A C&C Special Edition roundup: The Epstein scandal is growing so big, so fast, that it threatens the entire world order. Just wait till you see the dots connect.
If you think this Epstein case isnβt connected to the communist democrats trying to put Trump behind bars for 500 years think again. They had the files! The raid on MaraLago was an attempt to silence him also. Besides being shot in the ear letβs hope prosecuting all of these child rapists is another Devine reason why DJT is in the White House.
Each of us must take up the mantle of prayer. While I may not be in any position to assist, I can and should pray! Ultimately we are watching the unfolding of a plan of Godβs own. Jeff reverenced the book of revelations and I cannot fathom what chapter we are watching but we are seeing a whole story unfurl in front of us. Please pray!

Wonderful! Iβm doing a daily phone alarm for 8:50 p.m. right now-thatβs so I can drop whatever Iβm doing and prepare my heart and mind to pray at 9:00.
We thank Him that He has revealed Himself and His Name, for His Name to be hallowed.
Hubs prays for the nation and our leaders, and that our nation would repentβ¦β¦for the protection and that our President, his family and his administration and their families would be divinely protected and for revival to begin in the Oval Office.
I continue the prayer, praying for pastors, teachers to repent and turn 180Β°, returning to the Lord, Most High, and for our families. That revival would sweep across our nation like a tsunami. We then pray for the peace of Jerusalem and the salvation of Judah AND for the House of Israel, wherever they are, all over the world. And that the tsunami would also reach the shores of all nations.
That His Kingdom come and His Will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
We thank Him for His provision and we ask that He cause those in the kingdom of darkness to turn on each other and begin to wage war amongst themselves.
It is amazing to me what happens when we turn and repent. He has driven us to our knees.
I called Speaker Johnsonβs office, 202-225-4000 (and actually spoke with a person!) to report my disgust with the NFL Halftime Show- I didnβt watch it, just hearing about it).

I used to watch the Grammy awards, just to see what artist had created something fine enough to shine. Then 2021 came along: Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion performed "WAP", featuring a giant stiletto heel and a massive bed. WAP was short for "Wet Ass *****". The two "artists" simulated sex acts onstage. I do not recognize our country's current culture, if you can call it that.
Also, if you haven't read it, here's EKO's take on Bad Bunny:
"The Endtime Show" on Rumble discusses lots of the current events and relates them to the scriptures... Quite fascinating the links they come up with. God bless you.
Prayer has to be a constant in our lives regardless of the events in all our lives whether personal, social, political etc. praying does not in any way relieve us of our responsibility to address these situations. I might be wrong in the following...seems there was a line from the movie My Fair Lady (in the best cockney accent): " The Lord 'elps dem wot 'elps dem selves".
The Our Father prayed sincerely covers a lot of territory. Iβm Catholic and try to pray the Rosary every day. Then I offer it up to a loose βagendaβ list I go through that addresses the concerns of the day.
*success of holy intentions of the church
*persecuted Christians throughout the world
*pathetic ones of my circle (sick, distressed)
*Israel and Jerusalem
*America (leaders, issues)
*My family (provide, protect, bring us all into Heaven)

Trumpβs DOJ does not have the resources to take down the Epstein cabal at same time as holding the 2020 Election Steal cabal and Government Fraud cabal accountable. The evil cabals will just wait Trump out. Perhaps itβs time to declare a National Emergency and use Military Tribunals.
This is a very insightful comment. DOJ insiders have said they don't have the resources to prosecute all the fraud in Minnesota, much less NY, IL, and CA - where the real fraud is. There's no way they have the resources to prosecute all that AND all the 2020 election fraud and everyone in Epstein's pedo ring. But, PROSECUTE SOMEONE!
It is a dilemma and as much as we need the 2020 election examined I believe the first priority is the Epstein circle of friends in our institutions. Bring them down and the fraud will also be brought down. It can't be happening at such scale that we suspect without the aid of those same "global elites".
Of course we could shut down all the government funds going to NGOs and pour it into DOJ and Border Control.
Sounds so simple doesnβt it? Think about the hoardes of uglies on the battlefield in the Lord of the Rings trilogy. The Deep State has had plenty of time to erect a multitude of defenses against all actions the good guys take. Complex, complicated spiritual battles going on at every turn.
Yeah it is not simple but you have to pick the biggest target dont you? Before they whittle you down.
Because they have well, most of the levers, and they even have people reputedly on this side clamoring for heads when wh have to get them in all the legal ways to make it stick.
I'm not saying don't harrie them from all side to wear them down, do that by all means. Call them out.
Speaking of multipliers; I would love to see Speaker Johnson (202)225-4000) and Senate Majority Leader (202-224-2321) John Thuneβs voicemail boxes be full everyday with at least the simple message; βgive President Trump what he needs for the fight. Thatβs what we voted for.β

one of the ways political power is built is by creating a patronage network. Trump needs to find and hire as many conservative attorneys as he can to staff the DOJ and other agencies needed to prosecute these cases. It's a win/win situation.
I think Military Tribunals are what this is leading towards. There's too much here to handle in the regular justice system, and as cathartic as it would be for us, mob justice would be too messy and spiritually unhealthy.
No pardon for Maxwell by Trump. This will only pollute the waters more, IMO. Because whatever Ghislaine says thereafter would be interpreted as βmade upβ by too many.
Please educate me....how could this be handled by a military court? These people, as despicable as they are, all have rights, due process and so on. Most of these people are civilians.
The trafficking, heinous as it is, is actually the lesser issue here. The web that connects all of these players is treason. They've all been actively working to overthrow legitimately elected officials and perform color revolutions globally. That's above the DOJ's pay grade.
Definition of Unlawful Enemy Combatant: Under the Military Commissions Act of 2006 (MCA), this includes individuals who have engaged in hostilities or purposefully and materially supported hostilities against the U.S., including those determined to be such by a Combatant Status Review Tribunal (CSRT).
I've been hearing on here that it is getting so large that it is becoming a national security issue; that's where I could see military tribunals possibly coming into play.
Well, you have a point but the rabid prosecutions of Jan 6th marchers is an example of how to approach this, if military tribunals are not quite the ticket.
If only so many of the attorney generals and federal judges hadnβt been captured or appointed by the left. Theyβre not going to prosecute and sentence their teammates.
I don't see how they can tie pedophilia with treason....maybe in cases where the pedophile was ensnared with black mail resulting in some sort of treasonous action (coughing up secrets). We can't set a president of suspending people's constitutional rights because they are despicable. According to "Hitlery" Clinton, all of us are despicable.
Was not suggesting the crimes are necessarily tied together although they often are. Treason is punishable by execution. The worst Pedos torture, kill, and eat children. That is not hyperbolic.
Quoting H Clinton?? could not think of a worse child tafficing witch
True, but what I've been hearing is that this whole thing is getting bigger by the minute and involving enough higher-ups that it is becoming a national security issue. That's where I could see military tribunals coming into play. And not just here in the US. Look at Starmer, for example. Those around him hip deep in it. And the crown princess in Norway.
Much as we wish it werenβt the case; If only so many of the attorney generals and federal judges hadnβt been captured or appointed by the left. Theyβre not going to prosecute and sentence their teammates.
We are in very dark realization times, however the truth is surfacing many times faster than ever before. As you know this is ultimately a war of the spirit. The good guys win...

You're assuming that the military tribunals would be any less corrupt or subject to political interference. Do keep in mind that in a military that's still dealing with the Biden Crime Syndicate legacy with all of those mentally unbalanced trans appointments, this is absolutely unlikely to be so.
In fact, I'd read articles pre-Trump that affirmed that they are capable of corruption and very much subject to political influence. I haven't had the time to check if/how that's changing since he took office.
That's a point I've considered, but I've got a few observations that show the military vastly prefers President Trump to Biden:
1. All of the branches have reported exceeding their recruitment goals last year. The MSM wants to paint this as people looking for a steady job in an unsteady economy, but true reason is President Trump and Pete Hegseth are bringing the military back to being a force worth fighting in. The kids joining actually want to represent this nation.
2. This is anecdotal: I live in a military town and see military of all ages and rank. The kids who have been joining up after DJT took office are both physically, mentally, and spiritually better off than the recruits I was seeing during the Biden installation.
3. The most important: There is no way President Trump could have pulled off arresting Maduro the way he did without a military that had his back. This operation was planned for the better part of a year completely in secret. No one leaked. No one. That's the sign of a military that trusts its leader and wants to do right.
Thatβs why the midterms are so important! We must codify in law thru congress all of the executive orders Trump had used to get this far, and vote in one day elections with paper ballots and photo voter ID thru the SAFE Act. The senate head, Thune, is not to be relied on IMO, I believe heβs a RINO at best, deep state even worse.
That is the real issue. They have flooded the zone with more evil than can be handled by one man in two years. The real test is whether the team he has assembled can stick together and the American people can stay focused. Past history is not encouraging on either count; yet I remain encouraged.
Just start with Bill Gates. Do people not realize that he is still out there scheming to take out humanity?
Why are we sitting around speculating about how to take down an entire edifice when that one man is capable of so much evil and is supremely liable on this Epstein issue?
If we can't focus on taking him down before he releases another bioweapon, it doesn't say much for our self-preservation instincts.
Chop, rumor has it that military trials have been going on for quite some time, based on thousands of sealed indictments by Jeff sessions and Federal prosecutor Huber. They will have been recorded.
Speaking of Military Tribunals I seem to recall that during Trump's first presidency there were changes to the JAG laws about prosecution of elected officials. Grok told me this and there seems to be some emphasis on sexual crimes:
Major Reforms Since 2016
The most substantial overhaul came from the Military Justice Act of 2016 (part of the National Defense Authorization Act for FY2017), which took effect on January 1, 2019. This represented the most significant update to the UCMJ since the 1980s, modernizing the system to align more closely with civilian criminal justice practices while addressing issues like sexual assault cases.
Key changes from the 2016 Act (effective 2019) included:
Modernizing definitions of offenses and adjusting maximum penalties.
Standardizing court-martial panel (jury) sizes.
Creating new offenses (e.g., retaliation for reporting crimes, certain computer crimes, fraudulent use of credit/debit cards).
Expanding judge-alone sentencing in some cases.
Increasing transparency (e.g., public access to many court-martial documents).
Broadening appeal opportunities for convicted service members.
Subsequent National Defense Authorization Acts (NDAAs) built on this, driven partly by concerns over sexual assault, harassment, and command influence in prosecutions:
FY2022 NDAA (effective around 2022β2023): Established the Office of Special Trial Counsel (OSTC) in each service, removing commanders' authority to decide on prosecuting "covered offenses" (e.g., sexual assault, domestic violence) and giving independent special trial counsel (certified JAG prosecutors) exclusive prosecutorial discretion. This aimed to reduce potential bias or undue command influence.
FY2023 NDAA: Added further refinements, such as random selection of court-martial members (to enhance impartiality), expanded jurisdiction in some areas, and made sexual harassment a standalone offense under Article 134.
Ongoing updates to the Manual for Courts-Martial (MCM) via presidential executive orders (e.g., 2023 and 2024 editions) implemented these statutory changes, including sentencing parameters/criteria for uniformity, modified appellate processes, and related procedural rules.
A 2024 Comprehensive Review by the Military Justice Review Panel assessed these post-2016 changes, noting their rapid pace required significant training and adaptation for JAGs and the services, while emphasizing ongoing needs for compliance and evaluation.
Johnny and Kitty.....Hard to tell. They were the inheritors a DOJ run by 2 Obama terms, a Trump term where he was so behind the eight ball ,and a Biden term. Essentially a DOJ worse than the Wild West in its heyday. AND that does not even speak about the FBI. How you inherit that and change it all in ONE Year???? Really the abuse and malfeasance at DOJ has been there for years and years and decades.
Our Lord has His Hand in this bringing down the evil. The worst part of all this are the satanic rituals of child sacrifice have to be broadcast far and wide exposing all those that murdered and possibly ingested those babies. It is a foulness that God will not look away from. May God's sunshine pierce the dark veil of these demonic abominations and bring severe punishment to those involved. And may Ghislaine who is pleading the 5th pay the ultimate price for her depravity....a slow heinous and painful death.
As I read this a.m.'s post, I mused about those public school principals who accepted the creation of after-school Satan clubs. Wonder if they are currently re-thinking their "wisdom". Wonder if those principals may be currently considering lawyering up.
Never heard about that but what sickness that is. I hope they are lawyering up and I hope they fail. What I would do to them I cannot say here but you mess with kids and you are horizontal.
I have no desire to meet someone on earth or in Heaven who most likely sacrificed babies and ingested some of their anatomy. Are you kidding me? I refuse to believe that God can love that demon in human form. But if anyone can, He can.
If you want to spend Eternity with her, go for it. I would then prefer to work for God in some capacity outside of Heaven if that is possible.
I have bad news for you: ALL sin is equal in God's eyes, and forgivable, but one: blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. Her sins are no worse than yours, no matter how we feel about them. To break even part of one commandment is to break them all, which is why we ALL need to be redeemed by Christ.
the word de sire is worthy of unpacking, it literally translates into "of the father" People are virtue verse signalling. There is some low level interpretation being posted.
you have no concerns, whomever suggested that GM will be in heaven is a fool.
But there does come a time apparently, in the end when Yehovahβs wrath is releasedβ¦..He knows mankindβs hearts, He knows when people have given themselves completely over to demons.
Romans 1
βFor the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men. In unrighteousness they suppress the truth, because what can be known about God is plain to themβfor God has shown it to them. His invisible attributesβHis eternal power and His divine natureβhave been clearly seen ever since the creation of the world, being understood through the things that have been made. So people are without excuseβ for even though they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God or give Him thanks. Instead, their thinking became futile, and their senseless hearts were made dark. Claiming to be wise, they became fools. They exchanged the glory of the immortal God for an image in the form of mortal man and birds and four-footed beasts and creeping things. Therefore God gave them over in the evil desires of their hearts to impurity, to dishonor their bodies with one another. They traded the truth of God for a lie and worshiped and served the creation rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. For this reason God gave them up to shameful passions. Even their women exchanged natural relations for what is against nature. Likewise the men abandoned natural relations with women and were burning with passion toward one anotherβmen committing shameful acts with other men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error. And just as they did not see fit to recognize God, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what is not fitting. They became filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents. They are foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless. Though they know Godβs righteous decreeβthat those who practice such things deserve deathβthey not only do them but also approve of others who practice the same.β
Perhaps, the Unites States of America has become so evil. so compromised, that our God, the God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob , will remove His hand of protection and allow us to be punished by foreign forces.
He has allowed us 250 years to do His will, repent when we don't, and we did pretty good for a while. But the last 100 years, probably more, haven't been so stelar. There is no mention of a united state, a power from the West, that will stand by Israel when it is attacked as depicted in Ezekiel 38-39. This is by design, to show the world that Israels' strength and power comes from God alone.
The clock is running down, are we ready? Exciting times ahead. Humbly, I live like His return is tomorrow, fight like His return is another 100 years away.
I'm getting an "age restricted content" block on your comment, even though my VPN and location are both in the United States. That must be some doozy in there.
This is what I wrote and I can't imagine this deserves blockage.

