Imagine the damage a digital Gestapo — knowing everything the US govt knows about us — could do. Elon’s ‘Musk-rats’ reportedly aim to amass such a Panopticon database, a nexus for control lacking even a pretense of privacy safeguards. They must be stopped. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Why not to their own country??? The detainees were told that they needed to sign a document agreeing to be deported to Libya, the document said. When they refused, they were put in separate rooms, “cuffed in,” and forced to sign the document, the motion says. #Libya www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

I really wish that when Trump posts something stupid like that AI thing of him as Pope that people would just totally IGNORE it. It isn't going to happen. He's posting it to get a reaction. IMO, the response that would piss him off most is NO reaction. None. DON'T FEED THE TROLL! #Trump #Pope

I hate to be that guy, but this is the five-alarm fire, and every elected Democrat and frankly, every Washington reporter should be ringing the bell. If it can happen to him, it can happen to anyone. Nobody with a voice should give this administration a moment’s peace about it.

In a reasonable world, these statements wouldn't be considered anti-Christian but Rubio definitely thinks of them that way: -- The meek shall inherit the earth. -- God and Christ are always superior to Trump. -- Judge not, lest ye be judged. -- It's very difficult for the rich to enter Heaven.
