One: It’s measured by its eternal longevity. If we are born again Christians, we are going to live forever; the body dies, but the soul, the part of you that is made in the image of God, will never die. It’s that part of you that has:

• Understanding and wisdom Proverbs 9:10; 2 Timothy 3:7
• Judgment of what’s good and bad involving our will. James 1:19, 5:12
• Emotion like love and fear. Proverbs 1:7; Isaiah 11:2
• It has memory—the mental capacity for storing up knowledge of ideas and events. Proverbs 10:7

Two: The value of our souls are measured by God’s concern for saving it. God is “not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance” (2 Peter 3:9). “God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:8
 
Three: The value of our soul is measured by the price Jesus Christ paid for its redemption. God’s word says, “knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.” 1 Peter 1:18-19

Yes, God sees our souls as the most valuable thing in the world, so valuable that He sent His only Son to the cross to suffer and die so that our souls may be saved. Our soul is valuable because it is eternal—it is forever. 

What are you doing with your soul?

Are you gambling taking a chance with it? Repent of your sins acknowledge them and turn from them to Christ; do it now. We are all sinners in need of repentance and forgiveness. Only trusting and living for Jesus can we be saved; see 2 min video here

​4-29-19, Canada Free Press* -- Canada’s liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is a Trust Fund child who has never had to give a moment’s thought to anyone, or anything else but himself self-identifying as a ‘feminist.’ He’s leading the noble nation called Canada into the graveyard.
 
According to a report from the Canadian government, in ten months in 2018 doctors killed 2600+ people by lethal injection suicide. (National Review, here) Canada also has abortion without limits; nothing protecting a baby born alive after a botched abortion. In 2013 to 2018 766 babies were born alive after botched late-term abortions and presumably left to die. Pro-lifers are worried that Canada will follow America’s Sen. Jeff Merkley in killing human babies, but saving kittens [here].

Average Canadians believe that all human beings have an inherent right to life, regardless of age, degree of maturity, physical or mental capabilities, even though their Prime Minister and Parliament don’t. *Excerpted full report here

Canadian Doctors Get Ready for Child Euthanasia - National Review
11-5-18, Now that blithe assurance is poised to become inoperable, as Canada appears on the verge of allowing children to be euthanized.

Children are being euthanized in Belgium - The Washington Post
Aug 6, 2018 - Euthanasia for children in Belgium is no longer just a theory. In 2014, that country amended its law on euthanasia, authorizing doctors to terminate the life of a child, at any age, who makes the request. For a year after the law passed, no one acted on it. However, between Jan 1, 2016 and Dec 31, 2017  euthanasia for children in Belgium has become a reality as Belgian physicians gave lethal injections to three children under 18. More here and here

Matthew 10:14-15; Mark 6:11 ; Luke 5:1-6, Acts 13:50-52

​3-31-19, * -- Some folks are determined to scoff and reject the good news message of salvation only possible in the Lord Jesus Christ [John 14:6]. There are many reasons why this is true, but they all boil down to one truth — Satan has poisoned and hardened their hearts against God's love [Luke 10:28, Galatians 3:12] and His Kingdom.

Jesus instructed us not to keep beating our heads against the wall that the evil one has erected in the heart of someone. God calls us to move on in our efforts to reach others. If we are in the same family, work place, office or neighborhood and have unavoidable regular proximity to them without the possibility of 'moving on,' then we are called to live our faith before them and pray that our behaviors will demonstrate our faith and win them before the day of Christ.

Today's Prayer: Father, please give me wisdom to know the best way to share the message of Jesus with all those who have ears to hear. I recognize that only You can break down the barriers Satan erects in the hearts of those who reject your message. Help me know when it is best to move on. In the lives of those near and dear to me, please use my daily faithfulness as one of the influences used to win their hearts for Jesus, in whose name I pray. Amen.

4-29-19, * -- Islamic terrorists traditionally massacre Christians and Jews. Their new tactic for explanation is it’s ‘retaliation!’ Only problem there's only been one white guy in New Zealand THIS year who killed 50 Muslims ... what's the excuse for the decades of prior slaughters?

