“The Sunday Morning Bray”, by Bray!

And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD, and served Baalim Judges 2:11

When your political party is actually a Marxist Cult you do not have to have any new ideas of results you simply have to spout religious commandments. A simple statement like the other party is destroying the earth or they are racist, sexist, homophobes and if you believe in us you have absolution from those names. You can claim it is good to live under poverty as long as you worship the earth even if your earth worship is killing the planet, results do not matter only the faithful following matters.

It is so easy to make people believe whatever you want by simply saying science says and the followers will do whatever you want. The Three Pillars of the cult (Academia, media and the DNC) simply declare a truth and then broadcast it to the followers and they believe completely. There is no discussion or introspection of it is good for the parishioners, it is declared and people follow. Now it has become a free for all as anyone can claim a societal offense by a person or action and this becomes a new cult truth.

The basis of the religion besides Global Warming is the hatred of America and its history. The cult is a Godless religion based on earthen gods and idols which the cult worships unendingly. It has copied much of Judaism with its basis in veganism forcing someone to eat rabbit food in a search for cleansing of the body. Anybody who has tried this heavy legume diet knows this diet is anything but friendly to the earth with the increased methane production of the body and the damage that must do to their Global Warming doctrine. The forests are a perfect symbol of what is wrong with worshiping the earth. Decades ago the same people forced the people who were properly managing the forests out of those lands. They had been managing those forests in the West for the previous hundred years with a true biological basis and the forests were never healthier.

The healthy forests made for healthy wildlife and clean water as the rotation of the trees as well as thinning out the dead and dying trees keeping fire danger at a minimum. The health of the forests was rewarded by faster and healthier growing trees which fed the mills to be used for home building as the Greatest Generation built the developments around America with low cost plentiful organic lumber. This was a symbiotic relationship as the healthy forests were managed properly while being harvested and never coming close to overcutting since the massive forests could never be harvested or would be harvested outside of sustainability limits.

The environmental cult came into the forests with their religious clichés about managing the forests was destroying the them and needed to be shut down. Never mind they never had any sort of scientific evidence they found a couple of small population species of animal out in the forests and had Academia claim they were endangered by the cutting of trees and drove the forest managers out of those forests and left them to fend for themselves.

After fifty years of forest mismanagement these forests are overgrown and dying from the inside out. There is so much dead and dying trees in the forests you cannot walk through one without running into clumps of small dead trees and a forest floor littered with down trees drying waiting for a spark. We are seeing the results of the worship of the forests with massive deadly fires that kills hundreds of square miles of trees, animals and people every summer as these fires rage at sometimes 70 mph.

The DNC cult does not care about the forests just as they do not care about blacks, women or homosexuals, the forests are simply a club to further their political agenda. They use their religion to both control their people and to bludgeon their enemies by labeling them as haters or in the forests case, not protecting the earth. Never mind these fires are damaging the earth and environment as well as the air far worse than anything else in the world, they excuse the fires as natural and ignore the environmental damage they are causing.

The dead and dying forests are a perfect example of what is wrong with running a political movement as a religion rather than what it really is. They do not have to explain why their ideas are hurting rather than helping the very forests they claim to care about. They have destroyed these forests and have no solutions or even the slightest answers since their followers will protest any real solutions to the complete mismanagement of these lands.

They will be shouted down for thinning the choking forests for fear a tree will be cut down rather than massive forests being burned to the ground. Their religion goes around the science as well as the proper stewardship of these trees and goes straight to worship. There is no inner soul searching if they are doing the right thing for the earth they claim to protect when blast furnace fires sterilizes massive swaths of forests killing the soil and making that area desert for decades due to the heat of these disastrous fires.

The religion will just claim that is the way nature cleans the forests when it could not be further from the truth. Natural fires would burn at much lower temps and simply clear out the brush and overgrown areas leaving cleared areas for grasses and regrowth of new trees. Just the opposite is happening as the sterilization of the ground makes a bad situation worse. Add to this the bug infestations after the fires killing up double the number of trees the fire destroyed and you have the systematic killing of our national forests.

