“Former President Donald Trump’s popularity among Republicans is 43 points greater than Sen. Mitch McConnell’s (R-KY) popularity, a recent Morning Consult poll found.
Republicans’ preference for Trump over McConnell underscores the success of Trump’s America First movement, which McConnell largely opposes:
The poll sampled 753 Republican voters from March 30-31 as has a four-point margin of error.
This week, McConnell said he intends to remain in the U.S. Senate to oppose his party’s position not to fund the Ukraine-Russia war.
“I’m not leaving the Senate,” McConnell said. “I’m particularly involved in actually fighting back against the isolationist movement in my own party. …And the symbol of that lately is, ‘Are we gonna help Ukraine or not?’”
McConnell announced in February he would step down as Senate minority leader at the end of the cycle following health issues and incidents of freezing up during press conferences.” (Courtesy Breitbart.com)
The gaping chasm between the popularity of the former President and the popularity of the former Senate Majority Leader comes as no surprise.
The Republican Establishment have grown arrogant and aloof, distancing themselves from the people who gave them their cushy jobs on Capitol Hill.
History shows the former President Trump came along and galvanized the average Americans in “Flyover Country” into a Conservative Juggernaut and a political force to be reckoned with.
And, he is poised to do it again.
McConnell has a problem: The fact is that the Republicans do not have any chance of success in the 2024 Presidential Election without the Charismatic Former President.
He knows that.
His obvious age-related illnesses have given him the perfect excuse to step down from his leadership role, in which his hatred for Trump would be very obvious to all Americans, and still remain a force behind the scenes in the Senate.
Here’s a well-known “secret”: The same average Americans who comprise the Republican Voting Base do not trust the Capitol Hill Establishment Republicans any further than they can throw them.
Americans have watched the Republicans sell them out to the Democrats for years until Trump came along.
Trump connected with average Americans in a way no other Republican has since Ronaldus Magnus (Ronald Reagan).
He lifted the Republican Party up from the mire of the D.C. Swamp and showed them how to actually stand up to the Democrat Elite.
The only problem with the alliance between Trump and the Republican Establishment is the greed and the habit of pushing for political expediency, which the Republicans on Capitol Hill have embraced for years.
It’s going to be up to Trump to keep them “honest”.
And, a MAGA Republican victory in November will certainly help get things moving in the right direction.
“MSNBC host Al Sharpton said Friday on “Deadline” that former President Donald Trump was a “low down” conman playing “boogeyman politics.”
Sharpton said, “He was the same guy that stood on television as president of the United States and said it will be over in two weeks. Don’t worry about it. And then finally he told us to take bleach. So now we’re going – I think that the collective amnesia, that a lot of Americans are having, is the challenge that the Democrats have to put out there, say this is the guy that you voted out. Remember, now, he ran for re-election. You didn’t want him back again. Don’t let him con you now with this boogeyman politics. The boogeyman is coming, the boogeyman is coming. He was the boogeyman.”
He added, “He’s playing on style and swagger. (Courtesy Breitbart.com)
MSNBC Host Al Sharpton has made a living for years out of fear-mongering, race-baiting, and “style and swagger.”
On November 28, 1987, a 15-year-old black girl named Tawana Brawley was found lying inside a trash bag outside an apartment building located in Wappingers Falls, New York. She was covered in feces and racial insults had been scrawled on her body. When questioned by police she claimed that a group of white men, including police officers, had raped and beaten her. The black community rallied around her, and a prominent black leader, the Reverend Al Sharpton, appointed himself her spokesman. Support for Brawley reached its peak on June 15, 1988 when her advisers held a meeting at the Bethany Baptist Church in Brooklyn that was broadcast to an audience of ten million viewers.
However, the material evidence did not back up Brawley’s claims. Her body displayed no signs of rape or assault. She was not frostbitten, even though she had supposedly been kept naked in the freezing woods for days. The feces on her body turned out to be from a neighbor’s dog, and even more damningly, a local resident of the apartment community where she was found claimed to have seen her climb into the trashbag alone and lie down of her own accord.
In October 1988 a grand jury issued a report following a seven-month investigation. It concluded that Brawley’s claims were a hoax. Many speculated that Brawley had made up a wild story in order to avoid punishment at the hand of her stepfather for having run away from home for three days. But Brawley herself insisted that she was telling the truth, a stance which she has maintained to this day. More than anything else, the episode and its bitter aftermath displayed the deep racial divisions that still haunted American society.
In 2012, the Reverend Al Sharpton, MSNBC Host, got out in front of the cameras once again.
If George Zimmerman is not arrested in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin soon, theRev. Al Sharpton will call for an escalation in peaceful civil disobedience and economic sanctions.
Sharpton would not say the efforts would be taken against the city of Sanford specifically, but he has been critical of the police department’s handling of the case.
