Trump's Biggest Economic Concern!

Listening to the Wall Street wizards talk about how wonderful the economy is booming, right now, and how this all seems to make Trump's reelection prospects look pretty good, it seems like the President needn't worry about the coming election!   Well guess again, folks!!!

You may have noticed that the President has some enemies, especially in Washington!!!   They don't like him meddling in their Socialist utopian "Deep State", and they have tried every dirty trick they can think of to run him out of town,...….. except one!!!

Back when George Bush "Senior" (as I like to refer to, George H.W.) was running for reelection, the Federal Reserve decided to raise the Interest Rates high enough to drive the economy into a recession!!!  There was plenty of complaining from the financial pundits that it was an unnecessary move to raise the rates, but to no avail!!!  Anyway, the state of the economy, at election time was the deciding factor in getting Bush to retire, and make room for the Clintons to move into the White House!!!  I don't suppose this was the result  of any Leftist shenanigans, by the "squeaky-clean" Clinton election machine, but I wonder if they were practicing for some Trump-like President that they couldn't otherwise get un-elected!!!

But, don't be surprised if  it happens all over again!  (I think it was the philosopher, George Santayana, who said, "those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it!")  The Fed has been fairly consistent in helping Democratic Presidents, and less so with Republican Presidents   at election time!  It just seems a bit "coincidental" to me!!!

2020 seems set for an endless ride of record setting financial windfalls, as long as no one tries to meddle with the way things are going: someone who might prefer the European "One-World" Socialist system, which is struggling, right now, and could benefit from an American recession sending business their way!!!  Well, as the President is fond of saying, "we'll see"!!!

But, by the time "we will see", will it be too late???   Perhaps, if Trump pulls it out, anyway, he should at least threaten to do what Abraham Lincoln did, by nationalizing the Fed back into the federal government!!!  I don't say it should be kept there, but the possibility should be ever present in the minds of the Directors!!!  Perhaps then they will be less willing to use the Fed. as a political weapon!!!

Should We Worry About North Korea's Plan To Give America A "Christmas Present"???

In the Lord, certainly not!!!  But how about in the natural???  I know God will provide for His people, but perhaps we may go through some tough times first, I suppose as a form of refining the "dross" out of us, in preparation for whatever is to follow!!!

North Korea is said to be planning some kind of "Christmas Present" for us, and they have been reputed to be developing some intercontinental missile technology, that can carry a missile as far as Washington, D.C.!   But it fails to reenter the atmosphere, without blow

ing up, so it can not destroy anything on the ground! 

But, I've heard Pat Robertson, on the 700 club, talk about the threat of an "Electro-Magnetic Pulse", which theoretically can wipe out our entire "electric grid",  by exploding a single nuclear device in the atmosphere above Chicago, or some other centrally located American city!!!  This would not only turn out the lights, all over  the country, but also turn off refrigerators, and cut off any electric heating in Winter, and air conditioning in the summer!!!  Food distribution to our grocery stores would be severely impaired, and banking and other financial transactions would be shut down for God only knows how long!!!   In todays' environment, that would cause panic around the country, especially with children;  who knows how long a child can survive without television, or computer games!!!

Since I am writing this at 2:00 p.m., on Christmas Eve., and North Korea is supposed to be ten hours ahead of us, I  guess we should know what dastardly "gift" they have in store for us, at any time now!  The suspense is truly agonizing for me!!!

 Hmmmmmmmmm!  Should I be afraid of Kim Jung Un, or trust in the Lord???   I wonder which is more powerful???  Duh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

UPDATE:  12/28/2019--

We seem to have survived through Christmas, despite the concerns of North Korea['s "Christmas Gift"!  But, I heard someone speculate that perhaps the North Koreans were thinking in terms of the Orthodox Christmas, which I understand comes sometime next week!!!  So it may be too soon for us to let out our collective breath, for that matter, we should never let our guard down with such a lunatic regime!!! 

We realize that such a supposed attack would be much more devastating for them,  than for us, after the necessary retaliation, but the trouble is, do they  realize it???  I doubt not that Kim, and his lackeys, believe they can sit out a nuclear attack in their shelters, and come out afterwards...,in about 500 years, after the radiation diminishes!!! 

How are we expected to reason with buffoons like this!!!???

So, Where Does The Impeachment Process Go From Here???

