Third Day of Advent

DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, Show us in a deeper way today how much You love us! In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

EVERYDAY HEROES: CLICK https://www.youtube.com/shorts/1SnzdUv3MG0 to hear what Devan did for Nola. I checked and this is true. It happened in 2022.

FLOTUS: CLICK https://x.com/FLOTUS/status/1995493761363906621 [1:05] to see what Melania Trump did with the White House for Christmas.

HEALING PRAYERS: “Andrew is fighting for his life,” Trump added. “His parents are unbelievably great people, highly religious people. And, they’re praying, and they want everybody to pray for Andrew. He has a chance to make it.”

Heavenly Father, we come before you in faith, seeking your healing touch for Andrew. We believe in your power to restore him to full health and well-being. Ease his pain, heal his wounds, and fill His soul with peace. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

HOLIDAY SHOPPING: “You can pour in sauces, salad dressings, milk, broth, syrups, meat gravy, cheese dips and anything else you can think of. Microwave and Dishwasher Safe.”

INQUIRING MINDS: “The next time some academics tell you how important diversity is, ask them how many Republicans there are in their Sociology department.” – Thomas Sowell

MEDIA: CLICK https://x.com/WesternLensman/status/1993705367084134469 [1:16] to see Jen Psaki (who is apparently suffering from post-Botox eye droop) and Glenn Kirschner say that the Department of War investigating Sen. Mark Kelly is worthy of a Nuremberg trial.

MINNESOTA: More than 400 employees of the Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) their governor is “100% responsible for massive fraud in Minnesota.”

“We let Tim Walz know of fraud early on, hoping for a partnership in stopping fraud but no, we got the opposite response. Tim Walz systematically retaliated against whistleblowers using monitoring, threats, repression, and did his best to discredit fraud reports. In addition to retaliating against whistleblower[s], Tim Walz disempowered the Office of the Legislative Auditor, allowing agencies to disregard their audit findings and guidance.”

PRAYER for OUR NATION: Dear Lord, Thank You for all the days You have and will carry us. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

SECRET SANTA: Watch to the end. [6:27] – “People are so good.”

TDS: CLICK https://x.com/MarcoFoster_/status/1994051515900744009 [1:03] to hear David Letterman declare that Trump is not only a dictator, but he is the worst one the world has ever seen.

  1. Enver Pasha of Turkey: Death toll =1.1 to 2.5 million

  13. Mao Zedong of China: Death toll = 45 to 75 million

TRUMP’S PHYSICAL: “As part of President Donald J. Trump’s comprehensive executive physical, advanced imaging was performed because men in his age group benefit from a thorough evaluation of cardiovascular and abdominal health. The purpose of this imaging is preventive: to identify issues early, confirm overall health, and ensure he maintains long-term vitality and function.

“President Trump’s cardiovascular imaging is perfectly normal. There is no evidence of arterial narrowing impairing blood flow or abnormalities in the heart or major vessels. The heart chambers are normal in size, the vessel walls appear smooth and healthy, and there are no signs of inflammation, or clotting. Overall, his cardiovascular system shows excellent health.

“His abdominal imaging is also perfectly normal. All major organs appear very healthy and well-perfused. Everything evaluated is functioning within normal limits with no acute or chronic concerns.

“SUMMARY: This level of detailed assessment is standard for an executive physical at President Trump’s age and confirms that he remains in excellent overall health.”

VALUES: The people who celebrated Charlie Kirk’s assassination are offended that Trump said this.

GRAMMY NOTES: I remember one day when my mom handed me a piece of leftover pie for breakfast. Since I usually got an egg with toast and orange juice, I raised my brows and she said, “It’s got egg, wheat, and fruit in it!”

DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, Send Your Holy Spirit on all those You have called to preach Your Word. Protect them from harm and keep them in the center of Your will. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

BALLROOM: If the president were a Democrat, they’d be calling the change historic, visionary, and long overdue.

EVERYDAY HEROES: When Navy sailor Douglas Hegdahl was captured during the Vietnam War and thrown into the infamous Hanoi Hilton prison, he pretended to be clumsy, slow-witted, and illiterate. His captors gave him freedom to wander around the camp, because they thought he was too simple to be a threat. He memorized the names, capture dates, and conditions of 256 of his fellow prisoners, setting the information to the tune of “Old MacDonald Had a Farm” which he sang silently in his head, day after day, so he wouldn’t forget a thing.