“Hands up! Don’t shoot!”
Now, I’m not arguing that Trump says a lot of outrageous things.
He definitely does, and he does it to get the attention of Americans.
HIs flamboyant nature is what made him popular for years and years with the New York Democrat Elite and those who want to be around money like Reverend Al Sharpton and his partner-in-crime Rev. Jesse Jackson.
That’s what makes this so funny.
The Democrats are so desperate to get Trump out of the Presidential Race that they’re going to say and do anything they can on up until the election and then for the four years that he will be in office.
Like any psychosis, Trump’s Derangement Syndrome gets worse and worse as time goes by.
The sufferer gets to the point where it consumes his or her entire life like Captain Ahab going after Moby Dick or Khan going after Captain James T. Kirk.
This psychosis is so bad that it has literally consumed and taken over an entire political party. A political party that still proclaims themselves to be the smartest person in any room and which they entered.
Now, they stumble around like the zombie hordes in The Walking Dead. Their one goal in life is to ruin former President Donald J Trump and his family and to silence his supporters.
They cannot tell you what great accomplishments that Joe Biden has had during his nightmarish tenure as President of the United States of America but they can sure tell you how awful a person Trump is and why the unconstitutional Political Lawfare that they are using against him is justified.
Much to their chagrin, what they are finding out is that Trump derangement syndrome has blinded them to the reality around them. Average Americans are dealing with high gas prices and grocery bills that are 40% higher than when Trump was in office.
Americans’ savings accounts are being depleted, and their credit cards are maxed out. American homeowners are having to refinance their homes at a higher rate just to pay bills.
The Democrats have painted themselves into a corner with the American people and all their arrogance, and their flat-out lies are not resonating with Americans.
Why?
Because Americans (for the most part) live in Realityville.
“President Joe Biden demanded an “immediate ceasefire” from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in a phone call on Thursday between the two leaders, threatening a loss of U.S. support for the war if Israel does not comply.
In a statement, the White House said:
President Biden spoke by telephone with Prime Minister Netanyahu. The two leaders discussed the situation in Gaza. President Biden emphasized that the strikes on humanitarian workers and the overall humanitarian situation are unacceptable. He made clear the need for Israel to announce and implement a series of specific, concrete, and measurable steps to address civilian harm, humanitarian suffering, and the safety of aid workers. He made clear that U.S. policy with respect to Gaza will be determined by our assessment of Israel’s immediate action on these steps. He underscored that an immediate ceasefire is essential to stabilize and improve the humanitarian situation and protect innocent civilians, and he urged the Prime Minister to empower his negotiators to conclude a deal without delay to bring the hostages home. The two leaders also discussed public Iranian threats against Israel and the Israeli people. President Biden made clear that the United States strongly supports Israel in the face of those threats.
Biden’s statement confirms that the U.S. has effectively adopted Hamas’s demand that a ceasefire precede a deal to release the remaining 130 or so Israeli hostages. The U.S. previously agreed with Israel that a ceasefire depended on a deal.
…In a press briefing, White House national security spokesperson John Kirby would not state what the consequences would be, specifically, if Israel did not make the changes Biden had demanded.
Kirby said that the accidental killing of seven World Central Kitchen workers in an airstrike earlier in the week was one of the more important factors in pushing Biden toward the demand for a ceasefire, which he had long resisted.” (Courtesy Breitbart.com)
So, the Biden Administration and the Democrat Elite are acting like horses’ rears to Netanyahu over the accidential deaths of seven workers?
Lord knows, the Biden Administration has never accidentally killed citizens.
Oh, wait…
“Head of the United States Central Command Gen. Kenneth F. McKenzie Jr. announced Friday that it is unlikely any ISIS-K members were killed in a Kabul drone strike on August 29, which led to multiple civilian casualties.
“We now assess that it is unlikely that the vehicle and those who died were associated with ISIS-K or a direct threat to US forces,” McKenzie said of the airstrike at a briefing, following an investigation by the Military.
“This strike was taken in the earnest belief that it would prevent an imminent threat to our forces and the evacuees at the airport, but it was a mistake and I offer my sincere apology,” Mckenzie said, adding that he is “fully responsible for this strike and this tragic outcome.”
The drone strike, which was intended to target ISIS-K operatives, resulted in the deaths of an aid worker and up to nine of his family members, including seven children. According to U.S. officials, the strike on the vehicle, formerly believed to have been a threat that included bombs and that was operated by ISIS-K militants, took place after a suicide bombing at Kabul airport in Afghanistan killed 13 U.S. service members and civilians.