1. On Easter Sunday, April 21, 2019 they massacred over 300 people in a series of bombings that rocked Sri Lanka. Three of the most lethal bombings took place in packed churches celebrating the resurrection of the Christian Messiah, Jesus Christ. 
2. In 2017 in Egypt, Islamic terrorists bombed  two Coptic Christian churches during Palm Sunday church service that inaugurates Easter week, leaving 50 dead and 120 injured Christians. Egypt: Isis claims responsibility for bombing two Coptic church bombings that come following months of attacks on Egypt’s Coptic minority.
3. In 2015 on the shores of Libya 21 Christians were slaughtered in “revenge” for two Coptic women who, back in 2010 [and according to Islamic propaganda], were compelled by Egypt’s Coptic Orthodox Church to recant their conversion to Islam and return to Christianity.
4. In 2010 bombing of Our Lady of Salvation Church in Iraq retaliation for those same two Coptic women [#3] in Egypt. 

In both the Sri Lankan and Egyptian examples, the Islamic State [ISIS], who claimed responsibility for both attacks, cited “grievances” to justify their terrorism, which they apparently seek to portray as “retaliation.” They claimed the Sri Lanka massacre was in retaliation for the March 2019 attack in Christchurch New Zealand where 50 Muslims were killed in two mosques.

• What exactly do brown Sri Lankan Christians have to do with a ONE white terrorist in New Zealand? - NOTHING
• What did the Iraqi Christians of Our Lady Church, or the one decapitated Ghanaian, have to do with the imagined crimes of the Coptic Church? - NOTHING

This goes back to the Middle Ages, when Muslims such as Saladin “retaliated” against European Crusaders by crucifying Coptic Christians in Egypt and tarring their churches (as documented in Adel Gundy’s forthcoming book, A Sword Over the Nile). 

Such is the nature of Islamic propaganda and projection—always accusing others of what Islamists habitually do. The fact is, secular Western actions that have absolutely nothing to do with Christianity are regularly cited by Muslims who vent their wrath on the vulnerable Christian minorities for the fundamental reason they hate all non-Muslims. -- *Excerpted and adapted full report from Raymond Ibrahim here ​

A look at attacks on houses of worship over last decade - No Retaliation just pure wicked hatred
apnews.com/c0aa8edf7f724a74bcb02d3f22e8f0d8
3-15-19, Houses of worship around the world, a place of reflection and peace, have been targeted for attack by Islamic extremists. A list from over the last decade:

1. July 16, 2010: Jundallah group kills 27 and injures 270 after it carries out a double suicide bombing against another Shiite mosque in southeastern Iran.
2. Oct. 31, 2010: Al-Qaida in Iraq militants attack Our Lady of Salvation Catholic Church in Baghdad during Sunday night mass, killing 58 people in the deadliest assault targeting Christians since the 2003 U.S.-led invasion there. Al-Qaida in Iraq later became the Islamic State group. More here

In August 2014 a 32 ft deep - 2.5 acre lake appeared in drought stricken Tunisia. It's not understood how it happened; but there are theories:

1. a minor earthquake could have fractured and underground aquifer, allowing water to well up to the surface, but no aquifer has been found.
2. simply rainwater that collected in the canyon, although the lake is thought to have formed in the middle of a drought and the area receives very little rainfall.

The lake remains a mystery, but most locals believe that the lake was created by supernatural means, as a miraculous blessing to the people eking out a living here in the unforgiving terrain.

However, the clear, crystalline blue waters of the lake is not being replenished and have slowly turned to a muddy green due to a bloom of algae, which could be potentially poisonous. The presence of so much algae means the blessing could become a cesspool of bacteria and disease.

