Just announced!!
Maybe Trump is getting tired of being surrounded by Obama’s liberal Generals? Next get rid of Mattis at Defense where he has not lifted a finger to remove any of the left wing social experiments put in by Obama and his military hating henchmen
To avoid confusion: McMaster needed Senate confirmation in relation to National Security Adviser because of military rank. Bolton does not.
Here’s an edited excerpt from an article penned by Ann Barnardt in 2011 ...
“Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar’s” is NOT a release from the First Commandment. But, I hear fools reply, “Jesus will not hold us responsible for abortion because we HAVE to pay taxes, and we have absolutely no choice in the matter.”
BULLCRAP!
We will be held to account for subsidizing the holocaust of the preborn. This country is being brought down as punishment for that genocide, and for which every one of us is partially responsible. Those who say otherwise have been brainwashed into believing that the IRS is the most powerful entity in the universe, and that being condemned by the IRS is the worst most permanent fate in the universe. In other words, THEY WORSHIP THE IRS ABOVE GOD. THEY FEAR THE IRS, BUT HAVE NOT THE SLIGHTEST FEAR OF GOD, HIS JUDGEMENT OR HIS WRATH. And they call themselves Christian?
Here is paragraph 2242 of the Catechism of the Catholic Church, which specifically cites the Tribute episode as the ratification of civil disobedience:
“The citizen is obliged in conscience not to follow the directives of civil authorities when they are contrary to the demands of the moral order, to the fundamental rights of persons or the teachings of the Gospel. Refusing obedience to civil authorities, when their demands are contrary to those of an upright conscience, finds its justification in the distinction between serving God and serving the political community.”
“Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.”
“We must obey God rather than men.” - CCC 2242
People are responsible for their government, We The People of the United States of America have perhaps the most personal responsibility for our government, more than any other nation in history. We are a representative republic founded upon a foundation of Christian law and philosophy – one of better set-ups in human history, and therefore bestowed the most responsibility upon its people for the government itself. When your constitution literally opens with the words, “WE THE PEOPLE,” it is beyond the pale to try to argue that “the people” bear no responsibility for the government.
We are also the most culpable nation in history because we are an armed nation. The people of North Korea, disarmed decades ago, bear less responsibility – but they are still responsible. If the people of North Korea, disarmed and half starved, are responsible for their government, how much more are We The People, armed and fed, responsible for the abomination that is our government? The concept of citizen culpability for governance is why it was morally licit to firebomb Dresden, Tokyo and finally drop atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The civilians of Japan permitted and cooperated with their government in its wars of aggression during WWII. The same goes for the German people. They could and should have put down their respective governments – but they did not, and paid a high price.
The same dynamic applies to us. We let this happen. We sat complacent, impotent and self-absorbed, coveting personal wealth and possessions above all else. And now that there is no denying or escaping our duty to God and neighbor, we concoct fictions about the omnipotence of the IRS, in order to convince ourselves that we aren’t to blame, and that we have no higher duty. Because we refuse to act to correct our lawless government, via the most effective, non-violent method – a tax strike – we are guaranteeing hot war, bloodshed and catastrophic suffering.
Every Christian clergyman should have called for a national tax strike on Sunday, January 28, 1973 – the Sunday after SCOTUS legalized the murder of preborn children. Because of that first moral failure, here we now sit, and it is no one’s fault but our own. Most of you apparently have the capacity for delusion that allows you to convince yourself that you will not be made to answer for any of this, but I do not, and for that I can only say, Thanks be to God.
Great choice! I have always admired this man for his wisdom and knowledge, and his deep devotion to the USA!
It is not easy to build a top notch team. Go Trump! He is the right man for the job!
President Trump has hired Victoria Toensing to be on his legal team!!!! Joe DiGenova's Wife!
Take that Deep State!
Maybe Bolton learned from his mistakes. Though there’s nothing in his work history that would indicate that. If he supports the globalist agenda, it’s “meet the new boss, same as the old boss”.
xlnt explanation
“the ones who have never done anything against us”
Surely you jest.
The Taliban? Palestinian Terrorists? Al Qaeda here there and everywhere? ISIS? Muslim Brotherhood? Virtually everyone in Somalia?
Yes, the terrorists and muslim supremacists swim in a pool of people who largely support their goal of world conquest, but don’t themselves commit the heinous acts. But every poll shows: Most want YOU DEAD.
good news
Terrific Another great patriot! We can see by all the newbies here that someone’s got their panties in a wad! Wonder how much Deep State pays the little trolls who are locked in ValJar’s basement?
What were the countries of origin of the 9/11 terrorists?
You just may want to rethink your post before someone points out the stupidity of it.
Gift cards for: Starbucks, Uber, Spotify, and LuLu Lemon...
Spot on.
He tried to be a *neverTrumper, in the beginning ( which tells us a lot about his poor judgement), until he finally figured out Trump came with his own set.
Trump is a decent and loving man, but smart and tough. Bolton is so hawkish he comes with unkempt feathers, on his head and under his nose.
You’re right about him. He never saw anything in foreign affairs that he didn’t want to blow up.
Haha! What? No Urban Outfitters or LLBean?
If he leaked, he should go out with no retirement.
Exactly. One more figure head for Trump to ignore, anyway. Bolton is probably Irish, hot tempered, and will blow up and leave. He has no working instinct on Trump, going into this job.
Will he catch on and get smart?
Which ‘incompetence’ are you referring to?
PS: Like Sessions... imho.
WHOO HOO!
What a team!
