Law enforcement, child predators, and a wanna be citizen hero.

Your kids are in danger online. Part two of my investigations and discoveries

I've lost faith in too many people. I look around at people I have known my whole life—people I once knew to be good, decent, and kind—and I no longer recognize them. You now stand for things that I find abhorrent, things that even you would have been against ten years ago. I've realized that reasonable conversation is dead. Minds cannot be changed. This platform has become a toxic echo chamber, and frankly, I am tired. MAGA supporters tell me all the time that my "hatred" of one man causes me to go against what's right. Here is my retort: Your love of one man has caused you to abandon your morals, your principles, and even your religion. When a man reveals who he is, but you refuse to believe it, something has changed inside your brain. Is it brainwashing? Is it a cult? Is it spiritual? I don't know. But the evidence is overwhelming, and you choose to look away. He is a man who screwed over countless small businesses—roofers, masons, steelworkers—leaving them unpaid and forcing them to sue him, only for him to hide behind bankruptcy seven times. That's who he is. He is a man who created a fake children's charity to steal from and plunder. That's who he is. He is a man who bragged about sexually assaulting women because he's rich and famous. A man confirmed in court to have assaulted a woman—essentially rape—escaped only by outdated state definitions. That's who he is. He is a man convicted of 42 felonies. That's who he is. He is a man who was best friends with Jeffrey Epstein for 15 years, whose own documents show he sent female employees to him. A man who speaks inappropriately about his own daughter. That's who he is. He is a man who says he doesn't have to ask God for forgiveness. A man who scammed his own followers with a "shit coin" to make billions while they lost money. That's who he is. I could go on for twenty minutes. The list is endless. But you love him so much you ignore it. Or worse, you defend it. I can't do this anymore. My heart is broken by people I once knew to be ethical, moral Christians who have sold out to a charlatan. You claim faith, yet show no empathy for hungry children, single moms, immigrants, or the police officers bashed in the face by the very rioters this man pardoned. My heart is tired. Fascism is taking root, and half the nation is willfully blind to it. There is no excuse for ignorance today. The knowledge of the world is at your fingertips, yet you ignore that power to rely on partisan memes and the words of liars. When people choose to be willfully ignorant, hope is lost. When people choose the powerful over the powerless, hope is lost. When people choose the rapist over the raped, hope is lost. When people choose a cult of personality over the teachings of their religion, hope is lost. Finally, to those sending me threats: I see you. For years, since Covid and as recently as last week, my safety has been threatened. I have shared your private messages and profiles with friends and family. If something happens to me, the police will know exactly who to look for. I love you. And I love America. But I can't anymore. Good luck.

Stop letting the rich gobble up the wealth in this country. You are literally giving it to them. Fight for yourself for a change.

We are the problem. All of us understanding that we are the problem is the first step to finding the solution. For being the solution. To change “we are the problem” to “we are the solution.”

A shocking look at pervs and predators on social media. Things I learned from going undercover in my free time to see how many perverts are following kids online.

Donald Trump is a salesman. But what is he selling? It's not hope, innovation, or positivity? It's insidious. Donald Trump handed the American right the most dangerous weapon in modern history—manufactured doubt. And he didn't invent it. He stole it from Big Tobacco's most insidious playbook. “Doubt is our product.” That was the chilling strategy cigarette companies adopted once science exposed their deadly lie. They couldn't disprove the truth, so they buried it beneath a mountain of confusion. Pay off doctors. Cherry-pick data. Question the research. Sow just enough uncertainty to paralyze the public. And it worked—for decades. Trump saw that and ran with it. But he didn't just weaponize doubt—he fused it with something far older and more primal. Tool One: Tribalism Evolution wired humans to distrust outsiders. Trump pulled that ancient instinct to the surface and sharpened it into a political blade. From day one, he cast immigrants as criminals and threats—rapists, murderers, thieves. His followers, primed by fear and fed a steady diet of blame, didn't resist. They embraced it. And then he expanded the target: Democrats. Scientists. Journalists. Judges. It wasn't a political strategy. It was mass psychological warfare. Tool Two: Doubt He repeated one line like gospel: “Fake news.” Every time a truth threatened him, he cast it as a lie. No need to disprove it. Just label it. Mock it. Question it. And do it loudly, constantly, relentlessly. His base—already locked in tribal loyalty—didn't need evidence. Just reinforcement. From there, doubt spread like a virus: -Doubt science -Doubt medical professionals -Doubt vaccines -Doubt experts in every field -Doubt the research -Doubt the cops -Doubt the judges -Doubt the prosecutors -Doubt the juries -Doubt the verdicts -Doubt the voting machines -Doubt the voters -Doubt the voting officials -Doubt the ballots -Doubt the election -Doubt democracy -Doubt Everything that doesn't come from my mouth There was no proof. There never is. But he didn't need it. He just needed repetition and conviction. A lie repeated a thousand times becomes not truth, but something more powerful—belief. And now? Millions believe only what he says. No source is trusted unless it bows to him. He is their truth. Their reality. Their god. Trump isn't dumb. He's dangerous. Not because he's insightful—but because he understands the power of manipulation at scale. He didn't create a political movement. He created a cult of disbelief—and he's selling doubt like it's salvation. Doubt is the product. You're the customer. And the cost? Your country.

