IMPEACHMENT: [3:09] – Democrats are still withholding evidence.

BIDEN: [12:49] – Rudy Giuliani lays out the Biden’s corruption in Iraq, Ukraine, and China, then talks about the so-called “bail reform” fiasco in NYC.

FACT CHECK: I keep seeing variations on this graphic on Facebook. While the “corruptocrats” point of it is valid and timely, the facts of it are inaccurate. Sadly, getting the facts wrong diminishes the impact of the meme and leaves us open to the Democrats’ favorite, elitist “Republicans are stupid” accusation. If we want to be the party of the smart people, we need to be more careful about our memes!

BIDEN: Joe’s son, Hunter, and Hunter’s friend and business partner, Devon Archer, were both on the board of the corrupt Ukrainian gas company, Burisma, while Joe Biden was serving as Obama’s VP and point man to Ukraine.

ROMNEY: A top advisor to Mitt Romney’s 2012 presidential campaign served on the board of Burisma.

PELOSI: Nancy’s son, Paul, Jr., was once a member of the management team of Viscoil and NRGLab, which did some of its business in Ukraine.

KERRY: While John Kerry was Obama’s Secretary of State, his stepson, Christopher Heinz, was the third partner with Hunter Biden and Devon Archer in an investment firm called Rosemont Seneca. Reportedly, Hunter and Devon hooking up with Burisma caused so much tension that Christopher left Rosemont Seneca.

RELIGIOUS RIGHTS: “You cannot serve God and money.” (Matt 6:24) – Tennessee Republican Gov. Bill Lee recently signed into law HB 836, which would ensure that licensed adoption agencies cannot be forced to make child placement decisions that “violate the agency’s written religious or moral convictions or policies,” and cannot be sued, denied public funds, or be rejected for license applications on the basis of such a decision.

Note that the law does not forbid adoption agencies from choosing to place children with same sex homes. It says adoption agencies cannot be forced to do so against their religious or moral convictions.

A variety of social science literature supports the conviction that children are best served by homes with both a mother and a father, yet a coalition of companies calling itself Tennessee Businesses Against Discrimination have spoken out against HB 836 and upcoming similar laws.

“We believe Tennessee’s continued growth and innovation rely on the state being open and welcoming to everyone,” the coalition’s letter stated.

And by “open and welcoming to everyone” they mean “EXCEPT anybody who disagrees with our anti-God agenda. THOSE people have to be stomped into submission.”

Among the signatories are Amazon, American Airlines, Dell, Lyft, Marriott, Nike, and more than 100 small businesses within the state.

Stand strong, Tennessee. Those signatories will not be the one sitting on the throne at Judgment.

PSA: Dog lovers – Xylitol is used as a substitute for sugar in baking mixes, jello, candy, gum, and oral care products. As it contains far fewer calories than sugar and has a much lower glycemic index, xylitol is popular for diabetics and people watching their weight.

But it is DEADLY TO DOGS!

Chocolate is also toxic to dogs, but it takes more to cause harm. Just a quarter of a teaspoon can kill a dog.

Rapid response is essential. If a dog does ingest xylitol, getting it to a vet within 30 minutes is critical.