“On behalf of the men and women of the Department of Defense, I offer my deepest condolences to surviving family members of those who were killed, including Mr. Ahmadi, and to the staff of Nutrition and Education International, Mr. Ahmadi’s employer,” Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin III” (Courtesy FoxNews.com 9/17/21)
So, why has the Democratic Party, including the Biden Administration, turned against our greatest ally, Israel?
Opposing God’s Chosen People and supporting the historically nomadic people that call themselves “Palestinians” fits with the Far Left Democrats’ Political Ideology, which views modern political struggles as “Class Warfare”, being waged between race and ethnic groups.
Far Left Democrats believe that the predominantly white West is somehow subjugating the non-white rest of the world. This viewpoint is an extension of the class-based, rich versus poor, categories, which they intentionally classify people in, since the Presidency of their fallen messiah, Former President Barack Hussein Obama (mm mmm mmmm).
For years now, I have referred to the intolerant political ideology of the Far Left Democrats as “The New Fascism” because of their intolerance toward traditional Americans Faith and Values, including our relationship with our closest ally, since their birth as a country in 1948.
What we are seeing now, as regards the anti-Semitism in the Democratic Party, which began under Former President Barack Hussein Obama, is a result of an amalgamation of the political philosophies of the special interest groups who have replaced average Americans as the Democrats’ Voting Base.
Anti-Semitism is the norm in Marxism in all of its forms, fascism, and, of course, Islam.
All of these political philosophies are the anti-thesis of who the Far Left Democrats claim to be.
The Biden Administration has, of course, taken no responsibility for the Iranian-funded attack by the Radical Islamic Terrorists of HAMAS even after giving the Iranians their six billion dollars back.
They say there’s no way that the Iranians could get a hold of it with permission.
Money is fungible.
It is easily moved around and is interchangeable.
The Biden Administration and the Far Left Democrat Elites’ Anti-Semitism and naiveté regarding the mindset of the Mad Mullahs of Iran and their support of Islamic Terrorist Organizations like HAMAS made the Hamas attack diring which over 1,000 Israelis,including babies, were mercilessly slaughtered, possible.
That’s unforgivable.
And dangerous.
“12 Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee:
2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:
3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.” (Genesis 12: 1-3)
“Special Counsel Jack Smith attacked Judge Aileen Cannon in a filing submitted late Tuesday in the Justice Department’s case against former President Donald Trump alleging that he mishandled classified material after leaving office.
Smith’s team accused Cannon of a “fundamentally flawed” understanding of the case, after she requested draft language from both sides on potential jury instructions that they argue embrace Trump’s claims that he had broad authority to take classified government documents. Smith’s team also threatened to seek an appeal court review.
Cannon asked each side for instructions for two scenarios: One in which they would tell jurors to assess whether the records fell into the categories of “personal” or “presidential,” and another that assumes Trump had complete authority to take records he wanted from the White House.
“Both scenarios rest on an unstated and fundamentally flawed legal premise — namely, that the Presidential Records Act and in particular its distinction between ‘personal’ and ‘Presidential’ records, determines whether a former President is ‘authorized,’ under the Espionage Act, to possess highly classified documents and store them in an unsecure facility,” Smith’s team wrote in the filing.
Trump’s defense team argues that the former president had broad authority to characterize any record from his time as president as personal and that the case should be dismissed. Smith’s team called that argument “pure fiction.””
“Since the passing of the Presidential Records Act, presidents and vice presidents are required by law to hand over all presidential records to the National Archives. On its website, NARA dubs itself as “the nation’s record keeper,” that its collection of records “help us claim our rights and entitlements, hold our elected officials accountable for their actions, and document our history as a nation.”
Well, it appears the National Archives has fallen quite short of its mission following the revelation that Biden had classified documents from his tenure as vice president and as senator in various locations in his Wilmington, Delaware home including his garage and his Penn Biden Center think tank.
The records, which reportedly include at least 25-30 documents marked classified, were found in five separate disclosures since Nov. 2, the week prior to the November midterms, and were in Biden’s possession anywhere between a minimum of six years when he left the vice presidency and at least 14 years when he first left the Senate.
Yet, the National Archives formally requested Trump’s large trove of records in May 2021, less than four months after he left office, which had spurred into a years-long dispute between him and the federal agency that ultimately led to the FBI raiding his Mar-a-Lago home in August 2022.
Trump and his defenders have said that unlike Biden when he left the Obama administration, Trump had the authority to declassify his documents as an outgoing president.”
Why isn’t Biden on trial?
Because the Democrat Elite has weaponized our legal system, that’s why.
“Special Counsel Jack Smith, who is heading up the classified documents case against former President Donald Trump, has a history of charging political leaders, including former Kosovo President Hashim Thaçi.
…The former acting Director of National Security during the Trump administration, Richard Grenell, contends Smith’s charging of Thaçi was politically driven.
Smith is a Harvard Law graduate who embarked on a career in the American legal world with a job as a prosecutor in the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office in 1994.
