11 States Stand Up to Biden Providing Billions in Welfare to Non-Citizens, as He Tries to Drop Trump’s “Public Charge” Rule

Another corporate giveaway: Biden to provide billions in welfare to non-citizens so employers can pay them less than Americans. It’s a large wealth transfer from U.S. workers to CEOs. – Stephen Miller, Twitter, 3/12/21

FoxNews.com reports that

A coalition of 11 states are seeking to intervene in a lawsuit to challenge the Biden administration’s move to drop a Trump-era policy that restricts immigrants deemed reliant on welfare from receiving green cards.

The “public charge” rule was introduced by the Trump administration in 2019 and expanded the definition of “public charge” as an immigrant who receives one or more designated public benefits for more than 12 months within a 36-month period.

Whether an immigrant would be a “public charge” would affect their chances of getting a green card — as well as other factors such as age, health and education.

Critics said the rule was discriminatory and would disincentivize struggling immigrants from claiming the assistance they need, and launched a legal fight against the move that went up to the Supreme Court.

The Biden administration announced recently it would no longer seek to defend the rule and dropped its legal challenges.

Continuing to defend the rule “is neither in the public interest nor an efficient use of limited government resources,” DHS said in a statement.

The states, led by Arizona, filed a motion this week to intervene in the lawsuit, which would allow the states to petition the Supreme Court to accept review of the case and have the case heard in full.

“It is unconscionable to overwhelm our infrastructure and immigration personnel when we are dealing with the health and economic devastation of the pandemic,” Arizona Attorney Mark General Brnovich said in a statement. “While regardless of one’s position on immigration reform, this reckless violation of federal law is only creating another national crisis and putting additional strains on our state and hardworking Arizona taxpayers.”

The states say they have interest in upholding the rule as implementation would reduce demand on welfare and government assistance that impacts them directly.

Those benefits considered under the rule include Supplemental Security Income (SSI), Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), as well as most forms of Medicaid and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) — commonly known as food stamps. The rule expanded the number of benefits that can be considered from interim guidance issued in 1999.

Joining Arizona in the suit are Alabama, Arkansas, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Montana, Oklahoma, Texas, and West Virginia.

It comes days after Arizona and Montana announced a challenge to the Biden administration’s limiting of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) priorities for arrest and deportation.

Same ol’, same ol’…

The Democrat’s benevolence…OUR MONEY.

So, by giving an individual, who has broken our laws, by entering our Sovereign Nation illegally, Federal Benefits, reserved to provide for the welfare of actual American Citizens, these wannabe Democratic Presidential Candidates somehow believe that they are “taking care” of dutifully executing our Nation’s Laws?

Sure they are.

And Rosie O’Donnell has a “bikini body”. (Let that image settle in for a moment.)

Is breaking into our country, something that should be rewarded?

No.

What makes the current influx of illegal immigrants exempt from the rules and regulations that every other generation of immigrants to this country had to abide by in order to become legal citizens of the greatest nation in the world? By being here illegally, they are not entitled to the same rights as natural-born or naturalized American citizens.

And, yet, even as I write this, they are in our hospitals, taking advantage of our charity and the finest health care system in the world, and driving our streets, with either forged drivers licenses or those obtained from states who have acquiesced and given them to these “undocumented workers”.

This is in no way a human rights issue. Freedom is God-given, and with freedom comes responsibility. With citizenship comes responsibility, like paying taxes and making your own way.

My concerns about the Democrats’ coddling of the illegal aliens and the often-proposed “Path to Citizenship” business, can be divided into three bullet points. (Hey, I’m a Former VP of Marketing. What do you expect?)

1. Patriotism – Will these new “citizens” be willing to fly our flag above theirs? Will they be willing, if called upon, to serve in our Armed Forces, at home or abroad? Will they love this country, more than the one they left?

2. Loyalty – When these “new Americans” achieve the right to vote, are they all going to vote Democrat, so that they can receive more FREE STUFF? Will they honestly embrace our sovereign nation as their new home? Or, will they remain loyal to their country of origin?

3.  Immigration – Are we rewarding illegal behavior, while at the same time, insulting all of the brave souls who have come here legally, seeking a better life for themselves and their families?

I understand that people want a better life for themselves and their children.  Our ancestors were all immigrants in this land, except for American Indians, and they got here by crossing the Bering Straight.  But there is a huge difference between immigrating here legally and sneaking in illegally, between assimilating into an existing culture, and insisting on replacing a country’s existing culture with that of the country you left.

I’m all for assisting anyone in becoming a legal citizen of the United States, if that is their wish.  But, it must be done the right way, and they must accept responsibility for their illegal entry, show a willingness to learn our language, and embrace our American way of life, including respecting the American Flag.

The Far Left Democrats, both in Congress and the Biden Administration, exhibit all the symptoms of a disease that I’ve noticed that all of the Far Left exhibit: Narcissistic-Reality-Denial-Over-Educated-Beyond-Their-Intelligence Syndrome. The patient tends to rely on his self-assumed superior intellect, denying the reality of the world around him to the point of forsaking both his allegiance to and concern for the people of the country that has provided him with both his livelihood and his well-being.

This syndrome seems to be extremely pernicious in academic and political figures. The patient actually believes that he is an expert on everything, to the point where he can write and distribute instructional theses to seasoned professionals while lecturing them in a didactic manner.

The only treatment for Narcissistic-Reality-Denial-Over-Educated-Beyond-Their-Intelligence Syndrome at this time is “refudiation” and isolation. The people who are being affected by these individuals must, in a clear and over-whelming manner, let the patient know that they do not accept their attitude or actions and put them in a “time-out”.

