Memorial Day 2023: Liberty is Freedom With Responsibility

On By kingsjesterIn PoliticsLeave a comment


Memorial Day isn’t just about honoring veterans, its honoring those who lost their lives. Veterans had the fortune of coming home. For us, that’s a reminder of when we come home we still have a responsibility to serve. It’s a continuation of service that honors our country and those who fell defending it. – Pete Hegseth
Today is a day of solemn remembrance, during which we honor our fallen heroes.
Memorial Day, originally called Decoration Day, is a day of remembrance for those who have died in our nation’s service. There are many stories as to its actual beginnings, with over two dozen cities and towns laying claim to being the birthplace of Memorial Day. There is also evidence that organized women’s groups in the South were decorating graves before the end of the Civil War: a hymn published in 1867, “Kneel Where Our Loves are Sleeping” by Nella L. Sweet carried the dedication “To The Ladies of the South who are Decorating the Graves of the Confederate Dead” (Source: Duke University’s Historic American Sheet Music, 1850-1920). While Waterloo N.Y. was officially declared the birthplace of Memorial Day by President Lyndon Johnson in May 1966, it’s difficult to prove conclusively the origins of the day. It is more likely that it had many separate beginnings; each of those towns and every planned or spontaneous gathering of people to honor the war dead in the 1860’s tapped into the general human need to honor our dead, each contributed honorably to the growing movement that culminated in Gen Logan giving his official proclamation in 1868. It is not important who was the very first, what is important is that Memorial Day was established. Memorial Day is not about division. It is about reconciliation; it is about coming together to honor those who gave their all.
Memorial Day was officially proclaimed on 5 May 1868 by General John Logan, national commander of the Grand Army of the Republic, in his General Order No. 11, and was first observed on 30 May 1868, when flowers were placed on the graves of Union and Confederate soldiers at Arlington National Cemetery. The first state to officially recognize the holiday was New York in 1873. By 1890 it was recognized by all of the northern states. The South refused to acknowledge the day, honoring their dead on separate days until after World War I (when the holiday changed from honoring just those who died fighting in the Civil War to honoring Americans who died fighting in any war). It is now celebrated in almost every State on the last Monday in May (passed by Congress with the National Holiday Act of 1971 (P.L. 90 – 363) to ensure a three day weekend for Federal holidays), though several southern states have an additional separate day for honoring the Confederate war dead: January 19 in Texas, April 26 in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, and Mississippi; May 10 in South Carolina; and June 3 (Jefferson Davis’ birthday) in Louisiana and Tennessee.
As I sat down to write today’s post, I tried to think about something pithy to write. Then, I realized that today is not a day for witticisms and sarcasm.
I thought about all of the American lives, all of the brave men and women who have sacrificed their lives out of love and devotion for our Sovereign Nation and their fellow Americans, both their comrades and their families back home.
The unselfish devotion shown by these brave Americans is made fun of and remains the source of derision by many devotees of the anti-American political philosophy who consider themselves to be the “smartest people in the room”.
These same “enlightened” individuals consider “patriotism” to be a bad word.
They have replaced it words like “nationalism” and “jingoism”.
The devotees of this political philosophy do not believe in American Exceptionalism.
They believe that America is “just another country”, certainly not worthy of sacrificing their lives for.
These people just don’t get it.
Freedom is not free.
That is why brave men and women of the past and the present age have fought and died while wearing the uniforms of our Armed Forces.
When they went into battle, they did not just represent their hometowns…they represented all of us.
From the germ of an idea to the greatest country on the face of God’s green Earth, this country has stood strong because of resolute men and women who were willing to “pledge their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor” to protect “The Shining City Upon a Hill”.
Today, standing up and being vocal in our opposition to those who would “radically change” EVERYTHING that these American Heroes and Heroines fought and died for is our “charge to keep”.
Because…

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. – John 15:13-17

May God bless and comfort the families of our Fallen Heroes and may their memories and our American Freedom endure.

Saturday Morning Thoughts: The Fight for America

On By kingsjesterIn Christianity, PoliticsLeave a comment

I’m sitting here on a Saturday morning thinking about our country.

