How To Live Under An Unqualified President by John Piper

Winston Churchill WWII Quote “This is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.”

Churchill’s ability to present a hard truth after a big victory, epitomizes the kind of rare leadership that stands out.

Well, notice this order:

Will President Trump set an example for them. Should the staff do exactly as he does??? :crazy_face:

I hope so:

Now, this is the big question. :crazy_face:

And is there new hope, for combating this pandemic? :crazy_face:

Let me quote a bit:

“But look,” said Valerio, growing quite impatient. “I come bearing good news. This coronavirus crisis in which you are currently enmeshed does not end humanity. You guys get through it. Many things will be permanently changed, some for the better, some for the worse. But just know it will pass.”

Just a footnote or two, folks. He specifically mentioned the coronavirus. He didn’t say anything about Z-Hell (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9). :crazy_face:

So let me quote a bit more:

“So humanity is alive and well?” said the woman who was going to say that.

“Uh,” said Valerio. He hemmed and hawed. “Well, no, I mean, not exactly.”

“What happens to us?” said the man who was going to ask.

“I can’t really say,” said Valerio.

Don’t worry, Valerio. I can. :crazy_face:

Well, back to COVID-19. Here’s how one gym I belong to, images reopening protocol. :smiley:

Not sure what you see in that quote? It seems nostalgia may be the reason. I surmise you are trying to compare World War 2, to the Corona virus? If so, I don’t even see them as even apple to oranges comparison, much less apples to apples.

As I said, I see Churchill in that quote as modeling leadership that can present “hard truths” that call for sacrificing a quick return to the citizenry’s previous life.

Today some leaders are emphasizing that the worst is behind us with Covid-19 which will soon just go away, and others are urging that its more painful reality may be that we still need to sacrifice some of our recent freedom and prosperity to meet its’ challenge. I’m unsure which emphasis will end up gaining the most support and trust from voters, but I suspect perceptions of this will affect our election.

And the beat goes on. :crazy_face:


A view from abroad. (That means from overseas, not from a woman heh). You know he’s British because he uses the word ‘whilst’.

" ‘Something rotten in the State of America’

I lack the energy these days to dive into the intricate details of the current ’ mess of pottage ’ that is the political condition of the (dis)United States of America. The essence of the matter appears to be that the, er, ‘sainted’ former President ‘Obamarama’ was, in fact, " a dirty rat " of the very worst kind who led a cabal of crooks in a highly organised campaign of spying and subversion against the Republican party and their Presidential candidate at the time, Donald Trump. Please read the long and detailed report on these nefarious activities over at Zero Hedge. Suffice to say that whilst there is little doubt that the Republican party has its fair share of scallywags, the Democrat party is corrupt and criminal to its very core. Former President ‘Obamarama’ must be running his finger round his collar as the heat mounts and he is in danger of wearing out the knees of his trousers as he prays ten times a day that Biden beats Trump in November. If Trump wins, and launches a judicial enquiry into those 2015/16 " events, dear boy, events ", it could be the American equivalent of the ’ Old Bill ’ feeling ‘Obamarama’s’ collar!

Too delicious, simply too, too delicious!"

Another song for The Beat Goes On. :crazy_face:

Meanwhile, what’s happening with this golf course? :crazy_face:

Let’s take a closer look, shall we? Is this a course that President Trump plays on? :crazy_face:

And since Trump “allegedly” recommends bleach… Let’s look at a doctor, with that name. :crazy_face:

Let me quote an interesting segment. :crazy_face:

We tracked the source to a self-proclaimed “Tide Pod Caster” in Webster, Arizona. Doctor Xavier Laurel, a 31-year-old man who has a PhD in “Sciencey Stuff” from the now-shuttered Trump University. Broadcasting from his mother’s basement, “Dr. X” (as he wants to be called) got his degree just before lawsuits brought the on-line college down.

Indeed in his basement apartment, Dr. X was surrounded by a bunch of spider-clad freezers. He said the current government inspired him when he started his podcast. “I took my lead from the President,” he says. “He can say things in public that normally would have a person institutionalized or, at the very least, sedated. So, I said to myself, ‘Self? You can do the same thing.’”

From a Rabbi. Once an Obama supporter. The entire thing is lengthy so just a snippet and a link.

" Donald Trump has been the chief executive of this country for more than three years, and he has proven to be a great president in so many ways, but he sadly has proven incapable of cleaning the swamp. He at least identified the swamp’s existence, and he is fighting its effort to swallow him within its muck. But he has proven that, despite the glorious slogan he inspired, he cannot drain it. Not one single slime in the swamp has been brought to justice.

There is something so evil in a society that tolerates a dual standard of justice, dual standards of everything. On the one hand, we political conservatives harbor profoundly deep feelings, but we do not destroy people’s lives based on abstract politics. Yes, we oppose them and expose them, and we hope that contemporary society and history judge them for the evil they represent. But we do not destroy them in their lives. They get away with everything . Hillary Clinton spoliated 33,000 emails amid a federal probe, a federal crime that always ends up with prison time — but not for her. It is a federal crime to lie under oath to Congress. Comey, Clapper, Brennan — how have they all avoided prison time? Strzok, Page, the whole bunch of them? Adam Schiff. The outliers on the Mueller team. Not one single slime among them in the swamp has been brought to justice.

