Psaki Tells Doocy That She Doesn’t Have Any Updates as to Whether Xi is Helping Us Track Down the Origins of COVID-19…Of Course She Doesn’t

Chinese President Xi Jinping shakes hands with U.S. Vice President Joe Biden inside the Great Hall of the People in Beijing

FoxNews.com reports that

White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Friday that she did not have “any updates” whether China’s President Xi is helping the Biden administration and American intelligence agencies track down the origins of COVID-19.

Last month, following a virtual meeting between Biden and Xi, Psaki did not deny that Biden failed to ask Xi for assistance and told Fox News White House correspondent Peter Doocy that Biden’s messaging was “clear” when it comes to determining the origins of COVID-19.

Asked then by Doocy whether Biden’s message “is clear to somebody who has a Zoom meeting with the president that that’s what he means if that’s not what he says,” Psaki claimed that America’s “national security officials have conveyed very clearly” and that she does not “think it’s a secret” that America is looking into the origins.

Doocy asked Friday whether Xi “has helped” and “been transparent.” Psaki responded, saying the Biden administration would appreciate support from Xi and China in discovering the origins of COVID-19, but that she does not “have any updates on the participation or willingness of the Chinese to add and provide additional data.”

Last month, ahead of the virtual summit meeting which did not produce any major breakthroughs, Xi referred to Biden as his “old friend.” In contrary to Xi’s remarks, Psaki said after the meeting that Biden “considers him someone he has known for some time” and someone he can “have candid relationships with.”

In October, the World Health Organization announced 26 proposed members to an advisory committee aimed to steer studies into the origin of the COVID-19 pandemic and other pathogens of epidemic potential.

Per WSJ.com, a number of Senators, including Ron Johnson and Dr. Rand Paul, sent  a letter last summer to Dr. Francis Collins, the head of the National Institute of Health. Here is an excerpt…

One of the notable NIH-funded studies that was already underway prior to the funding moratorium (in 2014) was Dr. Ralph Baric’s work on a “lab-made coronavirus related to SARS.” In this 2015 study, researchers reportedly created a chimeric virus “related to SARS [that] can infect human cells.” Dr. Zhengli-Li Shi, “China’s leading expert on bat viruses” from the Wuhan Institute of Virology, contributed to this research. An article noted that NIH allowed this study “to proceed while it was under review by the agency.” Baric reportedly added that “NIH eventually concluded that the work was not so risky as to fall under the [gain of function] moratorium.” It is unclear why NIH apparently concluded that this study was not “risky” enough to fall under the moratorium.

In addition to Baric’s apparent gain of function research in 2015, NIH and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) also reportedly funded similar coronavirus research conducted by EcoHealth Alliance, which subcontracted with Shi. Because of Shi’s research and her connection to the Wuhan lab, Dr. Richard Ebright, a molecular biologist and infectious disease expert, stated, “[i]t is clear that the Wuhan Institute of Virology was systematically constructing novel chimeric coronaviruses and was assessing their ability to infect human cells and human-ACE2-expressing mice.” In fact, Dr. Peter Dasazk, the president of EcoHealth Alliance, spoke about changing coronaviruses in a lab. In an interview Dasazk stated, “Well I think . . . coronaviruses — you can manipulate them in the lab pretty easily.”

In December 2017, NIH lifted the funding pause and established a multi-disciplinary review process, known as the P3CO Framework, to ensure that federally funded gain of function experiments are “conducted responsibly.” It is unclear whether EcoHealth Alliance or any of its subcontractors was granted an exception to the moratorium or whether NIH reviewed those studies in connection with the P3CO Framework.

Of course, #ChinaJoe is not going to ask his “old friend” Xi to help research how the COVID-19 Pandemic started

The Washington Swamp helped to fund it!!!

The funding of research into bat viruses done by the Wuhan Institute, under the funding by the EcoHealth Alliance, lasted for over a decade.

Surprise! Surprise! Both the CDC and the NIH are partners of the Ecohealth Alliance.

Just as we found out during the whole charade known as “Russiagate”, there are Professional Bureaucrats who operate behind the scenes of our Federal Government, imperious and seemingly above the law.

Like a spider’s web of intrigue, they move in the shadows, spending our tax money on projects away from the eye of the public.

Projects like the Bat Virus Research done by the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

These projects remain unknown by the general public, until something unforeseen happens, like the “accident” at the Wuhan Institute which released COVID-19 on an unsuspecting world.

Former President Trump tried to clean out this rats’ nest of Professional Bureaucrats, naming them the Washington Swamp.

Unfortunately, he did not succeed and they eventually were able to arrange for a demented old man to be appointed the 46ths President of the United States of America.

The entire COVID-19 Catastrophe and Washington’s behind-the-scenes machinations during it, which resulted in a nationwide lockdown and a “radical change to our American way of life, has been all about controlling average Americans to get them used to having their individual freedom taken away from them.

These revelations concerning the Washington Swamp’s involvement with the funding of COVID-19 are just the beginning of horrifying things which were done in the darkness by bureaucrats which are about to find themselves illuminated by the light of truth.

“Show Me Your Papers”: Biden Administration Says That a Covid-19 Vaccination Requirement for Domestic Travel is “Still on the Table”

On By kingsjesterIn PoliticsLeave a comment

Covid-19 Vaccination Card

FoxNews.com reports that

The White House on Thursday said a COVID-19 vaccine requirement for domestic travel is still on the table as the United States heads into the winter months and battles the new omicron variant, saying the Biden administration will continue to “evaluate and assess on a daily basis.”

President Biden on Thursday is set to formally announce a series of steps to take on COVID-19, including a requirement for all international passengers flying to the U.S. to test for COVID within 24 hours of departure – regardless of vaccination status – and an extension of its mask requirement on all domestic flights and public transportation.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki on Thursday was asked whether a vaccine requirement would be added for passengers traveling on domestic flights.

“I would say that nothing is off the table, so, including domestic travel,” Psaki said, noting that there are “some strong protections in place already, including the requirement of mask wearing.”