I have frequently written that I am no modern day Prophet, nor do I dabble in Satanic arts, so I have no Crystal Ball, or such!   But, the news media traditionally plays the game of future predictions at the end of each year, based upon their "best guess" understanding of what current events hold for us in the coming year.  Their past record of accurate predictions is so poor that I feel safe in offering my best guesses as to where the President's Impeachment process is going to go, over the next year!  My predictions will  not be based upon my superior wisdom (which I acknowledge is too inferior for such vanity), but the whole Impeachment process smells so bad that I think I can tell where it's going, just by following the stink of Democratic chicanery!!!

Currently the recently passed Articles of Impeachment were stuck under Nancy  Pelosi's considerable behind, where it festers until some common sense reality shall hopefully bring her to her senses!!!  I am not optimistic that she will respond to any common sense logic any time soon!!!  Therefor, the Articles will not likely be passed on to the Senate, any time soon!  If she continues to stall the President's trial, which is all but certain to bring acquittal to the President, she retains the capacity to claim that the Democratic controlled House has "Impeached the President", which the Democrats will shout ad nauseum throughout their reelection campaigns, without having to add the caveat that the Senate acquitted the President almost immediately, once the trial was begun!!!  This is perhaps the only way they can try to justify wasting so much time accomplishing virtually nothing, when there are so many issues that need to be addressed!!!

The presumption here is that the trial can not begin until the Articles are formally sent from the House to the Senate!  But, there are two schools of thought, on this issue!   This is the first, but the second is that the Constitution doesn't specify that this is true, so the Senate can begin the trial without the Articles ever having been received from the house!  It's notable that the first position was raised when the Harvard University Professor, who testified before the House that the President should be impeached, stated publicy that the President was not actually impeached until the Articles were actually received!!!

Here's where I begin to smell a rat, in this case out of Cambridge Massachusetts, where a whole nest of rats reside!!!  The fact that this liberal professor jumped up to make this point so readily, seems to suggest that the Liberals are hoping that the Senate will take the challenge, and begin the trial anyway!!!  Then they plan to sue in the courts, probably in some very liberal federal court system, like the ninth district, in San Francisco, where they can expect an almost certain rubber stamp on whatever position they take!   They will surely lose any appeal, even if it takes a Supreme Court challenge to get it!!!  But that may take 2 years to drag the process out!  In the mean time, the Democrats hope to get reelected to control the house, again, so they can redo the Impeachment for another wasted four years, until they can get Trump removed. one way, or another.  This way they can at least stimey his efforts to "drain the swamp" until he is out of office!!!

This is why I feel safe in predicting this pattern!  Rats are famous for accumulating around filth, and the Democrats have demonstrated a sick desire to do the same!!!  That's why I think I am safe in making these predictions!!!  Rats behave in fairly predictable  manners, and lately, so do the Democrats!!!

Someone Once Said Something About, "What Does It Profit A Man, If He Gains The Whole World,"...

I guess most believers can finish that sentence!!!  But, I wonder if a guy named Mark Galli remembers those words?

Years ago, I used to read a magazine called "Christianity Today", which was one of the few tabloids that could be counted on to express the Evangelical view well, in the modern society.   As a newly "Born Again" Christian, it was crucial for me to understand how I should shape my own opinions, in the midst of an overwhelmingly sin-obsessed world!!!  Once I had read the Bible through, a few times, and begun to memorize a few scriptures, like the one atop this post, and learned how to consistently apply them to my own life, I gradually forgot about reading "Christianity Today", as I intentionally decided to stop reading "Time", and "Newsweek", because I didn't approve of their political bias, which was so blatantly obvious. 

Perhaps I am partly to blame for the gross desertion of that magazine's editorial perspective, because I did not continue to support it financially (not intentionally, but simply because it was no longer important to me!!! ) I reached a point where I knew my own Biblical perspective, consistent with the Bible, and did not need extra-Biblical sources to shape my opinions!!!   Perhaps "Christianity Today" has fallen on hard financial times, because of the same attitude of other Christians approaching it from the same perspective;  it was useful initially, but, less so as I matured in the Lord!!!

At  any rate, whether the magazine hired less sincere writers as their profits declined, or whether true-believing writers simply began to question their faith, what we have today is no longer a magazine that represents the Biblical perspective of the Evangelical community!!!  It is truly a shame that someone named Mark Galli, the magazine's editor-in -chief, can make such an idiotic statement in the magazine, like he did, when he wrote that President Trump should be removed from office, after being impeached!!!

