…and is articulating a basic gospel principle in this very heartening and encouraging article: To save your life, you must lose it. So heartening to see somebody on the Right speaking the truth. A prayer to accompany this article: Have mercy on me, O God, according to your merciful love; according to your abundant mercy blot out my transgressions. Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin! For I know my transgressions, and my sin is... Read more

A memorial to Emmett Till, a 14 year old kid who was savagely murdered for being black in 1955 Mississippi, was riddled with bullets in October 2016.

Mika Brzezinski’s response was pretty funny: Bravo to Senator Sasse for being the extremely rare Republican to actually condemn this stuff without reflexively shouting “They do it too!” No. They do not do it too.
