Political discorse

He starts speaking at 50:00

https://www.youtube.com/live/9kPNOrw...vTXuHMYkNifrDz

**

RFK Jr. stated that he left the Democratic Party because it had departed from its core values, including:

1. *Censorship*: He criticized the party for censoring political speech and colluding with media companies to silence opposing views.
2. *War and militarism*: He opposed the party's support for the war in Ukraine and its failure to pursue peaceful solutions.
3. *Corruption and big money influence*: He accused the party of being controlled by corporate interests and failing to address issues like chronic disease and environmental degradation.
4. *Lack of transparency and democracy*: He criticized the party's handling of the primary process, including the cancellation of debates and the appointment of a new candidate without an election.
5. *Abandonment of civil rights and liberties*: He felt the party had abandoned its commitment to protecting civil rights and liberties, such as free speech and freedom of expression.

RFK Jr. also expressed concerns about the party's:

1. *Censorship-industrial complex*: He believed the party was working with government agencies and media outlets to censor opposing views and silence dissenting voices.
2. *Media control*: He accused the party of colluding with mainstream media to shape public opinion and suppress alternative perspectives.

By leaving the Democratic Party and endorsing Donald Trump, RFK Jr. aimed to bring attention to these issues and promote a more independent and nuanced approach to politics.

Entertaining to say the least!

Has anyone heard this claim that migrants are eating dogs and cats?

I fact checked it, it's true:

There have been some reported cases and allegations of immigrants eating pets, particularly dogs, in various parts of the world. However, it's essential to note that these cases are relatively rare and often associated with cultural or survival practices rather than malicious intent.

Some reported cases include:

1. In 2018, a Brazilian immigrant was arrested in Florida for slaughtering and cooking a neighbor's dog.
2. In 2019, a Mexican national was accused of killing and eating a dog in California.
3. In some African and Asian cultures, dog meat is considered a traditional food source, leading to instances of dog consumption among immigrant communities.

Re: Political discorse

Kamala denied late term abortion:

No states explicitly allow the termination of a fetus at birth. However, some states have laws or court decisions that may be interpreted to allow for late-term abortions or even post-birth decisions in extreme circumstances, such as:

1. New York: The Reproductive Health Act (2019) allows abortions up to birth if a healthcare professional deems the mother's health or life is at risk.
2. Virginia: A 2020 bill proposed allowing abortions up to birth, but it was met with controversy and ultimately did not pass.
3. Illinois: The Reproductive Health Act (2019) allows abortions up to birth if a healthcare professional deems the mother's health or life is at risk.

It's essential to note that these laws and interpretations are subject to ongoing debate, legal challenges, and changes in legislation.

Regarding post-birth decisions, there have been controversies and debates surrounding cases where babies are born alive after attempted abortions, and medical decisions are made about their care. However, these situations are extremely rare and often involve complex medical and ethical considerations.

In general, laws and medical practices prioritize the life and health of both the mother and the baby, and decisions about termination or medical intervention are typically made with careful consideration and within established legal and ethical frameworks.

Re: Political discorse

Honestly, neither one did very well on explaining their platform to the American people. If you judge the debate on how the candidates conducted themselves alone, Kamala won the debate. Her training as a prosecutor was evident. Trump seemed flustered by her at times.

To be fair Trump is debating three people in that of Harris, and the two moderators. I watched it last night with my son who needed it for his civic studies, and when I went to bed, I told my wife, I just wasted and hour and a half of my life.

I could understand that trump is trying to state the migrant issue, the abortion claim, and utter lies of January 6, and let's not forget about the lies of Covid. It's funny how Kamala sure changed her tune on Covid and was very boldly claiming it was from China, when before Trump said it, he was a racist.

That debate, the easy way Kamala is now the democratic nominee, should be fireworks in someones mind how rigged this government is. The foundation of this country was built for failure, and it sure is doing that job.

I don't watch the news, so I didn't hear anything, and obviously didn't see anything about migrants eating household pet.

However, when you said it was true I looked it up. And sure enough some town in Ohio just had a council meeting and the residents came out in full force. Telling about how they're seeing these migrants gutting animals in the park, hanging cats to eat, residents have reported loosing their dogs and cats and fear its the migrants that are eating them.

Yet, the moderators said there wasn't any official word. And acted like Trump was off his rocker.

The moderators continued to go against Trump. Not once did they do that to Kamala.

The thing in this world they want us to believe is that we have a choice. We get to vote, and be the man or woman of the people as leader. That is a pie in the sky dream. We honestly believe it is musical chairs, but Kamala is still in the chair. The donors are the ones who run this country. You have a man who is in sever demented state sitting on a beach. In this country he is supposed to be the acting president. In all political logic Kamala should be the acting president. Due to the current president's mental breakdown. But that isn't in their plans. The country you and I grew up in is gone. Not that they weren't playing these games back then. They were just careful to give us cheap energy and hot pizza.

They don't want Donald for a second term. They know how to kill who they want to kill. The shot at Donald Trump was just over his bow. They wanted to make sure he no longer has a failure to communicate with them. Everyone and their cousin can see what's being played out before us. This country is being made in their image. But with all this being said, the Bible states we get the leadership we deserve.

Daniel 2:21-22

And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding: He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.


Daniel 4:17

This matter is by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men.

All we are instructed to do is pray for these horrible leaders we get. Because after all, we aren't a nation of God fearing sweet hearts. 1 Timothy 2:1-2 We pray for those who are good as well as those who are savages. We pray for political leaders to leave us alone. Ephesians 6:12 explains to us that we aren't fighting against mortal man. But we are in a fight against demonic principalities. Good thing is that we have the power and authority over them.
We just need to continue converting people over to the Body of Christ.