I am not particularly enamored by the President's personality!  I hope he is a "Born Again" Christian, but it is not up to me to judge him, whether he is, or is not!!!   That's between himself and the Lord!!!  But, as long as he behaves himself morally while in office, and most importantly, as long as he continues to support issues that are extremely important to the Evangelical Christian community, and continues to listen to the many Christian counselors he has surrounded himself with, I will continue to support him, regardless of the slander that others dish out to him!!!  When he stops all this, I will also stop supporting him!  But I will not call for his Impeachment, unless it is clear that he has committed an Impeachable offense, which he has not been charged with, yet, to any provable degree!!!   When he does, I will be one of the first to admit it, and to call for his resignation (like Nixon), before threatening him with Impeachment!! 

The Democrats should have approached him in this manner, but their hatred of him is not because he has committed an Impeachable offense, but because he is determined to undo the "Deep State" in the federal bureaucracy, which they have worked so hard to create, subtly, for so long!!!  They want to drive us into the European "One-World" Socialist system of government, and Trump is trying to defeat their efforts to do so!!!   To them, this is the worst form of treason, though the Constitution calls what they are doing to be the real treason!!!

As for Mr. Galli, he has been reputed to be leaving his job at "Christianity Today" in early January, of next year!!!  I can only wonder if he is being forced out, because of his un-Biblical perspective, and made his statement as a disgruntled employee who wished to damage the magazine's reputation, or is he simply trying to demonstrate that he is really anti-Trump, to neutralize any reluctance to hire him, for another position with a liberal magazine, or newspaper, at a fat salary!!!

Again, I say, "What does it profit...!!!"

Democrats Don't Want An Impeachment Trial, They want To Keep Persecuting The President!!!

It's not about prosecution, it's all about persecution!!!  House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is now threatening to sit on the Impeachment articles, that the House just voted on, and not send them on to the Senate for a trial, because she knows there is no substance to the charges and the Senate would acquit the President, in short order!!!  Therefor, it would be more deceptively valuable to the Democrats to avoid the trial, to bluster about how the House Impeached the President, as if that constitutes conviction of the charges, rather than have to explain why they charged him with crimes they could not prove in a trial!!!

Is there no end to this demagogic chicanery???  Is there absolutely no sense of honesty, or decency in the Democratic Party???  One Democratic Representative, from a swing state, apparently realized how desperately weak their case for impeachment was, and how poor their legislative record was, while sitting in control of the House, and decided to jump ship, and join the Republican Party, before the voters take vengeance upon the irresponsible Democrats, and start to clean the House, next year!!!  I guess this brings new meaning to the term, "Housecleaning", doesn't it?  How about "F.B.I. cleaning", and "D.O.J. cleaning", while we are at it?   Or, wholesale "Deep State cleaning"???   Would that we could just snap our fingers, and make them all disappear!!!  But, the Lord could do something like that, and He just might if these belligerent traitors don't repent soon!!!  He is well known for opening up the ground where unrepentant sinners are standing, and swallowing them up, in one swoop!!!   Are you listening, Adam Schiff!!! 

An interesting thought was expressed on FOX NEWS today.  Sol Weisenburg was interviewed, along with Ken Starr, the Special Prosecutor for Bill Clinton's Impeachment trial.  It was his opinion that the Constitution  allowed the Senate to proceed with the trial, even if the Speaker of the House continues to withhold  the articles of Impeachment, from the Senate!  So, the Senate could hold the trial, calling the witnesses they wish to have testify, and fully acquit the President of all charges, without the Democrats being present!!!   Talk about, "turn about is fair play"!!!  This would be a fitting return for all the House Democrats chicanery!!!

Democrats Are Applying Communist Doctrine To Their Impeachment Trial Proceedings!!!

There are obvious doctrinal elements of the Democrats' approach to the Impeachment trial that remarkably resemble blatant Communist propaganda techniques.  These techniques were used to the extreme, first in Nazi Germany, and then by Russian propagandists, and still are!!!  These two countries hate being compared to each other because of their World War II conflict, which was simply a matter of a greedy, hegemonistic territorial dispute, and was not a difference of political views, as both sides endlessly try to protest!!!  Both countries were created by the dogmatic principles of Marxism, of which deceitful propaganda techniques are considered to be of paramount importance!  Two principles, which amount to the same basic rule, are used ad nauseum in their ceaseless efforts to force the public to accept their blatant lies, no matter how absurd the logic, nor how false the reasoning!!!

