Many like to believe they’re different from people in history, but many are not. The same cruelty once condemned in now-banned textbooks is unfolding before our eyes. The faces and settings have changed, but the injustice remains. Even worse, some try to justify it.

The elimination of USAID was an unforgivable moral atrocity that should haunt Trump, Elon Musk and Marco Rubio for the rest of their days and beyond

RAJU: Given how dire things are for so many Americans right now, how do you justify the administration giving this big massive bailout to Argentina?

I’m going to keep repeating that one reason why they are escalating violence is because they know they are wildly outnumbered.

It is a sign of weakness, not strength, that they are tear gassing and pepper ball shooting and slamming protestors to the ground and dragging them into facilities.

JD Vance on Donald Trump: “I’m a Never Trump guy. I never liked him. I don’t think he’s the person. I don’t think he cares about folks. I think that he’s noxious and is leading the white working class to a very dark place.”

Christians for Trump, what say you?

Is that how Jesus wants you to behave?
