It is not my intent to disrespect anyone, but context and truth are key. Jesus was not rejected because of His mission; He was rejected in spite of it. The spiritual message He brought transcended cultural divisions—the Pharisees were overly focused on cleanliness, missing the deeper, eternal truth He was revealing. Jesus did not come to free the Jews from Roman oppression, but to lead all people to salvation through spiritual renewal and reconciliation with God. They could not accept His claim of divinity, and in their blindness to His miracles and teachings, they conspired to have Him handed over to the Romans. Pilate, despite his role in the crucifixion, knew deep down that Jesus was innocent. However, their actions were part of God's will, because Jesus had come to show the world that He and the Father are one. His death was the ultimate sacrifice, the fulfillment of a greater divine purpose. It's essential we not cast blame on all Jews for the actions of the few who conspired against Him. Instead, we should look inward, reflecting upon how we accept Christ and His teachings into our hearts. Focusing on the Romans misses the point of Jesus' purpose and the divine plan. We are called to understand His message of forgiveness, love, and redemption, and to acknowledge the depth of His grace. Let’s challenge ourselves to seek the truth that Christ came to reveal, recognizing the complex historical context, but never losing sight of His eternal message.

To be clear, what the @DOGE team and @USTreasury have jointly agreed makes sense is the following: - Require that all outgoing government payments have a payment categorization code, which is necessary in order to pass financial audits. This is frequently left blank, making audits almost impossible. - All payments must also include a rationale for the payment in the comment field, which is currently left blank. Importantly, we are not yet applying ANY judgment to this rationale, but simply requiring that SOME attempt be made to explain the payment more than NOTHING! - The DO-NOT-PAY list of entities known to be fraudulent or people who are dead or are probable fronts for terrorist organizations or do not match Congressional appropriations must actually be implemented and not ignored. Also, it can currently take up to a year to get on this list, which is far too long. This list should be updated at least weekly, if not daily. The above super obvious and necessary changes are being implemented by existing, long-time career government employees, not anyone from @DOGE. It is ridiculous that these changes didn’t exist already! Yesterday, I was told that there are currently over $100B/year of entitlements payments to individuals with no SSN or even a temporary ID number. If accurate, this is extremely suspicious. When I asked if anyone at Treasury had a rough guess for what percentage of that number is unequivocal and obvious fraud, the consensus in the room was about half, so $50B/year or $1B/week!! This is utterly insane and must be addressed immediately.
