7-17-19, Essentially the International Monetary Fund (IMF) is warning that “global economies” will contract by $455 billion next year due to the ongoing trade conflict between the U.S., China, the EU and to a lesser extent Japan. The IMF is correct in part (the effect), incorrect in part (the cause), and mostly hypocritical. The Euro-minded IMF rails against the high value of the U.S. dollar, but simultaneously ignores the motives behind the intentional devaluation of currencies that are pegged against the dollar. ​The IMF has been at odds with U.S. President Trump over his use of tariffs to resolve trade imbalances, but its assessment that the dollar is overvalued is likely to give Trump more fodder for his frequent complaints that dollar strength is hampering U.S. exports. Trump has railed against European and Chinese policies that lead to what he calls a devaluation of the euro and other currencies against the dollar.  China and the EU have devalued their currency in an effort to block the impacts from President Trump and the ‘America First’ trade policy. Because those currencies are pegged against the dollar, the resulting effect is a rising dollar value. In essence, the globalist IMF is now blaming President Trump for having a strong economy that forces international competition to devalue their currency.

Donald Trump is the most transformative economic President in the last 75 years; the post-WWII  1947 Marshall Plan [2] was set up to allow Europe and Asia to place tariffs on exported American industrial products  (officially the European Recovery Program, ERP) . Those tariffs were used by the EU and Japan to rebuild their infrastructure after a devastating war. However, there was never a built in mechanism to end the tariffs hurting the USA…. until President Trump came along and said: “it’s over!”

The U.S. was a sucker to keep letting the process remain in place while we lost our manufacturing base to overseas incentives. The investment process from Wall Street (removal of Glass-Stegal) only made the process much more severe and faster. Wall Street was now investing in companies whose best bet (higher profit return) was to pour money overseas. This process created the “USA Rust Belt.”

Fast forward to 2017 through today, and President Trump is now engaged in a massive and multi-dimensional effort to re-balance the entire global wealth dynamic. By putting tariffs on foreign imports he has counter balanced the never-ending Marshal Plan trade program and demanded renegotiation(s). Trump’s goal is reciprocity; however, the EU and Asia, specifically China, don’t want to give up a decades-long multi-generational advantage. One could argue that China’s rise happened inside this period, and as a consequence they have no comprehension of an economic history without the institutional advantages. They’ve never competed with the U.S. under any terms of equivalence or fairness; they’ve only known the advantages. Combine that with the Chinese communist mindset and you get the extreme severity of their position.

***
​No-one, ever, could take on all these interests; the EU, Asia, World Bank, IMF, China, Russia, Iran, U.S. Congress, Democrats, Wall Street, Lobbyists, Hollywood, Corporate Media (foreign and domestic) and the ankle-biters in Never Trump -- all are/were aligned against Main Street USA and against President Trump. They say he’s only one outnumbered man; yet somehow, as unreal as it seems, he’s the one who appears to have them surrounded. Incredible. Lord knows we can’t spare this man. He fights!

Many believe God placed him for such a time as this; the Lord receives our prayers for him, his family and his staff.

Confused Dems Want to Oust President Trump - YET - They Approve the Trade Treaty USMCA
12-11-19, While the crazy Dems struggle trying to impeach Pres Trump - [are these Democrats bi-polar??] U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) reached on a deal over the U.S.-Mexico-Canada allowing a vote in Congress and it passed; but final details for the trade pact were still being ironed out. By approving the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), [replaced NAFTA] Pelosi helped Pres Trump fulfill yet another campaign promise - another case of “promises made, promises kept.” [Note: makes me think of God's strong delusion 2 Thessalonians 2:10-12]

12-7-19, Since that fateful day of 7 December 1941, America and its Allies in the Pacific experienced defeat across almost every front at a shocking speed. The defensive outposts in the Pacific crumbled before the Japanese juggernaut. From the White House to the Navy and Army war planners, a haunting question arose … how and when will we be able strike back? History would later record that the three fateful months, beginning in April and ending in June of 1942, would see the tide of war change in the favor of the United States and its beleaguered allies.