The White House is set to extend the mask mandate to March 18, adding a doubling of fines if individuals are noncompliant with the requirement. The current mask mandate was slated to expire on Jan. 18 following an extension last August.

The mask requirement has contributed to a spike in altercations on flights and other forms of public transportation. Last month, Attorney General Merrick Garland ordered the Justice Department to enhance its efforts to prosecute unruly passengers.

“We base our decisions on the advice of the health and medical experts,” Psaki said, noting that officials are looking at “a range of factors as we make decisions about what steps we can put in place.”

“Again, nothing’s off the table,” Psaki added.

And White House coronavirus task force coordinator Jeffrey Zients this week was asked during an interview on MSNBC about a potential domestic flight vaccine requirement – something he, too, left as an option.

“We do have those tight requirements on the international travel, we have the workplace requirements, we’ll continue to look at all options and everything’s on the table,” Zients said.

The changes in travel and mask requirements come as public health officials have expressed concern about the omicron variant, the latest mutant strain of COVID-19.

Biden, last week, restricted travel from South Africa and seven other countries over concerns of the “heavily mutated” omicron variant of COVID-19 – a move he said Monday gives the United States “time.”

As for travel bans from other nations reporting cases of the omicron variant, the White House said it is continuing to “assess on a daily basis,” and that the president will “always err on the side of protecting the American people.”

“The decision to put in specific travel restrictions from a set of countries was made based on the recommendation of our health and medical team and based on the fact that there were hundreds, if not thousands, of cases that we were seeing in South Africa and concerned about in neighboring countries,” Psaki said. “So that was a decision that was made at that time – no one wants that to be permanent.”

She added that the administration is assessing whether “additional restrictions need to be put in place.”

But this week, a California resident who was vaccinated against COVID-19 was confirmed as the first U.S. case of the omicron variant.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on Thursday also identified a second case of the variant in the United States – a Minnesota resident who had traveled to New York.

As for the threat that the omicron poses, Psaki on Thursday said there is “a lot we don’t know.”

“And that is challenging, and frustrating, I understand, for Americans, for all of you,” Psaki said. “And we want to give the space and time for the public health officials who are working 24/7 to assess and provide guidance on it.”

She added: “It could be less deadly, it could be more. We don’t know.”

Meanwhile, the White House stressed that the new measures are implemented based on what officials believe is “going to be most effective.”

“We’ve continued to add and make vaccines and boosters more available and accessible,” Psaki said. “So we will continue to evaluate and assess on a daily basis.”

Not only are they attempting to take away Americans’ FREEDOM OF CHOICE, things could get even uglier than that.

What if the Biden Administration and their handlers decided to use the information to ostracize and “control” those Americans who have chosen not to take any of the COVID-19 Vaccine Shots?

Something very similar has been done before.

German officials identified Jews residing in Germany through the normal records created by a modern state. They used census records, tax returns, synagogue membership lists, parish records (for converted Jews), routine but mandatory police registration forms, the questioning of relatives, and from information provided by neighbors and municipal officials.

In territory occupied by Nazi Germany or its Axis partners, Jews were identified largely through Jewish community membership lists, individual identity papers, captured census documents and police records, and local intelligence networks. Germany’s racial laws identified a “Jew” as anyone with three or more Jewish grandparents, regardless of their religious identity or practice. Conversions to Christianity were pronounced illegitimate going back two generations, formalizing and instituting Nazi racial theories.

Now, I not saying that this will be another Holocaust. God forbid.

However…

Have you ever heard of the Gesundheitspass”?

In 1940s Germany, the Main Office for Public Health of the National Socialist German Workers’ Party issued a health passport known as the gesundheitspass (health card. bill of health. health pass) to allegedly track the health of the German people. In reality, these passports became one of the many tools used by the Nazi Party to identify and get rid of those who were not members of the “Master Race (Aryans)”.

On a different website, you will find these words…

Where is this art of ruling, to say nothing of the art of leadership? It is only the unscrupulousness for robbery. And when this same man then says: “We have a fine instinct for idealism and material values.” Yes indeed they have. They have destroyed idealism everywhere, and they have grabbed and taken possession of material worth and always grabbed and taken possession of it, too, by brutal force only. For in 300 years that nation has oppressed and yoked and subjected nation after nation, people after people, race after race.

No, boys and girls, the following quote did not come from the Antifa Group Refuse Fascism’s website, although it certainly reads like something they would write.

This quote comes from the Jewish Virtual Library. It is taken from a speech, delivered in 1942, given on the 19th Anniversary of the “Beer Hall Putsch”, by German Chancellor Adolph Hitler.

The Beer Hall Putsch was an incident that took place on November 8, 1923, when Nazi troops under the direction of Hermann Goering surrounded the a beer hall in Munich, Germany. At 8:30 p.m., Hitler and his storm troopers burst into the beer hall causing instant panic. Hitler announced to the crowd that the Revolution had begun, and went to the back room of the hall to try to persuade the local officials to capitulate to him. They wouldn’t. Hitler’s attempt to seize power that night failed. But, thanks to word of mouth, and Hitler’s use of propaganda, a seed was planted, that would eventually lead to World War II.

By now, you are probably asking:

Okay. So what does one thing have to do the other?

Hitler eventually rose to power by preying upon the economic despair, hopelessness, and avarice of the German people, whose country was savaged by the Great Depression of 1929.

Hitler formed a political party, naming it The National Socialist Party, which led to he and his thugs being called “Nazis”.

The era became known as the “Rise of Fascism”.

The Biden Administration and his fellow members of the Democrat Elite, including the Blue State Governors, used the COVID-19 Pandemic to take away Americans’ Freedoms. And, these now “oligarchs” have loved their new Unconstitutional Power so much, that they do want to keep it, even though the science shows that it is going away.

These political actions, including the identification of those who have refused to take the COVID-19 Vaccine, is a much an act of fascism as identifying and ostracizing human beings by race or religion, 

My question is: Will the Biden Administration identify the “Unvaccinated” by a circle with an empty hypodermic needle in it with a line through it?

Or. will they make Unvaccinated Americans wear that same marker as a yellow badge?

