I think it's disconcerting whenever adults use their children as political pawns to bash a president or politician they don't like. That applies to both sides of the political spectrum, IMO. Children should be protected from online exposure and scrutiny, not thrown to the wolves by their parents.
I agree. That photo is pretty disturbing. We should be protecting our children from even the thoughts of a dirty old man's hands on them. :/

For the record, I don't prescribe to the rhetoric that Democrats are evil and the Democratic party is controlled by Satan. I simply don't accept this political grandstanding and virtue-signalling from the supporters of the former president after living through five long years of Trumpism.

Trumpism destroyed my political allegiance to the Republican party and it shattered the illusion I held that Republicans are more morally righteous compared to Democrats. It was during the former president's first presidential campaign that I realized conservatives weren't immune to being morally compromised. I realized they could be easily persuaded by the allure of power from a greedy charlatan, whose personal life can be fairly characterized as the epitome of the seven deadly sins. The conservative Christians who have politically supported this immoral man with unwavering devotion for the last five years have lost the moral ground to judge President Biden for his sins or for anything controversial he may say or do.

These supporters of the former president would do well to remember... "Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones."
Vmax:
I would not be so naïve to think that any political party can be classified as moral or immoral, ever. I have never read of one in history, or experienced one to date and never will. They are part of the system of government where they consider themselves number one at the expense of those who elected them into office, and of course assuming there were fair elections or even any elections in the process. And one party that tends to be more liberal is no better than a more conservative leaning party. Another constant is that all political parties and their members tend to coalesce and thrive upon unearned big money and undeserving favors, for influence, power and fame.

Trump did wake up many people out of their slumber to recognize that the Deep State is real and to prove my point that no party is 'good.'

The previous Republican regime IMO was even worse. The Bushes have been a wart on this country for decades, and on the other side, the Clintons and Obama machines have been more destruction. They are leaning too far 'left' towards deep socialism and a new form of global communism; not good for any country or nation that wants to keep their identity intact.

And now we are entertained with this purposely mysterious COVID thing, and the never ending what used to be called 'global cooling' to 'global warming' and now to 'climate change' supposedly caused by the common person on the street where the blame should be pointed towards the large object shining in the sky that emits a lot of heat, flares up, and produces erratic solar winds.

The age old feudal system of people control by the crooked and EVIL vampires has never gone away. We are just heading into a new modern form of it today, with both sides of the aisle profiting from it as usual.

So the 'national' political glass house you refer to as worth preserving is short sighted. It worked up until a hundred years or so ago and then with struggles. It is all coming down today whether there is a Trump to crack a few panes of it to wake people up or not. This national political glass structure is being reformed and molded into a much bigger global version. And this will be fortunately shattered completely when Christ returns.

Yes, America exchanged one dirty old man with another on January 20th, 2021. We had a dirty old man before then who is twice divorced, thrice-married, and has committed adultery against each one of his three wives. He has had an affair with a porn star and a playboy bunny, whom he later paid off during his first presidential campaign in order to buy their silence about their extramarital affair. He fathered five children with three different women. He was recorded on tape vulgarly bragging about how he could get away with forcibly kissing women and grabbing them by their private parts because he's a celebrity. Many of his Christian supporters refused to rebuke him and quickly dismissed this vulgar bragging of his sexual exploits as 'locker room talk' and 'macho talk.' Ironically, these same Christians have been piously casting stones at President Biden for his sexual sins.

Please feel free to cast stones against a MURDERER who wasn't perfect, but was GOD's chosen, -- KING DAVID.

And when you're through, then please feel free to continue, starting with yourself.


Oh, yeah, -- I won't be viewing your posts anymore:

Matt. 15:13 ... “Every plant which my heavenly Father has not planted will be rooted up. 14 Let them alone; they are blind guides. And if a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit.”