…Smith made the jump from the state to the federal level in 1999, taking a job at the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York in Brooklyn.
…Smith also worked several stints as a prosecutor in Europe, first as the investigation coordinator in the International Criminal Court prosecutor’s office from 2008-2010 and then as the special prosecutor in the KSC, prosecuting war crimes — where former President Thaçi comes into the frame.
[When Jack Smith announced the indictments against President trump, Grinnell noted that “His Kosovo case is falling apart and his own witnesses there are now claiming he and his team at The Hague faked CIA officials to intimidate them.”]
…Federal Election Commission records show that Smith’s wife, Katy Chevigny, in September 2020 made two $1,000 donations to Biden’s efforts to beat former President Donald Trump, with one donation going to the Biden for President campaign committee, and the other made to the Biden Victory Fund super PAC. Moreover, in 2008, she apparently made a $150 donation to Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s (D-MN) campaign, Open Secrets shows. Chevigny also helped produce the 2020 Michelle Obama documentary Becoming, according to Big Mouth Productions, a company she helped found. (excerpts from an article on Breitbart.com 6/13/23)
As I have been writing recently, the majority of Americans are not buying this Political Lawfare against former President Trump.
They are already upset about the prices of the food that they need to eat in order to stay alive and the gas that they need to buy in order to get to work.
The American people, judging by all the polls, are more than ready for Donald J Trump to become President again on November 5th of this year.
The miserable failure of Bidenomics, out-of-control violent crime, and the invasion of illegals into our country via a southern border left wide open by a president and his political party who are desperate to replace the American voters who are turning against them, have Americans very upset and not in the mood to hear any more lies from the Biden Administration.
If they go ahead with this documents case, all it will do is throw a spotlight on the Democrats’ two-tier legal system.
When Special Counsel Jack Smith announced the indictments against former President Donald J Trump, he said, “We have one set of laws in this country, and they apply to everyone.”
Unless you are a member of the New Aristocracy, the Democrat Elite.
“The judge in Donald Trump’s April 15 hush-money criminal trial declared his family off-limits to the former president’s rancor on Monday, expanding a gag order days after Trump assailed his daughter and made false claims about her on social media.
Manhattan Judge Juan M. Merchan amended a week-old ban on Trump making public statements about witnesses, jurors and others connected with the case after the presumptive Republican nominee lashed out at Loren Merchan, a Democratic political consultant in several posts on his Truth Social platform.”(Courtesy apnews.com)
“Democratic political consultant” is putting it mildly.
“Loren Merchan is President and Partner of Authentic Campaigns, which, according to their byline, is “[U]nleashing the power of the internet to advance progressive ideals.” Loren Merchan previously described herself as “Director of Digital Persuasion for Kamala Harris.” She previously worked for Revolution Messaging.
According to her LinkedIn profile, Loren Merchan has been with Authentic Campaigns since April, 2018. According to their website, some of Authentic Campaigns include clients Cory Booker, Mazie Hirono, United We Dream, VoteVets.org, Mi Familia Vota, Barbara Lee, Democracy for America and others.” (Courtesy keywiki.org)

Above you see a collection of Democratic National politicians and special interest groups who Loren Merchan’s company created campaigns for designed to further the power of the Democratic Party.
Now, do you understand why former President Trump has been shouting to the High Heavens about the conflict of interest in this case? This judge can not reasonably claim that this is not a conflict of interest.
Trump was set up from the get-go.
Every single case of Political Lawfare against former President Trump was coordinated by the Democratic Elite in the Halls of Power in Washington DC.
This is a practice that has never been seen in the United States of America before. In the past, it was restricted to Marxist countries like Russia, China, and third-world dictatorships.
The Democrat Elite has forsworn the United States Constitution and what it stands for. They are now following teachings of Karl Marx, Vladimir Lenin, and Mao Zedong and his “little red book.”
They are so power hungry, they are oblivious to the way that this attack of Political Lawfare looks to average Americans.
In fact, they believe that average Americans are beneath them and are replaceable with the new Democrat voters that are entering over our Southern Border.
But I digress…
The Founding Fathers did not mean for our Legal System to be used in this manner.
They believed that every man deserved a fair hearing and a just verdict.
If our Founders were here to see the Legal System which they so brilliantly devised being used in such a manner, they would arrest those who had temerity to do so and put them on file as traitors.
Come to think of it, that is not a bad idea at all.
“Former President Trump on Monday posted a $175 million bond in his New York civil fraud case, preventing the state from seizing his assets while he appeals.
A New York appellate court had given the former president 10 days to put up the money after a panel of judges agreed last month to slash the amount needed to stop the clock on enforcement.
If Trump wins, he won’t have to pay thep state anything and will get back the money he has put up now.
