Text of the page (random words):
rovoked by the august 2017 anti semitic demonstrators and to president trump s assessment that there were very fine people on both sides charlottesville was a turning point for me prompting me to post on facebook a photo of mike pence alongside the presidential seal with a two word commentary i m ready peggy noonan a conservative and former speechwriter for ronald reagan 1911 2004 is still a republican though she has distanced herself from president trump in a july 30 wall street journal opinion column burn the republican party down she wrote when the trump experience is over the republican party will have to be rebuilt it will have to begin with tens of millions of voters who previously supported mr trump it will have to decide where it stands its reason for being it won t be enough to repeat old mantras or formulations it s 2020 we re a different country i agree with noonan that the democratic party needs the republican party needs to restrain its excesses and repair what it does that proves injurious the republicans need the democrats too for the same reasons history of bipartisanship from the bipartisan policy center 2 comments faith quotes july 30 2020 july 30 2020 keep the faith jon meacham on msnbc about the remembrance of john lewis at the u s capitol the secular and the sacred intersect in the rotunda lewis was willing to die to suffer for that vision in the beatitudes of jesus he heard the gospel as a young child what we will see is the burial of a war hero not every war hero faces fire abroad he faced fire in the states what we see there in that rotunda where the sculpted icons of eisenhower lincoln grant jefferson washington king and reagan are is a man who served the nation and the cause of liberty non violently consistently and with exemplary virtue and the reason it s so powerful is that we knew him this is not some stained glass figure in a july 27 opinion piece for the washington post meacham noted two lewis quotes from the service in the rotunda when you see something that is not right not fair not just you have to stand up speak up speak out and find a way to get in the way and get in trouble good trouble necessary trouble there may be some setbacks some delays some disappointment but you must never ever give up or give in you must keep the faith one of 130 photographs in the july 26 montgomery advertiser article by adam tamburin a nation john lewis helped unite salutes him on his final journey across selma bridge photo by max gersh advertise r the final remembrance for lewis will be a private service today at 11 am edt at the ebenezer baptist church in atlanta addendum today the new york times published a letter to young americans that lewis recently wrote for publication on this day the title page reads together you can redeem the soul of our nation and though i am gone i urge you to answer the highest calling of your heart and stand up for what you truly believe 1 comment faith july 29 2020 july 28 2020 the wisdom that matters cynthia bourgeault asks what is the wisdom that matters now she says everything that s good abiding worthy and generative about a human being arises on the other side of our fear of death she cites the old monks in the desert who found freedom from the fear of death covid 19 has now taken over 150 000 lives in the u s alone in two brief videos by the center for action and contemplation about wisdom in times of crisis bourgeault shares her experience of moving beyond the fear of death the gateway to freedom and death is the fullness of being i had asthma in my childhood and youth i have vivid memories of being unable to breathe so the presence of a virus that attacks the lungs has made me more aware of my vulnerability and mortality bourgeault again to the extent that we live our life from the heart now with utter integrity death proves to be no interruption to identity who we are is held in the love of god from before time and as we lean into that now in life and taste it we ll be prepared to really see death as the fullness of being and not as the lessening of it john lewis embodied this kind of fearlessness more about him tomorrow how fear and anger change our perception of coronavirus risk by sujata gupta science news may 14 2020 leave a comment economy july 28 2020 july 27 2020 alphabetical order alphabet the parent company of google announced yesterday that it was extending its work from home option until july 2021 for 200 000 full time and contract employees the wall street journal was the first to report the story saying ceo sundar pichai was swayed in part by sympathy for employees with families to plan for uncertain school years that may involve at home instruction the absence of federal leadership about how to reopen schools has created inconsistency and in some places chaos so alphabet took action this will encourage other corporations to do likewise where possible the journal article cited a statement by facebook ceo mark zuckerberg that he expects half the company to work from home in the next decade this is another example of covid 19 hastening a trend already in place alphabet s decision confirms that the virus will be with us for awhile the 2020 21 school year will be difficult and challenging for everyone the big question can we open classrooms safely before we flatten the curve editorial trump has zero understanding of what it will take to safely reopen u s schools by the los angeles times editorial board july 8 2020 1 comment quotes july 27 2020 july 26 2020 how you look at it one of my happy memories is sitting with my dad on the steps from the driveway into our kitchen in the cool of the day it was a good place to reflect on the unfolding drama of the universe my dad would occasionally respond to an event a comment or a situation by saying it depends on how you look at it he sought to understand by trying to look at things from the perspective of the other guy our world yearns for certainty and there are times i would like a stronger dose of that myself but there s also grace in uncertainty in withholding judgment of allowing some things to be held in abeyance in his daily meditation for july 12 richard rohr encouraged a strong tolerance for ambiguity an ability to allow forgive and contain a certain degree of anxiety and a willingness to not know and not even need to know this is how we allow and encounter mystery from clarence caldwell leave a comment humor sports july 26 2020 july 26 2020 the first pitch when i was learning to talk my parents asked who s the best baseball player in the world i would reply pee wee reese later from 1960 1965 i