Day by day, our nation sinks a little more.
We’re taking on water, and our bilge pump is broken. Instead of everyone working together to bail out the ship. Our leaders fight over how we should do it. So, we sink, sink, sink. If we cannot unite soon, we’re going straight to the bottom, and we’ll all be destroyed.
This is what I am talking about…
Biden Escalates
In recent days, Joe Biden did what Joe Biden does best.
Divide America. Then again, the other guy did a great job of that as well.
While talking about the Second Amendment, Biden said,
“And for those brave right-wing Americans who say it’s all about keeping Americans independent and safe, you want to fight against the country? You need an F-15, you need something a little more than a gun.”
Good job Joe, keep dividing America. pic.twitter.com/slaulqcRoc

Who said anything about fighting against our country?
Americans don’t need F-15s to put a noose around the neck of criminals, do we?
Just days later, President Joe Biden ratcheted up the rhetoric machine saying;
- “What we’re seeing now is the beginning or the death knell of an extreme MAGA philosophy. It’s not just Trump, it’s the entire philosophy that underpins the — I’m going to say something, it’s like semi-fascism.”
- “Too much of what’s happening in our country today is not normal. Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans represent extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic.”
- “Equality and democracy are under assault” they “are determined to take this country backwards. Backwards to an America where there is no right to choose, no right to privacy, no right to contraception, no right to marry who you love.”
We’re now at a point in American history where the President calls the opposition party, and their American supporters, the enemy. It’s no secret, America is already divided, this just made it worse, a lot worse.
In Joe Biden’s world…
- Two men sucking face is normal
- COVID-19 lockdowns are not fascist
- Forced vaccinations are not fascist
- Forcing Americans to pay for someone else’s college loan is not fascist
- Calling whites extremists and domestic terrorists is not fascist
Got it!
Look at this next quote.
“MAGA Republicans have made their choice. They embrace anger. They thrive on chaos. They live not in the light of truth but in the shadow of lies.
For a long time, we’ve reassured ourselves that American democracy is guaranteed. But it is not. We have to defend it. Protect it. Stand up for it. Each and every one of us.”
NBC
What the heck does that even mean?
Are we supposed to start fighting each other now?
Red verse Blue?
This is insanity.
Oddly enough, ahead of the speech, a senior Biden official said, it’s “not a speech about a particular politician, or even about a particular political party.”
Boy, did they get bad intel!
The only thing I could agree with Biden on was this bit.
“Democracy cannot survive when one side believes there are only two outcomes to an election: either they win, or they were cheated,” Biden said. “And that’s where the MAGA Republicans are today.”
Yep.
It’s a bit hypocritical to say the elections are rigged, then celebrate when you win. Kari Lake comes to mind.
That brings us too…
The Trump Show
Show or fiasco, take your pick.
The latest drama involves a bunch of documents Trump had at his home in Florida. Did he take them when he shouldn’t have, that’s the question. Perhaps we’ll find out soon enough. Nevertheless, the timing reeks of another political attack.
I mean, the elections are right around the corner.
The problem with Trump, he can never handle things like a mature adult. In response to these attacks, here’s what he had to say.
There it is…
- “Declare the rightful winner, or hold a new Election, NOW!”
- “Declare the rightful winner or, and this would be the minimal solution, declare the 2020 Election irreparably compromised and have a new Election, immediately!”
Folks, we’re almost two years into the Biden Presidency now. There is no flipping the election like so many nuts kept saying was going to happen. I keep hearing about all this proof, but not a shred of evidence has been proven in a court of law.
I know, they’re all in on it.
Now, the right is stirred up, and they have some answers…
Conservative Answers
So I caught an article from a popular conservative website the other day.
The article went on to discuss the latest drama; the Trump saga, Republicans verse Democrats, civil war, etc. You know, the same BS. They even roped in China and Muslims for extra measure.
That led to the big pitch, the author asked,
“Does 2020-2024 mark the death of American culture?”
A long story short, the author pitched the idea of essentially, creating two Americas. To create conservative institutions, governments, medical systems, money, even separate sports teams. I couldn’t believe it.
You know what first came to mind?
Dude, we can’t even boycott the flippin’ Target over their tranny bathroom policy. We can’t even unite to stop using Facebook. We can’t stop watching the NFL and NBA, but we’re going to build two America’s?
Ahh haha, that’s a good one.
By the way, thoughts like this are how the civil war happened, and why Lincoln stopped it from happening. All we need to do is strengthen red states. The power resides in your wallet. Shop local, and keep the money in the pockets of those who hold your values.
