Do you guys support any of the "non-mainstream" party candidates? Such as Nikki Haley, Andrew Yang, Jill Stein, Marianne Williamson?

[Big Boy Johnson]

some kind of substantial deeper change in our society and culture is needed for us to truly reunite and move forward, as "one nation under God" as He originally intended us to be

Yes, the change that is coming is the one world government and the US surrendering it's sovereignty to it

When the time comes, all the globalists will be so happy since it will be a communist system like china's.

And, it definitely will NOT be of the Lord.

Repealing this... is where the country started going down hill

The Eighteenth Amendment was ratified on January 16, 1919, the result of years of advocacy by the temperance movement. The subsequent enactment of the Volstead Act established federal enforcement of the nationwide prohibition on alcohol. As many Americans continued to drink despite the amendment, Prohibition gave rise to a profitable black market for alcohol, fueling the rise of organized crime. Throughout the 1920s, Americans increasingly came to see Prohibition as unenforceable, and a movement to repeal the Eighteenth Amendment grew until the Twenty-first Amendment was ratified in 1933.

Section 1 of the Twenty-first Amendment expressly repeals the Eighteenth Amendment. Section 2 bans the importation of alcohol into states and territories that have laws prohibiting the importation or consumption of alcohol. Several states continued to be "dry states" in the years after the repealing of the Eighteenth Amendment. Nonetheless, several states continue to closely regulate the distribution of alcohol. Many states delegate their power to ban the importation of alcohol to counties and municipalities, and there are numerous dry communities throughout the United States. Section 2 has occasionally arisen as an issue in Supreme Court cases that touch on the Commerce Clause.

Women Led the Temperance Charge​

Temperance began in the early 1800s as a movement to limit drinking in the United States. The movement combined a concern for general social ills with religious sentiment and practical health considerations in a way that was appealing to many middle-class reformers. Women in particular were drawn to temperance in large numbers. Temperance reformers blamed “demon rum” for corrupting American culture and leading to violence, immorality and death.

The earliest temperance reformers were concerned with the overindulgence of American drinkers and encouraged moderation. By 1830, the average American older than 15 consumed at least seven gallons of alcohol a year. Alcohol abuse was rampant, and temperance advocates argued that it led to poverty and domestic violence. Some of these advocates were in fact former alcoholics themselves. In 1840, six alcoholics in Baltimore, Maryland, founded the Washingtonian Movement, one of the earliest precursors to Alcoholics Anonymous, which taught sobriety, or “teetotalism,” to its members. Teetotalism, so named for the idea of capital “T” total abstinence, emerged in this period and would become the dominant perspective of temperance advocates for the next century.

Women were active in the movement from the beginning. By 1831, there were 24 women’s organizations dedicated to temperance. It was an appealing cause because it sought to end a phenomenon that directly affected many women’s quality of life. Temperance was painted as a religious and moral duty that paired well with other feminine responsibilities. If total abstinence was achieved, the family, its home, its health and even its salvation would be secure. Women crusaders, particularly middle-class Protestants, pointed toward the Christian virtues of prudence, temperance and chastity, and encouraged people to practice these virtues by abstaining from alcohol.

The Civil War put an immediate, if temporary, end to early temperance efforts. States needed the tax revenue earned through alcohol sales, and many temperance reformers focused on bigger issues such as abolition or the health of soldiers. As the United States returned to life as usual in the 1870s, the next wave of temperance advocates set to work – this time with an aim at changing laws along with hearts. The Women’s Christian Temperance Union (WCTU) was one such group.

Volstead Act, U.S. law enacted in 1919 (and taking effect in 1920) to provide enforcement for the Eighteenth Amendment, prohibiting the manufacture and sale of alcoholic beverages. It is named for Minnesota Rep. Andrew Volstead, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, who had championed the bill and prohibition.

The act was vetoed by Pres. Woodrow Wilson, but it became law after Congress voted to override the veto. In addition, individual states passed further enabling and enforcing legislation. All the states enacted laws to help carry the Volstead Act into effect, although Nevada’s was later held unconstitutional. Such state laws were repealed in five cases (New York in 1923; Wisconsin, Montana, and Nevada in 1929; and Illinois in 1931).

UN Assembly President outlines vision for 2024​

16 January 2024

Emphasizing a commitment to addressing pressing challenges, President Dennis Francis signalled a determined push for transformative change.