First, they go to great lengths to keep repeating their lies, over and over, endlessly, regardless of how absurd they sound; and second, they go to even greater lengths to silence any dissenting views to the contrary of their lies!!!   We saw these techniques used repeatedly in the Impeachment hearings, in both the Intelligence, and Judicciary Commitees of the House of Representatives!   The majority Democrats desperately closed off any fair Republican rebuttal to their outrageous lies, for fear that the public might actually recognize the truth, which would be catastrophic to their illogical Impeachment charges!!!  Now, they are trying to continue the trend in any Senate trial, which they are afraid might expose their lies, so they are calling for more witnesses to supposedly strengthen their arguments, against any Republican challenges to their absurd logic!

It seems clear to me that Senator Graham's preference for calling an immediate vote to dismiss the trial, without calling any witnesses, would be the most painless way of ending this excruciating process, that has completely turned off the American viewing public!!!   The Republicans could call many witnesses to refute the Democrats' lies, but they don't need to in order to convince those who have already realized the fallacy of the Democrats' logic!  And if they did call their witnesses, they would have to allow the Democrats to call more of their "witnesses" to continue to endlessly expound their lies, all the more!!!  The American viewing public has grown sick and tired of this charade, and the best thing is just to put a quick end to it all, since there is no chance of the President being convicted in the Republican-controlled Senate!!!

Message to the Democrats:  Sit down, and shut up!!!  We are tired of you idiots, with your endless lies!!!

The Difference Between "Right Wing" Conservatism, and Righteous Conservatism!!!

I am not pompous, or arrogant, or vain enough to proclaim my own righteousness!!!  If there is any righteousness in what I write, it is entirely inspired by God, and I give Him all the glory; I can only write what I am inspired by Him to write!  While I agree with much of what the other Conservative press, and television pundits have to say, especially about the horrendous state of American politics, I don't expect them to necessarily agree with everything I write!  I take my direction from the Lord, and when I am right, He deserves all the glory, and when I am wrong, it's obviously my fault, I must have allowed my human frailty to get the better of me, and missed whatever God was telling me!!!

But, this is totally different from the other conservative media pundits!  They are smart enough to claim their own wisdom as their inspiration, whether they acknowledge God as inspiring them, or not!   I recognize that I need God's wisdom to try and discern the truth from what I read, and hear!!!

Consequently, I am less afraid to speak out on what I believe is blatant evil, and assign it to it's original source, which is Satan, even if the majority of my readers may dismiss me as a "looney, Christian nut-case", who is stupid enough to believe that a 2500-year-old prophecy may be about to be fulfilled!!!   As I have explained before, this prophecy was given to the prophet Ezekiel, in chapters 38,and 39, with the explanation that it was to be fulfilled in the very distant future, at a time which God referred to as, "the last days"!!!  I feel there is plenty of evidence today, in the world around us, to suggest we are entering that era, based upon the descriptions of"the last days" of many Biblical writers! 

I don't expect everyone who reads my blog to agree with me, but my purpose is merely to expose as many people as I can to the possibility that my beliefs may be correct, and let them decide for themselves!   I believe that the world is presently undergoing the most profound Satanic delusion in history, as the Devil is trying to get the European Commonwealth to form his concept of a "One-World" Socialist government, which he will eventually use to allow his "Antichrist" to take absolute dictatorial control over, to use it to create the most evil holocaust against the Christians, and Jews that are living at that time!!!  Not only that, but the Bible clearly states that all those who participate in it's economic system (which will  require a "mark of the beast" on their hand, probably for computer identification) will be thrown into Hell when they die!!!  The British have had enough of this system, already, and they have voted to get out of it (the so-called "Brexit" plan).  They don't like Socialism's plan to make richer countries, like Britain, and America, pay for the expenses of the poorer nations that join the system!!!

In America, today, we have many people who are blindly trying to promote this system, and we commonly refer to them as "Globalists", but it's the same thing.  Many of the largest corporations on "Wall Street" are run by these devotees, and the Democratic party is promoting it's values, either because they believe in the concept, themselves, or because they get huge contributions from the giant corporations, to their reelection funds!!!    Either way, they are against the American Constitution, and wish to abolish it, because America is too wealthy, and too powerful to compete against their plans for world domination, and our freedoms conflict with Socialism's dictatorial plans!  Therefore, America must be destroyed, one way or another, and we are most vulnerable through our runaway, inflationary debt!!!  That is why the Democrats are all proposing programs that will cost trillions of dollars to implement, destroying our economy when the dollar collapses, and we can't pay off our debts!!!

