An Open Letter to Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Who Thinks My Daughter Is a Tragedy

“I SAW THE SILHOUETTE of a little girl, alone, as everything around her burned in the predawn darkness.

Her name is Ward Jalal al-Shaikh Khalil. Only five years old, she survived the Israeli bombing of the Fahmi al-Jirjawi school-turned-shelter in #Gaza City on Monday. Her mother and at least five of her siblings did not.”

The car in front of me had a bumper sticker on it.
It read: "Pray for Trump Psalm 109:8"

When I got home I opened my bible to the scripture and read it and started laughing 😂

Psalm 109:8 "Let his days be few and brief; And let others step forward to replace him."

At last, I can now voice a Biblical prayer for our president!

Bible Gateway passage: Psalm 109 - King James Version

Hold not thy peace, O God of my praise; For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue. They compassed me about also with words of hatred; and fought against me without a cause. For my love they are my adversaries: but I give myself unto prayer. And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.

Where is Kilmar Abrego Garcia?
He is a legal resident of the US. He is accused of no crime, past or present.
He was kidnapped by unidentified US agents and rushed overseas to a El Salvador's most notorious prison—stripped naked, his head shaved.
The US admits his seizure was a mistake but refuses to bring him home.
A judge ordered him returned by Monday, but the Supreme Court said there was no reason to hurry.

And now? Nothing. Abrego Garcia is either imprisoned or dead.

160 years ago today, Robert E. Lee surrendered to Union forces in Richmond Virginia.

There are a lot of reasons the Confederates lost. Among them, its leaders didn't know how to run a functional economy.

Crippled by hyperinflation, trade deficits, & inability to industrialize, the Confederacy tore itself to shreds in just four years.