Until the appeals court intervened to lower the required bond, New York Attorney General Letitia James had been poised to initiate efforts to collect the judgment, possibly by seizing some of Trump’s marquee properties. James, a Democrat, brought the lawsuit on the state’s behalf.” (Courtesy FoxNews.com)
Let’s break this down. Judge Arthur Engoron was extremely biased to begin with.
“Engoron has given more than $5,000 to Democrats over the past 25 years, the Daily Wire first reported. The money has primarily gone to local committees; his most recent donation from 2018 went to Manhattan Democrats.
The money has also gone to Democrat candidates such as former New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, former Gov. David Paterson and other state lawmakers, the publication reported.”
And then, there is Democrat New York Attorney General Letitia James, who ran on the promise to “GET TRUMP”.
So, Trump had about as much chance to win in Judge Engoron’s court as someone appearing in a Russian political trial.
The original ruling was for him to pay $454 million dollars which he would have to pay in full in order to appeal the original ruling for somehow violating a law that had not been used a long long time.
He was charged with overvaluing his real estate properties, a practice which is used in every real estate deal in america.
The Democrats dug it up in order to get the presumptive Republican Candidate for President out of the way.
In fact, District Attorney James was salivating at the prospect of being able to grab Trump Tower and other properties if Trump failed to pay the outrageous ruling.
All of these legal actions currently being taken against former President Trump have backfared spectacularly on the Democrats.
They have sent a message to average Americans that the Democrats in power are no better than the Russians. They will do anything they have to do in order to get Trump out of the way.
If all this Political Lawfare is allowed to continue, it will be used as a political weapon.
And it won’t just be used to get politicians out of the way.
It will also be used to keep average American citizens in line from speaking out against the Far Left Democrats who plan on remaining in power in perpetuity.
Former President Trump is being used as a object lesson.
On Sunday, the overwhelming majority of Americans celebrated Easter, also known as Resurrection Day, the day that Jesus Christ rose from the dead.
However, not Joe Biden, his handlers, and the rest of the Democrat elite.
They celebrated transgender Visibility Day, one of a myriad of made-up holidays celebrating 1 to 2% of America’s population who have embraced sexually deviant behavior.
Check out the list below…
After a backlash of monumental proportions, the White House was forced to issue an acknowledgment of Easter. Whoopee.
I don’t believe that God was impressed because as the White House flunkies and inviting guests all arrived on the White House Lawn along with children for the annual egg roll, which was ordered to be secular in nature with no eggs having religious themes, the bottom literally fell out and thunderstorms forced a delay in the festivities.
I did notice that Sleepy Joe was up on the White House balcony with Secret Service Agents dressed in Bunny suits. They were undoubtedly on each side on him to make sure he didn’t fall off.
But, I digress.
For those of you who may be reading this that are atheist, you won’t understand or believe in what I’m speaking of.
However,those of you who are Christians will.
I believe with all my heart that it was no coincidence that it thunderstormed on Monday morning after the ignorance displayed by the Biden Administration and Democratic Party on Resurrection Sunday.
This Administration and that political party have embraced sexual deviance in a manner not seen since Sodom and Gomorrah.
I know that even atheists have heard the story of Lot and the towns of Sodom and Gomorrah, who had so fallen into the abyss of sexual deviance and evil behavior that God wiped them out.
Since Christ shed has blood on this cross, Christians have been under a New Covenant with God.
However, as everybody has figured out during the maturation process, there are still consequences for our actions.
We live with them every day.
Perhaps Monday morning’s thunderstorms were a warning.
This morning, as I lay in bed, The Lord had me thinking about Him. These thoughts were about what today, a day that Christians around the world celebrate as the day that Jesus Christ rose victorious from the grave, must have been like.
Pretend for a moment, that you are an average citizen living at the time of Christ…
[For the past three years, you have seen this charismatic young man speak about the love and mercy of God, and how His Grace and Forgiveness is freely given, IF…
And, there’s the catch…
According to this carpenter’s son from Nazareth, you have to confess your sins, and ask the Great I am, for forgiveness.
Whoa! Wait a minute. Who is this guy? A radical? Ask Yahweh for forgiveness?
And, what’s that he said? You will then have a personal relationship with His Father?
How can that be? This is the Great I am. This is the Deity of Vengeance who destroyed those escaped slaves from Egypt for throwing a party, while Moses was up on a mountain, and building and worshiping a Golden Calf.
And, remember what happened to King Nebuchadnezzar? Daniel interpreted a dream for him, explaining that his kingdom would be ruled over by Gentiles until God sent His King. Ol’ Nebby got mad, because he couldn’t rule over the Israelites and over the whole world unless God allowed him to do so. He forgot that, and became very proud. He tried to make the people think that he was very wonderful, and that they should worship him. He didn’t trust God as some of the kings of the Israelites did, but had the very foolish idea that he could be a wise and wonderful king without any help from God.