I do hope some of my readers agree with my views, because we will need millions to pray for God's mercy to protect us from what these "Globalists" have in mind for us all!!!  If you thought slavery was abolished in America, wait till you see what these people have in mind, not only for us, but for the whole world!!!

When The Left Feels Vulnerable, They Accuse The Conservatives Of The Same Thing!!!

I guess you'd call this "Strategic Projectionism"!  It's as if they feel that accusing the opposition of the very thing they are guilty of will convince their constituents of the triviality of their offense!!! This is the whole basis of the Impeachment investigation, an obvious attempt to deflect criticism away from the real collusion with the "Russians", when Hillary Clinton's campaign paid for a "dirty" dossier filled with Russian disinformation lies about Trump, and his campaign officials, and the F.B.I. used this "dossier"as the "legal" basis for the FISA warrants to spy on Trump's campaign officials, illegally!!!

Now we have a Democratic Congresswoman who has the temerity to accuse the Majority Leader of the Senate of being unfairly biased for the President, before the Senate Impeachment trial begins, and therefore he must recuse himself!!!  As if the Democrats in the House were not biased against the President before they charged him with ridiculously untrue impeachable offenses!  The only true offense he had committed in their eyes, boiled down to, "we don't like him!!!"  I don't find that listed in the Constitution as an impeachable offense!!!  Plus, the very people who are responsible for convincing the Senators of the President's innocence, before his trial, are the deceitful Democrats in the House who brought these charges against him, without evidence of a crime!!!

I suppose they would like all the Republicans in the Senate to recuse themselves, as well!  That's the only way they could get the Senate to convict the President, by removing all the Republicans!!!  These Democrats are corrupt to the core, and they keep getting elected, God  only knows how!!!

God help us, if the Democrats should somehow retain control of the House after the 2020 election!!!  They have already vowed to bring another impeachment trial against the President, if he is reelected, which they have all but guaranteed by their three-year persecution procedure!!!  It seems unimaginable that we should be subjected to another round of inaction in the House, after years of dereliction of service, while these absurd charges  resound from the walls of the most incompetent chamber of the Congress, in American history!!!  And the Democrats think they are doing the country good, by doing so!!!   Hmmmmm.........., or do they????????????

The Very Desperation Of The Leftist Demagogues Trying To Impeach Trump Exposes Their True Conspiracy!!!

I don't much care that I have no reputation for credibility, after all I seem to be a "looney Christian" who is crazy enough to believe that a "so-called" prophecy, of some 2500 years ago may be about to be fulfilled!  No one who wishes to be taken seriously, would stand by such  a ridiculous opinion, or that the Democrats' desperate efforts to impeach Trump was indicative of an international effort to legitimize the European "One-World" Socialist government movement, by destroying the best competitor to their system, America's free market economy, and Democratic Republic!!!

I don't much care, because I believe in the God that made the Prophecy, and said it was for, "the last days"!  There is enough spiritual evidence to suggest that we are entering that period, but we won't know for sure until some rather chaotic events take place!  By that time, no one will care to praise me for being right, we will all be too concerned about survival!!!  But, the very people who are the most skeptical, now, will be the most unprepared to face the difficulties to come!!!

The Bible makes it clear that the concept of a "Globalist" economic system which seems to be well intended as a concept,  will be corrupted for evil purposes, and those who foolishly participate in it will end up vacationing in the warm climates of Hell, for an eternity!!! If what I believe is true, then we are not talking about some debatable philosophical concept, the choice will either send millions to Hell, or not!!!

Guess where I suspect the Democrats involved in the impeachment debacle are likely to hold their Party Caucuses of the not too distant future???  Parties usually like to meet in warm climates, and this location  seems to be ideally suited for their personalities!!!  I expect that they will receive glowing recommendations from earlier tenants, from the ranks of the F.B.I. ,  such as Comey, McCabe, Strock, Page, et. al.!!!

I'm Tired Of Waiting For These Endless Investigations, Already!!!

I understand that the FISA investigation of the D.O.J. Inspector General was intentionally limited in scope, yet it still took longer than anticipated, and is a big disappointment at it's apparent inability to draw obvious conclusions as to who is guilty of what!!!   The only strong conclusion we can draw from this report is that the so-called "Deep State" we knew was running the illegal activities of the F.B.I. is apparently deeper entrenched in the middle and lower levels of the bureaucracy than we thought!!!