Protester Outside Supreme Court Yesterday Claims that Abortion “Saves Lives”…Are You Kidding Me?…Molech Would Be So Proud

On By kingsjesterIn PoliticsLeave a comment

Supreme Court Abortion Protests

FoxNews.com reports that

Pro-life and pro-choice protesters who gathered outside the Supreme Court on Wednesday morning told Fox News why they came to protest, with one saying abortions save lives, while others said they kill humans.

“I’m here today because I think that abortion hurts both the unborn and it hurts women,” an anti-abortion activist told Fox News.

In contrast, a pro-choice supporter said: “I’m here today because I believe that a woman’s right to choose her future, her destiny, her reproductive health care, is a fundamental right.”

The anti-abortion activist said: “I think that science has come a long way and proved that the babies in the womb are alive and well.”

Hundreds of protesters on both sides of the abortion debate gathered outside the court as oral arguments began in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, a case that could overturn Roe v. Wade.

“It’s critical that it is not overturned because it saves lives,” one woman wearing a “Clinic Escort” face mask told Fox News.

A woman holding a “Supreme Court: Overturn Roe v. Wade” sign disagreed, saying “abortion intentionally kills human beings, and it’s one of the greatest Holocausts of our time.”

The woman in the “Clinic Escort” mask said abortion is the “basic floor level of human autonomy, bodily autonomy.” She said she believes abortion has been in jeopardy since it was codified and worries about what overturning Roe would mean “for the rest of us who are Black, Brown, queer, indigenous – what other rights are going to be stripped away?”

Another woman disagreed: “I want to protect LGBT children in the womb. If they ever found a gene that makes them predisposed to LGBT, I don’t want them to be targeted like people with disabilities have been.”

A man holding a “Hands Off Roe” banner said he was there to express his concern that Roe v. Wade could be overturned.

“The state has no business getting involved in a woman’s intimate decision as to whether to carry a pregnancy to term,” he said.

Then the state should not fund abortions, should it?

The Protests going on outside the Supreme Court doe not simply represent a struggle against just Christianity vs. Secularism.

Americans are caught up in a struggle of Good vs. Evil.

In 2003, Illinois State Senator Barack Hussein Obama (mm mmm mmmm), spoke in front of his colleagues in defense of the infanticide known as Late-Term Abortion…

I just want to be clear because I think this was the source of the objections of the Medical Society. As I understand it, this puts the burden on the attending physician who has determined, since they were performing this procedure, that, in fact, this is a nonviable fetus; that if that fetus, or child – however way you want to describe it – is now outside the mother’s womb and the doctor continues to think that its nonviable but there’s, lets say, movement or some indication that, in fact, they’re not just out limp and dead, they would then have to call a second physician to monitor and check off and make sure that this is not a live child that could be saved. Is that correct?

While The Lightbringer was in the Illinois State Senate, he opposed a state version of the federal Born-Alive Infants Protection Act, a bill which would make sure that babies who survive abortions are given proper medical care.

This measure also protected babies who were “aborted” through a purposeful premature birth and left to die afterwards.

During Obama’s U.S. Senatorial Campaign in 2004, his opponent attacked him for supporting infanticide by voting against the above-mentioned bill. Obama responded by claiming that he had opposed the state bill because it lacked the neutrality clause found in the federal version.

The Chicago Tribune reported on October 4, 2004,

Obama said that had he been in the U.S. Senate two years ago, he would have voted for the Born-Alive Infants Protection Act, even though he voted against a state version of the proposal.

During Obama’s 2008 run for President, he stood by those claims.

In March, 2008, during a Townhall Meeting in Western Pennsylvania, Democratic Presidential Candidate Barack Hussein Obama (mm mmm mmmm) said,

Look, I got two daughters — 9 years old and 6 years old. I am going to teach them first about values and morals, but if they make a mistake, I don’t want them punished with a baby. I don’t want them punished with an STD at age 16, so it doesn’t make sense to not give them information.

Of course, Barack Hussein Obama was elected President of the United States. When he was “radically changing” everything about our sacred land, blood was being spilled across the fruited plains. Especially, in that same state of Pennsylvania:

On February 18, 2010, the FBI raided the “Women’s Medical Society,” run by Dr. Kermit Gosnell, a butcher, euphemistically killing babies under the title of “Abortion Doctor”.

The FBI entered the office about 8:30 p.m. expecting to find to find evidence that it was illegally selling prescription drugs. What they found was America’s Auschwitz:

There was blood on the floor. A stench of urine filled the air. A flea-infested cat was wandering through the facility, and there were cat feces on the stairs. Semi-conscious women scheduled for abortions were moaning in the waiting room or the recovery room, where they sat on dirty recliners covered with blood-stained blankets. All the women had been sedated by unlicensed staff. They also found out that a patient had died there several months earlier.

Until 2009, Gosnell reportedly performed mostly first and second trimester abortions. But his clinic had come to develop a bad reputation, and could attract only women who couldn’t get an abortion elsewhere, former employees have said. “Steven Massof estimated that in 40 percent of the second-trimester abortions performed by Gosnell, the fetuses were beyond 24 weeks gestational age,” the grand jury states. “Latosha Lewis testified that Gosnell performed procedures over 24 weeks ‘too much to count,’ and ones up to 26 weeks ‘very often.’ …in the last few years, she testified, Gosnell increasingly saw out-of-state referrals, which were all second-trimester, or beyond. By these estimates, Gosnell performed at least four or five illegal abortions every week.”

On January 22, 2013, Obama said,

On the 40th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, we reaffirm its historic commitment to protect the health and reproductive freedom of women across this country and stand by its guiding principle: that government should not intrude on our most private family matters, and women should be able to make their own choices about their bodies and their health care.

The Liberal mind is fascinating.  Sick and twisted…but, fascinating. On the one hand, Obama was saying that children are to be cherished and protected. I agree.

At, the same time, he stood by a woman’s right to kill her baby. I can hear the Liberals screeching right now.

That’s not a baby. It’s a fetus! It’s not the same thing! You chauvinist pig!

