In HIS Words: "He is my shield & strength; the saving refuse of HIS anointed...." Please strengthen our leadership to remain focused - paying No Attention to the devil's threats & lies. Our Lord will give Believers continued strength and the words supporting their unwavering faith and trust; thus, WE have the UPPER HAND over Our Adversaries!!! Praise God!!!!!!!

This guy, a politician, takes money from the lobbies, just like they all do. This is grandstanding. He's in the pocket of the lobbies, and he doesn't want to acknowledge it, and in his belief system, it's OK to take money for favours. He projects all US failures on the office of the US president. What a load of nonsense. The US must stay a free nation...and to do so means hard work and honest leadership...not corruption. If you try and stop lobbying cash in the USA, you will quickly appreciate there is actually an enemy within the US.

And only subject on the path to being a citizen and for defining a citizen. At the moment of my birth, before I even drew my first breath, I was subject to the jurisdiction and immediately, in the twinkling of an eye, acknowledged as far more than a mere subject but now a citizen. And when my wife was naturalized, the very instant she finished her oath, before she even sat back down, she became subject to the jurisdiction and also immediately, in the twinkling of an eye, acknowledged as far more than a mere subject but now a citizen.

For example, he's talking about stripping away social safety nets because of spending yet there's people already so poor they will likely never even see this speech. So, why not stop spending money "blowing people up" and invest in the "greatest" country. His speech has good points but unfortunately many appeal to issues that are rooted in capitalism that I'm sure he and his peers would never adhere to.

No MS, this is what the country NEEDS TO HEAR: 60% of the US debt is from REPUBLICONSERVATIVES. 40% from Democrats. Where was Roy when Trump and his party gave a 2 trillion dollar tax cut to the wealthiest Americans and corporations to be made up by the average middle class tax payer? And when the Dems champion spending on things for average Americans republicons become apoplectic. Name one program in the past 50 years the Republicons put forward that would help the average person in this country. The RepubliCON party is nothing more than a front organization for wealthy elites and transnational corporations that fund their campaigns, fund their think tanks who write the laws favoring the wealthy and corporations so their republicon whores in congress like Chip Roy of Texas will do their bidding. The the conservative media propaganda machine, including Forbes pushes narratives like the one we are seeing here to anger and brainwash their base into action. Do a search on the following if you want the facts.

All Chip is doing is shining a bright light on what people should be doing.. and the people are too lazy to do it. If you are suppose to be operating as a sovereign entity why haven't you and the people operating on that? You will quickly realize the power you have and every private agency is supposed obey your commands that are in lock step with the constitution but it isn't being respected.. and that spirit of disrespect.. which was like a badge of honor as a representing image of God in this country perhaps has been exercised.. even the judges in courts room cleverly hold people in contempt for attempting to exercise the constitution in the court room.

But Trump was one man, and was limited in his scope to do what it is up to The People to do... First, VOTE these slimy, corrupted creatures out of office. And if the election process fails and is as corrupt as the rest of government, then there is no more recourse for The People. There is no more justice in the legal system. There are no more politicians, who care about The People. They are looking out for themselves and their own agendas.