It is absolutely disgusting that Substack would block that as "Age Restricted Content". The other 'stacks that Substack is blocking have the same message - they're calling out the criminals. It's almost as if Substack is using the Online "Safety" Act as a convenient cudgel for free speech, just like Facebook and YouTube.
I'm not using Brave right now and I know it's Substack because they gave me a "learn more" message about working the with Online "Safety" Act. The principle of this is that Substack is purposely suppressing speech to accord with a "Safety" Act that is meant for censorship.
Yup. I'm getting this same "Age Restricted Content" with a couple other Substacks I read as well. Looks like Substack bent the knee to the Online "Safety" Act and are punishing people with VPNs while putting out a BS line about "keeping this a place for great culture". It's not even letting me verify my age to get around it.
I've just discovered this, so right now, I'm purposely sharing every comment I write here about Substack doing this to my notes. Either they'll feel some shame and back off, or they'll get annoyed and blast me off of this platform. Let's find out.
It could be a technical issue with your VPN. I've been having issues with a VPN too. Other issues. Windows and all the AIs are not playing nice with the VPNs.
And we declare that just as Korach was swallowed by the earth along with all that was hid when he attempted to take over, so will God avenge his little ones.
Epstein wasn't an anomaly or unique in his services and connections, he was just VERY, VERY GOOD at it. THIS scale and scope of child abuse, trafficking, and compromising of public officials (and more easily; simply electing and appointing of predators) has been going on since the Progressive-Occultists were first flexing their collective takeover of US and all its institutions of education, religion, and New Dealing expansions of government. The intentional Cult-mind control through pop-culture and education at an industrial scale has made its impact. The mainstreaming of pornography and violence as entertainment, promotion of homosexualism as being mainstream and normal, vaccining of kids into autism and behavioral issues, isolating and targeting them as Transgenders, pushing kids to illicit drug use and mass prescriptive drugs for boys, psychological tormenting of girls, radicalizing and inducing kids to violence, the tens of thousands of missing and exploited-trafficked kids each year, fractured families, teachers, counsellors, pastors and priests viewed as the worst sort of predators in society. Also recall the Obama-UN presided wave of Unaccompanied Refugee Minors that flooded out from Middle East into Western nations and the uniform regs on how to help settle and support them all was pre-prepared and ready to fully implement. This isn't Libertarianism or Freedom, this is Satanic Anarchism, Wickedness, and Enslavement.
WP, Yes, all of that - causing chaos and disorientation throughout the nation - the stated goal of the WHO/WEF: to dissolve national identification. Thus achieving a weakened citizenry, the globalists intend to move in and take over America.
Would be interesting to see if Savannah Guthrie knows something or was about to come forward with some truth about these files. I canβt quite make sense of all the coverage of her motherβs disappearance.
Idk but itβs disturbing and suspect that they have it dominating every news program, even on Fox, who typically balance both sides of an issue even if we donβt like it. But even Fox is overkill. I think maybe itβs because they donβt want to be caught in βlacking compassionβ if indeed whatβs going on is real and authentic. Kind of like CYA ahead of time until there is indisputable evidence otherwise?
Savanah and her siblingβs statements are too weird for me. I laughed when last night Fox kept saying the latest wasnβt scripted. Oh yes it was!! βShe was taken and we donβt know where.β Well duh. π€¦πΌββοΈ Why even say that?
Just because she wasnβt reading from a piece of paper in her hands doesnβt mean itβs not scripted. π
The whole thing is really, really weird. We all feel it in our gut but because we have no evidence or proof we have to be careful how we come off. But I always trust my gut instincts. And since so many of us are having those exact same instincts, that tells me thereβs a spiritual movement in our souls triggering these alarms.
However, thereβs an outside chance itβs all legit and Savanah is just a captured, leftist drama queen that canβt get out from her scripted bubble even when she should.
I just listened to Lara Logan's Going Rogue podcast with Svetlna Lokhova (the "russian spy" at the center of Russia gate and more - except she's a British citizen), it is angering and depressing at the same time. That so many people could - literally - commit treason and everyone just shrugs is potentially catastrophic to this country.
It's a three hour podcast but ABSOLUTELY worth a listen. Ms. Lokhova has highly in depth knowledge of the far ranging conspiracy to depose Trump. And yes, it does go all the way up to Obama, and documents prove it. Brennan (and Clapper, Comey, and others) are in real danger.
If this goes to trials, Trump will have a unique opportunity to unite the country. He could offer a sort of "truth and reconciliation" platform where those involved plead guilty to their treasonous actions, accept a felony conviction, with Trump then offering clemency (not a pardon). Obama is probably untouchable since he has presidential immunity
(you know, that think lefties complained so loudly about).
Oddly enough, the Mar-a-Lago raid means the grand juries on this matter and any succeeding trials would be held in Florida, not DC where Trump would get hostile judges and juries. Cases in Florida would likely get assigned to Judge Aileen Cannon - who the left hates almost as much as they hate Trump.
Actually she was his wife at the time of the attempted assassination, Kathleen Shaffer, and our very own Jeff Childers talked about her job at a CIA front company:
The weaponized agents were looking for specific files. They failed miserably as the files were not there. Much speculation on what exact files. At this late date we are winning bigly, and the country most definitely supports DJT's efforts.
The insanity of the radical left, their endless grifting exposed, to include attempts to overthrow the Gubmit and destroy this country have also failed. They remain dangerous but have lost control.
Good morning, C&Cers. Iβve thought for awhile that Trump was going to turn out to be Batman in this whole Epstein deal. He spoke about it once a little while ago while gaggling with the press on AF1 and you could sense his animosity toward Epstein and knowing Trump, Iβm guessing he never forgot that Epstein βstoleβ a very young Virginia Guiffre from a safe job at a Trump golf course spa and trafficked her to the rich and famous, almost rubbing his nose in it. I wonder sometimes if the Epstein thing (at its beginning) was actually where destroying the swamp became a personal issue for Trump.
Iβve had this thought too, not that the media would ever credit him. Theyβre way too bought into the βTrump is hitlerβ narrative to ever admit it.β Will be interesting to see what the history books say. I hope my great grandkids get to ask me about this period of time for a school project when Iβm 90, like I did about the great depression and WWII with my grandparents.
Your comment about the media and βTrump is Hitlerβ nonsense β¦ made me think how the media is completely blind to what is happening under its nose. Trump is working swiftly and diligently and accomplishing something we cannot yet see. Ultimately, only God Himself can pull off such a large fete and Trump is only His chosen tool β¦ I am praying for the Lordβs continued favor for our country. All of the remnant β¦ PRAY!
There are none so blind as those who will not see. The media does not want to see because the vast majority of "journalists" are nothing less than propaganda tools.
Oh I agree that the rank and file media are clueless to what is really going on...the young people have to break the indoctrinated thinking to see the reality...
There is no way on God's little green earth the media (not necessarily the "journalists" but the CEOs) are not complicit in the Epstein debaucle. In fact they are likely co-conspirators. We have sensed for years that the press is in someone's pocket. I think it likely it was Epstein's. But to me the larger question is who's pocket Epstein was in. I think Daddy's girl Maxwell. But who did she serve? The Mossad? The CIA? MI6? All of the above? Is there an organization or collaberation at play that makes the UN look like a retarded step-child?
Promethean Action is very good at explaining the apparatus. Itβs all interconnected to the City of London, and Israel is a construct of that elite group. As I understand it.
Do not excuse MI6. Ghislaine Maxwell acknowledged her father's role therein. I believe the CIA plays a role but my instinct is they are not the controlling interest. Maybe Mossad. But my money is on MI6. Or possibly the Russians. Does the KGB still exist?
Not just the media, but all the people with TDS refuse to believe that Trump is wearing a white hat in this matter. Just look at all the pathetic comments on X and elsewhere of people trying to twist the story of Trump contacting the police as something sinister.
He knows he will never get any credit with the MSM and I donβt think he cares. I think he is ready to kick ass and take names. Weβre already getting the names.
Winston Churchill said βHistory shall be kind to me for I intend to write it.β And he did. When all we have believed in, all our lives, is shaken as badly as it is being shaken now, there is only one place we can stand firmly. With God.
I wonder if Epstein is really dead. If his net was as extensive as we are now finding out, it seems interesting that a βsomeoneβ ordered his death. (He didnβt kill himself).
Epstein likely had the largest network of nefarious fixers known to mankind. Springing him from jail and faking his death, would be a piece of pizza, I mean cake.
A photo has recently surfaced purportedly of a long haired and bearded Jeffrey Epstein surrounded by security guards in Israel. The photo is discussed in this post.
I read an account of a simple Greek islander on a small Greek island who noticed a yacht and some formally dressed people and went closer to the harbor to look when he saw a man there with a beard who he thought looked just like the photos of Epstein in the newspapers. π€·
I ran the images through ChatGPT to assess whether they appeared AI-generated or manipulated. The analysis did not flag the images as AI. Instead, it suggested they resemble real photographs or video stills that have been selectively edited for anonymity.
I cannot believe that any of those involved would want to keep Epstein alive....they would be more interested in saving themselves and, to do that, best to get rid of the one person who knew all.
Saw pictures of a man with long grey hair and beard walking the streets in Israel with body guards .. the post showed Epstein then and nowβ¦heβs alive.. never died that night..
This is not the first time Trump has worked with law enforcement. Back when he had his casino in Atlantic City, he and his brother, worked with the Feds with regard to organized crime.
Personal issues are great motivators. Remember, Melania was a model and child trafficking is an issue she has taken on. Trump was also friends with JFK Jr.
I don't think Trump's "destroying of the swamp" BECAME a personal issue for Trump relevant to Virginia Guiffre. I think his want for destroying the swamp started much earlier.
But Trump's annihilation of the swamp relevant to the exposure of the Virginia Guiffre tragedy, is definitely the icing on the cake for him.
I was just recently reading my kids the story of Joseph being sold into slavery in Egypt by his brothers, but years later being able to rescue them from famine. He says to them, βwhat you intended for evil, God intended for good.β Joseph had lived through literal slavery in a foreign nation, dead to his own family, falsely accused of rape and imprisoned for years.
There is nothing good about the Epstein debauchery BUT ironically, it may end up taking down a huge portion the pediphilic elite. Satan always thinks heβs got the upper hand. But God always wins.
The idea of dividing people to maintain power over them is as old as warfare itself. This is achieved by breaking up larger concentrations of power into smaller weaker pieces like what theyβve done to the American middle class. It involves sowing discord among adversaries to subjugate them with minimal effort. The deep state has gone so far as too divide families to maintain their power. Whatβs been done in Minnesota is just one example.
My Opinion on Relationships
& Marraige
My wife has a nephew who went through public schools. At the young age of 17 he came to live with us. Stephan was a different boy who certainly had very different goals and motivations than I. When he was in his senior year of high school his father packed up and left for Tennessee, leaving Stephan alone at their house that the bank would soon take. When he began to work with me he said he didnβt want to be paid, that he hated money. Of coarse I told him he had to be paid.
Stephan did everything he could to not grow up. He wanted to keep those childhood ways of life. Some days at the job I would be deep into work, trying to get the job moving and thinking of the best ways to make things go quicker and more efficiently, Iβd see Stephan daydreaming. I had an image of him in a big grassy field smelling wild flowers, certainly not thinking about his job. Stephan was much different than myself, in a way it made me sad having to break him away from his desire to stay in his childhood and move forward from child to a responsible self sufficient adult. It felt like 100 years had gone by since I had his mindset, I struggled with the idea of taking it from him. To this day Stephan in many ways hasnβt changed, I accept him and love him just the way he is.
We sometimes have to accept people for who they are. When we get into a relationship with someone itβs easy to think we have to make them into who we want them to be, especially our spouse, our children or the people close to us. One of the best lessons Iβve learned is people havenβt come into my life so I can make them just like me. God made us different on purpose. Different personalities, different strengths, different looks, weβre all at different maturity levels. The mistake we can make is we try to fit them into our mold. Itβs like we have them on our potters wheel, weβre trying to work out the lumps get rid of what we donβt like and get them all fixed up. The problem with this is weβre not the potter, God is. God is the one making and molding people. Really we canβt change anyone. We can encourage them, we can pray for them, we can lead by example, but only God can truly change a person. When someone doesnβt have our same strengths and weβre working overtime trying to make them just like us, all that does is frustrate us. It brings stress and tension into the relationship. Youβve got to give people room to be who God made them to be. God likes variety.
When I got married I first (unknowingly) tried to make my wife just like me. I thought what greater gift could I possibly give her than thatπ. I was very naive. The ironic thing is we are drawn to people that have strengths different from ours. My wife has different strengths than I do. She is outgoing, likes to talk to people, sheβs straight forward. One day at a wedding we attended an older woman asked her if she was hired as the party starter. Iβm much more quiet, I keep to myself, I never ask for help. I learned pretty quickly trying to make my strengths her strengths just caused problems. It dawned on me she doesnβt want to be just like me. I learned I was the one that needed to change.
Sometimes we get into relationships with someone and say wow I love your good qualities now I want you to have mine as well. The truth is no person has it all. The scripture talks about how we have to make allowances for peoples weaknesses. What would happen if we all would start accepting the people God put in our life and stop trying to change them. First we would have better relationships and second we wouldnβt live frustrated trying to make them into something that theyβre not. Give people the room to not be perfect. Instead of complaining about what we donβt like about a person try a different approach, start telling a person what you do like about them. People respond to praise a lot better than they respond to criticism.
Itβs amazing what people will do when you see the best in them, when you honor them, when you respect them, it not only strengthens the relationship but it will help that other person to rise higher. As you give encouragement, show honor, show respect they will continue to rise to the level that you pour into them. If you want to make your spouse, your children, your loved one a better person honor them in a greater way. Accept them for who they are. Give them your approval even if they donβt fit into your mold. You have tremendous power and influence into their lives. You can push them further with your honor your acceptance, your approval or you can withhold it and keep them back.
Too many people end a relationship because thereβs one main thing they donβt like about the person. They focus on what annoys them and magnify that they have too much of this or not enough of that. Theyβll go find somebody else that has a strength where that other person had a weakness. The problem is this new person has a weakness where the other person had a strength. You see weβre just moving things around. Itβs always going to come back to overlooking the weaknesses, seeing the best in them, accepting people for who they are. No one person can give you everything that you need. Youβve got to focus on their good qualities and not get frustrated on what they canβt give you.
Remember God is the potter. Donβt love them only if they meet your standard. Pour on the honor and you will not only find your relationship strengthened you will see the person in your life rise to new levels.
I saw a psychology video one time. A teacher was told her students were special, all gifted. So she taught them as though they were gifted and special. It was all filmed and analyzed. The students were the opposite of gifted. All were poor students. Some had family issues and some were just a little slow. A miracle happened. The students responded to the teacher and performed as if they were gifted. All of them.
I had heard a similar story where they told the teachers they were gifted and given students to see if they could improve the students learning. At the same time the students were told they had been picked because of their learning ability. In the end both the students and the teachers raised their abilities to learn and to teach 2 fold. Itβs truly amazing what encouragement, respect and honor people.
Regarding your nephew... Sounds as if the "green valley" daydreams were a survival mechanism! (who leaves their kid in the house the bank is going to repossess? My brother has his grandson living with him - his son my nephew, died from MRSA - caused by ventilator intubation - 2021! I think my meaning is clear - my nephews death was preventable!
To finish the story, my nephew's divorced wife decided she wanted a relationship with another guy a year later - only that guy didn't want a teenage stepson... So sad! She gave up her son for a man who has since left her!) - thank God - my brother finished raising his grandson! The young man has a pretty good head on his shoulders.
Long story.
All that to say - I understand your post - and appreciate it!
James Goodrich - you make me think - you sound like my husband (quiet, introvert, smart, logical and tender hearted) - I am my husband's opposite:
I don't know a stranger, talk freely to anyone - love to encourage others in their gifted areas, more emotional than logical, etc. And yes - these trait difference have caused friction between my husband and I over decades of marriage! π
But - we have learned to appreciate the differences and laugh - alot!
God has blessed me with my husband - I truly am SO thankful for him!
Thank you for sharing today! I enjoyed and appreciated it!
Hug your wife and tell her you love her!
I will respect my husband and thank God for our unique differences! π
Iβm very sorry for the loss of your nephew, so horrible. My nephews father is a very selfish guy. My sister in law lost custody to her β6β kids, Stephan was the 2nd oldest. Heβs really a good kid he just canβt seem to get it together. He moved to Portland Oregon with his girlfriend, I spoke to him yesterday.
Reading this, especially the part about God, made me think that trying to change people into what *we* want them to be is prideful. We think we know best and that person should become like us. What makes us think they should be more like us when we are imperfect, too?
Conservatives protest best with our feet and our wallets. We are never going to outperform the theatre kids and their outrage riots, nor imho should we want to.
Valerie, Do you mean to say that you can't see yourself rolling on frozen ground, screaming, cursing, flailing, and blowing a whistle while your co-protesters film, scream, curse, and blow whistles?
Also, I am a chilly person who sits on a heating pad at the dinner table so I donβt get cold. Hanging out outside in freezing weather sounds like particular form of torture designed just for me. Iβll pass.
I just donated again as the first time was before the multiplier but its building up fast. Warner must see this and know he is loved and respected by all of us!
I didnβt get to donate until this morning. I hope others will still donate today who didnβt yet. We will knock out the remaining balance and more! God will multiply and bless the generosity and love from C&C Army.
Warner not only fought covid cases, but he started Freedom Counsel which taught other lawyers how to fight them and created a forum for discussion as this was a new area of law
I posted yesterday, but late, 480 comments, and I want to make sure you see this as this man is obviously very important to you.
I am not going to donate to the multiplier for Warner Mendenhall, because if he is doing conventional slash burn poison treatments, no amount of money is going to save him. I will however, offer my time. What ever it takes. Every day if he wants. As I have posted in the past, I cured my wife's Stage 2B breast cancer. holistically No oncologist, no slash burn poison. I doubt not one in 10,000, perhaps on in 100,000 people can say that. While some people take that approach, not more than 5-10 % do it until after they have already seriously compromised their immune system with conventional treatments. . I'll wager I am the only person on the site that can say they are not afraid of getting cancer, at least not fast acting cancer induced by an intelligence agency.
The first thing he needs if he choses this route is an advocate, who must be part nurturer, part advisor, part drill sargeant. I will do that if he wants, or if he is married, his wife and I can do that together. I can tell him protocols , what not to do, prioritize protocols., and tell him what we did. If you find a way to put him in contact with me, E mail or phone, that is going to be of far more benefit than any money you can raise for him. You have my E mail from my subscription,
My sister had a stage 4 tumor from a rare form of adrenal cancer removed surgically in 2012. No chemo or radiation follow up. Metastasized to liver in 2021, and half her liver was removed. Fortunately liver can regenerate, and hers did. No chemo or radiation follow up.
She is still going strong at age 73, and treats her food and drink as medicine - careful choices and portions. No one would guess her history.
PS: She also was diagnosed in 1990 with multiple sclerosis, but has never been bedridden or hospitalized for it because of her food and activity choices and strong belief in and service to God.
With you on that sir. Iβve seen first hand what protocols do. My bride has multiple myeloma. Shes in total remission after a stem cell transplant, highly successful going on eight years. But the initial crap she was started on, she was ready to give up. Not too many 65 years old olds in my brideβs condition. They donβt survive this treatment too well. So yeah, if my condition turns into something, Iβm not going anywhere near our hematologist,and hes a great guy, and I trust him right now,but if I end up in her shoes, there us no way Iβm doing that.
I did participate in the multiplyer but as a 40+ year Ciropractor ABSOLUTELY am in agreement about the failed current system of cut, poison, burn. Relying on the GOD given innate intelligence of the human body, real food, appropriate nutritional supplementation, and fervent prayer is more effective than what is accepted as βbest methods. β Cancer is simply a symptom and does not have to end Hope or continued life!
Exactly. Unless a tumor is blocking something critical, like your intestines, or pressing on your brain, cancer does not kill you. Whatever underlying symptoms that caused the cancer will, or the chemo or radiation. Cancer is your body's last ditch attempt to get you to fix or change whatever caused the cancer.
So many just canβt, or their families canβt, comprehend how bad our medical system really is. Iβm surprised Mr Mendenhall doesnβt. Does a cancer diagnosis freeze peopleβs critical thinking? Iβll continue to pray he will see the light!
It strikes fear in someone like no other diagnosis. That was Rockefeller' plan, and it works like a charm. My wife panicked and scheduled a masectomy as soon as the biopsy came back.. Did not even meet with a plastic surgeon until after we had decided to go holistic, and she found that more horrifying than doing nothing. If not for divine intervention from someone we did not even know the day before the surgery, and my talking her into going a different way, she would have had her right breast cut off. And family sure as hell is not help. it takes a lot of courage and conviction to step outside the matrix, and then a lot of research to convince yourself you have made the right choice.