(Fetus is Latin for BABY)

If cherishing God’s gift of life makes me a “chauvinist pig”, you’re darned skippy I am! Yay, pigs! Sooey! That’s not a puppy growing in there, y’all.

The blatant hypocrisy that was shown by Obama, his loyal minions in Congress, and the MSM, the Liberal pundits on TV and Radio, and ignorant “seminar” callers and posters on Conservative websites, in defense of  “their rights “not to be punished with a baby” and their resounding silence regarding the American Auschwitz known as the Gosnell Case, was reminiscent of Germany in the 1930s…and positively chilling.

Remember a while back, when MSNBC Host, and resident Communist, Melissa Harris-Perry proclaimed,

…we have to break through our kind of private idea that kids belong to their parents, or kids belong to their families, and recognize that kids belong to whole communities. Once it’s everybody’s responsibility, and not just the household’s, then we start making better investments. (?)

Evidently, for Modern American Liberals, that only applies when the child is no longer a “punishment”.

In the case of “Abortion On Demand”, I believe that average Americans have recognized the obvious.

As President Ronald Reagan observed, all those decades ago,

I’ve noticed that everyone who is for abortion has already been born.

Trump on CNN’s “Indefinite Suspension” of Chris Cuomo: “In Any Event, Fredo is Gone!”

On By kingsjesterIn PoliticsLeave a comment

Cuomo Brothers Branco Cartoon

FoxNews.com reports that

Former President Donald Trump on Tuesday toasted CNN’s indefinite suspension of anchor Chris Cuomo.

“Great news for television viewers, they have just suspended Chris Cuomo indefinitely,” Trump said in a statement. “The big question is, was it because of his horrendous ratings, which in all fairness have permeated CNN and MSDNC, or was it because his brother is no longer Governor? Probably both.”

He added, “In any event, Fredo is gone!”

Fredo is the hapless fictional brother of Michael Corleone in the movie, “The Godfather.”

The network announced on Tuesday that it is suspending Cuomo as it evaluates his conduct following stunning revelations from the New York Attorney General’s investigation into his brother, ousted Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo.

“The New York Attorney General’s office released transcripts and exhibits Monday that shed new light on Chris Cuomo’s involvement in his brother’s defense,” a statement from CNN read. “The documents, which we were not privy to before their public release, raise serious questions. When Chris admitted to us he had offered advice to his brother’s staff, he broke our rules and we acknowledged that publicly.”

Calls for the “Cuomo Prime Time” host to be fired intensified on Monday after newly-released documents showed he was far more involved in aiding his embattled brother than he had previously disclosed to viewers.

Isn’t it funny how things have come back to bite all of the self-righteous Democrats in  Washington, New York, and Hollywood right in the gluteus maximus?

As Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee in 1991, President Joe Biden presided over the confirmation hearings of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, where Anita Hill’s accusations of Sexual Harassment against the then-nominee took center stage.

Of course, Biden now expresses regret that he was not able to do more for Anita Hill.

Remember the accusations of Sexual Harassment made against then-Democrat Presidential Candidate Joe Biden by Tara Reade?

Reade was one of eight women who came forward last year (2018) with allegations that Biden made them feel uncomfortable with inappropriate displays of affection. Biden acknowledged the complaints at the time and promised to be “more mindful about respecting personal space in the future.”

Can you say “hypocrite”, boys and girls?

Biden was solidly behind the accusers in the cases of Clarence Thomas and Brett Kavanaugh, who were both nominated by Republican Presidents to be on the Supreme Court.

Merely the fact that they were Republican Nominees made them guilty as sin in his eyes.

During any situation in which someone the Republicans back is accused of Sexual Harassment, the Democrats automatically insist that Americans “Believe the Women”!

In the case of Serial Sexual Harasser Gov. Andrew Cuomo, Biden and the Democrats were saying 

“I think the investigation is underway and we should see what it brings us.”

The Liberal Democrats at CNN behaved the same way toward Chris Cuomo.

They kept on covering for him until they saw that it was driving away the few viewers that they had.

And now, they have “Indefinitely suspended” him because they did not have the guts to fire him.

Democrats are nothing, of not predictable.

Federal Court Blocks Biden’s Mandatory COVID-19 Vaccinations for Health Care Workers in 10 States

On By kingsjesterIn PoliticsLeave a comment

 

Healthcare workers vaccinations

https://twitter.com/thebradfordfile/status/1465502094610374661?s=20

FoxNews.com reports that

A federal court halted President Biden’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate for health care workers in ten states.

“The scale falls clearly in favor of healthcare facilities operating with some unvaccinated employees, staff, trainees, students, volunteers and contractors, rather than the swift, irremediable impact of requiring healthcare facilities to choose between two undesirable choices — providing substandard care or providing no healthcare at all,” wrote U.S. District Judge Matthew Schelp in a 32-page order Monday.

The ten states impacted by the ruling are those that sued the Biden administration over the rule: Alaska, Arkansas, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, New Hampshire, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wyoming.

Biden’s Nov. 5 order applied to health workers in hospitals that receive federal funding through Medicaid or Medicare, with Biden arguing that the rule was needed to help slow the spread of COVID-19 among the nation’s health care workers.

But Schelp ruled the order likely exceeded Biden’s authority, giving the ten states a temporary victory as the case continues to wind its way through the system.

“Congress did not clearly authorize CMS to enact this politically and economically vast, federalism-altering, and boundary-pushing mandate, which Supreme Court precedent requires,” Schelp wrote.

The ten states sued the administration shortly after the order was issued, arguing it encroached on states’ rights and would worsen health care worker shortages.

The ruling comes days after OSHA announced that it was suspending its enforcement of Biden’s vaccine mandate for private employers with more than 100 employees after it too was blocked by a federal court, which ruled the agency should “take no steps to implement or enforce” the regulation.

“OSHA is complying with the 5th Circuit’s stay,” a Department of Labor official said. “OSHA is not enforcing or implementing the [regulation] — so they are not engaging or offering compliance assistance.”

Back in September, Biden made a pivot in his focus…not from Afghanistan to COVID-19…but from coward to tyrant.

