I could almost dance with joy with the destruction of the fake food industry🎉🎉. And I have to agree 100% with Jeff. I don’t need to see Trump‘s post. I hope he deletes it. There is only one savior and that is Jesus Christ the son of God. And I hope Eric gets kicked out of Congress.🙏🏻 keep praying for our nation and our leaders for they are fickle humans just like us.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I agree 100%. My only knock on Trump is that he is so thin skinned when it comes to people who ridicule him. He doesn't understand that those are the people who don't matter to him anyway. Lions do not concern themselves with the opinions of sheep.

Clem, are you asking about “contains bioengineered ingredients “ or about “natural flavor”? I’ve seen both on many many products. Start reading the back of labels on the foods you purchase and you will see them too.

Truth Seeker's avatar

Todays C&C had little humor or use of high stakes vocabulary.

It most definitely rained biological and nutritional illiteracy culminating with

inaccurate assessments.

Not necessary to provide a tuturial on the prebiotic, or gut flora benefits of fiber

in plant based nutrition. Dis-ease avoidance, ethical considerations, environmental

concerns etc. That course was dated 35 years ago.

The "fake meat" burgers are garbage but not for the reasons mentioned.

Glyphosate (Jeff thought it a pesticide not long ago) is in any and all non organic

grains. It causes malignancy but also chronic degenerative dis-ease.

The grains are mostly animal fodder for those that choose "real" meat,

an euphemism for dead animal eating.

Suggesting the AI image is blasphemy is also, an inaccurate assessment.

The Pape is the head of the largest phoney Christian church.

(was raised in that darkness) He also runs a child trafficing racket from his fortified fortress, wears red slippers to mock, while fools engage in meaningless rituals. Drink the blood, eat the body, "con" fession etc etc.

Notre Dame university filled with homosexual "Seminarians" etc etc

However (I do not digress) conflating the image as Jeff has done is sophomoric.

The AI image is designed to suggest the gravity of the current geo political scenario.

DJT is making the best possible decisions, as most readers have been witnessing.

Jesus suggested that "You can do greater things than I". He was not joking.

Someone has to make the toughest decisions. That in no way competes with Jesus.

Last I checked the misunderstood sacrifice happened over 2000 years ago. Nor is it an attempt.

Just a stupid AI image. Get used to them, because otherwise intelligent people

think they are cute.

Matthew 24:32-35 “From the fig tree learn its lesson: as soon as its branch becomes tender and puts out its leaves, you know that summer is near.

So also, when you see all these things, you know that he is near, at the very gates.

Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place.

Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.

KC & the Sunshine's avatar

Now we just need to land on what, exactly, is a generation?

Since Israel became a nation in May of 1948, I say we are def in the generation of the fig tree. Not the “untimely figs”, but the real fig tree.

I tend to see prophecy in scripture as largely Jerusalem-centric (for several reasons I won’t go into) so my thought is— see what makes a generation in Israel. According to Alexa (whom I detest, but it’s a little fight my hubs won, so, there she sits) people in Jerusalem live to be about 82.9 years old. So, 1948 + 82.9 =2,030.9

That puts us in September of 2030, although Israel’s calendar is a bit different from our Gregorian calendar. Either way, it seems pretty imminent.

I say, BRING IT!

Sidebar: The bible mentions Israel as being the ONLY country that “was, then was not, then was again”. It was a country, then was no longer a country, then returned in 1948, to once again be a country, thus checking another box ✔️ of prophetic requirements.

The word of God is so cool.

Israel. Israel. Israel. Israel lost their covenant with God. The one and only covenant now is between Christians and God. The New Testament=the New Covenant. WE are now the New Israel. WE are now Israel. Now the problem is how to unite Christians who fight among themselves.

Cynthia's avatar

God keeps His covenants even when people (including Israel) don't. If He didn't keep His promises to Israel, we Christians have nothing to stand on. God has NOT turned His back on Israel and the Church has not replaced Israel. Jesus lay down His life to fulfill God's plan. No one took his life from Him.

Khallas's avatar

No, Israel is still Israel and we are grafted into Israel. Have you read Roman's 11? I am so tired of this mantra. We did not replace Israel.