As a Christian Conservative, I realize that I am writing from the point of view that, if you listen to all the pundits and look at the weighted polls, is deemed to be not as popular as it once was.

I also realize that being 64 years-old, my upbringing has a lot to do with my viewpoint.

Thank God.

My father, as I have recounted in previous posts, landed on Nomandy Beach on D-Day, and was a caring, gentle Christian American who fought for his country and for the freedom of others.

My mother was one of 7 children of a barber. She worked hard all of her life and was stubborn and outspoken.

All that being said, here is what I see going on in our Sovereign Nation.

I see an undermining of traditional American faith and values which has been happening for three generations and is presently coming to a head in the form of the same dictatorial fascism which brave Americans like my father fought and died for to prevent it from destroying all that they held sacred.

This fascism has taken the form of government programs created by professional politicians to “help” Americans…and to make themselves rich.

These programs were also designed to take the power away from the American people and to centralize it in the form of a massive government that would run our lives from cradle to grave.

The proponents of this “central government” have tried for all these years to take the place of our parents and to be the ones who teach us how to feel about morality, faith, and each other. They told us that morality is relative and is based on whether something feels good sexually or helps us to “get ahead” without hard work.

These “New Fascists” have told us that all paths lead to God, which is in opposition to the faith of our Founding Fathers, and the faith that those of us in previous generations had been raised on and believe to this day.

In order to keep us powerless, they have told us that we should hate each other based on the color of skin and how successful we have become through hard work and well-made decisions.

They have masked the true nature of their programs with the help of useful idiots in the Corporate Media.

Through the use of propaganda and subjective reporting, they have made the minority in this country appear to be the majority, and deviant sexual behavior appear to be normal.

While, at the same time, they have labeled those who believe in Traditional Christian American faith and patriotism as “White Nationalists.”

However, what I have observed is that the majority of Americans still believe in those values even if they don’t voice them.

That is why these “New Fascists” are trying harder than ever to “radically change” our Constitutional Republic into a mob-ruled “Socialist Paradise. “

My friends, please remember that God is in control.

As long as we are willing as Americans to fight for what we believe in, there is still hope for America.

Why do you think that Biden is at 37% popularity in a recent Gallup Poll?

Sunday Morning Thoughts: Who Will Win the Fight for the Soul of America?

On By kingsjesterIn Christianity, PoliticsLeave a comment

For what now seems like an eternity, those on the Left side (along with some of those who claim to be on the Right Side) of the Political Aisle have focused their attention on “radically changing” America.

They soon realized that they simply could not do it through popular culture and educational indoctrination, inundating America’s children with both overt and subliminal imaging designed to countermand the Traditional American Values that they were being raised with, in normal American Households, out here in “Flyover Country”, otherwise known as America’s Heartland…or “the Red States”.
Modern Liberals soon figured out that the way to program Americans into believing that “all paths lead to God” and that cradle-to-grave Nanny-State Government were the new American Standards for living our daily lives, was to turn Christian American Houses of Worship away from being instructors of the Word of God and a sanctuary in which to worship Our Creator, to, instead, being purveyors of the joys of Popular Culture. Wednesday Night Bible Studies were soon replaced by Yoga Classes and Encounter Groups. Religious Leaders were soon quoting philosophy, instead of the Bible in their Sunday Morning Sermons.

And, instead of taking a stand against those things of the world which were directly opposed to what is found in God’s Word, these “new, enlightened” churches started standing up for the “right” of a woman to have her baby prematurely yanked out of her womb with a set of tongs, standing up for the right of Adam to “marry” Steve, and for John to pretend that he is Sally, when the Bible states that marriage is between a man and a woman. and that He created them.

“Progressive Churches” proclaim the equality of all faiths when the Son of God firmly states, in John 14:6, that
“I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”

But, I digress…

So, when is all this Christianity in America going to “fade away” as predicted by “the Smartest People in the Room”?

As polls have shown…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. 