The solution is selling these forests to the people and letting them manage the trees properly. Just as there is a solution for every cult caused problem the forests may be the easiest and most rewarding of all. Within a decade the forests could be healthy, the air cleaner and the forest wildlife healthier with proper management and thinning of these dying trees and planting new. Rather than massive fires we would have huge herds of deer, elk and every other forest creature living in a much healthier environment the way it is supposed to be.

The forests are a symbol of everything the cult touches. Just as we see the dead and dying trees we are seeing a dead and dying society. People are terrified to say, think or do anything for fear of being attacked by the cult for not worshiping the right way. For anyone to say they think homosexuality or transgenderism is unhealthy risks losing their job, house or life. The cult has unchecked power and terrorizes people into following their commandments without any discussion or thought. The cult claims a behavior illegal and you must obey or face death no questions asked.

There is a fire raging across American society and it needs to be fought and put out. It is the flames of a deadly religion which is out of control and threatens to destroy the entire fabric of this country. It is time to manage the forests properly as well as our society. It is time to become stewards of our forests rather than worshiping trees. It is time to free the forests from the dangers of earth worship and use proper stewardship to be able to let them become healthy again for the health of our forests and our country. It is time to turn away from worshiping the creation and towards worshiping our creator.

Pray for America

Morning AB, All. As always, thank you AB for doing this thread so reliably and keeping the peace with gentle thread policing. Thank you Bray for weekly written wisdom, Thank you Rodguy for fishing tales and political perspectives from all angles, Thank all yon contributors for excellent commentary to flesh it all out.

Below are the words from my daily political diary. It is quite long so scroll on by if not interested. But do stay around and add your commentary and point of view to the thread.

Happy Mother’s Day!!

5/7/19

BIDEN GETS CALL FROM MARGARET THATCHER

We all make gaffes but Joe Biden wins the prize. He says he’s been getting calls from many world leaders, including Margaret Thatcher, who’s been dead since 2013.

This is just the beginning folks. Get popcorn and settle in for laughs.

CONFRONTATIONS ACROSS THE GLOBE

The story, short on detail, was that an American carrier group was going to be sent to the Persian Gulf. Bits and pieces came out during the day that hinted that Iran had plans to set off some bombs on Mideast neighbors .

I listened and wondered who on earth is leaking this stuff? Or maybe they wanted Iran to get the message.

Because suddenly there’s a sudden group of military assaults at various points on the planet.

Palestine, that state that never existed, is suddenly lobbing bombs at Israel.

Does anybody remember Yassar Arafat? Guy’s now buried in somebody’s garden. He was the pawn of Iran, Hamas, Hezbollah, maybe all three. He was behind endless bombs thrown at neighboring Israel for many years until, thankfully, he died.

Hillary and Madeline Albright used to share wine with Arafat because those people never fought back, peaceful Israeli citizens trying to live a peaceful life be damned.

Also little Kim Jung-Un suddenly started lobbing “short” bombs toward Japan, tiny creep without an ounce of meaning to his empty life.

There’s unrest around the globe and let us not forget China and the looming tariff war.

We’re keeping eye on. We have stronger people in charge now.

5/8/19

CONGRESS DENIED ACCESS TO PRESIDENT TRUMP’S TAXES

What the hell is with those Democrats? We have a lawfully elected president who has already served 2.5 years and now congress demands his tax return? Can they do that?

Can the gubmint demand MY tax return if, on a whim, they want it?

----------------------------------

HERE

Mnuchin, in a letter to House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Richard Neal (D-Mass.), said he had consulted with the Justice Department and that they had concluded that it would not be lawful for the Trump administration to turn over the tax returns because of potential violations of privacy.

----------------------------

We shall see if this goes to the Supreme Court.

Can they annoy, harass and deter this president any more?

-----------------------------

STOCK DOWN

Fears over an upcoming tariff negotiation with China is driving the stock market down, as of this writing over 500 points down.

The stock market shall rise again but know that the Chinese are too often not to be believed.

And they sure don’t believe in the sanctity of intellectual property.

