The Minnesota Somali fraud exposes everything that is wrong with government. Politicians and their administrators spend other people’s (taxpayers’) money to advance their own interests —getting themselves and their party elected and reelected by supporting an ethnic group which votes as a block — under the guise of supporting a purported good, in this case child daycare, autism care and ‘healthcare’ broadly defined.
When this fraud is combined with a system which allows one voter to ‘verify’ up to eight other voters who do not have to show state or federal ID, at best you destroy the American people’s confidence in our democratic voting system, and, at worst, you have rigged elections.
The only way this stops is for the people responsible to suffer severe criminal consequences and for there to be a Federal internal audit system where private citizen bounty hunters who find fraud earn rewards equal to a percentage of the grift identified.
The time to fix our broken system is now.

“If the Orthodox Church is the True Church… why are there so many divisions?”
It’s an honest question—and one I’ve heard many times from seekers trying to understand the fullness of the faith.
From the outside, Orthodoxy can seem fragmented: Greek, Russian, Antiochian, Serbian… disputes between bishops… patriarchates not in communion...
The Patriarch's of Constantinople and Moscow are not in communion. There's debates about the Church of Ukraine. What does this mean for the future of Orthodoxy in America, which is dominated by multiple ethnic jurisdictions?
Here’s the truth:
Orthodoxy is united where it matters—faith, worship, and sacrament.
Not in earthly administration.
From the beginning, the Church grew across cultures and languages. Antioch, Alexandria, Constantinople, Jerusalem—each Church fully Orthodox, each self-governing (autocephalous), each preserving the one apostolic faith.
Yes, bishops have disagreed. Yes, administrative boundaries get messy. That’s human weakness, not doctrinal division.
But the Creed is unchanged. The Eucharist is one. The Liturgy is shared. The saints are venerated across every jurisdiction.
This is not disunity—it is diversity within unity.
So how does someone find “the True Church”?
By asking:
Is the apostolic faith preserved?
Is the Eucharist rightly celebrated?
Is the spiritual life alive?
Orthodoxy answers yes.
Don’t look for perfect bishops or flawless structures.
Look for Christ.
Look for the Spirit.
Look for the Church that leads you to holiness.
And there… you’ll find home.
A Pastoral Word---
If you’re seeking Orthodoxy, don’t be discouraged by ecclesiastical noise. God does not hide His Church behind bureaucracy.
Instead, visit the parish where your soul finds peace.
Where the teaching is faithful.
Where the worship draws you to Christ.
Where the priest can walk with you.
Where repentance and love are lived.
That is where the Holy Spirit breathes.
And that… is where the Church lives.
~Father-Don Purdum
