teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

I've been reading that there are several congressional Republicans who are expressing reservations (to put it mildly) about Trump accepting this plane from Qatar. What I haven't read is any of them calling for a vote about it.
Colour me shocked.

Think of all the cancer research that Trump-Musk defunded that could be funded for this wasteful parade.
Not to mention that Trump and Musk cut mortgage help for Veterans—let them lose their homes. But they’ve got $45 million to force the U.S. Army to march for Trump’s birthday?
Quote:President Trump's June military parade in D.C. could cost $25 million to $45 million and involve dozens of war planes, hundreds of Army vehicles and thousands of soldiers sleeping in government office buildings.

They should just tell him he had a parade. He'll insist it was the bigliest and most beautiful and make up details about the f55 flyover.

Just round up a bunch of people with kazoos to march around Four Seasons Landscaping. Send up a drone or two that are altered to look like planes real far away.

Quote:President Trump said that he thinks former FBI Director James Comey’s Instagram photo of seashells on a beach arranged to form the numbers “8647” was a call for his assassination, saying that the Justice Department will deal with the repercussions.
The post on Thursday, which Comey has since removed, garnered significant blowback from much of Trump’s base with many understanding the numbers to be a call for violence against the 47th president.
“He knew exactly what that meant. A child knows what that meant. If you’re the FBI director and you don’t know what that meant, that meant assassination. And it says it loud and clear,” Trump said in an interview with FOX News Channel’s Bret Baier.
“Now, he wasn’t very competent, but he was competent enough to know what that meant. And he did it for a reason and he was hit so hard because people like me, they like what’s happening with our country,” He told the “Special Report” host. “Our country’s become respected again and all this. And he’s calling for the assassination of the president.”

By the Crom he is snowflakiest snowflake in history of pussified, right wing snowflakes. Even Stalin wasn't so paranoid.
The first revolt is against the supreme tyranny of theology, of the phantom of God. As long as we have a master in heaven, we will be slaves on earth.

The snowiest of flakes. Melts inches above the ground at temperatures lower than 32f.
