@BernieSanders The plane doesn’t belong to him, you twit🙄. I’m not saying he actually did any of what you’re accusing, but so what?! Was any of it illegal? He’s done more good for all Americans than the communist crap you pedal ever could. You are garbage, sir, and poison for our country

[sbaswell @sbaswell]

@StephenKing You are Trump deranged and irrelevant. Stopped reading your books decades ago

@FoxNews Would LOVE to see this cockroach caught, tried and imprisoned! Will it happen though? 🤷‍♂️

@amyklobuchar That’s not American taxpayer money, it’s frozen Iranian assets, and it’s not all at once, it’s over time, as they comply with the deal. You post things like that because you’re a dem and your playbook is to gaslight 🙄

@clipartfarm @dbongino Nothing degenerate about UFC, ESPECIALLY, when compared to the left’s Trans antics on the WH lawn. Not sure you even know what degenerate means. And no one thinks @dbongino is a traitor but the left, and meh, who cares?

@chiky_handlr No other president in US history has had a press corps to deal with which is as rude, ignorant and insulting as ours.

@Starbucks Someone in Quality Control should visit the Starbucks in the lobby of the Courtyard Marriott in Wilmington, NC, order an Americano and see what you think. Then, say something about the sub-Starbucks-standard coffee and see what you think about the service.

@maddenifico Wow, such projection! 😂

[sbaswell @sbaswell]

@ClimateWarrior7 No one denies climate changes, it has fluctuated since time began. Also, no one is saying don’t be good stewards of what we have. The climate alarmists like AOC, Greta Thunberg and their ilk are the problem. They have been proven wrong time and time again.

@NancySinatra The question is, what is wrong with YOU! Universal health care = Government-run health care. Name me one thing run by the government that is worth two 💩💩. I think you need to go live in a socialist country for a while and see if your opinion changes

@HazelMoore32 When they stop asking stupid questions, he’ll stop calling them stupid. No one is trying to stop him bc it’s warranted. None of you said anything when Biden did it, why is that?

[sbaswell @sbaswell]

@ML3democrats Your X handle says it all 🙄

[sbaswell @sbaswell]

@RepJohnLarson @RepRaskin True Americans stand with the president. You know, maybe you’d feel more at home in Russia or China🤔. I’m sure they’d take you, you should think about it.

[sbaswell @sbaswell]

@leanpockets @epaleezeldin I’m laughing out loud . You should learn to think critically and form a coherent argument before you post. You sound like a bubble-gum chewing 12-year old who’s mad she didn’t get asked to the 8th grade dance 🤣

[sbaswell @sbaswell]

@ChrisDJackson @JoeBiden All depends on what you’re embarrassed by. Trump supporters WERE DAILY EMBARRASSED by Biden’s incompetence, tripping UP stairs, etc. We ARE NOT embarrassed by a no-nonsense president who isn’t afraid to use American might to call the bluff of terrorists. Best president ever.

[sbaswell @sbaswell]

@AdamKinzinger Your hatred for President Trump and your desire to see him fail prevents you from seeing facts, and it makes you look unserious, if not just simply low-IQ. We have demolished them militarily, and how long the straight is closed doesn’t matter bc we don’t depend on it.

[sbaswell @sbaswell]

@Peg33 Then YOU, are blind. He has personally called family members of people killed by illegals who shouldn’t have been here in the first place, multiple people killed in other shootings, recognized them in his addresses to the nation. You see what you want to see #confirmationbias

@DavidLimbaugh Spot on, @DavidLimbaugh

The following comment is not intended to cause further strife between evangelicals and Catholics, but the opposite: I think there's been an effort to smear Israel-supporting evangelicals by flippantly calling them "Dispensationalists," meaning, essentially, that they are knuckle-dragging heretics.

Certain people use the label pejoratively to suggest that we Israel-supporting evangelicals are Dispensationalists who want to hasten the End Times and so are willing to support policies aimed at doing so, even if against the interests of the US.

