Political violence is a feature, not a bug of progressivism. Because progressivism is built on top of a Critical Theory lens that sees the world through "Oppressed vs Oppressor" categories rather than a Christian Theology lens of "Right vs Wrong", it trains people to see opponents not as mistaken, but as evil oppressors. If you believe someone is mistaken, you try to persuade them (what @charliekirk11 did). If you believe someone is an evil oppressor ("literally Hitler!", "fascist", "existential threat to democracy", virtually everything and everyone is "racist"), you will feel a moral obligation to stop them. This is why there is radically disproportionate violence emerging on the Left.

We’re all wondering why this war was started in the first place.. and concluding that war hawks like you persuaded President Trump it would be a good idea. It wasn’t.

When Jesus used the simple illustration that He would make his Disciples to become Fishers of Men there is a profound and obvious point that so many miss! Fish cannot by nature come to men, men can and must go to the Fish.

Galatians 4:4 looks like a transition verse. “But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth His Son.” If you read it fast, it sounds like a timestamp. But if read slowly, it is the most staggering sentence in the Bible. ‘Fullness of time’. Paul isn't saying God picked a convenient moment. He is saying God declared a moment complete. “The preparation is finished and everything I have been building across centuries is exactly where I need it to be”. God looked at human history and said: now. Which forces the question. Why then? Why not a thousand years earlier, when Moses was fresh? Why not a thousand years later? What was so perfect about the first century? I started looking into it and I have not recovered. God needed a people with the theology. He spent 2000 years forming Israel; the covenant, the sacrificial system, the prophets, Isaiah 53 written seven centuries before Calvary, the framework of a coming Messiah who would bear the sin of the world. The Jews were shaped by wilderness, exile, and divine discipline, until the theological infrastructure for substitutionary atonement was fully in place. But theology alone could not travel. God needed a language. Not a tribal dialect, but a universal tongue. So five hundred years before the Gospel, He let the Greek philosophers begin. Heraclitus sat in Ephesus and concluded the universe was governed by an invisible rational principle. He called it the Logos. The Stoics built on it. Philo of Alexandria stood at the intersection of Greek thought and Hebrew scripture and said the Logos was the mind of God in creation. For five hundred years, philosophy built a conceptual category it could not fill. Then God sent a conqueror with no interest in theology. Alexander the Great wanted glory and empire. God let him want it. In satisfying his ego across three continents, Alexander Hellenized the ancient world and forged Koine Greek, the common tongue of the docks, markets, soldiers, and slaves. A language stripped of complexity, simple enough for anyone, universal enough for everyone. The Hebrew scriptures were translated into it. The Septuagint was born. God used a pagan conqueror’s ambition to translate His own Word. Then Rome came and paved the road. The Pax Romana. Piracy cleared. Stone highways stretching from Spain to Syria. A framework for movement the ancient world had never seen. None of them knew they were collaborating. Heraclitus thought he was doing philosophy. Alexander thought he was building a monument to himself. Rome thought it was building an empire for Rome. Not one of them understood they were stagehands. God was with Heraclitus in his pondering, with Alexander in his conquest, with Roman engineers laying stone, quietly requisitioning their work for a purpose none of them could see. And then, when the covenant people were in place, the language primed, the roads built, and the category ready, when everything He had been quietly assembling was finally set, God stepped into the room they had unknowingly prepared. John picked up his pen and wrote: “In the beginning was the Logos.” Every Greek philosopher in the Mediterranean felt the ground shift. “And the Logos became flesh.” The category they spent five centuries constructing was not a principle. It was a Person. The ‘fullness of time is not a timestamp’. It is God’s signature on a completed work. And the humbling thing is that this work was not built by saints. It was built by conquerors, philosophers, and emperors who thought they were writing their own story. God let them think that. And used every word. If this is not amazing then I don’t know what is.

This is so unjust

CBS News said there was no evidence of fraud. The NYT said the Somali community was being targeted CNN said there was "little evidence." Tim Walz said it was “white supremacy” to expose fraud Today: $90M busted and 15 charged. IT WAS ALL FRAUD AND THEY KNEW.

🚨MASSIVE: President Trump has officially ENDORSED Ken Paxton for the Texas Senate race. This endorsement is yet ANOTHER massive blow to the entrenched establishment, which spent years trying to take Paxton down through investigations, impeachments, and endless media attacks. No more weak, establishment Republicans. America First conservatives want fighters — and Trump clearly sees Paxton as a fighter.

