				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><p>Tim and Jen over at Truthslinger central on X have exposed the arrogance, hatred and futility of Maine&#8217;s womanish political culture.  The masculine edge that is forcing it&#8217;s way on to the main stage of the globe is encouraging.  Cowards like Zelensky, Biden and Netanyahoo are being exposed.</p>
<p>Men don&#8217;t murder women and children.  Full stop.  Men protect the vulnerable, weak and innocent &#8212; especially when it is feminine (not feminist).  Men don&#8217;t brag about sexual conquests.  Men choose virtue every single time.  Men know that humanity is capable of dark horrors that would make satan himself blush.  Men make war based on law.  Emotion isn&#8217;t a thing for men in battle.</p>
<p>Tim is winning his battle with the school board in Gardiner because he is unafraid and masculine.  Sadly, I&#8217;m told by men in the know from the small historic town that these &#8220;women&#8221; will ultimately get their transgender clinic installed in the school.  Maine&#8217;s men are too busy eating themselves fat while scrolling porn on their phones to rise up to protect their women and children.</p>
<p>Tim refuses to count himself among these cowards.</p>
<p>Amen.</p></div>

				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><p>In the column linked above (click on the image to read the column) the author praises a married couple for their social work.  The husband is a doctor who matured into a deep Christian faith that became increasingly public.  He and his wife did much to promote family life and marriage.  I&#8217;ve met many similar couples over my years of work in politics.  And I am also, like the author, grateful for their witness.</p>
<p>Referring to the familiar passage about Sodom in Genesis 18 Francis X Maier, the column&#8217;s author, observes, &#8220;Betty and Les aren’t alone; they’re simply two good people among not merely fifty or thirty or ten other good men and women, but rather millions of &#8216;ordinary&#8217; others who still, quietly but faithfully, provide the remaining leaven of virtue in everyday American life. That’s a source of hope. It needs to be fed with courage and zeal. Which means that we need to wake up and live our Christian faith as an urgent, salvific mission; a matter with eternal import.&#8221;</p>
<p>Amen and amen.  We Christians must <a href="https://michaelheath.org/iceman">live our Christian faith</a> as an &#8220;urgent, salvific mission; a matter with eternal import.&#8221;</p></div>

				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><p><em>Stephen Baskerville is always worth reading.  Here are his thoughts on the recent scolding of Europe delivered by VP Vance.</em></p>
<p>European leaders are tearing their hair out. Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin are negotiating an end to the Ukraine war (and other matters) and leaving the Europeans out of the talks — effectively, leaving them high and dry. Adding insult to injury, US Vice President J.D. Vance then delivered a <strong><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCDVDNMOArY&amp;t=4392s" rel="">scathing condemndation</a></strong> of those leaders for their narcissism and authoritarianism and for betraying only Ukraine, but the very western values (like free speech) that they claim to be upholding. Vance made it clear that Europe is no longer relevant to global <strong><a href="https://www.arktosjournal.com/p/a-scramble-for-europe-is-now-inevitable?publication_id=1990457&amp;post_id=157218216&amp;isFreemail=false&amp;r=dx3nm&amp;triedRedirect=true" rel="">politics, security, or much of anything else</a></strong>.</p>
<p>So European leaders like Emmanuel Macron and Keir Starmer and above all Ursula von der Leyen are ranting and raving and reviving old pipedreams like building a European defense force in order to support Ukraine on their own — and to consolidate power in Paris, London, and Brussels. Having obsequiously followed the Americans into the war, these toadies are stuck with it and unable to follow the Americans out. (Reminiscent of East European puppet rulers refusing to accept the end of the Cold War?) <a href="https://stephenbaskerville.substack.com/p/europes-irrelevance-update-to-europeans">READ MORE</a></p></div>