In the case of those in Washington who wish to give illegal aliens all of the rights and “perks” of being an American citizen before they prove themselves worthy of being a solid contributor to American Society, these states, and others who might join them, seeks to put the egotistical Democrat clowns’ red noses in the corner.

Y’know…at the rate that these educated-beyond-their-intelligence, imperious, Marxism-loving, “Social Justice Warrior” buffoons keep obviously virtue-signaling about wanting to intentionally run our nation into the ground, I fully expect each and every one of them, one day soon, to respond to question at one of their press conferences, when asked about the rights and welfare of our veterans and our average hard-working American Citizens, as compared to these Future Democrat Voters whom they are coddling, to answer:

Let them eat arugula!

Biden Attempts to “Cancel” History, Takes Credit for Vaccine Rollout While Insulting Trump

See the source image

FoxNews.com reports that

In his first primetime address to the nation Thursday night, President Biden lobbed barely-conceal criticism at Donald Trump for his handling of the coronavirus pandemic.

“A year ago, we were hit with a virus that was met with silence and spread unchecked, denials for days, weeks then months — that led to more deaths, more infections, more stress, and more loneliness,” the president said. “We lost faith in whether our government and our democracy can deliver on really hard things for the American people.”

Without ever naming the last administration, Biden highlighted issues over which Trump has been criticized, like the importance of wearing a mask and “listening to the science” in deciding how to best reopen the economy.

“A mask, the easiest thing to do to save lives, sometimes it divides us, states pit it against one another instead of working with each other,” he noted, nodding to the recent decision by Republican-led states to lift coronavirus restrictions, including mask mandates.

Biden encouraged Americans to listen to the advice issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in continuing to wear masks “to save lives.”

Trump’s refusal to wear a mask until several months into the pandemic was an issue Biden was critical of throughout the presidential race.

Biden called Dr. Anthony Fauci “one of the most distinguished and trusted voices in the world.” The comment was a contrast to those made by Trump, who was sometimes a sharp critic of Fauci, the top doctor on his White House Coronavirus Task Force.

Biden suggested Americans were not getting honesty from Trump, reflecting on a visit he made to a small business owner in Philadelphia last summer.

“Looking me right in the eye she said, ‘I just want the truth’,” he said, describing what she said she needed most to help her through the pandemic.

“My fellow Americans, you’re owed nothing less than the truth,” the president added.

Biden noted that when he entered office, only eight percent of people 65 and up had received their first shot, contrasting that with the numbers who have gotten the vaccine under his presidency.

The vaccines had only recently been made available when Biden assumed office

Biden highlighted how since entering the White House he has been working with Pfizer, Moderna and John & Johnson to “manufacture and purchase hundreds of millions of doses” of vaccines — meaning 65 percent of elderly people have received the coronavirus vaccine in the last two months.

Trump could not be immediately reached by Fox News for comment.

President Joe BIden accusing Trump of being untruthful is the height of irony.

Biden is battling dementia.

He’s being told what to do and say through an earpiece by Susan Rice, Valerie Jarrett, and Barack Hussein Obama (mm mmm mmmm).

Biden and his staff, including his Press Secretary, Jen Psaki, lie like rugs.

Biden did not originate the drive for vaccinations.

President Donald J. Trump did.

BIden took his vaccination before he even took office.

Operation Warp Speed has exceeded expectations, while all Biden did last night is attempt to falsely seek praise and recognition for “being responsible” for the success of the COVID-19 Vaccines while attempting to trash his predecessor.

Why? Because he is a doddering dementia-riddled old man and his Handlers and the rest of the Democrats are scared of Donald J. Trump.

On June 29th of last year, I asked the following question…

“Why are the Democrats pushing so hard to mandate that an entire nation of free individuals be required to wear masks, as if we were under the rule of the ones responsible for this pandemic, Communist China?

Make no mistake, I believe that the pandemic was/is real.

However, I also believe, just like the riots, that the Far Left Democrats have a political purpose behind their response to COVID-19.

Gentle readers, do you all remember the story about the frog in a pot of water on the stove?

If you slowly adjust the temperature of the water until it reaches the boiling point, the frog will stay in that pot of water until it is boiled alive.

The Far Left Democrats are “testing the waters” to see if they can control a free nation of people like Lenin, Stalin, and Mao controlled the Soviet Union and Communist China.

That is why President Trump left it up to the states in the first place. And, why he is trying to open America back up for business again.

Our American Freedom was paid for through the sacrifices made by courageous men and women.

It was won and it has been maintained at much too dear a cost to lose it by Americans cowering and freely giving it up “to purchase a little temporary safety”.”

The Democrats are now seeing that average Americans are sick of them controlling our lives.

And, Biden’s morose speech last night was all about them “maintaining control” of us.

Joe…we will celebrate the 4th of July with our family and friends like Americans always have.

You can’t take away our FREEDOM.

It was given to us by OUR CREATOR.

Biden’s Press Secretary Says We Don’t Take Trump’s Advice on Immigration…Are They Purposefully Leading America Into a Crisis?

See the source image

Newsmax.com reports that

White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki dismissed criticism by former President Donald Trump regarding a surge in unaccompanied minors crossing the southern border, saying, ”We don’t take our advice or counsel from former President Trump on immigration policy.”

Psaki’s comment came after Trump blasted the Biden administration earlier in the day, issuing a statement through his Save America political action committee that blamed the administration for a ”spiraling tsunami at the border.”

Psaki referred to the Trump administration’s policy as ”ineffective” and ”immoral.”

”Obviously we’re going to have more kids across the — in the country — since we have been letting unaccompanied minors stay,” she said. ”And the last administration immorally kicked them out.”