However, there has been slight hitch in the Puppet President’s Plan….

Per ConstitutionCenter.org…

…the broad powers held by states to control vaccine policy can also be used by state governments to block vaccine mandates, in certain situations, at lower government levels and in the private sector. As of August 2, at least 14 states had enacted Covid-19 related laws that barred employer vaccine mandates, school vaccine mandates, or vaccine passports.

At a federal level, the vaccine mandate question is more complicated. With few exceptions, the CRS (Congressional Research Service) says there are no laws that allow the federal government to issue a vaccine mandate to the general population. These exceptions include requiring proof of vaccination for immigrants requesting permanent resident status and vaccine mandates for military service members—allowing for certain exemptions. 

This weekend, as all of the Political Pundits talk about this ruling, you will probably hear the bring up the Supreme Court Case of 11905, in which the Supreme court ruled that a local government in Massachusetts could mandate that members of a community be vaccinated, However, this was not a ruling in favor of a FORCED vaccination. If you chose not to take it, you were fined the equivalent of $150 in today’s money.

Biden’s COVID-19 Business Mandate is a violation of not only state rights, but the rights of Americans and Private Business Owners to make their own decisions about their health and the way they operate their businesses.

Biden is not only overstepping his authority…he is goose-stepping over it.

From his decision to leave Americans behind in Afghanistan to be tortured and killed by the Taliban to the totalitarian and, quite frankly, fascist way he has delivered an ultimatum to American Business Owners, Biden has proven that he and his Handlers are exactly what they accused Donald J. Trump of being.

Even as the fence was being rebuilt around the Capitol of our Country, an attempt to install a totalitarian government was proceeding as planned.

The three things that might possibly save this Sovereign Nation from becoming just another failed Marxist oligarchy are our Constitution, our Governmental System of Checks and Balances, and our Traditional Faith and Values System which has allowed this “Land of Liberty” to exist for all these years.

The governors of several states are putting up a valiant fight.

Now, it is time for average Americans to stand up and be heard.

Remember, Liberty is freedom with responsibility.

Fauci Claims That When Lawmakers Criticize Him, “They’re Really Criticizing Science Because I am Science”…Can You Say “Smug”?

On By kingsjesterIn Politics1 Comment

Fauci pleading

FoxNews.com reports that

Dr. Anthony Fauci escalated his spat with some lawmakers over the nation’s COVID-19 response by claiming they oppose “science.”

Fauci has served as the face of the government’s pandemic response, putting him at odds with lawmakers who remain critical of that response. Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., has frequently sparred with Fauci over various statements and policies the president’s chief medical adviser has made or endorsed.

Most recently, Paul blasted Fauci for “obfuscating the truth” about the National Institutes of Health funding gain-of-function research after the organization admitted in a letter to House Oversight Committee Ranking Member James Comer, R-Ky., that a “limited experiment” was indeed conducted.

Fauci, during an interview with “Face the Nation,” dismissed opposition from such lawmakers as “noise,” saying they’re “really criticizing science.”

“Anybody who’s looking at this carefully realizes that there’s a distinct anti-science flavor to this, so if they get up and criticize science, nobody’s going to know what they’re talking about,” Fauci said. “But if they get up and really aim their bullets at Tony Fauci, well people can recognize that there’s a person there, so it’s easy to criticize, but they’re really criticizing science because I represent science.”

Paul took to Twitter Sunday morning to respond to Fauci’s claims, calling it “absolute hubris” for Fauci to declare that he represents science.

“It’s astounding and alarming that a public health bureaucrat would even think to claim such a thing, especially one who has worked so hard to ignore the science of natural immunity,” Paul wrote.

Fauci also dismissed a suggestion from Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, that he should be prosecuted by the attorney general over his comments about the gain-of-function research. Cruz tweeted that “It’s a crime to knowingly lie to Congress, so I asked AG Garland if he’d appoint a special prosecutor to investigate Fauci.”

Fauci laughed at the suggestion, asking, “What happened on January 6th, senator?” He “you’d have to be asleep” not to believe that Republicans are trying to “scapegoat” him.

In a five-tweet Twitter thread issued in response to Fauci’s comment against him on Sunday, Cruz excoriated Fauci as an “unelected technocrat who has distorted science and facts in order to exercise authoritarian control over millions of Americans.”

Saying that Fauci “lives in a liberal world,” Cruz went on to cite the section of the U.S. Code that both he and Paul allege Fauci violated when he testified before a Senate Committee in May that “the NIH has not ever and does not now fund gain-of-function research in the Wuhan Institute of Virology.”

Cruz also blasted Fauci for attempting to deflect lawmakers’ criticism against him by resorting to “ad hominem insults parroting Democrat talking points,” and concluded by reiterating that the DOJ should prosecute him.

“Science”, my hindquarters.

Not since the Nazis has so much totalitarianism been advanced in the name of “science”.

The funding of research into bat viruses done by the Wuhan Institute, under the funding by the EcoHealth Alliance, lasted for over a decade.

Surprise! Surprise! Both the CDC and the NIH are partners of the Ecohealth Alliance.

Just as we found out during the whole charade known as “Russiagate”, there are Professional Bureaucrats who operate behind the scenes of our Federal Government, imperious and seemingly above the law.

Like a spider’s web of intrigue, they move in the shadows, spending our tax money on projects away from the eye of the public…projects like the Bat Virus Research done by the Wuhan Institute of Virology and the University Center For Animal Experiment.

These projects remain unknown by the general public, until something unforeseen happens, like the “accident” at the Wuhan Institute which released COVID-19 on an unsuspecting world.

Former President Trump tried to clean out this rats’ nest of Professional Bureaucrats, naming them the Washington Swamp.

Unfortunately, he did not succeed and they eventually were able to arrange for a demented old man to be appointed the 46th President of the United States of America.

The entire COVID-19 Catastrophe and Washington’s behind-the-scenes machinations during it, which resulted in a nationwide lockdown and a “radical change” to our American way of life, has been all about controlling average Americans to get them used to having their individual freedom taken away from them.

