Not meant to derail, but this is a GREAT point about churches in general in this country that donate to political causes and campaigns.

Carry on.

Hey, remember that thing about church and state? Churches that directly contribute to political causes should lose their non-taxable status.

Steve Bannon believes the RNC is responsible for yesterday’s election losses.

It couldn’t be that it’s gotten to the point where for every MAGA vote Drumpf “gets out,” he gets out two or more sane votes, could it?

Naaaaaaah …

I’m quite happy to see news agencies starting to call Trump’s lies “lies” instead of weaseling around with “claims” or “assertions” or some such.

> It’s the latest in a string of legal and financial setbacks for Lindell, who propagates former President Donald Trump’s lies that the 2020 election was stolen from him

Is pissing off the millionaires and billionaires by saying they couldn’t get out the votes a good move? Is their grassroots operation that strong?

Not familiar with the meme led me to [Matthew 15: 21-28](https://weeklyhubris.com/nevertheless-she-persisted-matthew-15-21-28/) which in turn led to Jesus rebuking the Pharisees who were trying to trap him,

New sitcom, Mike Lindell and Rudi Guilliani share a rat infested studio apartment in Brooklyn, and come up with wacky schemes to try to pay the rent and keep creditors at bay. Spoiler alert: Trump joins them in season 4.