“We must set our sights squarely on the Summit of the Future – the pivotal event of 2024 – where world leaders are expected to gather here in New York and forge a new global consensus on how to better deliver for people and planet,” he said.

With a focus on “supercharging” the implementation of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), preparations for the Summit will take centre stage from now until September.

“We must seize every opportunity to adapt our systems for good governance and the efficient delivery of global public goods,” he added.

The president’s term spans the sessions of the General Assembly. For Mr. Francis, President of the 78th session of the Assembly, his term started on 5 September last year and will end on 10 September 2024.

In his address, President Francis underscored the importance of peace as the “ultimate goal of our collective efforts” and the “bedrock upon which everything we do will rest”.

“It is, therefore, crucial that we [...] demonstrate both our political will and our ability to make this world a more peaceful and secure one,” he said.

Key events​

He also announced a series of significant events the upcoming months, including the inaugural Sustainability Week (April); the fourth International Conference on Small Island Developing States (Antigua and Barbuda, April); the third Conference on Landlocked Developing Countries (Rwanda, June).

Also on the calendar is a high-level meeting on antimicrobial resistance; and a commemorative event marking the 30th anniversary of the 1994 International Conference on Population and Development.

They got plans for us. I don't think they are the same kinds of plans the Lord has planned for us though.

The Sustainable Development Goals are the blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all. They address the global challenges we face, including those related to poverty, inequality, climate change, environmental degradation, peace and justice. The 17 Goals are all interconnected, and in order to leave no one behind, it is important that we achieve them all by 2030.

Trump on Nikki Haley last night in New Hampshire....


"She is OK, but she is not presidential timber, and when I say that, that probably means she is not going to be chosen as the vice president," Trump told his Concord, New Hampshire, rally Friday night.

"When you say certain things, it sort of takes them out of play, right? I can't say, 'She's not of the timber to be the vice president' and then say, 'Ladies and gentleman, I'm proud to announce that I've picked ..."

Republicans will flock to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, from July 15-18, 2024, for their national convention to formally select their party’s next presidential nominee, according to a Wednesday announcement from the Republican National Committee.

So Trump or whoever is elected as a Republican nominee has until July to choose a VP?

Democrat national convention runs from August 19-22, 2024

There are 3 General election debates between the Nominees on Sept. 16, Oct 1, and Oct 9th.

I don't care how many men Niki has slept with.

Have a major problem with her sleeping around, when her military husband is overseas protecting her right to sleep around.

 

[Writer]

The people voted for Barabas, a criminal. They were fed up with all the controversies surrounding Jesus and His big mouth that kept getting Him kicked out of synagogues for speaking the truth.

To determine who can actually run and manage a country like America, only one thing must happen..."MUST". First respect everybody's individual right to choose. In doing so, you will sit down and ask yourself, what will Americans choose as a body, diverse as we are and everything, over any other thing or things. I believe the answer is simple.

1. Provide for every type and Kinds of Jobs for everyone possible so people can "CHOOSE" their road to pursue their Happiness, and then tell the government to get the HEIGH out of their way, defund the IRS and de-weaponise them. Only one person I know can do that Job today...ONLY ONE!

2. Protect the "Government of the PEOPLE" from being robbed of their rights by citizens of foreign countries who recieve "NEW HOMES" and are bussed to their new residences by an existing deep state in plain sight government so they can send millions of mail ballots to their new found voters who have been promised homes in America, and leave our homeless citizens and Veterens to hell. They are placed in section 8 housing and pay only what they can, and the rest is subsidized by our deep state in plain sight government in action with our tax dollars.
Only one person I know can do this Job today...ONLY ONE!

3. Re-Establish our economy and growth quickly and suddenly by contacting foreign countries taking advantage of our blessings...FOR FREE...like UKRAINE, Iran who got "BILLIONS" from us to build NUKES, and others...AND MAKE THEM PAY IT BACK. Theres only on person I know who can do this Job today...ONLY ONE!.

4. Protect our security by first securing our boarders, REFUND THE POLICE, get rid of the "DEEP STATE", Close the China loop holes in our country and prevent them from getting land grabs from the deep state in plain sight government. Shut them all down, and re-establish no fly zones from known sponsers of terror from fly in and landing in our airports. Also, warn every nation that at the first sighting of balloons flying over our air space we will shoot them down, and if we discover anything that resembels a military threat, we will consider it an act of war. There is only one person I know who can do this Job today...ONLY ONE!