My son-in-laws aunt (so someone I donβt know very well) was diagnosed with: years ago with bladder cancer (Covid shot related, imo). She of course went the traditional route, with little result. But thankfully she continued to be open to my sending her info/articles about non-traditional cancer therapies. She now sees a naturopath and is in remission. π
At my age, and this will drive my bride nuts, as she is a retired rn, at the top of the game level, I have no intention of following doctors protocols if this turns into leukemia. Not gonna do it.
I completely understand your point. However, Warner has sacrificed so much when he could have just retired. If you don't donate to his give send go, consider donating to his organization he started to help teach other lawyers how to fight the pandemic related cases. I've donated every year: Freedom Counsel. We need to support those who are fighting the tyranny
I would suggest a 3rd way if he is afraid to deviate from using chemo. This center I am linking uses low dose chemo as well as a host of the best natural treatments. Check out their reviews on Google maps, too.
Just like it has been said widely it is not our job to red pill anyone, I do not consider my job to force or even coax anyone into deviating from their faith in the allopathic Rockefeller medical system which has been drilled into us all our lives. If you have ever been with someone being given IV chemo, you know it is treated as the highly toxic chemical concoction it is. The first chemo drug was derived from leftover WWI mustard gas. All that have followed are also toxic. There is no amount of it that is safe. I appreciate your trying to help, but for every step forward someone might take following the type of protocols we used, each chemo treatment will take you 2 steps back
Yes, βterminalβ cancer is not a death sentence. I began teaching g herbal medicine after I supported my bff through a stage 4 cancer diagnosis in 2009. She did the chemo and the radiation and she credits the herbs and the mind medicine with her miraculous recovery. I teach a class called Dancing with Cancer for people with cancer and their caregivers. AncientMotherWisdom.com
Incredibly generous offer rolandttg!! Iβve followed your story over the years and weβve discussed a little for various reasons. If I ever got that diagnosis I already know I would try to find you somehow! I hope that Jeff sees this and passes on your information.
I have heard nothing, and to be frank, I am disappointed. This is not just what I know. It was what I did.. I am just as disappointed that someone thinks I should just send money anyway, when I have offered a gift to this man that transcends the entire $280K raised so far on this platform, and costs me far more in time than you can put a price on. FYI. Bill Henderson, RIP, wrote "Cancer Free", his step by step guide to holistic cancer healing, worked as a paid Cancer Advocate. No idea what this service costs, but I am thinking a lot. I am offering this for free. HFC what more could anyone in his situation ask for. ?
It is amazing that the real story of Epstein's lock on all things CIA, NSA, MOSSAD, etc. are being covered up by the nonstop media coverage over the missing grandmother in Tuscon.
I'm not buying any of that story. It is as poorly scripted as Charlie Kirk's televised murder mystery.
Are the worst Netflix writers in charge of this irrational story?
Grandma of beloved celebrity gets abducted in the middle of the night, no video or audio evidence whatsoever, family is begging for help on TV, President and FBI intervene with absolutely zero results. Suddenly we become aware of tech weaknesses and media use the story to push for, you guessed it, MORE SURVEILLANCE EVERYWHERE!
The fake news media has no new ideas and no new writers. They recycle the same stupidity for their gullible audience.
It's driving me nuts. I am so sick of Suzanna Guthrie. I feel for the family but give me a break. I don't have to see the non news all day long, every day.
But what is true and what is not? π€Someone who I know who dared to start going down the rabbit hole of the files said Trump is mentioned doing something disturbing to a child.
βIs mentionedβ. Donβt forget there was a LOT of phony tips given by unreliable people (hearsay and delusional, obviously set up to give false testimony,) as well as false accusations planted into the files before Trump DOJ took over again. He was their biggest threat so they were going to accuse even though he is innocent. Those who know Trump best know he would NEVER harm a child, and certainly not this way. Maybe in his youth he was like every other guy and chased skirts, but they were always adult age.
The best way to know the truth is to read Cathy O'Brien's book Transformation of America (1994) and Nick Bryant's book The Franklin Sandal (2011) Get Cathy's book from her website or the Amazon link on her website as there are many altered fakes. Read slowly. It was hard to sleep for me when first reading them.
Trump The Original Epstein Whistleblower, Howard Lutnick The Pedo Crypto Criminal, 330 Gallons Of Sulphuric Acid To Dispose Of Baby Corpses & "Human Incubatorsβ
....As the Epstein Files data dump coalesces into ever more depraved fact patterns of a broad range of heinous crime there is one especially encouraging reveal involving President Trump; to wit:...
....It is clear from this evidence that Trump is acutely aware of the boundless evil that courses through this NWO globopedo sex trafficking network, and yet his cabinet still remains staffed with high-level Epstein coconspirators....
....It is high time for President Trump to call the police in 2026 just like he did two decades earlier on all of these Epstein pedo culprits, because without mass arrests nothing will ever change, and the last vestiges of this Constitutional Republic will soon cease to exist.
Iβve spent my professional career implementing orders into results and the order in which you conduct the actions is critical.
Think of demolitions; the preparation is critical and that process takes 99.9% of the time. When the structure implodes, itβs completed in a matter of seconds yet it took months to prepare. Our administration is attacking the infrastructure (USAID, vote rigging, and the fraud that generates $) itβs not a small and quick procedureβ¦ we are witnessing progress.
One word: PATIENCE. We donβt need a βjenga β collapse, we need a Tropicana Hotel outcome.
Yes. This is how I see it too. You have to be very careful and strategic about how you go about something important in order to get the result that you want.
I like this in relation to what Trump is doing and is what I expect in relation to bringing down ActBlue Fraud via USAID and the like... But else where the same word "Patience" was raised in regard to all the Epstein crap - which for me is just distraction from what you are talking about... although truth be told - they may all be part and parcel of the same past practices)... I made this reply to the Epstein angle:
No, No Thank you. Patience is trusting the Govt. to do it's job, investigate wrong doing and for US to not WASTE our time with it; until we hear about the Arrests and see fruits of our taxes being usefully spent bringing those to justice. THIS reveals the ROT of Govt. and how it was and is part and parcel of the crime. The time for patience is past - as I've stated elsewhere:
We know the Govt. participated in a sting when Epstein's black book was put up for sale. It's in Evidence.... That's what started all this million pages of documents. People's cry for "Epstein's Black Book"... and yet everyone falls for distraction and it's been forgotten - with millions of pages of documents released... that's not the 1st one? I'm calling bullshit on the whole shit show.
The Govt. / Our representatives need to Work on solutions to the Federal Debt ( https://www.usdebtclock.org ) then there will NOT be Trillions floating around to devalue our dollar and line the pockets of failed prep school teachers who find "social engineering" a more lucrative way to make their way in the world.
βThe former prosecutor-turned-Epstein-associates-lawyer became a federal magistrate. That same magistrate, Bruce Reinhart, later authorized the Mar-a-Lago raid.β
That right there is just one coincidence too many when you consider Trump calling the cops on Epstein 20 years ago. The memory of the swamp is long and the tentacles extend far.
So, waiting for that magistrate to go to go down in flames .... And if he was compromised enough for that, what else is hidden under his hat or his wallet?
Remember, before DJT, the very position of the Presidency was considered 'too important to tarnish'. What they don't seem to understand is the very act of hiding the evils done from there only increases the tarnish and asks for more. Sunlight is the best disinfectant and should be liberally applied to the most important places first!
Don't compare Trump's " ... pulling down and exposing a global order of elite networks and institutions" to what Jesus did. Trump seems more like Nebuchadnezzar aka Nebuchadrezzar - a chosen instrument of God that he used to discipline his wayward people. I support what Trump is doing. I also pray often that Mr Trump will remember that he serves God, and not the other way around.
Trump did not do any such thing... in fact, he did everything he could to quash the Epstein matter entirely.
He denied, like the scumbags Blondi, Kash and Bongina, that the files even existed... he then said they were a Dem hoax... now he says "let's all move on"...
Wonder Why Americans Have Tolerated Epstein Economics and Epstein Government for So Long?
About 128 million Americans watched the Super Bowl on Feb. 8. Some 57% of Americans engage in gambling, which is estimated to be a $209 billion per year βindustry.β On top of that, 60% of Americans are βregular usersβ (at least once in the last month) of porn, which is a $100 billion per year βindustry.β And 61.5 million Americans (23.4% of adults) used marijuana in 2024, with the total street value of all of Dope, Inc.βs drugs internationally estimated at about $1 trillion. In all of these areasβgambling, porn, and drugsβthe percentages are appreciably higher in the younger cohorts than among older generations.
happy to say I do none of the above. The Superbowl kowtows to the Left and all things decadent. Goodell refused to accept CTE when it was first diagnosed. He is a very bad man, perhaps even evil. I refuse to give him or the NFL 2 seconds of my time or money.
Bruh you lost me on weed. How anybody could choose alcohol over an edible and say they care about being around as long as they can for their kids is mind boggling to me.
I mean sure, why have any vice I guess, but I am a little more realistic in what I can ask of myself so I don't feel as much guilt. When I read in the files about the DARK evil in the world, buying an edible from the dispensary down the street is not making the radar and it is NOT a gateway to anything else.
Some of us find the cloying stench of weed very offensive. I have a glass of wine at an outdoor table and you are unaffected. You walk by smoking a joint and my dinner is ruined.
My daughter developed an anaphylactic allergy to secondhand pot smoke her first semester in college (straight Aβs - never did drugs or drank). Her life forever upended thanks to the uncontrolled drug crisis on campuses. Had to drop out - couldnβt keep her safe and out of the ER. Gave up her college dreams of becoming a speech therapist. We live in fear. She must leave our home every day with a P100 respirator to avoid exposure - the only way we can keep her from constant epi pen use. Just moved further west on 3 acres to get away from the constant smoke in our old neighborhood. Sheβs married and expecting her first baby - we must protect them both. Drugs are awful for this country. Iβm fully aware of the medical uses for cancer etc. But it is just an easy way out for some instead of doing the hard work in therapy. Just use the edibles and let my daughter breathe freely! Sorry for the rant - but we are 6 years into this horrific journey. (After seeing multiple Drs/allergists etc - most likely caused by a vax injury from the meningitis vx prior to college. She knows 2 others with exact same issue - same timing as freshmen in college. )
What a terrible thing! It's a new allergy for me to hear about but it makes sense that vaccine adjuvants would activate the immune system to Marijuana that's been bred to be so potent as it is today. The amount of suffering vaccines are causing young people seems to have no end. I pray it stops, that the truth comes out, and that solutions come to light.
No vapes or smokes. Just low dose edibles. I need to be around for my own kids lives for as long as possible.....But its no more of a drug than an aspirin (bad for stomach) ibuprofen (bad for kidneys), Tylenol (bad for immune trigger).
I have heard about the attenuated virus vax's causing the body to SEARCH on Defcom 5 to find the offending culprit (which is the adjuvant) and in the end it finds peanut butter, or in your daughters case 2nd hand smoke....which leads to the runaway allergic reaction.
I am sorry for the drama it has caused you and wish you, your daughter and your soon to be grandbaby all the happiness and health in the world.
I suggest you find a Homeopath who can help your daughter with her vax injury. There are remedies that help with vax injuries. They can help you long distance if need be if you can't find one locally.
Yes - she saw a special fertility acupuncturist who helped her with PCOS and did a full detox. We eat super clean, try to be as toxin free as possible - use RO water system - air purifiers etc. we also use a functional med Dr. Soooo glad my gut said heck no to the Cvd poisonβ¦.
Maybe try this guy? Barry Smeltzer, PA-C, who is affiliated with the American Academy of Environmental Medicine (AAEM) and is noted for his work in environmental medicine.
I am so sorry, that's really terrifying. Living near Seattle I know how insidious and pervasive marijuana smoke can be. The increasingly widespread use is not just an annoyance, it can be life threatening for someone like your daughter.
Congratulations on the upcoming birth of your grandchild, and prayers for a safe delivery!
Do you think allergy shots might help reduce sensitivity? It is a plant and I have seen allergy shots work. I didnβt think they would, but they did! But this was for respiratory symptoms, not anaphylactic.
Thanks - I had relief with allergy shots. Unfortunately - there is no such thing with a federally illegal substance. Perhaps it will be eventually with the dramatic increase in pot use. Was told itβs so much worse for people than standard cigarettes - but we will need to see the damage over years/decades before awareness kicks in.
I have no objection to people eating whatever they want (except the Epstein "jerky" mentioned by Jeff). I have a considerable amount of objection to the smoking of weed because the smoker is forcing everyone around them to smell it.
Keep your pleasures and addictions to yourself and don't make me unwillingly participate in them. That's all I ask.
Completely agree. And it really annoys me when smokers are completely dismissive of any complaints. Also they tend to get really hostile when you say anything negative about it π
My kids smoked weed, their mommy dearest started them at 12 years old. I gave it up at about 18, for one itβs tough to play harmonica when you have cotton mouth,and at the level I was playing at, failure wasnβt an option. But I married a lovely woman, who had a five year old boy. Then we had one of our own. Unbeknownst to me, she was getting high with them both. They are now 42 and 55. Both, stopped maturing at about 12 years. So keep eating edibles, and remain where you are, dumbass.
What a sad story to live through! I too have witnessed the damage heavy weed use can do to teens. If youβd posted without the last sentence, I would have given it a βlikeβ. Your truth doesnβt have to negate anotherβs. Name calling is never helpful.
And that is what is wrong with America right there. Everything is permissible as long as you don't judge. Reminds me of the "flower children" of the '60s when I was a teen... "Free Love". No ethical structure. No morality. No accountability to a higher law. Just don't judge me. It's no coincidence that the '60s was the peak of America culturally. From that point, America has done nothing culturally except to slide into self-serving platitudes and debauchery.
Both America and Europe are now awash in dope and emotional/mental immaturity. You cannot go anywhere in a city without smelling the dope. Young children are conditioned from the earliest ages to view promiscuity and drug use as not only normal but acceptable.
Is it any wonder that as a people we are finding ourselves being subjugated and culled... without protest? We are being destroyed from within.
One of the primary historical weapons of war used to conquer people and culture has been drugs and alcohol. The USG waged war on the American tribes and the primary weapon used to destroy them was alcohol. Drugs have been and are being used across the globe as a primary weapon of war.
And we are in a war. The drugs flooding into this country like a fire hose is a direct attack upon the American culture, which up until 50 years ago, was based on Christianity. Make no mistake. We are in a war and we are being attacked on all fronts.
The American culture is being destroy right before our eyes... and we refuse to see it. The ongoing depopulation program is in the process of degrading our food supply to the point where it is now a very real threat of producing across the board famine in America and the world as a whole. Intoxicants, mass invasion, destruction of cultural norms, subversion of democratic political processes and destruction of 'law and order'... all of this is a kinetic war being waged on us... culturally and physically.
This is a very real war with very real enemies who mean to exterminate and subjugate us.
I discovered weed at 12. It didn't keep me from maturing, although in retrospect it may have slowed the process a bit. I overindulged during my teens, but over time it became a rarer indulgence, to the point where it's extremely rare these days - and I'm 63.
A beer, a glass of wine, a little single malt, a hit to relax and defocus - everything in moderation. "Just Say Maybe" is a lot easier than always saying No, and makes choices more conscious. Shall I imbibe, and what would it help or hinder, do I have responsibilities that will be affected, will it affect my ability to be present around the people I care about?
Hey, everyone needs to "escape" once in a while. As long as it doesn't become a habit or a pattern, a little escapism is great. There are plenty of things worth escaping from in our modern world.
One could argue that unplugging from email, social media, online streaming, whatever, is escapism - if one were to assume that all of this "plugging in" is reality. I went without TV for the first two years of my marriage, and got a lot of great work done on my young self and our relationship. We only "plugged back in" because our cable was free and my uncle died and left me his "huge" 27-inch TV. We wanted to catch up on all the Star Trek shows our friends were into. And there it was: the slippery slope. This was all before the arrival of the Web, mind you. We were so young and innocent, we thought we were being "informed" by the news.
Going camping or even just taking a day hike is escapism, if you think that all of THIS is the real world. But when I go outside and feel the sun on my skin, play with my pets in the grass, have direct experience with the planet in all of its myriad splendors - that doesn't feel like escape, unless it's escape from a mental prison that's been constructed around us.
Since we can only experience the world around us through our senses (which are faulty) and process that input through our brains (which are faulty), I'm not entirely sure we can EVER lay claim to "real" experiences, anyway. But staring at screens ain't it - I definitely know that much.
I just canβt do that, high. Maybe weed has a more profound effect on me than others, but I notice it with my bandmates, they think theyβre playing better, but in reality,they make stupid mistakes, are never nearly as good on solos as they are when they arenβt high. But you canβt say that. My old band we were together for 14 years. And the bassist and drummer were high from morning to night. The drummer was an incredible timekeeper, but the bassist was as rudimentary as a 12 year old, and we couldnβt get him to learn any new songs. I asked him once when he get straight, and he said he hadnβt not been high for twenty years. Sorry. Itβs not necessary.
PeeKaye, I agree. God set me free from alcohol addiction and I have not had a drink since 2001, about 2 weeks before 9/11 happened. I also thank God for legal medical marijuana.
Congratulations Margot, for making it through 9/11 and the crazy aftermath alcohol-free.
The day before 9/11 I saw an 18-year-old girl die in a terrible car accident right in front of me. I heard about the Twin Towers the next morning from a cashier in a supermarket, where I was buying flowers for a roadside marker (which I'd never done before) as a way to deal with the trauma I'd witnessed the previous morning. When I got to work, everyone was glued to radios and the internet, then we all got sent home. I took a couple of weeks off to get my head together - those two tragedies were a bit much to deal with back-to-back..
I can't say I dealt with it all alcohol-free, but I didn't become a drunk over it, either.
Thanks for sharing. Amazing that you can write this and I'm glad you did. Accepting the traumas we never can control makes us know how ungod like we really are...and it burts is an understatement and also a healing balm. God is good and His plans are righteous. Everyday I have to say this.
The Super Bowl is the biggest single day trafficking event worldwide. Imagine if there no more DEMAND for porn and prostitution? There would be no need to traffick women and girls. Just say βnoβ to porn.
Mr. Childers, great uderstanding. I don't refer to the Bible in responses to your writings normally. There are plenty of Bible quoters who follow you. But think about how things are unfolding - an assasination attempt that fails, and that saved person affects his own country and countries around the world; an underlying global evil is identified and, slowly, the veil is torn and the maggots appear. Little by little, evil is overcome by good - and there is a lot more good in the world than evil. The reference is the story of the battle of Jericho. There it was the Israelites; here it is the good people in our Congress, FBI, et al. The Israelits were marching and singing songs praising God. We are having hearings that gain national and world recognition. Not might, but words, brought down the walls of the highly fortified city. And words of truth will eventually bring down this fortifed city and all its demonized people, the Epstein Empire.
It is unfortunate however how many times the Israelites betrayed God with Baal, Moloch and performed child sacrifice themselves. I was horrified to learn this as I am going through the Old Testament. But in your example, the walls coming down is one of the more uplifting stories in the Bible.
No, silly, that the bad guys lose. As to child sacrifice, give me the gun and bring those who would harm children to me. Let the blood of the vile be on my head that I may serve the Lord as his lion.
Abiding Dude, let me say only this, I have read the Bible, cover to cover, more than once. I know the Old Testament from the New Testament, and what those words mean. I also know that I am pretty good at reading things and interpreting them on my own, and if I miss understand something and speak incorrectly about it, it's on me, not someone else. I also know there are a number of things in the Bible that are impossible for me to understand or explain - Numbers 31, and 2 Samuel 11:14β17, are two examples. Why God took such vengeance on the Midianites ( acommand the Israelites did not follow through, and paid a heavy price for themselves), or why He allowed David to set up the death of Uriah so that David could commit a carnal sin (one which David paid for with the death of his son from Bathsheba) are a very large and a very small mystery I hope to understand, if not in this life, then the next. I also wonder why 6 million of God's chosen people, the Jews, were killed in the Holocaust, and God allowed it. There is much I don't understand from the ancient past and the recent past. But there are things that I do understand - Faith, Forgiveness, Love, Friendship, Hope, a Divinity greater than anything I can know or understand. I beleive in those things. All I can do is the best I can do. That will have to be enough, and I am okay with that.
Trump has had the goods on Epstein the whole time. Can you now see another example of why the American Communist Democrats hate him and have lost their minds. Grab the popcorn, itβs going to be good.
If you think this Epstein case isnβt connected to the communist democrats trying to put Trump behind bars for 500 years think again. They had the files! The raid on MaraLago was an attempt to silence him also. Besides being shot in the ear letβs hope prosecuting all of these child rapists is another Devine reason why DJT is in the White House.
Keep praying for him & his team ππ
Each of us must take up the mantle of prayer. While I may not be in any position to assist, I can and should pray! Ultimately we are watching the unfolding of a plan of Godβs own. Jeff reverenced the book of revelations and I cannot fathom what chapter we are watching but we are seeing a whole story unfurl in front of us. Please pray!
Beautifully stated.
We are in the embrace of the Infinitely Loving Father ... prayer is just what I need to remind myself of it