I was so shocked one day when I was reading entries in a writing contest, one I was considering entering. I could not believe when I found a story THAT I HAD WRITTEN!!!

It took some investigating and reporting but in due course it was discovered the story was stolen from me by a Chinese man.

Not making this up.

If the Chinese get their hands on it, no matter who wrote it, drew it, painted it or built it, THEY will take credit for it.

If they get a chance and they don’t get caught.

5/9/18

DON McGAHN ORDERED NOT TO TESTIFY

The talking points are that this guy talked to Mueller for around 30 hours. Allgedly McGahn told investigators that President Trump once ordered him to fire Mueller. In the Mueller report this action is considered obstruction of justice.

Do don’t get mad folks if the FBI is treating you unfairly or preventing you from doing your job. In your anger do not shout at to fire anybody because….well don’t say anything. PRESIDENT TRUMP SHOULD NOT ANYTHING….EVER…EVER…AGAIN.

But Mueller would find something wrong with that too.

here

The White House has ordered former White House counsel Don McGahn not to turn over documents to Congress because President Trump may exert executive privilege to block their release.

Pat Cipollone, the top White House lawyer, wrote a Tuesday letter asking the House Judiciary Committee to go through the White House to request documents related to special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation.

“The White House provided these records to Mr. McGahn in connection with its cooperation with the special counsel's investigation and with the clear understanding that the records remain subject to the control of the White House for all purposes,” Cipollone wrote to House Judiciary Chairman Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.).

“The White House records remain legally protected from disclosure under longstanding constitutional principles, because they implicate significant executive branch confidentiality interests and executive privilege,” Cipollone added.

------------------------

JOE BIDEN REPEATS MONDALE’S MISTAKE.

Heh.

So Biden’s out on the campaign trail and folks I might need a big notebook to keep up with his gaffes.

....“First thing I’d do is repeal those Trump tax cuts,” said Biden.

Biden also repeated a lie he made during his campaign kickoff speech, claiming only high-income households received a tax cut. The Washington Post gave this claim four Pinocchios, noting it was “clearly false.” The Post also stated: “Most Americans received a tax cut.”

“Joe Biden is not Methuselah. He is Walter Mondale part deux,” said Grover Norquist, president of Americans for Tax Reform. In 1984 Mondale famously promised to raise taxes if elected. He lost to Ronald Reagan in the electoral college 525-13, winning only his home state of Minnesota and the District of Columbia.

------------------------------

But of course we’ll vote for a contender who proclaims that he will eliminate tax cuts. What right does anybody have to reduce cash flow for the gubmint? It is the gubmint that keeps us alive, the gubmint that holds our health care.

Heh.

Keep it up Joe. We’ll pull that lever for your real quick.

-------------------

HOUSE VOTE ON AG BARR

Indeed those clowns did vote that Barr lied before congress. I watched Nadler and go on….he spoke and spoke and spoke.

He said pretty much nothing

5/10/19

Not much happening this day but I do have one grand observation that will rock the world.

For now, as of this writing I have taped the interview, on CNN, of one of the most despicable people on the planet. I speak of former FBI Director, James Comey. He is being interviewed on the second anniversary of his firing by Anderson Cooper.

Tomorrow I shall update, mock and deride.

For now, I have heard that a lot of information about the great spy hoax of the election of 2016 is going to be released next week.

They are waiting for the IG’s report and then it all will be released.

THEY NAMED HIM WHAT?

Yes they did.

They named that precious baby Archie.

What were they thinking?

5/11/19

THE INFAMOUS CNN TOWN HALL COMEY INTERVIEW

I intentionally taped the infamous Comey interview on CNN, in a Town Hall format of all things. Interviewer-Anderson Cooper.

When asked if there was really "spying" going on in the Trump campaign, Comey chastised that it isn't really spying, it's called INVESTIGATING.

Come on people. We've spent over two years debating a Russian collusion that did not happen and how many years and money will we spend defining "spying".

Comey said if his former employees Stroczyk and Paige are punishing severely for breaking the rules he was okay with it. Note only the underlings deserve punishment.