Or else, they would have read historical documents like President George Washington’s Thanksgiving Day Proclamation, written on November 1, 1777, and found at wallbuilders.com:

“The committee appointed to prepare a recommendation to the several states, to set apart a day of public thanksgiving, brought in a report; which was taken into consideration, and agreed to as follows:
Forasmuch as it is the indispensable duty of all men to adore the superintending providence of Almighty God; to acknowledge with gratitude their obligation to him for benefits received, and to implore such farther blessings as they stand in need of; and it having pleased him in his abundant mercy not only to continue to us the innumerable bounties of his common providence, but also smile upon us in the prosecution of a just and necessary war, for the defense and establishment of our unalienable rights and liberties; particularly in that he hath been pleased in so great a measure to prosper the means used for the support of our troops and to crown our arms with most signal success:
It is therefore recommended to the legislative or executive powers of these United States, to set apart Thursday, the 18th day of December next, for solemn thanksgiving and praise; that with one heart and one voice the good people may express the grateful feelings of their hearts, and consecrate themselves to the service of their divine benefactor; and that together with their sincere acknowledgments and offerings, they may join the penitent confession of their manifold sins, whereby they had forfeited every favor, and their humble and earnest supplication that it may please God, through the merits of Jesus Christ, mercifully to forgive and blot them out of remembrance; that it may please him graciously to afford his blessings on the governments of these states respectively, and prosper the public council of the whole; to inspire our commanders both by land and sea, and all under them, with that wisdom and fortitude which may render them fit instruments, under the providence of Almighty God, to secure for these United States the greatest of all blessings, independence and peace; that it may please him to prosper the trade and manufactures of the people and the labor of the husbandman, that our land may yield its increase; to take schools and seminaries of education, so necessary for cultivating the principles of true liberty, virtue and piety, under his nurturing hand, and to prosper the means of religion for the promotion and enlargement of that kingdom which consisteth in righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost.

And it is further recommended, that servile labor, and such recreation as, though at other times innocent, may be unbecoming the purpose of this appointment, be omitted on so solemn an occasion.”


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, Obama and his minions 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.

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.

Far Left Democrats 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 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.

He always does.

The Political Elite and America’s “Great Purge”

On By kingsjesterIn PoliticsLeave a comment

“Great Purge, also called purge trials, three widely publicized show trials and a series of closed, unpublicized trials held in the Soviet Union during the late 1930s, in which many prominent Old Bolsheviks were found guilty of treason and executed or imprisoned. All the evidence presented in court was derived from preliminary examinations of the defendants and from their confessions. It was subsequently established that the accused were innocent, that the cases were fabricated by the secret police (NKVD), and that the confessions were made under pressure of intensive torture and intimidation.

The trials successfully eliminated the major real and potential political rivals and critics of Joseph Stalin. The trials were the public aspect of the widespread purge that sent millions of alleged “enemies of the people” to prison camps in the 1930s.” (Courtesy www.britannica.com)

Sound familiar?

What Americans have been witnessing, since Donald J Trump came down that escalator to announce that he was running for President, is the birth and maturation of an American “Great Purge”, initiated by the “Progessive” fascists of the Far Left Democratic Elite and supported by Vichy Republicans determined to preserve the Washington Status Quo.

These forces of the totalitarian Deep State have identified and isolated Trump as the point of the spear of those who oppose their campaign to “radically change” our Sovereign Nation, and are moving to indict him and imprison him in order to minimize the political clout of those who they call “Nationalists”, and whom we call patriotic average Americans.

And now, through the installation of a Dementia-riddled puppet president, they have weaponized the Department of Justice into a political weapon in order to facilitate their own version of the Soviet Union’s Great Purge.

Through the use of a willing Main Stream Media and the cooperation of Leftist Social Media Oligarchs, this New Politboro has brainwashed a generation of “useful idiots ” into believing that Traditional American Individualism is bad and cradle-to-grave amoral fascist governmental control is what is best for this “shameful” country.

The good news is that, at least for now, Patriotic Americans outnumber these totalitarian Marxist fascists.

The bad news is the fact that they are well-organized and well-funded by billionaires like George Soros.

And, no political trick is beneath them.

And, if the announcement that Former President Trump gave yesterday proves to be right, that is exactly what Americans will witness this week.

God protect us.