So, what do you suppose occurred?
Why, the King had another dream, and when he found out what it meant it was really terrible. In this dream God told him that he would lose his mind and would go out in the field and eat grass just like the cattle for seven years. And Nebuchadnezzar actually did this, too. Can you imagine a mighty king, as he thought himself to be, crawling around on the ground eating grass? The Bible tells us that his hair grew long and coarse and looked like bird feathers, and his fingernails became like the claws of animals.
Finally, though, Nebuchadnezzar’s reason returned to him, and when he found out what he had done he was very much ashamed of himself.
However, he learned by this experience that he was not as wise and powerful as he had thought. Learning this, he gave praise to God for allowing him to be the ruler.
This is the God that some carpenter’s son from Nazareth has been telling us that we can have a personal relationship with?
Strange indeed.
Finally, one of His disciples betrayed Him and gave Him up to the Romans, who crucified Him.
I noticed that while He was hanging there the guards and some of the townspeople there were mocking Jesus, telling Him that if He was the Son of God, to ”jump down off of that cross”. Meanwhile, some of the centurions were casting lots over His robe.
All except this one centurion, who was just watching Him, as if he was waiting for something to happen…]
And, then came the Glorious Morning… [Wow. It’s really been amazing around here since they crucified Jesus. Did you feel that earthquake? The veil of the temple was torn in half! And did you hear? A bunch of people that had died years ago, were seen walking around the city! But that’s not all. Don’t tell me you haven’t heard?
Listen to this: He has risen! He arose from the dead and was seen by several people. It’s true! I know it sounds unbelievable. I can scarcely take it in myself. Mary Magdalene and Mary, James and Salome’s mother, went to the tomb to perform the anointing of His body and it wasn’t there! On top of that, there was this young guy there, dressed in a white robe. They said he must have been 9 feet tall. He said, “You are seeking Jesus of Nazareth. Why do you seek the living among the dead? He is not here. See the place where you laid him.” So they went and told the disciples. But you know how Peter is. He just had to go run up there and see for himself.
Jesus even approached two of them on the road to Emmaus. They didn’t recognize him. He even broke bread with them that night. They realized who He was and He disappeared! They ran to tell the disciples and as they were telling them, Jesus appeared right in front of them! They were all starting to panic. Jesus said, “Peace to you.” But they couldn’t believe it was him, especially Thomas. So he had him touch him in the hole in his hand where they drove the nail and where the spear pierced his side.
Jesus ate with them and performed other signs and miracles in front of them and they understood scripture as never before. He also came to them at the Sea of Tiberius. Peter took the disciples fishing and they weren’t catching anything. Jesus told them from the bank to cast the net down on the right side. They did, and they could hardly bring it in the boat! When they got back to land, Jesus already had a fire going and some fish and bread ready to eat. He asked Peter three times if he loved Him, and each time He told him “Feed my sheep’. Hey, isn’t that the same number of times Peter Denied Him?
Anyway, He taught them many things before He left. They watched as He was taken straight up into heaven. Can you imagine?
The disciples are making plans now to go out and starting spreading the Good News about Jesus’ Resurrection. They are talking about going out in pairs. Man. Nothing is ever going to be the same again.]
The despair being felt by the average citizens of Rome, at the time, is not unlike the situation which we, as average Americans, find ourselves in today.
We, too, are still struggling in the darkness before the dawn.
Our American Culture has been crumbling before our very eyes, as sin, depravity, and personal irresponsibility have been lauded by “the smartest people in the room” as normal, and values to be embraced…a Golden Calf to be worshiped by those who have turned their backs of the Almighty, because He will not give them the worldly gratification they seek…and because they erroneously believe that they are smarter than God, and can interpret and ignore God’s Holy Word in order to ignore and to rewrite to make it mean whatever they want to, in order to assuage their own consciousness, in an attempt to stifle that “Still Small Voice” within them, Who is reminding them of their sin and the consequences of it.
For the past several years, our Sovereign Nation and the rest of the world have been fighting enemies foreign and domestic, even within our own government, along with a Chinese Coronavirus, a combination of challenges which have claimed thousands of deaths in our country and the loss of jobs for millions of Americans.
Today, as we watch an out-of-control Congress and Administration attempt to take away our American Freedom, we all need to remember the words of President Ronald Reagan:
We are never defeated unless we give up on God.
Fellow Americans….my message to you on this Resurrection Day 2023 is
DO NOT GIVE UP ON GOD. DO NOT GIVE UP ON THE FOUNDING FATHERS’ HOPE, WHICH BECAME AMERICA.