But critics have said the Biden administration’s policies have created a flood at the border, encouraging and inviting illegal border crossings.

”At the end of the day, the Biden administration, through its policies, is facilitating and encouraging these individuals to come forward across that border illegally,” former Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf told Newsmax TV on Feb. 26.

Psaki’s statements come a day after she steadfastly refused to credit the Trump administration for expediting the development of a vaccine for the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19, instead suggesting that the death toll was the fault of the previous administration.

President Joe Biden and Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas have both rejected the situation at the border situation as a ”crisis.”

However, Texas Democrat Rep. Henry Cuellar released a statement Thursday noting that approximately 10,000 illegal immigrants have been apprehended in the past week in the Del Rio border sector and that the country is ”weeks, maybe even days, away from a crisis.’

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. Cuellar, are 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 illegal minors are COVID-19 positive.

If they are being held with the other illegals, then Biden and his Administration are “recharging” the pandemic.

And, the rumor is that they are going to take these minors to military bases, like Obama did, and then these “children” will be released to “relatives”, making it very possible that America could be headed for another lockdown…which would fit in perfectly in the plans of the Far Left Democrats.

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, the overwhelm “the system” while raise 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.

My 4,000th Blog: Since Biden Won’t Do It, Here is KJ’s State of the Union

See the source image

As the title above says, this is the 4,000th blog that I’ve written on this website.

I’ve been involved in watching the news and observing politics ever since college, when I was named the News Director of my campus radio station, back in 1978. I was on the air when John Lennon was shot and went live with the story.

I cast my very 1st vote in 1980 for Ronald Wilson Reagan.

In 1988, I began listening to Rush Hudson Limbaugh on our local talk radio station in the Memphis area. I was fascinated by what I was hearing. Here was a guy from Cape Girardeau, Missouri who was saying everything that I believed in over my car radio.

In April of 2010, after spending some time in the comments section of hotair.com with a lot of average Americans just like me who became my social media friends and fans, I decided to start a daily blog in which I covered everything from a Christian American Conservative point of view.

Over the years, I’ve been able to satisfy my quest for knowledge and vent over the political affairs of the day in a manner which has actually been read by thousands of people.

According to WordPress, my blog has been read by people from all over the world. And that my friends, is a great honor.

All that being said, please allow me to speak to you about our country and the State of the Union.

The state of the Union is strong.

The Democrats in charge of our country are a bunch of fascists

The first thing they did after assuming power was to put a fence around the Capitol Building and the White House in order to keep us from holding them accountable for the passage of laws and executive orders which the overwhelming majority of average Americans would not and do not agree with.

Just like when Vladimir Lenin and the Bolsheviks took over Russia, the Democrats installed a vacillating, incompetent figurehead in Joe Biden to take a seat in the Oval Office, preceded by great men whom he cannot possibly measure up to in his diminished state.

I give Biden less than a year, as he is visibly getting worse and worse as he battles dementia.

His puppetmasters, whom I believe to be Barack Hussein Obama, Valerie Jarrett, and Susan rise, will not be able to maintain their illusion of Biden being a working president for long, even speaking in the air piece which he constantly wears

So, who does that leave us as our president?

Vice-President Kamala “Heels Up” Harris, whose only qualification for the office is the fact that she can kick her legs up higher…and wider… than any president before her.

Yeah… I said it.

Would you like to hear some good news?

The overwhelming majority of average Americans still believe in the traditional Faith and Values System of our fathers and forefathers. We still love God, our family, and our country.

The Democrats know this. That is another reason why they have built a fence around Washington. They are scared of us. And, rightfully so.

Today, at 2:30 p.m. Central, at the annual CPAC Convention, being held in sunny Florida, Former President Donald J. Trump is going to deliver a stemwinder of a speech in which he will lay the future of our nation out for us. He is going to continue to fight for us.

Trump is going to outline a strategy by which we will take back the House, the Senate, and the Presidency. Before he’s done speaking today, the bureaucrats in Washington, D.C., the Democrats on Capitol Hill, and their minions in the Main Stream Media are going to wet their pants and need to find safe spaces.

In conclusion, I believe that our forefathers provided an example which we should follow over the next 4 years. After enduring persecution for generations, they loaded their families into sailing ships and set out across the Atlantic for months at a time to a new land filled with unknown peril. They did this so they could escape tyrannical despots and worship God as they pleased. Then the landed, they forged a new country out of the wilderness. A land which was destined to be the greatest country on the face of the Earth.

Over the next 4 years, as average Americans, it will be our job to fight to preserve this country…to fulfil the vision of our forefathers through strength, courage, love, and a reverence for the Creator who gave us this Sacred Land and our Founding Documents to guide us.

It won’t be easy. Doing the right thing never is.

I can and will promise you one thing :

I will keep writing…

Psaki: Biden Supports Cuban Not Playing the National Anthem Before Games Because “of the Times We as a Country Haven’t Lived Up to Our Highest Ideals”

See the source image

It is the night of September 13, 1814.  The British fleet are bombarding Fort McHenry in the harbor at Baltimore, Maryland. Francis Scott Key, a 34-year old lawyer-poet, is watching the attack from the deck of a British prisoner-exchange ship. Key had gone seeking the release of a friend. They were told that they had to remain aboard the vessel until the end of the attack. When the battle was over, the following morning, Key had his telescope on the fort and saw the American flag was still waving. The sight of the tattered Stars and Stripes was so moving that he pulled a letter from his pocket and began to write the poem. This poem eventually became the national anthem of the United States – “The Star Spangled Banner”.

Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn’s early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro’ the perilous fight’
O’er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming.
And the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

It does, sir. Regardless of  the actions of an ungrateful millionaires and the “America Last” Domestic Policy of a clueless President and his Administration.

TheFederalist.com reports that

White House press secretary Jen Psaki expressed support for Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban’s decision to remove the national anthem from the team’s home games because they “feel [the anthem] doesn’t represent them.”

During the Wednesday press briefing, Fox News’s Peter Doocy asked Psaki about the Biden administration’s stance on Cuban’s decision. While the press secretary acknowledged that President Joe Biden is “proud to be an American and has great respect for the anthem,” she also said he would support the Mavericks for calling out the frequent times when “we as a country haven’t lived up to our highest ideals.”

“He’d also say that, of course, that part of pride in our country means recognizing moments where we as a country haven’t lived up to our highest ideals, which is often, and at times what people are speaking to when they take action at sporting events,” Psaki said. “And it means respecting the right of people, granted to them in the Constitution to peacefully protest. That’s why he ran for president in the first place, and that’s what he’s focused on doing every day.”

Cuban’s decision to rescind the anthem was publicized earlier this week after some noticed the Mavericks, which are currently 11-14, refused to play the “Star-Spangled Banner” at any of their 13 pre-season or 12 regular-season games at the American Airlines Center. Mavericks employees who noticed the stealthy removal said they received no notice or explanation for Cuban’s decision to nix the patriotic song.

Later reports suggest the decision follows a trend by the NBA and other teams in the league to send a social justice message by ignoring or purposefully refusing to “stand and line up in a dignified posture along the foul lines during the playing of the American and/or Canadian national anthems,” as required in NBA policy. This rule was not enforced during the league’s Black Lives Matter campaigning last summer when players knelt during the anthem or even boycotted games after the shooting of Jacob Blake.

“Source close to Mark Cuban says decision to not play Anthem before Mavs games isn’t because they don’t love U.S., but because many feel anthem doesn’t represent them, and they want to continue discussion of how to represent people from all communities when honoring U.S. at game,” one sports writer reported.

Shortly after this story came out, the NBA said that all teams will play the National Anthem before games.

While this story was actually posted a couple of days ago, the sheer ingratitude and tone-deafness of the Biden Administration continues to blow my mind.

No country is perfect because countries are governed by human beings, which are fallen creatures.

However, the United States of America remains the country that everyone wants to come to, legally or otherwise.

Why? 

Because for almost 250 years, this “Shining City Upon a Hill” has had a reputation as a land in which everyone could make their dreams a reality…if they were willing to work to achieve it.

Our economic system of capitalism has been the cause of millions of Americans achieving their dreams and providing for their families.

America is a country chiseled out of the wilderness by rugged individualists who wanted not only the freedom to prosper…but the freedom to worship as they pleased also.

America is a “Sweet Land of Liberty”.

And, Liberty is Freedom with responsibility.

The responsibility to provide for yourself and your family…and to protect our precious liberty if our country goes to war.

The Far Left Democrats could care less about the sacrifices made and the lives lost to secure the Sovereign Nation which is today’s America.

Why?

Because they are a bunch of “useful idiots” who want desperately to “share the wealth” and insult patriotism by calling it “nationalism” in order to “radically change” our proven economic system of capitalism into “Democratic Socialism”, a form of Marxism, a political theory which has never worked in any country in which it has been tried. 

For several generations, Democrats have told the impoverished that “Uncle Sugar” will take care of their every need as long as they keep voting them into public office.

However, these same impoverished Americans found out during the Presidency of Donald J. Trump the rewards of a good job and hard work.

Boys and girls, the reason that the Biden Administration and the rest of the Far Left Democrats do not want Americans to respect the National Anthem is the fact that it reminds Americans of every good and just quality that this nation was founded upon and which kept us strong for almost 250 years.

It fills us with pride and gratitude that we live in the Greatest Country on the Face of the Earth.

Everything that the Far Left Democrats despise.

The Leader of the Russian Revolution, Vladimir Lenin, who brought Marxism to Russia, wrote

“Give me just one generation of youth, and I’ll transform the whole world.”

However, Lady Margaret Thatcher, a close friend of President Ronald Reagan, laid that falsehood to rest with the following quote…

“The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people’s money.”

And, you know what?

I would much rather live in “the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave” than under a failed political system where you can not even buy a decent roll of toilet paper.

SCOTUS Reopens California Churches, “Gated Community” of Capitol Hill Used to Hold Church Services Every Sunday

bible-american-flag1

America is smack dab in the middle of a war involving the devotees of a Far Left Political Ideology who are determined to take away our Constitutional Right to worship Our Creator.

WashingtonExaminer.com reports that

The Supreme Court ruled that California churches can open indoors at 25% capacity.

The Friday decision was a response to lawsuits filed by South Bay United Pentecostal Church in Chula Vista and Harvest Rock Church in Pasadena after they had been unable to hold indoor services.

California has a tiered coronavirus restrictions program. Regions under the severest restrictions, which included the vast majority of the state since November 2020, have not been able to hold indoor worship services.

Per the ruling, which entailed several splintering opinions, the most restricted regions will be able to hold services indoors at 25% capacity, but singing and chanting will still be prohibited.

CHURCHES ARE ESSENTIAL.

Christianity has played a predominant role in the building of our nation. In fact, the Capitol building itself was used for church services, even before Congress moved into the building, and continued to be used for Sunday Church Services until well after the Civil War.

The approval of the Capitol for church was given by both the House and the Senate on December 4, 1800, with House approval being given by Speaker of the House, Theodore Sedgwick, and Senate approval being given by the President of the Senate, Thomas Jefferson, whose approval came while he was still officially the Vice- President but after he had just been elected President.

