“Maybe it’s payback for giving away the Panama Canal to the Chinese.”
Or maybe he’s just old. Not everyone’s death is some sort of political or moral retribution.
The guy’s 98. It is at least somewhat expected that he will expire at some point, right?

I just can't imagine Jimmy Carter catching a ride to Epstein Island on the Lolita Express.

Your memories are off. 26th amendment lowering voting age to 18 was ratified 1971. You were eligible to vote in ‘76. My first vote was for the better alternative to Ford, in ‘76 Iowa caucuses, Reagan. Ronnie came close against Ford in ‘76.

“”I always thought he was an antisemite.””
I believe he was. I had a family member tell me that wasn’t true - he just didn’t like Bibi.... I never changed my mind about him.
As as a Southerner growing up in rural Georgia, I heard Southern Baptists say, "the Jews killed our Savior." I will not single the Baptists out because many of Methodists and the Church of Christ congregations in the rural South believed the same. Jimmy Carter was steeped in these old timey bigoted beliefs. In those times they would have hardly recognized their own bigotry because to them, everyone understood and believed that way.

And yet most of the Protestant religions to a degree were Anti-Semetic, but forgot that Jesus was himself born a Jew. I always found the HYPOCRISY Amazing.
I grew up Episcopalian but left a long time ago. Found out I have a few drops of jewish blood and now just was soon self identify as such.

God is sovereign. His compassion, love, grace and forgiveness are without bounds. I extend, most humbly, peace and compassion for President Carter and his family.

I’m probably a little younger than you, but not by much. I haven’t served in the military, so thank you for your service. I didn’t vote for Carter the first time, or the second. Actually, I voted for John B. Anderson, as he was my congressman.
But at the time, I didn’t know liberal from conservative from a hole in the ground. Anderson would’ve been a big disaster.
Carter was better than Clinton, Obama, and definitely better than Biden, but not by much.
They’ve ALL been big disasters. I’ve voted Republican, even when I had to hold my nose to do it.
I hope the republicans can get their act together, because I’m ready to declare as an independent- they’ve become the RINO party, it seems.

I’ve already said enough about him. As a last act he will reduce humanity’s carbon footprint, which means something to people like him.

Has it ever been determined what was in those envelopes?

Hospice Care basically means assisted suicide. It won’t be long for the peanut farmer.

Three Mile Island was an overhyped nothing burger. But Carter DID take significant radiation during the shutdown of the partial meltdown of the
NRX reactor in Canada in 1952 and its subsequent dismantling. Carter lead the US contingent helping Canada with that emergency and deserves a LOT of credit for a good resolution of a, shouldn't be, forgotten disaster. Another point on which he deserves significant credit, but which few remember, is his efforts to fight several tropical diseases, which the west had mostly ignored previously. He is close to eradicating Dracunculsis ('Guinea Worm disease.) There were 3 million human cases worldwide when he started, last year there were 13. There was a setback when 10 years ago the worms jumped to non-human species, but Carter Center has cut the non-human cases 2/3 over the past 3 - 4 years, down to 685 last year. I'd hoped he might last long enough to see the worms extinct, but this news makes that seem unlikely. Carter Center has also handed out loads of Ivermectin, for its approved human targets: Lymphatic Filariasis and Onchocerciasis, sparing millions from both. Like Hoover, Carter was a lousy President, but was a great humanitarian outside of his political career.

Yes, Carter is a great humanitarian. He is also a humble and decent Christian man. He has taught Bible classes at his Sunday School for decades.
Always an officer and a gentleman.
I have always admired him in his personal life.
May his last days or weeks be spent in peace and comfort, with his beloved Rosalyn at his side.