Susan Matthiesen's avatar

Yes, we did. Do the Jews love Christ? No. Does Ben Shapiro, the most famous Jew on the planet today, love Christ? No. Their fall is not irreparable, so as never to rise again: but by their offending, salvation (through the liberal mercy of God) is come to the Gentiles, that they, the Jews, may be emulous of the Gentiles, and of their happiness, and so may be converted.

Khallas's avatar

So you have to love Christ in order to avoid being cut off from his covenant? What about "While we were yet sinners"? They did not stop being his covenant people because he opened it up to the Gentiles. Of course they have to come through Christ to be saved like everyone else, but he will display his story through the Jews' story until the end of time.

Mary C Irwin's avatar

I cannot understand why people can’t understand Romans 9-11. Or Isaiah 66:8. If God goes back on His promise to Abraham, and to Moses, then why should He uphold His promises to me? God does not go back on His promises to the Jews. Everything is unfolding exactly according to the prophesies laid out in the Bible, and Israel is right at the center of them. Jesus is going to return on the Mount of Olives and will reign in Jerusalem. If Israel is wiped out, to satisfy all the Jew-haters, then Jesus can’t fulfill that prophesy. Re-think your theology.

The Old Testament covenant belonged to Israel, however since they killed Christ they lost the covenant which God now has with Christianity, hence the New Testament or New Covenant. God still loves the Jews but wills that they convert to His Son and Christianity.

He said that He would give ISRAEL a New Covenant. That HE would write it in THEIR heart.

The early church was made up of JEWS. He has not forsaken them.

He shared the New Covenant with the Gentiles (He would graft a WILD olive branch into the Olive tree (Israel) . And when you brag against Israel, HE also said that he would cut off those branches bragging that that they had replaced Israel and He would graft them (Jews)back in.

When an unfruitful olive branch is cut off an olive tree, it can lay for years beside the tree. Then a tree surgeon can come along, cut a slit in the Olive tree, pick up a dead branch and place it in the slit in its side, wraps it in linen, and 3 says!! later, the branch will once again be a part of that olive tree.

I always thought the slit in Yeshua’s side was just yet another injustice that put it over the top.

But it wasn’t.

It was to graft us into the Tree.

3 days….resurrection

Wrapped in linen.

Wild olive branch…..you and me

And then, suddenly, the original branch is grafted back in.

When you boast AGAINST the original branches, He takes offense. Please read what the Word says about it in Romans

Which Israel?

Imagined in 1948?

Dave aka Geezermann's avatar

I should probably refrain from replying, but Israel, in that verse and all of the Old Testament, refers to all the descendants of Jacob, whose name was also called Israel, whose Grandfather Abraham made the covenant with Yahweh.

In other words, not just the Jews from the Tribe of Judah, but all the other hundreds of millions of Israelites alive today who are not Jews physically speaking. The nation state in the middle east by that name is somewhat misleading, and should be called Judea.

Juju's avatar

I didn’t see the meme the way Jeff did. I saw it as Trump doing God’s work, because God uses man to do His will. So it was a slam to the one man who should be doing God’s work but isn’t, The Pope.

The Pope remained silent about the slaughter of 40,000+ Iranians by their own government. Not even a mild chastisement was given.

The Pope remains silent about the genocide of Christians in Nigeria.

Any condemnation about a righteous war against a terrorist regime is disgusting in my book in light of the Pope’s silence on the other things.

The Pope is clearly anti-Trump and that can only be due to “political interests” feeding him TDS.

Nothing in Trump’s post about the Pope was a lie. But even in Jesus’ day, when Jesus spoke the truth to religious leaders, they crucified him. (No I’m not making Trump equal to Jesus, I’m pointing out that religious leaders and their followers have ALWAYS hated hearing the truth when it exposes their hypocrisy.)

M. Patrick McCrary's avatar

I agree with Juju. If Trump had said he was playing Jesus in that meme, that would have been over the top but I see him dressed as the pope and suggesting that he is doing a better job in carrying out Christ's will than an elected "Spiritual leader" as the Roman Catholic religion considers the papacy.

My stomach has been churning over this. Thank you for your perspective.

