“The Capitol building has cameras everywhere”

That’s occurred to me also.

The battle should have been fought decades ago in the pulpits. The church elected not to address our national sins.

I hope you got your big boy pants on because this is going to hurt.

The church started the whole thing. As I understand it, and I could be wrong about this so feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, but, as I understand it, this first "act of Congress" was to fund missionaries to Haiti.

That is to say, the first people to rely on other people's money instead of trusting God to provide for them was our fellow Christians.

And it continues to this day. The church I used to attend had a Grant Writer on staff. His or her sole job was applying for other people's money to pay for this or that church "ministry". Whether it be marriage counseling and seminars or drug counseling and halfway houses or any other number of good works.

Commence flaming.

It’s a show of force meant to intimidate us.

Don’t forget the people who sat in the pews.

80,000,000 votes and Scared to Death of his supporters? Makes no sense cause if you were so popular YOUR PEOPLE would be out in the Millions to Protect you and fend off a few dozen ICP boogaloos. Which btw Google has scrubbed every reference to the ICP Boogaloos.

Definition of banana republic: see Mexico. My. Husband was in Mexico during an election years ago and saw their army in the streets with guns, not unlike what you see in DC. The army was there to remind people (how) to vote. I fear that will be the next step here.

The believers who sit in the pews are the church.

Agree, but not all those that sit in the pews are ‘believers’.

2 Chronicles 7:14 refers to believers. GOD knows who they are.

“The identity of the shooter is hardly a mystery. But it has been withheld from the public. Why?”

A member of the Black Caucus would be my guess.

“Then Trump would appear and announce he has invoked the Insurrection Act and plans to continue governing under some emergency decree.”

That’ll never happen. He’s been threatened by someone(s) to go quietly and docilely like a little lamb.

“The battle should have been fought decades ago in the pulpits.”

We feel the same, and won’t attend a church where the pastor isn’t overtly political and conservative. (Our pastor in CA handed out yard signs for GOP candidates.) My mom visited us last month and said all of this is the result of the churches not taking firm political stands — after all, that’s why America was born in 1620. She and dad were in the ministry for 50 years, and he never backed off.

“they want to make conservatives look like brain dead, highly dangerous knuckle-draggers”

It’s psy-ops, for sure.

“His or her sole job was applying for other people’s money to pay for this or that church ‘ministry’.”

I guess that depends on the church and/or denomination. If Dad noticed visitors in the congregation, before offering was taken he announced that offering was only for members and regular attendees. It wasn’t the responsibility of other to contribute.

We also didn’t do bazaars, bake sales, or any other revenue-generating events unless it was just among members. It was the “money changers in the temple” thing.
