DAILY BIBLE VERSE

Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.

John 15:13

THE LATEST

1. 11 STATES BAND TOGETHER TO STOP OSHA MANDATE

OSHA’s vaccine mandate doesn’t even take effect until after the holidays in January (and somehow, it’s justified because this is an “emergency”) but Friday, the Attorneys General of 11 states banded together and filed a federal lawsuit to stop it. They call it “unconstitutional, unlawful and unwise.” So pretty much typical of this entire Administration.

Incidentally, not all opponents of the vaccine mandate are Republicans. Meet the Democrat Governor who says it’s not the correct or effective solution for her state.

2. MSM OUTLETS HAVE BECOME VERY QUIET ON THIS ISSUE: 

Liberal media outlets like CNN and MSNBC spent years promoting a narrative about President Trump colluding with Russia. Now that we’re learning via the Durham indictments that it was actually a hoax perpetrated by people who wanted Hillary Clinton to win, those same outlets are being awfully quiet. Not only are they barely covering the recent arrests and revelations, but the host who went the deepest down the rabbit hole in pushing hysterical Russiagate conspiracy theories, MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow, is openly mocking the Durham arrests and still defending the discredited “Russian dossier.”

Maddow said the indictments seem "designed to smear Christopher Steele's intelligence reports as things that were deliberately made up and concocted by rascally Democrats” (wow, she finally blunders into the truth and doesn’t even realize it.) She even invited disgraced former FBI agent Peter Strzok onto the show to push more self-serving horse droppings onto her poor deluded viewers.

It was all too much for former Rolling Stone reporter Matt Taibbi. Hardly a conservative, Taibbi called the credulous promotion of Russiagate a "sizable boil on the face of American journalism" and Maddow’s refusal to admit that and her continuing promotion of it “loony,” a “shocking new low,” and a “bold leap off the credibility cliff.” He wrote, “Whatever the category below 'disgraced journalist' is, she entered it with gusto with last night’s performance."

https://www.foxnews.com/media/matt-taibbi-msnbc-rachel-maddow-durham-probe

Couldn’t agree more, except that before she could even reach the credibility cliff, she’d first have to climb back up out of Gullibility Gorge, and I see no evidence that she’s done that.


3.  WORDS FROM AN ENDANGERED SPECIES: 

One of the few remaining Democratic politicians with common sense (which likely cost her the presidential nomination), Tulsi Gabbard, has some tough advice for fellow Party members who are trying to tear down America, divide us by skin color, open our border and call anyone who objects “racist.” Will they listen? It would be good for them and for America, but it requires common sense to see that, so don’t bet on it.

4. HERE IS WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR

Here’s what you’ve been waiting for since Tuesday’s election: Kurt Schlichter’s take on the beatdown voters delivered to Democrats and the Party’s “double down on stupid” response.

5. TWIN TRAGEDIES:

Friday was a tragic day in the music world. At least eight people are dead and hundreds injured after the crowd at the Astroworld music festival in Houston surged forward when Travis Scott took the stage. People were pushed through barriers and crushed in the sea of bodies. Many people who did escape injury said they couldn’t breathe and feared for their lives.

https://www.foxnews.com/us/houston-astroworld-attendees-describe-horror

This is eerily reminiscent of the tragedy in 1979 when 11 people were killed at a Who concert in Cincinnati when the crowd surged toward the doors.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Who_concert_disaster

Afterward, the city banned festival seating (with no assigned seats) for 25 years. It sounds as if that tragedy has receded enough in time that concert organizers are now repeating the same mistakes that led to it.

Also, our prayers today for the five victims of a plane crash near Rio de Janeiro. Those killed included 26-year-old pop star and Latin Grammy winner Marília Mendonça. She was on her way to a concert when the plane crashed shortly before arrival. She leaves behind a son who will turn two next month. This adds another name to the tragic list of performers killed in small plane crashes that ranges from Patsy Cline and Buddy Holly to Stevie Ray Vaughn and Lynyrd Skynyrd.

6. SOLOMON: DURHAM'S INDICTMENTS SHOW HILLARY "WAS IN UP TO HER NECK": 

That’s what investigative reporter John Solomon told FOX NEWS’ Maria Bartiromo on this week’s “Sunday Morning Futures.”