The revelations of the last several months concerning the Washington Swamp’s involvement and especially that of Dr. Anthony Fauci’s subterfuge concerning the funding of COVID-19 is just the beginning of horrifying things which were done in the darkness by bureaucrats which are about to find themselves illuminated by the light of truth.

Dr. Tony Fauci is an egomaniacal career bureaucrat advancing the cause of totalitarianism and governmental control of Americans’ lives from cradle-to-grave in the name of “science”.

And, since Biden and his Handlers will not fire his…it is time for Americans to simply ignore him.

HHS Sec. Becerra, a “Devout Catholic” Revokes Trump’s Waivers for Faith-Based Charities, Texas Bishop Says “Maybe We Should Send Him a Cathechism”..How About a Bible?

On By kingsjesterIn PoliticsLeave a comment

If we ever forget that we are One Nation Under God, then we will be a nation gone under. – President Ronald Reagan
 
FoxNews.com reports that

Health and Human Services (HHS) Sec. Xavier Becerra, a self-described Catholic, might need to revisit his faith’s catechism, Bishop Joseph Strickland suggested on Wednesday.

Fox News asked Strickland, who oversees the diocese of Tyler, Texas, about Becerra’s department revoking waivers for faith-based child welfare groups and altering enforcement provisions for religious liberty.

“More brokenness from so[-]called Catholics,” Strickland told Fox News. He added that “maybe we should send him a Catechism.”

The catechism, which lays out doctrine for the Catholic faith, asserts that religious liberty is a “natural right” that “ought to be acknowledged in the juridical order of society in such a way that it constitutes a civil right.”

It adds that the right has inherent limits, which “must be determined for each social situation by political prudence, according to the requirements of the common good and ratified by the civil authority.”

Last week, HHS announced that it would revoke waivers for faith-based entities, such as foster care organizations that refused to serve same-sex couples. Becerra said at the time that “we treat any violation of civil rights or religious freedoms seriously.” That statement echoed others he made during his confirmation hearing but didn’t resemble his actions, critics have said.

HHS did not immediately respond to Fox News’ request for comment. In a press release last week, the department defended its decision to revoke the waivers.

“The waivers are inconsistent with the Department’s critical goal of combating discrimination based on religion, sexual orientation, and gender identity,” it read.

In January, bishops across the country said the order didn’t properly account for religious liberty and furthered “false theories on human sexuality.”

The order, they said, “threatens to infringe the rights of people who recognize the truth of sexual difference or who uphold the institution of lifelong marriage between one man and one woman. This may manifest in mandates that, for example, erode health care conscience rights or needed and time-honored sex-specific spaces and activities.”

The USCCB did not immediately respond to Fox News’ request for comment.

Catholic leaders have generally maintained a distinction between individuals and relationships on this particular issue.

The Catechism reads: “Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity, tradition has always declared that ‘homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered,'” referencing a document from the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. “They are contrary to the natural law,” it added.

It also states that individuals with “deep-seated homosexual tendencies” “must be accepted with respect, compassion, and sensitivity. Every sign of unjust discrimination in their regard should be avoided.”

However, Catholic teaching also emphasizes the importance of religious freedom, stating: “The right to the exercise of freedom, especially in religious and moral matters, is an inalienable requirement of the dignity of man. But the exercise of freedom does not entail the putative right to say or do anything.”

For several decades now, the Democratic Party, relying on Far Left Ideologues or their own opinion as their “highest authority”, have made a determined effort 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, Modern American Liberals want 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.

Being filled with human beings, America’s churches have made a lot of mistakes, However, they have also done a lot of good in the Name of the Lord.

For example, the church I attend, helps support a Food Pantry, operated in co-operation with other churches in our area, which feeds 2,000 people per month, counseling them, and getting them the assistance that they need.

Churches today have to walk a fine line.

The spiritual battle raging between the influence of American Popular Culture and those seeking the Will of God in their lives, takes all the strength…and prayer, that Christians can muster.

Modern Liberals seem to have great difficulty comprehending the role which Our Creator, the God of Abraham, played and plays in this Grand Experiment, known as the United States of America.

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?

And, a second and final thought occurred to me after hearing that President Biden did not invoke the Name of the God of Abraham in his National Day of Prayer Proclamation..

The Democrats “War on Traditional American Christianity” is why the Democrats lost on November 8, 2016 and why they had to cheat to win in 2020.

For…

The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, they do abominable deeds; there is none who does good. – Psalms 14:1

Former President Trump once said,

“Our opponents (the Far Left Democratic Party) want to shut out God from the public square so they can impose their extreme anti-religious and socialist agenda on America.”

He certainly nailed that one, didn’t he?

Until He Comes,

New COVID Variant identified, NY Governor Issues Emergency Order, Biden Issues Africa Travel Ban After Opposing Trump’s COVID-19 Travel Ban

On By kingsjesterIn PoliticsLeave a comment

Biden Travel Ban

FoxNews.com reports that

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul issued a state of emergency order on Friday in response to the identification of the COVID-19 omicron variant.

The emergency order is intended to increase hospital capacity in New York and will last until at least Jan. 15, when it will be reassessed.

According to a copy of the order, the state will utilize the “surge and flex system,” which allows the Department of Health to limit non-essential and non-urgent hospital procedures in situations where a hospital has less than 10% staffed bed capacity.

The new hospital procedures will take effect Dec. 3.

Gov. Hochul said while the omicron variant hasn’t been detected in New York state, preparations need to be made, adding that the state is seeing “warning signs” of a potential spike in cases.

“We’ve taken extraordinary action to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and combat this pandemic. However, we continue to see warning signs of spikes this upcoming winter, and while the new Omicron variant has yet to be detected in New York State, it’s coming,” Gov. Hochul said in a press release.

“In preparation, I am announcing urgent steps today to expand hospital capacity and help ensure our hospital systems can tackle any challenges posed by the pandemic as we head into the winter months,” Hochul added. “The vaccine remains one of our greatest weapons in fighting the pandemic, and I encourage every New Yorker to get vaccinated, and get the booster if you’re fully vaccinated.”