It's a disturbing image...one I'd sooner forget. Not nearly as disturbing as the brutal videos I hear are easily available online, but at least those are out of sight and we're not constantly reminded of them. You know what they say, "Out of sight, out of mind!"
I like having peace of mind! (sarcasm should be evident)

They're both in the same camp. I have no respect for the previous "president" whatsoever. He wasn't and isn't a Christian, as one cannot be saved without a repentant heart. And he plainly said he has no need of repentance or forgiveness. He DENIED Christ right then and there. And yet those who call themselves Christian worshiped the ground he walked on (and still do). He brought them under a spell. Imo, his evil is stronger than Biden bc at least there's no question Biden is evil. But people have been blinded by a seducing spirit where Trump is concerned, to believe lies. The man trafficked children and women, used his "beauty pageants" as a front to get his perverted kicks. I do know someone personally who witnessed his sexually torturing of young women (contestants in his pageants). I know someone personally whose life was threatened by Trump's mafia bc her husband was a city councilman who voted against his casinos being brought to their city. He bribed her with gifts to try to persuade her to design his casinos. (She was an interior designer.) And it wasn't just her and her husband who were threatened, but several other families of city councilmen who voted against Trump's casinos.

Not only that, but Trump put a stop to natural cures for cancer that were helping people ....especially someone dear to me. His administration imprisoned, jailed, fined, and confiscated supplies that were helping hundreds or more people get well.

No, I don't have any respect for him. God showed me before he went into office that there was a seducing spirit who worked with him and many would fall into his trance. I saw that happen. And I lost friendships over it ....bc they fell for lies. And the kicker is ....he gave a speech to warn people exactly who he is (a snake) ....talk about a deceiver!!

Goodness, his sexual statements about his own daughters should have enraged every mother ....and every father, for that matter. But no, they elevated him to sainthood and changed the gospel to one where a pervert pedophile has no need of repentance in order to be saved. His administration did more to expose false Christianity than any previous administration....we can give him that. He disgusts me.

Biden is no saint and we know that. But people, he is a fall guy, imo. He is following orders from his cult handlers ....he has no problem, bc that's his heart. But people will be so ready to have their "savior" back in the WH after Biden....and that (imo) is the plan. (rant)

Thank you for your replies, @TLHKAJ. It's a relief for me to see another Christian speaking out against the former president. I lost friendships too. I have relatives who no longer speak to me as well. Sadly, their loyalty to the former president is more important to them than family and friends. I couldn't agree more that his administration exposed more false Christianity than any previous administration.

David was called a man after God's heart because he humbled himself, acknowledged his sin, and repented. There is no comparison between David and Trump who denied his need for the Savior on national television. He never had an humble cell in his body. That man is arrogant, haughty, and highminded ....thinking himself higher than God.

“It’s Much Worse Than We Thought” – CNBC’s Jim Cramer Sounds the Alarm on Inflation in the US

By Joe Hoft
Published October 20, 2021 at 7:13pm
T
Mediaite shared the following about Jim Cramer’s discussion today on inflation in the US:

CNBC on Wednesday spoke with hedge fund manager and Robin Hood Foundation founder Paul Tudor Jones, who said that inflation is “much worse than we fear.” A short time later on Squawk Box, CNBC’s Jim Cramer agreed with Jones’ assessment, and added a few more dire words to the mix.

Host Rebecca Quick asked Cramer about inflation, a major topic of the day in finance.

“Let’s talk about inflation and where things stand right now,” she said. “Let’s talk about the questions that investors are kind of wondering right now. If you’re worried about inflation, it’s a huge, huge issue.”

Cramer agreed it’s a huge issue. He also brought up Jones talking about it earlier in the day and agreed with that, too.

“Yeah. I mean, look, I think Paul Tudor Jones, as always, is right about inflation. It’s much worse than we thought,” he said. “I keep hoping that the capacity will come on and make it so that it’s not as bad, but it just can’t seem to come on as fast enough.”

“For instance, I was going over it with my friend Frank Mitsch, who’s got his own firm, chemicals, and it’s just unbelievable,” he continued. “Fermium is using numbers that are just astounding and it makes you feel like that Procter is not going to be able to get out of a jam, Procter being the one that yesterday focused the most on inflationary inputs.”


........................It's the INflation stupe!.....................