“Bergdahl” The Sequel: Biden Trades Terrorist For WNBA Player

On By kingsjesterIn PoliticsLeave a comment

“Some Pentagon officials expressed concern over the release of convicted Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout. The Thursday prisoner swap for Brittney Griner left officials worried Bout may return to illegally trafficking weapons, fueling existing conflicts abroad.

Bout, nicknamed the “Merchant of Death,” was serving a 25-year prison sentence in the U.S. for conspiring to kill Americans, delivery of anti-aircraft missiles and aiding a terrorist organization.

“I think there is a concern that [he] would return to doing the same kind of work that he’s done in the past,” said one senior Defense Department official, who spoke anonymously.

National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said that “our national security interest is not going to change” with Bout back in Russia.

“We’re going to make sure that we can defend this country against any and all threats,” Kirby said to CNN on Thursday. “And so, with Mr. Bout being back on the street, we’re going to stay focused on making sure we can defend this country.”

Sen. Bob Menendez, the Democratic chair of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said the trade was far from equal.

“We cannot ignore that releasing Bout back into the world is a deeply disturbing decision,” he said in a statement Thursday. “We must stop inviting dictatorial and rogue regimes to use Americans overseas as bargaining chips, and we must try to do better at encouraging American citizens against traveling to places like Russia where they are primary targets for this type of unlawful detention.” (Courtesy Newsmax.com)

We should have expected a terrorist to be traded by Biden for an America-hating hostage.

For more than 200 years, the United States had a policy of not trading prisoners for American hostages. That policy was irreparably damaged, if not destroyed, in 2014 and, by doing so, Former President Barack Hussein Obama placed a target on the back of every single American – civilian and military alike.

He traded Deserter Private Bowe Bergdahl for 5 Muslim Terrorists.

Six brave American Soldiers lost their lives as a result of Bergdahl’s desertion, due to the search for him and due to mission plans having to be changed . Their names were

  • Staff Sgt. Clayton
  • Bowen Morris Walker
  • Staff Sgt. Kurt Curtiss
  • 2nd Lt. Darryn Andrews
  • Matthew Michael Martinek
  • Staff Sgt. Michael Murphrey

These men served with distinction.

Bergdahl did not.

Brittney Griner did not desert from our Armed Forces.

She was just stupid enough to be vaping THC in a country with strict anti-drug laws.

So now, after Biden’s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan, in which 13 American soldiers lost their lives because of poor Foreign Policy Decisions by Biden and his Administration, Biden once again sacrifices America’s Safety as a Sovereign Nation to appease the Far Left…

…and leaves Americans behind in the hand of our enemy.

Biden needs to be impeached.

Sunday Morning Thoughts: An America Divided by Good Vs. Evil and “Princes and Principalities”

On By kingsjesterIn Christianity, PoliticsLeave a comment

Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter! – Isaiah 5:20

Consider, if you will, a country in which its president’s first action in office was to close a 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 which 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.

“You are traveling through a previously unknown country, a country whose population has politically been torn asunder, a country whose Democratic Leadership have forsworn its traditional faith and values to embrace those of its enemies. A country whose great promise is now being broken, subjugated to the wishes of a political minority who follow the teachings of Karl Marx.

There’s a signpost up ahead. Next stop, Socialist America.”

This country has been pulling apart at the seams since Barack Hussein Obama was elected as our 43rd President.

The direction which the Modern Democratic Party has taken to the Far Left of the Political Spectrum has put them at odds with the majority of Americans who still hold dear the Traditional Faith and Values System upon which our Sovereign Nation was founded.

In an article written for Decision Magazine dated February 12, 2012, America’s Pastor, Rev. Billy Graham, wrote on the subject of “Confusing Evil With Good”. Here are some excerpts…

Humanity has always been dexterous at confusing evil with good. That was Adam and Eve’s problem, and it is our problem today. If evil were not made to appear good, there would be no such thing as temptation. It is in their close similarity that the danger lies.

Modern social righteousness often differs from the righteousness of the Bible. Someone has said: “A wrong deed is right if the majority of people declare it not to be wrong.” By this principle we can see our standards shifting from year to year according to the popular vote! Divorce was once frowned upon by society, and laws against fornication and adultery were strictly enforced. But now divorce is accepted by society, and fornication is glorified in our literature and films.