In fact, if you saw our reports last week about new developments in the Special Counsel investigation, Bartiromo’s interviews with both Solomon and former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe will serve as a great summary and follow-up. (And if you didn’t see them, these interviews will help catch you up.) Here’s the link to that episode; Bartiromo’s coverage of the Durham probe starts about 17 minutes in.

https://www.fox.com/watch/1d8b670ef3da2a619b2f20ee00351f82/

Solomon, who told Maria the Danchenko indictment shows the Trump-Russia investigation was built on “lie upon lie upon lie,” has a new report at JUST THE NEWS in which he shifts to Durham’s look at top FBI officials.

https://justthenews.com/accountability/russia-and-ukraine-scandals/biggest-loser-durham-indictments-james-comeys-fbi

According to Solomon, Durham has two “buckets” of evidence he’s assembling, one implicating the Clinton campaign and the other involving top intel personnel and their willingness to mislead with falsified evidence in their pursuit of Trump. He told Bartiromo that “many other [intel] people are being examined at this moment.”

“There’s no doubt there’s activity inside the grand jury right now,” he said, “aimed at looking at top level officials at the FBI.” Red flags were raised on the Steele “dossier” as early as August of 2016 but were obviously set aside. A month later, the CIA tied it to the Clinton campaign, but sent their report on this to...Peter Strzok. The FBI even had a spreadsheet indicating all the dossier’s impossible or uncorroborated claims.

Solomon says the latest criminal indictment, that of Christopher Steele’s primary sub-source Igor Danchenko --- alleged to have made false statements five times to the FBI --- is just as much an indictment of the FBI as it is of him. The FBI should have seen the serious flaws in the “dossier” even though Danchenko didn’t tell them about getting the material from Clinton ally Charles Dolan.

Incidentally, Dolan wasn’t Danchenko’s only named sub-source. One of the others, “Sub-source #4,” Alexey Sergeyevich Dundich, claims Danchenko “framed” him as a sub-source “to add credibility to his low-quality work.”

“My impression is that Mr. Danchenko fabricated the information published in the Dossier to make quick money,” he declared. “It is apparent to me that the Dossier is a deliberate fraud and a collection of idle rumors.”

But if the “dossier” was so obviously bogus, why didn’t then-FBI Director James Comey, deputy Director Andrew McCabe and lead “Crossfire Hurricane” investigator Peter Strzok dismiss it as such? They clearly knew it was a hoax. As retired FBI intelligence chief Kevin Brock says, “The fact pattern that John Durham is methodically establishing shows what James Comey and Andrew McCabe likely knew from Day One, that the Steele ‘dossier’ was politically-driven nonsense at the behest of the Clinton campaign. “And yet they knowingly ran with its false information to obtain legal process against an American citizen. They defrauded not just a federal court, they defrauded the FBI and the American people.”

He went on to say that this has destroyed trust in the FBI. “As Comey cashes his royalty checks from a book and a movie, where do everyday, working FBI agents go to get the Bureau’s reputation back? The damage done by Comey, McCabe and others to the trust that Americans have traditionally placed in the FBI is incalculable.”

Indeed, as the depth of this deceit becomes increasingly evident, there will no doubt be calls to dismantle the FBI and completely start over. I would say the person most qualified –- and motivated –- to restructure the intel bureaucracy might be none other than Mike Flynn. Now THAT would be justice.

I would also add that, in exploiting this fakery after Trump became President, it was THEY at the Justice Department –- as opposed to Trump supporters –- who were involved in a coup, ultimately engineered by Hillary Clinton and her allies. I hope this is where Durham is headed.

One defense the FBI will likely try, to defend itself against charges of corruption, is that this happened because of incompetent people at the top, but that doesn’t wash. As Solomon points out, one FBI official, Kevin Clinesmith, has already admitted doctoring a piece of evidence that was used to get the Carter Page warrant. And these people are highly skilled at protecting themselves legally. Recall that Comey even gave up his security clearance so he wouldn’t be able to testify about classified matters. Not so incompetent when it comes to covering his backside.

Former chairman of the House Intelligence Committee Devin Nunes has known about the Clinton connection for years now. “We already knew the Steele ‘dossier’ was orchestrated and funded by the Democrats, and now we know that a Democrat operative, who’d been a registered Russian agent and was closely linked to Kremlin officials, served as a direct source for the dossier’s fabrications, he told JUST THE NEWS in a reference to Charles Dolan. “As I’ve said for years, the only people who colluded with Russians were the Democrats.”

https://freebeacon.com/national-security/clinton-operative-linked-to-steele-dossier-did-not-disclose-work-for-russia-to-justice-department/

As for Peter Strzok, he went on MSNBC Thursday and actually denied to Rachel Maddow that there was ever an FBI investigation of the Trump campaign, which is a blatant lie. (I assume he’d justify this statement by saying Carter Page was no longer with the Trump campaign when they got the warrant against him; this is a dodge that is easily dismantled.) He said that what “certain far-right commentators” are saying about that is “nonsense.”

