What I mean when I say I am praying for someone else is just that I have been telling God about the intense concern I have about them and the love, and letting that love feel connected to God and other people's love for them

An enduring, defining memory I have of my Gram is her pulling a perfectly ripe red tomato off the vine in her garden as she was working in it, biting into it like an apple, her face turned up to the sun in pure gratitude and joy, red juice dripping off of her chin.

No, Sidney Powell, hon, listen. You actually are toxic. You did this to yourself. You chose to be one of the traitors. People don't like their government getting taken out by thugs plotting a coup. Consequences. Rats.
Sidney Powell says she has been persecuted for representing Trump: “The lawfare has just been atrocious. Over 19 people filed grievances against me with the TX Bar. They want to make us toxic in our communities, destroy our reputations, and our ability to make a livelihood.”
