I'm almost in AWE at the masterful level of deception James Talarico employs in this ridiculously viral interview on Jimmy Kimmel.
There is a VERY SUBTLE play getting run on Christians over and over. And once you see it, you can never unsee it.
Texans, you deserve to know the truth about what your state government is planning - WITHOUT YOUR APPROVAL.
This plan will cost you $100+ more on your yearly electric bills, make your property up for grabs via government condemnation and cost taxpayers up to $100 billion.
Big Tech is asking the state government for 4,000 more miles of electrical cables throughout the center of the state: funded by YOU for THEIR data centers.
The government is edging toward giving this sweetheart deal to them.
This is already ridiculous because Texas will have the MOST data centers by 2030, even though 93% of Texas is privately owned.
Maybe I’m old fashioned but I don’t think Texans should be paying for data centers they didn’t agree to fund.
In the end, it’s not about the power lines. It’s about who has control and who can make decisions with your tax dollars.
I had never seen this clip anywhere before. This guy is an actual, biblically defined heretic.
If you wonder why I have a bit more of an edge when I'm talking about James Talarico, this is why 👇
Speech from Senior Class President at Texas High School.
Our students increasingly are outspoken about their faith.
"When you are drowning in an ocean of stress, remember that your Savior walks on water."
Hear the crowd cheers.
Politics are important, but listen to me: Politics cannot fix what politics did not break.
And Mankind was broken long before any political system.
Only a return to Jesus Christ who can reach inside the chests of men and give them new and living hearts of love, worship, and humility can save any person, any family, and any society.
Christ is the only way out of the chaos.
Matthew 28:5-6
But the angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified. He is not here, for he has risen, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay.”

You are warmly invited to take a daily scripture break.
II Timothy 3 : 1-5,
“But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God - having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people."
When I encounter descriptions like this, I pause and spend some quality time meditating over the words. These passages above so accurately depict our broken world. The world calls good evil and evil good. (Isaiah 5:20) This is why the manipulation of language is so evil. We as Christians are charged to scour the scriptures - to learn and practice what is good and reject evil. Listed below are some scriptures that highlight what God defines as evil - not a popular message in our culture today. People don't want to be told what is permissible and what isn't, yet these scriptures elucidate the observable evil all around us.
Reference Scriptures:
I Cor 6: 9-10
I Tim 1:8-10
Gal 5:19-21
Ephesians 5:5
Hebrews 12:14
As we approach Good Friday, let's remember why Jesus went to the Cross - to provide redemption for humanity because it's impossible for us to earn it on our own. Redemption is a precious eternal gift. I Cor 6:19-20 says, "Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price.” The price was Jesus' Crucifixion, Death on the Cross & Resurrection.
Peace and be prepared.
Hello Senator Thune,
Let's expose what you're really doing with "reconciliation."
You announced it yesterday, eleven months after the House passed the SAVE America Act. You're not trying to pass this bill. You're trying to kill it in a way you can blame on process.
Here's how we know:
Reconciliation requires the Senate parliamentarian to rule that provisions are "budgetary." Citizenship verification is not budgetary. Photo ID mandates are not budgetary. The parliamentarian will gut the bill. Then you'll shrug and say "we tried." We see through you.
Meanwhile, you WON'T use the tools that actually work:
Rule XIX limits each senator to two speeches per legislative day. Keep the Senate in continuous session, file cloture daily, and the filibuster exhausts in ~12-20 days. You dismissed it as "complicated." Because if you tried and succeeded, you'd have to actually pass the bill.
Harry Reid nuked the filibuster in 2013 when he wanted results.
Mitch McConnell changed Senate rules THREE times and canceled the August recess.
Chuck Schumer used reconciliation within months on a 50-50 Senate.
You have 53 seats. You've changed nothing, canceled nothing, and waited eleven months.
Now let's talk donors:
• Goldman Sachs: $150K to you - top H-1B user
• Google: $75K - lobbies against E-Verify
• Meta: $72.5K - Zuckerberg's FWD[.]us pushes mass immigration
• Wells Fargo: $90K - banks undocumented immigrants
Same corporations sponsor Punchbowl News, where you sit for "Fly Out Days" which nobody watches except Congress staffers and K Street lobbyists who pays premium bucks for legislative intelligence. Their reporter then telegraphs to the audience the SAVE Act "will ultimately fail."
Corporate money flows to you AND to the outlet that frames your inaction as inevitable.
We see the loop.
You called grassroots anger a "paid influencer ecosystem." YOU are the paid influencer. You take the wrong side of a 80% issue because you are indistinguishable from a K Street mouthpiece, and an ineffective one to boot who won't bend the rules to get anything passed.
What we want:
1. Force a real talking filibuster.
2. Stop hiding behind process.
3. Pass the SAVE America Act.
YOU will become the reason that we will have our butts kicked in midterms. Not Candace Owens, not Nick Fuentes, not anyone else. You and you alone, and all because you want to make the 200 or so viewers of Punchbowl Fly Out Days happy. You're living in a K Street information bubble, addicted to the comforts and praises of lobbyists masquerading as journalists. You mistake the steak and martini dinners you get invited to as your own constituents.
You are not "moderate." The SAVE America Act has 98% support among Republicans. Name one other thing that has 98% support. You are an extreme minority who prides himself on being a calm leader, when in reality you are well in the running for the most ineffective Majority leader of all time.
Prove me wrong. Do the bare modicum of effort. Not symbolic. Actual effort. Cancel the recess. Get SAVE America Act passed.
