Without the ACA, with cutbacks in Medicare/Medicaid, and with food safety and vaccines in the hands of RFK Jr., the entire health care system will collapse, so all of us are in trouble.
Get caught up on all your shots, and your preventative care, because it may not be there much longer. That’s one of the things to go in societies in collapse.
The right wing Evangelists supported and voted for a person with a rape judgement against him, 34 felony convictions, and many more that should have been pursued. tRump is a racist, bigot and misogynist, and the biggest liar ever elected along with being a traitor to the U.S. These ‘modern day pharisees’ have turned a blind eye, and we will all suffer for it.
Believe it or not all Christians or believers are numerologist like Madonna. Here is first kings:23 And he made a molten sea, ten cubits from the one brim to the other: it was round all about, and his height was five cubits: and a line of thirty cubits did compass it round about.
24 And under the brim of it round about there were knops compassing it, ten in a cubit, compassing the sea round about: the knops were cast in two rows, when it was cast.
25 It stood upon twelve oxen, three looking toward the north, and three looking toward the west, and three looking toward the south, and three looking toward the east: and the sea was set above upon them, and all their hinder parts were inward.
26 And it was an hand breadth thick, and the brim thereof was wrought like the brim of a cup, with flowers of lilies: it contained two thousand baths.
It is a description of the water container used to clean sacrificial blood from the first Hebrew Temple in Jerusalem. Nothing about PI.
As for the second Ezra 1 7-11 The versus say first thirty charges then basons, I don’t see any reason for an exact accounting from this passage.
7 Also Cyrus the king brought forth the vessels of the house of the Lord, which Nebuchadnezzar had brought forth out of Jerusalem, and had put them in the house of his gods;
8 Even those did Cyrus king of Persia bring forth by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and numbered them unto Sheshbazzar, the prince of Judah.
9 And this is the number of them: thirty chargers of gold, a thousand chargers of silver, nine and twenty knives,
10 Thirty basons of gold, silver basons of a second sort four hundred and ten, and other vessels a thousand.
11 All the vessels of gold and of silver were five thousand and four hundred. All these did Sheshbazzar bring up with them of the captivity that were brought up from Babylon unto Jerusalem.
Or it might have been the contents of the “vessels”, which is used in the bible to mean container.
Ok, we seriously messed up this time, but it’s a long game and since the beginning of humanity, we are actually making progress. The arc of the universe is long, but it bends toward justice.
Just go back to the sidelines, pray for the defense, help out the defense any way you can, and figure out how to do better when you get the ball back— and we will. Once the hype wears off and there is no opposition, people will look at what they have elected, and that itself will inspire some serious buyer’s remorse. The economy will continue to do whatever it wants to, since the president doesn’t actually control it. Trump will either fail to do much about the border, or there will be news reports of roundups, comparing them to Nazis with the Jews. Trump will hand Ukraine to Putin, inspiring him to start looking at what he wants next, again inspiring comparisons to appeasement of Hitler. One thing we can count on is that Trump’s handlers are actually going to work on project 2025, and he has no clue what is going on, so they are in control. Not much of what is in that plan is going to make people happy.
The game isn’t over, and we are on the right side of history. This is a very serious setback, but that’s all it is.
Looks like the “good religious people” will always choose Barabbas. Again. And Again. And again.
Matthew 27: 15-21
15 Now at that feast the governor was wont to release unto the people a prisoner, whom they would.
16] And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.
17 Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus which is called Christ?
18 For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.
19 When he was set down on the judgment seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.
20] But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.
21 The governor answered and said unto them, Whether of the twain will ye that I release unto you? They said, Barabbas.
At least the Germans in the 1930s had REAL economic woes, exacerbated by the Versailles Treaty, to excuse electing a demagogue. If Goebbels were alive today he’d marvel. “You got 80 million people to believe WHAT???”
The Bible also says that the universe is full of water (kept away from the earth by a dome), the great flood occurred when god opened “windows” in that dome. And “stars” (most “stars” are actually galaxies made up of billions of stars) were created for “signs and portents”. Oh, and the earth is “fixt and moveless” and is the absolute center of the universe. And that mammals can be dead for three days and become alive again in perfect health and working order.
The Dept of Education will be eliminated within the first few days of the new Reich err…administration. If you ever wondered what life was like for kids in the 1870s, you’ll see it when there are no public schools, only private schools for the rich. But hey, you’re supposed to get cheaper groceries, so fair trade, right?