I thought the pope was too critical of Trump over immigration and Iran, but also thought- that’s what he should do. Always remind of us of the primacy to care for our neighbor and the atrocities of any war, so therefore should be avoided.

Trump went over the line. Most practicing Catholics are also unhappy about Trumps support of the abortion pill and IVF. This has sent many over the cliff, I’m hanging by my fingernails.

Of course with the Democratic Party heading where it is, there’s still little choice.

Indeed, not sure that Pope Leo has been an equal opportunity chastiser of world evils.

CStone's avatar

Trump isn’t pro-abortion. He got that sent back to the states, where it belonged. There are states in which there are demonic strongholds. Let the states decide how demonic they want to be, let them “sow the wind and reap the whirlwind”.

Let them be judged for their wickedness. And let the states that voted AGAINST murdering babies NOT have to be judged for that.

Trump did that.!

Meg D my viewpoint is that the Pope is a man. A sinner just like the rest of us. He has opinions and I think he needs to be aware that whatever he says that is political will be controversial. I trust in Jesus and that's all that matters. In my opinion I think God has His hand on President Trump. How else can such a flawed man be so reviled, persecuted over so many years yet be successful doing things that are not normal. God's Will be done.

Willing Spirit's avatar

My local Catholic Church is full of ‘practicing Leftists’ who are fully in support of ‘women’s rights, LGBTQ rights…’, etc., etc. But they would never vote for Trump; who is not pro abortion, by the way.

Pope Leo should read his bible. Surely he has one. Psalms 144:1, “Blessed be the Lord my strength, which teaches my hands to WAR, and my fingers to fight.”

Does he not teach that David fought Goliath? And David, a man after God’s own heart, fought plenty of other battles? And hundreds of battles were fought, which the kings sought the Lord’s direction over, and God said, YES, go for it, and God even fought FOR them? He sent hailstones, whirlwinds, and did all kinds of crazy things to win wars for them? In Joshua, God sent so many huge hailstones, God himself killed more of the enemy than Joshua and his soldiers killed.

And is the pope not glad that we (the USA) fought certain wars? Or would he rather we have heeded his call for peace and sat out the Revolutionary War? The CIVIL WAR? Would he proclaim peace and leave the country mired in slavery? And would he proclaim peace and have left the Jews at the hands of the Nazis?

I can’t stand what Trump posted in answer to the pope. I too, long for him to delete it. I wish with all my might that Trump would use Jeff or someone equally wise as a sounding board before saying/posting certain things. I also long for the pope to rethink his position. It’s easy to sit around in your silly costume and say, “Peace, peace…” but honestly, read your bible pope, and then consider where we would be if all popes sat around saying what you’re saying, and if we actually listened and sat wars out like the Amish.

In the discussions of unity the estranged sister churches of the RC and Eastern Orthodox have been having for years now that title has not come up because it wasn't there before the split of 1054. The see of Peter in Rome was there in the first Universal Church of Christ however. For 1000 years, the seat of Peter was considered to be FIRST among equals (equals being the other Bishop seats).

That His Holiness speaks for the Western Church, yes, this is a fact, but even the RC church seems to have adapted a more synodal model than in the past.

Criticize Trump if you must, but also criticize ANY regime that kills ANY of its own people, let alone 40,000.

The bible had God-sanctioned war after war, and plenty of non-God sanctioned wars as well. Plenty of times, when they sought God as the whether or not to fight whoever, God said YES. Or he instructed them to fight without them even asking. Also, whenever they didn’t seek God regarding going to war with ___, they were sorely ROUTED.

But, Pope Peace must’ve been fine had we stayed under the rule of England, or stayed mired in slavery, or left the Nazis to continue torturing jews and doing whatever they wanted.

Karmy's avatar

John 17:17–19 gives us what we might describe as the theology of ordination, as Jesus consecrates the apostles in 17:17 (consecration in Christ the truth), sends them on mission in 17:18, and in 17:19, declares their consecration springs from his own consecration to the Father. Jesus commanding the apostles to “do this in memory of me” during the Last Supper (Luke 22:19) is the Synoptic account of the apostles receiving their priesthood from Jesus. In John 20, Jesus gives his apostles the power to forgive sins after bestowing the Holy Spirit upon them. During Jesus’ last appearance risen from the dead, he commissioned the apostles to minister in his name to the whole world. The Twelve were reconstituted again before the revelation of the Church to the world at Pentecost, and following Pentecost, they continued Jesus’ ministry: what Jesus began to do during his earthly ministry, he continues to do through the apostles after Pentecost.

