BARBIE: CLICK https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJLSIP9TD3k [10:20] to hear a scathing review by Dr. Ted Baehr. “The movie is worse than you could possibly expect. It’s hardcore propaganda … attack on men and women alike.” From what else I’ve read, it sounds like it glorifies the Sin of Eve – i.e., the desire to control men.

BIDEN CRIME FAMILY: FBI documents released yesterday by Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) provide more evidence of the pay-to-play skulduggery of Joe and his clan. In them, an FBI confidential human source (CHS) reported what Burisma’s co-founder and CEO Mykola Zlochevsky told him about a meeting he had in in August 2016 when Joe Biden was Obama’s VP and point man on all things Ukraine.

According to the CHS report, the Bidens coerced Zlochevsky into paying the Bidens $10 million in exchange for using the weight of the United States government on his behalf. Ukrainian prosecutor Viktor Shokin was investigating Burisma; Zlochevsky wanted him gone. So money changed hands, Shokin got the ax, and the investigation into Burisma dirty dealings disappeared. Zlochevsky later told the CHS that he had seventeen recordings to back up his claim, two with Joe Biden and 15 with Hunter Biden.

DESTROYING AMERICA: Open borders, inflation, crippling debt, political division, social unrest, moral corruption, rampant violence, and the destruction of our once vast military capacity … let me think. What else has he done to get us ready to be conquered by the forces of Anti-Christ? Oh yes. Deplete our oil reserve. Stephen Green at PJ Media explains,

“The SPR was created under President Gerald Ford in 1975 following the 1973–1974 Arab oil embargo, which turned out to be just the first of that decade’s two major oil shocks. Set in massive salt caverns in Louisiana and Texas, the SPR was supposed to hold enough crude oil—714 million barrels— to help us weather any future embargo. It took until about 2010—35 years!—to fill those reservoirs all the way up. It took Dementia Joe just two years to cut our reserves in half, down to levels not seen since 1983.”

Edward Luwak at Unherd explains at the link below why he believes China is preparing for war.

FAUXTUS: CLICK https://twitter.com/bennyjohnson/status/1682184063480733696 [:07] to hear our Commander-in-Chief say, “How many times you read in infla – that a recession’s comin’? They’ven in Wall Street today said no they don’t see a resheck comin’ now.”

PRACTICING THE PRESENCE OF GOD: In his book, Brother Lawrence shows us how to practice the presence of God, which he calls “the holiest, most common, most necessary practice in the spiritual life.” The practice of the presence of God is to take delight in his divine company and to talk lovingly with him at all times, especially in times of temptation, suffering, spiritual aridity, disgust, and even of unfaithfulness and sin. “By this continual mindfulness of God we shall crush the head of the devil and cause his weapons to fall from his hand.”

N.b., continual mindfulness of God is not the same as the self-centered mindfulness promoted by New Agers.

UK: Nigel Farage is a British broadcaster and former politician who heavily supported Brexit. His bank closed his accounts because his political beliefs did not align with their own. IOW, he isn’t bending the knee at the Wrongs’ altar.

This kind of thing will only become more common as we speed toward the end of time. We need to be fully prayed up at all times so that, when the caca hits the propeller, we will not cave to pressure or fear, but be bold in the Lord and confident in our salvation.
