The #Trump admin has directed funds to #Freedom250 that #Congress appropriated to a different group, #American250, a statutorily bipartisan group required to detail its spending for lawmakers. The White House appears to have set up Freedom250 to “sidestep” those requirements.

Dialogue: The Unarmed Prophet and the Armed World
A conversation between Girolamo Savonarola and Niccolò Machiavelli
Florence. Night. The Piazza della Signoria is empty, though the stones still remember fire. The ghost of Girolamo Savonarola stands near the place where he was hanged and burned. Niccolò Machiavelli enters, older now, carrying a manuscript beneath his arm.
SAVONAROLA:
You return to the place of ashes, Messer Niccolò.
MACHIAVELLI:
Florence has many places of ashes, Fra Girolamo. Yours is only the most famous.
SAVONAROLA:
And you have made use of it.
MACHIAVELLI:
I made use of what happened. That is not the same as rejoicing in it.
SAVONAROLA:
You wrote that I was ruined because I was unarmed.
MACHIAVELLI:
Were you not?
SAVONAROLA:
I preached repentance. I called a city to righteousness. I turned hearts toward God.
MACHIAVELLI:
For a time.
SAVONAROLA:
Truth is not false because men grow tired of it.Read the full Dialogue at PeaceGrooves.

A quotation from Lyman Beecher
It was as dark a day as ever I saw. The injury done to the cause of Christ [by disestablishment], as we then supposed, was irreparable. For several days I suffered what no tongue can tell for the best thing that ever happened to the State of Connecticut. It cut the churches loose from dependence on state support. It threw them wholly on their own resources and on God.
Lyman Beecher (1775-1863) American minister, preacher, abolitionist
Autobiography, Vol. 1, ch. 51 “Downfall of the Standing Order” (1864) [ed. Charles BeecherMore about this quote: wist.info/beecher-lyman/83657/

Blurred Lines: Trump’s AI Imagery and the Evangelical Crisis of Identity – Franklin Graham
by Winston Wendell A Cultural Commentary - April 16, 2026 The recent controversy surrounding Donald Trump’s AI-generated social media posts—depicting him in messianic imagery—has unveiled a disturbing reality within the American evangelical movement. When Trump shared an image suggestive of Christ, he wasn't just committing a lapse in judgment; he was engaging in a form of narcissism that borders on blasphemy. However, more alarming than the post itself is the blatant toadyism […] -

On Monday, #PopeLeo said he would continue to publicly oppose #war, while downplaying the idea that he was engaged in a direct dispute with #Trump.
“The things I say are not meant as attacks on anyone,” Leo told reporters.
He added: “I do not look at my role as being political, a politician. I don’t want to get into a debate with him. I don’t think that the message of the Gospel is meant to be abused in the way that some people are doing.”