Adam Schiff [D-CA] and the Collapse of Democrat Integrity 
Democrat Party Integrity is being destroyed by Congressman Adam Schiff [D-CA] [and his cohorts]. He lied in his opening statement prior to the testimony of Acting Dir of Natl Intel Joseph Maguire. The nation has been subjected to partisan impeachment hearings orchestrated by Schiff. The process has been unfair to not only House Republicans, but also the target of their investigation, Pres Trump. Recently nine witnesses testified about the President’s involvement with the nation of Ukraine, his phone call with the Ukrainian President and his claimed demand for a “favor” in return for military aid and a White House visit. None of it fact as we have a treaty with Ukraine to investigate corruption. Most of the witnesses relied on hearsay and did not directly talk to the President. Others implicated the President’s attorney Rudy Giuliani. The result of the process has not been a “smoking gun” confirming any sort of crime committed by President Trump. Instead, the American people are being turned off by the entire stunt. More here

Proof Comey Lied Under Oath to "Get Trump"
7-4-18, FederalistPapers -- To the FISA court Comey claimed the dossier was verified, but under oath to Congress he said it wasn't. Based on Comey’s finding, Mrs Clinton should have faced a multiple-count criminal indictment. The FBI discovered that she had stored 110 classified emails on her unauthorized, private home computer server. Yet, Comey  saw to it that no charges were ever brought against her claiming 'no willful' violation. Under questioning, Comey admitted to the Inspector General [IG] Michael Horowitz that he authored the May 2, 2016 statement and penned every word of it himself. In 1948, Congress amended the original Espionage Act of 1917 to add a “gross negligence” provision that did not require intent or willfulness. ​If found guilty, he should be prosecuted and jailed as others have been for far less.

Dem Congresswoman' Rashida Tlaib’s Canceled Israel Trip
8-16-19, Muslim Ex-Palestinian Rashida Tlaib [D-MI] Hates Israel More Than She Loves Her Grandmother - Tlaib canceled her trip to visit her grandmother in the West Bank even after Israel approved it as long as she did no anti-Israel activities. She responded: "I can’t allow the State of Israel to take away that light by humiliating me & use my love for my [grandmother] to bow down to their oppressive & racist policies.” Israel is not oppressive nor racist; it's the ONLY democratic nation in the Middle East.

List of the Many Times Obama Spied on Candidate Donald Trump
April 2019, GatewayPundit -- McCarthyism! In March 2017 a list of more than a dozen proven victims of Obama’s illegal wiretaps was reported.  Now we can add to that list the many times when candidate and President Trump and his team were spied on. How is this not like or worse than Nixon's 1974 'Watergate' debacle?

2 Thessalonians 2:9-12; Romans 1:32; Deuteronomy 32:35; Exodus 9:12

​​12-5-19, Very interesting that the liberal leftist America hating Democrats are digging up this Ukraine saga when they are knee deep in the mire. Sure sounds like God's 'strong delusion' is in action. [2 Thessalonians 2:9-12]

Why are Dems continuing with their parade of false accusations against Donald Trump that began in January 2017? Why the hoopla over the insignificant nation of Ukraine?

Well, President Trump touched the third rail of Democrat/Deep State/DC Swamp politics when he asked Ukraine’s President Zelensky to investigate massive Democrat corruption and theft of taxpayer money. [Totally appropriate because President Bill Clinton's 1999 treaty for the two nations to cooperate to investigate corruption. Another fact pointing to God's strong delusion.] 
 
Apparently the biggest scandal in US political history is about to be unearthed with powerful people of the Democrat party and the ‘Deep State' possibly ending up in prison. Therefore, the wicked and corrupt leaders of the opposition must frame and destroy President Trump. For this to happen ... first former Obama Vice President Joe Biden has to be sacrificed. Obama doesn’t want him as their candidate; but the real story is about the Clintons, the Clinton Foundation, Obama, Nancy Pelosi, John Kerry and many other powerful Democrats. Their fingerprints are all over Ukraine. Forget about the high-paying jobs for family members [Hunter Biden Joe’s son] - this goes much deeper.