The I.G. found it necessary to interview loyal American agents, as well as "Deep Staters" to find out what went on, which I'm sure diluted the strength of his conclusions!!!  When he must report on both sides of his evidence, it's understandably difficult to draw accurate conclusions!

But, I'm sure tired of waiting for all these investigations to finally come to the obvious conclusions, and prosecute the guilty parties, so that others who might consider copying them, in the future, will reconsider!!!  We must either bring swift and strong retribution upon them, or others will surely try it again!!!  ( I hear that Hillary is actually considering running for President, again!!!  She should run her campaign from jail, in my opinion!!!)

Attorney General William Barr, and Special Counsel Durham will eventually get to the bottom of it all, but that may take the better part of next year, with the election soon there after!  How the one will effect the other, is anybody's guess!!!

I'm sure the "Deep State" is trying to drag this out as long as possible, in the false hope that the Democrats will not only be reelected to control the House, but will pick up the Senate, and the Presidency, as well!!  I don't see much realistic hope of any of that, but we are not wrestling against flesh and blood, but against, "spiritual wickedness  in  high places" (the "Deep Staters"), and they are controlled by the second most powerful force in the universe (namely, Satan), and the most powerful force (God) will not  over rule him, unless enough of us petition Him, prayerfully, to do so!!!   So, how many does it take?  I don't know!!!  So, you ,and I had  better help!!!

UPDATE:  12/12/2019--

Yesterday, I heard some Congresswoman i have never heard of say (in her great wisdom!!!), that the Democrats are willing to do the impeachment cr*p all over again, should President Trump be reelected, in 2020!!!   Her presumption was that the Democrats would certainly retain control of the House, which I don't agree is a foregone conclusion!   But, it shows the level of arrogant self-centered will of these idiots, to think they will be rewarded for doing nothing in their first term controlling the House, except for this impeachment farce!  For starters, there are 31 Democrats that were elected in states that Trump won as President, in 2018!  Do they really believe that he wiil lose in 2020, and that they will be reelected???  Somebody should tell these idiots to. "get a life!!!"

I Am Ashamed To Be Living In What Amounts To The "Divided Socialist States Of America"!!!

We witnessed yesterday, at the Impeachment  Inquiry, as it flips it's venue from the Intelligence Committee (which is in itself an embarrassment to the American people, to have a compulsive liar, and intentional propagandist, like Adam Schiff, presiding over what used to be an august body of the Congress), to the Judiciary committee, where we witness the blatant example of what our nation's Academia has degenerated into, over the past several generations!!!

 It's a crying shame that some of our best reputed Colleges, and Universities, have given themselves over to the international "Fabian Socialist" movement, descended from the 19th century British philosophy, and continue to spout Leftist dogma as if it were absolute truth!!!  It's incomprehensible to me that an institution supposedly promoting "higher education" could actually hire blithering idiots of the quality of the "professors" that testified before the Judiciary Committee yesterday (with apologies to the only qualified speaker, Jonathan Turley, of George Washington University)!!!  I do not fault the professors, for there will always be such lunacy graduating from college, because their intelligence is far greater than their understanding!!!  But, it is unconscionable in the extreme to actually hire these graduate-buffoons to disseminate their lunacy upon the virgin minds of our innocent children, with the implied acceptance, and brand of excellence of the University that hired them!!!

It's clear that many of our best Colleges, and Universities have been taken over by dedicated Socialists, who want to shut off other forms of dialogue, by hiring an overwhelming Leftist faculty, and promoting antagonism to the concept of free speech, to be of the highest form of integrity!!!   Like I said, I do not blame the individual Leftist professors, nor even the equally misguided Leftist faculty members who hire them, because of their own perverse biases!!!  The real people to blame are the Directors who originally hired those eventual Leftist faculty members, some of whom probably believed that it was providing "diversity" of intellectual thought to their campus!!!

 But, the "Romper Room" thinking that has to have preceded their decisions to do so, is inexcusable!!!  It doesn't take an abundance of wisdom to find the intellectual flaws in Socialism, and the fact that so many institutions of "higher learning" seem to be incapable of recognizing this fact, makes them unworthy of their government financial support!!!  They should immediately be defunded of all government grants, and the concept of government guaranteed loans should be stopped, not to mention the ridiculous Leftist platform of many Democratic candidates, to have the government fund free College education for all!!!  There is no better way to emasculate the excellence of a College degree than to make it non-competitive, by making the tuition free to all students, at any institution!!!  A college education really meant something up until World War II . when people had to work to pay off their tuition, as they studied.  But, the need to lure military enlistment created the "G. I. Bill", and successive wars made it a socially accepted reality.  It should have been stopped after each war ended, but Congress seems to be unable to stop wasteful spending that is popular.