The Bible says: “Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil.” God has not changed. His standards have not been lowered. God still calls immorality a sin, and the Bible says God is going to judge it.

Honesty was once the hallmark of character. But it has been set aside with an “It’s all right if you don’t get caught” philosophy. Only when we are in court are we required to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

…How do we get our values so mixed up? How do we fall into this trap of Satan? For one thing, we’re shortsighted. We look for shortcuts to happiness. Our lust for immediate pleasure prompts us to think of evil as good.

In one of novelist John Steinbeck’s books he has a character saying: “If it succeeds, they will be thought not crooked but clever.” In our desire to achieve success quickly, it is easy to get our values mixed up and call evil good and good evil.

Another way to call evil good is to say that morals are relative. Someone has said: “As the occasion, so the behavior.” We have changed our moral code to fit our behavior instead of changing our behavior to harmonize with our moral code. Nothing is firm today. We are not on solid ground. Young people are shifting from one side to the other. Morally, they are drifting aimlessly without compass or guide.

Still another way that evil is called good is for the conscience to be perverted, and certainly our consciences today are perverted. But right is right even if nobody is right, and wrong is wrong even if everybody is wrong. God does not change the moral law to suit our behavior.

…The modern conscience has been twisted and distorted so badly that it is difficult to tell what is genuine and what is false.

Self-centeredness is another reason we are so inclined to call evil good. When something brings profit or pleasure to us we are inclined to call evil good, even though we know it is dead wrong. “But it’s what I’ve always wanted,” or, “It’s good for me, although I know it’s wrong” are the alibis we have manufactured to justify evil and call it good.

It is very apparent that there is something that is literally tearing apart the fabric of our country.

The only conclusion that I, as a Christian American can reach, is the fact that our Sovereign Nation is in the midst of SPIRITUAL WARFARE for its very soul.

Make no mistake about it, boys and girls, EVIL EXISTS.

My friends, I believe that we are fighting a war not just against “Enemirs Foreign and Domestic”, but also against “princes and principalities”. Evil is still alive and well and flourishing in a world in which relative morality and situational ethics are increasingly being accepted as normal behavior.

We see it everyday around us.

It inundates the cable news channels and our country’s failing Liberal Newspapers like the New York Times. Heck, you can even see it on Facebook.

Since Cain slew Able with a rock, mankind, because we are all fallen creatures, has had to deal with the presence of evil in our lives.

From the legendary massacres, perpetrated by Vlad the Impaler, to the horrific scenes of Hitler’s Concentration Camps, to the killing fields of Pol Pot, to the massacre of innocent Middle Eastern Christians by Islamic State, to the murders by Chicago Street Gangs every night, the Forces of Evil continue to flourish across the globe.

Who we as a nation are struggling with are those forces who want to turn our country into not just an immoral society, but, an amoral one, whose concept of right and wrong is “Whatever Gets You Through the Night (It’s Alright. It’s Alright.)”, and whose ultimate authority is not the God of Abraham, but a Godless All-Powerful Central Government, whose credo is

From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs. (Karl Marx)

Just as Marxism has failed wherever it has been tried before, so, if allowed to do so, it would lead to America’s downfall.

The galling thing is the fact that, even though American Christians remain 75% of the population, we are propagandized and suppressed by the Liberals in both the Old and New Media, to make it seem as if WE are the Minority, when, in fact, WE are the overwhelming Majority.

It is this New Generation of Amoral Socialists, who have taken over the Democratic Party, who are in fact, just a tiny, albeit vocal, Minority of America’s population.

So, what can an average Christian American, like you and me, do about this “Tyranny of the Minority”?

Christians have to make a choice in these tough times whether to allow those who are attempting to “radically change” our Sovereign Nation, given to us by God into a Democratic Socialist Paradise or…

As the Apostle Paul tells us in Ephesians, we can STAND.

However, you cannot stand without “the full armor of God”. I have found, as have my family and friends, that the better that you are doing, in terms of your Christian Walk, the harder that you will be attacked.

10Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might. 11Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. 12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.…- Ephesians 6:10-12

Now, more than ever, our Christianity as Americans does not and cannot end at Noon on Sunday as we finish watching church services on the internet via our Smart TVs.

“Onward, Christian Soldiers, marching as to war.”

Because believe me, Americans…we are in one.

Pray for our country.

God Bless America.

Until He Comes,

Thanksgiving 2022: Giving Thanks for Our American Freedom and the Average Americans Who Help Us Keep It

On By kingsjesterIn PoliticsLeave a comment

the_first_thanksgiving-8214-960x500

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.

Regardless of what the White House Staff posted yesterday, it is not about sharing a bunch of Talking Points about what a “great” job Dementia-riddled octogenarian Joe Biden is doing as President.

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 2022, 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 “Make America Great Again”.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Friday Night Document Dump: White House Reports 2.3 Million Illegals Enter in Fiscal Year 2022

On By kingsjesterIn PoliticsLeave a comment

“Take me in, tender woman
Take me in, for heaven’s sake
Take me in, tender woman,” sighed the snake
“I saved you,” cried the woman
“And you’ve bitten me, but why?
You know your bite is poisonous and now I’m going to die”
“Oh shut up, silly woman,” said the reptile with a grin
“You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in” – “The Snake”, Al Wilson

“President Joe Biden predictably released his record-breaking illegal migrant border crossing data Friday night, mitigating news coverage, but the Republican National Committee pounced Saturday morning.

More than 2.3 million illegal immigrants have crossed the border in fiscal year 2022, breaking the record Biden’s administration set a year ago by 37%. The total of the two record-setting years of illegal migration under the Biden administration is now 4.7 million.

That figure includes 3.8 million illegals apprehended by Customs and Border Protection and more than 900,000 known gotaways that have escaped Border Patrol. That suggests the number of illegal migrants coming to the U.S. under Biden is likely higher than even his administration reports, border officials say.” (Courtesy Newsmax.com)

During his 2016 Campaign for the Presidency, President Donald J. Trump would recite the words of the classic R & B Song by Al Wilson, “The Snake”, an excerpt from which can be found at the beginning of this post.

In the song, a venomous, evil snake begs a kind-hearted beautiful woman to let him come live with her. Once she lets him in, being true to his nature, he poisons her by biting her.

Trump used the song to drive home his point concerning stopping immigration from those countries who sponsor Radical Islamic Terrorism, until our country can come up with a better screening method to prevent what has happening to the U.K.,France, and other European countries with open borders and lax immigration laws.

Europe’s “Muslim Problem” is a demonstration as to what happens when a non-indigenous population moves into a country and does not assimilate into the normal traditions and customs of that nation, and, instead, keep their own traditions and laws, separating themselves from the indigenous population in the name of “multiculturalism”, the opposite of the “Melting Pot”, which helped to form the greatest nation on the face of the Earth, the United States of America.

By bringing “their own country” with them, they have no impetus to become patriotic citizens of their host country, and are therefore, in their own minds, not subject to the laws of that nation, leading to their own internal justification of any acts of violence that they may take against the indigenous citizens of their host country.

Y’know, boys and girls, I have been saying for a long time now, that if the Democrats had their way regarding illegal immigration America would turn into a Third World “Democratic Socialist” Paradise, like Venezuela and Cuba.

Even the Dems, like Rep. Henry Cuellar from Texas, have been concerned that Biden and his Handers do not have a clue as to what they are doing in regards to the way that they have thrown open our Southern Border to bring in unaccompanied minors, housing them in the cages which Former President Barack Hussein Obama (mm mmm mmmm) built.

It is known that a percentage of these illegals are COVID-19 positive.

If they are being flown into our cities at night with the other illegals, then Biden and his Administration are “recharging” the pandemic.

Since Spring of 2021, they have been flying illegal immigrants secretly into cities like Chattanooga, Tennessee and states like New York and Florida, under the cover of darkness to be distributed into cities across the United States.

These illegals are not just new Future Democrat Voters.

The Democrats will use them as human contagion bearers.

Just as they have fenced in OUR nation’s capitol in order to intimidate and control us, they would have no hesitation to attempt to force another nationwide “Pandemic Lockdown” on American citizens, again.