As the old country Preacher’s wife always told him when she took away his plate after supper,
Hold on to your fork, Hon. Dessert is on it’s way.
The final chapter of the amazing story of our Blessed Land has not been written yet. It is up to each and every one of us to write it, strengthened by the Grace of God.
Until He Comes,

“A recent poll reportedly found that a large percentage of registered voters believe that Jesus Christ physically rose from the dead.
The news comes as Easter approaches.
The Daily Signal, citing a Scott Rasmussen National Survey poll, reported Thursday that almost 70 percent of registered voters believe in Jesus’ bodily resurrection, while over 70 percent say they will be celebrating Easter on Sunday.
The outlet said the survey was conducted on March 20 and 21 with 1,000 registered voters.
The article also said:
Respondents were asked whether a series of statements were true or false. They were asked to evaluate whether “the man known to history as Jesus Christ actually existed and walked the earth,” or not.
By a margin of 83% to 5%, voters said they believe that Jesus Christ did in fact exist and walked the earth.
The margin of error for the survey was plus or minus 3.1 percentage points, according to Rasmussen.
Meanwhile, a Pew Research Center report said a record high number of Americans say the role of religion in public life is waning and many believe it is a negative thing for people across the nation, according to a Breitbart News article published March 19.
“According to the survey, 57 percent of Americans believe religion plays a positive role in public life, while only 19 percent have a negative view of the role of religion,” Breitbart News’s Thomas D. Williams reported.
In 2023, a WSJ/NORC poll found that the happiest people residing in the United States place greater value on religious belief than those who are unhappy in life, per Breitbart News:
The highest correlation for people saying they are “very happy” is belief in God, with 68 percent of this group declaring belief in God to be “very important” to them. By contrast, among those who are not happy, fewer than half (42 percent) say faith in God is very important to them.” (Courtesy Breitbart.com)
So, when is all this Christianity in America going to “fade away” as predicted by “the Smartest People in the Room”?
As the poll in the above article shows…while some have forsworn their Christian Heritage, the majority of Americans still proclaim Jesus Christ as their Personal Savior and believe in God Almighty.
However, if you read some of the comments posted on Conservative Websites and Facebook Political Pages by self-appointed “pundits”, you would think that Christian Americans are the minority in this nation.
I can testify from personal experience, having caught flack for sticking to my Christian American Conservative Principles, since beginning my posts in April of 2010.
My posts, concerning American Christianity, seem to “touch a nerve” in both Liberals and Atheists, alike. (But, in at least some cases, I repeat myself.)
Their reaction has hardly been unexpected.
Of course, one of the Hot Button Issues, which those Liberals and Atheists who responded, over the years, immediately denied, was that our Founding Fathers were Christians and that our country was founded on a Judeo-Christian Belief System.
Evidently, they had never read anything, except what their like-minded, non-believing soothsayers, allowed them to.
Atheist Activists and young and/or misinformed Liberals and self-proclaimed “Libertarians” (but, in a lot of cases, I repeat myself), who reply to my posts, insist that Crosses and other Christian symbols have no place in the Public Square.
Relying on Far Left Ideologues or their own opinion as their “highest authority”, they continue their push to eliminate the practice of American Christianity and the Traditional American Morality and Ethics which go with it from Everyday American Life, attempting to regulate Christians’ role in American Society as remaining unseen and unheard from, worshiping in private, on Sunday mornings, only.
Or, as Actor and Professional Wrestler Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson would say, the Democrat Elite wants American Christians to
“Sit down, shut up, and know your role!”
Unfortunately for them, the First Amendment to the Constitution still holds. “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”
Far Left Democrats seem to have great difficulty comprehending the role that Our Creator, the God of Abraham, played and plays in this Grand Experiment, known as the United States of America.
Why have Far Left Democrats ratcheted up their anti-Christian Vitriol and Negativity since January 21, 2009?
Why are they so focused on removing America’s Christian Heritage?
Well, as is usually my wont, I have been doing some “reckoning” about this.
It seems to this ol’ Southern Boy, living here in the Heartland, that America’s Christian Heritage and the very real fact of His influence in building and shaping America’s growth into the greatest country on the face of God’s Green Earth, not only stifles and interferes with Modern Liberals’ “anything goes”, “share the wealth”, “hive-mind”, “man is his own god” Political Ideology, but the reality of God’s very existence, somewhere deep in their miserable, bitter psyches, scares the mess out of them.
Why else would they be trying so hard to fight against the influence of Someone Whom they really don’t believe in?
I see them every single day on the television, on the Internet, on Facebook Political Pages, posting stupid meme (a picture with words on it) after stupid meme, attempting to make fun of The Great I Am and those of us who have given our lives to Him.
They are so hateful and filled with such bitterness that it is difficult to engage them in “conversation”.