Solomon just smiled and shook his head at this, saying that Strzok’s own original statement that started the “Crossfire Hurricane” investigation was that they were “looking at whether individuals associated with the Trump campaign were coordinating or conspiring with Russia.” The Trump campaign was mentioned a dozen times in the first FISA application, submitted in October of 2016 at the height of the campaign.

“He was lying the other night,” Solomon said. “There’s no other way to say it politely.”

Sara Carter, in an appearance this weekend on Steve Hilton’s FOX NEWS show THE NEXT REVOLUTION, brought up a couple of interesting facts we didn’t know about Fiona Hill, a star witness in Trump Impeachment #1. Not only did she introduce Igor Danchenko to Christopher Steele, but she also introduced Clinton crony Charles Dolan to Danchenko. All of these connections appear to center around the solidly anti-Trump “think-tank” the Brookings Institution, headed by big-time Clinton ally Strobe Talbott. Also, Hill was working closely at the time with H. R. McMaster, the person who replaced Michael Flynn as Trump’s new national security adviser after the FBI set Flynn up and destroyed his career. It seems that practically every day, there’s another puzzle piece or two to put in place.


7.  MESSAGE FOR FELLOW NOSE-PICKERS: IT IS OUR FAULT

Hey, fellow ignoramuses! What would we do without liberals to explain to us dumb nose-pickers that all the things we’re upset about either don’t really exist or are actually good for us?

For instance, the crush of illegal immigrants just shows that things are so great under Biden that everyone wants to move here! It’s a compliment!...Skyrocketing inflation? It’s that great Biden economy that has people so raring to spend money that suppliers can’t keep up!...Gas doubling in price? That’s all OPEC’s fault; you just don’t understand how the global oil market works...Critical Race Theory? Why, that doesn’t even exist! But if you criticize it, you’re a racist.

And now the latest from President Biden: Americans who want to know why the cost of food is rising so fast just don’t understand the supply chain, so the media needs to do a better job of explaining it to them.

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/11/07/joe-biden-appears-to-sneer-at-americans-intelligence-questions-collective-ability-to-understand-supply-chain-issues/

Granted, I’m just a poor hick who don’t have no brain power to cotton to all them hard words and stuff that DC savants like Joe Biden spew. But it seems to me that if you don’t want supply chain disruptions and rising prices, maybe you should stop doing everything possible to disrupt the supply. You know, like maybe NOT shutting down another oil pipeline just as winter is approaching. Like an idiot would do.

in this glad hour.

Thou who almighty art,

now rule in ev'ry heart,

and ne'er from us depart,

Spirit of power.

4 To the great One in Three

eternal praises be,

hence evermore.

His sov'reign majesty

may we in glory see,

and to eternity

love and adore.

    Did I mention that for the first time in my 67 years of living in this country I am scared shitless of Biden & his thugs. I am living in a city (New Orleans, LA) under a mayor that has issued vaccine mandates for all businesses in Orleans Parish! A resident here cannot enjoy restaurants, etc unless you have proof of being vaccinated! My granddaughter was denied access to a bathroom at City Park because I wasn't vaccinated! Can you feel my anger here? Being the grandmother I am, I told the door guard that it would be a cold day in hell before I watched my granddaughter barred from using a bathroom & I pushed right past him & took my granddaughter to their bathroom! FYI this has been for years & years an open bathroom for restaurant customers & City Park attendees. As we began our departure from the building I was met at the front door by (I'm assuming) the manager who actually thought he was going to be successful in scolding me. Unfortunately for him I'm not the type of person to take disrespect from a 30 something man & that's all I will say about that except I don't think this young man will confront another grandmother anytime soon. Biden is destroying this country! Poor & lower income families are in very precarious situations unable to pay bills or buy food & clothing because of inflation. My daughter, who walked away from a 13 year abusive marriage/relationship is now thru her own hard work a very successful paralegal & just as she is celebrating & enjoying an unbelievably great career & the subsequent income from it is being slammed with this out of control inflation! It's like she took 2 huge steps up only to have Biden & his policies knocking the wind out of what she's accomplished! I cannot even imagine the anxiety, the fear, the total discouragement people are feeling & dealing with. We are wondering just how much this administration is going to steal from us! It's heartbreaking & demoralizing to see everything you've built, the struggles, the battles, the sacrifices all being destroyed by Biden & his thugs! I'm sick of the lies, the bullying, the blatant disregard for the law & our constitutional rights!