And now, Capitol Hill is a GATED COMMUNITY.

But, I digress…

According to David Barton at wallbuilders.com:

Jefferson attended church at the Capitol while he was Vice President 5 and also throughout his presidency. The first Capitol church service that Jefferson attended as President was a service preached by Jefferson’s friend, the Rev. John Leland, on January 3, 1802. 6 Significantly, Jefferson attended that Capitol church service just two days after he penned his famous letter containing the “wall of separation between church and state” metaphor.

U. S. Rep. Manasseh Cutler, who also attended church at the Capitol, recorded in his own diary that “He [Jefferson] and his family have constantly attended public worship in the Hall.” Mary Bayard Smith, another attendee at the Capitol services, confirmed: “Mr. Jefferson, during his whole administration, was a most regular attendant.” She noted that Jefferson even had a designated seat at the Capitol church: “The seat he chose the first Sabbath, and the adjoining one (which his private secretary occupied), were ever afterwards by the courtesy of the congregation, left for him and his secretary.” Jefferson was so committed to those services that he would not even allow inclement weather to dissuade him; as Rep. Cutler noted: “It was very rainy, but his [Jefferson’s] ardent zeal brought him through the rain and on horseback to the Hall.” Other diary entries confirm Jefferson’s attendance in spite of bad weather.

…Jefferson was not the only President to attend church at the Capitol. His successor, James Madison, also attended church at the Capitol. 14 However, there was a difference in the way the two arrived for services. Observers noted that Jefferson arrived at church on horseback 15 (it was 1.6 miles from the White House to the Capitol). However, Madison arrived for church in a coach and four. In fact, British diplomat Augustus Foster, who attended services at the Capitol, gave an eloquent description of President Madison arriving at the Capitol for church in a carriage drawn by four white horses.

The series of cacophonous thuds you just heard were the “I’m-smarter than-you” Atheists from both sides of the aisle, falling off their chairs. You see, they (all 8% of them) will argue until they are blue in the face that Jefferson and Madison were not Christians, and our founding documents were not based on a Judeo-Christian system of beliefs.

Then, they go out to feed the unicorn in their backyard.

Jefferson told his friend, William Bradford (who served as Attorney General under President Washington), to make sure of his own spiritual salvation:

[A] watchful eye must be kept on ourselves lest, while we are building ideal monuments of renown and bliss here, we neglect to have our names enrolled in the Annals of Heaven.

Concerning Christianity, Jefferson said:

The doctrines of Jesus are simple, and tend all to the happiness of man.

The practice of morality being necessary for the well being of society, He [God] has taken care to impress its precepts so indelibly on our hearts that they shall not be effaced by the subtleties of our brain. We all agree in the obligation of the moral principles of Jesus and nowhere will they be found delivered in greater purity than in His discourses.

I am a Christian in the only sense in which He wished anyone to be: sincerely attached to His doctrines in preference to all others.

I am a real Christian – that is to say, a disciple of the doctrines of Jesus Christ.

But, what about Jefferson’s re-writing of the Bible, leaving out Jesus’ miracles, you ask? David Barton answered that question in 2001, in a letter to a newspaper, in response to a reader:

The reader, as do many others, claimed that Jefferson omitted all miraculous events of Jesus from his “Bible.” Rarely do those who make this claim let Jefferson speak for himself. Jefferson’s own words explain that his intent for that book was not for it to be a “Bible,” but rather for it to be a primer for the Indians on the teachings of Christ (which is why Jefferson titled that work, “The Life and Morals of Jesus of Nazareth”). What Jefferson did was to take the “red letter” portions of the New Testament and publish these teachings in order to introduce the Indians to Christian morality. And as President of the United States, Jefferson signed a treaty with the Kaskaskia tribe wherein he provided—at the government’s expense—Christian missionaries to the Indians. In fact, Jefferson himself declared, “I am a real Christian, that is to say, a disciple of the doctrines of Jesus.” While many might question this claim, the fact remains that Jefferson called himself a Christian, not a deist.

The other Founding Father whom Atheists claim was one of them is James Madison.

Per David Barton:

James Madison trained for ministry with the Rev. Dr. John Witherspoon, and Madison’s writings are replete with declarations of his faith in God and in Christ. In fact, for proof of this, one only need read his letter to Attorney General Bradford wherein Madison laments that public officials are not bold enough about their Christian faith in public and that public officials should be “fervent advocates in the cause of Christ.” And while Madison did allude to a “wall of separation,” contemporary writers frequently refuse to allow Madison to provide his own definition of that “wall.” According to Madison, the purpose of that “wall” was only to prevent Congress from passing a national law to establish a national religion.

Also, as this writing shows, Madison wanted all public officials – including Bradford – to be unashamed concerning their Christian beliefs and testimony:

I have sometimes thought there could not be a stronger testimony in favor of religion or against temporal enjoyments, even the most rational and manly, than for men who occupy the most honorable and gainful departments and [who] are rising in reputation and wealth, publicly to declare their unsatisfactoriness by becoming fervent advocates in the cause of Christ; and I wish you may give in your evidence in this way.

Did you know that Madison was a member of the committee that authored the 1776 Virginia Bill of Rights and approved of its clause declaring that:

It is the mutual duty of all to practice Christian forbearance, love, and charity toward each other. ?

And, per Barton, Madison’s proposed wording for the First Amendment demonstrates that he opposed only the establishment of a federal denomination, not public religious activities. The proposal reads:

The civil rights of none shall be abridged on account of religious belief or worship, nor shall any national religion be established.

