To drive up hydrocarbon energy costs so wind/solar look more acceptable to the public.

They are setting America up for a collapse that can be blamed on Trump and the GOP.

The New World Order, Great Reset, etc are all just the final implementation of global socialism.

Putin is part of this and will be remembered for helping to usher in the socialist victory over the West.

[In Luxor, Egypt, the terrorists danced, sang and killed and mutilated the foreign tourists. They “took all the young women, the girls, and disappeared with them. I don’t know where they went with the women, but they hurt them. We could hear screams of pain.” Among the dead was Shaunnah Turner, a 5-year-old British girl.]

Oh ... my ... goodness ...

It was a building in the Vatican, a Catholic auditorium. I’ve heard of it before but forgot the name.

“But his agendas may have fundamentally changed the country for decades, if not longer—and will require tough remedies that may be almost as unpopular as the wreckage they wrought.”

There’s no fixing this.

I like VDH, I really do. But for Conservatives to constantly beat around the bush asking rhetorical questions is a waste of time and allows the opportunity to deflect and move on. The constant insinuations by Conservatives to avoid any commitment is tiresome. If you are going to shoot, shoot. Get in the Jake Tappers face. Get in Joe’s face.

I would love to see DJT tell FJB at the debate that Obama is the one pulling his strings because Joe has no idea what he’s signing from day to day and couldn’t put a complete sentence together without the help of a teleprompter. Sadly, for the right, Trump is probably the only one who would do that.

Yep, if they have been taught that the 7-year Tribulation isn’t coming, and that Satan’s Antichrist (and False Prophet) aren’t coming, then some guy who shows up, does “miracles” by his False Prophet and accomplishes (confirms) a 7-year plan of “Peace and Security” then they’ll think and believe that he’s “the messiah”.

It will be Satan’s anti-messiah but much of the world will not understand that until the Abomination that Causes Desolation and the Mark of the Beast begins.

Of course, most of the world does not believe this. So.....things will continue to play out.

No, that building is inside the walls of Vatican City. There are a few more pictures that show the building shape.

The statue of “beating swords into plowshares” (bad timing on their part) IS at the United Nations (surrounding area)

Well, if one was going to slow-walk, drag-their-feet cripple the U.S.A., that would be a great way to do it.

I,ve been to the Vatican, but I guess it wasn’t on the “tour”. Where can I read about it?
