To be fair, that's the NIV version of the Bible, which is very much not the King James Version that many evangelicals assert was written by God. Translated by God? Something like that. Personally I rather like NIV translation, it attempts to use modern English and not so interested in preserving the original meter of the verse.
Meanwhile, USA placed on official List of Shithole Countries Okay that's not quite the article's title but it's close enough.
The more we're finding out about what happened two days ago, the more clear it was that it was an actual coup d'etat attempt than it was a bunch of random protesters who got lucky. Two minutes later on the evacuation, and we would have had Congressmen being held hostage or worse. There were specific targets, quickly located by the protesters, almost as if it had been planned in advance by someone with inside knowledge of the Capitol. The Maryland National Guard was ready to deploy two hours before it was given legal authority to do so. And even then, the Secretary of Defense never contacted Governor Hogan; instead the Secretary of the Army called and asked where the troops were, which he took to be a good enough authority to deploy. I would not be surprised if the Army Secretary did it on his on initiative, nor would I be surprised if he finds himself out of a job next week.