There are obvious pros and cons to the war with Iran, but there is no doubt energy is the lifeblood of a growing thriving society and economy. Without fulfilling a countries energy demands it will wither and die on the vine. America is now producing more crude oil than Saudi Arabia and Russia combined.

Iran was 80% of the oil bought by China not using the petro dollar, and Venezuela was the other 20%. With this Iranian blockade and Trumps booting of Maduro out of Venezuela, Trump has taken control of both of these major Chinese energy sources. This also puts a chokehold on energy going to most of Europe and beyond. It is pushing hundreds of oil tankers right into the Gulf of AMERICA, making American Oil Companies the greatest of all time.

Never forget, when China and Fauci produced the Covid virus in Wuhan and then sent infected people all over the world, China had just recently bought up millions in Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and then sold it back to us and the world for huge profits. You live by the sword you die by the sword.

If I were to guess China is more likely to pressure Iran to opt for a peace deal than to start threatening the US with hostilities. So say what you will, by Trump doing this he has stuck America’s big boot right up Chinas kiester 😂😂😂. Happy Monday!!

Kathy's avatar

I fear China much more than I have ever feared Russia, but I need to make one small point here. The gain of function research that created that virus was done by Ralph Baric at the university of North Carolina right here in the good old USA. The moratorium on gain of function research(which was little more than a slap on the wrist) is what forced Fauci, through the privately owned Eco Health Alliance, (that could not be F.O.I.A.ed) to bring the operation overseas to the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Our own government has been working on bioweapons for decades. We actually hired former Nazis and Japanese scientists to do some of this work after World War II. Not saying I know whether or not the Chinese released the thing on purpose. Considering things like Event 201, I believe it was released on purpose.

I knew it also. I used to watch Dr. Chris Martenson every day, and he pointed out the furin cleavage site (I think it was called) that proved that the virus was bio-engineered.

Dr. Francis Boyle also pointed it out immediately.

As it turns out, so did multiple other scientists, who told Dr. Fauci, and were then bribed with grants into signing a letter saying otherwise. That should have been a ballyhooed scandal, but not in the corrupt country we live in.

We was conned, but thanks to the internet, we had a chance to know better.

Regardless of what many believe is the reason why President Trump took this Military action against the Iranian Theocracy, I believe his main motivation was to bring an end to the hostilities and terrorist threats in that region.

While it can be said President Trump didn't need to take these steps at this moment in time, he did so in order to bring peace to this region which has had the nation of Iran and the Theocratic thugs of the IRGC raining death and destruction down on one of America's allies, Israel, and threatening "Death to America" for over 50 years.

All the while, this terrorist regime as claimed control of the Strait through which many of America's other long-time allies count on getting their oil and gas supplies from.

President Trump saw this opportunity to have the nations of the world unite behind him in finally beating the bullies of Iranian terror down and having them see their hatred and murderous ways of the past will not longer be tolerated.

President Trump is securing a place for himself in history right now, undertaking a mission no other world leader dared to begin.

Say what you will about his motivations for this event in time, however, one must look at it in a larger perspective, as a time in the history of the world when a single leader saw an opportunity to bring peace to a region dominated by hatred, controlling huge energy resources, while looking down the barrels of their guns.

There are quite a number of "questionable world leaders" hiding behind their condemnation of President Trump and their own cowardice, but there are even more in our own country who are can only utilize hate and division to hide behind their "cowardly lion" political stances.

Be proud that we finally elected a President who isn't just another "cowardly lying" politician.

David A's avatar

I see it a bit differently. The main lock down is twofold, to stop all Iranian oil transport and revenue, and to immediately stop blackmail payments to Iran. The rest may simply be to ensure safe passage. I strongly suspect any past payments to Iran will be allowed to move forward, as there is no means to get Iran to refund. But there will be zero payments going forward. I think Jeff is wrong in saying there is no threat. It is estimated that Iran still has several hundred fast attack boats. The mine threat is real. And the do have some remaining ( up to 25 percent) capacity to fire longer range misses. All of this combines to yet limit how many tankers can safely be moved at a time.