Today, President Donald Trump has made his position unmistakably clear in the Texas Senate race, he is fully backing Attorney General Ken Paxton, and SO AM I. I could not be more proud of the campaign we ran and the nearly 300,000 Texans who stood with our movement, our message, and our mission for the future of this great state. To EVERY supporter who believed in what we fought for, I am now asking you to unite behind the next United States Senator from Texas, @KenPaxtonTX. He has the total and complete endorsement of President Donald Trump, and he has mine as well. NOW is the time to come together, fight TOGETHER, and deliver a strong America First victory for Texas and for our nation.

Breaking News: President Trump endorsed Ken Paxton for Senate in Texas just a week before his primary runoff against Senator John Cornyn. nyti.ms/3PwtbgQ

Full breakdown of the new January 6th report - The FBI deployed 26 paid confidential informants in Washington DC on January - 4 entered the Capitol building during the events - 13 entered the restricted areas around the Capitol - This means over a dozen FBI-linked informants were actively in the “riot” or restricted zones - CHS provided intelligence that Jan 6 “was gonna get a little hairy.” FBI HQ allegedly did nothing to prevent escalation and later claimed otherwise to Congress - ZERO charges against any of their FBI informants FBI covered up details before the election, confirmed Director Christopher Wray announced his resignation timing tied to report release - Media and Democrats pushed the “inside job by Trump” while dismissing FBI and Antifa involvement, despite early knowledge of CHS numbers (THEY KNEW) - Jan 6 politically benefited Democrats with impeachments, indictments, criminalizing MAGA, Jan 6 Committee focus - No accountability for uncharged informants despite “greatest attack on democracy since 9/11” rhetoric - There were allegedly payment made. Congress needs more details on CHS (Confidential Human Source)’s conduct, payments for hotels and more and pre-event activities - Says the FBI, media, and prior investigations are all not credible This only means one thing. Democrats used the FBI to stage an insurrection against Donald Trump. They tried to cover their tracks by hiring outside people to be agitators, then have those people they hired immunity against prosecution for doing the same activities they prosecuted Americans for All to steal the election and rush certification of their stolen election Inside job. Treason.

🚨BREAKING:🚨SASHA OBAMA, DAUGHTER OF FORMER PRESIDENT, SEEN WEARING MAGA HAT - The daughter of DISGRACED former President Barack Obama was reportedly seen in a Washington DC restaurant this morning wearing a red "Make America Great Again" baseball cap. When asked by a passer-by about the pro-Trump attire, Sasha Obama allegedly replied with a strong DENOUNCEMENT of her father's presidency and stated that she is "a registered Republican who proudly voted for and stands with President Trump". "My father nearly destroyed this country and President Trump is still trying to clean up his mess", the next generation Obama told the curious gentleman who questioned her about her hat. When asked if she believed she was betraying her dad, she is said to have replied, "As I've gotten older, I've realized that I am my own woman and can make up my own mind. Trump was right about everything". She then walked out of the restaurant donning her MAGA cap with a big smile on her face. Do YOU agree with Sasha Obama that her father was A DISASTROUS PRESIDENT and that President Trump is SAVING AMERICA from his UNPRECEDENTED DESTRUCTION of our country?

Activist: "Your cows are putting carbon into the atmosphere." Farmer: "Where did they get it?" Activist: "What?" Farmer: "The carbon. Where did the cow get it before it put it anywhere." Activist: "From... eating?" Farmer: "From eating grass. And where did the grass get it." Activist: "The soil?" Farmer: "The air. The grass pulled it out of the air last spring. The cow ate the grass. The cow breathed some of it back out. It went back into the air it came from." Activist: "But it's still going into the atmosphere." Farmer: "It's going back. There's a difference between a thing going somewhere and a thing going back. You've described a circle and you're frightened of it." Activist: "Then just don't have the cow." Farmer: "The grass still dies in autumn. It rots where it falls. The carbon goes back into the air either way, just without anyone getting fed in the middle." Activist: "It's not that simple." Farmer: "It's grass, cow, breath, grass. Or it's grass, rot, air, grass. Same circle, fewer dinners. If that's complicated for you I'd stay away from the water cycle. That one's got clouds in it."

Anyone with a brain has known this for years now! Glad it was confirmed by this testimony!