In countries like Greece, which have allowed the “Democratic Socialists” to take control of their government, the same “game plan” was followed.

Open up the borders, then overwhelm “the system” while raising taxes until businesses go under, placing 40% of the country’s population “working for” the government or on government assistance”.

Think about this:

Just as the Millionaire Democrats on Capital Hill, like Pelosi, live in gated communities to separate themselves from the violence and poverty which they are responsible for, so are they now working in a “gated community” designed to keep “Deplorables” (i.e. average American citizens) out.

Welcome to the USSA, Comrades.

How Calling Good “Evil” and Evil “Good” Has Led America to a “Tyranny of the Minority” – A KJ Analysis

On By kingsjesterIn Christianity, PoliticsLeave a comment

flag-cross-and-bible-91121

Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil;
Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness;
Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes,
And prudent in their own sight! – Isaiah 5:20-21

A lot of Americans, in fact, I would say the majority of us, are thinking, “How in the world did we as a country get in the condition we are in?”

…with crime rampant because of coddling criminals, with young people shooting one another and killing elderly Americans in the street for fun?

…with teachers and school boards attempting to “groom” our children through age-inappropriate “Sex Education” illustrated textbooks, while attempting to hide what they are doing from concerned parents who are not allowed to speak at school board meetings?

…with professional politicians being bought off by special interest groups and foreign governments, including the president?

…with both Main Stream and Social Media being nothing more than a Propaganda Arm of the Democratic Party?

…with America’s “Brightest and Best”, our Armed Forces, being turned into a bunch of socially-engineered “Woke Wussies”?

…with inflation out of control while Americans are being paid to stay at home and encouraged not to work?

…with school children being taught to hate each other and America, our flag, our Pledge of Allegiance, and our National Anthem?

I believe that the very beginnings of the mess which we find ourselves in as a country started with LBJ’s “Great Society”, which led to the dissolution of the Traditional Black Family Unit.

However, America, as we knew it, really started pulling apart at the seams when Barack Hussein Obama was elected as our 43rd President.

And, it wasn’t caused by racism.

It was caused by the acceptance or Relative Morality, Situational Ethics, and Deviant Behavior.

(Yeah…I said it.)

The direction which the Modern Democratic Party has taken since then to the Far Left of the Political Spectrum has put them at odds with the majority of Americans who still hold dear the Traditional Faith and Values System upon which our Sovereign Nation was founded.

Is all this upheaval our nation is feverishly attempting to recover from, with no help from “The Resistance”, “Antifa”, “The Far Left”, or whatever you want to call the Anti-American immature idiots, due to some sort of Satanic Influence attempting to tip the scales in the fight between Good and Evil, across our land?

If you look at 80% of the movies that Tinsel Town produces for public consumption nowadays, they seek to glorify the Powers of Darkness….and they seem to be very popular with young Americans.

Why is the Occult, including Satan and his demons, so fascinating to impressionable young Americans?

People who take the existence of Satan lightly, eventually wind up in some sort of trouble, and those who worship Satan wind up in even greater trouble.

Back in the 1960s, the late, beautiful actress Jayne Mansfield posed for a series of publicity pictures with the Head Priest of the Church of Satan, Anton LaVey. The pictures showing her with LaVey, included several shots of taking their version of Communion, simulating drinking blood from a goblet, offered by the priest. She even wore a pink and black medallion of Satan and the goat-headed Baphomet to the 1966 San Francisco Film Festival. Later, the beautiful actress died in a freak car accident in which she was decapitated.

Now, far be it from me to link one to the other. That is up for you to decide for yourself.

Is all this upheaval our nation is currently facing, caused by the Democrats, their Propaganda Arm, the MSM, and their young minions, due to some sort of Satanic Influence attempting to tip the scales in the fight between Good and Evil, across our land?