DaveL's avatar

As far as attack boats go, the US has previous experience in picking small boats off, in the interdiction and destruction of the drug runner boats from South America. Doesn't seem like a big problem to me.

Missiles and mines, sure they are there. But the big point is Iran's revenue stream is choked off, forcing them to abstain from sinking tankers in the Straits, I would hope.

Until you stop focusing on the leftard lunatic narrative, you're unable to see the big picture. Both sides are controlled by tbe same puppetmasters. That should be clear by now, by, if nothing else, which politicians are bought-and-paid-for by A I P A C, pHARMa, and every other lobby, including the tech broligarchy - both sides, equally. While the lt vs rt brainwashing paradigm is ingrained into the NPCs as the problem, it's not; because each side has a role to play in furthering the D S globalist agenda-- which they don't want you focused on. "They" want you focused on which buffoon is currently in office, in the limelight, so that when they're gone, the hatred goes with the vacated "politician"; and the cycle repeats. Discernment and objectivity, now more critical than ever, are still clearly absent. If you objectively look at all the things Trump has ushered in (and the money he's taken from the donor class) -- things like Real ID, the Palantir tech broligarchy, The Epstein class, the economy, the endless propaganda, increasing mRNA platform, corporate lobbying, public private partnerships, increased chemtrails, wars, etc -- these are ALL things a "conservative" would NEVER accept or condone if they came from "the left". Ask yourself why that is... why you're willing to accept it from Trump, esp given that he promised the opposite, but you'd be clutching your pearls with your hair on fire if it came from "the other side"? Trump's not taking down the DS, he IS the DS. They all are. And until people realize that, nothing will change. Frankly, given the point we're at, with the upcoming famine & human osmotic pressure the closure of the Strait will cause, most people are completely clueless about what's in store for them.

I think one of the reasons Orban lost was he has been heavily pro israel and I think Europeans are kind over the Israel first crowd and hate this was we started

The Europeans are against moscows mouse in Budapest.

By the way I suggest reading the leaked phone call between them. It’s comical.

The timing wasn’t accidental, either

They'll be sorry when the borders are opened to migrants and closed to oil, and when their kids go to school and learn about 57 genders. Not to mention being put into debt to pay Ukraine's grifters, with 10% for the Big Guys in the EU.

You can't fix stupid.

I lived around Greeks for a very long time and managed to learn a little of it, mostly "menu Greek".

I looked at the TruthSocial post and noticed that one hour before he reposted that particular AI generated meme, he also posted one that said literally something like “not a god or a savior, just a gift sent from God” and had a picture of himself wrapped in the flag. I truly don’t think he thought he was posting himself as Jesus. I think he was posting a picture of himself as a healer sent as a gift from God, like the disciples were sent out to heal. However, I hope he understands how people misread it and how it offended them and I hope he just deletes it also. But I honestly don’t think he was saying he was God, since literally one hour before that he literally said he’s not a savior or God.

President Trump has ALWAYS referred to God as "The Boss."

Remember in one of his rallies, he was talking about him not being as famous an another? Then pointed to the sky and said Jesus is more famous than ALL others.

In another rally, he referred to God as The Boss while pointing at the sky saying, "We need help from THE Boss."

Thank you for you comment Friend.

Also, it is amazing how President Trump can put people in the spot light.

I’m with you, Jessica. I didn’t see the previous DJT post you mention, I will have to look for that.

Thats interesting! Unfortunate that we, for all our tech, still so often don't get "the rest of the story"! Glad you found that.

Big pHarma is doing what the automobile companies did to prevent hybrids and electric cars. It didn’t last.

Sadly, lives will still be lost. It is War.

I hate that people Sell out!!! To the very people they are against. 😡 Money! The root of all kinds of evil!

God’s Word says it is not money itself that is evil, but “the love of money” is evil. Money can be used for much, much good in the right hands. 🙏😊

EVs don't seem to be lasting either. Sales are down. But the latest oil spike might change that again. Then China will once again be controlling the battery market.

Or we start having more brown outs and black outs.
