The SIX Reasons Trump Will Never Return to the White House and other CONSERVATIVE voices

RantWoman loves the concise statements here.

The concise statements DO NOT get at a bunch of issues RantWoman thinks are on the public's mind, but the are one place to start.

Lincoln Project's Stewart Stevens: GOP complete collapse of moral authority

"A lot of this has to do with race."

RantWoman recommends EVERYONE banish the term "Majority Minority" in favor of majority non-white.

Chad Pesach to all who observe.

Eid Mubarak to all who recently celebrated the end of Ramadan.

Cut to the chase: one of the most moving things RantWoman absorbed when Dudu Mtazo was Friend in Residence at NPYM: one powerful form of resistance during the apartheid era in South Africa was people who defied pass laws to pray together. What if EVERYONE just stepped back from their buttons and figured out ways to pray together, pay attention to the needs of women and children and decided to figure out how to live together?

RantWoman is:

--noting all the campus demonstrations against the humanitarian outrages in Gaza

--noting both physical and electronic walls going up lots of ways

--noting rounds of military tit for tat: oh look what our drones and air defenses can or cannot do. Oh look. See us strike near to but not directly at nuclear facilities.

--Overly opinionated about a bunch of sad old men world leaders losing their grip.

--As outraged as anyone about humanitarian disaster in #Gaza

--prone to fall into rabbit holes about assymetrical warfare, one term for both September 11 and October 7

Full disclosure1: RantWoman graduated from Princeton on disciplinary probation as one of 89 students arrested for occupying Nassau Hall in connection with demands that the university divest from companies doing business with South Africa and a statement from then President William Bowen about Board of Trustees action.

Full disclosure 2: In 1982 the Israeli Defense Forces collaborated with a Lebanese militia conducted a massacre at two refugee camps in southern Lebanon. RantWoman and others in a small affinity group stood on a street corner outside the Israeli consulate while a number of Jewish human rights activists occupied the Israeli consulate demanding that Israel take steps to allow humanitarian assistance.

RantWoman will probably post some more protest links just for documentation purposes.

RantWoman presents various media moments about the April 15 protests all over the US objecting to US tax dollars being used to fund mass murder in #Gaza.

The nonviolent witness is powerful.

First RantWoman is going to allow herself a poetic reflection about the human scale figures drawling all over the infrastructure required by the automobile and the need to shift away from the fossil fuel economy. RantWoman means to tug this them out in more detail, but in the meantime, appreciate the witness and various angles about nonviolent resistance.

 #Resurrection #TDOV #Easter2024

Message a little too long for Elon's sandbox since RantWoman REFUSES to PAY for the privilege of writing whole screeds. The BEAUTY Twitter /X is that entries are SHORT.

This just in!

#MAGA "Christians" have all cracked open the #TrumpBible and read up on "Thou shalt not bear false witness." Then they flipped over to the Constitution for a reminder, as if they can't tell in the middle of #Ramadan, that NOT EVERYONE IN THE US is Christian.

Maybe they kind of forgot about the #Resurrection in their haste to lose their minds about #TransgenderDayofVisibility #TDOV, for God's sake falling this year ON EASTER SUNDAY! What horrors. What disrespect..

 

Or RantWoman set everyone's hair on fire: for transgender people, living the way they understand God has made them is, in important ways like a resurrection.

Following all of these collisions with reality, the Bible, and the Constution, MAGA collectively all hung their heads in embarrassment and resolved to retreat from public life and about 5 years of prayer and contemplation.

#APrilFool !

#AprilFoolsDay #AprilFoolsDay2024

#HappyEaster anyway.

PS. The other MAGA theme of the week is...IMMIGRANTS, all of them, the one's that died when that cargo ship brought down that bridge, the ones who pick everyone's crops, clean hotels and office buildings, the ones who do all those dangerous construction jobs... RantMom's church is so cool: the bulletin had the Lord's prayer in about 6 languages and the pastor told people to pray in their heart language. AND There is a transgender choir that practices there. So TAKE THAT you underwear obsessed followers of ...SOMETHING.
