I would never have let my kid watch Sesame Street, or any of those PBS shows, frankly, I didn’t allow television.

Reject the Satanic lies that the Democrats are spreading.

The Democrats are the face of Godless Reprobate agendas.

What Democrat Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama and friends shamelessly promote

Rainbow White House happened on June 26, 2015



There is a determined effort to normalize this all over the world. I'm encouraging people not to attend nor support this stuff. 

NO VIOLENCE suggested nor implied, of course. Do NO harm, Christians.

The Days of Lot are upon us.

Just as prophesied in the New Testament by Jesus Christ Himself:

RE: never watch Sesame Street....

2014
CBS News
Actor Kevin Clash, the voice of Elmo on “Sesame Street” for 28 years, has been cleared of sex abuse charges, according to The Hollywood Reporter (THR) .

An appeals court threw out the three charges against Clash, 53, saying the claims were made outside New York’s statute of limitations.

Clash was charged with sexual abuse by three men who said he molested them when they were minors, more than 10 years ago. But New York law states that a lawsuit must be filed within six years of the alleged event, or three years after a plaintiff turns 21, THR reports.

At the time of his resignation from the show he stated:
“Personal matters have diverted attention away from the important work ‘Sesame Street’ is doing and I cannot allow it to go on any longer.”