Wonderful! Iβm doing a daily phone alarm for 8:50 p.m. right now-thatβs so I can drop whatever Iβm doing and prepare my heart and mind to pray at 9:00.
Thatβs what we do.
We thank Him that He has revealed Himself and His Name, for His Name to be hallowed.
Hubs prays for the nation and our leaders, and that our nation would repentβ¦β¦for the protection and that our President, his family and his administration and their families would be divinely protected and for revival to begin in the Oval Office.
I continue the prayer, praying for pastors, teachers to repent and turn 180Β°, returning to the Lord, Most High, and for our families. That revival would sweep across our nation like a tsunami. We then pray for the peace of Jerusalem and the salvation of Judah AND for the House of Israel, wherever they are, all over the world. And that the tsunami would also reach the shores of all nations.
That His Kingdom come and His Will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
We thank Him for His provision and we ask that He cause those in the kingdom of darkness to turn on each other and begin to wage war amongst themselves.
It is amazing to me what happens when we turn and repent. He has driven us to our knees.
Very good!

I used to watch the Grammy awards, just to see what artist had created something fine enough to shine. Then 2021 came along: Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion performed "WAP", featuring a giant stiletto heel and a massive bed. WAP was short for "Wet Ass *****". The two "artists" simulated sex acts onstage. I do not recognize our country's current culture, if you can call it that.

Yes! A prayer multiplier. π
Prayer has to be a constant in our lives regardless of the events in all our lives whether personal, social, political etc. praying does not in any way relieve us of our responsibility to address these situations. I might be wrong in the following...seems there was a line from the movie My Fair Lady (in the best cockney accent): " The Lord 'elps dem wot 'elps dem selves".
Who said it did? But taking on these situations without prayer is likely like building a house on sand.
This notion that prayer warriors are irresponsible is very irksome to me.
Itβs some kind of attack of discouragement it seems to me.
Also, try the Hallow app - so popular and encourages daily prayer.
Great point. Truth Seeker might be in a bad mood or knows specific people who sit on their hands. Usually thatβs the case with remarks like that.
Speaking of praying, I always fall to the Our Father and am limited to have others memorized. Suggestions?
The Our Father prayed sincerely covers a lot of territory. Iβm Catholic and try to pray the Rosary every day. Then I offer it up to a loose βagendaβ list I go through that addresses the concerns of the day.

*persecuted Christians throughout the world
*pathetic ones of my circle (sick, distressed)
*Israel and Jerusalem
*America (leaders, issues)
*My family (provide, protect, bring us all into Heaven)

you are pointing out an obvious truth missed by many, who prefer the sit on hands approach with good intention
Who? Who does that? People addicted to charlatan preachers?
That doesnβt begin to describe sincere faithful Christians.

Many are sincere but have been deceived. The question is whether

Trumpβs DOJ does not have the resources to take down the Epstein cabal at same time as holding the 2020 Election Steal cabal and Government Fraud cabal accountable. The evil cabals will just wait Trump out. Perhaps itβs time to declare a National Emergency and use Military Tribunals.
This is a very insightful comment. DOJ insiders have said they don't have the resources to prosecute all the fraud in Minnesota, much less NY, IL, and CA - where the real fraud is. There's no way they have the resources to prosecute all that AND all the 2020 election fraud and everyone in Epstein's pedo ring. But, PROSECUTE SOMEONE!
It is a dilemma and as much as we need the 2020 election examined I believe the first priority is the Epstein circle of friends in our institutions. Bring them down and the fraud will also be brought down. It can't be happening at such scale that we suspect without the aid of those same "global elites".
Of course we could shut down all the government funds going to NGOs and pour it into DOJ and Border Control.
Sounds so simple doesnβt it? Think about the hoardes of uglies on the battlefield in the Lord of the Rings trilogy. The Deep State has had plenty of time to erect a multitude of defenses against all actions the good guys take. Complex, complicated spiritual battles going on at every turn.
Yeah it is not simple but you have to pick the biggest target dont you? Before they whittle you down.
Because they have well, most of the levers, and they even have people reputedly on this side clamoring for heads when wh have to get them in all the legal ways to make it stick.
I'm not saying don't harrie them from all side to wear them down, do that by all means. Call them out.
Read The Art of War to understand the present approach.
Is it because the nomination approvals are being held up?
Speaking of multipliers; I would love to see Speaker Johnson (202)225-4000) and Senate Majority Leader (202-224-2321) John Thuneβs voicemail boxes be full everyday with at least the simple message; βgive President Trump what he needs for the fight. Thatβs what we voted for.β
Not just voicemails. Flood their social media pages. Give them so many @'s that they can't see anything else in their feeds.
Btw, President Trump shared a tweet about the eight RINOs holding up the SAVE Act. We need to be blasting them as well.
Excellent point! I donβt seem to have time for social media and Iβm not good at it, but for those who are, I hope they make it happen.

one of the ways political power is built is by creating a patronage network. Trump needs to find and hire as many conservative attorneys as he can to staff the DOJ and other agencies needed to prosecute these cases. It's a win/win situation.
I think Military Tribunals are what this is leading towards. There's too much here to handle in the regular justice system, and as cathartic as it would be for us, mob justice would be too messy and spiritually unhealthy.
β¦also, who can trust any of these appointed Lefty Judges? We have seen them in action and itβs NOT pretty. Military sounds right.

Starsky, right on!
No pardon for Maxwell by Trump. This will only pollute the waters more, IMO. Because whatever Ghislaine says thereafter would be interpreted as βmade upβ by too many.
OR, she would lie like the mangy rug she is and say President Trump was guilty and the demons would run with it.
I donβt trust her to tell the truth at all.
Please educate me....how could this be handled by a military court? These people, as despicable as they are, all have rights, due process and so on. Most of these people are civilians.
The trafficking, heinous as it is, is actually the lesser issue here. The web that connects all of these players is treason. They've all been actively working to overthrow legitimately elected officials and perform color revolutions globally. That's above the DOJ's pay grade.
Definition of Unlawful Enemy Combatant: Under the Military Commissions Act of 2006 (MCA), this includes individuals who have engaged in hostilities or purposefully and materially supported hostilities against the U.S., including those determined to be such by a Combatant Status Review Tribunal (CSRT).
I've been hearing on here that it is getting so large that it is becoming a national security issue; that's where I could see military tribunals possibly coming into play.
I am praying all the degenerate pedos and any facilitators are rendered as powerless eunuchs. God is sovereign.
Yes. Weβre in complex, complicated spiritual warfare here. Very prayerful, careful analysis is called for and there are no simple solutions.

He and his administration cannot.
There is only ONE WHO can.
Yes!
Well, you have a point but the rabid prosecutions of Jan 6th marchers is an example of how to approach this, if military tribunals are not quite the ticket.
If only so many of the attorney generals and federal judges hadnβt been captured or appointed by the left. Theyβre not going to prosecute and sentence their teammates.
massive roundups, quick prosecutions, then...the ultimate price
the "rights" are akin to excuses compared to the heinous crimes to include treason and pedophilia
I don't see how they can tie pedophilia with treason....maybe in cases where the pedophile was ensnared with black mail resulting in some sort of treasonous action (coughing up secrets). We can't set a president of suspending people's constitutional rights because they are despicable. According to "Hitlery" Clinton, all of us are despicable.
Was not suggesting the crimes are necessarily tied together although they often are. Treason is punishable by execution. The worst Pedos torture, kill, and eat children. That is not hyperbolic.
Quoting H Clinton?? could not think of a worse child tafficing witch
True, but what I've been hearing is that this whole thing is getting bigger by the minute and involving enough higher-ups that it is becoming a national security issue. That's where I could see military tribunals coming into play. And not just here in the US. Look at Starmer, for example. Those around him hip deep in it. And the crown princess in Norway.
Donald, "Trust The Plan". There is a plan to deal with that.
Much as we wish it werenβt the case; If only so many of the attorney generals and federal judges hadnβt been captured or appointed by the left. Theyβre not going to prosecute and sentence their teammates.
We are in very dark realization times, however the truth is surfacing many times faster than ever before. As you know this is ultimately a war of the spirit. The good guys win...
Classify them as enemy combatants.