    From a fellow nose-picker re: President Houseplant and his wonderful policies - I couldn't have said it better myself. The socialists have an answer for everything (i.e., you're wrong if you disagree) except how to solve the numerous problems they created on day 1 when they summarily trashed all Trump-related issues no matter the detriment to the country. For any true believer, that proved Dementia Joe was just the guy to bring the country back to normal. The fact those same deluded voters are now paying sky-high prices on groceries and gas just like us ignorant hicks does make me laugh. Love your newsletter. Keep up the good work.

    The latest round of subpoenas from the 1/6 committee opens a golden opportunity to set the record straight. Those who were closest to President Trump in those final months can now come to the 1/6 committee and tell, under oath, the true story to the nation.

    We live in the greatest country in the world, but one thing I do not understand, how are corrupt people like Hilary

    As I marvel at Democratic run Urban areas the Mayors, City Counsels watch as murder takes place the stores are robbed of its merchandise the stolen cars, beatings and rape on their streets the human and animal waste products along with used syringes on the sidewalks and the cries for defund the police are all cheered on by our occupants in the oval office and its collection of communist run Federal offices the Oval Office now wants to make energy so expensive homes, stores may go without enough heat this winter to keep the water pipes from freezing all this and the leaders of the Federal offices laugh at the coming emergency just like the leaving of Americans behind in a brutal country the Democrat what can one admire about it? If you are a Pagan everything. Decency is being destroyed by the Democrat lawlessness is its motto. As long as the Devil is with us we will always have Democrats.

    Since we are doing hymn lyrics, I was playing hymns this evening - they are the most beautiful, Holy-Spirit filled, godly things ever written - This classic was opposite "Have Thine Own Way" which I was playing - I cannot help but share - O Lord but that we would follow EVERY WORD in these beautiful, exhorting instructions:
    ___________
    Take Time To Be Holy

    Take time to be holy, speak oft with thy Lord;
    Abide in Him always, and feed on His Word.
    Make friends of God’s children, help those who are weak,
    Forgetting in nothing His blessing to seek.

    Take time to be holy, the world rushes on;
    Spend much time in secret, with Jesus alone.
    By looking to Jesus, like Him thou shalt be;
    Thy friends in thy conduct His likeness shall see.

    Take time to be holy, let Him be thy Guide;
    And run not before Him, whatever betide.
    In joy or in sorrow, still follow the Lord,
    And, looking to Jesus, still trust in His Word.

    Take time to be holy, be calm in thy soul,
    Each thought and each motive beneath His control.
    Thus led by His Spirit to fountains of love,
    Thou soon shalt be fitted for service above.

    Governor Huckabee, I am a faithful reader and follower who would like someone to address this current topic: DOJ working on reimbursements to illegal immigrant families.
    With a proposed number floating around $425,000 per family what % or portion of that is reimbursement to legal representatives acting for these families?
    Thank you.

    Sorry to be nit-picky here, but Lynyrd Skynyrd did not die in a plane crash. Three members of the Lynyrd Skynyrd band died in the crash, including Ronnie Van Zant, but the entire band did not die.

    I do love your newsletter and look forward to reading it 2x per day!

    The Biden agenda is on schedule for dooms day for America with the Deep State getting biden into the Oval Office. I believe millions of citizens like myself knew it was a matter of time when Trumps agenda and policies were dismantled that we now have Biden's World . Only 10 months with biden using the power of the Oval Office has disgraced the Oath of Office the DOJ has it's brain cell corroded to the point of a zombie like existence as the rest of the biden collection all have been injected with the same numbing formula biden is kept in his chamber for 22 hours of the day when awaken he is pumped more mind altering drug where he comes out and acts like mad chimpanzee screaming like some one has taken his bunch of bananas . Trump created a great America and it takes a nitwit and the power of the Oval Office to dismantle it and with taxpayer money we don't have Our only hope is China keeps lending us money never to be paid back. I can only hope people get off the biden drug I think it might be happening the 12 steps of biden is in progress break the CHAINS of biden and its collection of numb skulls.
