Flying cars take off in China as state backs low-altitude air travel

If one can read the Dictionary Definition of Fascism without seeing Trump's picture next to it.... one is definitely in his Cult.

1Nutjob and Fishpaw.... it's like a drooling contest, rofl!

The Trump Gov takes over the Media on many fronts, and they just sit there with the same stupid looks on their faces.

Remember when Republicans were small Gov and patriotic?

Now they love whatever Trump's Gestapo does... and love them a guy in the WH who tried to Rig the Election with his DOJ.

Which only failed because they threatened to resign en masse.

Traitor Trump and his Band of Buttkissers.

#6.... responded, "YES!".

So funny.... Trumpaganda from some schlock rwinger House Rep's website is a thread link now?

Obligatory

Meanwhile, Rev Jackson is still dead.

I checked.

Even being in the same room at the Caucus with him was a thrill for me; he and Ali were two of my heroes. My first college literature assignment was to write about modern Heroes... of which there felt like few, and mine was on Ali.

Also was in the same small venue bar in downtown Austin with SRV that year!

"A woman, who testified at Maxwell's 2021 criminal trial, said in a lawsuit that she was 13 years old when she met Epstein and Maxwell at the school's annual summer Interlochen Arts Camp in 1994. She says they began a relationship that started with grooming and led to sexual abuse. NPR does not name victims of sexual abuse.

A few summers later, Epstein and Maxwell met a 14-year-old student who said her first contact with them at the school was the start of a manipulative and controlling relationship that lasted years."

Thank God!

IF these clowns can't divert a thread to Abortion, Trans, or Immigrants.... they'll just go away.

They are only interested in spouting the divisive politics that their criminal traitor racist rapist in the WH tells them to spout.

- why this country is so divided.

Is because Republicans have divided it over things like trans, immigrants, and abortion.

When on most important issues, most Americans actually agree.

The But But Bubba! Defence.

The person doing his damnedest to hide whats in the Files right now is Pres Doofus.

And he ordered Republicans not to show up at Wexner's Deposition.

And his AG and FBI won't even return the Victims phone calls.

Sychopant and Laura,

this is a highly intellectual, but very interesting and fast moving conversation on the clash of Christianity with the totally different Greco-Roman World by two top authors/scholars

the worldviews of the warlike slaveholders and the passionate peaceniks clashing

NT Wright & Tom Holland How St Paul changed the world (Full Show)

BJ hits the Abortion! button... can the Trans! button and the Immigrants Eating Cats! buttons be far behind?

These are Fringe Issues that rwing politicians and their patsies use to divide us; Trans are less than 2 percent of the population, women have abortions 93 percent of the time at 13 weeks or less...

... and immigrants, especially undocumented ones, are less likely to commit crimes, especially violent crimes. than are US citizens per capita.

These are LIES meant to divide us, nothing more.

Was Israel Recording EVERYTHING At Epstein's Apartment Building?!?!

Thanks for posting that, Laura... most rwingers here prolly 'think' over half of women get abortions... 90 percent of Dems, lol.

Facts like that almost all a abortions for a long time have been done sooner than the 15 weeks the GOP settled on for a proposed law... they were already 93 percent at 13 weeks or less.

Trumpers don't care about facts and figures, though; they've got their self sanctimonious hate and Trump's lies to keep them warm.

Well, I have an advantage, BJ... I can read, and I understand what I read, especially when I've seen it from the same rwing white nationalist Trump diddling source for literally years.

The analysis in #39 as to Yeshua's meaning and intent is theologically and doctrinally sound.

And it wasn't to give tax cuts to billionaires on the backs of the poor, downtrodden, and immigrant... all of which he also said that when we, individually or as a group; a church or a country, showed love and compassion for others... we also did those things for him.

Your lame Reaganisms notwithstanding.

I cringed when I saw the headline... hope they didn't do a duet!

there's also a video detailing possible stock scandal implications with a new rule... only Alito and the Chief Justice own stocks, so.

- secular "do good" philosophy.

Dragging Yeshua's message, the meaning of which is the opposite as documented in #9, of your rwing nonsense, isn't a good look, BJ.

- secular do good moral philosophy

In Western Culture is basically the result of centuries of, "Christian weathering", resulting in some atheists who follow Yeshua's well recognized good moral philosophy better than do most white nationalist 'Christians'... apparently including the former gay Democrat ones.

Meaningless Whataboutisms a Specialty!

Not however in any way an argument to the point; merely an obfuscation.

"The poor will always be with you" (Matthew 26:11) is a biblical phrase frequently misinterpreted as a justification for inaction or resignation toward poverty.

In context, Jesus was likely quoting Deuteronomy 15:11, reminding his followers of their ongoing,, duty to care for the needy, rather than condoning poverty.

Key Contextual Interpretations:
A Call to Action: It is not a fatalistic statement but a command for continuous, and, consistent generosity.

The Context of Giving:
Jesus made this statement while defending a woman who anointed him with expensive oil, arguing that loving acts toward him and the poor can coexist, rather than dismissing care for the poor.

A Reminder of Human Failure:
The phrase highlights that poverty exists due to a failure to follow God's law of community care, making it a rebuke against hardheartedness, rather than a prediction of unavoidable suffering.

Solidarity with the Poor:
Jesus often identified himself with the poor; therefore, this statement is meant to remind followers that serving the poor is a way to serve him.

Ultimately, the phrase is a challenge to open one's hand to those in need at all times, rather than a justification for neglecting them."

That's really why I killfiled him; it was sad to watch.

Like watching Lassie turn into Shaggydog.

"In the six months before Epstein was arrested in the summer of 2019 on sex trafficking charges, Bannon also communicated with Epstein about media training, rehabilitating Epstein's image, and even which lawyers to hire, according to an analysis of the Epstein files by The New York Times."

WTF? Bannon is working on rehabilitating the Prince of Pedo's image?