YourGalapagos.., "Trust The Plan".
You're like the 17th person to say that to me. ;)
You're assuming that the military tribunals would be any less corrupt or subject to political interference. Do keep in mind that in a military that's still dealing with the Biden Crime Syndicate legacy with all of those mentally unbalanced trans appointments, this is absolutely unlikely to be so.
In fact, I'd read articles pre-Trump that affirmed that they are capable of corruption and very much subject to political influence. I haven't had the time to check if/how that's changing since he took office.
That's a point I've considered, but I've got a few observations that show the military vastly prefers President Trump to Biden:
1. All of the branches have reported exceeding their recruitment goals last year. The MSM wants to paint this as people looking for a steady job in an unsteady economy, but true reason is President Trump and Pete Hegseth are bringing the military back to being a force worth fighting in. The kids joining actually want to represent this nation.
2. This is anecdotal: I live in a military town and see military of all ages and rank. The kids who have been joining up after DJT took office are both physically, mentally, and spiritually better off than the recruits I was seeing during the Biden installation.
3. The most important: There is no way President Trump could have pulled off arresting Maduro the way he did without a military that had his back. This operation was planned for the better part of a year completely in secret. No one leaked. No one. That's the sign of a military that trusts its leader and wants to do right.
What are they going to do if the next POTUS is a democrat?
Thatβs why the midterms are so important! We must codify in law thru congress all of the executive orders Trump had used to get this far, and vote in one day elections with paper ballots and photo voter ID thru the SAFE Act. The senate head, Thune, is not to be relied on IMO, I believe heβs a RINO at best, deep state even worse.
Iβve been waiting for mob justice for a lot of these people but apparently only Hillary knows how to make that happen.
I'm willing to settle for mob justice at this point.
That is the real issue. They have flooded the zone with more evil than can be handled by one man in two years. The real test is whether the team he has assembled can stick together and the American people can stay focused. Past history is not encouraging on either count; yet I remain encouraged.
The Art of War- first principle is DAO- Unity gives courage and determination to face adversity and even death without fear.
Might mean some of us need to give our General space to fight and not second guess his every move. As if we were so much more qualified.
As we watch every member of his cabinet attacked from all angles. π€¬
Only the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob can do what needs to be done. His righteous judgement is unassailable.
Heβs the One we should be calling on day and night, that HIS Kingdom come, HIS Will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
excellent idea Jpeach! Fast and Furious, keep the other side unbalanced and take them down.
I think he will do it β¦ donβt you? Trump will do it. Letβs sit tight
I pray so.
Ha me too.
Just start with Bill Gates. Do people not realize that he is still out there scheming to take out humanity?
Why are we sitting around speculating about how to take down an entire edifice when that one man is capable of so much evil and is supremely liable on this Epstein issue?
If we can't focus on taking him down before he releases another bioweapon, it doesn't say much for our self-preservation instincts.

What is the Military preferred manner of execution? Bette Pete could do whatever is necessary.
Great idea!! Letβs GO!! Give Ghislaine immunity and then arrest them one by one!!
it would help if we had an attorney general that was not a deep state operative, IMO. Bondi has been so worthless!
Military tribunals do not need to be public.
Chop, rumor has it that military trials have been going on for quite some time, based on thousands of sealed indictments by Jeff sessions and Federal prosecutor Huber. They will have been recorded.
π―!
Speaking of Military Tribunals I seem to recall that during Trump's first presidency there were changes to the JAG laws about prosecution of elected officials. Grok told me this and there seems to be some emphasis on sexual crimes:
Major Reforms Since 2016
The most substantial overhaul came from the Military Justice Act of 2016 (part of the National Defense Authorization Act for FY2017), which took effect on January 1, 2019. This represented the most significant update to the UCMJ since the 1980s, modernizing the system to align more closely with civilian criminal justice practices while addressing issues like sexual assault cases.
Key changes from the 2016 Act (effective 2019) included:
Modernizing definitions of offenses and adjusting maximum penalties.
Standardizing court-martial panel (jury) sizes.
Creating new offenses (e.g., retaliation for reporting crimes, certain computer crimes, fraudulent use of credit/debit cards).
Expanding judge-alone sentencing in some cases.
Increasing transparency (e.g., public access to many court-martial documents).
Broadening appeal opportunities for convicted service members.
Subsequent National Defense Authorization Acts (NDAAs) built on this, driven partly by concerns over sexual assault, harassment, and command influence in prosecutions:
FY2022 NDAA (effective around 2022β2023): Established the Office of Special Trial Counsel (OSTC) in each service, removing commanders' authority to decide on prosecuting "covered offenses" (e.g., sexual assault, domestic violence) and giving independent special trial counsel (certified JAG prosecutors) exclusive prosecutorial discretion. This aimed to reduce potential bias or undue command influence.
FY2023 NDAA: Added further refinements, such as random selection of court-martial members (to enhance impartiality), expanded jurisdiction in some areas, and made sexual harassment a standalone offense under Article 134.
Ongoing updates to the Manual for Courts-Martial (MCM) via presidential executive orders (e.g., 2023 and 2024 editions) implemented these statutory changes, including sentencing parameters/criteria for uniformity, modified appellate processes, and related procedural rules.
A 2024 Comprehensive Review by the Military Justice Review Panel assessed these post-2016 changes, noting their rapid pace required significant training and adaptation for JAGs and the services, while emphasizing ongoing needs for compliance and evaluation.
Because Bondi is a joke.
@Johnny- I AM a little disappointed in her as well as Patel.
Johnny and Kitty.....Hard to tell. They were the inheritors a DOJ run by 2 Obama terms, a Trump term where he was so behind the eight ball ,and a Biden term. Essentially a DOJ worse than the Wild West in its heyday. AND that does not even speak about the FBI. How you inherit that and change it all in ONE Year???? Really the abuse and malfeasance at DOJ has been there for years and years and decades.
your assessment is accurate, and not an attempt to excuse
Hang on and expect great things people.
My theory on Patel is that he truly meant well and wanted to be a battering ram, so the dark side compromised him as quickly as possible.
I've been leery of Bondi since her part in the Trayvon Martin debacle that helped set race relations back.
@ Ohhhh Johnny- No. You are.
I agree! Not just Epstein, but I think he probably knows a lot of things about a lot of people that they donβt want to get out.
Obviously!!
Our Lord has His Hand in this bringing down the evil. The worst part of all this are the satanic rituals of child sacrifice have to be broadcast far and wide exposing all those that murdered and possibly ingested those babies. It is a foulness that God will not look away from. May God's sunshine pierce the dark veil of these demonic abominations and bring severe punishment to those involved. And may Ghislaine who is pleading the 5th pay the ultimate price for her depravity....a slow heinous and painful death.
As I read this a.m.'s post, I mused about those public school principals who accepted the creation of after-school Satan clubs. Wonder if they are currently re-thinking their "wisdom". Wonder if those principals may be currently considering lawyering up.
Never heard about that but what sickness that is. I hope they are lawyering up and I hope they fail. What I would do to them I cannot say here but you mess with kids and you are horizontal.
@Via- they had to or they would have been sued for discrimination.
We're each required to take a stand, at some point in our lives, regardless of consequences. That woud've been theirs.
Well, goodness, I know that. I was a teacher when that stuff came up.
Well....aren't we back to the Mayans and their child sacrifices in which victims were often eaten by elites?
Just when you imagined that human culture was different after 6000 years... Humanity isn't.
Nothing new under the sunβ¦
Hmm... not sure it's "us" though.
The human animal hasn't changed since man stood up on two legs...
it is even older, but yes the Mayan example is well known
May I suggest an alternative....that we pray that in the fullness of time we will meet Ghislaine in heaven? God still loves her.
Jesus taught that we should pray for our enemies.
"But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you." Matthew 5:44
I'm praying for all of them to go straight to hell!
Boom!
Some crimes are so heinous that there is no redemtion. However banal you might have thought GM was, its much much worse.
That quote does not apply to GM
He can't save her if she doesn't ask.
The apostle Paul did not ask. God chose him, not the other way around.
And Saul repented, learned, and was obedient. He also carried a punishment for his prior life of persecuting God's chosen to his death.
He did repent. He knew the Word.
David is to suffer for his own sins and eventually become exalted, from what I understand.
I have no desire to meet someone on earth or in Heaven who most likely sacrificed babies and ingested some of their anatomy. Are you kidding me? I refuse to believe that God can love that demon in human form. But if anyone can, He can.
If you want to spend Eternity with her, go for it. I would then prefer to work for God in some capacity outside of Heaven if that is possible.
I sm certain some of these creeps ask for forgiveness on their deathbeds. God will sort them out.
Only God knows if their intent was to escape consequences. I donβt believe he will accept them into heaven if that was their motivator
HE knows what is truly in their hearts regardless of what words come from their mouths. They will be judged by what is in their hearts.
I have bad news for you: ALL sin is equal in God's eyes, and forgivable, but one: blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. Her sins are no worse than yours, no matter how we feel about them. To break even part of one commandment is to break them all, which is why we ALL need to be redeemed by Christ.
you are clueles, making the case that swiping a candy bar is "equivalent" to torturing, killing, and eating babies
Worse that wins the award for stupidest comment posted
Read Romans 1:18-32.
At some point His wrath will be poured out on those wretched beings who refuse to repent.
Disagree.
Check out 1 John 16-17.
the word de sire is worthy of unpacking, it literally translates into "of the father" People are virtue verse signalling. There is some low level interpretation being posted.
you have no concerns, whomever suggested that GM will be in heaven is a fool.
George, what you wrote: "it is a hard saying..." Maybe not an "alternative," but an accessory? He has saved worse. ...than even me.
But there does come a time apparently, in the end when Yehovahβs wrath is releasedβ¦..He knows mankindβs hearts, He knows when people have given themselves completely over to demons.
Romans 1
βFor the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men. In unrighteousness they suppress the truth, because what can be known about God is plain to themβfor God has shown it to them. His invisible attributesβHis eternal power and His divine natureβhave been clearly seen ever since the creation of the world, being understood through the things that have been made. So people are without excuseβ for even though they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God or give Him thanks. Instead, their thinking became futile, and their senseless hearts were made dark. Claiming to be wise, they became fools. They exchanged the glory of the immortal God for an image in the form of mortal man and birds and four-footed beasts and creeping things. Therefore God gave them over in the evil desires of their hearts to impurity, to dishonor their bodies with one another. They traded the truth of God for a lie and worshiped and served the creation rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. For this reason God gave them up to shameful passions. Even their women exchanged natural relations for what is against nature. Likewise the men abandoned natural relations with women and were burning with passion toward one anotherβmen committing shameful acts with other men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error. And just as they did not see fit to recognize God, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what is not fitting. They became filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents. They are foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless. Though they know Godβs righteous decreeβthat those who practice such things deserve deathβthey not only do them but also approve of others who practice the same.β

not in my Heaven
Did you make heaven?! Did you just lie?
Just bc her god will forgive her doesn't mean the rest of us have to. We are after all, imperfect humans.
That's your own reality which isn't true.
Perhaps, the Unites States of America has become so evil. so compromised, that our God, the God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob , will remove His hand of protection and allow us to be punished by foreign forces.
He has allowed us 250 years to do His will, repent when we don't, and we did pretty good for a while. But the last 100 years, probably more, haven't been so stelar. There is no mention of a united state, a power from the West, that will stand by Israel when it is attacked as depicted in Ezekiel 38-39. This is by design, to show the world that Israels' strength and power comes from God alone.
The clock is running down, are we ready? Exciting times ahead. Humbly, I live like His return is tomorrow, fight like His return is another 100 years away.
The rest of us repent and that counts. I think of Lot and Sodom. We are way more than 50 righteous so I do not believe God will punish us.
Scriptures to ponder considering the "wrath to come":
Rev. 3:10
Dan. 9:24-27, Dan. 12(!)
1 Thes. 1:10, 3:13, 4:13-18, 5:9, 11
2 Thes. 2:1-8
Heb. 9:28
1 Cor. 15:51-52
Titus 2:13
...and John 14:1-3
Why can't I see this comment by Aegeandreams? It says age restricted content. I click verify age and nothing happens.
Iβm on iPhone app and nothing is being restricted for me
Same.
I can see it.
Now I can read it! Thatβs so weird.
Karmy, you might have a restriction set on your phone for certain content.
Itβs on my computer as well. Even if I take off the vpn. π€·ββοΈ
I'm getting an "age restricted content" block on your comment, even though my VPN and location are both in the United States. That must be some doozy in there.
This is what I wrote and I can't imagine this deserves blockage.
Our Lord has His Hand in this bringing down the evil. The worst part of all this are the satanic rituals of child sacrifice have to be broadcast far and wide exposing all those that murdered and possibly ingested those babies. It is a foulness that God will not look away from. May God's sunshine pierce the dark veil of these demonic abominations and bring severe punishment to those involved. And may Ghislaine who is pleading the 5th pay the ultimate price for her depravity....a slow heinous and painful death.
It is absolutely disgusting that Substack would block that as "Age Restricted Content". The other 'stacks that Substack is blocking have the same message - they're calling out the criminals. It's almost as if Substack is using the Online "Safety" Act as a convenient cudgel for free speech, just like Facebook and YouTube.
Pretty disgusted with Substack right now.
My Brave browser on my Mac showed both of these identical posts from Aegean. . .
Could it be some entity OTHER than substack?
I'm not using Brave right now and I know it's Substack because they gave me a "learn more" message about working the with Online "Safety" Act. The principle of this is that Substack is purposely suppressing speech to accord with a "Safety" Act that is meant for censorship.
Agreed. If they become another squasher of speech, they are worthless.
I read it.
@Your- Whoa.......Seriously??
Yup. I'm getting this same "Age Restricted Content" with a couple other Substacks I read as well. Looks like Substack bent the knee to the Online "Safety" Act and are punishing people with VPNs while putting out a BS line about "keeping this a place for great culture". It's not even letting me verify my age to get around it.
@Your- is there a way to get ahold of Substack itself and say WTF?
I've just discovered this, so right now, I'm purposely sharing every comment I write here about Substack doing this to my notes. Either they'll feel some shame and back off, or they'll get annoyed and blast me off of this platform. Let's find out.
or, you could possibly have been "hacked". . .
It could be a technical issue with your VPN. I've been having issues with a VPN too. Other issues. Windows and all the AIs are not playing nice with the VPNs.
Epstein is power and people will do anything for power. From Bill Gates, to the Clinton, and even now, people will do anything for power: https://unorthodoxy.substack.com/p/franklins-epstein-files-a-guide-to
And we declare that just as Korach was swallowed by the earth along with all that was hid when he attempted to take over, so will God avenge his little ones.
Epstein wasn't an anomaly or unique in his services and connections, he was just VERY, VERY GOOD at it. THIS scale and scope of child abuse, trafficking, and compromising of public officials (and more easily; simply electing and appointing of predators) has been going on since the Progressive-Occultists were first flexing their collective takeover of US and all its institutions of education, religion, and New Dealing expansions of government. The intentional Cult-mind control through pop-culture and education at an industrial scale has made its impact. The mainstreaming of pornography and violence as entertainment, promotion of homosexualism as being mainstream and normal, vaccining of kids into autism and behavioral issues, isolating and targeting them as Transgenders, pushing kids to illicit drug use and mass prescriptive drugs for boys, psychological tormenting of girls, radicalizing and inducing kids to violence, the tens of thousands of missing and exploited-trafficked kids each year, fractured families, teachers, counsellors, pastors and priests viewed as the worst sort of predators in society. Also recall the Obama-UN presided wave of Unaccompanied Refugee Minors that flooded out from Middle East into Western nations and the uniform regs on how to help settle and support them all was pre-prepared and ready to fully implement. This isn't Libertarianism or Freedom, this is Satanic Anarchism, Wickedness, and Enslavement.
WP, Yes, all of that - causing chaos and disorientation throughout the nation - the stated goal of the WHO/WEF: to dissolve national identification. Thus achieving a weakened citizenry, the globalists intend to move in and take over America.
Our collective cognitive dissonance allowed this level of evil to persist. It is past time to drain the swamp.
Would be interesting to see if Savannah Guthrie knows something or was about to come forward with some truth about these files. I canβt quite make sense of all the coverage of her motherβs disappearance.
There is no way Savanah would be coming forward with any truth if it villainizes the left. She doesnβt have the character to do what is right.
You are probably right. But still why so much coverage.
Idk but itβs disturbing and suspect that they have it dominating every news program, even on Fox, who typically balance both sides of an issue even if we donβt like it. But even Fox is overkill. I think maybe itβs because they donβt want to be caught in βlacking compassionβ if indeed whatβs going on is real and authentic. Kind of like CYA ahead of time until there is indisputable evidence otherwise?
Savanah and her siblingβs statements are too weird for me. I laughed when last night Fox kept saying the latest wasnβt scripted. Oh yes it was!! βShe was taken and we donβt know where.β Well duh. π€¦πΌββοΈ Why even say that?
Just because she wasnβt reading from a piece of paper in her hands doesnβt mean itβs not scripted. π
The whole thing is really, really weird. We all feel it in our gut but because we have no evidence or proof we have to be careful how we come off. But I always trust my gut instincts. And since so many of us are having those exact same instincts, that tells me thereβs a spiritual movement in our souls triggering these alarms.
However, thereβs an outside chance itβs all legit and Savanah is just a captured, leftist drama queen that canβt get out from her scripted bubble even when she should.
π
I think itβs just βSquirrel!β.
agree.
Fox is swamping the coverage on this. . . seems way overboard.
Child rape has no statute of limitations, I believe the same is true for child trafficking.
Exactly right. Have you seen the pics of Epstein in Israel with security?
Kathleen, I saw it but itβs so difficult to distinguish real from AI.
So true, how will we ever distinguish real from fake now?
Yeah, it's all making sense now.
I just listened to Lara Logan's Going Rogue podcast with Svetlna Lokhova (the "russian spy" at the center of Russia gate and more - except she's a British citizen), it is angering and depressing at the same time. That so many people could - literally - commit treason and everyone just shrugs is potentially catastrophic to this country.
It's a three hour podcast but ABSOLUTELY worth a listen. Ms. Lokhova has highly in depth knowledge of the far ranging conspiracy to depose Trump. And yes, it does go all the way up to Obama, and documents prove it. Brennan (and Clapper, Comey, and others) are in real danger.
If this goes to trials, Trump will have a unique opportunity to unite the country. He could offer a sort of "truth and reconciliation" platform where those involved plead guilty to their treasonous actions, accept a felony conviction, with Trump then offering clemency (not a pardon). Obama is probably untouchable since he has presidential immunity
(you know, that think lefties complained so loudly about).
https://laralogan.com/episode/john-brennan-facing-indictment-with-svetlana-lokhova-ep-58-going-rogue-with-lara-logan/
Oddly enough, the Mar-a-Lago raid means the grand juries on this matter and any succeeding trials would be held in Florida, not DC where Trump would get hostile judges and juries. Cases in Florida would likely get assigned to Judge Aileen Cannon - who the left hates almost as much as they hate Trump.
Absolutely agree! I did not think of this! But so right. Esp if Trump was one of the first to know what he was up to!!
"Billionaire Wexner owned Victoriaβs Secret and seems to have given Epstein his start (testifies Feb. 18). "
Didn't Ryan Routh's ex wife have a pretty high level job with Victoria's Secret?
Actually she was his wife at the time of the attempted assassination, Kathleen Shaffer, and our very own Jeff Childers talked about her job at a CIA front company:
https://www.coffeeandcovid.com/p/maximized-thursday-september-19-2024
https://x.com/FrauHodl/status/1835779817314439318
She was a district manager and says here she had been laid off, supposedly.