In November 2014 another mysterious lake appeared in Nigeria, the Ameke Nanchi in Enugu State. It's seen as a place of magical healing by locals. Allegedly, on November 11, 2014, local herdsmen heard a booming explosion and when they went to investigate the source they found that water inexplicably gushing from the ground. The herdsmen hailed the sight as a miracle prophesized by local legends and collected some of the water, which they reportedly brought to a blind friend who was allegedly healed by it. Meanwhile the lake grew in size until it had reached around 550 feet in diameter. It's still not understood exactly what caused the water to well up or what the origin to the alleged explosion could have been. [..snip]
The Prime Minister of Ameke-Nachi, Chief Dominic Onuigbo, said the lake appeared three times in the past 80 years, always in the driest, hottest times. [,,]
However, as time passed the water has become filthy, with 1000s of people urinating and defecating on its shores making it more or less a disease soup. It's feared an epidemic could be caused by people contracting a disease such as cholera, among many others, and carrying it back to one of the many far-flung locales they come from. The pool is also a very attractive breeding ground for mosquitos, and could potentially be ground zero for a horrific malaria outbreak. Time will tell if this lake turns out to be one of healing or one of death.  ​More here

Daniel 1:6-7, 11-16

The Bible is an authoritative and reliable source of dietary information that conveys numerous principles that - if followed - will fortify our immune system and help protect us against disease. Many don’t realize that the Lord's dietary laws for good health in the Old Testament still apply in the New. A common false assumption is that God meant His dietary laws only for ancient Israel - not so - the following principles are meant for all mankind's good health:

1. Avoid pork and shellfish (Leviticus 11:4-44)
2. Avoid animal fat and blood (Leviticus 3:17)
3. Thirty percent of our calories should come from good healthy fats: The best sources include fish and unsaturated plant-based fat like olive oil, coconut oil, real butter and milk. (Genesis 18:8; Deuteronomy 8:8)
4. Cheese is high in protein and loaded with calcium. (1 Samuel 17:17-18)
5. Eat whole grains - Bread, made from wheat, barley or millet. (John 6:35; Acts 4:12)
6. Legumes [beans]  and vegetables: Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego (Daniel 1:11-16, 3:30) Their diet caused them to be far smarter and healthier than the kings men.
7. Fruits: Grapes, figs, all fruits. “Everywhere the Hebrew people traveled, they included fruit & vegetables in their diet.” (Numbers 13:23) Even the Lord Jesus liked fruit – apparently figs too! Mark 11:13

Putin traveled across seven time zones for the meeting, relieving Kim of the 12,000-mile train journey to Moscow made by his father.
Since the failure of Kim’s February summit with President Trump in Vietnam, Kim is eager to find another nation willing to help him evade UN sanctions that's crippling his economy. At his February 2019 summit with Pres Trump, Kim declined to remove all his nuclear weapons causing the summit to abruptly end.

5/1/19 Issue Trumpet Magazine *-- So much scientific research today is done under the relatively modern assumption that God does not exist — that science is incompatible with God and with the Bible. Even those scientists who do harbor some belief in God cast those beliefs aside once they enter the office at work.

However, undeniable proofs of the existence of Israel’s and Judah’s biblical kings, enemies, events and places have been uncovered by archaeology verifying the factual historical Biblical records. 

The personal seal impression of King Hezekiah was found during excavations on Jerusalem’s Ophel mound. The tiny stamped clay piece reads: “Belonging to Hezekiah, [son of] Ahaz, king of Judah.” Gold coins have also been found plus beads, jugs and house keys as well as a shield that belonged to a Roman soldier. The most significant finding was a coin dated to 35 BC, which was minted in Acre on the occasion of the arrival of Cleopatra and Marc Antony. There is a total of 12 of these coins. [2 Chronicles 31:20]

King David’s the Tel Dan Stele [1], called the “victory stone,” was found in 1993. The ninth-century b.c. stele inscription contains a phrase that reads: “I killed [Ahaz]yahu son of [Joram kin]g of the house of David.” This was not only a reference to David, but an established kingly line that descended from him. (This inscription also depicted the events of 2 Kings 8:28-29, which led to the deaths of kings Ahaziah and Joram.) 

