DAILY PRAYER: Dear God, We pray for that blessed day to arrive when all evil ends and the victory of Jesus Christ breaks through! Amen. Alleluia!

AMERICAN HISTORY: On March 19, 1941, the War Department ordered the creation of the 99th Pursuit Squadron, better known as the Tuskegee Airmen. What began as a reluctant experiment soon became one of the most disciplined and effective fighter programs of World War II.

MIDTERMS: [14:49] – Strong showings by Republican candidates in this week’s special elections is bad news for Dems in November.

PRAYER for OUR NATION: Dear God, Please get The SAVE Act passed! In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

SEPARATION of CHURCH and STATE? After New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s Ramadan decided to proudly celebrate iftar inside city hall, conservatives expressed outrage over a religious ritual being performed on government property.

Our junior senator, Kirsten Gillibrand, huffily described these concerns as “Islamaphobia”, to which Jason Howerton responded, “3 Islamic terror attacks in 2 weeks and Democrats’ biggest concern is ‘Islamophobia.’ The literal definition of toxic empathy.

I think Greg Strange said it best – “There’s no such thing as ‘Islamophobia.’ A phobia, by definition, is an irrational fear, whereas the fear of Islam is as coldly rational as the Second Law of Thermodynamics or the quadratic equation.”

Mamdani’s snarky response to concerns was, “Let there be as much outrage from politicians in Washington when kids go hungry as there is when I break bread with New Yorkers.”

I guess that means he’ll be celebrating seder meals with Jewish New Yorkers this coming April 1 and 2?

TRANS: A Washington trannie who calls himself a “youth advocate” has been arrested and charged with first-degree rape of a child and sexual exploitation of a minor. What I don’t get is how he only got caught because someone reported the internet video to the authorities. The story says the parents both work two jobs and trusted this guy to baby sit. It beggars belief that he penetrated their 6-month-old’s vagina and the parents didn’t notice the damage and realize what he’d done! Please God, protect this girl and her siblings from further harm!

UTAH: In March 2022, Kouri Richards’ husband, Eric, died suddenly. In May 2023, she self-published a book she had written for her children about coping with the loss of a parent. This week, the mother of three was found guilty of having taken out large insurance policies on her husband, then attempting to kill him, then successfully killing him. She was also convicted of two counts of fraudulent insurance claims and forgery. Maybe with all the time she’ll have in prison, she can write a book for her children about coping with a parent being a murderer.

WASHINGTON: Last November, a bunch of Seattle baristas organized themselves into a barristas’ union and went on strike, demanding better pay and working conditions. When they ran out of money and decided they wanted to come back to work, they found out Starbucks was closing their store and was not offering any of them the opportunity to transfer to another store.

Maybe they can organize themselves into a baristas’ collective and operate their own shop. I mean … the location is available and already set up for coffee, right? And they obviously think they know better than Starbucks how to run a business. It would be sweet revenge if they succeeded in making a go of it, while providing better pay and working conditions than Starbucks did. And, if they can’t because, you know, running a business is hard, maybe they would grow up and learn some important life lessons.

WOLF in SHEEP’S CLOTHING: CLICK https://x.com/Protestia/status/2034213528551178740 [2:21] to hear an Episcopal pastor claim that Jesus was flirting with the Samaritan woman at the well, because “living water” was supposedly “a first century euphemism for semen.”

I asked Grok, “Is there any evidence that ‘living water’ was a ‘first century euphemism for semen’?

Grok replied, “No, there is no credible historical, linguistic, or scholarly evidence. The claim is a modern fringe interpretation, often tied to sensational sermons, esoteric/New Age teachings, or highly speculative readings of John 4 (the Samaritan woman at the well).”

This jackass minister’s interpretation doesn’t even make sense in context, but I guess that doesn’t matter if your congregation doesn’t bother to read the Bible. I agree with the commenters on the video who said things like, “This guy’s computer needs to be checked for bad things.”

GRAMMY NOTES: 1985: Unplanned, high risk pregnancy makes my chronic illness progress from manageable to disabling. 2026: The life I gave and raised is now a strong, intelligent, and very funny woman, artist, USMC war veteran with 3 college degrees, an incredible husband, & 4 precious sons.