The weaponized agents were looking for specific files. They failed miserably as the files were not there. Much speculation on what exact files. At this late date we are winning bigly, and the country most definitely supports DJT's efforts.
The insanity of the radical left, their endless grifting exposed, to include attempts to overthrow the Gubmit and destroy this country have also failed. They remain dangerous but have lost control.
Good morning, C&Cers. Iβve thought for awhile that Trump was going to turn out to be Batman in this whole Epstein deal. He spoke about it once a little while ago while gaggling with the press on AF1 and you could sense his animosity toward Epstein and knowing Trump, Iβm guessing he never forgot that Epstein βstoleβ a very young Virginia Guiffre from a safe job at a Trump golf course spa and trafficked her to the rich and famous, almost rubbing his nose in it. I wonder sometimes if the Epstein thing (at its beginning) was actually where destroying the swamp became a personal issue for Trump.
Iβve had this thought too, not that the media would ever credit him. Theyβre way too bought into the βTrump is hitlerβ narrative to ever admit it.β Will be interesting to see what the history books say. I hope my great grandkids get to ask me about this period of time for a school project when Iβm 90, like I did about the great depression and WWII with my grandparents.
Your comment about the media and βTrump is Hitlerβ nonsense β¦ made me think how the media is completely blind to what is happening under its nose. Trump is working swiftly and diligently and accomplishing something we cannot yet see. Ultimately, only God Himself can pull off such a large fete and Trump is only His chosen tool β¦ I am praying for the Lordβs continued favor for our country. All of the remnant β¦ PRAY!
Oh the media is not blind! They know!!
There are none so blind as those who will not see. The media does not want to see because the vast majority of "journalists" are nothing less than propaganda tools.
Yesterday I listened to the complete DJT speech at the prayer breakfast last week. Enlightening.
Oh I agree that the rank and file media are clueless to what is really going on...the young people have to break the indoctrinated thinking to see the reality...
Actually I think the media are actively contributing to the evil thatβs going on.
There is no way on God's little green earth the media (not necessarily the "journalists" but the CEOs) are not complicit in the Epstein debaucle. In fact they are likely co-conspirators. We have sensed for years that the press is in someone's pocket. I think it likely it was Epstein's. But to me the larger question is who's pocket Epstein was in. I think Daddy's girl Maxwell. But who did she serve? The Mossad? The CIA? MI6? All of the above? Is there an organization or collaberation at play that makes the UN look like a retarded step-child?
Promethean Action is very good at explaining the apparatus. Itβs all interconnected to the City of London, and Israel is a construct of that elite group. As I understand it.
Possibly all the above but I am convinced Mossad and the CIA.
Do not excuse MI6. Ghislaine Maxwell acknowledged her father's role therein. I believe the CIA plays a role but my instinct is they are not the controlling interest. Maybe Mossad. But my money is on MI6. Or possibly the Russians. Does the KGB still exist?
Yes, open mind always as the govts of the world are deceitful.
Not just the media, but all the people with TDS refuse to believe that Trump is wearing a white hat in this matter. Just look at all the pathetic comments on X and elsewhere of people trying to twist the story of Trump contacting the police as something sinister.
They will never give up!
No use expecting better of them. Theyβre incapable.
He knows he will never get any credit with the MSM and I donβt think he cares. I think he is ready to kick ass and take names. Weβre already getting the names.
Depends on who writes the history books.
So true... here's a great example:
https://www.unz.com/runz/why-everything-you-know-about-world-war-ii-is-wrong/
Yes! Same
All history books written by the same folks.
History books are written by the people who win whatever battle is happening. This one could still go either way. I know what Iβm praying for.
Winston Churchill said βHistory shall be kind to me for I intend to write it.β And he did. When all we have believed in, all our lives, is shaken as badly as it is being shaken now, there is only one place we can stand firmly. With God.
The foundations control the story, create the battles, bankers capitalize.
OY VEH!!
The problem is the Media can't decide if Trump is Hitler or if he's senile. Both can't be true.
Good point!
I wonder if Epstein is really dead. If his net was as extensive as we are now finding out, it seems interesting that a βsomeoneβ ordered his death. (He didnβt kill himself).
Epstein likely had the largest network of nefarious fixers known to mankind. Springing him from jail and faking his death, would be a piece of pizza, I mean cake.
I have thought the same thingβ¦. A jail break!
π π€£ π
He's a waiter in a Caribbean resort....
;)
I do not believe he is dead.
A photo has recently surfaced purportedly of a long haired and bearded Jeffrey Epstein surrounded by security guards in Israel. The photo is discussed in this post.
https://reinettesenumsfoghornexpress.substack.com/p/the-monsters-are-real
I don't know if that photo is real or AI. But, his gaming account is active in Israel.
I read an account of a simple Greek islander on a small Greek island who noticed a yacht and some formally dressed people and went closer to the harbor to look when he saw a man there with a beard who he thought looked just like the photos of Epstein in the newspapers. π€·
Whoa Nelly! That's an interesting photo.
But is it Ai?
In the linked article, it states:
I ran the images through ChatGPT to assess whether they appeared AI-generated or manipulated. The analysis did not flag the images as AI. Instead, it suggested they resemble real photographs or video stills that have been selectively edited for anonymity.
Teeth rattling...earth shaking..."It's all of them." We're in the soup...
AI is quite amazing.
Look closely.
Epstein = Elvis?
Reportedly he was a big video gamer and his account remains active. From Israel.
Well, nothing would contribute more to faking your death than continuing to use your Fortnite account ππ
Fortnite.
Oh interesting indeed.
π³
A prison guard came out and said that there was a vehicle that came during the time of his alleged death that was never checked in or out.
I cannot believe that any of those involved would want to keep Epstein alive....they would be more interested in saving themselves and, to do that, best to get rid of the one person who knew all.
His gaming accounts are still active and someone is using them
Saw pictures of a man with long grey hair and beard walking the streets in Israel with body guards .. the post showed Epstein then and nowβ¦heβs alive.. never died that night..
This is not the first time Trump has worked with law enforcement. Back when he had his casino in Atlantic City, he and his brother, worked with the Feds with regard to organized crime.
Truth!
Personal issues are great motivators. Remember, Melania was a model and child trafficking is an issue she has taken on. Trump was also friends with JFK Jr.
I don't think Trump's "destroying of the swamp" BECAME a personal issue for Trump relevant to Virginia Guiffre. I think his want for destroying the swamp started much earlier.
But Trump's annihilation of the swamp relevant to the exposure of the Virginia Guiffre tragedy, is definitely the icing on the cake for him.
Or the straw that broke the camelβs back.
Absolutely.
Totally- it became personal for Trump
OR maybe he got involved in the Epstein investigation because he was forced to? For immunity??
Just sayin'...
Look at his malignant zionist controlled staff and Cabinet... do NOT be quick to assume anything.
"Billionaire Wexner owned Victoriaβs Secret and seems to have given Epstein his start (testifies Feb. 18). "
When I heard "Victoria's Secret" I remembered that Ryan Routh's wife Kathleen Shaffer had a pretty high level job with Victoria's Secret.
Jeff did a bit on her current job soon after the attempt: https://www.coffeeandcovid.com/p/maximized-thursday-september-19-2024
https://x.com/FrauHodl/status/1835779817314439318
She was a district manager and says here she had been laid off, supposedly.
I was just recently reading my kids the story of Joseph being sold into slavery in Egypt by his brothers, but years later being able to rescue them from famine. He says to them, βwhat you intended for evil, God intended for good.β Joseph had lived through literal slavery in a foreign nation, dead to his own family, falsely accused of rape and imprisoned for years.
There is nothing good about the Epstein debauchery BUT ironically, it may end up taking down a huge portion the pediphilic elite. Satan always thinks heβs got the upper hand. But God always wins.
GAW!
Have been studying Joseph the last 4 weeks. So much to learn about God using what someone meant for bad for good! πβοΈπ
I too think good can come from bad. Bad only wins when we wallow in it.
Or refuse to call it out
Putin called it out: Satanism in the west.
I parallels that of Johnny Gosch

The idea of dividing people to maintain power over them is as old as warfare itself. This is achieved by breaking up larger concentrations of power into smaller weaker pieces like what theyβve done to the American middle class. It involves sowing discord among adversaries to subjugate them with minimal effort. The deep state has gone so far as too divide families to maintain their power. Whatβs been done in Minnesota is just one example.
My Opinion on Relationships
& Marraige
My wife has a nephew who went through public schools. At the young age of 17 he came to live with us. Stephan was a different boy who certainly had very different goals and motivations than I. When he was in his senior year of high school his father packed up and left for Tennessee, leaving Stephan alone at their house that the bank would soon take. When he began to work with me he said he didnβt want to be paid, that he hated money. Of coarse I told him he had to be paid.
Stephan did everything he could to not grow up. He wanted to keep those childhood ways of life. Some days at the job I would be deep into work, trying to get the job moving and thinking of the best ways to make things go quicker and more efficiently, Iβd see Stephan daydreaming. I had an image of him in a big grassy field smelling wild flowers, certainly not thinking about his job. Stephan was much different than myself, in a way it made me sad having to break him away from his desire to stay in his childhood and move forward from child to a responsible self sufficient adult. It felt like 100 years had gone by since I had his mindset, I struggled with the idea of taking it from him. To this day Stephan in many ways hasnβt changed, I accept him and love him just the way he is.
We sometimes have to accept people for who they are. When we get into a relationship with someone itβs easy to think we have to make them into who we want them to be, especially our spouse, our children or the people close to us. One of the best lessons Iβve learned is people havenβt come into my life so I can make them just like me. God made us different on purpose. Different personalities, different strengths, different looks, weβre all at different maturity levels. The mistake we can make is we try to fit them into our mold. Itβs like we have them on our potters wheel, weβre trying to work out the lumps get rid of what we donβt like and get them all fixed up. The problem with this is weβre not the potter, God is. God is the one making and molding people. Really we canβt change anyone. We can encourage them, we can pray for them, we can lead by example, but only God can truly change a person. When someone doesnβt have our same strengths and weβre working overtime trying to make them just like us, all that does is frustrate us. It brings stress and tension into the relationship. Youβve got to give people room to be who God made them to be. God likes variety.
When I got married I first (unknowingly) tried to make my wife just like me. I thought what greater gift could I possibly give her than thatπ. I was very naive. The ironic thing is we are drawn to people that have strengths different from ours. My wife has different strengths than I do. She is outgoing, likes to talk to people, sheβs straight forward. One day at a wedding we attended an older woman asked her if she was hired as the party starter. Iβm much more quiet, I keep to myself, I never ask for help. I learned pretty quickly trying to make my strengths her strengths just caused problems. It dawned on me she doesnβt want to be just like me. I learned I was the one that needed to change.
Sometimes we get into relationships with someone and say wow I love your good qualities now I want you to have mine as well. The truth is no person has it all. The scripture talks about how we have to make allowances for peoples weaknesses. What would happen if we all would start accepting the people God put in our life and stop trying to change them. First we would have better relationships and second we wouldnβt live frustrated trying to make them into something that theyβre not. Give people the room to not be perfect. Instead of complaining about what we donβt like about a person try a different approach, start telling a person what you do like about them. People respond to praise a lot better than they respond to criticism.
Itβs amazing what people will do when you see the best in them, when you honor them, when you respect them, it not only strengthens the relationship but it will help that other person to rise higher. As you give encouragement, show honor, show respect they will continue to rise to the level that you pour into them. If you want to make your spouse, your children, your loved one a better person honor them in a greater way. Accept them for who they are. Give them your approval even if they donβt fit into your mold. You have tremendous power and influence into their lives. You can push them further with your honor your acceptance, your approval or you can withhold it and keep them back.
Too many people end a relationship because thereβs one main thing they donβt like about the person. They focus on what annoys them and magnify that they have too much of this or not enough of that. Theyβll go find somebody else that has a strength where that other person had a weakness. The problem is this new person has a weakness where the other person had a strength. You see weβre just moving things around. Itβs always going to come back to overlooking the weaknesses, seeing the best in them, accepting people for who they are. No one person can give you everything that you need. Youβve got to focus on their good qualities and not get frustrated on what they canβt give you.
Remember God is the potter. Donβt love them only if they meet your standard. Pour on the honor and you will not only find your relationship strengthened you will see the person in your life rise to new levels.
Just my opinion. J.Goodrich
I saw a psychology video one time. A teacher was told her students were special, all gifted. So she taught them as though they were gifted and special. It was all filmed and analyzed. The students were the opposite of gifted. All were poor students. Some had family issues and some were just a little slow. A miracle happened. The students responded to the teacher and performed as if they were gifted. All of them.
I had heard a similar story where they told the teachers they were gifted and given students to see if they could improve the students learning. At the same time the students were told they had been picked because of their learning ability. In the end both the students and the teachers raised their abilities to learn and to teach 2 fold. Itβs truly amazing what encouragement, respect and honor people.
What is in peopleβs mindsets can make all of the difference!
Yes! That includes politics/enemies/Life...and oneself. "...in the eye of the beholder." What we are willing to see = is our Reality.
βWhen I got married I first (unknowingly) tried to make my wife just like meβ.
There is an old saying: A woman marries a man in order to change him. A man marries a woman hoping she never changes.
Perhaps you were ahead of your time. π
I think the saying about women never changing refers to her weight, youth and wrinkles π
But of course! We are talking about the male species here!
π
Karen, LOL. probably true.
Regarding your nephew... Sounds as if the "green valley" daydreams were a survival mechanism! (who leaves their kid in the house the bank is going to repossess? My brother has his grandson living with him - his son my nephew, died from MRSA - caused by ventilator intubation - 2021! I think my meaning is clear - my nephews death was preventable!
To finish the story, my nephew's divorced wife decided she wanted a relationship with another guy a year later - only that guy didn't want a teenage stepson... So sad! She gave up her son for a man who has since left her!) - thank God - my brother finished raising his grandson! The young man has a pretty good head on his shoulders.
Long story.
All that to say - I understand your post - and appreciate it!
James Goodrich - you make me think - you sound like my husband (quiet, introvert, smart, logical and tender hearted) - I am my husband's opposite:
I don't know a stranger, talk freely to anyone - love to encourage others in their gifted areas, more emotional than logical, etc. And yes - these trait difference have caused friction between my husband and I over decades of marriage! π
But - we have learned to appreciate the differences and laugh - alot!
God has blessed me with my husband - I truly am SO thankful for him!
Thank you for sharing today! I enjoyed and appreciated it!
Hug your wife and tell her you love her!
I will respect my husband and thank God for our unique differences! π
God bless!
Iβm very sorry for the loss of your nephew, so horrible. My nephews father is a very selfish guy. My sister in law lost custody to her β6β kids, Stephan was the 2nd oldest. Heβs really a good kid he just canβt seem to get it together. He moved to Portland Oregon with his girlfriend, I spoke to him yesterday.
Thank you! It's been a hard 6 years! Lost several close family members one by one.
Every day truly is a gift - I know not to take it for granted!
Well said. We all need to keep growing.
Great post!
Reading this, especially the part about God, made me think that trying to change people into what *we* want them to be is prideful. We think we know best and that person should become like us. What makes us think they should be more like us when we are imperfect, too?
J. Goodrich- you are very wise!
Thank You Patti Finch, youβre too kind!!
Wow!! That C & C Army fundraising is the $h!t!!
Some things are worth going to the mat for. Jeff almost always has a good handle on this and what needs multiplying.
Conservatives protest best with our feet and our wallets. We are never going to outperform the theatre kids and their outrage riots, nor imho should we want to.
Valerie, Do you mean to say that you can't see yourself rolling on frozen ground, screaming, cursing, flailing, and blowing a whistle while your co-protesters film, scream, curse, and blow whistles?
Not really my style, no. π
Also, I am a chilly person who sits on a heating pad at the dinner table so I donβt get cold. Hanging out outside in freezing weather sounds like particular form of torture designed just for me. Iβll pass.