All of the POWs had agreed that no one would accept early release. However, when the North Vietnamese offered to send Hegdahl home as a propaganda stunt, his fellow prisoners told him to go. His “Old MacDonald” information was some of the most valuable intelligence of the war. He later attended the Paris Peace Talks and confronted the North Vietnamese with his firsthand information about the mistreatment of prisoners.

HOME INVASION: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/reel/1073076184932051 to see how to make a secret room. I’m thinking it would be a good place to keep a phone and a gun.

MILITARY: Secretary of War Pete Hesgeth has directed the USS Gerald R. Ford aircraft carrier and its strike group to augment Trump’s war on drugs in Central and South America.

PRAYER for OUR NATION: Dear Lord, Remind us always that the only downsides of not praying are record levels of anxiety, depression, addiction, and loneliness. In Jesus’ Name, we PRAY. Amen.

S&G: CLICK https://x.com/DerrickEvans4WV/status/1981846394462724138 to hear a trannie say he 100% supports abortion up to and after birth. “F*** them kids.”

SNAP: The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) will be broke as of Nov. 1. If you’re able, google “food pantry near me” and donate. Every food pantry will be getting heavy traffic this month as low income families struggle to get through the Schumer Shutdown.

FYI: Ours has recommended that, unless we already have something, we donate cash rather than buy food to donate. Reason being, they can buy food for less than we can.

TRUMP: Libtards’ latest rant is, “He’s not leaving!” Puh-leeze. The man is a BILLIONAIRE with a gorgeous wife, wonderful family, a home and hobbies he loves. He is working for us, taking zero salary, but you’re sure he’s not leaving? We’re lucky he’s willing to do this for four years.

VIRGINIA: CLICK https://x.com/JackPosobiec/status/1981885818764464151 [1:17] to see an undercover video from Human Events purporting to show Maame Ama Deegeb, a Spanberger campaign organizer, giggling and rolling her eyes about the murder of Charlie Kirk.

DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, We praise You and we thank You in ALL circumstances and in Jesus’ Name! Amen.

ASTROTURF: [4:48] – Independent journalist Nate Friedman has revealed the link between a professional protester and the Democrat Party’s fundraising platform, ActBlue.

CHARLIE KIRK: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/reel/1157611495924027 to hear him calmly debate an angry, combative young woman on democracy and the value of higher education.

EVERYDAY HEROES: “’You’ll ruin your future,’ my dad said when I told him my girlfriend was pregnant. My dad was loud about it, but rent was louder, so I grabbed night shifts and kept my classes. Emily—then my girlfriend, later my wife—and I rented a tiny place off campus with thin walls and a secondhand crib that creaked when I rocked it. I printed notes at 2 a.m., packed bottles at 6, and pushed Lily’s stroller past freshmen yawning on the steps. A professor frowned at the stroller; I stood in the back and finished the presentation while Lily colored on my handouts. When daycare fell through, I studied in the parking lot while she slept in the backseat, and the dashboard clock blinked. On my graduation day, I held Lily in one arm and my diploma in the other; Emily cried and laughed in the same breath. Twenty years later, Emily squeezed my hand, I held flowers, and we watched Lily cross that same stage.”

LITERACY: I saw a post on Facebook about a “book vending machine” in a school and had to google. I’ve never heard of them before. Kids can buy books with tokens they earn for good behavior. What a wonderful idea!

POST TRAUMA GROWTH: Yes! We had to CHOOSE to USE the trauma to become who we are now. And then we had to work our butts off to make it happen. But for me, the choice was a no brainer. I mean, if you get stuck in mud, would you just sit there forever?! No, you get out and get the help you need to move past it and live again.

PRAYER for OUR NATION: Dear Lord, Fill our leaders with Your wisdom and lead them in justice and truth. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

GRAMMY NOTES: [3:08] – Years ago, my mother decided to make a bouquet of the last roses of the season in her garden and take them to a woman she knew at the local TB sanitorium. When she walked in the door, the woman burst into tears saying, “Today is the 9th day of my novena to St. Therese!”

DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, Confuse every enemy attack and send it back to sender. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

BIDEN: [5:27] – Did you ever notice how often KJP et al. spoke of “the president” or “this president” with such sincerity? It makes me wonder if they were really talking to Obama and genuinely believed he was THE president.