Joe Biden is just the tip of the iceberg; this is all about the Obama and Clinton Crime Families [Proverbs 29:2]. Ukraine donated the most cash of any country in the world to the Clinton Foundation; Ukraine’s Oligarch Viktor Pinchuk, who made a fortune in the pipe-building business, pledged a five-year, $29-million [$145 mill] commitment to the Clinton Global Initiative, a program purportedly to train future Ukrainian leaders “to modernize Ukraine.” [Wall Street Journal 2009-2014 report] Why would all this cash be coming from tiny Ukraine? [1] Answer: Ukraine [2] was the recipient of billions of dollars in US-taxpayer funded aid; and because it’s 4,873 miles away from Washington DC USA no one was watching. Democrats under Obama got rich [in 2019 it’s estimated Obama net worth $135 million and the stated reason was selling books and giving speeches].

​Why is the CLINTON FOUNDATION - a US charity - based offshore [in UK]? [3] A charity owes no taxes on donations.  Answer: offshore accounts require no reporting. [Looks like Mrs Clinton was running her version of the Gambino Crime Family slush fund with many in the Democrat Party and Deep State getting a piece of the ‘action’ insuring no one would rat them out ergo expose them.]
 
Clearly President Trump’s July 25, 2019 phone conversation with Ukraine’s president Zelensky set off alarm bells. Pres Trump is digging in places no one has ever dared before to dig. He could expose the extortion and bribery racket of leading Democrats. Donald Trump cannot be controlled by the "swamp" of Washington DC so they're working hard to eliminate his threat to their lifestyle.

President Trump has a remarkable record of economic success for the average American worker. Sixty-three million voters put him in the White House and we will keep him there until 2025. He has the highest Republican approval rating in history of 95%. Americans who support our hero, President Trump know that, in the United States of America we don’t punish investigators - we punish criminals. Donald Trump is not the criminal - the accusers are the criminals. 

No one is impeaching this president; we have your back President Trump and we are praying for you and your family’s safety. ​

Abortion Kills Humans
12-31-18, DailyWire -- An estimated 60 million unborn babies have died since the passage of Roe v. Wade in 1973. Thankfully President Trump has been making great strides to curtail the United States from the brutal killing of unborn human babies. The total number of abortions worldwide stands just 17 million people below the total number of general deaths worldwide (59 million), which does not factor abortion into its statistic. That means the correct total number of deaths worldwide in 2018 stands closer to 101 million. Those who would accuse pro-lifers of drastically over-inflating the numbers or wrongfully equating abortions with death fundamentally deny science.

How can we deny that there is a direct parallel between mankind's sin and the consequences of that sin?
Argentina homosexuality & God? USA abortion, homosexuality & God??

Argentina may have been rich 100 years ago. She was rich in 1914 because of commodities; its industrial base was only weakly developed. The landowners who made Argentina rich were not so bothered about educating it: cheap labor was what counted. That attitude prevailed into the 1940s, when Argentina had among the highest rates of primary-school enrolment in the world and among the lowest rates of secondary-school attendance. Primary school was important to create a sense of citizenship; but only the elite needed to be well educated. [..snip]

Now in the USA too many of our youth go all through 12 grades unable to read, write and add 2 + 2. The USA is on the same path as Argentina.

A Tale of Two Black Americans as Trump Support Rises Among
11-29-19, There is increased support for President Donald Trump within the African-American community. Black Voters’ Support for Trump at Record Numbers.
​New Poll Shows Black Voters Are Raising Their Voices in Support of Pres Trump
11-27-19, Two new polls show black support for U.S. Republican President Donald Trump at or slightly above 34 percent, and that means the president could get an unprescendented 20 percent of the black vote in 2020.
Black support for Trump goes up and one reaction is just rude
11-26-19, In response to the rude tweet from Ana Navarro-Cárdenas: "Zero chance this is accurate. Zero. The poll must have only been conducted in the homes of Ben Carson, Kanye, that sheriff guy with the hat and those two Cubic Zirconia & Polyester-Spandex ladies [Diamond & Silk]." Reuters poll found Black support for Trump doubled from 11% to 22%. 