Not only do Colleges no longer have to compete for reputations of excellence, but the various applying students no longer have to strenuously compete to demonstrate excellence of aptitude, because there are too many schools desperate to pay their bills by accepting students who have not demonstrated that aptitude, because they have gotten easily obtained, government guaranteed loans!!!  If we stop the easy, no-risk loan availability, we will force the schools to return to a concern for the academic excellence of the past, and stop graduating idiots like Congress calls to validate their absurd impeachment proceedings!!!  In the process, the rate of tuition growth, overall, will slow, and even reverse, as schools will begin to strenuously compete for earned income from non-governmental sources, based on their reputations of real excellence, not the excellence of previous generations!!!

There Is A Precedent For Invading Mexico!!! How Long Must We Wait???

In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson ordered troops into Mexico, to hunt down the Mexican bandit, Pancho Villa, who had left his Revolutionary traits behind as he had invaded previously the American town of Columbus, New Mexico!  His goal was reputedly to steal food, guns, and horses from the town, after his incompetent intelligence reported that the local Army outpost contained only 35 soldiers, when it actually was staffed with 135 soldiers!  The Americans fought him to a standstill, with machine guns, and their cavalry chased them into Mexico, with Wilson's approval!!!

The point is that when a Mexican group of bandits becomes so brazen that they prey upon Americans, it behooves the President to be ready to send troops into Mexico, to put an end to the source of the banditry, even if it means attacking two competing bandit groups simultaneously!!!

Today, we have at least two bandit Cartels that are fighting for control of northern Mexico, while they continue to ship dangerous narcotic drugs across our border, with impunity!!!  Not only are some of these drugs killing our children, but American citizens traveling in Mexico are being targeted by the cartels in their turf battles!!!  To me, it makes little difference whether the killing of America women and children, in an S.U.V., was a mistake, the fact that they were taken out as "possible" rival cartel members, just in case, is intolerable!!!

This kind of brazen lawlessness, will at some point spread physically across our porous border!  And I wonder if the so-called "Sanctuary Movement" is not funded directly by cartel money going directly  to our corrupt local Democrat politicians, in order to protect cartel members from prosecution in the U.S.A.!!!  They are already pushing the "legalization"of Marijuana, how long till they contrive a reason to legalize the so-called "hard drugs"???  Talk about a "slippery slope"; when you protect the lawlessness of petty criminals, it is only a matter of time before you protect all criminals!!!

The only solution is not the reputed defense of the Mexican President, who said he, "preferred the approach of 'hugs for thugs'"!!!
If  Mexico can't, or won't, clean up their cartel  mess, at some point we may have to, before it spreads across the border!!!  In the process we may put an end to the central American illegal immigration deluge, which is informally regulated by these cartels!!!

I Grieve For America's Lost Values!!!

Never before in the history of the United States has there been such an ideological division between the respective ruling parties!!!  There have been deep divisions, such as the disagreement on the morality of slavery, which led up to the Civil War!  But, even then, the basis for the disagreement was for the moral value of living morally in this country.  One side thought slavery was appropriate, not because it was moral, but because the southern states were economically dependent upon the cheap labor of slavery.  The whole issue was about the moral aspect of it, on one side, and the risk of collapsing the southern states' economy, if it were to be abolished.  But, right or wrong, the issue boiled down to the question of the best way to preserve the perceived freedoms of America's rule of law!

Today, we can not say the same thing about our party divisions!  On one hand, we have a party that wants to preserve our Constitutional values, while on the other hand we have a party that stands against Constitutional values, and wishes to cleverly, and even blatantly manipulate those values into something not contained in the Constitution!!!   I don't see how the Democrats, and other Socialists, can say that they are for upholding our Constitution (which their Congress men, and women have taken an oath to."preserve,  protect, and  defend") while at the same time they try to manipulate it's values to mean something other than what is actually written in it!!!  By their efforts to do so, it seems obvious to me that they really hate the Constitution,  and consider it an impediment to their real desire, which I have previously stated that I believe it is to gain power so they can force us to abolish the Constitution, and force us into joining the European "One-World" Socialist government, being developed by the Common Market, today!!!

