Muhammad, near death: “May Allah curse the Jews and Christians”

Jesus, on the cross: “Father, forgive them”

One leaves a curse. The other leaves forgiveness. That contrast speaks for itself.

Crude goes up and gas prices jump immediately. Crude fell to a $70 barrel and gas prices barely budged.

It's all a scam folks.

HISTORY LESSON ON YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY CARD:
Just in case some of you young whippersnappers (& some older ones) didn’t know this. It’s easy to check out, if you don’t believe it. Be sure and show it to your family and friends. They need a little history lesson on what’s what and it doesn’t matter whether you are Democrat or Republican. Facts are FACTS.
Up until the 1980's, Social Security cards expressly stated the number and card were not to be used for identification purposes.
Since nearly everyone in the United States now has a number, it became convenient to use it anyway and the "NOT FOR IDENTIFICATION" message was removed.
Franklin Roosevelt, a Democrat, introduced the Social Security (FICA) Program. His promises are in black, with updates in brackets.
1.) That participation in the Program would be completely voluntary [No longer voluntary],
2.) That the participants would only have to pay 1% of the first $1,400 of their annual Incomes into the Program [Now 7.65% on the first $90,000, and 15% on the first $90,000 if you’re self-employed],
3.) That the money the participants elected to put into the Program would be deductible from their income for tax purposes each year [No longer tax deductible],
4.) That the money the participants put into the independent ‘Trust Fund’ rather than into the general operating fund, and therefore, would only be used to fund the Social Security Retirement Program, and no other Government program [Under Johnson the money was moved to the General Fund and spent], and
5.) That the annuity payments to the retirees would never be taxed as income [Under Clinton & Gore up to 85% of your Social Security can be taxed].
Since many of us have paid into FICA for years and are now receiving a Social Security check every month — and then finding that we are getting taxed on 85% of the money we paid to the Federal government to ‘put away’ — you may be interested in the following:
Q: Which Political Party took Social Security from the independent ‘Trust Fund’ and put it into the general fund so that Congress could spend it?
A: It was Lyndon Johnson and the democratically controlled House and Senate.
Q: Which Political Party eliminated the income tax deduction for Social Security (FICA) withholding?
A: The Democratic Party.
Q: Which Political Party started taxing Social Security annuities?
A: The Democratic Party, with Al Gore casting the ‘tie-breaking’ deciding vote as President of the Senate, while he was Vice President of the US
AND MY FAVORITE:
Q: Which Political Party decided to start giving annuity payments to immigrants?
A: That’s right! Jimmy Carter and the Democratic Party. Immigrants moved into this country, and at age 65, began to receive Social Security payments! The Democratic Party gave these payments to them, even though they never paid a dime into it!
Now, after violating the original contract (FICA), the Democrats turn around and tell you that the Republicans want to take your Social Security away!
And the worst part about it is uninformed citizens believe it! If enough people receive this, maybe a seed of awareness will be planted and maybe changes will evolve. Maybe not, though. Some Democrats are awfully sure of what isn’t so — but it’s worth a try.
How many people can YOU send this to?

🚨🚨 The Supreme Court is asking Congress for millions more in security funding, including six additional security agents per justice.

Here is the leader of the Democrat Party threatening the lives of Supreme Court justices.

[Rising serpent 🇺🇸 @rising_serpent]

The craziest part of the supreme Court justice testimony was how they complained about their security being compromised at the hands of a few nutjobs while allowing millions of crazy violent illegals to compromise national security and jeopardize our lives through birthright citizenship.

This should have been done decades ago!--------------

Rules:
1. Tenure / No Pension. A Congressman/woman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when they're out of office. And no more perks go with them.
2. Congress (past, present, & future) participates in Social Security. All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social Security system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social Security system, and Congress participates with the American people. It may not be used for any other purpose.
3. Congress must purchase their own retirement plan, just as ALL Americans do.
4. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise. Congressional pay will rise at the same rate as the COLA for monthly Social Security recipients minus 1% if having a budget balance deficit.
5. Congress loses their current care system and participates in the same health care system (Medicare) as the American people.
6. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American people (i.e. NO MORE INSIDER TRADING!!!).
7. All contracts with past and present Congressmen/women are void. The American people did not make this contract with Congressmen/women. Congress made all these contracts by and for themselves.
Serving in Congress is an honor and privilege, NOT a career.
The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators should serve their term(s), then go home and go back to work ��� not get all kinds of freebies. Term limits of 2 terms and treat them like a regular citizen!

I AGREE SO IM SHARING!

Note: This should be done immediately!!!

[Gina @GinaSaysSo]

When the Democrats have the majority, they destroy this country.

They are destroyers.

When Republicans have the majority, they keep the destruction in place and do (less than) nothing to reverse it.

They are placeholders.

Both destruction and placeholding requires planning, and some sort of an agreement with the other "side."