These Israelite kings were the contemporaries of many leaders in other regions described accurately in the Bible, likewise verified through archaeology. Among them are the Syrian kings Hadadezer, Ben-hadad, Hazael and Rezin who was a king of Damascene Syria, who united with Pekah king of Israel to invade Judah in 742 BC [2 Kings 15:1-38,37; 16:5-10; Isaiah 7:1]. Also, the Babylonian kings Nebuchadnezzar [2 Kings 24:10] and Belshazzar [Daniel 5:1] and Persian king Cyrus [2 Chron 36:22; Ezra 6:3; Isaiah 44:28; Daniel 1:21] so many more …

There is the famous tunnel of Hezekiah (2 Chronicles 32:3-4, 30; 2 Kings 20:20). [2] This impressive tunnel has been found, snaking 1,750 feet deep in the bedrock of Jerusalem.

The Bible describes many cities that have been found and confirmed through archaeology. Israelite cities such as Samaria, Megiddo, Hazor, Shechem, Dan, Beth Shean, Jericho, Gezer and Shiloh. Judean cities like Jerusalem, Hebron, Lachish and Beersheba. The five Philistine cities of Gath, Ashdod, Ashkelon, Ekron and Gaza. Cities of: Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Persia; literally dozens of cities recorded in the Bible that have been archaeologically discovered with proof of what happened in them.

The Hittite civilization is often mentioned in scripture; describing Abraham burying his wife in land purchased from Hittite merchants. [Genesis 23:14-20] The Hittites were allied with the king of Israel in fending off the Syrian Empire. Yet until the 20th century, no evidence of the Hittite civilization had been uncovered. Historians said it probably never existed, and even if it did, it couldn’t have been a very strong regional power. However, in 1906 an immense, sprawling fortified city found in modern-day Turkey [3] was confirmed to have been the Hittite capital, Hattusha. [Genesis 23:5, 7, 10, 16, 18]

Consider what this means for your life; the Bible is a truthful record of all these historical, geographical and cultural details of people places and things. This is undeniable evidence that it is also accurate and trustworthy regarding the plans, expectations and commands of its Author our Creator = almighty God. That’s a lot for a supposedly “fallacious” book to get right. You can prove the Bible; God's word is true and we ought you to live by it.

Isaiah 5:20-21; Matthew 24:24

4-23-19, * -- Currently the nations are redefining evil as good [Isaiah 5:20]. Worldwide all forms of immorality are common; such as killing the unborn in abortion, homosexuality, idolatry, all forms of sexual sin, blasphemy in false religions and slaughter of innocent civilians by terrorists. Jesus said the last days would be as in the days of Noah and Lot, so it is. [Luke 17:26-29]

In our modern world there are many false religions. One of the most perverse is Islam that started in 610 AD by Mohammad; who may have been mentally deranged. His demonic message won over a handful of followers, but gained in popularity … then he died in 632 AD. Approximately 1501 AD the Muslim community split in two factions Shiite and Sunni; today their primary locations: Shiites in Iran - the Sunni Turkey. [Daniel 8:5-11]
​
Islam began as a doctrine of destruction and conquer with the slaughter of Jews and all who disagreed or mocked its twisted view of God [who they call Allah] and scripture; it has not changed. Although the Holy Bible speaks of war that Israel fought against her enemies and a future war against ‘the beast’ [Revelation 13:4], the Islamic book called the  Koran’s verses of killing and war are open ended and have a present historical context [1]. Unlike the Bible's message of love, hope & life; the Koran has no hope only killing and death.

In Christianity we watch and pray for the HARPAZO or the snatching away of the Church when our Lord Jesus returns for us. We see end time prophecies being fulfilled and apostasy of believers [Hebrews 6:4-6; Rev 2:45] just as prophesied. [2 Thessalonians 2:1-4, 7-9, 10-12]

The world is growing ripe for a coming New World Order and the indoctrination of a coming One World Religion – many foolish ‘churches’ have accepted a blending of Christ and Islam calling it Chrislam – abomination! What will become of Islam in the future? Will she continue her rampage of conquest and destruction? Will world leaders continue to protect and defend the Islamic onslaught?