The move comes after President Biden announced a restriction on travel from South Africa and seven other countries in the region beginning Monday.

The World Health Organization announced Friday that the omicron variant has a “large number of mutations … some of which are concerning.”

The variant has been detected in Botswana, Zimbabwe, Namibia, Lesotho, Eswatini, Mozambique and Malawi.

Curiouser and curiouser.

Isn’t it quite a coincidence how shortly after Bid Pharma announced that there was a COVID-19 Vaccine available for small children and Biden announced that he was going to push for a mandate to get our children and grandchildren vaccinated, a new variant pops up out of nowhere that is especially harmful to small children?

Do you remember how the Democrat Elite, include Biden, acted when Trump placed overseas Travel Bans in place to protect our country from COVID-19?

They thought that it was the worst form of Xenophobic Fascism that they had ever scene.

And now, Biden is going to put in place Travel Bans for the same reason that Trump did. Or, maybe not.

You see, boys and girls, at this point, that is what all of these mandates and hyperventilating about COVID-19 by the Biden Administration and the Democrat Elite is all about.

It is about controlling the “proletariat”, so that the “Politburo” (i.e. Democrat Elite) can go forward with their plans to install Marxism as the for of government in power in Washington, D.C.

Ever step that the Biden Administration has taken to “slow the spread” of COVID019 has had a political motivation behind it.

And, they have not been very successful.

The success of Governor Ron DeSantis’ health plan of personal Responsibility and freedom in dealing with COVID-19 is driving the Dems batty.

I believe that, at this point, the Dems are coming up with these new variants simply to keep Americans afraid to live their lives as the see fit.

Individual Freedom is contrary to the Marxist Central Government which the Dems are attempting to set up in America.

Americans are waking up to this fact and they are beginning to simply ignore these COVID-19 Mandates because they view them for what they are: a political strategy designed to take away Americans’ freedom.

There is going to be a Political Tsunami involving the Midterm Elections of 2022.

And, the results are going to be “radical change” that every Patriotic American can get behind.

Trump’s Thanksgiving Message: “We Will Be Great Again!”…Is He Running??!!

On By kingsjesterIn PoliticsLeave a comment

Trump 2024

FoxNews.com reports that

Former President Donald Trump issued a Thanksgiving message on Thursday that hinted at a possible 2024 presidential run.

“A very interesting time in our Country, but do not worry, we will be great again—and we will all do it together,” the former Republican president said in the statement, which was shared on Twitter by his spokeswoman, Liz Harrington.

The statement played off Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign slogan, “Make America Great Again,” fueling speculation that he is planning a political comeback. Trump told Fox News earlier this month that he will “probably” wait until after the 2022 midterm elections to formally announce whether he will run again in 2024.

“I am certainly thinking about it and we’ll see,” Trump said. “I think a lot of people will be very happy, frankly, with the decision, and probably will announce that after the midterms.”

I hope and pray that “The Boss” will run again.

Trump was and IS right…about EVERYTHING.

I have to tell y’all…it was and is always great to watch the 45th President of the United States of America do what he does best: communicate directly with average Americans at his rallies.

Talk about a breath of fresh air,

I will take the brash honesty and “mean Tweets” of Donald J. Trump over the anti-American Policies, ineptitude, and prevarications of Dementia Joe and Heels Up Harris any day of the week.

Trump LOVES America and her people, instead of viewing us all as racist, misogynist, xenophobes…the 45th President of the United States of America, Donald J. Trump.

Just like Trump did, with his refusal early in his first Presidential campaign to “act more presidential”, he is still taking his message directly to the American People.

You see, Gentle Readers, Trump has always been a “people person”.

That is the reason that, when he was still a contributor to Fox News, he would speak to everyone in the building, from the maintenance crew, on up the ladder.

As Sam Walton, the Founder of Walmart, knew, you don’t inspire people by acting imperious and above it all.

“Mr. Sam”, until his health would no longer allow him to do so, would travel to Walmart Stores in his old pickup truck, with a tie and a baseball cap on, visiting the employees, in order to find out how his stores were doing.

He knew that the only way to be successful and to stay in touch with the public, was to be out among them, and speak to them honestly and directly, as one would speak to a friend.

Just as President Trump did when he went on a “Thank You” Tour after being elected in 2016 and his use of Twitter to speak directly to the American People.

The Political Establishment, of both parties, lost that concept, a long time ago.

Bypassing the borders to communication, historically determined by both political parties and the Main Stream Media, is a concept which I first witnessed being used by a Presidential Candidate in the 1980 Presidential Election, the legendary Ronald Wilson Reagan.

While I am not comparing the two, I am noting that this strategy has proved effective for both men.

As America witnessed last night, Trump continues to strike a resonant chord in the hearts of Average Americans, living in the part of America, which the snobbish Political Elites refer to as “Flyover Country”, but which we refer to as “America’s Heartland”, or, quite simply, “HOME”.

The reason being, President Trump kept his promises.

He does not talk down to us while disparaging our Sovereign Nation, as Sleepy Joe Biden, “Dr.” Jill Biden, and Kamala Harris do..

Trump talks to us in a plain-spoken, clearly understood way, a style which is in stark contrast to a Far Left Democrat party full of professional politicians, whose only interest is the totalitarian retention of power in Washington, D.C., at whatever the cost.

Even now, when he holds one of his rallies, the Former President of the United States of America makes Americans average Americans, feel good about ourselves and the future of our Sovereign Nation

And, gentle readers, to see and hear a Former, and possibly Future American President who genuinely loves this country and her people and who was willing to give up his “lifestyle of the rich and famous” in order to secure a safe and prosperous future for American Citizens is indeed a “radical change” from what this country is experiencing coming out of the Oval Office now.

P.S. Trump/DeSantis 2024

Until He Comes,

Thanksgiving 2021: A Time for Americans to Give Thanks for the Blessings of Liberty and the “Average Americans” Who are Still Making a Difference

On By kingsjesterIn Christianity, PoliticsLeave a comment

image-11-first-thanksgiving-at-plymouth1

Thanksgiving Day.