Snowden tells Tribunal: If you love truth, you’re as much of a criminal as Assange and risk sharing his fate
by RT
WikiLeaks publisher Julian Assange is a political prisoner and the process against him is a crime against journalism, said a group of academics, politicians, journalists and advocates convened ahead of his extradition hearing.

“What we’re witnessing is a murder,” NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden told the ‘Belmarsh Tribunal’ in London on Friday, appearing via video link.

“Everywhere we look, from Afghanistan to economics, from pandemic to pervasive surveillance, the obvious has been made unspeakable,” he added, because speaking up would put one in the same category as Assange, a “political criminal”charged for “the transgression of choosing the wrong side.”


https://twitter.com/HorvatSrecko/status/1451586052779651072/photo/1
“Do we have any rights, if we don’t defend them?” Snowden said. “Can we be said to be free if even our power to express ourselves, to understand the facts of our world, can be fenced off from us?”

Anyone who loves the truth is a criminal in the same category as Assange in the eyes of the state, and the only difference is that of degree, Snowden argued, and will share his fate.

If we’re going to free the world, we have to free Assange.

The ‘Belmarsh Tribunal’ set out to turn the tables on Assange’s accusers – the US government, but also the UK that has kept him imprisoned, Sweden for making spurious accusations that drove him to exile in the first place, and Ecuador for revoking his asylum. It was organized by the Progressive International and presided over by Srecko Horvat, the Croatian philosopher who co-founded the European political movement DiEM25 along with former Greek finance minister Yanis Varoufakis, who also spoke on Friday.


Snowden was the final speaker in the proceedings, which lasted over 2.5 hours. Fellow whistleblowers Annie Machon (former MI5 officer) and Daniel Ellsberg (known for leaking the ‘Pentagon Papers’), addressed the tribunal as well. Also among the speakers were four Labour MPs, including former party leader Jeremy Corbyn; two parliamentarians from Germany’s Die Linke; a former Australian Greens senator; former president of Ecuador Rafael Correa; and several distinguished journalists, historians and lawyers.

Speaking of GADGETS, -- here's something you might WANT TO AVOID:

https://nypost.com/2021/10/19/i-fou...nds-of-audio-recordings-from-my-home-gadgets/

I found an Amazon folder with thousands of audio recordings from my home gadgets

By: Charlotte Edwards, The Sun, October 19, 2021

A woman was shocked to discover just how much data Amazon has collected about her.


She posted a viral TikTok video explaining how she requested to see the data but wasn’t expecting to receive so much.


TikToker my.data.not.yours explained: “I requested all the data Amazon has on me and here’s what I found.”


She revealed that she has three Amazon smart speakers.


Two are Amazon Dot speakers and one is an Echo device.


Her home also contains smart bulbs.


She said: “When I downloaded the ZIP file these are all the folders it came with.”


The TikToker then clicked on the audio file and revealed thousands of short voice clips that she claims Amazon has collected from her smart speakers.


She described them as “so scary” and played one of her talking about turning on a light.

There are said to be 3,534 short audio clips in that file alone.


She was also sent a “Contacts” file.

“The very last thing that I didn’t know that they had, I could have assumed that they have but I don’t love that they have, is my location.”


She revealed another file that apparently showed the exact location of her Alexa smart speakers.

...


The social media star often makes videos about data privacy and tech.


She said: “I’m not totally comfortable with everything they have.”


The video has been viewed millions of times.


One shocked viewer wrote: “It’s scary that people with Echo Dots and Alexa’s etc don’t know that Amazon records you and keeps the recordings.”


The TikToker stated: “It turns out they have a full list of my contacts from my phone and I never remember syncing that.”
...


What could possibly go wrong here?

It seems to me that if you threaten to MURDER a SITTING SENATOR and is Family, that you might have some TWO HOURS before either the FBI or the Secret Service shows up at your door with 15 agents armed with FULL AUTOMATIC WEAPONS.

But if that SENATOR is a "Republican", -- well maybe we'll get around to it ...

BREAKING: CNN camera operator arrested for threatening to kill Matt Gaetz and his family

BREAKING: CNN camera operator arrested for threatening to kill Matt Gaetz and his family
by: The Right Scoop, Oct. 26, 2021

Eugene “Gene” Huelsman, a long time camera operator for CNN, ABC, NBC, and others, has been arrested by authorities for threatening to kill Matt Gaetz and his family: ...

