I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period
We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾♀️.
Dictators are created due to cruelty, cowardice, & compliance! IF THEIR ASSES will ignore the Supreme Court, we can definitely IGNORE HIM!

Great discussions
Join the most interesting and insightful discussions.
Of course advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this.
The Secretary is unfit to lead.
One of the fundamental misunderstandings of the Healthcare discussion is that Healthcare is NOT a product. It is not fungible.
You cannot go and buy a new son or wife like shopping for a new Ford or Chevy.
Thus, the entire concept of market-product-pricing is not applicable.
Americans paid 8% of GDP for Healthcare from WW2 until 1988 thanks to Reagan's move to create private insurance. That was the same as every other modern nation.
Surprise. Every other modern nation still spends about 10% of GDP …
The insurance companies have so much power and money most people have no idea just how much.
Back when we were trying to get Cigna to pay disability for my husband, I had a conversation with a lawyer about a law that was originally made to protect small businesses and their employees but the insurance companies found a loophole to help them not pay.
The lawyer told me that for five years a group of lawyers, people from the insurance industry and lawmakers would meet to discuss this loophole and how to fix it finally gave up.
He told me that if every disabled person in this country brought a class action suit, the case would be dead in less than a year because of the money the insurance companies have.
We won our case against Cigna, on our own. And the major reason we won?
California. Yep, they sued Cigna and other companies about the way they process claims and won.
Once we reminded Cigna that our policy was issued in CA and that they had to follow the rules in regards to that lawsuit, things changed and all the lies (yes they lie) and the roadblocks they tried to use suddenly stopped and we were good to go.
Thanks California.
My point, insurance companies care about one thing, profits and until we can get that kind of money out of politics, we can't have nice things.