BOLTON: [8:01] – On August 22, 2025, at about 7 a.m., FBI agents raided John Bolton’s home in Bethesda, Maryland. The word on the street is they had a warrant to search for classified documents. The Epoch Times said, “The FBI did not provide a substantive reply in response to an inquiry”, but noted FBI Director Kash Patel had posted on X, “NO ONE is above the law … @FBI agents on mission” and that FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino, had shared this, writing, “Public corruption will not be tolerated.” Attorney General Pam Bondi wrote on X, “America’s safety isn’t negotiable. Justice will be pursued. Always.

CALIFORNICATION: In the 2024 presidential election, nearly 40% of California voters chose Trump; fewer than 20% of California’s seats in the U.S. House of Representatives are filled by Republicans. But never mind all that! Democrats rule California and they want more! On August 21, Gov. Newsom on Aug. 21 signed a legislative package to put a measure on the Nov. 4 ballot that would redraw the state’s congressional map to redraw the boundaries for five of those nine seats, to give each of them a greater share of Democrat voters.

FLORIDA: CLICK https://x.com/nicksortor/status/1958583144636195231 [1:24] to see Harjinder Singh, the illegal trucker who killed 3 people on August 13, get extradited from California. Florida did not issue an arrest warrant until August 15. Singh flew from Florida to California on the 14th and was apprehended by U.S. Marshals on August 16 without incident. He agreed to be transferred back to Florida to face charges. CLICK https://x.com/SplitMethod/status/1958628510169538841 [:22] to see video filmed by someone who drove by the accident Singh caused.

MAHA: [13:49] – Bobby Kennedy is not planning to run for president. He wants to put his efforts into fixing the vaccine court.

MEDIA: [3:23] – The White House Bureau Chief for the Washington Post reveals their agenda is not informing voters. Donald Trump owned the Miss Universe Organization (which includes Miss Universe, Miss USA and Miss Teen) from 1996 to 2015.

PARTY DEMOGRAPHICS: Between the 2020 and 2024 elections, in the 30 states (and D.C.) that allow voter registrations by party, Democrats lost about 2.1 million registered voters while Republicans gained about 2.4 million.

CLICK https://x.com/WesternLensman/status/1958191652243198082 [1:18] to hear what Joe Scarborough’s guest, Molly Jong-Fast, says is the reason. As Napoleon Bonaparte said, “Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.”

PEACE TALKS: I remember when Democrats cheered because Obama said he would talk to ANY world leader without preconditions. But Trump talks to Putin and they yell, “Russia is our enemy!! How DARE he talk to Putin?!

RUSSIA vs UKRAINE: Not long after Putin met with Trump in Alaska, the Russian army launched one of its largest overnight strikes since the war began. More than six hundred drones, ballistic and cruise missiles landed on Ukraine, killing one, injuring dozens and destroying an American-owned electronics company less than an hour from two NATO borders.

SCOTUS: The Supremes voted 5–4 on Aug. 21 to allow the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to cancel hundreds of millions of dollars in research grants linked to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. The Trump administration argued that National Institutes of Health grants conflict with the president’s policy goals.

TRANS: OMG interview with Vanessa Savidge [1:34:20] – Vanessa Sivadge thought she’d found her dream job as a pediatric nurse at the nation’s top children’s hospital. Instead, she says she watched doctors steer healthy kids into gender transitions, prescribing powerful drugs, billing taxpayers, and hiding it from the public.

Out of her concern for the kids, she spoke anonymously in 2023 with journalist Christopher Rufo about the hospital having publicly claimed to have shut down the transgender medicine program, yet said it was continuing. Approximately two months after that interview, two FBI agents, Paul Nixon and David McBride, came to her home, identifying her as a “person of interest” in an investigation related to a whistleblower who had exposed the program, alleging a violation of federal privacy laws (HIPAA).

She claimed the agents intimidated her, stating they would “make life difficult” for her if she was protecting the leaker and suggested she was “not safe” at work, implying someone at her workplace had given her name to the FBI. Doorbell camera footage shared by Rufo captured the agents at her door, asking to speak with her about “some of the things that have been going on at [her] work lately.

I am gobsmacked that those two FBI agents showed up on official business wearing jeans and casual shirts.

GRAMMY NOTES: Aidan Perry, a young Florida man, survived being shot in the chest because a cross pendant his dad gave him last Christmas deflected the bullet. [4:35] – When my brother was in Vietnam, he was shot in the torso by a sniper. The bullet did massive damage, his recovery was long, and he has had some lifelong health issues as a result. But what the bullet did not do was kill him. The surgeon who removed the bullet said that, based on its trajectory, it should have gone straight through his heart. The surgeon said it had not hit anything that could have deflected it. It just altered course inside my brother’s chest and went around his heart!

DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, Thank You for the divine protection You provided the pilot and passengers of this plane who all escaped the crash without suffering serious harm. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

CENSUS: Our next census is coming up in 2030 and it’s time for the government to start designing it. Trump has ordered that the next one be highly accurate and not count illegals.

D.C.: CLICK https://x.com/theblaze/status/1954917082652348548 to hear Trump announce he has ordered National Guard troops to become force multipliers on the ground to assist the overwhelmed DC Police Force.

CLICK https://x.com/nicksortor/status/1954985421173297298 to hear what the president of the DC Police Union said about it.

J6: On August 11, 2025, Nancy Pelosi tweeted, “Donald Trump delayed deploying the National Guard on January 6th when our Capitol was under violent attack and lives were at stake. Now, he’s activating the DC Guard to distract from his incompetent mishandling of tariffs, health care, education and immigration — just to name a few blunders.

Stephen Sund, who was Chief of Capitol Police that fateful day, replied, “Ma’am, it is long past time to be honest with the American people. On January 3, I requested National Guard assistance, but your Sergeant at Arms denied it. Under federal law (2 U.S.C. §1970), I was prohibited from calling them in without specific approval. That same day, Carol Corbin at the Pentagon offered National Guard support, but I was forced to decline because I lacked the legal authority. On January 6, while the Capitol was under attack and despite my repeated calls, your Sergeant at Arms again denied my urgent requests for over 70 agonizing minutes, ‘running it up the chain’ for your approval. When I needed assistance, it was denied. Yet when it suited you, you ordered fencing topped with concertina wire and surrounded the Capitol with thousands of armed National Guard troops.

MEDIA: When a reporter asked Trump if he would build a “big, beautiful briefing room,” Trump dismissed the idea, joking he had no interest in making life more comfortable for the media.

MILITARY: “We don’t fight because we hate what’s in front of us. We fight because we love what’s behind us.” [3:00] – The Defense Department says, “The media’s narrative that the female recruitment numbers have either fallen or stayed the same under Secretary Hegseth and President Trump is 100% Fake News.” Under Biden, the total number of female military recruits at this point in the fiscal year was 16,725. Under Trump, it’s 23,985.

SCHIFF: FBI Director Kash Patel has released bombshell documents to Congress showing that Shifty Schiff approved leaking classified information to smear then-President Donald Trump over the now-debunked Russiagate scandal. In addition, when concerned individuals told DOJ officials the evidence, they did nothing.

TEXAS: State Dem legislators continue to refuse to come to work. Gov. Abbott says their behavior is absurd, since he is “authorized to call a special session every 30 days. It lasts 30 days. And as soon as this one is over, I’m gonna call another one, then another one, then another, then another one.”

VAXXX: Trump has ordered all federal agencies to eliminate any record of a federal employeeʼs COVID-19 vaccination status, prior noncompliance with vaccine mandates, or requests for exemptions from such mandates. In other news, a new poll shows a majority of Americans do not intend to get the COVID-19 vaccine this fall and that less than half trust the government to ensure vaccine safety.

YMCA: DEFINITELY CLICK https://x.com/VividProwess/status/1954694252308660255 to enjoy an Israeli dance couple dressed as Donald and Melania absolutely kill it with “YMCA.” It’s a fabulous routine that brought back sweet memories.

DAILY PRAYER: Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our deaths. Amen.

AI: Helpful advice for discerning what is real. [2:40] – I actually dismissed the bunnies as AI the first time I saw them, but only because we get to watch real bunnies in our back yard regularly. Only one and sometimes two come in the evening, before dark, to roll around in our sand pit and eat the clover etc. in our never-sprayed lawn. They tend to stay near the bushes and stop what they’re doing often to check their surroundings, because they’re prey. The idea that a whole herd of them would cavort, together, and after dark seemed absurd.

WAR ON DRUGS: [28:49] – Fentanyl is an extremely potent synthetic opioid similar to morphine, but more powerful. It is a prescription drug but is also manufactured illegally and is sometimes mixed with other illicit drugs such as heroin and cocaine, often without the user’s knowledge. The potency of fentanyl makes it very addictive and puts users at a high risk for overdose.

Illegally manufactured fentanyl has become more prevalent in the United States in recent years, leading to a huge increase in drug overdose deaths. Fentanyl overdoses are now the driving force behind the opioid epidemic, accounting for the majority of overdose deaths in the United States. In 2023, around 72,776 people in the United States died from a drug overdose that involved fentanyl.
