HALF-FULL REPORT 10/01/21

bible-reading

Stop complaining, roll up your sleeves, and join the effort to evangelize California.

Fifty-one percent of immigrants are open to abandoning their birth faith and joining an American Protestant denomination. That ciphers out to 15-million and growing.

What happens if the Evangelical is AWOL? That same 15-million become Godless socialists.

This secret terrifies the combined forces of government, media, tech, and the Davos globalist corporate elites. All those illegals can flip the script on the commies. Fast.

The DOD launched its purge of Christians to force the abandonment of faith or the paycheck. The FBI organized at least three complex, expensive, targeted stings to encourage local law enforcement to arrest Evangelicals. You can bet a box of donuts that the average FBI agent has yet to figure out the big picture. Otherwise, the honorable would resign if they understood that they are the new anti-God squad tasked to keep Protestant Churches down and replace the faithful with the new left.

The executive branch is frightening the entire country with significant effect to prevent evangelizing activities, especially in blue states. California and New York lead the way with criminalizing the conversion of immigrants to Protestant denominations via covid rules.

Folks, it is pretty simple. The entire globalist agenda prohibits American Protestants from approaching the hordes of immigrants and inviting them to join conservative churches. The global left fears the consequence of mass conversion. But the stars have aligned, and it is time to get off the couch and get to work.

Why Protestant churches? Because they know what to do, and nearly every other faith has walked off the field. The Mormons are showing negative growth for the first time. That, thanks to a particular Senator named Willard.

It's go time.

KEEPING YOUR SANITY XXIX

river-crossing-illegals I just had lunch today with one of the biggest donors to the Republican Party.  Actually, that’s the wrong tense for he is no longer, he’s stopped giving them a dime.  The more he explained why, the more steamed he got. Here’s what he said.

“Jack, I have completely lost it with these candy-asses.  And I don’t mean just those on Capitol Hill.  I mean those in governor’s mansions, specifically those in Austin and Phoenix.  Yes, I mean Governors Abbott and Ducey.  They’ve got to grow the stones for what it takes to shut this Democrat invasion of illegals down.

And this is what it takes:  to call out their states’ National Guard and state police to close their borders down with Mexico. Any federal judge’s injunction against this policy, any order whatever from any branch of the federal government to stop this and let the invasion continue is, by order of the governor to be ignored.

This is the absolute critical tipping point, because it will demonstrate the powerlessness of DC to order governors around…

THE COORDINATED ATTACK ON IVERMECTIN IS A CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY

bunk-vaccine-deathsJust as we saw with hydroxychloroquine last summer, government alphabet agencies, the medical industrial complex, and their willing accomplices in the media have recently made it clear that there is yet another safe, effective treatment for COVID-19 they wish to torpedo.

It’s the latest naughty word which will get you censored on social media and mocked and belittled by late-night “comedians”: Ivermectin.

The U.S. government, the media, and Big Pharma are all playing important roles in the deadly dystopian disinformation campaign against the drug.  Those engaged in this campaign are guilty of crimes against humanity.

A STUNNING MAJOR MEDIA ADMISSION OF THE 2020 ELECTION FRAUD

2thumbsup-trumpArguably the most prestigious newspaper in the English-speaking world is The Times of London.  As you can imagine, it is far from rabidly conservative.  So it should be a clarion call for the world that this headline story, written by prominent Times columnist Rod Liddle, appeared in last Sunday’s (9/26) Times:

So Trump Was Right: The Election Was Rigged. And Our Next One Will Be Too

Liddle is a flaming liberal and anti-Trump.  Yet he writes:

THE COLLAPSE OF BIDEN’S WORLD

No one’s paying attention, Joe
No one’s paying attention, Joe

Despite his vow to “build back better,” China is forcing all of Joe Biden’s moves. The Asian giant’s decision to pursue its own climate policy, consisting largely of more industrialization with green trimmings, effectively kills the Paris accords, so long a part of the progressive platform.  How could it not? Beijing produces more emissions than the EU and U.S. combined.

It’s turning out that the fate of large parts of the U.S. economy consequently depends not on regulatory actions in Washington but on bureaucratic decisions in China. The global world that Joe Biden had hoped to inherit is falling apart right under him, like a comedy car shedding its parts as it rattles down the road.

COWARDICE FROM THE PENTAGON TO THE WHITE HOUSE

COWARDS ALL
COWARDS ALL

In Stephen Sondheim’s Into The Woods, there’s a point in the story when things have gone terribly wrong for everyone. The characters respond by disavowing personal responsibility and telling everyone else that it’s “Your Fault.”

That song could have been the background music to the nauseating spectacle in the Senate Tuesday (9/28), when Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley, and head of U.S. Central Command Gen. Kenneth McKenzie testified before the Senate Armed Services Committee about the debacle in Afghanistan.

GREENIE ENERGY LEAVES EUROPE IN THE FREEZING COLD

freezing-euGreenie energy has been vaunted by politicians such as Barack Obama, Zhou Xiden, and virtually every European politician in power as progress itself, the way forward, the wave of the future.  Anyone who's got problems with it, as Obama smarmily assured, is "stuck in the past."

