The shooter escaped. No casualties. But here’s what I didn’t do: put down the phone & say a rosary.
I have phone numbers of men in the White House. I’ve traveled with the Secretary of Defense. SEALs I know would come, one call, anywhere. I built a business to survive financial storms. I could liquidate everything and have millions in cash inside a week.
Last night, none of it mattered.
Every father is powerless outside a locked door.
That night broke something open in me.
The Bible teaches God first, family second, nation third. I’ve spent my entire life inverting that order. Family first. Nation second. God last. And the force behind all of it has been love. Love deeper than the Mariana Trench for my children, for for Jesus I keep making wait.
Love is good. Love is rational. Love was the defining characteristic of Christ. Love is what told my son to lead those seventeen kids last night.
But I’m no Jesus.
Too often my love manifests as something darker. Lust. The deadly sin. Lust is pleasure detached from love. Desire unmoored from wisdom.
I lust for the irrational. For battleships. For American manufacturing. For EVERY American to prosper. I lust for the safety of children and grandchildren I haven’t met yet people I already love more than language can carry.
I can be emotional & irrational about making this nation great again.
Last night it took every bone in my body not to call in every favor I possess to land a helicopter full of the hardest men in Florida on that rooftop.
That wasn’t love. That was lust. And lust overrides discipline and clear thinking.
I am a sinner.
Which is why I can’t hate the people destroying this country.
Most of them are just consumed, the way I’m consumed: a deadly sin.
Pride is Mamdani, he wants you to submit to his God.
Greed is Newsom, who’d monetize California’s ashes.
Wrath is Chris Murphy blinded by TDS rage.
Envy is Kamala.
Sloth is Bernie, who found his answer in 1962 and never questioned it.
Many just don’t have the wattage — low-IQ true, or are truly mentally ill.
Some I despise. Warren and Reed want the thing I want to protect most, my daughter, to register for the draft. 
Some I loathe. Buttigieg gutted the U.S. Merchant Marine & smiled.
But hate them? I can’t. They are just sinners like you & I.
The low IQ don’t have the bandwidth to comprehend the hundred million dead that Marx’s ideas produced. You can’t hate someone for what they’re not equipped to understand.
And the sinners? Hating them would be hating myself. I know what it feels like to mistake sin for virtue.
But I cannot hate the sick, the dumb & the sinful.
One sin comes close. Gluttony.
That is Eileen Gu. She isn’t striving because of ambition. She already has youth, money, world records & fame. 
But, like Jane Fonda before her, she wants MORE.
But that alone doesn’t make me hate.
The dangerous ones are different.
Smart. Wealthy. Sane. Calculated. Who know exactly what they’re doing. Who understand the death cult that is Communism.
She is all those which makes comes close to hate. 
I don’t hate anyone but I DO hate Eileen Gu. 
Why because she has the unholy trinity.
A glutton.
Wildly intelligent & rational.
AND Judas. A traitor.
An American who wraps herself in the flag of a communist death cult. 
FU Gu
“That’s your big Ash Wednesday takeaway John? Hating a minor celebrity?”
Yep. Now go pray for her.