What’s amazing about this arrest is that the threat was made to Gaetz all the way back in January with an indictment coming down in May by a federal grand jury. Yet it wasn’t until now that Huelsman was arrested.

Here’s the terrible threat Huelsman left on Gaetz’s office voicemail on January 9th:



eugenehuelsman_mattgaetz-640x312.jpg

I’m glad they finally arrested this liberal thug but what the heck took so long?

By the way, Matt Gaetz posted this video to his Rumble account for everyone to see. He knows you won’t see this on CNN, ABC, NBC, or the other garbage networks
.​
... and:

@[email protected]

Former CNN Employee ARRESTED For Threatening To KILL Matt Gaetz [VIDEOS] - An Emmy-nominated cameraman who previously worked for CNN as well as ABC and NBC was arrested this week for threatening Gaetz

So apparently if you're a "conservative", or someone who supports the Constitution, or a Christian, -- well, you may be on your own.

Lke 22:36 He said to them, “But now, let him who has a purse take it, and likewise a bag. And let him who has no sword sell his mantle and buy one.

This is so creepy and dangerous!
The following article has alot of information, about being unknowingly surveilled, hackers, tv models (but remember models are updated regularly), children alone watching tv, channel changing, and owners changing IP location address and other safety measures.

What Does It Take to Convince You WHERE We Are In Time???
OP ^

Good Post Bobby Jo!

Time we Are in?
* A time to: Yourself, Listen, pay attention.

* Know of the time foretold: that you be prepared.

* The time foretold: shall be terrible AND affect all dwelling upon the Face of the whole earth.

* WATCH-
...some men pay attention to what is occuring during the day.
...a WATCHMAN pays attention to what is occuring during the night; the darkness, the curtained secret, masked, unawares, creeping, inching forth from behind the scenes.

* PREPARATION- to ESCAPE the fate of what all upon the (FACE of the Earth) shall experience.

* PREPARATION- individual "worthiness" to ESCAPE.

THESE TIMES ?? TODAY ??
* men boldly speaking their intents to subdue and control (body & minds) all humans.

* men behind the scenes, secretly plotting, publically bombarding daily, crisis after crisis,
Proudly Proclaiming...24-7
THEY HOLD THE POWER & CONTROL OVER...
fear, death, threats, fear, death, threats...

It's going to get TERRIBLE, on the face of the earth

PAY ATTENTION...daily reports...A TASTE always comes BEFOREHAND..
Fires, earthquakes, rumbling on the sea floor, Oddities in the skys, lands disappearing, peculiar weather...

LEARN the TRUTH ..what was, shall be.
* God Warned and USED the Earth to Destroy mankind.
Gen 6:13..I will destroy them with the Earth.
* ESCAPE ?
Gen 7:10...the ark went upon the FACE OF THE WATERS.
Gen 7:17... Above the Earth.
* Water HOW HIGH?
Gen 7:19 ...high hills...covered
Gen 7:20 ...mountains...covered

*ever been upon mountains...IN the clouds?
;)

Prepared...Rapture ready for any moment!

Luke 21:
[34] And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.
[35] For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.
[36] Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.


Glory to God,
Taken

Dear Taken,

Well, me and mine just might make it through not living in a Major city:

Rev. 18:4 ...
“Come out of her, my people,
lest you take part in her sins,
lest you share in her plagues;

But reading Rev. 20:4-6 (don't return with Jesus) it looks like we're in for the long haul until that ascension at the end of the Thousand (Rev. 21:2). And I DO have mixed emotions for those who are "taken" captive:

Rev. 20:4 ... I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their testimony to Jesus and for the word of God, and who had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. ...

... where they give up a few years of life, but GAIN a THOUSAND:

Rev.20:4 ...They came to life, and reigned with Christ a thousand years. ...
Rev. 20:6 Blessed and holy is he who shares in the first resurrection! Over such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and they shall reign with him a thousand years.


With Very Best Regards,
Bobby Jo & ELAM :rolleyes:
