Daniel 2:28 NIV
[28] but there is a God in heaven who reveals mysteries. He has shown King Nebuchadnezzar what will happen in days to come. Your dream and the visions that passed through your mind as you were lying in bed are these:
https://t.co/0BE6jTFL9M
Caught at the border. Released.
Caught again in Chicago. Released again.
Arrest warrant issued. No one came.
Three years later
he put on a ski mask,
hid behind a lighthouse,
and shot an eighteen-year-old college girl in the back.
She was looking at the skyline with her friends.
She died on the concrete.
This was preventable.
Every. Single. Piece. Of this. Was preventable.
March 19, 2026. Chicago.
She's a freshman. Eighteen.
Flew in from a small town in New York
to chase a bigger life.
Just after midnight, she walks out of her dorm
with five friends. Laughing. Whispering.
Someone heard the northern lights might be out.
They want to see the skyline from the pier.
Just kids. Just a Thursday night.
The kind of stupid beautiful thing
you do when you're eighteen
and the world still feels safe.
She walks ahead of the group.
Reaches the lighthouse first.
Behind it,
in the dark,
a man is waiting.
Black clothes. Black ski mask. A handgun.
She turns.
Whispers to her friends —
someone's back there.
He steps out. Gun raised.
They run.
One shot.
It hits her in the back.
Her friends hear her drop.
They come back.
She's on the ground. Bleeding.
Eighteen years old and dying
on a concrete pier
because she wanted to see the city lights.
Now here's the timeline
that should make your blood boil.
May 2023.
He crosses the border illegally.
Border Patrol catches him.
Has him in custody.
Releases him into the country.
June 2023.
One month later. Chicago.
Arrested for shoplifting.
They have him. Again.
Release him. Again.
He's told to show up to court.
He never does.
A judge issues a warrant for his arrest.
And nobody comes.
Nobody knocks on his door.
Nobody runs his name.
Nobody picks him up.
For three years,
a man with an active arrest warrant
lives freely in Chicago.
One block from a college campus.
One. Block.
You want to know what makes this
more than just a tragedy?
The state of Illinois has a law.
The TRUST Act.
It tells local police:
Don't help ICE.
Don't hold anyone for them.
Don't even tell them
when you let someone go.
A man gets caught at the border —
released.
Gets caught committing a crime —
released.
Skips court, warrant goes active —
and the law says don't look for him.
That is not a broken system.
That is the system doing exactly what it was built to do.
Read that sentence one more time.
The system worked perfectly.
And an eighteen-year-old girl is dead.
Her parents flew in from New York.
Stood on the pier where their daughter was killed.
Threw flowers into Lake Michigan.
Stop for a second and picture that.
A mother. At the exact spot
where her child bled out on a school night.
Throwing flowers into black water
because there's nothing left to do.
Her mother told the cameras:
"We've got to make changes."
Her father:
"There are definitely policies
that contributed to this happening."
They didn't scream. They didn't rage.
They stood on cold concrete
and asked this country, quietly,
to do better.
This country has not answered them.
She was studying business.
She was part of a Christian fellowship on campus.
Her family said she made people feel seen.
She made people feel valued.
She was someone's entire world.
And she was just trying to look at the skyline.
She should be packing up her dorm room right now.
She should be fighting with her roommate
about who gets the mini fridge.
She should be texting her mom
about what to bring home for summer.
She should be alive.
She should be alive.
She should be alive.
A border that held him would have saved her.
A jail that kept him would have saved her.
A warrant someone bothered to serve would have saved her.
A state that let its police do their damn jobs
would have saved her.
Four doors.
Four chances.
Every single one — left wide open.
And a girl who wanted to see the skyline
walked to the end of a pier
and never came back.
God bless every parent
who drops their kid off at college,
drives home with an empty back seat,
and has no choice but to trust
that this world will bring them back alive.
Out of every disgusting, dishonest piece of filth the mainstream media has produced about Hurricane Helene...
This is the worst.
60 Minutes has NEVER done a story on the families FEMA denied.
They NEVER mentioned the Amish, who are STILL in the mountains rebuilding homes 550 days later.
They NEVER mentioned Jake Jarvis, who has worked 550 days STRAIGHT FOR FREE for Hurricane Helene victims.
Instead, they dug up some fringe conspiracy angle to smear the people who actually showed up as White Nationalists.
I'm so angry.
Let me tell you what 60 Minutes will NEVER report on
I was there. I lived it. I am still here.
I shared every story I could find.
Me, my wife, hundreds of volunteers delivered RVs to mothers holding babies who were sleeping in TOOL SHEDS AND TENTS in the freezing cold, in the mountains.
Because their homes had been ripped off the side of a mountain and washed down the French Broad.
So tell me 60 Minutes... WHERE WAS THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT?
Tell me, WHY did all these volunteers NEED to show up?
Any thoughts on that?!!!!!
Any investigation AT ALL into the federal or state government's response to Hurricane Helene?
Please tell me... if the federal government was doing such a GREAT JOB, why did we need to put victims in RVs...
...A MONTH AFTER THE HURRICANE?!!!!!!!
Literally every single victim you talk to in Western North Carolina has a horror story about dealing with FEMA...
...and guess who they will all say actually cam through for them?
Neighbors.
Church groups.
The Amish.
The Cajun Navy.
Shawn Hendricks.
Samaritan's Purse.
MercuryOne.
The Mission Mules hauling insulin up washed-out roads, ONLY ACCESSIBLE by mules.
Greg Biffle burning his own fuel in helicopters.
Veterans like Adam Smith who organized helicopter rescues with other veterans BY HIMSELF and then was demonized by the media for it.
Volunteers like Jake Jarvis working TO THIS DAY, 550 days later without ANY PAY AT ALL.
THOSE ARE THE STORIES FROM HURRICANE HELENE WORTH TELLING.
But 60 Minutes won't tell ANY OF THEM.
Because the truth makes the federal government the villain and the "deplorables" are actually the heroes in this story and they can NEVER admit that.
So instead they smeared the rescuers as white nationalists.
This is unforgivable.
I was there. I saw it with my own eyes.
And I will BE DAMNED if I let CBS rewrite the history of what happened to my mountains.
@CharlesOCasey@BaptistLeaders@WillyRice Scripture warns of this over and over. We must be faithful to God's plan for leadership or we WILL pay the consequences.
For all my life I’ve paid taxes, and while I’ve been pretty irritated by it, this year it hits different.
I always knew there was fraud and abuse but what we’ve learned this year makes me think MOST of our tax $$ funds fraud & abuse while a tiny chunk funds necessities.
We need a revolution in how we spend money as a country and we need a revolution in how we tax people, because I firmly believe that YOU will put your money to uses far more beneficial to all of us than the government will.
Extremely powerful interests want us to be slaves to waste and abuse. We don’t have to be. I really think this is the rally cry of the future.
The more we’re taxed, the more we’re enslaved. The more money YOU keep from YOUR hard work, the more free we all are.
We need candidates going forward who are committed to keeping their hands out of our wallets. And yes, I paid my tax bill today. 😡��
What do you think?
Isaiah 1:18 NIV
[18] “Come now, let us settle the matter,” says the Lord. “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool.