5. Build incentives for growth in manufacturing and oil refineries; AND DRILL BABY DRILL.

6. Domestically; restore the sacred honor that made America Great for the last 230 years before Obama cared, as well as provide tax credits to anyone choosing School choice alternatives from now and into the future.

Restore our trust in God again, Restore our courts again, Restore our Faith again, and Restore America's greatness again.

THERE IS ONLY ONE PERSON WHO CAN DO THIS JOB TODAY. WILL YOU CHOOSE BARABAS AND ALI BABBA AGAIN, OR WILL YOU CHOOSE FREEDOM.

Be it known that God chooses our leaders. We are to Trust in the Lord and lean not on our own understanding.

Romans 13:1 - Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God.

Proverbs 3:5 -
Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;

Rubbish !

So God choose Hitler and Stalin in fact, both who were Anti-Christ in fact ! That is what you are saying is it not !

Robert Frances Kennedy would romp it home easy as a Democrat but Joe Biden and Co are a Socialist Democrat, big difference !

The Socialist are not ever Democratic at all in fact they are Nazis and Communist in fact ! The issue of Democratic Socialist is that this is another total deception in fact !

The Socialist Democrats stole the Democratic Party in fact RFK is a true Democrat ! Joe Biden and Obama were Socialist in fact !

Political Correctness is a Socialist concept in fact and such is derived from Hitler and Stalin as such is the same Vomit !

You mean the one that not only didn't drain the swamp but the swamp turned the tables on him and make a complete monkee out of him?... They guy that recently couldn't even remember his wife's name during a speech and caller her Mercedes?

Yeah, what could possibly go wrong?

What's sad is repubs don't have what it takes to lead... they could have picked Desantis who is far more qualified thatn Trump to carry out Trump's own swamp draining policies, but no... repubs are apparently wanting to stick with the monkee on their back which will lead to another 4 years of the US having a democrats prez.

John 19:11 - Jesus answered, “You could have no power at all against Me unless it had been given you from above. Therefore, the one who delivered Me to you has the greater sin.”

Romans 13:1 -
Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God.

Psalms 75:6-7
For exaltation comes neither from the east Nor from the west nor from the south. 7 But God is the Judge: He puts down one, And exalts another.

Daniel 2:21
And He changes the times and the seasons; He removes kings and raises up kings; He gives wisdom to the wise And knowledge to those who have understanding.

Daniel 4:17
This decision is by the decree of the watchers, And the sentence by the word of the holy ones, In order that the living may know That the Most High rules in the kingdom of men, Gives it to whomever He will, and sets over it the lowest of men.’

Jeremiah 27:5
I have made the earth, the man and the beast that are on the ground, by My great power and by My outstretched arm, and have given it to whom it seemed proper to Me.

Proverbs 21:1
The king’s heart is in the hand of the Lord, Like the rivers of water.
He turns it wherever He wishes.

1 Samuel 15:23
For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, And stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of the Lord, He also has rejected you from being king.”

No, I am referring to the one who is not a politician, so he had to learn how "the machine" in DC works - trusting the wrong people too long. His intent to benefit the working-class people was obvious. His disdain for the deep state was also. But, "the machine" worked diligently to prevent him from disrupting their organized tyranny.

He is a more "aware" guy now. Those of us who have been harmed, both medically and financially, so nobody on the horizon with the gumption to try to correct anything - including DeSantis. If you live in Florida, it is easy to see why I say that.

We do not need a meek, polite, and charismatic figurehead now who wears two faces.

However, we are all in different straits and see different solutions to our situation.

 

[Big Boy Johnson]

Yeah, Trump is already on his way to failing yet again. He's so full of pride, love of self, support for abortion and sexual perversion.... no Christian with a clean conscience towards God can vote for him.

Voting for Trump is like voting democrat just based on his support for abortion and the sex perverts alone.

Trump is not our savior... there are many Christians that put more faith in Trump than they do the Lord and for this reason (among others) the Lord is not going to support Trump just like He did not support Him in 2020.

The Lord sets up leaders and takes them down (Daniel 2:21), so don't lose your marbles when you see the 2024 elections result in another 4 years of a democrat in the Whitehouse.

When that happens, many who claim to be Christians will be so filled with fear and anxiety that it will be evident these people do not trust the Lord and instead have put their faith in Trump making them guilty of idolatry