A couple of points on that. Not all people who believe that the Abrahamic Covenant land promise was Israel-specific and is eternal (and still in force) are Dispensationalists. I, for one, firmly believe the land promise portion of the Abrahamic Covenant is Israel specific and still in force. But I don't consider myself a Dispensaitonalist, which involves more issues.

In fact, the late, revered John MacArthur was not a dispensationalist but did believe the land promise is to Israel specifically and for that purpose the church did not replace Israel. If I remember correctly, he said that sound, intellectually honest exegesis doesn't lead to that conclusion.

But a more important point is this: I would wager that the overwhelming majority of Bible-believing evangelicals do not believe we should try to pro-actively hasten the End Times. We are not to know the time of the Great Tribulation, etc. We are not to concern ourselves with the "when."

Because we believe in God's sovereignty (which is not incompatible with free will, in my opinion) and because we believe it is not for us to know when the End Times will occur, we should definitely not proactively try to usher it in. I am sure there are some who believe we should but I would think they are quite on the fringe.

I admit that I support Israel for theological reasons. I believe God's Covenant with Israel as to the land is permanent and I believe He meant what He said that those who bless Israel will be blessed and those who curse Israel will be cursed. I also support Israel as a strong ally for a host of other reasons.

My theological support for Israel does not mean I would subordinate the interests of the US to those of Israel and it does not exempt Israel or immunize it from criticism.

I also don't expect others to share my belief or support Israel because of my theological beliefs about it. But I have a right to allow my theological beliefs and my overall Christian worldview to inform my policy positions, just like everyone has a right to do the same with their own worldview.

So please don't fall for the notion that all evangelical supporters of Israel are Dispensationlists and especially that they want to hasten the End Times. None in my orbit want to do that. They may say, "I hope Jesus returns soon," but they don't go further and say, "So let's do everything we can to facilitate that." That would be such a presumptuous and biblically disobedient posture.

I think history and scripture support my view that Israel is the apple of God's eye. As I and others have written, no nation in history has been dispersed for more than 5 or so generations and retained its ethnic identity and language, but Israel did. It not only retained it but in 1948, some 1900 years after it was routed by Rome in 70 AD it came back, miraculously, to the land. God had his hand in that. Then Israel, against all odds, won two wars against multiple surrounding nations committed to its destruction and extinction. We can go on and on-looking at the amazing things the Jewish people have done in that little nation and how advanced they are -- and how sophisticated they are and how amazing their intelligence and military forces are -- consider the beepers (otherworldly). Their success has by no means been all because the US has supported her, though our support has been very important.

So, bottom line, believe what you want about Israel. Believe the church replaced Israel for all purposes, but I don't. I believe the Bible is clear that when God promised Abraham He would bless all nations through him he meant Jews and Gentiles alike and he was referring to the Gospel -- way back in Genesis. So yes, certain promises in the Abrahamic Covenant do extend to Gentiles. But not the land promise. And from a Christian standpoint (again in my view, because by no means do I speak for all evangelicals) God isn't done with the Jewish people in any way. Read Romans 11. They are the vine and we are the branches grafted in.

You can believe if you wish that we Israel-supporting evangelicals are all sitting around reading the Scofield Bible. I've never read it. Don't let the trouble-makers scare you into thinking Israel-supporting evangelicals are up to no good and would ever subordinate the interests of the US for Israel. Don't believe they would hasten the End Times. The trouble-makers just want to make you think we're crazy and reckless to further alienate us against Israel, and to divide us for other reasons. Not true. Do with this what you will, but I'm trying to lay this out as honestly as I can. The entire field of dispensationalism is more complex and I see no reason to go into that, especially since I don't consider myself one.

Thank me for my attention to these matters.

@glenn_tunes As an American let me explain something to everyone in Norway. We see it as the same🤷‍♂️. It’s ok, we don’t need you now, and one day when you need us, maybe we won’t be there for you🤷‍♂️.
