News Weakly - 9/6/2025

Times Have Changed
Once again, "Emperor Trump" is being opposed by the justice system (puny emperor). A federal judge ruled his deployment of National Guard troops in Los Angeles was a violation of federal law. The argument was that it was "unprecedented" and potentially unconstitutional. It wasn't unprecedented. In 1965 President Johnson deployed troops in Alabama without the consent of the governor. He wasn't taken to court. So, clearly, this is an anti-Trump thing, not a legal issue.

No Kings
The "No Kings" crowd got another slap in the face when a federal judge voided Trump's freeze of $2.2 billion in funding for Harvard. This silly Judicial Branch keeps forgetting that Trump is an emperor and keeps bringing about ... checks and balances ... you know, like the system is supposed to work.

Unclear on the Concept
A thousand employees at the Department of Health and Human Services have demanded that their boss resign. Like that would happen in a corporation or any other business? They're angry because Secretary Kennedy is violating the Constitution. Now that's a new one. Where does "do medicine our way" come up in the Constitution?

Keep Playing the Trump Card
Some time ago, Trump asked to have the Epstein files released and was denied. Representative Massie is petitioning the same. Trump referred to the issue as a hoax. (I suspect "the issue" that is "a hoax" is not the Epstein crimes, but the constant efforts to drag the president into it.) I am not a "Trump guy," but this whole thing stinks. The Democrats and their Justice Departments have had this stuff for decades. They never trotted it out to torpedo Trump. The Justice Department (Republican and Democrat-led) never dragged Trump into it. Trump asked for the release of ... documentation of his guilt? Look, I know he's not a sexually moral guy, but when did we become the nation that believes in "guilty as soon as we feel like he is" without examining ... you know ... facts or evidence? It's painful and embarrassing to watch. (I also think the apparent run on "anti-Trump" news is a clear indicator of TDS -- Trump Derangement Syndrome -- as the Left media ramps up to destroy their most hated man and not for "justice.")

Unloving
Nine-year-old Renesmay Eutsey was found dead after being reported missing. They're charging her adoptive mother. Her adoptive mother ... someone who chose to adopt her. Also another adult woman. In Paul's second letter to Timothy, he warns that people will become evil in the last days (2 Tim 3:1-9). In that list of ways, he included "unloving" (2 Tim 3:3). The word is specifically "without natural affection" ... lacking familial affection. When a mother who adopts a child kills the child, it simply points to Paul's "last days" ... and breaks my heart.

I just had to snicker. The Bee has a story about Trump inviting doubting Democrats to touch the hole in his ear, linking the Bee's satirical claim that Trump claimed to have "done more for Christianity than Jesus," the current ongoing furor that the assassination attempt was a hoax, and, of course, Jesus and Thomas after the Resurrection. Perhaps sacrilegious, but ... I get it. On a completely different tangent, a celebrity mom is delighted to announce that her unborn baby is transexual ... after having three abortions. (Because, as we all know, "unborn" and "baby" is a non sequitur.) (Oh ... wait ... so is that "trans before birth" idea.) Finally, with the news that Greta Thunberg is going to Gaza (actual story), Hamas terrorists are distancing themselves from her. (She claims she's not an anti-Semite, but applauded a soccer team that urged the destruction of Israel. It's okay, Greta. We believe you. (wink).)

Must be true; I read it on the internet.

Since when has it been illegal for the federal government to use troops to defend federal employees and property? The troops weren't out conducting ICE raids, they were only there to defend, not enforce.

The Republican party has spent so long refusing to do things lest the Democrats use it against us, while the Democrats have not had the same reluctance. Now, Trump is doing what Democrats have been doing for years without "outrage" about overstepping authority. So I agree, it's not about him exercising authority, they just don't like what he's doing.

Unclear On The Concept
I've heard it equated to atheists appealing to the Bible to "refute" Christians. They don't actually believe it in or understand it, but know that you do, so they'll try to use it against you without believing in it or understanding it.

Keep Playing The Trump Card
You see, he's making outward overtures to appease the masses but is secretly telling them not to release the information to protect his friends. At least, that's what they say

Unloving
That is horrible and heartbreaking. But inevitable. Children have gone from a blessing to an accessory. With the advent of IVF combined with homosexual "marriage" combined with legalized abortion, children have become a commodity rather than the Image bearers they are. We've given up the natural loves for self fulfillment, and the children are paying the price.

At least the mother is admitting that trans sexuality is a societal convention rather than a personal reality, and that abortion arguments are dishonest. If you're not a human before birth, you can't be male or female or trans. She exemplifies why both the trans and abortion arguments are not good faith arguments.

I think that the Epstein files are likely to make a lot of prominent people look really bad, but that Trump is unlikely to be one of them. If the files were the smoking gun that the DFL likes to imply, they would have selectively released them years ago. They are a much more potent weapon unreleased than they are released. At least against Trump. They'll likely hold them until the statute of limitations expires.

The Bee article about Trump’s ear was SOOO funny. I know you don’t write those, but still, I’m giving you full credit for bringing those good laughs to our attention every Saturday. (They are a nice contrast to the mostly awful political news of late.)

And yes, the Eutsey story was so sad. Made me think of the Turpin family of CA and the news that "some of the younger Turpin children were placed with caregivers who were later charged with child abuse.” How wicked we humans can be!