John Adams, the second President of these United States, delivered the following message to the Officers of the First Brigade of the Third Division of the Militia of Massachusetts on October 11, 1798:

Gentleman,

While our country remains untainted with the principles and manners which are now producing desolation in so many parts of the world; while she continues sincere, and incapable of insidious and impious policy, we shall have the strongest reason to rejoice in the local destination assigned us by Providence. But should the people of America once become capable of that deep simulation towards one another, and towards foreign nations, which assumes the language of justice and moderation while it is practicing iniquity and extravagance and displays I have received from Major-General Hull and Brigadier, General Walker your unanimous address from Lexington, animated with a martial spirit, and expressed with a military dignity becoming your character and the memorable plains on which it was adopted. In the most captivating manner the charming pictures of candor, frankness, and sincerity, while it is rioting in rapine and insolence, this country will be the most miserable habitation in the World; because we have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge, or gallantry would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.

The reason that our nation is facing the difficulties we are is the belief by those who proclaim themselves to be the “smartest people in the room”, that they are above the old-fashioned, passe notions of morality and ethics, good and evil, and the Sovereignty of God.

In the opinion of this Christian American living in the Heartland, they have made a grave mistake.

Evil exists and these fools opened the door to Satan in our society a long time ago.

When it all comes crashing down around them, what are they going to say?

The Devil made me do it?

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. – Ephesians 6:12

What is the “Liberal World Order”? – A KJ Analysis

On By kingsjesterIn PoliticsLeave a comment

Liberal-World-Order

FoxNews.com reports that

White House economic adviser Brian Deese suggested the pain at the pump was a price Americans had to pay for the “future of the liberal world order,” in a CNN interview on Thursday.

“CNN Newsroom” host Victor Blackwell played a clip of President Biden telling a reporter at Thursday’s NATO Summit that Americans can continue to pay a premium for gas “as long as it takes” to win the war in Ukraine.

Blackwell asked Deese how the White House would respond to Americans worried that they won’t be able to survive paying close to or over $5 a gallon, potentially for “years” to come.

“The military analysts, the Director of National Intelligence say this can be a long war measured in years. I think everybody understands why this is happening. But is it sustainable? What do you say to those families that say, ‘Listen, we can’t afford to pay $4.85 a gallon for months, if not years. This is just not sustainable,'” Blackwell questioned.

Deese initially responded, “What you heard from the president today was a clear articulation of the stakes. This is about the future of the liberal world order, and we have to stand firm.” The comment caused a stir on social media.

So, what is the “Liberal World Order”?

I believe that it is a movement toward eliminating everything that made America great, including our nation’s sovereignty.

For as long as I can remember, there has been a political push to make America “just another country”.

I have had political conversations with Americans who brought up Global Conspiracy Theories involving the Rothchilds, the Illuminati, the Masons, and other clandestine groups.

I believe that this movement is one toward a “One World Government” involving Liberal Politicians in countries all over the world and their wealthy benefactors, aided by the ability in this modern age to fly around the world and to hold video conferences across continents.

I often refer to the “Democrat Elite”, those professional politicians roaming the Halls of Power in Washington, DC, and their wealthy supporters in the Beltway and on the Left Coast who believe themselves to be intellectually superior to average Americans and therefore, in their own minds, worthy to mold and shape our Sovereign Nation into something that it was never meant to be.

This “Liberal World Order” is financed by shadowy, powerful, evil men, like George Soros, who use their wealth and political connections to change the political course of countries around the world.

Lest you think that it is just America’s Far Left Democrat Party who are participating in building this “Liberal World Order”, pay attention to the words and actions of those in Republican Leadership Positions who continuously “reach across the aisle” in support of bills and programs which seek to erode America’s sovereignty and increase the federal government’s control, allowing unwanted intrusion into our daily lives.

However, it is not just the adults whom they seek to control…

When Liberals took control of our Educational System, they began to teach our children that there was no need to be grateful that they were born in America and that America was evil and not better than any other country.

Proponents of this “Liberal World Order” do not believe in our country’s traditional faith and values which embody the rugged individualism which made America great.

In other words, this “Liberal World Order” is Marxism, as practiced in the old Soviet Union and Communist China, on a global scale.

What is even more foreboding, is that this is the time of world domination spoken about in the Book of Revelation in the Holy Bible.

As Americans, we need to speak in a loud and clear voice, electing those who will place the needs of AMERICA and her citizens FIRST, if we have any hope of stemming this tide of future oppression.
