BIG TOLKIEN FANS HERE!

We watched the film again last night and so when this ended up in the Saturday email, just had to share:

This quietly powerful statement comes from “The Fellowship of the Ring,” spoken by Gandalf as he reassures the elf Erestor during a moment of fear and uncertainty. J.R.R. Tolkien, a veteran of World War I and a devout Catholic, wove the upheavals of the 20th century and his personal experiences with loss, endurance, and faith into stories that grapple with the tension between darkness and courage. This line reflects his belief that even in the bleakest moments, we can’t claim to know how things will end. For Tolkien, despair is not just sadness, but a kind of arrogance — the false certainty that we can predict the future and know all hope is gone. His words here gently push back against that instinct, reminding us that as long as the future remains unwritten, there's still plenty of room for resilience and hope.

WON'T YOU DONATE TODAY TO THE "ANTHONY S. FAUCI M.D. LEGAL FUND"

Excerpted---read the entire article at the link below.  Fauci's lawyers launch legal defense fund as federal, state investigations mount against him

Rand Paul called on the Department of Justice to prosecute Fauci after he repeatedly invoked the Fifth Amendment at a hearing

Lawyers representing Dr. Anthony Fauci have created a legal defense fund for the infectious disease expert as investigations against him continue to mount......

"The Anthony S. Fauci M.D. Legal Defense Fund was established to help cover the legal representation and associated administrative costs for Dr. Fauci," the defense fund’s website says.  "Your contributions directly support these defense efforts and ensure comprehensive legal support during ongoing inquiries and proceedings."

Fauci retired in 2022 after leading the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases for nearly 40 years.,,,During his time navigating the country through the pandemic, he was a proponent of wearing masks, social distancing, vaccines and lockdown measures.....Former President Joe Biden issued Fauci a preemptive pardon before he left office.

"Fauci is facing an unprecedented legal ​barrage for a retired civil servant, and he deserves a robust defense against these unfounded and frivolous actions," David Schertler, a lawyer for Fauci, told Reuters...."Dr. Fauci has not ​done anything wrong, and we are prepared to fight back against this shameful harassment of an honorable man who dedicated his career to saving lives."

His lawyers added that any funds remaining after all of his investigations conclude will be donated to charity.

Prior to his retirement, Fauci was the highest-paid federal employee, making nearly $500,000 each year, Fox News Digital previously reported. In retirement, Fauci collects a federal pension that rivals a presidential salary, OpenTheBooks CEO Adam Andrzejewski estimated.
