A Profane Government

So, like…I cuss. It’s true. And I cuss a lot. Some people find this behavior unbecoming of a follow of Jesus much less an ordained clergy type person. And I have a nine year old who needs no encouragement to try on profanity (If anything has slowed my usual rate of cussification, it’s that.). But I cuss and I like it. I find profanity to be most glorious when one must express oneself.

Given the political machinations of the current administration, I’m thinking I need to cuss more.

Who the fuck does this guy actually think he is?

I’m not a lawyer. I know little about the legalities of what’s happening. I studied US Government twice in High School because reasons, once in 9th grade and again in 12th. I am no expert. With as little as I know, even I can tell you that these times are fucked up. Bigly.

The balance of goddam powers is being tested. The Power of the Purse belongs to Congress, not the Executive Office. We’ll see if this particular Congress of Fuckritude and Bigotry can muster the courage to protect their own powers from L’Orange.

I am trying not to slip into hate.

I am trying to love my enemies, my adversaries.

But this dismantling of democracy is some bullshit. I just wanna cuss.

I voted for Harris. No surprise there. What else can I do? Who do I need to write? Who can I encourage? Who can I excoriate? Are they the same person? Who do I tell to fuck off?

Our government has become profane. It is a grift of the highest order. L’Orange will pocket taxpayer money again and again and call it his privilege. He will call it his right as the victor. If he lives long enough, he will move to someplace tropical and live there for the remainder of his days. Asshole.

Christians who are called to serve the “least of these” will continue to rise up in support of his evil policies. Again. And again. They will call it providence. They will look to the Rapture (theological malpractice of the highest order). I will just scream “Fuck!” a lot and hope that those who can effectively stave off this insanity will have the courage to do so.

Jesus help us. Give us courage for the facing of these days.

Fuck!
