  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

This is a joke right? Let's check...

Department of government "efficiency" that has 2 bosses....

The acronym is D.O.G.E....

Nope, this is real.

We are living in the Idiocracy.
What's wrong?

Nothing yet, but assigning two bosses to the department focused on efficiency isn't exactly an auspicious start.
Not to mention the massive conflict of interests having a government advisory position who does massive amounts of business with the government and regularly communicates with Putin in violation of the Logan act.

Indeed. I don't have a lot of hope that Elon's definition of "efficiency" isn't going to just be "outsource to the private sector - preferably to a company I own."

I literally laughed this morning with the daily unfolding of appointments. One by one they will find themselves on the Trump heap of the discarded and meaningless.
I can't laugh with this bunch. What a nightmare! and now

Trump picks former Rep. Lee Zeldin to be his EPA administrator​


Putting a fox to protect the henhouse. Deregulate and put profits ahead of the environment. At this tipping point in our environmental crisis we are basically giving up.

Our Father has a bigger plan. Continue the great delusion,let the adversary feed the flesh what it wants. But you are right, I shouldn't laugh I should pray, I know only a remnant will survive and come back to their first love, Jesus Christ of Nazareth, and do the will of the Father. He prophesied this warning many times:

-Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it."

But when you give a feast, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you. For you will be repaid at the resurrection of the just."

"Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have been fighting, that I might not be delivered over to the Jews. But my kingdom is not from the world.”

This will be a thorn in Trump's side. I remember the accusations of Trump's businesses globally and compared to Musk he's a shrimp.

All of it. All of it is the joke.
If you're in charge of a large office, you might need to hire two office managers, maybe even three. I love a good joke, but there's no joke here.