But, wait. There’s more:

In 1789, Madison served on the Congressional committee which authorized, approved, and selected paid Congressional chaplains.

In 1812, President Madison signed a federal bill which economically aided a Bible Society in its goal of the mass distribution of the Bible.

Finally, throughout his Presidency (1809-1816), Madison endorsed public and official religious expressions by issuing several proclamations for national days of prayer, fasting, and thanksgiving.

So, if you run into one of those individuals who, like the Democratic Blue State Governors, when it comes to accepting the Faith of our Founding Fathers, proves that denial is not just a river in Egypt, you can respond with one or all of three things:

Franklin Graham Compares 10 House Republicans Who Voted for 2nd Trump Impeachment to Judas Iscariot

See the source image

I believe with all my heart that standing up for America means standing up for the God who has so blessed our land. We need God’s help to guide our nation through stormy seas. But we can’t expect Him to protect America in a crisis if we just leave Him over on the shelf in our day-to-day living.
– Ronald Reagan

ChristianPost.com reports that

The Rev. Franklin Graham took to social media to slam the 10 House Republicans who voted to impeach President Donald Trump, comparing them to the infamous Judas Iscariot.

“Shame, shame on the ten Republicans who joined with Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats in impeaching President Trump yesterday,” Graham wrote in a Facebook post Thursday. “The House Democrats impeached him because they hate him and want to do as much damage as they can. And these ten, from his own party, joined in the feeding frenzy. It makes you wonder what the thirty pieces of silver were that Speaker Pelosi promised for this betrayal.”

By referencing “thirty pieces of silver,” Graham seemed to be suggesting that the 10 House Republicans who supported Trump’s impeachment were akin to Judas Iscariot, a disciple of Jesus Christ who betrayed him to the Roman authorities in exchange for 30 pieces of silver.

While Graham did not mention them by name, the 10 House Republicans who voted to impeach Trump were Rep. David Valadao, R-Calif., Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill., Rep. Peter Meijer, R-Mich., Rep. Fred Upton, R-Mich., Rep. John Katko, R-N.Y., Rep. Anthony Gonzalez, R-Ohio, Rep. Tom Rice, R-S.C., Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler, R-Wash., Rep. Dan Newhouse, R-Wash., and Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo.

According to Graham, these Republicans’ votes to impeach the president for “incitement of insurrection” constituted a betrayal because of “all that he has done for this country.”

“We have never had a president like him in my lifetime. He gave us lower taxes, a strong economy, and low unemployment. He made NATO take notice and pay their own way. He had the guts to take on North Korea and meet with their leader personally. He didn’t let China walk all over us. Just his Mideast peace initiatives in the last couple of months deserve a Nobel Peace Prize,” he said.

“He has defended religious liberty like no president before him, and that matters to all people of faith. He has worked to bring prison reform and secured our southern border. He defeated the ISIS caliphate in Syria, and he strengthened our military. He was also the most pro-life president we have ever had.”

“The Democrats have been trying to get rid of the president since the day he took office. What they did yesterday only further divides our nation. I hope President-elect Biden will keep his word and work for unity as he has said,” he concluded. Graham has called for Trump, whose term expires Jan. 20, to meet with President-elect Joe Biden, contending that such a meeting would “begin the healing and preparation for a smooth transition.”

He also requested that Vice President-elect Harris as well as Biden’s and Harris’ respective spouses be invited to the meeting.

In addition to praising the president’s record, Graham announced that he took issue with “some of the things the president said and did the last couple of weeks,” referring to Jan. 6 as “a low point in his presidency.”

On Jan. 6, hundreds of fringe Trump supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol as Congress was certifying the electoral college votes of the 2020 presidential election, unleashing violence and vandalism that left five people dead.

The events of Jan. 6 ultimately led to the president’s impeachment, as House Democrats argued that a speech he gave to his supporters urging them to continue protesting the election results incited them to resort to violence.

Violence at the Capitol erupted while Trump was still speaking to hundreds of thousands of his supporters at the Ellipse near the White House before they were to walk to the Capitol for a separate rally where other speakers were scheduled to speak. That event, however, never took place because the riot had already ensued.

Graham condemned the violence, remarking that he was “deeply saddened by what took place in our nation’s capital.”

“Our country is in trouble. We need God’s healing and we need God’s help. Pray for peace and the protection of our nation. Let’s come together — on our knees,” he added.

Unfortunately, Rev. Graham, I do not see that happening anytime soon.

It is going to be impossible for 74 million Americans to forgive Joe Biden, his handlers, and the rest of the Democrat Elite for stealing the 2020 Presidential Election and leaving them disenfranchised.

This country has been pulling apart at the seams since the night of November 8, 2016, which Donald J. Trump was elected as our 45th President.

And the thing is, it is not his fault.

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.

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 the Chinese Coronavirus, 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 riots and escalating murder rates in our Democratically-controlled major cities every night, to those so filled with hate that they rough up a 7 year-old boy simply because he is wearing a Trump baseball cap, 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, facing the aftermath of a rigged Presidential Election and an ongoing Chinese Coronavirus pandemic, our Christianity as Americans does not and can not 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 with three enemies. Two enemies are invisible and one is political.

And, while we can do all things through the One who strengthens us, we can do nothing worthwhile without Him.

Pray for those who are out “on the front line” fighting the Chinese Coronavirus every day and caring for those who are sick with it,

Pray for President Donald J. Trump and his family.

Pray for our country.

And, please God, protect America from those who would attempt to make us worship “The State” instead of You.