I think the midterms have already been decided. Maybe not the individual races, but certainly which party will hold the majorities.

If our Conservative representation was in fact representing voters, they'd be securing our elections.

Nothing would stop them.

It's their duty.

But fair elections are "agenda disrupters", and our Congress is all about agenda, and continually inching voters (who believe ourselves free) toward complete government control.

There is no place in our current, crooked system for FAIR elections, or the SAVE America Act.

[SaltyGoat @SaltyGoat17]

HUNTER'S LAPTOP.

But NOW they're telling the truth?

NEVER trust the media or Democrats!!

[Gina @GinaSaysSo]

Congress is just riding it out.

They've been busted too many times.

There is no clean slate.

Everything is dirty.

No possibility of a Congressional committee that actually represents our best interests.

No strongly worded letter that's worth an X post.

Abolish and rebuild is the only way.

Like the IRS and Federal Reserve, Congress is in place to justify stealing from us and limiting citizen opportunity through continual increases in illegal taxation, waste-of-money programs, studies, experiments, and self-enrichment through insider trading and bribery.

ALL on our dime.

There IS NO REPRESENTATION for US citizens.

We are PAYING Congress to destroy us.

[John @MagaGrunt1]

🇺🇸Imagine that…🇺🇸

[Rep. Nancy Mace @RepNancyMace]

The President and Vice President are already required to be natural born citizens of the United States. The same standard should apply to Members of Congress, federal judges, and Senate-confirmed officers.

We introduced a joint resolution proposing a constitutional amendment to make this clear.

If you hold the power to govern the American people, your loyalty should be to America and America alone.

[Alveda C. King, Ph.D. @AlvedaCKing]

As America celebrates 250 years, I pray we remember what truly unites us.

“As both a citizen of the United States of America and of Heaven, I believe there is no better time than now for a revival of biblical truth, repentance, and renewed passion for God and country.”

May we celebrate our freedoms with grateful hearts, seek God’s face, and recommit ourselves to truth, righteousness, and unity. We are one blood, one human race, from the womb to the tomb, and beyond.

[James Woods @RealJamesWoods]

I hadn’t read the Declaration of Independence since high school history class. Ah, yes, history class! In fact we had American history throughout the tenth grade, then world history during our junior year. When I listen to the TikTok crowd spew the nonsense they champion today, I think how easily their knuckle-headed thinking could have been cured with a few good history classes. Alas, I don’t see much hope for the future, as long as the teachers in our urban areas are in the clutches of politicians and unions with a far different agenda from real education.

Now rereading the document for the first time in decades (shame on me for taking so long), I had forgotten that the bulk of the text is a list of grievances suffered by the American colonists at the hands of the king and various elements under his tyrannical regime. What has truly stunned me these 250 years later, however, is how familiar these grievances feel in our contemporary situation. Let’s take a peek at the exact text, and see if anything feels uncomfortably close to home (the “He” refers to King George, of course, and I will use the original spelling and punctuation):

“He has refused to Assent to Laws”

Hmm, every “sanctuary state” governor today for starters…

“He has made Judges dependent of his Will alone”

Hmm, activist judges anybody?

“He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people”

Hmm, 87,000 new armed IRS agents. Ring a bell?

“For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent”

Hmm, ever looked at your tax bill?

“…transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation and tyranny…”

Hmm, thirty million military-age males pouring across our open borders from 2020 to 2024…

“He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us”

Hmm, BLM and Antifa riots…

SHORT VERSION: LEAVE US ALONE!

The very essence of the Declaration of Independence is a concerted celebration of God’s gift of our “unalienable” right to “Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.” It was argued, researched, debated yet again, drafted by Jefferson, then edited by Adams, Franklin, and others. Together the bravest men stood together against the storm of tyranny and gambled it all. As I reread it today, I literally shed tears at those miraculous words:

“And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortune and our sacred Honor.”

And then, of course, there were those who shed more than tears. They shed their blood, watched their homes burn, and too many gave the ultimate sacrifice. Whether they formed local militias or joined the Continental Army, colonists now dedicated to the cause, gambled their very lives. One of those Americans was my ninth generation ancestor. He fought in one of the most consequential battles of the American Revolution, the Battle of Cowpens. I am forever honored that his blood runs in my veins.

I know that this will be a joyful and glorious weekend for all of you, God willing. It should also be, if I may presume to say, a solemn one as well. The sacrifices made by simple men and women those many years ago have made these precious rights and this glorious day possible. Take a moment and honor them in your heart. I know I will.

These two short sentences tell you a lot about our government and our culture!

1. We are advised to not judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, But we are encouraged to judge All Gun Owners by the actions of a few lunatics.

Funny how that works….

And here is another one worth considering.
2. Seems we constantly hear about how Social Security is going to run out of Money. How come we never hear about Welfare running out of money?

What's Interesting is the first group "worked for" their money, but the second didn't.

Profound isn't it... Think about it.....
