ezs note:  I ran across Rev. Ed Trevors and got a breath of fresh air.  Most of what passes off as 'Christianity' is pure crap.  We may not see every line side to side (he is a [real] Christian, I am a Baha'i), but, geez, this guy is good. I'll do my bit to promote him.

By the way, if you're free on Saturday nights, Ed broadcasts live on most Saturday nights at 7:30 pm (Eastern time).  Look for :

Letter to the editor!

Credit:  https://www.stlucianewsonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/lettertotheeditor.png

ezs note:  I sent this letter to the editor this morning to the Hartford Courant.  I don't know if it will be printed, but I thought I would share it with you.

For over two years now, we have had the misfortune of having Donald Trump as our President.  Early on, Rep. Al Green (D-Texas) put forth a bill of impeachment. Although some thought him rash then, Rep. Green seems sadly prescient today. We have learned about Trump's payment to Stormy Daniels to keep his affairs quiet. We have learned about his lies, both important and maddeningly small.  And, most troubling, we have learned of his cozy (or sycophantic) relationship with Vladimir Putin. Please, Rep. Larson, show some courage (for once) by sending this dangerous dunce packing.  Preferably to prison.