Snopes.com says Pelosi didn't say that about straws; but it's still humorous. Here

11-28-19, * -- ​What’s at stake in America and Israel is whether voters or unelected officials run the country. Fake news and fake cases have been used by the media and by political operatives to mask a real coup. 

Prime Minister Netanyahu recently said: “It is important for me to emphasize that the only ones who determine who the prime minister will be are Israeli voters. That is the essence of democracy.”

Unelected officials have launched show trial coups in the USA & Israel. Public confidence in this political lefty mafia is at an incredible all-time low. The voters are responding by rejecting their credibility. [..snip]

The media claims that Netanyahu is “inciting” against the judiciary; but he’s just saying what everyone knows - the system is corrupt. And it abuses its powers to go after the targets of its corruption.

The Right began its dominance of Israeli politics because most of the country loathes the corrupt system that the old socialists put into place to maintain control of the people and the country. They just don’t believe that there’s an alternative to the system. That’s what the indictment is about. [Just like in America the lefties proclaim they must impeach Donald Trump or else he'll be re-elected!]

Caroline Glick recently said: “the opposition stands on two planks – destroying Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and eternalizing the regime of Israel’s unelected bureaucrats."

And Netanyahu is making clear that it’s either him or the bureaucrats. The actual case or cases against Prime Minister Netanyahu, as against President Trump, are a joke.

They depend on media leaks, intimidation by political operatives within law enforcement and the judiciary, and a lot of hand-wringing about the moral downfall of the nation with very little evidence.

The centerpieces of the coup against Netanyahu, Cases 2000 & 4000, both claim that the Israeli leader undertook to support certain policies in exchange for favorable media coverage. Glick said: “Nobody ever heard of the concept that positive media coverage could be considered a bribe because in no country on the face of the planet is positive coverage considered a bribe because if positive coverage is considered a bribe, then journalism as a point of fact is a criminal enterprise.”

If the media providing positive coverage of politicians who support their agenda is a crime, every single politician and media boss would be in jail. That’s the selective prosecution part. And, as with the US President Trump, not only is the prosecution selective, but it invents new crimes in the process of selecting them.

Benjamin & Sara Netanyahu - Case 2000 and 4000 - are really indictments for complaining about the media. The coups in America and Israel are a deeper struggle between:

• elected and unelected officials
• open and closed systems
• freedom and tyranny
• media power and people power
  
  A coup[s] either ends with the defeat of the people or the plotters. As PM Netanyahu said, this comes down to the question of who determines who will run the country; the voters or the lawyers?

Anti-Gun Dem Mike Bloomberg Joins Presidential Race with $34 million in ads
11-25-19, Lucianne.com -- Anti-gun New York Democrat Michael Bloomberg officially joined the race for president spending $34 million on TV ads during the coming week. Recently Breitbart News reported the depth of Bloomberg’s gun control support; he backs criminalizing private gun sales via universal background checks, banning “assault weapons,” banning “high capacity” magazines, expanding the prohibited purchaser’s list, instituting more gun trafficking laws, instituting Red Flag Laws, and placing more regulations on gun shows.​

Behind Bloomberg's $3,000-a-minute ad campaign
11-25-19, Clarion -- The net worth of former NY mayor Democrat Mike Bloomberg will go a long way as he pays for his own presidential campaign; net worth $54 billion. He's spending $35 million for his splashy entrance into the 2020 presidential contest is costing him. He has purchased time in a whopping 98 television markets around the country with millions more being spent on national ads. The money, as expected, is largely flowing to the “Super Tuesday” states that will vote on March 3, 2019. Bloomberg is spending $1.9 million to advertise in Los Angeles, another $1.2 million in Houston, $1.17 million in Dallas even in GOP Utah.