Conclusion: Islam claims that their god is the same as the one True God of the Bible, Jehovah or Yahweh. One is a god of war [1], murder, pillaging and pedophilia while Yahweh is THE GOD of love Who provides a way for all mankind to be saved from the wrath to come. If you don’t know the Lord Jesus Christ, repent and trust Him; God is calling you.

TILL WE MEET AT JESUS FEET.

Europe wildfires: Norway police evacuate hundreds fires way above average this early in the year
4-24-19, BBC -- In Norway emergency services try to extinguish forest fires raging in the south of the country as 100s of homes evacuated in the vicinity of the town of Sokndal. Wildfires have been raging since Tuesday, 4/24/19. Police say the fires are still out of control. April is very early for forest fires in Norway, and experts have warned of a dramatic increase across the continent. Wildfires are in Sweden, Germany, Norway and the UK. ​Norway's minister for public safety, Ingvil Smines Tybring-Gjedde said the number of fires this year is higher than the average from the last 10 years. Last year only 60,000 acres burned this year so far 445,000 acres. Officials report fires human caused.  ​More here

However, Seattle is a sanctuary city, but the court there has a higher asylum denial rate than the court in Tacoma, Washington.

4-24-19, * --  In 2002, an American from New Jersey, Shmuel Waldman was shot while boarding a bus in Israel by an Islamic terrorist, Said Ramadan. Ramadan also killed 2 people and left 40 injured. Shmuel’s leg was blown apart causing the need for multiple surgeries. The killer was a so called “police officer” working for the terrorists who run the Islamic Palestinian Authority [PA] in the Jewish state of Israel. The Islamic terror group, Hamas in Gaza, Israel considers Ramadan a hero.

Mr Waldman and other victims of terrorism filed a lawsuit against the terrorist group that has been funded by American taxpayers. Under the Anti-terrorism Clarification Act (ATCA) [1] the PA accepting security assistance from its "police force" and funding terrorism, places itself in jeopardy of lawsuits from its victims. Therefore, in 2018 the PA sent the US a letter informing that it would no longer accept any aid from the US; as it exposes it to lawsuits. However, the letter suggested that it might revisit its refusal if the law were changed. Six Democrat Senators have set out to honor the terrorists demand and change the ATCA law, using the false claim of a humanitarian disaster to continue giving the killers money; Feinstein, Coons, Merkely, VanHollen, Leahy and Masto:

1. Senator Chris Coons urged that, “It is critical that we restore lifesaving aid to the West Bank and Gaza.”
2. Senator Jeff Merkley insisted that, “Aid to innocent civilians should not be caught up in broader geopolitical battles...”
3. Feinstein claims that Trump is preventing “clean water” and “health care” aid. Feinstein hates “assault rifles” when law abiding Americans have them, not when Islamic terrorists do and use them against innocent Israelis and tourists. AND she wants American Taxpayers to fund the bill!

The real agenda revealed by the Democrats resolution to change the law shows that it’s not about humanitarian aid, but about restoring funding to the Islamic terrorists of the Palestinian Authority.  It’s about allowing terrorists to get away with murder.

Isaiah 46:9-11; Jeremiah 6:11-14
​
4-14-19, * -- Throughout scripture the Lord provides us with prophecies regarding Israel, the rapture and His Second Coming. The volume of space the Lord has given to future things in the Bible surely reveals to us its great importance. Studying and discussing these topics brings great joy and peace to our lives; here’s why:

