Hardship is bringing him close to God, is it is apt to do. This is not because God likes suffering but because God grants strength to those who suffer. Trivial things become less important. Godspeed to Michael.
The convicts so far were victims of the conspiracy. The instigators are about to get their just deserts. Ironically, Trump will probably only get house arrest because no prison wants or can handle him. Those who planned this for him, however, will get serious prison time. The odd thing is that this was all about him trying to use the presidency to stay out of jail. Helping someone else cover up their relationship with Russia is both pathetic and worthy of punishment.
Authoritarianism is the main feature of capitalism. It is only liberty for the few. His kids are wannabe authoritarians who don't have the DNA or training to think like free people or act with courage.
J.D. is correct on how some Catholics put loyalty to the group (The Faith) over real faith in God. It is a feature of authoritarianism. Catholic authoritarianism is good training for MAGA membership. Mention abortion and some Catholics will follow you anywhere - even when it is not your issue (Trump is most likely personally pro-abortion - not just pro-choice).
Cutting support (or raising tuition) for community college students is often done to keep up with Pell Grant levels. It is a dance that public schools have to do. Bernie is right that tuition should simply be free up to Sophomore year in college. Build Back Better was going to implement this goal, but Joe Manchin would not let him.
My mother was a mezzo-soprano and was world class. She reserved her talents for her children and the Church. She sang until the end. One Monday, she was singing in the Resurrection Choir. The next, they were singing to her. There are many hidden angels like her.