There is a desperation to their efforts, that causes them to be reckless in their efforts to force there way into power, with the illegal immigration, that makes it easy to hire illegals to vote for their party's candidates, with small bribery, and the help of providing driver's licenses to illegals, so they can appear to be legal voters, since they recognize they can not win, without cheating!!!  It's a typical case of them believing that "the end justifies the means", which they rationalize because they honestly must believe that the "One-World" government is the last best hope for true "peace", and "prosperity" for all mankind!!!

 I don't believe anyone can rationalize this and still be an honest, Bible believing Christians!  Yet I believe that many of the people they have duped into agreeing with them, honestly believe they are such!!!  There is a force in the world that relies upon "strong delusion" to sway opinion in it's favor, and the source for this is Satanic, at it's core!!!  Yes, even Christians (whose hearts are well meaning, but they have not examined the consequences of supporting these evil Democratic values) can be duped into supporting these evil values!!!   Many have been traditional Democrats for generations, and simply march lock-step with the party line, without considering that this is a time of peril that has never existed in America before!!!

 And the Mainstream Media, which has been so trustworthy until recently, has now been taken over completely by leftist propagandists, who exploit the traditional trust many have held over the years, and blindly view with an unsuspecting sense that they are hearing the truth, which they are no longer!!!

The politics of the moment may actually destroy America as we know it, and only a tremendous Holy Ghost revival, can turn this around!!!   But, God will not send His revival upon us, unless there are enough of us who obediently pray for Him to do so!!!   So, how many of us constitute "enough"???  Only God knows!!!

 So we all must pray fervently for His mercy, as we, "wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against spiritual wickedness in high places!!!"  The Democratic Party is the main  source of evil, in this country!!!

Chinese Belligerence, Vs. Hong Kong's Desperation!!!

I watch the events unfolding in Hong Kong, and I am deeply troubled by the appearances of what might come to pass!  China obviously feels that they have a right to annex Hong Kong, according to their original agreement with Britain, which leased Hong Kong for 100 years, in the late 19th century!  Legally, they are within their rights to expect to reacquire Hong Kong, without interference from America, or anyone else!!!  But, the complicating factor is the regime change in China, after World War II, which placed China under one of the most brutal Communist governments the world has ever seen!!!

Now that regime wants to implement the arrangement negotiated between Britain, and the old Chinese government, when the original agreement could never have anticipated the threat to the freedom of the people of Hong Kong, that they now face!!!  After 100 years of peaceful rule under the British Colonial government, the people of Hong Kong now face the encroaching Chinese annexation, and a total end to the freedoms they have become used to!!!  One can  only sympathize with them, but to impose international freedoms upon the Chinese government, as a condition of their taking control of Hong Kong, which was assumed to be unnecessary, when the original agreement was signed, would be seen as a violation of accepted International Law, today!   To expect other countries to agree with that, such as the United Nations, which is overwhelmingly hostile to basic freedoms around the world, is absurd!!!

Unfotunately, the people of Hong Kong are so desperate for their salvation, that they probably hope the bill passed through Congress recently, and signed into law, by President Trump, is merely the first step in the eventual annexation of Hong Kong, by America!!!  This hope, which may sound good, in theory, is entirely unrealistic, in present day reality!!!  When Britain negotiated the lease with China, it was viewed as giving Britain  free use of worthless Chinese territory, for what was probably a substantial fee, at that time, to a very poor Chinese government!   Things have changed dramatically, over the past 100 years!!!  Not only has China developed economically, but militarily into one of the top powers of the world!!!

 But, Hong Kong has developed into one of the financial capitals of  the entire world, and China is right to lust after their financial power, assuming it will be maintained after China annexes the whole island!!!  But, the people of Hong Kong realize that their prosperity is inexorably tied to the peoples' freedom, and that no communist country could be expected to allow those freedoms to exist in part of their country, while the rest is under such basic slavery conditions!!!  One side would have to be changed,  and the people of Hong Kong know which one that would be!!!  China could not allow those freedoms, without it infecting the rest of the country, and their ideological bias could never allow that!!!

So, what is the answer???  It would be simple for America to move in and annex Hong Kong, like the Russians did in Crimea, but it would be even simpler for China to annihilate America, with their nuclear missile technology, and they are clearly not above that!!!

In the mean time, prayer for the Hong Kong people is the only hope I can see!  This crisis is not only too big for me to figure out, it is apparently too big for mankind to figure out, except for the one Man, who is also the Son of God!!!
