Catiline became corrupt because he had been allowed to get away with terrible crimes because of his position. This is very similar to the corruption we see with professional athletes and politicians of our current era. As leaders of the future, we must be aware of our actions so that we do not end up like Manlius and Catiline, paying for our misdeeds with our very lives.

Its a terrible thing the officer died and the female air force vet shot to death. But this was all set in motion after a year of other riots were given tacit approval by the party which now finds them to be sedition.
The LEFT should be up on charges. Or the legislator confronted within inches of his face by other hysterical protesters at that same time? When did such threatening behavior become OK here?? We have a lot to lose here in terms of our constitutional rights if people remain silent in the face of this level of political partisanship and corruption. Contact the companies who are financially cutting off GOP legislators from donations or business dealings and tell them you will no longer patronize their businesses.
If you are able and own their stock, sell it. And if indeed your school is teaching your children partisan politics or to hate their country, you MUST speak out immediately to stop it.
Call the teacher AND the school board. Involve the other parents. I find it incomprehensible that Americans can vote for people of this ilk. May I offer another candidate for worst days?

OK, enough; back to praying for all of us. He also accomplished what no other president had been able to do: the Abraham accords which established peace between Israel, the United Arab Emirates and other Islamic states. Yes, he was rough around the edges, but many if not most of his policies were innovative and positive — just ask the Little Sisters of the Poor, whom Biden has now said he will prosecute anew.
