eggseth. In this interview from MSNBC covers that incident and you get to see more of her grit.

Bullies are often surprised when people fight back. But usually they learn their lesson once a little guy smacks them upside the head. But some are just so bullheaded, they never learn. And they can even become President.

It doesn't matter whether they were war plans or attack plans. That doesn't matter nearly as much as the method they choose to communicate and the complete lack of security. And the complete who gives a rip flippant attitude.

Thank you for it, your accessibility on other platforms, and all your hard work.

Fired and put in jail. They're no way that with Hegseth's background, and the fact this was a defense conversation, that he did not know that a journalist was in this list. Seems to me it is either directly his fault or one of his staffers.

Zebedee, John and James' father, deciding to leave being a fisherman and wanting to buy an olive grove to become a merchant, just like a good ol' modern entrepreneur. And then Jesus basically argues his way out of a cliff-dive. The Bible is unclear of how Jesus escapes this. 9/9

It was like an informal Bible study, where even the women are allowed to speak. Sorry if that sounds misogynistic, but that's how things were then. In first-century Palestine, this would not have been "informal." It would have been sacrilegious and blasphemous! 8/9

In Nazareth inventing the first AWANA game (hot potato-Jesus is really bad at hot potato). Then they go into the synagogue for Jesus to read the scrolls that are about to get him in hot water. The way this "service" is conducted is so far from the way it would have been. 7/9

One of the most juvenile perspectives on the pre-trib end-times ever presented on paper. But that's what you'd expect from a writer of teen-aged Christian novels (starring a boy named Dallas, no less). And in this episode, we have Jesus, Lazarus, and friends. 6/9

Episode 3. And right at the beginning, I noticed why the anachronisms stuck out so badly. I don't know if all of "The Chosen" was directed by him, but this episode was written and directed by Dallas Jenkins, son of Jerry Jenkins, of the Left Behind series fame. 5/9

It's way too early for that. I would not expect it to look Protestant either--it's even farther off for that. I expect it to look Jewish, in the first-century Palestine. This got so bad after two seasons, I swore I would not watch it again. But I did anyway. I'm on Season 3. 4/9

Is transcribing everything Jesus is saying. None of the gospels were written until 40-50 years later, likely none of them written by the persons who they are named after, regardless of what tradition says. I am Catholic. I would not expect this period to look Catholic. 3/9

I found that annoying, but it was not that that bothered me the most. What bothered me the most about it was the anachronistically forcing our modern, American views on relationships and a flippant attitude toward God. What first bugged me is making it look like Matthew. 2/9

Sometimes I get a bit critical when it comes to Bible movies. So many of them have been SO bad. But here goes again! When I first started watching "The Chosen" a couple of years ago, I thought it was OK. Not great, but OK. It had a decidedly evangelical Protestant bent to it. 1/9

I had a bowl of Lucky Charms

I think Reagan did. Since then...no.

I don't think Linus would get teased so much if he did this.

Where is Musk's suit?

I wonder if Brian Glenn has ever asked Elon Musk, on camera, in public, "why aren't you wearing a suit?"

And the oft told axiom that anti-abortioners often say is that people use abortion as birth control is a myth. Blaming all abortion on the behavior of a few is the same thing that conservatives tend to do with illegal aliens in blaming them all for the illegal actions of a few.

5/6
Republican policies lead removing social aid to low income people who are the main people who also get abortions. Democratic policies give social aid to low-income people making it easier for them to decide to have their child rather than abort.

5/6
The abortion rate was higher during Trump's last presidency than it was during Obama's.

4/6
So we're really not talking about the elimination of abortion anyway. No matter how you look at it you're only looking at limiting it. So what is the best way of limiting abortions?

3/6
Yes, abortion is now illegal in many places in the US. But has it ended? Will it? I don't care how illegal you may make it. It will never go away.

2/6
Yes, he's responsible for overturning RvW. But pro or anti abortion is not the beginning and ending of Christian life.

1/6
Some Christians I know only support Trump because of his anti-abortion stance. Somehow this makes is easy to swallow all of the other anti-Christian policies, positions, attitudes, and behavior of this man.

After yesterday's brutal attack on one of our own allies, I hope King Charles recinds his invitation for Trump to visit the UK. He and Vance should be persona non grata anywhere outside the US.

This is one of the more important videos I've seen in a long time. You should take out 45 minutes or so to watch this. And don't let the intro with him talking about a radio deter you from watching the rest. He chose that for a reason. ***This is not a radio repair video.***
