And this, my friends, is why Missouri and American politics are in the state they are right now. Ms. Lueck’s instinct to bring religion into a conversation about No Kings is, of course, ridiculous and ill informed, but it is also not isolated to her.
To the editor:
Once again, there were those that proclaimed that they have no king.
Well, I would like to share my king with all of you. His promise is sure. His goodness is limitless. His grace is sufficient. His reign is righteous. His mercy is everlasting. His yoke is easy and his burden is light. He guards and he guides. He heals the sick. He forgives the sinner, and he does so much more. He is the king of kings. His name is Jesus.

A political system rooted in religion is bound to ultimately fail as history has shown us time and time again. And let’s be honest with ourselves. A government based on the many Christian religions is no better and no more righteous than a government based on Judaism or Islam. They just use different words and use different rules to control people.
It is well past time that we make our American government religion-agnostic like it was intended. No more “In god we trust” on our money and in our government buildings. No more “under god” in our Pledge. No more “god bless America” at the end of every speech. It is time to recognize how irrelevant and, in some cases, offensive these words are to a large portion of our citizens. We can do and be better.

I think it is certainly fair to question the president and Tom Homan about a potential deployment of ICE agents at our nation’s airports. Clearly, there is a reason most of the country does not trust the agency.
Before any of them walk into an airport on duty, we should know exactly what they will be doing in their official capacity, we should have the more than fair expectation that not one of them will be hiding behind a mask, and every agent should know the exact procedure to hand off tasks and actions to appropriately trained TSA and CBP officers who are actually trained to be working at our ports of entry and dealing with travelers and the stresses that come in those scenarios.

If you had any remaining doubts that Trump considers ICE to be his personal intimidation force, this should clarify things for you. #Trump #ICE

This seems like an incredibly important data point for every leader around the globe to consider when interacting with Iran. This is especially true for those leaders that wrongfully feel they have the right to start unprovoked wars.

Nikki McCann Ramirez wrote an excellent article in Rolling Stone about how we Americans, through our elected government, could be spending our collective budget on positive changes for citizens and humanity instead of bombing and killing Iranians.
Surely, we all can agree that the following list of alternatives would have wide support:
- Health Care
- Child Care
- Medical Debt
- Foreign Aid
- Food Assistance
- Public Programming
- Preschool Development
- Aid for the Disabled
These are all things that help real people and can have lasting, positive impacts on our collective lives on this planet. We are well overdue on changing the way we think as Americans about how best to have impact, and it all starts by actually caring about each other and electing the right leaders.

This ruling is a massive win for the citizens of the United States and for the over 360 million people worldwide that rely on Voice of America for information especially in countries where real, factual information is not otherwise accessible.

As a father, I feel like I can say this with a certain level of authority at this point in my life:
The President of the United States is experiencing what some might call a temper tantrum.
Trump says he will raise US global tariff rate from 10% to 15%

Just watched the PBS News Hour interview with Senator Johnson of Wisconsin.
All I can say is wow. Senator Johnson’s comments on ICE are completely tone deaf and delusional. Wisconsin deserves better representation and leadership.
