Breaking-- The Supreme Court stayed (aka removed/overturned) the injunction for the Corporate Transparency Act! We need the Trump administration to say they will not enforce penalties. We need Congress to repeal with the Repealing Big Brother Overreach Act. We need it now!

I am John Strand. I’m a J6 defendant.

I was unjustly sentenced to 3 years in prison and put in solitary confinement after speaking out about the J6 entrapment fraud.

Now I’m asking @realDonaldTrump to pardon ALL J6 defendants.

So I wanna make sure I'm clear on what they're saying is going on in Arizona...

74,000 people in AZ voted for their Republican HOUSE candidate but DID NOT vote for the Republican Senate candidate...

109,000 people in AZ voted for their Democrat Senate candidate but DID NOT vote for their Democrat HOUSE candidate...

Does that about sum it up?

In fact it almost looks as if those 74,000 people FLIPPED their vote from Republican to Democrat...

Doesn't it?

The blatant weaponization of government by partisan activists in the federal bureaucracy is yet another reason why the Biden-Harris administration is in its final days.

At my direction, the Division of Emergency Management is launching an investigation into the federal government’s targeted discrimination of Floridians who support Donald Trump.

New leadership is on the way in DC, and I’m optimistic that these partisan bureaucrats will be fired.

[Megan Basham @megbasham]

Last week, Matt Chandler, megachurch pastor and head of the massive church planting network Acts 29, gave a sermon on politics. In it, he pushed the false narrative, peddled by progressives, that the only reason that the GOP took up the issue of abortion was because they "were losing elections" and "developed a strategy in the 70s to co opt us and make [Christians] their people."

He goes on to say: "[The GOP] know we're easily manipulated. We are easily worked into a frenzy. We can be controlled by them. They can, and that's what they did, and they are not for us. They do not all believe what we believe. This is a strategy."

He does then call out the left for their pro-abortion policies, which he calls "morally reprehensible." BUT the overall upshot of his sermon recycles the old "both sides are bad." He specifically stresses that he does not trust Trump. Where does that leave his congregation? Likely sitting out or voting third party. He leaves his hearer with the impression that the two sides are moral equivalents.

It is true that prior to the 1970s, Republicans did not view the sanctity of life as part of their platform. But a generation of Christians labored and prayed and strategized and lobbied to try to get one of the major political parties to take up their cause.

These were faithful brothers and sisters following Scripture's commands to "rescue those being led away to death" and to "take up the cause of fatherless and oppressed."

In peddling this false left-wing narrative, Chandler is dismissing their efforts and sacrifices. In fact, I'd go so far as to say he is spitting on their legacy.

The work of politics is to use the leverage you have as a voting constituency to get legislators to take up your preferred policies. There is nothing dirty or sneaky in that. It is what the political process is. We should celebrate the fact that Christian pro-lifers of a previous generation did so so successfully with the GOP. We should not denigrate their work.

And remember--for decades these pro-lifers tried to get Democrats to take up their cause too and failed. That is to the Democrats' shame. We should thank God at least one party was willing to give life a seat at the table.

You and I can’t understand how a professing Christian could vote for a rabid abortion warrior like Kamala Harris or a mostly-lefty like RFK Jr or give someone half a vote by writing in, but, based on the many Christian women I talk to every day, I can tell you their calculation. I know you disagree with them. I disagree with them too. But, so you know, this, in general, is their thinking:

Abortion is the main issue, and they see every candidate as functionally pro-choice. To true pro-lifers, there is no moral difference between abortion at 16 weeks (DJT), abortion at 40 weeks (KH), and an abortion somewhere in between (RFK), since all human life is equal in worth. Most abortions happen before 12 weeks anyway. Trump condemned Florida’s heartbeat law. If it’s truly a “state’s rights” issue, then the president probably won’t make a big difference anyway. The “follow your heart” language is also, on a theological level, a huge turnoff to Christians (see Jeremiah 17:9).

When “Christians for Kamala” puts out an ad demonstrating that Trump doesn’t know the gospel, the kind of Christian woman they’re actually impacting is not the one who will vote Kamala. They know Kamala doesn’t know the Bible from the kamasutra and that her policies are evil. But now they may see that Trump also seems unfamiliar with the Bible and consider that his abortion policy may not be that much better. So they are likely to be demoralized altogether or incentivized to vote for someone else.

So, a vital percentage of pro-lifers either will not vote for president or they’ll write someone in. Another - smaller - percentage tell me they think RFK’s policies will help lower abortions through other means and that medical freedom is key to their support.

But as I engage with these voters, I can tell that most - if not all- of their votes are still up for grabs. They can be persuaded. And these votes, once secured, are more reliable and therefore more valuable than the secular, independent libs Trump seems to be vying for. Persuade those people too, sure, but that crowd is fickle. Many of them can’t even be trusted to vote, much less enthusiastically, publicly support Republicans.

Trump must fight to secure for every single pro-life Christian vote. He cannot win without them. And if you think, “they’ll vote Trump, because they have nowhere else to go,” you’ve made a fatal miscalculation. They see voting for a pro-choice candidate as rewarding compromise, and, yes, they’d rather Republicans lose than play a role in that.

You can call that insane, but, instead of that, try to persuade them. The Harris/Walz record on abortion and straight-up infanticide is so bleak. Their positions on immigration and economics are destructive. They are agents of chaos. All of this has a huge, tangible effect on our children and the neighbors whom we are called to love.

There is percentage of professing Christian women who will vote Kamala, but they’re not in my audience and they probably can’t be persuaded to switch their vote, as their support of her speaks to, in my view, some very fundamental errors re human nature, good vs evil, the role of the government, etc. that we probably don’t have time to correct in the next 85+ days.

Don’t criticize these persuadable voters, and ignore them at your peril. Instead, convince them. Remind them the chaos they’re voting against and the security, stability, and normalcy they’re voting for when they vote for Trump.

Just my two cents!

‘Our unvaccinated kids are actually providing the best shield — the most protection — to the vulnerable.’ @paulthomasmd

A sweeping study of thousands (yes, thousands) of patients in now-retired Paul Thomas, M.D.’s pediatric practice showed that the pro-vaccine narrative — that is, that unvaccinated people are somehow a health threat to vaccinated ones — is completely false.
