Trump scans the news all day....(so do I)....when he is not golfing that is....(remember a few months ago when he lambasted Biden for being on the beach?) No one in his administration makes any major moves....for instance Rubio suspending South Sudan visas....without Trump telling them to do it. This is how a dictator or a cult leader operates. I spent many years researching cults....and this cult handbook stuff.
Bullying....psychologists have a lot to say about bullying....the effects on students....why the bullies do it....and how they tend to do it....intentionally and repeatedly. It doesn't have to be physical....it can be threats only....and the stress can lead to serious mental problems in those being bullied....including making life miserable. Why do these perpetrators do things like this? It can upset whole school systems....and there is a high school in Ohio right now making news....and the parents are fighting back. There's a lot of theories on all of this. I haven't read any but I'm sure that there are some theories out there concerning why Trump acts like he does....which is essentially being a bully....who enjoys causing pain and discomfort in others. The bigger problem here is that this is more than a local school system....but an entire country....now expanding into the whole world. The Republican Party is the school board that chooses to do nothing about the bullying in the school.
Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu today announced that he....Israel....was eliminating all tariffs with the United States. He says that it is because of the special relationship Israel has with the United States....but in reality....Trump would have sent someone to tell him to do this. First of all....Israel in the Old Testament was never to depend on Egypt for anything. Netanyahu is one of the many who have been taken in by Trump. He thinks that it is good that Trump wants Israel as a special ally....but is oblivious to the fact that to Trump....allies are always a transactional deal....subject to aborting at any time. Bibi has made one mistake after another because he did not have enough faith in God to keep Trump at a distance. Trump doesn't have an ounce of concern or interest in Israel. They are just a piece on the chessboard....and right now he needs that piece. He might....defend it....if it continues to benefit him....or he might sacrifice the piece for some other end game. What a way to live Bibi.
LET's CHAT....Fifty-five years ago I was in the army with a top secret clearance....and worked in a compound. Nothing came out of that compound. If you blew your nose into a tissue....that tissue went into a burn bag. I moved my Let's Chat post over to my humor page.
February 13....It was reported an hour ago that the aircraft carrier Harry S. Truman was involved in a collision near Port Said, Egypt. We know there were no injuries....and no major damage. What we need to know is whether the carrier will need repairs....and for how long will it be out of commision....if at all....and we need that information now. Who owned this other ship...and how did the collision occur?
February 3....Trump is indeed moving at warp speed so to speak. What he does is hit you with one thing right after another.....including trolling....in amongst these things are legitimate moves....but played in a staccato rhythm....rat tat tat....the result being that we are at one moment outraged....and before we can catch our breath there is another event,,,,that might actually be legitimate....thus temporarily assuaging the outrage. It's a form of a con game....and very effective. What is amazing is that people....or countries if those people represent countries....seem to fall back at his voice....or his threats. Whether this is temporary or not we shall see.
Trump's money-making Gaza scheme is very close to ethnic cleansing. Panama does not have to be reacquired in order to insure the flow of traffic through the canal. Greenland is a member of NATO....and that should give it the same protection we would give it....but we are anti-NATO aren't we? Canada as another state is ridiculous.
We are witnessing what may be the complete collapse of American society. An election win does not mitigate that statement. In this case it amplifies it. There are stages in the collapse....beginning maybe sixty-two years ago with JFK in Dallas. America's youth in the 60s....I was one of them....were sold up the river. They found out that we had disposable income. 1992 was an important stage when Americans fell under the alure of the Clintons. 2021....January....the 6th to be exact....was a killer....in fact all of 2020 was the first water falls that we went over. Joe Biden was breathtakingly deplorable. At the end he looked like he was going to keel over any minute...but the biggest problem with Biden was that he played right into the hands of Donald Trump. Other Republican candidates never had a chance.
On Immigration....It is one thing working quickly to send gang members and genuine undesirables back across the border....but it is an entirely different matter when you are raiding Mexican Restaurants. I for one am not for sending any man back who came here with his family....seeking employment.....to be able to provide better for them. Brethren....are you aware of God's warning on how we are to have compassion in treating the alien within our midst?
January 25.....Why is it that whistleblowers on our side are always great people....while whistleblowers on the other side are always evil people? And why is it that inspectors general watching over the other side are always great....while inspectors general watching over us are always corrupt.
January 13.....Blood Moons....I am one of those who think that God gives signs in the sun and moon and stars. Some....many....can laugh at that but I've done my homework on it.....can those laughing make the same statement? Anyway....the next total lunar blood moon is March 14....falling on Purim. Do you know what Purim is? Every Christian should at least be familiar with the Jewish feast and solemn days. CBN has a small article out right now on blood moons....and as all these articles do they give information of past tetrads....but they never....and I mean never....mention that Donald Trump was born on a blood moon. So if they would be consistent....would they say that that blood moon birth signified something great happening....or possibly....something else?