1. Prophecy Reminds Us that God is Sovereign God tells us His purpose for revealing events before they happen. 1 Chron 29:11-12; Psalm 90:2; 97:9; Jeremiah 32:27; Hebrews 4:13; 
2. Prophecy Assures us that God will Punish Evil - Numerous passages in the Old Testament speak of a future “day of the Lord” a time when God pours out His wrath on sinful humanity and reaches its climax with Jesus’ return when He will deal with the overt wickedness of our day. Isa.13:9-13; Joel 2:1-11, 30-32; Zeph 1:14-18; Psalm 37:1-2, 3-15
3. The Fulfillment of Prophecy Strengthens our Faith - The reemergence of Israel in the past seventy years in fulfillment of the promise God gave to the prophet Ezekiel in chapters 36:1, 37:28.
4. Consoles us in the Midst of Loss and Despair - Life in this fallen world provides many reasons for despair besides the loss of a loved one. God’s love [John 3:16], promises and His Good News Gospel of the second coming of the Lord Jesus comforts us knowing we’ll share a joyous existence after this life.  Paul wrote that Christ “abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the Gospel.” (2 Tim. 1:10; 1 Cor. 15:17-19)
5. Prophecy Leads to a Two-World Perspective - The more we immerse our minds in the specifics of eternity, the more we live in the two-world perspective of 2 Corinthians 4:17-18, “For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen, but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient [temporary], but the things that are unseen are eternal.”

 
Jesus assures us this world is not all we have or will have; assuring us that He will return [1Thessalonians 4:16-17; Titus 2:13] to take us home to the place He is preparing for us. John 14:2
 
Even so come, Lord Jesus. Revelation 22:20

3-31-19,  Victor Davis Hanson -- Special counsel Robert Mueller’s 674-day, $30 million investigation failed to find the original goal of its mandate – evidence of a criminal conspiracy between the Trump presidential campaign and the Russian government to sway the 2016 election. When thousands of once-sealed government documents in the Russia collusion hoax are released in unredacted form, those who eagerly assumed the role of the hunters may become the hunted, due to their own zealous violation of the nation’s trust and  laws. Those “who cried the loudest about leaking, collusion, lying and obstruction are themselves soon very likely to be accused of just those crimes; I count eight or nine so far:

1. James Comey: Former FBI director falsely testified that the Steele dossier was not the main basis for obtaining FISA court warrants. On at least 245 occasions, Comey swore under oath that he either did not know, or could not remember, when asked direct questions about his conduct at the FBI. He likely lied when he testified that he did not conclude his assessment of the Clinton illegal email use before he had even interviewed Clinton, an assertion contradicted by his own written report. I guess his credo and modus operandi are reflected in the subtitle of his recent autobiography A Higher Loyalty: “Truth, Lies, and Leadership.”
2. Andrew McCabe: Former FBI deputy director currently is under criminal referral for lying to federal investigators about leaking to the media. He and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein each have accused each other of not telling the whole truth about their shared caper of trying to force President Trump out of office by invoking the 25th Amendment. [Peter Strzok should be in here somewhere.--Ed.]
3. James Clapper: Former director of national intelligence has admitted to lying under oath to Congress – and since lied about his earlier admission of that lying. His recent sworn congressional testimony of not having leaked information about the Steele dossier to the media is again likely to be untrue, given that Clapper had admitted to speaking to CNN’s Jake Tapper about the dossier’s contents. CNN, remember, would in turn go on to hire the mendacious Clapper as an analyst. And once on air, Clapper would insist that Trump was both a Russian asset and thus guilty of collusion crimes greater than those of Watergate. Lies. All lies.
4. John Brennan: Former CIA director has admitted to lying under oath to Congress on two occasions. He may well face further legal exposure. When he lost his security clearance, he repeatedly lied that Trump was guilty of collusion, however that non-crime is defined. And as the Mueller probe wound down, Brennan with pseudo-authority and trumped-up hints of phony access to secret intelligence sources deceitfully assured the nation that Trump within days would face indictment – perhaps along with his family members.
5. Huma Abedin & Cheryl Mills: Mrs Clinton's aides likely also lied to FBI investigators when they claimed they had no knowledge while working at the State Dept that their boss was using an illegal private email server. In fact, they had read her communications on it and actually inquired about its efficacy.
6. Samantha Power: Former UN ambassador in her last year in office requested on more than 260 occasions to unmask names of Americans monitored by the government. Yet Power later claimed that most of these requests were not made by her. And yet she either does not know or does not cite who exactly used her name to make such requests during the election cycle. In any case, no one has come forward to admit to the improper use of Power’s name to request the hundreds of unmaskings.
7. Susan Rice: Former Obama national security adviser could have made a number of unmasking requests in Power’s name, although she initially denied making any requests in her own name – a lie she immediately amended. Rice, remember, repeatedly lied on national television about the cause and origins of the Benghazi attack, denied there were cash payments for hostages in the Iran deal, misled about the conduct of Beau Bergdahl, and prevaricated over the existence and destruction of weapons of mass destruction in Syria.
8. Bruce Ohr: Former deputy attorney general did not tell the truth on a federal written disclosure required by law when he omitted the key fact that his wife Nellie worked on Christopher Steele’s Fusion GPS dossier. Ohr’s testimony that he completely briefed key FBI officials on the dossier in July or August 2016 is not compatible to what former FBI attorney Lisa Page has testified to concerning the dates of her own knowledge of the Steele material.

