Gorbachev tried to save the Soviet Empire ... and failed. Trump ran on saving the America that we lost (not the Empire that has bankrupted us). Red hats and a dance (and a horrendous Democrat candidate) were all that was necessary. Trump has proven that (like the covid "vaccines") it was all false advertising. He's trying to save the Empire. War piled on top of war ... spending on top of spending ... and debt piled on top of debt. After Gorbachev failed, Putin arrived on the scene and took a Russia that was literally on its death bed and brought it back to life, preserving Russian culture, traditions and Christianity. When Trump's term ends in 3 years, who will lead America by focusing on America ONLY? Anyone? I can think of a couple of people from Kentucky. Or will we follow the British example and (after Empire) slide further and further into the abyss?

So many wonder why Trump didn’t “Drain The Swamp” the first time around… And is not even close to doing it now. We now have the answer as to why… Trump believes that “the Swamp” is Thomas Massie & Rand Paul! What a scam!

The key here is to change the end that you're trying to achieve. The goal is to speak the truth...not convince others. Speaking the truth we can control. Convincing others we can't control. When we speak the truth, those who are open to it will benefit. Those who are closed to it will attack it. Remember, man crucified Jesus (God as man, the Perfect Truth). That tells us everything we need to know about what our audience is capable of. The goal is to speak truth...not convince. With that being the goal, we won't be disturbed when some try to crucify what we're saying. We expect it as part of the human experience.

The “No Kings” label is stupid. If anything, Trump is a lesson on why America’s Founders HATED democracy. Trump is very skilled at winning elections by duping people to vote for him. He then points out that the people who matter most are his donors in Israel. With democracy (as opposed to kings) there need be no loyalty to your own nation. Loyalty goes to the highest bidder.

The Left is always off in their own world. They are never any help against Trump. Today, they're out there demonstrating about "No Kings." Yes, Trump acts like an *absolutist* king at times. But all presidents do, especially since, and including, Lincoln. Congress willfully makes itself irrelevant. They think that by doing so, it gets them off the hook from all the horrendous things that our presidents do. But in the end, we don't have dynastic and absolutist kings. We have donor-based leaders. Trump bragged about who his donors are in front of the Israeli Knesset.

Below the surface we have two men here who are communicating the same thing. They aren’t doing it directly, or on purpose. Post-JFK America and Post -Vatican II ‘Catholicism’ are not the America of 1776 and Catholicism of 33AD. Actually, Trump does say it directly….explicitly. The 1960’s were revolutionary in a very bad way.

The "government shutdown" that we need is Trump's: ....foreign policy of endless war(s). ...monetary policy of more inflation. ...tax policy of tariffs (that we have to pay 86% of). ...fiscal policy of the government's debt hitting $40 trillion next year. Yet, we don't get that type of government shutdown.

Empires are destructive looting operations. Sadly America became one, and necessarily became a money-changing, ‘service’ economy that racked up more debt than any Empire in the history of the world. Empires end when they exhaust themselves and their homeland turns into a moral and economic basket case. Check both off for modern America. The citizens at home become nothing more than zoo animals to keep placated. So in 2024 an entertainer ran on the idea that he’s going to remake the zoo, and bring it back to its original state. Just yesterday the Zookeeper in-Chief said that $18,000,000,000,000 is going to be invested by foreigners to upgrade the American Zoo! Meanwhile the Zoo keeps falling to pieces and the Empire continues its looting around the world. - oil rich Venezuela is in the crosshairs. - oil rich Iran - Russia - the resource champion of the earth - China - the production capital of the world. Keep looting and keep promising the animals at home that the Zoo upgrades are coming. Never let your nation become an Empire.

In the same way that America does not need to send money, weapons and fight endless wars for Israel... Neither does China need to export to America. Only 2.5% of China's GDP is exported to the U.S. China is currently running record trade surpluses despite Trump's bombast. So we have two illusions. Zionists run around telling Americans how much they need to keep bankrupting themselves for Israel.... And Americans run around claiming that China needs to sell to America. Neither is true. We don't need Israel...and China doesn't need us. But we have to remember that we live in an Empire of Lies.

It is a shame that this has to be pointed out to people who consider themselves Christians, but it does. When Jesus said: “It is not for thee to know, now, What I am doing; But thou wilt understand it afterwards.” That applies to Jesus and Him alone. Not to some politician who is carrying out evil acts…and we’re just supposed to trust him. The politician is not God. Christ never uses evil means. Man tries to peddle the idea to other men that he can use evil means to achieve righteous ends. That he’s playing “4-D Chess.” It is the job of every Christian to oppose this! Christ doesn’t lose, but we do when we allow politicians to do evil. Christ uses man’s evil acts to achieve His End. Even His enemies cannot avoid serving Him. But it is not for the Christian to write-off the evil acts of politicians…thinking we’ll understand what he’s doing later. That’s idolatry.