These animals destroyed the life of Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn. They drove him into such financial ruin that he had to sell his home to pay his legal bills. They went after a good boy, Nick Sandmann, and they cruelly made him into the face of racism. His own Catholic diocese in eastern Kentucky sold him out and sold out all the boys who stood with him that fateful day in Washington, D.C., when he was harassed by a messed-up Indian with a drum. And they did everything they could to destroy Brett Kavanaugh, a good man, a family man, a man who has devoted time throughout his life to his church and to the need. They endeavored through outright perjury to destroy him. The perjurers all got away with it. Name one single perjurer against Justice Kavanaugh who ever was brought to justice by Charles Grassley or Lindsey Graham of the Senate Judicial Committee.

The liars destroy with impunity because they know they always will get away with it. Republicans watch the character assassination and then go on Sean Hannity to sound brave for five minutes. “These people will pay a steep price, Sean.” “I won’t let them get away with it, Sean.” “Let not your heart be troubled, Sean.” “We will investigate every crime and every perjury, Sean.” Three years of hearing this from Paul Ryan, Reince Priebus, Trey Gowdy, Charles Grassley, Lindsey Graham, Rudy Giuliani, Jason Chaffetz, Kevin McCarthy. Well, Fox News Alert : They all got away with it. Comey. Brennan. Clapper. Blasey Ford. Schiff. Hillary. Strzok. Page. McCabe.

If the Left truly believed in the truth of the slogans they chanted in their failed effort to destroy Justice Kavanaugh, does anyone truly believe that Biden still would be standing today? Does anyone truly believe that Sonia Sotomayor could not have been completely destroyed at the time of her SCOTUS nomination if she were conservative? If the media were not a division of the Democrat Party, does anyone doubt that New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo today would have been forced from office like his immediate predecessors, Eliot Spitzer and David Paterson, if only for presiding over so extraordinary a health catastrophe that his one state accounts for half the coronavirus illnesses and deaths in the whole country? Cuomo ordered nursing homes in his state to admit coronavirus-infected seniors into facilities that were woefully unprepared to handle the medical ramifications, and that order singularly caused mass death. And yet the same media that seek any and every angle to blame Trump for not wearing a mask lionize Cuomo, who not only should wear a mask but also should change his fingerprints, undergo plastic surgery to reconfigure his appearance, and hide for dear life in some El Chapo cave from the children and grandchildren left behind by the more than 5,000 defenseless seniors whom he has martyred so far on the altar of Democrat liberalism."

Will There Be an Obamagate Reckoning? You Betcha!

By Brian C. Joondeph

Spygate has a new name under the trending Twitter hashtag #ObamaGate. It is being revealed to the public in a slow but systematic fashion, a treasonous plot to undermine a presidential election and subsequent presidency. When that failed, the plot twisted to destroying a duly elected president through leaks, innuendo, and outright lies.

This was not simply a few rogue FBI or DOJ agents taking justice into their own hands. Instead a plot of this magnitude had the blessing of the big boss, the capo di tutti capi , as the Mafia like to say, the boss of all bosses, President Barack Hussein Obama. Hence the name ObamaGate.

It seems that the Obama administration was spying not only on candidate Donald Trump, but a host of other political opponents using NSA “about” queries. These unauthorized searches of the NSA’s database of all electronic communications numbered in the thousands and were carried out by intelligence “contractors” until NSA director Admiral Mike Rogers shut it all down. Conservative Treehouse has a detailed description and timeline of this nefarious activity.

Failing to prevent the election of the inevitable Hillary Clinton, Obama and his goon squad set out to destroy Trump’s presidency. One might call this a “seditious conspiracy,” which 18 U.S. Code § 2384 describes, “If two or more persons in any State or Territory…conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States.”

Setting aside political backstabbing on both sides. Let’s let folks decide what they believe, in Nov. 2020. :slight_smile:

Amen, voters will reflect whether they see the management of a world-wide crisis as effective.

Trust me “the right” wants nothing more then honest elections. We didn’t like Obama but didn’t try to destroy him.

This is an interesting half-hour YouTube video, by a female TV Pentecostal minister - regarding this pandemic. :smiley:

And I shared this elsewhere, on this forum.

Lakota medicine man Quentin Young heard the creator say:

“When the dead leaves fall from the trees, so shall the coronavirus (COVID-19)."

and

“with respect to COVID-19, fill your pipes and ask to take down and put away.

Or let me summarize these messages, via a Holy Fool type song :crazy_face:

I’ll end with a couple of footnotes:

Hannibal Lecter : I’ve read the case files. Have you? Everything you need to find him is right there in those pages.

Hannibal Lecter:
First principles, Clarice: simplicity. Read Marcus Aurelius, “Of each particular thing, ask: What is it in itself? What is its nature?” What does he do, this man you seek?

See Homeopathy and COVID-19 and Homeopathy - Coronavirus Pandemic.


I think they are burning some “classics” - like this one. :rofl:

"Just when you thought it could not get any more corrupt, the Democrats have demonstrated to the world that they are beyond all morality, ethics, and are outright corrupt.

Tucked inside House Democrats’ new coronavirus bill is language that would create a loophole in states’ voter ID requirements, allowing people to cast ballots without having to prove who they are.

After accusing Russia of influencing the 2016 election, they are trying to sneak in open-season for total corruption. It has long been a joke in Chicago where all the dead manage to vote Democratic in elections and the number of votes always exceeds the population.

Now they want votes to be counted with no proof of who you are, alive, dead, an illegal alien not paying taxes or a tourist from Europe, or perhaps even from Mars with green or grey skin."