I just donated again as the first time was before the multiplier but its building up fast. Warner must see this and know he is loved and respected by all of us!
@Aesean- it was fun to scroll through the donations and see so many ending in 2.
It is and many put in comments C&C or Coffee and Covid. We are all generous Souls to help those in need and it feels great!
I didnβt get to donate until this morning. I hope others will still donate today who didnβt yet. We will knock out the remaining balance and more! God will multiply and bless the generosity and love from C&C Army.
We sure are!
Itβs at $304,000 right now!!! They increased it to a $350,000 ask. So amazing to be a part of this awesome group of human beings. β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ
It is so heartening!! πβ€οΈ
Yes - Iβm impressed and in awe in everyone who is able to contribute to such good! Than you everyone. ππ»πΊπΈ
Warner not only fought covid cases, but he started Freedom Counsel which taught other lawyers how to fight them and created a forum for discussion as this was a new area of law
Love being part of it
Over $325k tonight!
Jeff,
I posted yesterday, but late, 480 comments, and I want to make sure you see this as this man is obviously very important to you.
I am not going to donate to the multiplier for Warner Mendenhall, because if he is doing conventional slash burn poison treatments, no amount of money is going to save him. I will however, offer my time. What ever it takes. Every day if he wants. As I have posted in the past, I cured my wife's Stage 2B breast cancer. holistically No oncologist, no slash burn poison. I doubt not one in 10,000, perhaps on in 100,000 people can say that. While some people take that approach, not more than 5-10 % do it until after they have already seriously compromised their immune system with conventional treatments. . I'll wager I am the only person on the site that can say they are not afraid of getting cancer, at least not fast acting cancer induced by an intelligence agency.
The first thing he needs if he choses this route is an advocate, who must be part nurturer, part advisor, part drill sargeant. I will do that if he wants, or if he is married, his wife and I can do that together. I can tell him protocols , what not to do, prioritize protocols., and tell him what we did. If you find a way to put him in contact with me, E mail or phone, that is going to be of far more benefit than any money you can raise for him. You have my E mail from my subscription,
My sister had a stage 4 tumor from a rare form of adrenal cancer removed surgically in 2012. No chemo or radiation follow up. Metastasized to liver in 2021, and half her liver was removed. Fortunately liver can regenerate, and hers did. No chemo or radiation follow up.
She is still going strong at age 73, and treats her food and drink as medicine - careful choices and portions. No one would guess her history.
PS: She also was diagnosed in 1990 with multiple sclerosis, but has never been bedridden or hospitalized for it because of her food and activity choices and strong belief in and service to God.
Strong lady!
With you on that sir. Iβve seen first hand what protocols do. My bride has multiple myeloma. Shes in total remission after a stem cell transplant, highly successful going on eight years. But the initial crap she was started on, she was ready to give up. Not too many 65 years old olds in my brideβs condition. They donβt survive this treatment too well. So yeah, if my condition turns into something, Iβm not going anywhere near our hematologist,and hes a great guy, and I trust him right now,but if I end up in her shoes, there us no way Iβm doing that.
Stem cell transplant - did you have to go out of country ?
Moffit in Tampa. Blood cancers they specialize in.
I did participate in the multiplyer but as a 40+ year Ciropractor ABSOLUTELY am in agreement about the failed current system of cut, poison, burn. Relying on the GOD given innate intelligence of the human body, real food, appropriate nutritional supplementation, and fervent prayer is more effective than what is accepted as βbest methods. β Cancer is simply a symptom and does not have to end Hope or continued life!
Exactly. Unless a tumor is blocking something critical, like your intestines, or pressing on your brain, cancer does not kill you. Whatever underlying symptoms that caused the cancer will, or the chemo or radiation. Cancer is your body's last ditch attempt to get you to fix or change whatever caused the cancer.
So many just canβt, or their families canβt, comprehend how bad our medical system really is. Iβm surprised Mr Mendenhall doesnβt. Does a cancer diagnosis freeze peopleβs critical thinking? Iβll continue to pray he will see the light!
It strikes fear in someone like no other diagnosis. That was Rockefeller' plan, and it works like a charm. My wife panicked and scheduled a masectomy as soon as the biopsy came back.. Did not even meet with a plastic surgeon until after we had decided to go holistic, and she found that more horrifying than doing nothing. If not for divine intervention from someone we did not even know the day before the surgery, and my talking her into going a different way, she would have had her right breast cut off. And family sure as hell is not help. it takes a lot of courage and conviction to step outside the matrix, and then a lot of research to convince yourself you have made the right choice.
My son-in-laws aunt (so someone I donβt know very well) was diagnosed with: years ago with bladder cancer (Covid shot related, imo). She of course went the traditional route, with little result. But thankfully she continued to be open to my sending her info/articles about non-traditional cancer therapies. She now sees a naturopath and is in remission. π
At my age, and this will drive my bride nuts, as she is a retired rn, at the top of the game level, I have no intention of following doctors protocols if this turns into leukemia. Not gonna do it.
I completely understand your point. However, Warner has sacrificed so much when he could have just retired. If you don't donate to his give send go, consider donating to his organization he started to help teach other lawyers how to fight the pandemic related cases. I've donated every year: Freedom Counsel. We need to support those who are fighting the tyranny
I would suggest a 3rd way if he is afraid to deviate from using chemo. This center I am linking uses low dose chemo as well as a host of the best natural treatments. Check out their reviews on Google maps, too.
https://tcfam.com/
Just like it has been said widely it is not our job to red pill anyone, I do not consider my job to force or even coax anyone into deviating from their faith in the allopathic Rockefeller medical system which has been drilled into us all our lives. If you have ever been with someone being given IV chemo, you know it is treated as the highly toxic chemical concoction it is. The first chemo drug was derived from leftover WWI mustard gas. All that have followed are also toxic. There is no amount of it that is safe. I appreciate your trying to help, but for every step forward someone might take following the type of protocols we used, each chemo treatment will take you 2 steps back
Yes, βterminalβ cancer is not a death sentence. I began teaching g herbal medicine after I supported my bff through a stage 4 cancer diagnosis in 2009. She did the chemo and the radiation and she credits the herbs and the mind medicine with her miraculous recovery. I teach a class called Dancing with Cancer for people with cancer and their caregivers. AncientMotherWisdom.com
Incredibly generous offer rolandttg!! Iβve followed your story over the years and weβve discussed a little for various reasons. If I ever got that diagnosis I already know I would try to find you somehow! I hope that Jeff sees this and passes on your information.
an amazing offer Roland.
I pray he will take you up on this generous offer!!βοΈππΌπ
I have heard nothing, and to be frank, I am disappointed. This is not just what I know. It was what I did.. I am just as disappointed that someone thinks I should just send money anyway, when I have offered a gift to this man that transcends the entire $280K raised so far on this platform, and costs me far more in time than you can put a price on. FYI. Bill Henderson, RIP, wrote "Cancer Free", his step by step guide to holistic cancer healing, worked as a paid Cancer Advocate. No idea what this service costs, but I am thinking a lot. I am offering this for free. HFC what more could anyone in his situation ask for. ?
I agree, itβs an incredible offerβ¦you are a blessing
Does that work with essential thrombocythemia?
It is amazing that the real story of Epstein's lock on all things CIA, NSA, MOSSAD, etc. are being covered up by the nonstop media coverage over the missing grandmother in Tuscon.
I thought the same thing. How about putting pressure on John Thune to invoke the standing filibuster and bring the SAVE act to a vote.
I am now convinced Thune is a closeted Dem sitting in a Republican seat.
πππππ
Such an important need I pray daily for it
I'm not buying any of that story. It is as poorly scripted as Charlie Kirk's televised murder mystery.
Are the worst Netflix writers in charge of this irrational story?
Grandma of beloved celebrity gets abducted in the middle of the night, no video or audio evidence whatsoever, family is begging for help on TV, President and FBI intervene with absolutely zero results. Suddenly we become aware of tech weaknesses and media use the story to push for, you guessed it, MORE SURVEILLANCE EVERYWHERE!
The fake news media has no new ideas and no new writers. They recycle the same stupidity for their gullible audience.
Or waiting to bomb Iran.
Yes. What a repulsive example of just how much Trump is controlled by the vile, murderous bastards of Zio-pig Israel.
Remember, they did the 911 attacks to get us to destroy Iraq for them... attacked the USS Liberty to try to get us to war on Egypt...
But just like the covid jabs, the Light will shine and expose the evil for all to see.
It's driving me nuts. I am so sick of Suzanna Guthrie. I feel for the family but give me a break. I don't have to see the non news all day long, every day.
agree. Basically, Jesse Watters had NO Prime time show tonight. . . simply repeating the nothing coverage from Tucson. . .
Something stinks in Denmark.
There will always be distractions, naturally occuring or otherwise. Stay focused, my friend.
I actually think this provides good cover for the Trump inniatives as well, I don't see evidence that they have slowed down.
I agree. Itβs what Trump has been doing all along. Patience Grasshoppers.
Whose daughter interviewed a bunch of Epstein victimsβ¦.hmmm
Ditto the very widespread fraud.
The cockaroaches are actually scrambling for cover now. Let there be more light.
...and of very short wavelengths.
Yup!
;^) ...otherwise know as "radiation."
A little lead poisoning never hurt, either.
And several cans of RAID please. Extra strength with stinging suffering before death
Yes indeed.
But what is true and what is not? π€Someone who I know who dared to start going down the rabbit hole of the files said Trump is mentioned doing something disturbing to a child.
βIs mentionedβ. Donβt forget there was a LOT of phony tips given by unreliable people (hearsay and delusional, obviously set up to give false testimony,) as well as false accusations planted into the files before Trump DOJ took over again. He was their biggest threat so they were going to accuse even though he is innocent. Those who know Trump best know he would NEVER harm a child, and certainly not this way. Maybe in his youth he was like every other guy and chased skirts, but they were always adult age.
Whoever holds the cards, deals. Lotta degenerate reprobates in this world. "Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!"
The best way to know the truth is to read Cathy O'Brien's book Transformation of America (1994) and Nick Bryant's book The Franklin Sandal (2011) Get Cathy's book from her website or the Amazon link on her website as there are many altered fakes. Read slowly. It was hard to sleep for me when first reading them.
UPDATE 10:
EPSTEIN FILES HORROR SHOW:
Trump The Original Epstein Whistleblower, Howard Lutnick The Pedo Crypto Criminal, 330 Gallons Of Sulphuric Acid To Dispose Of Baby Corpses & "Human Incubatorsβ
....As the Epstein Files data dump coalesces into ever more depraved fact patterns of a broad range of heinous crime there is one especially encouraging reveal involving President Trump; to wit:...
....It is clear from this evidence that Trump is acutely aware of the boundless evil that courses through this NWO globopedo sex trafficking network, and yet his cabinet still remains staffed with high-level Epstein coconspirators....
....It is high time for President Trump to call the police in 2026 just like he did two decades earlier on all of these Epstein pedo culprits, because without mass arrests nothing will ever change, and the last vestiges of this Constitutional Republic will soon cease to exist.