At some point Comey, the wonderful, fair, kind and decent man said that he knows that Trump colluded with the Russians, the Mueller report be damned.

The Comey talking point, the all wise and all knowing, was that the Trump presidency shows that leaders don't need a moral component.

TALK ABOUT NOT HAVING ANY MORALS!

There are few "leaders" more moral-less than James Comey.

Make no mistake, I can't stand the man. He is dishonest and deceitful and he does it with a smile as he talks to you like you are an idiot. He makes up his own rules but jails others who do the same. He writes books of his misdeeds, brazen and with never an ounce of humility.

And I'm guessing he will never go away.

REPUBLICAN SENATOR SUBPOENA’S DONALD TRUMP JR.

This Burr Senator, Chairman of the Senate Judiciary committee, a REPUBLICAN, has subpoena'd Donald Trump Jr.

Allegedly is because of something the very decent and honest Cohen lawyer said right before going to jail.

And a REPUBLICAN is pulling in the President's child because of something a shyster said?

Senate Head Mitch McConnell said the Mueller probe is over. So why are HIS charges still calling innocent people before the Senate for silly reasons such as this?

Mitch…..he is no leader.

Burr is obviously a RINO

Margaret Thatcher tells Biden she doesn’t like Donald Trump as President of the USA. But she died in 2013.

Donald Trump didn’t announce a run until 2015.

NO one was saying Donald Trump was going to run for President in 2013. While he had ruminated the idea for years, he still was NOT on anyone’s radar then.

Biden’s a liar, and the press, once again, suppresses news that makes democrats look bad.

Biden is a liar.

Thanks for posting every week AB. I usually catch Sunday Morning Futures with Maria. This morning I’m looking forward to SMF as my Congressman, Dan Crenshaw, will be on. Although he’s a first term Representative, I find him a excellent spokesman for my conservative values. I’m so proud he is my Representative.

Really good stuff today bud.
I especially liked how you pointed out that the dems dont love America and their agenda is not to make it better but to tear it apart and create the ultimate in chaos in the process. As to the forests no on knows better what should be done than you since that is in your line of work. Privitization is the key get the forests out of the hands of govt. and into the hands of people who really care about their survival.
...................
Key to achieving these goals is to have the right people in office in each and every area of the country. We have a model we have an example our potus who is a self made man and is a patriot first and politician last.
I had the pleasure of meeting Trumps counter part yesterday.She’s a candidate for Debby mucarelllss Powell’s seat in the 26th district of South Fla. and her name is Irina Vilarino.
Her family came to the US from Cuba in 1980 and her father quickly set up a fruit stand on a major intersection in West palm beach.A few years later they had their first restaurant a 14 seat small place and today through no small effort they have 14 restaurants and 400 employees.
Irina is the quintessential example of a major success story and she and Trump are so alike it’s amazing.
Both revere the country and put America first.Both are ardent capitalists are not afraid of hard work and basically both are fearless.
Irina spoke before our REC meeting in Marathon Fla. yesterday and asked for five minutes.A half hour later she was going strong answering questions as fast as she could and being interrupted by applause constantly.
She is the ultimate candidate we have been looking for and will easily take out debby powell next year.Like Trump we are lucky to have her run.

Thanks for thread A.B. Becoming frustrated with our side for putting all eggs in IG Report basket like Dems thought Mueller Report would save their day. We need to go on the offensive, but be smart about it.

Sure wish Trump had his own DOJ and FBI. Wray expresses zero loyalty to The Man.

Your thread is the first one I read every Sunday morning.

Maria Bartiromo’s show, as usual, is the only one worth watching.

Gates says age is an issue, referencing the older dems, I assume. "Lots of energy is needed for the job", (which DJT has clearly demonstrated he has, mentally and physically.)

Meanwhile, there seems to be a coalescing for a BIDEN / HARRIS ticket....at least among the Black Caucus.

I have no TV, by choice, to watch. But if I did, SUNDAY MORNING FUTURES (FNC) would be the only program even coming close to being worthwhile.

Good news with Moulton’s candidacy: Marie Harf of Fox TV and radio has joined his campaign. Her idiocy won’t be missed.
