Psalm 137 is my answer.

Biden and the left have stolen our country, culture and people. They have placed us in a foreign land. Now they expect us to praise them?

1 By the rivers of Babylon we sat and wept
when we remembered Zion.
2 There on the poplars
we hung our harps,
3 for there our captors asked us for songs,
our tormentors demanded songs of joy;
they said, “Sing us one of the songs of Zion!”
4 How can we sing the songs of the Lord
while in a foreign land?
5 If I forget you, Jerusalem,
may my right hand forget its skill.
6 May my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth
if I do not remember you,
if I do not consider Jerusalem
my highest joy.
7 Remember, Lord, what the Edomites did
on the day Jerusalem fell.
“Tear it down,” they cried,
“tear it down to its foundations!”
8 Daughter Babylon, doomed to destruction,
happy is the one who repays you
according to what you have done to us.
9 Happy is the one who seizes your infants
and dashes them against the rocks.

I pray for the wrath of God upon the left. I will rejoice when I see it. Yeah, it’s in the Bible too.

I know this Psalm from the musical “Godspell” (”On the Willows”) — I never really knew where it came from, as I am woefully & shamefully ignorant of the written Bible — but reading these words, and hearing the tune of the lament in my head has brought me to tears.

I honestly don’t know what is the right prayer for a believer in these days ... I ask God to bring His justice back into the world if He feels we are still deserving, But I fear that He has stepped away, especially from (what used to be) America.

That said, I think the point of the article was to shame and force guilt unfairly.