was a devoted saturday viewer of the cbs game of the week called by reese 1918 1999 and dizzy dean 1910 1974 i became a braves fan when they were in milwaukee i still remember their 1957 and 1958 world series against the yankees in recent years the only games i ve watched on tv have been the world series so baseball isn t a pastime for me but rather something that s in my past time the short 2020 season has begun dr anthony fauci 79 threw out the first pitch at the nationals yankees game on thursday proving that basketball is his first sport it was widely noted that dr fauci a good sport doesn t want anybody to catch anything and that he managed to flatten the curve until fans can safely return to the stands here s a video to remember what a full stadium of cheering fans feels like vin scully s call of kirk gibson s pinch hit appearance against dennis eckersley in the 1988 world series as well as their conversation about it 30 years later pee wee reese was easier for a toddler but a more accurate answer to my parents circa 1952 question was jackie robinson 1919 1972 photo from the library of congress by popular demand jackie robinson and other baseball highlights 1860s 1960s leave a comment leadership july 25 2020 july 24 2020 the next four years four years ago i told my wife that hillary clinton should give donald trump a microphone buy him air time and let him cook his own goose i was wrong to me he has always seemed unhappy and often angry not an attractive disposition i underestimated how many people resonate with him i believe one reason he has maintained a loyal base is because many of them also are unhappy and angry tex sample helped me see this in working class rage a field guide to white anger and pain mr trump s base has been unfazed as a parade of his former generals cabinet officials staff persons business associates military and civil servants of all ranks and now a family member has catalogued a consistent pattern of destructive attitudes and behaviors i m pondering two scenarios 1 what the country might look like after four more years of mr trump and 2 what the country might look like with him as an unhappy and angry former president who continues to cultivate a sizable unhappy and angry political base neither scenario is rosy either way a suggested companion for the journey is the prophet jeremiah who was active from around 626 bce into at least the early years of the babylonian exile which began in 586 bce buckle up from donald trump s authoritarianism a new political correctness by former birmingham news writer wallace b henley in the christian post march 8 2016 leave a comment leadership july 24 2020 july 24 2020 a third of the population anne applebaum writer for the atlantic and author of the twilight of democracy turns 56 tomorrow for 32 years she has divided time between her native america and poland home to her husband a former polish official who like her is politically center right young applebaum was inspired by ronald reagan s optimism an article in the atlantic adapted from her book tells how she parted ways with some of her reagan era friends and acquaintances such as laura ingraham her book describes a painfully similar parting with some former friends and acquaintances in europe whose abandonment of democratic ideals prompted the book s sub title the seductive lure of authoritarianism she describes a challenge for leaders with democratic ideals today karen stenner has argued that about a third of the population in any country has what she calls an authoritarian predisposition one that favors homogeneity and order authoritarianism appeals simply to people who cannot tolerate complexity there is nothing intrinsically left wing or right wing about this instinct at all it is anti pluralist it is suspicious of people with different ideas it is a frame of mind not a set of ideas authoritarianism the terrifying trait that trump triggers tom jacobs pacific standard march 26 2018 4 comments leadership july 23 2020 july 22 2020 personal power the import of the bethlehem manger is described in the prologue of john theologians condensed it to one word incarnation the practical meaning you have more available power than you know more simply you can make a difference the mystery of leadership the less self serving and more self giving you are the more useful you will be on planet earth saikrishna prakash in the living presidency wrote about the silent power of one delegate to the 1787 constitutional convention one cannot minimize the role that george washington played in the creation of the executive most everyone knew that if there was going to be but one chief executive washington would be that man his standing was unparalleled washington was seen as selfless and patriotic the polar opposite of someone obsessed with amassing power fame and wealth thus the widespread healthy suspicion that politicians were unprincipled venal and power hungry was somewhat held in check this was not a constitution built to curb a george iii a richard nixon or a chairman mao it was built to empower the virtuous selfless and thoughtful george washington when facts change a great leader changes her mind angela merkel may have saved the e u can the u s overcome our petty partisan differences for the common good leave a comment leadership july 22 2020 july 21 2020 leadership get tough show compassion advisers disagree i am your president of law and order sounds like good news to many as one who hears an echo of george wallace and richard nixon not so much but the debate is far older than this presidential election or the election of 1968 it s at least as old as the debate in king rehoboam s white house where his older advisers pressed for a kinder and gentler king of judah to replace the deceased king solomon his younger advisers urged him to be tough he chose the law and order path which led to division the northern tribes seceded from the kingdom of judah to form a new kingdom of israel leadership is never easy a challenge president trump underestimated we are 103 days away from the 2020 election i invite you to join me in a season of self reflection about leadership with some occasional posts about the importance and difficulty of leadership how can each of us be a better leader or follower as the situation requires in 2017 tom nichols wrote the death of expertise the campaign against established knowledge and why it matters a new york times review said it describes how ignorance became a virtue good leadership involves several virtues including wisdom solomon at his best discernment rehoboam flunked his first test servanthood robert greenleaf
