DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, Please bless the American bishops and Pope Leo with a broader and more accurate understanding of our battle to save our country. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.
CATHOLIC: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/reel/1191212856257538 to see extraordinary footage of what happened to a man who tried to break into a Tabernacle. Stay to listen to the priest’s important message after. I’m sorry the thumbnail is so hard to see.
EPSTEIN: [7:30] – “It’s not like they were 8 year olds.” That reminds me of Whoopi Goldberg saying it wasn’t that big of a deal that Roman Polanski had drugged and raped a 13-year-old girl, because “It wasn’t rape rape.” CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=1341929594065803 [1:56] to hear why we still support Trump.
EVERYDAY HEROES: When it was their turn to have pictures taken with Snow White, Brody was having an autism meltdown. His mom writes, “Snow White was absolutely amazing with him! She kissed, hugged and cuddled him. He was laying his head crying on her lap. She then took him for a walk away from the crowd. She was amazing. She held his hand, danced with him, took him over to a bench and sat with him. She went above and beyond! She took so much time with him and was a pure angel! She was simply magical, and my family is forever thankful and touched.”
FLOOD MANAGEMENT: Fascinating! [26:12] – Where I live, flooding is a given. I never thought it would be a problem in the high desert. I know this one is long, but I was riveted, so maybe you will be also. 🙂
ICE: On November 9, Akhror Bozorov (31) was arrested while he was driving an 18-wheeler in Kansas. In 2022, Bozorov’s native Uzbekistan accused him of having ties to terrorists and issued a warrant for his arrest. He fled to the U.S. where, in February 2023, he was arrested by Border Patrol attempting to cross the border.
Despite the fact that his home country has labeled him a terrorist, the Biden administration granted him authorization to work and released him. Then Pennsylvania, under Gov. Josh Shapiro, gave him a Commercial Driver’s License. Cuz, yeah, terrorist illegal aliens should totes be operating 18-wheelers on America’s highways.
Even worse, Bozorov’s driver’s license has a REAL ID star on it, meaning he could use it to board a domestic flight or enter a secure federal facility or military base. Cuz, why wouldn’t we want to give terrorist illegal aliens ready access to high value terror targets?
According to the TSA website below, only someone who has met “all federal regulations that establish minimum security standards” can get a REAL ID. Riiiiiiiiight.

LIFE: I have never understood abortion for terminally ill fetuses. If the only life they get is in the womb, then let them have every minute. And let them die peacefully, not torn apart or burned to death. I have personally known two women who received the devastating news that their babies would not live much beyond birth. Both carried to natural delivery and never regretted it.

PHILATELY: I definitely want one of these for my collection! The origami crane has long been a symbol of hope, peace, and healing. The stamp was designed using a photograph from the Peace Crane Project. The following is from their website –
“The Peace Crane Project invites every student on the planet to fold an origami crane, write a message of peace on its wings, then exchange it with another student somewhere in the world. The Project builds friendships, strengthens hand-eye coordination and writing skills, teaches geography, exposes students to new languages and cultures, and EMPOWERS YOUTH to make a difference in their community, country, and world. Classrooms, teachers, students, schools, community groups, and individuals are welcome. It’s FREE to participate!”

PRAYER for OUR NATION: Dear Lord, Pour out Your Spirit of reconciliation upon every community in our great nation. Let forgiveness flow like a river and love mend what hatred has torn. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

TRUMP SHOOTER: [7:18] – Miranda Devine reports that the Biden FBI lied to Congress and the American people about what the shooter’s online history revealed. After the July 13, 2024 assassination attempt in Butler, PA, then-FBI Director Chris Wray told Congress that the bureau had found nothing in Crooks’ online history that pointed to a motive or political ideology.
However, Crooks’ accounts on YouTube, Snapchat, Venmo, Zelle, GroupMe, Discord, Google Play, Quizlet, Chess.com and Quora showed that, while he had briefly been pro-Trump, he had switched sides, becoming radicalized and increasingly obsessed with political violence. All of this happened under his real name. There’s simply no way the FBI didn’t know it when they told us the exact opposite.
GRAMMY NOTES: When our #2 enlisted, she had a college degree, so could have gone to OCS immediately. Saying that, if she was ever going to lead soldiers, she should first be a soldier, she chose instead to go to regular boot camp as an E-1 Private. When she met her husband, she was a Specialist and he outranked her. Despite knowing it would mean she would not only outrank, but also outearn him, he encouraged her to follow her dream. When she graduated from OCS, I couldn’t be there to see him give her her first salute, so watching this clip was doubly special for me.
