One that should help her with women voters Is that she plans to erase the tax burden totally for waitreses.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Do you have her on tape saying so? Didn't Trump already say he wasn't going to tax any tips?
What effect do you think her policy to increase taxes will have on the economy?

Copying Trump to make her look superficially good. And what about male waiters? Discrimination on the basis of sex is illegal.

Her government (she is still VP with Biden) believes in tax and spend HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS of dollars on a useless war and on illegal migrant invaders while people can't even buy enough food. None of that bothers you because you will always support the Leftists. That's a spiritual sickness.

And you are OK with that lame excuse? No, that was a deliberate ploy to avoid exposing the corruption of the election "machinery" in every state. It would have overturned the bogus results and left Trump in place until the matter was properly addressed. And the entire government (including SCOTUS) did not want Trump to remain as the legitimate president.

I don't know enough to make a judgment. If in fact the election is not their jurisdiction but the jurisdiction of the state legislature then your ire should be directed at them.

Is this supposed to be reporting? It sounds an awful lot like campaigning. News? or just a library of opinion pieces? Where do I go to find the news?

When I was in college I was a new believer having been baptized a year earlier, I lived in a brother's house, and we didn't have a TV. I was doing much better in school since getting saved, I was also going to church meetings three days a week, we had morning watch in the word of God each morning and we had a prevailing campus gospel ministry. In every way I felt my life, my health including mental health, and my joy were much better.

At this time I was in an english class which was talking about how TV and mass media can be used to manipulate people with propaganda. They weren't talking about it as a "bad thing" but rather as a powerful tool that we needed to understand. In one of the class discussions it came out that I had not heard about 3 mile Island which was front page news (this was spring of 1979). This college was in Houston Texas. The teacher was stunned and couldn't believe I didn't have a TV and didn't watch the news.

So I said, OK, I am ignorant about 3 mile island, what is it that I should be doing right now because of it? The answer was nothing. There was nothing in the news that was a light to my path. Now granted that was probably one of the most important news stories in the US in the last 45 years. But whether you watched the nightly news, read about it in a magazine a month later, or read a history of it a few years later, did it really matter?

In the last 50 years I have had a working TV in my house for about ten years. At that time I tried watching the news but could not stomach all the commercials and the banality. I don't believe the nightly news is there to educate you, rather it is there to mesmerize you. All those people during the pandemic who acted like drones, they were mesmerized.

Everything created has been created for in Him and for Him so, there it would seem to me that there must be a good purpose inherent in it somewhere, even if no one utilizes it for such a purpose.

All things came into being through the word of God and apart from the word of God there is nothing that has come into being. So even if you can squeeze some good out of a TV, it is nothing like what you will get from the word of God. So if you spend ten times as much time with the word of God as you do with a TV you might be right. But we know that is not the case. American children on average spend 3 hours a day watching TV and 5-7 hours a day in "screen time" referring to computers, phones, and TVs. How much time do they spend in front of the word of God each day? Certainly not at school.

They are all being mesmerized and it would be apparent to all who have broken free of this cult.

Currently, I'm experiencing a particular affinity to Isaiah 54:13

13Then all your sons will be taught by the LORD,e(cited in John 6:45)
and great will be their prosperity.

I trust that God will not abandon us forever,
In the same chapter:
7“For a brief moment I forsook you,
but with great compassion I will bring you back.
8In a surge of anger
I hid My face from you for a moment,
but with everlasting kindness I will have compassion on you,”
says the LORD your Redeemer.

No one can convince me to abandoning hope.
