Lord, free your people in Nicaragua. Strengthen them in this desert.

Nicaraguan priests must submit homilies for police inspection

Steve Bannon is openly campaigning to destroy the American constitution. Why does anyone from MAGA pretend otherwise? They despise this country and all it stands for:

"President Trump is going to run for a 3rd term and President Trump is going to be elected again. On the afternoon of January 20th of 2029. He's going to be President of the United States."

Thatā€™s a treasonous sentiment.

Because the GOP is better at slander than just about anybody in world history. Watching them at work is like seeing a gold medal performance at the Criminal Olympics.

This is 100% true, the GOP *is* way better at selling narratives alongside character assassination campaigns against opposition candidates well in advance of election cycles--see HRC's tar and feathering over Benghazi, Obama's birtherism campaign, and Biden's current investigation cycle in the house--I really don't think that's why Biden isn't ahead in the polls by a lot. I think it has a lot more to do with 1) polls not showing solidified opinions this far out of an election, and 2) as the couā€¦

Agree 100%. Since 1992, Dems have won the popular vote in every election but one. (36 years: the same as the time between FDR's first term LBJ's second.) They must be doing something right.