Report of two foreign girls killed and buried on Epstein's Zorro Ranch could still be investigated, former FBI agent says
https://crossroadsreport.substack.com/p/report-of-two-foreign-girls-killed
Not to mention ALL the trump drops showing he was just as involved in sexual abuse of teen girls. Why is no one talking about that?!
Please do post links for that info and I'll support.
If true, it'll surface up.
Not just arrests. Trials, and convictions, and long prison sentences.
Iβve spent my professional career implementing orders into results and the order in which you conduct the actions is critical.
Think of demolitions; the preparation is critical and that process takes 99.9% of the time. When the structure implodes, itβs completed in a matter of seconds yet it took months to prepare. Our administration is attacking the infrastructure (USAID, vote rigging, and the fraud that generates $) itβs not a small and quick procedureβ¦ we are witnessing progress.
One word: PATIENCE. We donβt need a βjenga β collapse, we need a Tropicana Hotel outcome.
Yes. This is how I see it too. You have to be very careful and strategic about how you go about something important in order to get the result that you want.
Great and fortifying explanation youβve layed out here. Thank you! Iβm forwarding it to my impatient husband!
I like Jenga:}
Thank you! I needed to read that. I understand and do something similar for a living, but it's much harder from the outside looking in.
I like this in relation to what Trump is doing and is what I expect in relation to bringing down ActBlue Fraud via USAID and the like... But else where the same word "Patience" was raised in regard to all the Epstein crap - which for me is just distraction from what you are talking about... although truth be told - they may all be part and parcel of the same past practices)... I made this reply to the Epstein angle:
No, No Thank you. Patience is trusting the Govt. to do it's job, investigate wrong doing and for US to not WASTE our time with it; until we hear about the Arrests and see fruits of our taxes being usefully spent bringing those to justice. THIS reveals the ROT of Govt. and how it was and is part and parcel of the crime. The time for patience is past - as I've stated elsewhere:
We know the Govt. participated in a sting when Epstein's black book was put up for sale. It's in Evidence.... That's what started all this million pages of documents. People's cry for "Epstein's Black Book"... and yet everyone falls for distraction and it's been forgotten - with millions of pages of documents released... that's not the 1st one? I'm calling bullshit on the whole shit show.
The Govt. / Our representatives need to Work on solutions to the Federal Debt ( https://www.usdebtclock.org ) then there will NOT be Trillions floating around to devalue our dollar and line the pockets of failed prep school teachers who find "social engineering" a more lucrative way to make their way in the world.
Thanks - Best wishes!
So happy to contribute to Warner Mendenhall. Thank you, Jeff Childers! You are the BEST.
βThe former prosecutor-turned-Epstein-associates-lawyer became a federal magistrate. That same magistrate, Bruce Reinhart, later authorized the Mar-a-Lago raid.β
That right there is just one coincidence too many when you consider Trump calling the cops on Epstein 20 years ago. The memory of the swamp is long and the tentacles extend far.
So, waiting for that magistrate to go to go down in flames .... And if he was compromised enough for that, what else is hidden under his hat or his wallet?
Remember, before DJT, the very position of the Presidency was considered 'too important to tarnish'. What they don't seem to understand is the very act of hiding the evils done from there only increases the tarnish and asks for more. Sunlight is the best disinfectant and should be liberally applied to the most important places first!
Trump didn;t call the Cops... he may well have made a deal to spill his guts, to avoid prosecution.
Thatβs not what the Sheriff indicated, but who knows?
You think the Sheriff would?
Boom!
This is not the first time that " ... pulling down and exposing a global order of elite networks and institutions" has been done in human history.
Jesus Christ did the same thing, two thousand years ago.
Beware of the pharisees.
Beware of the enforced Pharisaic judgement on display daily. I mean it was a freaking half time show.
Life is in the nuance. But Saul alinskies devotee's gonna alinsky.
Always.
That's great perspective.
Altho seeing Trump as Jesus will take some getting used to ;)
I did not see that comment as you did. We all know Trump cannot be compared to Jesus.
You could edit your original post for the sake of clarity...
It was not my post.
Right!
Far more like Judas.
Beware of a false comparison
What does that mean?
Don't compare Trump's " ... pulling down and exposing a global order of elite networks and institutions" to what Jesus did. Trump seems more like Nebuchadnezzar aka Nebuchadrezzar - a chosen instrument of God that he used to discipline his wayward people. I support what Trump is doing. I also pray often that Mr Trump will remember that he serves God, and not the other way around.
I didn't.
Trump did not do any such thing... in fact, he did everything he could to quash the Epstein matter entirely.
He denied, like the scumbags Blondi, Kash and Bongina, that the files even existed... he then said they were a Dem hoax... now he says "let's all move on"...
troll
LOL!! What a pathetic worm you are. Did I say anything untrue?
Then YOU, ahole, are the "troll"!!
@sasha_latypova on X also promoted Warner Mendenhall's GiveSendGo. Thank you Sasha.
She did. Thanks for posting
Wonder Why Americans Have Tolerated Epstein Economics and Epstein Government for So Long?
About 128 million Americans watched the Super Bowl on Feb. 8. Some 57% of Americans engage in gambling, which is estimated to be a $209 billion per year βindustry.β On top of that, 60% of Americans are βregular usersβ (at least once in the last month) of porn, which is a $100 billion per year βindustry.β And 61.5 million Americans (23.4% of adults) used marijuana in 2024, with the total street value of all of Dope, Inc.βs drugs internationally estimated at about $1 trillion. In all of these areasβgambling, porn, and drugsβthe percentages are appreciably higher in the younger cohorts than among older generations.
https://eir.news/2026/02/news/wonder-why-americans-have-tolerated-epstein-economics-and-epstein-government-for-so-long/
happy to say I do none of the above. The Superbowl kowtows to the Left and all things decadent. Goodell refused to accept CTE when it was first diagnosed. He is a very bad man, perhaps even evil. I refuse to give him or the NFL 2 seconds of my time or money.
I believe online gambling has killed college football and basketball.
Bruh you lost me on weed. How anybody could choose alcohol over an edible and say they care about being around as long as they can for their kids is mind boggling to me.
I mean sure, why have any vice I guess, but I am a little more realistic in what I can ask of myself so I don't feel as much guilt. When I read in the files about the DARK evil in the world, buying an edible from the dispensary down the street is not making the radar and it is NOT a gateway to anything else.
Some of us find the cloying stench of weed very offensive. I have a glass of wine at an outdoor table and you are unaffected. You walk by smoking a joint and my dinner is ruined.
My daughter developed an anaphylactic allergy to secondhand pot smoke her first semester in college (straight Aβs - never did drugs or drank). Her life forever upended thanks to the uncontrolled drug crisis on campuses. Had to drop out - couldnβt keep her safe and out of the ER. Gave up her college dreams of becoming a speech therapist. We live in fear. She must leave our home every day with a P100 respirator to avoid exposure - the only way we can keep her from constant epi pen use. Just moved further west on 3 acres to get away from the constant smoke in our old neighborhood. Sheβs married and expecting her first baby - we must protect them both. Drugs are awful for this country. Iβm fully aware of the medical uses for cancer etc. But it is just an easy way out for some instead of doing the hard work in therapy. Just use the edibles and let my daughter breathe freely! Sorry for the rant - but we are 6 years into this horrific journey. (After seeing multiple Drs/allergists etc - most likely caused by a vax injury from the meningitis vx prior to college. She knows 2 others with exact same issue - same timing as freshmen in college. )
What a terrible thing! It's a new allergy for me to hear about but it makes sense that vaccine adjuvants would activate the immune system to Marijuana that's been bred to be so potent as it is today. The amount of suffering vaccines are causing young people seems to have no end. I pray it stops, that the truth comes out, and that solutions come to light.
No vapes or smokes. Just low dose edibles. I need to be around for my own kids lives for as long as possible.....But its no more of a drug than an aspirin (bad for stomach) ibuprofen (bad for kidneys), Tylenol (bad for immune trigger).
I have heard about the attenuated virus vax's causing the body to SEARCH on Defcom 5 to find the offending culprit (which is the adjuvant) and in the end it finds peanut butter, or in your daughters case 2nd hand smoke....which leads to the runaway allergic reaction.
I am sorry for the drama it has caused you and wish you, your daughter and your soon to be grandbaby all the happiness and health in the world.
I suggest you find a Homeopath who can help your daughter with her vax injury. There are remedies that help with vax injuries. They can help you long distance if need be if you can't find one locally.
It sounds like youβve seen lots of docs but has anyone suggested detox for the meningitis vax. Has anyone suggested homeopathy?
Just my thoughts, youβve probably thought of everything already.
Yes - she saw a special fertility acupuncturist who helped her with PCOS and did a full detox. We eat super clean, try to be as toxin free as possible - use RO water system - air purifiers etc. we also use a functional med Dr. Soooo glad my gut said heck no to the Cvd poisonβ¦.
Sounds great. I didnβt even know there were fertility acupuncturists!
Iβm so glad I said NO too!
Maybe try this guy? Barry Smeltzer, PA-C, who is affiliated with the American Academy of Environmental Medicine (AAEM) and is noted for his work in environmental medicine.
I am so sorry, that's really terrifying. Living near Seattle I know how insidious and pervasive marijuana smoke can be. The increasingly widespread use is not just an annoyance, it can be life threatening for someone like your daughter.
Congratulations on the upcoming birth of your grandchild, and prayers for a safe delivery!
Thank you for your kind words. This trial has certainly brought us closer to God βοΈ.
Do you think allergy shots might help reduce sensitivity? It is a plant and I have seen allergy shots work. I didnβt think they would, but they did! But this was for respiratory symptoms, not anaphylactic.
I hope there is a solution.
Thanks - I had relief with allergy shots. Unfortunately - there is no such thing with a federally illegal substance. Perhaps it will be eventually with the dramatic increase in pot use. Was told itβs so much worse for people than standard cigarettes - but we will need to see the damage over years/decades before awareness kicks in.
This!!!
There is no difference between a glass of wine and a low dose edible. Minus Jesus turning the water into wine of course.
I have no objection to people eating whatever they want (except the Epstein "jerky" mentioned by Jeff). I have a considerable amount of objection to the smoking of weed because the smoker is forcing everyone around them to smell it.
Keep your pleasures and addictions to yourself and don't make me unwillingly participate in them. That's all I ask.
π―π―π―
Completely agree. And it really annoys me when smokers are completely dismissive of any complaints. Also they tend to get really hostile when you say anything negative about it π
I worry about having to shoulder the medical cost of anyone who smokes (or vapes) anything.
My kids smoked weed, their mommy dearest started them at 12 years old. I gave it up at about 18, for one itβs tough to play harmonica when you have cotton mouth,and at the level I was playing at, failure wasnβt an option. But I married a lovely woman, who had a five year old boy. Then we had one of our own. Unbeknownst to me, she was getting high with them both. They are now 42 and 55. Both, stopped maturing at about 12 years. So keep eating edibles, and remain where you are, dumbass.
What a sad story to live through! I too have witnessed the damage heavy weed use can do to teens. If youβd posted without the last sentence, I would have given it a βlikeβ. Your truth doesnβt have to negate anotherβs. Name calling is never helpful.
I guess Iβve gotten to the point where trying to talk sense to senseless imbeciles has made me a little more obnoxious than I used to be.
Triggered much? Find joy. Forgive your wife.
Dont smoke anything. Smoke everything. But judge less please?
Some of us are happy where we are and with who we are.
And that is what is wrong with America right there. Everything is permissible as long as you don't judge. Reminds me of the "flower children" of the '60s when I was a teen... "Free Love". No ethical structure. No morality. No accountability to a higher law. Just don't judge me. It's no coincidence that the '60s was the peak of America culturally. From that point, America has done nothing culturally except to slide into self-serving platitudes and debauchery.
Both America and Europe are now awash in dope and emotional/mental immaturity. You cannot go anywhere in a city without smelling the dope. Young children are conditioned from the earliest ages to view promiscuity and drug use as not only normal but acceptable.
Is it any wonder that as a people we are finding ourselves being subjugated and culled... without protest? We are being destroyed from within.
One of the primary historical weapons of war used to conquer people and culture has been drugs and alcohol. The USG waged war on the American tribes and the primary weapon used to destroy them was alcohol. Drugs have been and are being used across the globe as a primary weapon of war.
And we are in a war. The drugs flooding into this country like a fire hose is a direct attack upon the American culture, which up until 50 years ago, was based on Christianity. Make no mistake. We are in a war and we are being attacked on all fronts.
The American culture is being destroy right before our eyes... and we refuse to see it. The ongoing depopulation program is in the process of degrading our food supply to the point where it is now a very real threat of producing across the board famine in America and the world as a whole. Intoxicants, mass invasion, destruction of cultural norms, subversion of democratic political processes and destruction of 'law and order'... all of this is a kinetic war being waged on us... culturally and physically.
This is a very real war with very real enemies who mean to exterminate and subjugate us.
What is wrong with America is there isnt enough Judgement?
Lost me sorry man. Christ wants us to judge each other?
That's not surprising.
And your days of improvement are over, dope. Cool dude,letβs watch some cartoons. Fucking imbecile.
Seriously, your replies sound just as triggered. Pot calling the kettle much? π€£π€£
No pun intended π¬
Lmaooo
I discovered weed at 12. It didn't keep me from maturing, although in retrospect it may have slowed the process a bit. I overindulged during my teens, but over time it became a rarer indulgence, to the point where it's extremely rare these days - and I'm 63.
A beer, a glass of wine, a little single malt, a hit to relax and defocus - everything in moderation. "Just Say Maybe" is a lot easier than always saying No, and makes choices more conscious. Shall I imbibe, and what would it help or hinder, do I have responsibilities that will be affected, will it affect my ability to be present around the people I care about?
All life is nuance. As long as escapism isnt the motive, Just say Maybe sounds pretty AOK to me.
Hey, everyone needs to "escape" once in a while. As long as it doesn't become a habit or a pattern, a little escapism is great. There are plenty of things worth escaping from in our modern world.
One could argue that unplugging from email, social media, online streaming, whatever, is escapism - if one were to assume that all of this "plugging in" is reality. I went without TV for the first two years of my marriage, and got a lot of great work done on my young self and our relationship. We only "plugged back in" because our cable was free and my uncle died and left me his "huge" 27-inch TV. We wanted to catch up on all the Star Trek shows our friends were into. And there it was: the slippery slope. This was all before the arrival of the Web, mind you. We were so young and innocent, we thought we were being "informed" by the news.
Going camping or even just taking a day hike is escapism, if you think that all of THIS is the real world. But when I go outside and feel the sun on my skin, play with my pets in the grass, have direct experience with the planet in all of its myriad splendors - that doesn't feel like escape, unless it's escape from a mental prison that's been constructed around us.
Since we can only experience the world around us through our senses (which are faulty) and process that input through our brains (which are faulty), I'm not entirely sure we can EVER lay claim to "real" experiences, anyway. But staring at screens ain't it - I definitely know that much.
I just canβt do that, high. Maybe weed has a more profound effect on me than others, but I notice it with my bandmates, they think theyβre playing better, but in reality,they make stupid mistakes, are never nearly as good on solos as they are when they arenβt high. But you canβt say that. My old band we were together for 14 years. And the bassist and drummer were high from morning to night. The drummer was an incredible timekeeper, but the bassist was as rudimentary as a 12 year old, and we couldnβt get him to learn any new songs. I asked him once when he get straight, and he said he hadnβt not been high for twenty years. Sorry. Itβs not necessary.
π
PeeKaye, I agree. God set me free from alcohol addiction and I have not had a drink since 2001, about 2 weeks before 9/11 happened. I also thank God for legal medical marijuana.
Congratulations Margot, for making it through 9/11 and the crazy aftermath alcohol-free.
The day before 9/11 I saw an 18-year-old girl die in a terrible car accident right in front of me. I heard about the Twin Towers the next morning from a cashier in a supermarket, where I was buying flowers for a roadside marker (which I'd never done before) as a way to deal with the trauma I'd witnessed the previous morning. When I got to work, everyone was glued to radios and the internet, then we all got sent home. I took a couple of weeks off to get my head together - those two tragedies were a bit much to deal with back-to-back..
I can't say I dealt with it all alcohol-free, but I didn't become a drunk over it, either.
Thanks for sharing. Amazing that you can write this and I'm glad you did. Accepting the traumas we never can control makes us know how ungod like we really are...and it burts is an understatement and also a healing balm. God is good and His plans are righteous. Everyday I have to say this.
God helps those who help themselves....you were the main player...
Actually God helps those who cannot help themselves.
I guess God helps everyone, then..
Yep - God loves all.
Actually, no. I did not want to give it up. Jesus gave me the willingness to BE willing to lay it down and trust Him. All glory to Him.
The Super Bowl is the biggest single day trafficking event worldwide. Imagine if there no more DEMAND for porn and prostitution? There would be no need to traffick women and girls. Just say βnoβ to porn.
The Curse of Canaan goes back a long time. Just being used now for a purpose.

Mr. Childers, great uderstanding. I don't refer to the Bible in responses to your writings normally. There are plenty of Bible quoters who follow you. But think about how things are unfolding - an assasination attempt that fails, and that saved person affects his own country and countries around the world; an underlying global evil is identified and, slowly, the veil is torn and the maggots appear. Little by little, evil is overcome by good - and there is a lot more good in the world than evil. The reference is the story of the battle of Jericho. There it was the Israelites; here it is the good people in our Congress, FBI, et al. The Israelits were marching and singing songs praising God. We are having hearings that gain national and world recognition. Not might, but words, brought down the walls of the highly fortified city. And words of truth will eventually bring down this fortifed city and all its demonized people, the Epstein Empire.
It is unfortunate however how many times the Israelites betrayed God with Baal, Moloch and performed child sacrifice themselves. I was horrified to learn this as I am going through the Old Testament. But in your example, the walls coming down is one of the more uplifting stories in the Bible.
Those that betrayed God - LOST, everytime. Such is true today and always. Be positive.
Be positive about child sacrifice. ok then, lol. Next.
No, silly, that the bad guys lose. As to child sacrifice, give me the gun and bring those who would harm children to me. Let the blood of the vile be on my head that I may serve the Lord as his lion.
"Yahweh" demanded the slaughter of many, including young girls, as a "sacrifice".
Read the OT.
Abiding Dude, let me say only this, I have read the Bible, cover to cover, more than once. I know the Old Testament from the New Testament, and what those words mean. I also know that I am pretty good at reading things and interpreting them on my own, and if I miss understand something and speak incorrectly about it, it's on me, not someone else. I also know there are a number of things in the Bible that are impossible for me to understand or explain - Numbers 31, and 2 Samuel 11:14β17, are two examples. Why God took such vengeance on the Midianites ( acommand the Israelites did not follow through, and paid a heavy price for themselves), or why He allowed David to set up the death of Uriah so that David could commit a carnal sin (one which David paid for with the death of his son from Bathsheba) are a very large and a very small mystery I hope to understand, if not in this life, then the next. I also wonder why 6 million of God's chosen people, the Jews, were killed in the Holocaust, and God allowed it. There is much I don't understand from the ancient past and the recent past. But there are things that I do understand - Faith, Forgiveness, Love, Friendship, Hope, a Divinity greater than anything I can know or understand. I beleive in those things. All I can do is the best I can do. That will have to be enough, and I am okay with that.
I will gladly help you form a pride of Lions for that purpose.
No, the total destruction of cities by the jews and "Yahweh" are an appalling example of the mass-murder of innocents...
VERY similar to what those scumbags are doing in Gaza.
Read Biglino's "The Naked Bible"... great book... will wake you up.
Trump has had the goods on Epstein the whole time. Can you now see another example of why the American Communist Democrats hate him and have lost their minds. Grab the popcorn, itβs going to be good.
