"Forgiveness" (ridding oneself of hatred) is not, and was never meant to be understood as, "clemency" (letting evil run rampant). Go read your Bible again. "Meek," praus in Greek, is better translated as "disciplined restraint." Repentance is the condition of Salvation.

Ultimately, what did Biden in wasn't the election in 2020. Nor was it his actual policy decisions as POTUS. What did Biden in was going after Trump legally. People are funny. A lot of them don't look at a suspicious election and say, "Hey, that looks stolen." They're so hardwired against being seen as coping that they'd rather say they lost the election fairly, no matter what. It makes them feel more intellectually honest. Ah, hell, it makes them feel smarter. If you go after the guy you beat, though? That changes how people think. People who never would've thought you stole that election? Well, they start to wonder. After all, why would you go after your political opponent if you just fairly beat him and he wasn't a threat? All the same stuff applies here. When Rubio sits down with various other lead diplomats around the world, the "irregularities" won't win over many of them that didn't already agree with Rubio. What will win people over is the sense that Lula is going after Bolsonaro to protect a throne he believes his hold over is illegitimate. So if I'm the US, I want Bolsonaro to drop the election because he's being hunted and get him the hell out of there.
If I were the US and planned on doing something about this, I'd play it exactly like this. Bolsonaro was never going to annul the election. Lula controls too much of the system over there. The better alternative is to give the State Department full ammunition to treat Brazil like a hostile state being held by a rogue tyrant. The next steps involve American sanctions but also international sanctions. We have more ammo to pursue international sanctions because of stories like this. After we let them bake in economic ruin for ~6 months, then it gets turned over to the CIA for a good ole color revolution. Under the cover of that unrest, there will be an ideal window to do the whole Delta Force raid that people associate with Maduro.

Well, I lucked out and had 15 minutes warning he was going to ask so I was able to come up with something. I’m a humorous writer, but not a wit. If you’re at a party, and someone says something worthy of a funny response, a wit will come up with something funny in about two or three seconds. A humorous writer will come up with something really really funny… 30 minutes later. The French even have a saying about this. “L’esprit de l’escalier” or “the wit of the staircase” It describes the perfect comeback or clever remark that occurs to you only after the conversation is over, when you’re already walking down the stairs to leave.

Imagine watching half the country religiously celebrate the assassination of Charlie Kirk and thinking it’s a ridiculous proposition that the Left killed him. Further, imagine arriving at this conclusion because a retarded podcaster told you this, based on a hunch.

Again. I am begging all of you to lift up the voices of trans people so normal people can see how degenerate they are. This one reportedly owns a sex dungeon and is also an admitted Kabbalah witch.
Trans people have one main unifying thing in common. Only idiots are against us. Which is quite a useful feature.

Guys are not interested in head games. When a man at my work asked me out, I knew he liked the Indiana Jones films. So I sat back in my chair, looked at him, paused dramatically, and said, “You have chosen… wisely.” We’re married with four children now.
Men these days are different. The moment you say no, they’re gone. No begging, no pleading, no chasing. This generation of men will accept your rejection so fast, you’ll start wondering if they ever wanted you in the first place.

Lula calls his victory a triumph over "fascism and authoritarianism" while his political opponents have their passports seized over ALLEGATIONS. No charges have been filed. This is the political Left. If they get power here, they will do the same thing to you. Historically, it doesn’t end any other way.
A vitória de um povo que nunca deixou de esperançar. A vitória da democracia sobre o fascismo e o autoritarismo. A vitória de um Brasil que escolheu a esperança, a união e o futuro. A vitória é do Brasil e do povo brasileiro! E isso ninguém tira de nós! 🇧🇷 🎥 @ricardostuckert

This is so disingenuous because there isn't some vast spectrum of individuality amongst "queers", but the opposite, extremely rigid archetypes you do everything you can to mold yourselves into, clone armies of liliths with the exact same personality.
Gender binary puts horrible boundaries on human possiblities

Another person has died in ICE custody — this is the 28th known death this year. The cruelty of this rogue agency is beyond unconscionable. Abolish ICE.

Wages have been stagnant since the 1970s
I'm in my 40s. I'm a lawyer. My wife is a lawyer. We both work full time. We cannot afford the house my parents purchased on a single electrician's income in their 30s. We cannot afford the house my immigrant grandparents purchased on a single MTA bus driver's salary in their 30s. They had SIX CHILDREN. For 30 years, politicians in Washington & their oligarch allies convinced regular people that this was just about avocado toast and fancy coffee. In reality, this is end-stage capitalism. Everyone is stuck in place. It's impossible to buy a home. It's too costly to move. We work too much to have passion projects. We don't have enough savings to start our own businesses. We can't afford to go without healthcare to do it. Thanks for writing this article @troy_closson. Would be very happy to discuss further. nytimes.com/2026/10/25/nyreg…

My grocery bill TRIPLED under Biden. It's finally been going down the past couple of months. Anyone who thinks Dems are good for the economy is probably named "Van Winkle".

Remember when Elon Musk acquired Twitter, then fired 80% of its workforce and restored freedom of speech to this platform? That was 4 years ago today. It was the pivotal moment when left-wing ideologues lost control of the narrative. Now imagine just how much better our government would function if 80% of bureaucrats and Congress were fired.