Bloomberg Will Not Be at Dec 19, 2019 Dem Debate; Not Accepting Donations
11-25-19, Politico -- Michael Bloomberg doesn’t plan to collect donations for his presidential campaign. That means he won’t appear in the next Democratic debate — and risks missing the half-dozen debates planned for next year. The billionaire businessman’s long-standing policy of bankrolling his political ambitions puts him in conflict with the Democrat National Committee’s requirements for participating in presidential primary debates. The threshold for the upcoming debate — hosted by POLITICO and PBS NewsHour on Dec. 19, 2019 — is 200,000 donors, with 800 donors in 20 different states.

8-29-19, WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Rand Paul (R-KY), of the Federal Spending Oversight and Emergency Management (FSO) Subcommittee for the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee (HSGAC), continued his efforts to reform the big-spending status quo with the release of a Summer 2019 edition of The Waste Report.

The shocking and outrageous ways the federal government spends the American people’s hard-earned money reports of:

• building up Tunisia’s political system
• Pakistani film industry
• supporting “green growth” in Peru
• teaching English and IT skills at Madrassas
• studying frog mating calls $467,000
• making improper payments to Medicare $48 billion, and more

BEFORE HE TAKES OFFICE!
January 1, 2017, Impeaching Trump Begin Now!
1-1-17, Robert Kuttner, ​HuffPost / REUTERS -- "Donald Trump is wildly unfit to be president, and he will demonstrate that in ways that break the law and violate the Constitution." Since the election, there have been three wishful efforts by the leftist Democrats to keep businessman Donald John Trump from the US presidency:

1. ​a recount doomed by a lack of evidence
2. a futile campaign to flip Trump electors
3. and an even more improbable drive to get the Supreme Court to annul the 2016 election.

​There is only one constitutional way to remove a president, and that is via impeachment. What’s needed is a citizens’ impeachment inquiry, to begin on Trump’s first day in office. 

Why Do People [voters!] Love Trump? 
Mostly Same Reasons Leftist Big Government Dems Hate Him
10-2-18, More than anything else, the 2016 presidential election was a referendum against the media, big government, elitists, high taxes and status quo. The people voted FOR cleaning out the swamp of politicians who have been entrenched in Washington for decades. For jobs, life, family, God and Guns! Although the anti-America haters in the media threw everything possible at him—coverage has been over 90% negative...  the voters still love Pres Trump. The thousands of people who stand in line at his rallys prove it! Don't believe the media and the polls. More here

​What Was on the Menu at the First Thanksgiving?
Information about first Pilgrim 'Thanksgiving' serving approximately 50 Pilgrims and 90 Indians - In 1621 Edward Winslow, an English leader with the Pilgrims wrote home to a friend in Holland:

“Our harvest being gotten in, our governor sent four men on fowling, that so we might after a special manner rejoice together after we had gathered the fruit of our labors. They four in one day killed as much fowl as, with a little help beside, served the company almost a week. At which time, amongst other recreations, we exercised our arms, many of the Indians coming amongst us, and among the rest their greatest king Massasoit, with some ninety men, whom for three days we entertained and feasted, and they went out and killed five deer, which they brought to the plantation and bestowed on our governor, and upon the captain and others.”  More here

Tulsi Gabbard Lashes Back at Mrs Clinton
10-18-19, NYTimes -- Presidential hopeful Democrat from Hawaii Ms Tulsi Gabbard fights back after Mrs Clinton waded into the Democrat primary suggesting that Russia was backing Representative Tulsi Gabbard...

11-21-19, Judi McLeod, Canada Free Press* -- After all the histrionics of Adam Schiff [D-CA] televised LIVE at the Impeachment ‘Inquiry’ with one 'know nothing' bureaucrat after another having to admit they have no evidence of wrong doing by President Donald Trump, they’re shooting themselves in their own feet.

So ... after of a month of 24/7 negative press and the impeachment fiasco, is Pres Trump in anyway wounded?