Perhaps, somewhere in their back of their minds, all of these Modern Far Left Democrats realize that they are fighting a losing battle.
Christianity continues to exist in America despite their best efforts.
For, as the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia stated so eloquently, “God has been very good to us America was built upon a Solid Rock. To ignore our nation’s Faith-Based Founding and Heritage is to live in purposeful ignorance.”
As President Ronald Reagan said, “If we ever forget that we are One Nation Under God, then we will be a nation gone under.”
And, as Hebrews 13:8 tells us, “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.”
Regardless of the political machinations of Modern American Liberals, God will have the final word as to our country’s future.
“Core principles once central to Americans’ values receded in importance this year, according to a Wall Street Journal-NORC poll published Friday. The share of respondents who said patriotism was very important dropped 32 percentage points compared to a 1998 poll, and those who said the same of religion decreased by 23 percentage points.
“It seems we’re moving away from some of the things we hold closer and moving towards others,” Jay, from Atlanta, told Fox News. “As times move on, people want different things.”
The importance of having children dropped from 59% in 1998 to 30%, according to the poll. Meanwhile, respondents who considered money a top priority increased to 43%, up from 31% a quarter-century ago.” (Courtesy FoxNews.com)
Why is this happening?
I believe that as Conservative Americans, we need to stop being the Silent Majority.
And, my fellow Americans, if the path of destruction that we are witnessing, being forced upon us by a political ideology which has gotten completely out of control is not evil, then I don’t know what is.
My reasoning behind this is the fact that all it takes for evil to triumph is for good people to remain silent.
Consider, if you will, a country in which its president’s first action in office was to close an oil pipeline which was important to our country’s energy needs and which employed thousands of Americans.
…a country whose majority political party builds a wall around its capitol building in order to separate itself from the citizens whom they are supposed to be serving.
…a country whose President and his Administration gave billions of dollars of our weaponry behind during a botched pull-out from a Radical Islamic Nation, leaving Islamic Terrorists in charge of it who worked with others who killed 3,000 Americans 20 years ago, leaving hundreds of Americans trapped inside the country.
…a country whose President announces with glee that he is going to require private businesses to pay more taxes in order to pay for projects that American taxpayers do not support.
…a country whose President vows to fight a Supreme Court ruling, giving decisions about Abortion Laws back to the states where it belongs.
…a country whose President is obviously battling dementia, getting worse every day, and no one is making him step down because the cabal who is “handling” him will not allow it.
…a country in which the faith of the majority of its citizens is constantly attacked by the same people who constantly claim to be tolerant of others.
…a country where the Elite of both political parties in Washington, DC, can circumvent the polirical will of the American people by weaponizing our Sustem of Justice up to the point of having local DA politically indict aa former President of the United States of America.
Another thing…
You have unvetted, unemployed, Illegal immigrants flooding across our Southern border, while the Biden Administration refuses to do a cotton-pickin’ thing about it.
Our Border Patrol has found evidence that there are drug runners, rapists, and terrorists among those whom the Democrats are euphemistically referring to as “migrants”.
The difference between a migrant and an illegal immigrant is that a migrant comes to a place to find seasonal work and leaves to find more work when the job is done.
All too often, illegal immigrants come to America to take advantage of all of the Federal Government’s “charity” that they can get their hands on. Of course, the financing for this “benevolence” comes from our American Tax Dollars.
Another very important thing that more Conservative Americans need to stand up and be heard about is the deliberate programming of our children and grandchildren in public school systems across our country to accept evil as good, America as being a racist country, and deviancy as normal sexual behavior.
America’s Public schools have changed from being centers of education to being centers of indoctrination and grooming.
Finally, I believe that Conservative Americans need to speak out about political corruption.
If we do not speak out about it, then we are perpetuating the Far Left Democrat Elites’ arrogant belief that average Americans are timid sheep who are easily bought off with vague political promises which they have no intention of fulfilling.
…and reinforcing the Democrat-heavy poll in the excerpt from Fox News at the beginning of this post.
Also, if Conservative Americans do not speak out against mail-in ballots, a practice which allowed a Dementia-riddled old professional politician to become president, then our children and grandchildren are doomed to a future in servitude to a corrupt all-powerful Central Government, resembling that of the old Soviet Union.
In conclusion, we owe to those who have gone before us, who pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor to establish this Constitutional Republic and those who have paid for our freedom with their very lives to “fight the good fight” against those who would “radically change” America into a country that it was never meant to be.
I believe that the key to all of this, is to renew our faith in God and His Son, who on this day gave himself up on The Cross, spilling His Blood in order to create a New Covenant with The Father, so that mankind could be spared from our own sins.
Without Christ, without God, America will be assigned to the Dustbin of History.
We must get back to the Faith of our Fathers or America will be lost.