Then there were violations and other law breaking in the form of:

1. Lying and leaking when many of the names unmasked by requests from Samantha Power and Susan Rice were leaked illegally to the media.
2. Obstruction of justice - A number of FBI and Dept of Justice high ranking employees such as James Comey, Andrew McCabe, Rod Rosenstein, and Sally Yates all signed off on FISA warrants to surveille Carter Page without apprising the courts that they knew that their chief evidence, the Steele Dossier, was unverified, was paid for by Hillary Clinton, and was used in circular fashion as the basis for news accounts presented to the court.
3. Conflict of interest - Andrew McCabe never should have been in charge of the FBI investigation of Hillary Clinton, given that just months earlier his wife had been the recipient of $675,000 in campaign cash donated by Clinton and Democratic Party-affiliated political action committees. Rod Rosenstein never should have been appointed acting attorney general in charge of oversight of the Mueller investigation. He knew Mueller well. In circular fashion, he had drafted the rationale to fire Comey that had prompted the Mueller’s appointment. He had signed off on a FISA warrant request without apprising the court of the true nature of the Steele dossier’s origins and nature. Robert Mueller did not need to appoint a legal team inordinately packed with Democrats, that included attorneys who had been either donors to the Clinton campaign, or had been attorneys for Clinton aides, or had defended the Clinton Foundation.

How bad does border have to be for Democrats to act?
4-1-19, Democrats in Congress will not admit the southern border is an emergency. As they resisted Pres Trump's efforts to stem the flow of illegal migrants across the U.S.-Mexico border, many Democrats made the point that fewer migrants are coming today than years ago, during the Bill Clinton and George W. Bush presidencies. The implication was that today's situation cannot be an emergency, because it used to be worse. That doesn't make sense, of course. 

Democrats to Allow Imprisoned People To Vote
4-23-19, Sen. Bernie Sanders, was asked if he favors allowing people in prison to vote, including killers like the Boston marathon bomber [Dzhokhar Tsarnaev a naturalized citizen in 2012; Islamic terrorist from Chechnya who was convicted of planting pressure cooker bombs at the Boston Marathon on April 15, 2013.] Sanders responded: “If somebody commits a serious crime, sexual assault, murder, they're going to be punished. … But I think the right to vote is inherent to our democracy. Yes, even for terrible people.”

Sen. Ms Kamala Harris, D-Calif. was also asked. She said: “I think we should have that conversation.”

Horrors perpetrated on American Indians by the US Government - the people were promised everything and got nothing but misery. The current batch of Democrats are promising everything today ... what will we get if they're elected? here

Islamic Jihad and the Media in an Age of Delusion 
4-1-19, AmerThinker - The BBC reported another horrible news story from London: a knifeman went on a stabbing spree of defenseless civilians/pedestrians in London. The event reveals what has happened in our age of anti-reality and delusion. Reportedly the perp didn't converse with the victims or rob them ... just stabbed them. Authorities concluded he had mental illness ... this is the diagnosis for the current batch of Islamic terrorists...