• His re-election campaign raised $3.1 MILLION in the first day of the impeachment hoax
• Current Gallup Nov 20, 2019 poll : ‘Trump Approval Holds Steady in Face of Impeachment Probe.’
  • President Donald Trump’s approval has risen back to 43%
  • Disapproval of Trump has fallen to 54%
  • Trump’s handling of the economy remains his strongest area
  • Latest 2020 Wisconsin poll [@realDonaldTrump] has Trump leading EVERY major Democrat contender:
    • “Trump Vs Biden—47 to 44
    • “Trump Vs Warren—48 to 43
    • “Trump Vs Sanders—48 to 45
    • “Trump Vs Buttigieg—48 to 39

Dems Loosing Money
The Democrat Natl Committee [DNC] just tried to hide their FEC fundraising report in the middle of the Democrat debate that shows just $8.7M cash on hand and $7M in debt; meaning there’s only about $1 million dollars left in the Democrat PIGGY-bank. The raging Democrats seem totally unaware ... there’s no cure for stupid.

The ten Democrat presidential hopefuls at MSNBC's Dem Debate in Atlanta, Georgia last night [11-20-19] broadcast drew low viewership. Voters are tired of their ridiculous mantra and hatred for President Trump.  Rep. Devin Nunes said it best.  “They harbor so much hatred for President Trump that they are trying to impeach him on glorified gossip.”  -- *Excerpted and adapted full report here 

 John 8:44
 
11-20-19, * -- CNN and other counterfeit news media are reporting about the Democrat's impeachment hearings in their continuing attempts to remove President Trump from the White House.  The liberal leftist Democrat cronies are using any small thing they can to insinuate, cast doubt, infer, incite and otherwise confer that President Trump deserves to be removed from office. In their reporting there's no "other" side to the story and it's all bad, all the time. Rasmussen reports that 53% of likely voters believe the media is trying to help impeach Donald Trump. To me, the other 47% have no idea how to discern the truth if it hit them in the face. [Note: 46% of those polled ask 'where's Joe & Hunter Biden in these proceedings?]
 
Ephesians 5:6 says, "Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things comes the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience." [See also: Matthew 24:4 & John 3:32]
 
Deception is an art in of itself and we see it everyday. A little bit of truth makes a better lie. So if politicians and the news media can weave just a mustard seed of truth into their narrative, it supports the lie they want us to accept. 
 
Christ spoke of how, when He leaves, He will send the Spirit of truth to guide the disciples, "Howbeit when He, the Spirit of truth, is come, He will guide you into all truth." And this is how we, as born again believers in Christ Jesus [John 3:3, 7], are able to discern truth to this very day.               

“Truth” is key to living as a disciple of Christ. [John 14:6] ​We should first determine whether someone is of Christ or not? [Matthew 7:21-23] By their behaviors, life, goals, speech and accomplishments [“fruits”] we will be able to discern their intentions and if they are honest truthful people [Luke 6:43]. Then, with the guidance of the Holy Spirit; we can determine whether what they say is truth. 
 
We must recognize the truth and act on it. If one doesn't recognize or discern truth, there are consequences. ​

On Monday, Nov 19, 2019 United States Secretary of State Mike Pompeo repudiated a 1978 State Dept legal opinion that held that the Jewish state of Israel's civilian "settlements" [homes for Jews] in the so-called occupied territories of Judea & Samaria [aka West Bank] are "inconsistent with international law."  He said: 

"Calling the establishment of civilian settlements inconsistent with international law has not advanced the cause of peace. The hard truth is that there will never be a judicial resolution to the conflict and arguments about who is right and who is wrong as a matter of international law will not bring peace."

Even though the US decision is largely symbolic; in a prepared statement Israel's Prime Minister Netanyahu said: 

"This policy reflects a historical truth - that the Jewish people are not foreign colonialists in Judea and Samaria. In fact, we are called Jews because we are the people of Judea. The Trump Administration policy is also correct in stating that those who have categorically denied any legal basis for the settlements not only deny truth, history and the reality on the ground, they also set back the cause of peace, which can only be achieved through direct negotiations between the parties. Israel is deeply grateful to President Trump, Secretary Pompeo and the entire US administration for their steadfast position supporting truth and justice and calls upon all responsible countries who hope to advance peace to adopt a similar position."

The Obama administration allowed the UN to condemn Israel's homes in Judea & Samaria [settlements].  Israel rejects all United Nations' arguments regarding the illegality of the homes for Jews in Judea and Samaria. More here from CBN
