Where we can track voter reg #s, they are shifting massively toward Rs---AZ, NE2, ME, FL, NC, PA, NV. In states where Ds led by 600k in 2016 (PA) they now lead by 150. In AZ where they trailed by 130k in 20, they now lead by 260k.

So if you think Trump isn't "Doing enough," well

The new Republican platform is a troubling shift in our party. It removed years of pro-life language, made no mention of the national debt, advocated for massive taxes, and abandoned commitments to allies around the world.

NBC lets Walz do a Friday night news dump by indirect statement to admit to stolen valor.

No follow-up questions or demands for answers.

Just press releases.https://t.co/MP2jqyiwHX

Yep, Walz 'misspoke' ... dozens of times in speech and in print.

Not even herd animals are this flagrant about it. You tell me how and why corporate media constantly speaks from the same exact script this way, verbatim. #KamalaIsJOY pic.twitter.com/AHSE9Im1GL

As mentioned to 47 earlier this week, another example of the media carrying water by using the same verbaige to promote the same message across multiple news sites at the same time

Not what Rogan said:

"For the record, this isn't an endorsement. This is me saying that I like RFKjr as a person, and I really appreciate the way he discusses things with civility and intelligence.

"I think we could use more of that in this world.

"I also think Trump raising his fist and saying "fight!" after getting shot is one of the most American ****ing things of all time.

"I'm not the guy to get political information from. If you want that from a comic, go to
@ComicDaveSmith . He actually knows what he's talking about."

For the record, this isn’t an endorsement. This is me saying that I like RFKjr as a person, and I really appreciate the way he discusses things with civility and intelligence.

It doesn't go both ways though. Trump has very real paths without Pennsylvania. Like picking off Wisconsin (which was the closest in 2020), and winning Arizona and Georgia.

But PA would be nice as it basically seals the deal. And if he wins PA, he's probably won Wisconsin too.

The best Crazy Town scenario for Electoral College:

Harris take Rust Belt
Trump takes Sun Belt plus Nebraska CD2
269 Electoral votes each.

Vote shifts from Electoral College to US HOR which picks the next President.
Each state delegation sharing one vote. Wyoming's vote counts as much as California's vote.
26 votes needed to win.

Fact check me but the above method is my recollection.

Nothing wrong with a pastor speaking up on the issues of the day. In fact, if you don't know where they stand on the positions of the day then they're failing as pastors. Saying that things like tampons for kids or abortion are against the word of god is biblically accurate. It's absolutely disgusting the policies those two yahoos support.

Now can you do it without mentioning their names specifically. Sure and I wish Graham had done that. My pastor is undoubtedly disgusted by the things Harris and Walz support but he can condemn those things without mentioning them. That's the way I prefer it. But at the end of the day, if your pastor isn't standing up for the word of god on the moral issues of the day, he shouldn't be in this line of work.

The fascist propaganda machine (aka MSM) has been doing that for at least 30 years, probably longer. I remember in the 1990s they would all use pretty much the exact same phrase to describe specific events with the spin desired by the Party. It was entertaining to see so many "esteemed journalists" act like brainless robots. Rush Limbaugh used to play montages of the media doing this regularly. He made it entertaining by joking about their obvious propaganda technique.

fyi: previous elections their "results" were equally atrocious.

When you have people who hate God and want to destroy His people and His Word.... then it IS the Lord's work to get involved in politics.

It used to make sense for a preacher to not get involved, when everyone who was running for office was a Christian who just had disagreements on the best ways to do the Lord's work in office.

Now you have demonic people who want to kill babies, castrate and mutilate children, promote trans insanity, destroy Christianity, promote Islam.... so no.. it is truly EVIL for a Christian to STFU in these days.

The devil would love nothing more than for good Christian people to shut up and do nothing.

Is socialism/communism contrary to the word of God?

Is socialism/communism contrary to the word of God?

---

As actually practiced? Definitely.

Soviets killing 30+ million people = evil.
Khmer Rouge genocide = evil.
Venezuela under Chavez and Maduro stealing assets, blackmailing everyone, and currently kidnapping political opponents = evil.
Cuba imprisoning their entire nation = evil.
China being the world leader in corporate espionage = evil.

And before you start the European Socialism with sprinkles argument…..

Denmark creating a perpetual property owning elite caste = evil.
Sweden driving 1/4 then existing businesses into oblivion by massive taxes = evil.

So yes, socialism and communism as actually practiced are contrary to the word of God.

---

As found in the word of God, is socialism or communism contrary to God's word? Theoretically, they are not contrary. As you correctly point out, some examples are evil.

I don't find capitalism in scripture. As some actually practice it, capitalism can be contrary to scripture. Theoretically it isn't contrary, but as some practice it, it is.

Oso: "I don't find capitalism in scripture"

Really? How about the long accounts regarding the success of Abraham, Job and others in the Old Testament, or Jesus' parable of the three servants who were rewarded according to their ability to create profit for their master?

Of course I will note your usual lack of self-awareness and hypocrisy who has never criticized a blek "preacher" for being political ... isn't one of the senators from Georgia ostensibly a "reverend?" I am sure you criticized him for being involved in politics. As usual, LWNJ's lack principles.

Bull****

Preachers have the same rights as anyone else.

---

That's a complex question. When First Baptist in Houston spends more time praising creeps like Patrick than Jesus you have to wonder about the mission.

I guess to be fair it is a double edged sword. Every minister has every right to preach but perhaps it is the style of spoken word. For example on abortion. The church has every right to tell the flock this is evil according to belief. But where they cross the line is pushing political candidates like Patrick to send a message that conflicts with church/state by stating Harris is evil.

Patrick should deliver the message from the legislature, not the church

Jubilee isn't very capitalistic. Check it out: From a legal point of view, the Jubilee law effectively banned sale of land as fee simple, and instead land could only be leased for no more than 50 years. The biblical regulations go on to specify that the price of land had to be proportional to how many years remained before the Jubilee, with land being cheaper the closer it is to the Jubilee.
