The chief danger that confronts the coming century will be religion without the Holy Ghost,
Christianity without Christ, forgiveness without repentance, salvation without regeneration,
politics without God, heaven without hell.
William Booth
“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.”
― William Saroyan
The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of the blessings. The inherent blessing of socialism is the equal sharing of misery. -- Winston Churchill
Ignorance is not an opinion, liberals
I believe in Christianity as I believe the sun has risen; not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else. C. S. Lewis
if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
2 Chronicles 7:14
THERE WILL BE NO THREATS OF ANY KIND AT THIS BLOG, TO POLITICIANS OR OTHER COMMENTERS. thank you.
Adjusting to the customs and practices of Congress can be tricky for sensible individuals. If not watched very closely, this lady could conceivably vote her patriotism instead of her propaganda. Hell, she might even slip and spend some of her OWN money.
Not to worry, tho. She’ll eventually figure out that doing the right thing is the fastest way to ensure one-and-done status. It’s almost impossible to be a good congresskritter when there are so many other factors to consider.

BOCOPRO; lots of temptations, etc………..I think this new group of youthful politicians actually DO want things better, actually ARE a big wary of what their constituents would do if they didn’t FIX things…let’s hope you’re wrong this time because that scenario you paint’s been right FAR FAR too many times.
The list of freshman Republicans that did attend the bipartisan event includes: Sen. Katie Britt of Alabama; Rep. John James of Michigan; Rep. Mark Alford of Missouri; Rep. John Duarte of California; Rep. Tom Kean of New Jersey; Rep. Kevin Kiley of California; Reps. Nick Langworthy and Mike Lawler of New York; Rep. Nathaniel Moran of Texas; Rep. Dale Strong of Alabama, and Rep. Rudy Yakym of Indiana, according to Fox News.

Congresswoman De La Cruz’s election to Congress was one of those ceiling-busting moments. I lived in Hidalgo County for many years. I knew of one conservative (Republican) state judge in all that time — appointed by Gov. Bush to fill a vacancy and then failed to achieve election. The Democrat Party was always favored in the RGV because corruption is the primary source of income. Ms. De La Cruz shattered that, and good for her. Looking beyond this conservative woman, we must consider how the people have changed their political views — and how best to achieve them. I don’t know anything about the election — it must have been a doozy of a campaign, but good for her. That said, here’s what I think Biden will do with her letter: oh, never mind. This is a G-rated blog.

I’ve never before heard of her, so I did a little reading up. She seems to be “the real deal”!

More power to her. And I mean a HIGHER power to her. She has guts. I prayed down that list of freshmen you posted, btw. (Then I saw the name Yak-Um. Well, he spells it Yakym, but it seems like a descriptive name for a politician.)
Yes, I remember her campaign. A former Democrat and Trump Republican. In her own words: “The Hispanic poverty rate dropped by over 30% between 2010 and 2020. In 2019, Hispanic unemployment hit an all-time low as we led the country in the creation of new small businesses. These are not just statistics. As a single mom and entrepreneur, I saw the American Dream that brought my abuela to this country become my American Reality. Rather than coming to terms with these developments, the Democrats’ rhetoric and policies are increasingly out of touch.
A flashpoint was when former President Barack Obama pulled his party away from Bill Clinton’s “pro-growth” message that was popular with Latinos, toward a neo-Marxist preoccupation with “income inequality,” by declaring it “the defining challenge of our time.” Obama’s comments drew cheers from campus intellectuals, but it left upwardly mobile Hispanics scratching our heads.”
Let’s hope we see more!