Pelosi Tells “60 Minutes” That Trump Should Be Prosecuted and that “Nothing is Off the Table”

See the source image

“If Fascism ever comes to America, it will come in the form of Liberalism.” – Ronald Reagan, “60 Minutes”, 1975

Newsmax.com reports that

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi said President Donald Trump should be prosecuted and that “nothing is off the table” in an interview with 60 Minutes to be televised Sunday.

Pelosi and fellow Democrats have called for Trump’s impeachment in the aftermath of Wednesday’s riot at the Capitol.

“Sadly, the person that’s running the Executive branch is a deranged, unhinged, dangerous president of the United States,” Pelosi said in an excerpt aired Friday on the “CBS Evening News.”

“And we’re only a number of days until we can be protected from him. But he has done something so serious that there should be prosecution against him.”

Demonstrators protesting the presidential election results stormed the Capitol building during a joint session of Congress that met to certify the Electoral College votes. Earlier in the day, Trump addressed a rally of supporters and told them, “We will never give up. We will never concede.”

The president and his supporters have said alleged voter fraud resulted in Joe Biden winning the election. Biden will be inaugurated on Jan. 20.

Pelosi, speaking with correspondent Lesley Stahl, said action should be taken against Trump despite only days remaining for his administration.

The 25th Amendment allows for removing the president from office if the vice president and a majority of the president’s cabinet or Congress agree to the action. Vice President Mike Pence was said to be opposed to invoking the amendment.

It was suggested to Pelosi the 25th Amendment was off the table.

“No, it isn’t,” she said. “Nothing is off the table.”

Three House Democrats said they plan to introduce an article of impeachment against Trump on Monday for incitement of insurrection.

Why are Pelosi and her fellow members of the Washington Swamp so intent on harming a departing President?

According to the Godfather of Conservative Talk Radio, Rush Limbaugh

“The four-year coup, the four-year effort to get the election results of 2016 overturned, there are all kinds of people who broke the law, all kinds of people who are quaking in their boots,” he added. “They’re worried silly that Trump is gonna unleash some of these classified documents.”

Limbaugh also said the establishment is “terrified” that Trump will pardon people dangerous to them.

“The people in the Washington establishment, why did they want to stop Trump in the first place? Because they didn’t want what they have been up to (which is no good) for years to ever come out,” said Limbaugh. “They’re worried to death that he’s got a card or two to play here yet, including the pardon power.”

He added that there was likely a “big sigh of relief” when Trump said he would not go to Biden’s inauguration.

“Imagine if he decided to release a bunch of classified documents right before the inauguration ceremony,” said Limbaugh.

Normally, the Senate would be using the next few weeks to hold hearings on Biden’s cabinet choices, Limbaugh also said, so they can be confirmed by senators on Inauguration day, but not this year.

“Two long, nervous weeks for the Democrats,” Limbaugh said. “Major potential power vacuum. They are scared, folks. Do not doubt me on this.”

Another theory going around is that San Fran Nan believes that President Trump has the laptop which was taken from her  office in the Capitol Building.

I am certain that whoever has it, unless it is encrypted will find things that would not cast a good light on Pelosi or her fellow Democrats and probably some of the Vichy Republicans, as well.

Either theory, or both, could be true.

I believe that she is just plain mean and vindictive…and a Marxism-loving fascist, too.

The entire Democratic Party has gone so far to the left of the Political Spectrum that they believe that only they have a right to speak their opinions and decide the future of our Sovereign Nation.

Look at what has happened in the last three days.

Twitter has banned Trump and his Team, suspended the accounts of other high profile Conservatives, and taking tens of thousands of followers away from others.

When any totalitarian system of government takes over a country, the first thing that they do is to silence all dissension,..by any means necessary.

In the case of the Far Left Democrat-supporting Bit Tech Oligarchs like Jack Dorsey, CEO of Twitter, I means turning his Social Media Giant, Twitter, into a Democrat Echo Chamber.

And, just last night, it was learned that Amazon intends to suspend Parler from its Host Server.

Are you scared? mad? paying attention?

You better be.

The Republicans had better grow some spines immediately and stand up against this attack on our Freedom of Speech.

They and this country are finding out the hard way that President Ronald Regan was exactly right when he said,

To sit back hoping that someday, some way, someone will make things right is to go on feeding the crocodile, hoping he will eat you last – but eat you he will.

First, They Came for President Trump…

This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is trump-looking-out-window-oval-office-2-1.jpg

TheNationalPulse.com reports that

The President of the United States has been removed from social media site Twitter after Democrats falsely accused the President and his supporters of attempting a coup in the United States.

Following increasingly totalitarian moves and speech from Democrats, the media, and Big Tech platforms, the company controlled by Jack Dorsey and linked with the Chinese Communist Party has removed the duly elected, sitting President of the United States.

The disturbingly Orwellian move comes as tens of thousands of conservative accounts were removed from Twitter over the past few days.

President Trump had been urged by his supporters to act against Big Tech tyranny for years, but the White House never viewed it as a priority, nor did most Republicans on Capitol Hill.

Many people argue that without his Twitter account, Trump would not have been able to initially get around mainstream media bans and blackouts of his original 2015/6 campaign.

The President was also removed from Facebook a few days ago.

Section 230 of the Security Communications Act states that

“No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider” (47 U.S.C. § 230)

What this means is that any online service which publishes third party content is protected against a range of laws that might otherwise be used to hold them legally responsible for what others say and do.

The problem is, as was exhibited yesterday, these entities can also be used as a way to limit free speech, if that speech damages the political party which the ownership supports.

There has been shadow banning of Conservatives happening on Twitter for quite some time.

For example, actor James Woods, a noted Conservative possessing a razor-sharp wit, was banned for several months from Twitter.

