The Declaration of Independence conceived a nation. Yes, it took the revolutionary war, a constitution, and a Bill of Rights to give us the birth of these United States. A country that would shortly become the light of liberty, the great hope of the nations. A country that has grown to be the most powerful country ever. In economic power, in military might, in virtually every way, America has established its ability to call out the better angels of humanity.
We stand at a time when the premise of our country’s greatness is being challenged. Not with facts, history, or intelligent debate. Because those would show the uncomfortable truth to those doing the challenging: that we have been, and are, the greatest nation in the world. We have God-given rights and freedoms bestowed upon our citizens in ways that had never occurred before. We have achieved much. Yes, we have flaws. We’re human, but we’re better than anyplace else.
There is no better alternative model country. There is no better alternative governance. There is no alternative system that has raised the collective ability to live life well, pursue happiness, pursue the uplifting of humanity, or has enriched its citizenry so well as the one we have now. And there’s not a close second. We are the most generous, inclusive, open-minded people ever. A testimony to humanity’s better side.
Yet we are being called by the left to abandon all that. We are being called by the left to forgo our birthright of liberty for the shackles of collectivist governance, which has destroyed every country it has been tried in. A bowl of pottage for our birthright. Leftists have the audacity to want us to believe their leaders are finally smart enough to properly institute this system of tyranny.

In researching prophecy for 2021, there are bleak warnings for us and the world.
There always are, but a number of the sources were foreboding.
Do your own research. And pray.
Franklin Graham is correct.

After Nov. 3, the meaning of some words and concepts abruptly changed. Have you noticed how new realities have replaced old ones?
<><> Media cross-examination of the president is now an out-of-date idea. The time for gotcha questions has come and gone. Why ask a president whether he is a traitor or a crook when you can focus on his favorite flavor of milkshake or compliment him on his socks?
The old pre-election truth was that new vaccines take years to develop. The new postelection truth is that it’s no big deal to bring out new vaccines in nine months.
<><> Impeaching a first-term president after his first midterm election — on a strictly partisan vote, for political reasons other than the Constitution’s “treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors” — is now a terrible idea.
<><> Worse would be to appoint a special counsel to harass a president on unfounded charges of collusion with China. An even scarier notion would be a conservative dream team of partisan lawyers hounding President Joe Biden — using a 22-month, $40 million blank check.
<><> It would be unprofessional for university psychologists and physicians from a distance to diagnose, in pop fashion, the mental faculties of a President Biden.
Certainly, there would never be talk about Department of Justice officials contemplating wearing a wire as part of an entrapment scheme to remove a President Biden through the 25th Amendment. That would almost constitute a coup attempt.
<><> Almost as bad would be for the holdover FBI director to start “memorializing” his private conversations with Joe Biden on FBI devices. He might then leak such memos to the press — just in case he were to be fired for secretly investigating Biden for “Chinese collusion” and then lying about such a probe.
<><> What happened to the Logan Act? Not long ago it was assumed to be a critically needed guardrail. Wouldn’t it now ensure that presidential transition team members were not calling foreign leaders while Donald Trump is still president? How has it suddenly become a defunct, ossified relic?
<><> Leaking classified material would be about the worst thing government officials could do. Imagine if a Trump holdover, burrowed into the new Biden administration, released a transcript of Biden’s private conversations with the Mexican president or the Australian prime minister.
Such a breach of trust would be almost as bad as a turncoat anti-Biden mole seeking to resist presidential directives. Imagine if this anonymous staffer were given an op-ed in the New York Tines to claim that a cadre of old-time Democrats were shocked by Biden’s cognitive decline and resisting his directives.
<><> Is extending security clearances to former high-level officials turned cable-TV pundits still a bad idea? Who would wish to see, for instance, former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe issuing warnings each night on Fox News? With a wink-and-nod hat tip to his “confidential sources,” Ratcliffe could spin conspiracy theories that Biden is facing bombshell disclosures about his family misadventures with the Chinese.
<><> Is it still important that we keep the tradition of retired high-ranking military officers — all subject to the requirements of the Uniform Code of Military Justice — not disparaging the president? Who would want former Pentagon officials, some of them serving on the boards of military contractors, warning us that Biden should be removed because of cognitive challenges? Certainly, generals and admirals should not compare a President Biden’s policies to those of Mussolini or the Nazis.
It was a good idea and I told her so. I suggested to her that she share her idea with her manager.
She told me that she had tried but was basically told that creative thinking was not encouraged. It was considered an insult to the upper management.
That is how China and communism work. If the workers have the freedom to think and are encouraged to do so, sooner or later they will criticize the leaders...and then the top-down nature of the system (required in communism and totalitarian governments) begins to breakdown.
And that's why Chinese management/leadership has to steal its ideas and intellectual property from America.
On January 6th, the Congressional proceedings NEED to open with objections from the House and Senate to ANY acceptance of electors from states utilizing the Dominion voting systems. Dominion voting systems are a national security threat to the USA
This forces the debate over their integrity to the floor of the Congress and instantly defines the traitors and the patriots in the room

I suspect there may have been other reasons (unknown to the clerk) as to why the company had their procedures in place; if it really had been an improvement (that met GAAP standards) in the corporate world it would seem more likely her manager would pass it along as his/her own idea to steal credit for it. There are smart clerks and smart women, but often the griping by line workers stems from not seeing the larger picture.
Of course, they may really have just discouraged creative thinking which was regarded by upper management as an insult!
Yes. We definitely have a sense in my church that this could very well be the end times.
My church (Fundamental Independent Baptist) is not a prophecy church.
But the news events of the past year definitely point to this.
Sending you FReepmail.

Tidbit for the day
The Left has been taking God out of our beloved country for many decades, actively removing God from our schools, our workplaces, our government, our entertainment.
They do the work of Satan, seen clearly now.
Where have I seen that look before?

Nicolae Ceausescu - Last Speech, Trial and Execution
Look for a pic of his other half......(cough) “Dr.” Jill.
Tucker Carlson read her “doctoral dissertation” on his show.......concluded she’s a functional illiterate.
She also has the worst taste in fashion.....on election night she wore something that looked like a bathrobe worn over a nightgown
“functional illiterate” = ComDem DingBat /smile
At least she is not like Derrr Hilderbeast.