Now, let’s look at the real issues and the things that need to change.
NATO Expansion
Our Republican and Democrat leaders love to pit us against each other, but they really belong to the same club. That is, to a very large degree. Take for example, the latest expansion of NATO. Just one month ago, Republican and Democrat Senators agreed 95-1 to expand NATO.
95-1!
Hey, there’s only 100 Senators, and 50 of them are Republican. So here’s the list of everyone who voted for more NATO. Josh Hawley rebelled against it, Rand Paul voted “Present,” and three other Republicans didn’t show.
Outside of them, the rest of the Republicans voted for more NATO.
All the while, these slick talkers tell you they are all about America. Saving and protecting our nation. That’s all horse ….! Your Democrat and Republican representatives have sent billions to Ukraine to keep the war going.
Now, they expand NATO some more, and who primarily funds NATO?
WE DO!
So when you hear conservative talking heads say we need to stop the “RINOs”…
It’s all horse ….!
Study and news with a fresh Christian perspective in your inbox.
Both parties are like wolf in sheep’s clothing, save a few, and I mean a FEW! The conservative talkers and ring leaders who shout RINO are RINO’s themselves.
You doubt it, do you?
Pray tell, which President of these United States ever pulled the United States out of NATO or the UN?
Hmmm?
I’ll wait.
The Facts
To the citizens of this divided nation, here are the cold hard facts.
No political party or President has ever helped you out. Just relax, I know you’re already fired up by that. Let’s just look at some facts and then you can fix your own cognitive dissonance later. There’s a very good reason why I am pointing out everything below.
The Deficit
This graphic shows the yearly Federal Government deficit.
Pray tell, which President brought down the deficit?
We all know what Obama did, but look at the uptick in the deficit from 2017 through 2020.
Who was the President during that time?
Let’s look at this from another angle. This is how our national debt has faired over the years.
Which U.S. President ever reduced our debt?
Not-a-one, but some took credit for inflating the economy which gave us record stock market prices and record housing prices. All of which, is leading to another economic collapse.
How much did you benefit from that?
The Taxes
Now let’s take a look at taxes.
Which President helped you out?
Please show me where that took place?
All I see are taxes that continually climb.
The Illegals
Now, let’s take a look at illegal immigration.
The above chart doesn’t give us totals, but I wanted you to have the data for 2012.
Which President allowed record illegal immigration in 2019?
Now, President Joe Biden has eclipsed those numbers, big time!
So there you have it.
Which President ever stopped illegal immigration?
Not-a-one.
Conclusion
If you can set aside political partisanship, the facts are the facts.
It’s very clear, year after year,
- America pays more taxes
- America is in more debt
- America brings in more illegals
- America expands global bodies (NATO, UN)
How can anyone deny these simple and obvious facts?
While the conservative article I read stated,
“America is facing its most serious national crisis since the Civil War, and it is not helpful to pretend otherwise.”
Biden says,
“Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic. As I stand here tonight, equality and democracy are under assault. We do ourselves no favor to pretend otherwise.”
Each political faction is poking a stick in your eye.
They’re playing you.
They’re trying to rile you up.
They keep talking about civil war and how we need to protect “democracy”.
It’s all hogwash!
Each faction is painting the other guy as the enemy who must be defeated. This keeps each and every one of us stuck in a political silo. Then, we cannot use our own mind to consider facts, we simply have the facts spoon fed to us.
To all the nut jobs on the left and right that keep talking about civil war…
If you think I’m catching a bullet for Biden or Trump, you’ve completely lost your mind. You go take the first bullet, I’m going to enjoy the sun with my family. There’s fish that need to be caught and mountains that need to be conqoured.
To this day, I still cannot understand how people fall for political horse business. When I was a political novice back in the Ron Paul years, I discovered politics were highly corrupt and the voting system was rigged.
I explained it for years, now one wanted to listen. Now, suddenly everyone knows it’s all rigged, but they want me to catch a bullet for Biden or Trump?
They must be off their rocker.
The fact of the matter is, they only know it now because certain somebodies keep pounding it into their head. Unfortunately, people tend to be sheepish and follow the herd, well, not this guy.
Too many Christians keep thinking X person is going to save us.
Get it through your thick head…
Only God can save us. Only God can save this country and He will only do that if we turn back to Him. No man or woman is going to save your bacon. It will take national resolve, it will take national repentance.
I only have one question left…
Do you believe God, or do you believe man?
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
2 Chronicles 7:14
