"Washington, in an act of incredible stupidity, has driven a dagger through the heart of the US dollar as world reserve currency, thus ending Washington’s ability to pay its bills by printing money. The dagger was the Biden regime’s Russian and other sanctions and the seizure of Russia’s central bank deposits. This finally convinced the rest of the world that holding dollar balances exposed a country to the risk of expropriation or control by Washington.
"Sooner or later the US dollar’s exchange value will fall, setting off high inflation in the US that is outside the control of the central bank. American living standards will fall, and the US will begin to look like India in 1900. The hatred...that Democrats have taught to [minorities] will result in internal war. The only question is whether...Americans will have been so indoctrinated with their guilt that they are unable to defend themselves."
-- Dr. Paul Craig Roberts – Chairman of the Institute for Political Economy, US economist and ex-Assistant Secretary of the Treasury in the Reagan administration, a member of the Cold War Committee on the Present Danger.
"When a man sees himself to be completely lost and ruined, covered with the defilement of sin, with no part free from pollution; when he disclaims all righteousness of his own and pleads guilty before the Lord, then he is clean through the blood of Jesus and the grace of God.
"Hidden, unfelt, unconfessed iniquity is the true leprosy of the soul; but when sin is seen and felt, it has received its deathblow, and the Lord looks with eyes of mercy upon the afflicted soul. Nothing is more deadly than self-righteousness or more hopeful than contrition. We must confess that we are “nothing else but sin,” for no confession short of this will be the whole truth; and if the Holy Spirit is at work in us, convincing us of sin, there will be no difficulty about making such an acknowledgment—it will spring spontaneously from our lips."
Charles Spurgeon on Leviticus 13:13
Yesterday, February 24, was the projected, anticipated but classified D-Day attack on Iran by American air power. But it did not happen.
One possible reason: A week ago, self-described "jerk" Tucker Carlson had the courage to confront his friend Ambassador Mike Huckabee on definitions of Israel's claims to geographic territory. Huckabee insisted that the Bible gave today's secularized, anti-Biblical Israel all the land currently held, and Palestine, and more: all across those current Arab nations stretching from the Nile to the Euphrates.
Is this accurate Biblical theology? No.
Huckabee so angered the nations of the Islamic world that there will now be none of the necessary alliances President Trump needed to wage war against Shia Iran. Huckabee’s statement caused immediate, unified, diplomatic condemnation from many possible wartime allies, including Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Egypt.
Thank you, Tucker, for asking theological questions.
In Pete Hegseth’s world, generals and admirals are valued by their weight and muscle tone, not their seriousness in defending the Constitution. Personal loyalty to the president with a Ken or Barbie shine trumps courage, competence, and patriotism every day of the week.
Yet, these guys are not responsible for bad sewage design on an aircraft carrier, F-35s that are only operational 35% of the time, a slow, expensive, discombobulated logistics tail for every major American weapons system, or for US foreign policy founded on the nutty idea that we can borrow our way into permanent global dominance. They perpetuate it because, like their predecessors, they are not interested in how the system works, only in how it can work for them.