Other Conservatives have had thousands of followers mysteriously vanish with no logical explanation, a practice which was happening all over the place yesterday..

And, as President Trump once alluded to, Twitter was definitely Pro-Hillary during the 2016 Campaign.

What gets me, is while the President HAD a Twitter Feed, “Bots” and wild-eyed vulgar Liberals were allowed to spam Trump’s Twitter feed, making it almost impossible for average Americans to comment on it.

Why, it was almost like these clowns were getting paid to damage the President. (/sarc)

President Trump was a master of using Twitter to reach out directly to the American people to get his point across unfiltered by the biased Main Stream Media.

He also took delight in “trolling” the Main Stream Media and their masters, the Democratic Party, through its use.

America received daily communication from its 45th President, Citizen Statesman Donald J. Trump.

The vast majority of Americans own cellphones…and have been on Twitter.

That is liable to change.

For years now, I have referred to the intolerant political ideology of Modern American Liberals, such as the Democrat Politicians on Capitol Hill and Jack Dorsey and his minions at Twitter, as “The New Fascism” because of their intolerance toward traditional Americans Faith and Values and their lack of respect for our Constitution and our American System of Law and Order.

What we are seeing now, as regards the  Rigged Election and the inaction by Congress in response to it and now, the silencing of Conservative voices in Social Media is a result of an amalgamation of the political philosophies of the special interest groups who have replaced average Americans as the Democrats’ Voting Base leading to a push toward changing America into a Marxist Nation.

Hate, envy, and control are the “pillars of faith” in Marxism in all of its forms, fascism, and, of course, Islam.

All of these political philosophies are the anti-thesis of who the Far Left Democrats claim to be.

Ladies and gentlemen, I firmly believe that America is in the middle of fighting a new war against fascism which has now grown so radical as to reach the Biblical Book of Revelation levels.

f this effort by the “New Bolsheviks” is allowed to go unchecked, it will not be our Brightest and Best who will die on this field of battle, but rather, it will be our Constitutional Freedoms and our form of government, including our System of Checks and Balances, which will die ignoble death, pierced by the arrows of the “New Fascism”, going under the non de plumes of “socialism” and “political correctness”.

Fascism, in any form, remains indefensible.

All of this unethical political behavior by the Far Left Democrats is reminiscent of both the Russian Revolution and Hitler and his Brown Shirts’ “Beer Hall Putsch” which probably should have been expected, given the “New Bolsheviks” track record of Liberal Intolerance and aversion to opposing viewpoints.

Just as my Daddy did when he landed on Normandy Beach on June 6, 1944 with thousands of other brave young American men, we must look this “New Fascism” straight in the face and say, “NO MORE!”

Why All These Americans are in Washington, DC Today and What Today is All About

To say that today is a seminal moment in American History is probably the biggest understatement that I have ever made.

I was thinking about could possibly add to the mid-boggling situation which our Constitutional Republic finds itself it.

And then I realized: the situation writes itself.

Per Breitbart.com

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) gave a speech on the House floor shortly after she was re-elected as House Speaker where she said that members of Congress “need God’s blessing.”

“In all that we do, let us be For The People – recognizing the beautiful diversity of America so that no one is left out and no one is left behind,” she said.

“To do so, we need God’s blessing,” Pelosi continued. “May God bless all of us. God bless all of you. God bless our men and women in uniform and their families — their servicemembers and their families — our veterans and may God bless America,” she said.

Pelosi is not the only Democrat to invoke God’s blessing on the House floor for political purposes.

Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D-MO) concluded his opening prayer for the 117th Congress with the phrase “Amen and Awomen” on Sunday.

Cleaver, a pastor at a Methodist church in Missouri, prayed to “The God known by many names and faith,” before ending his prayer with “Amen and Awomen,” appearing to genderize the term “Amen” at the conclusion of a prayer.

The word “Amen” actually has nothing to do with gender, but is rather a term derived from Hebrew or Greek that means “truly” or “is so.”

So, what does that Blasphemous moment have to do with today?

EVERYTHING.

As I write this article, thousands of average Americans are gathering in our nation’s capital to support a Citizen Statesman whom they have dubbed “The People’s President”.

The reason for that is simple: those on Capitol Hill who American Voters keep sending up there to speak for THEM stopped doing that long ago.

The Professional Politicians in Washington have purposefully become tone-deaf and utterly removed as to the payers, hopes, and dreams of average Americans, which are born out being raised in families who believed in America’s Traditional System of Faith and Values which have made this country both great and admired around the world.

Instead, the Washington Elite have embraced a hedonistic lifestyle, surrounded by special interest groups and lobbyists, who as Rep. Swalwell and Joe and Hunter Biden found out, include our representatives of our enemies, Red China.

The Americans who have come from all over the country to be in Washington today to support President Trump are not there to worship him.

They are there because their love our country and they do not want to see it become another Venezuela.

These men and women actually care more about preserving our Sovereign Nation than those in Washington who are supposed to be working for US and who are instead up there for themselves.

The Far Left Democrats and the Vichy Republicans look down their nose at average Americans because we have sat back and allowed them to run over us for decades.

And then, we elected Donald J. Trump as the 45th President of the United States of America and turned the Washington Status Quo on its collective head.

The coming together of the Far Left Democrats and the Vichy Republicans is an act of self-preservation.

They would rather turn America into a Third World “Democratic Socialist” country than to allow a rank outsider like Donald J. Trump to be a successful President.

And, that is why we are witnessing the events of today.

1776 Deja Vu.

Only this time, it is not the British who are coming.

It is the Professional Marxist-leaning Bureaucrats who are already here.

Until He Comes,
