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.

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

Over the last ten years or so, I've been holding on by a thread to the Church, in order to not allow anyone to "force" me out of my faith that, during both good and trying times, has provided guidance, strength, and refuge.

I agree! And we cannot stop fighting for the equality that has eluded us these past 2,000+ years. My mom actually put together a bibliography of resources related to women and the Church (from many angles). I've been thinking about trying to find it, I know I have it archived somewhere!

She passed away in 2006 from early-onset Alz, which was devastating, of course. But she left behind a few things that I've often thought could be put to good use one day 🙂.
