In the pre-interweb’s era, it was thought that there was no such thing as bad press. But in the era of suicide trolls, I’m not so sure about that anymore.
In any case, full disclosure - part of my 12-step program has me praying for these bastards nightly. If the fascists could be relieved of what ails them, the world would be a much safer place. I know there’s no cure for psychopathy - some people are simply natural born sociopaths - but even they could probably use a hug.
My point is, some people have a soul sickness that can be cured if they seek redemption. Where I come from, we call it bottoming out. When people are at their lowest point, they sometimes surrender and ask for help.
I have been reading the emails Traitor Mike Flynn’s brother sends to my podcast partner Jim Stewartson. I have read into them and see a man who is truly troubled, and every night I pray for him to find peace. If he’s ever ready, I have a book for him he might find helpful.
In any case, he publicly called for my arrest today.
So tonight, just like every night, I will pray for Joe Flynn.
Maybe if any of you have a spiritual program, you can join me in sending him light.
