That destruction is crystallized and illustrated in the starkest way possible in his razing of a wing of the White House to build a guilded ballroom as he chooses to withhold support for food to hungry families and children.
Please don't tell me you can justify all this in the name of Jesus Christ.
Because you can't.

White Christians own the Trump presidency, having voted — across the board from evangelicals to mainline Protestants to Catholics — three times in the majority for Trump.
And for his cruelty visited on children, immigrants, his critics… And for his destruction of longstanding norms of decency and respect for the Constitution that keep democracy going.

"Arkansas is religiously an evangelical Christian state; Southern Baptists are the largest evangelical denomination in existence; and 80 percent of evangelicals countrywide vote MAGA. …
I am not a MAGA supporter. I think MAGA is an abomination and scourge on not only the Republican Party but America, and certainly evangelical Christianity."

She answers her critic thoughtfully, refusing to cede ground on the well-documented fact that a very large percentage of white evangelicals are the core support of Donald Trump and the cruelties he is visiting on so many people. As she states,

In the essay I've just linked, Falkenberry responds to an Arkansas man who emailed her a lengthy response to her previous statement about spiritual abuse, saying that, in effect, she's painting with a broad brush, that not all Christians and not all Southern Baptists are like what she's describing.

Arkansas writer Gwen Falkenberry, who grew up Southern Baptist in Arkansas, recently published an essay in which she speaks about the "spiritual abuse" she and others, notably women, have endured in Southern Baptist churches.

CW: controversial.
Many men are poor. But women, as a group taken together, are poorer. And this is true in all countries in the world, not just those known for gendered oppression.
If you’re a man who’s interested in having more connection & understanding, I think it's important to consciously know this, “I am richer, in money terms, as a man, than most women are.”

⚠️ Stroke Symptoms in Women👭 May Differ From Men👬 
"..women, may experience stroke👉 symptoms that are not included in the Be Fast acronym. 
👉 Women are less likely to be recognised as having a stroke because their symptoms can differ from men’s. 
👉 👉 These may include sudden fatigue, confusion, nausea, fainting, or general weakness rather than clear paralysis or slurred speech.

💬I received a surprise text today—and it made my day. 😀
One of my former online fitness clients, Carol Ann (age 55), hit a major milestone:
🧱 Plank with a 45 lb plate
⏱ Held for 2 minutes
🔥 First time ever
🎯Carol Ann continues to break stereotypes about women and aging—proving that strength, discipline, and progress have no expiration date.
📣Let’s keep celebrating everyday victories—because they’re anything but ordinary.

It was unclear why Admiral Holsey is leaving now, less than a year into his tenure, & in the midst of the biggest operation in his 37-year career.
…Since early Sept, #US Special Ops forces have struck at least 5 boats off the coast of #Venezuela that the #Trump admin claims were transporting drugs, killing 27 people. US officials have privately made it clear that the main goal is to drive Nicolás #Maduro, #Venezuela’s #authoritarian leader, from #power.
…Admiral Holsey, who is #Black, becomes only the latest in a line of more than a dozen #military leaders, many of them people of color &/or #women, who have left their jobs this year. Most have been fired by #Defense Secretary #PeteHegseth or pushed out.

Since March 8, we’ve been running Poland’s first abortion center - Abotak. A few days ago, butyric acid– a substance that is not only foul-smelling but also dangerous to health - was deliberately poured on the entrance to Abotak. This is the third acid attack we've faced.
City authorities and the police do not react to any of the complaints filed by our neighbours and ourselves, allowing for further attacks.
We need your support to deal with the costs of these attacks ➡️ https://cause.lundadonate.org/aborcyjnydreamteam/bbfeng
Anti abortion fanatics hold aggressive, loud demonstrations in front of our center, using sirens, drums and - recently - strobe lights, pouring paint on the sidewalk and building facade, but never facing any consequences despite all this being witnessed by the police.