Simply saying the words to myself brings back a flood of precious memories…memories of Thanksgivings past, as a child, surrounded by aunts, uncles, cousins, my sisters, and my Mother and Daddy…smells of sage dressing and oven-roasted turkey…followed by the feeling of having an over-stuffed stomach…all topped by the sounds of laughter and the sight of my aunts and uncles, all members of America’s Greatest Generation, being led in a penny-ante poker game after the Thanksgiving meal by my Daddy, the finest man I have ever known…all of them enjoying each other’s company as they reveled in the wonderful completeness of being a family.

Thanksgiving is a uniquely American Holiday…as unique as the nation which celebrates it.

In 1621, a small group of Plymouth colonists and Wampanoag Indians shared a feast celebrating the autumn harvest. This is acknowledged today as one of the first Thanksgiving celebrations in the colonies.

However, Thanksgiving is much more than this.

Thanksgiving is a day when Americans thank their Creator for the blessings they have received during the year, while holding hope and expectation in their hearts for the blessings yet to come.

The Father of Our Country expressed his thankfulness concerning God and America, when he announced this holiday in 1789:

Whereas it is the duty of all Nations to acknowledge the providence of almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly to implore his protection and favor – and Whereas both Houses of Congress have by their joint Committee requested me “to recommend to the People of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness.”

Now therefore I do recommend and assign Thursday the 26th day of November next to be devoted by the People of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being, who is the beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be – That we may then all unite in rendering unto him our sincere and humble thanks – for his kind care and protection of the People of this country previous to their becoming a Nation – for the signal and manifold mercies, and the favorable interpositions of his providence, which we experienced in the course and conclusion of the late war –for the great degree of tranquillity, union, and plenty, which we have since enjoyed – for the peaceable and rational manner in which we have been enabled to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national One now lately instituted, for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed, and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and in general for all the great and various favors which he hath been pleased to confer upon us.

And also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech him to pardon our national and other transgressions – to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually – to render our national government a blessing to all the People, by constantly being a government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed – to protect and guide all Sovereigns and Nations (especially such as have shewn kindness unto us) and to bless them with good government, peace, and concord – To promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the increase of science among them and Us – and generally to grant unto all mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as he alone knows to be best.

Given under my hand at the City of New York the third day of October in the year of our Lord 1789. – United States President George Washington.

On November 15, 1985, in the first year of his second term, President Ronald Reagan issued the following proclamation…

Although the time and date of the first American thanksgiving observance may be uncertain, there is no question but that this treasured custom derives from our Judeo-Christian heritage. “Unto Three, O God, do we give thanks,” the Psalmist sang, praising God not only for the “wondrous works” of His creation, but for loving guidance and deliverance from dangers.

A band of settlers arriving in Maine in 1607 held a service of thanks for their safe journey, and twelve years later settlers in Virginia set aside a day of thanksgiving for their survival. In 1621 Governor William Bradford created the most famous of all such observances at Plymouth Colony when a bounteous harvest prompted him to proclaim a special day “to render thanksgiving to the Almighty God for all His blessings.” The Spaniards in California and the Dutch in New Amsterdam also held services to give public thanks to God.

In 1777, during our War of Independence, the Continental Congress set aside a day for thanksgiving and praise for our victory at the battle of Saratoga. It was the first time all the colonies took part in such an event on the same day. The following year, upon news that France was coming to our aid, George Washington at Valley Forge prescribed a special day of thanksgiving. Later, as our first President, he responded to a Congressional petition by declaring Thursday, November 26, 1789, the first Thanksgiving Day of the United States of America.

Although there were many state and national thanksgiving days proclaimed in the ensuing years, it was the tireless crusade of one woman, Sarah Josepha Hale, that finally led to the establishment of this beautiful feast as an annual nationwide observance. Her editorials so touched the heart of Abraham Lincoln that in 1863 – even in the midst of the civil War – he enjoined his countrymen to be mindful of their many blessings, cautioning them not to forget “the source from which they come,” that they are “the gracious gifts of the Most High God…” Who ought to be thanked “with one heart and one voice by the whole American People.”

It is in that spirit that I now invite all Americans to take part again in this beautiful tradition with its roots deep in our history and deeper still in our hearts. We manifest our gratitude to God for the many blessings he has showered upon our land and upon its people.

In this season of Thanksgiving we are grateful for our abundant harvests and the productivity of our industries; for the discoveries of our laboratories; for the researches of our scientists and scholars; for the achievements of our artists, musicians, writers, clergy, teachers, physicians, businessmen, engineers, public servants, farmers, mechanics, artisans, and workers of every sort whose honest toil of mind and body in a free land rewards them and their families and enriches our entire Nation.

Let us thank God for our families, friends, and neighbors, and for the joy of this very festival we celebrate in His name. Let every house of worship in the land and every home and every heart be filled with the spirit of gratitude and praise and love on this Thanksgiving Day.

On this Thanksgiving Day 2021, I’m thankful for Americans who are still making a difference.  “Average Americans” who still love God and country, and stand on principle with their feet planted on a Solid Rock, and not on shifting sands.

The “Average American”, the 9 to 5′er, working himself into the grave to try to provide for his family.

It was this same “Average American”, who fired the shot heard around the world and began the War for American Independence, who stormed the beaches of Normandy on D-Day in World War II, who waded through rice paddies in Vietnam, and who swallowed sand in Desert Storm and Desert Shield.

The same “Average American” who, as a New York City Policeman or Fireman, ran up the stairs of the World Trade Center on 9/11/01, instead of running down them.

The same “Average American”, who simply wants things to be easier in this life for his children and grandchildren, than he had it.

It is this same “Average American”, who takes family and friends in, when they are in the midst of a life-altering tragedy.

The same “Average American”, who volunteers on a soup line or at a Senior Citizens Home, or, who begins a successful business in his basement.

They are the reason we remain, in spite of all that has befallen us as a nation, the Greatest Country on the Face of the Earth, despite what those who are presently trying to take away our right as Americans to live and raise our children and grandchildren as we see fit.

They are also the reason that we will “Save America”.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Until He Comes,

KJ
