Sometimes, when he fails badly enough, Trump can be forced to do the thing he says he never does: back down.

Today is just one more turn on the roller coaster - but it is more evidence of why we can't give up or let up.

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

People.

They’ll lose their minds over a delayed train, snap over a slow barista. Let a spilled coffee ruin their day.

But when it comes to the big stuff, staying in the wrong job, letting their dreams die quietly. Wasting years on auto pilot.

Nothing. No urgency. No reaction.

We treat small problems like emergencies and the real emergencies as background noise.

Why do we do that?

Do you agree with our Vice President?

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!

sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.

Tell me again why we’re letting a 78 year old, legit smelly, odorous, frail, loser old man who bankrupted a CASINO bankrupt the country?

Congress? Any answers?

I cannot express how much I admire and respect this man. I supported him for president back in 2019 and will support him for ANY elected office in the future. He’s the real deal 💙💙

I refuse to be the kind of person who loses their mind over a delayed train or lets a spilled coffee set the tone for the whole day.

I want to be the one who stays composed, who sees the good even when things don’t go as planned. The kind of person who breathes through the little chaos and still finds beauty in how the day unfolds.

I want to be soft. I want to be steady.

You hit publish, and there’s no reaction.

No likes. No shares. Just silence.

But writing isn't about receiving praise.

It’s about leaving parts of yourself for others to discover.

It may take days.

It may take years.

But keep writing, regardless…

Uncommon advice:

If you don't know what to pursue in life right now, pursue yourself.

Pursue becoming the healthiest, happiest, most healed, most present, most confident version of yourself.

Then the right path will reveal itself.

healing isn’t cute. it’s not aesthetic. or curatable. its not quoting affirmations you don’t believe in yet.

it’s texting a friend “i know i said i was over it. i lied.” it’s crying in the bathroom, washing your face, and going anyway. it’s learning the same lesson five times before it sticks.

its boring. messy. inconvenient. repetitive. and most of the time, it doesn’t even feel like healing. until one day, it does.

Who the fcuk is making the decisions for Biden? What Obama & Biden have done flooding the borders with illegals, rapists & murders from Latin America, Middle East, North Africa, Saharan Africa etc.
Jacqui Flack's avatar

It’s Obama who is pulling the strings. Next step - voting rights, houses and credit cards for illegals - vote Obama in forever. End democracy, end religious freedom - and god help women!

Obama hates America. How could a nation of people elect someone who hates their country? Insane.

Because it is! These folks are just plain evil.

It’s almost like it’s all about playing dress up, virtue signaling, and narcissism.