Turns out that's nonsense.  After going green and shutting down its coal, fossil fuel, fracking, and nuclear energy production, and feeling mighty virtuous for doing it, Europe is now going cold — freezing cold.  The region faces a bad winter ahead with energy shortages across the board.

It’s not even October yet, and here’s a headline (9/27: Record-Breaking Cold Sweeps Europe.

Seems green energy can do everything to make a lefty European feel good except produce the actual energy, even as Xiden is doing his darnedest to take America down that cliff.

Pinkerton: The Mask Comes Off in a Two-Tier Society Where There's One Rule for Elites and Another for the Rest of Us

I pointed out some time ago that Xiden would have a real problem with vaccine mandates imposed on blacks, since this group has a low vaccination percentage.  Black Lives Matter of NYC has revolted:

Black Lives Matter NYC Leader Promises "Uprising" Against City's "Racist" Vaccine Passports

Is Xiden merely amazingly incompetent, or is he actually trying to kill off Trump supporters?

FLASHBACK FRIDAY RIDING A YAK AT RANGDUM

yak-riding-at-rangdumRangdum Gompa, Zanskar, August 1993.  Ever ridden a yak?  Brandon did when was 10 at the Rangdum Tibetan Monastery or Gompa atop a small hill at 13,225 feet high in an extremely remote region of the Himalayas in India called Zanskar.  It was part of our Indian Tibet expedition which will be repeating next summer (2022) – and this time Brandon will be leading the expedition.  I’ll just be along for the ride.  (Glimpses of Our Breathtaking World #161 photo ©Jack Wheeler)

FISHING AT DAWN IN HA LONG BAY

ha-long-bayHa Long Bay near Haiphong, Vietman – meaning Descending Dragon – is a World Heritage Site as one of our planet’s great scenic wonders, with thousands of limestone karst rock pinnacles, towers, and islets.  The most beautiful time is dawn, peaceful and serene, with small fishing boats of local villagers out for the morning catch.  A few days aboard a comfortable junk cruising Ha Long will do wonders for you.

THE TIBETAN KINGDOM OF LO

This is one of the magical places we experience on our Himalaya Helicopter Expeditions. An independent kingdom for 650 years in the remote Mustang region of Nepal, it is one of the last places of traditional Tibetan culture on earth, unchanged for centuries. There are sky-caves here – apartment complexes carved out of vertical cliffs 2,000 years ago – Drok-pa nomads in the high pastures, spectacular sacred ceremonies, all in a mysteriously beautiful setting where the Himalayas meet the Tibetan Plateau. We’ll be here again next April. (Glimpses of Our Breathtaking World #86 Photo ©Jack Wheeler)

THE MOTHER LEATHERBACK

leatheback-turtleThe leatherneck sea turtle is the world’s largest turtle, weighing up to 1500 pounds. This female was about half that. They have an enormous range, all the way from the North Sea to South Africa in the Atlantic, spending their lives at sea eating jellyfish – except when a female comes ashore to her hatching beach and bury her clutch of eggs in the sand above high tide.

Dropping several dozen glistening white golfball-size eggs into a depression scooped out with her flippers, she covers them up with sand, and heads back to sea, never to see them again. More than two months later, the born hatchlings dig out of the sand and wiggle their way into the sea, where the lucky ones survive.

I was able to watch this mommy’s entire egg-birthing process at dawn on a remote beach in the West African country of Gabon. It was such a privilege to witness an act of elemental nature by such an extraordinary creature. (Glimpses of Our Breathtaking World #127 Photo ©Jack Wheeler)

THE SHERMAN TANK THAT’S STILL THERE

tank-at-tarawaThe horrifically heroic Battle of Tarawa was fought November 20-23, 1943, with the US Marines determined to take the entrenched Japanese – which they did, both sides suffering ghastly losses. The Marine amphibious force assaulted the Japanese garrison on the small island of Betio in Tarawa Atoll of the Gilbert Islands – now the country of Kirimati.

The spearhead of the assault was led by the Marine’s Charlie Company, 1st Corps Tank Battalion and its M4-A2 Shermans on what was codenamed Red Beach. One particular Sherman sank a few yards offshore and lies there to this day. It’s easy to wade out and clamber upon it, as these friends of mine did when I brought them there in 2016.

We hear a lot about “climate change” causing “the oceans to rise.” But as you can see, the sea level at Tarawa has been the same for the past 77 years. (Glimpses of Our Breathtaking World #124 Photo ©Jack Wheeler)

HALF-FULL REPORT 09/24/21

on-a-leashYou may have seen this meme before, but it’s here now as it explains every single one of the multiple disasters currently befalling our America.

It was Xi who carefully wove a web of blackmail around their puppet using his utterly corrupt drug-addict son, so that once installed in the Oval Office, the puppet would follow orders to unleash a cornucopia of catastrophes upon America – all with the unwavering support of key media/social media leaders and influencers on the Chicom payroll.

Yes, all this is treason.  The man inaugurated as President of the United States is a bona fide traitor to his country.  To what extent those in cahoots with him are knowing accomplices or merely useful idiots only time will tell.

What the coming chaos of the next few weeks will tell is whether the Xiden Presidency will survive or not.
