Emails on Tuesdays & Thursdays!
What a lovely morning! You’ve all been poisoned. Poisoned by my heart-shaped arrows. For I have stolen Cupid’s arrow and struck you with love—love for my email newsletter!
Wait, you already love my emails? In that case, I should return Cupid’s arrow before I am found to have broken the eighth commandment.
Let’s catch up with some news.
Elon is pissed
Immigration Impeachment
Plant in the Bible
Elon is Pissed
Elon Musk moved SpaceX from Delaware to Texas.
Why?
A Delaware court voided his $56 billion Tesla pay package.
Ouch! That's a huge blocker.
Musk retaliated by advising against incorporating in Delaware.
He's polling about Tesla moving too.
His voice is powerful. I'm sure Delaware is regretting their decision already!
Exactly. Delaware might face economic challenges if companies leave.
It's a reminder that businesses have great power.
Musk used X, formerly Twitter, to rally support for the move.
He gained so much social power after acquiring Twitter.
Maybe the $44 billion he spent on acquiring it was worth it after all!
True. But he shouldn't let it get to his head.
What do you mean?
Proverbs 16:9 says, "The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps"
While individuals can make plans, ultimately, it's God's will that prevails.
A divine perspective on business decisions.
Indeed. It teaches us humility and reliance on God's sovereignty.
Immigration Impeachment
Alejandro Mayorkas
The House impeached Secretary Mayorkas over the border mess.
Whoa, really? On what grounds?
They say he defied laws, leading millions to enter the U.S. illegally. A true mess for communities.
Ouch. I assume there's a huge impact on national security?
Right on. Security's compromised, and small towns are bearing the brunt.
Over 900K illegal entries reported this fiscal year ALONE.
What's the president saying about all this?
Biden’s slamming it as baseless, political theatre.
Will the Senate actually remove him?
Doubtful. They need a supermajority.
So what's the point of impeachment then?
To hold officials accountable. Also, affects public opinion.
Public opinion?
Yeah, it puts pressure on Democrats, especially in swing states.
Reflecting on this, it reminds me...
Of what?
That justice and mercy aren't opposites. We need wise policies that honor both principles.
Tough balance to achieve but important.
True. Do justice, love kindness, and walk humbly with your God. Micah 6:8.
Trivia time! Think you know the Bible?

Let’s wrap up with a quote from C. S. Lewis:
❝
I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.