Today I'm going to talk about trade and tariffs in a way that even a 5 year old can understand if. Now I know, that probably sounds dry. But if you stick around, I promise you'll end this episode knowing more about trade and the global economy than most politicians—and certainly more than the President of the United States. And I'm not even trying to be edgy with that. It's just… true. Here's the reality: A trade surplus or trade deficit is just the difference between what a country exports and what it imports. That's it. It's not a win-or-lose scoreboard. It's not a sign of national strength or weakness. It's an accounting detail. A symptom—not a diagnosis. And cutting off trade with another country? That doesn't “save” us money. It doesn't “bring back jobs.” What it actually does is shrink the economy. It limits product availability. It raises prices for everything from cars to cornflakes. It triggers inflation. It makes everyone poorer. Period. This isn't new information. We've known it for a long time. And if you need proof, let's roll the tape back to one of the dumbest trade blunders in U.S. history: the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act of the 1930s. Congress—bless their hearts—thought slapping tariffs on imported goods would protect American farmers and manufacturers during the Great Depression. Instead, what happened? Other countries retaliated. Exports plummeted by over 60%. Trade collapsed. Jobs vanished. The global economy cratered even further. Now here's the fun part: if that name—Smoot-Hawley—rings a bell, maybe you remember it from Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Yeah. A teen comedy from 1986 explained it better than most modern politicians. Ben Stein, in his iconic deadpan role as the economics teacher, delivers this legendary scene: “In 1930, the Republican-controlled House of Representatives, in an effort to alleviate the effects of the… uh… anyone? Anyone?… the Great Depression, passed the… anyone?… Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act, which… anyone?… raised or lowered?… raised tariffs, in an effort to collect more revenue. Did it work?… Anyone?… It did not work, and the United States sank deeper into the Great Depression.” It's played for laughs—but it's also spot-on. It didn't work. And yet, nearly a century later, we've got people pushing the exact same crap with new branding. Fast forward to the U.S.-China trade war under Trump. We jacked up tariffs on Chinese goods. China retaliated—hard—by targeting U.S. agriculture. Soybeans. Pork. Wheat. Farmers across the Midwest got wrecked. Prices dropped. Exports dried up. So what did we do? We bailed them out with tens of billions of taxpayer dollars. Let that sink in. The government caused the problem, then used your money to patch over the hole they blew in the boat. That's not economic strategy—that's political arson followed by very expensive fire trucks. And this isn't just a U.S. issue. Let's look globally. In 2010, Japan got into a diplomatic spat with China. As leverage, they restricted exports of rare earth minerals—critical materials used in smartphones, electric vehicles, wind turbines, even missiles. The result? Panic. Supply chains trembled. Prices exploded. The entire tech and manufacturing sector around the world felt the aftershocks. It was a reminder: global trade isn't just about profit—it's about stability. Or take Russia in 2022, cutting off natural gas supplies to Europe in response to sanctions over Ukraine. What happened? Prices for electricity and heating fuel in countries like Germany and Italy soared—by over 500% in some cases. Factories shut down. Steel, fertilizer, aluminum production—all scaled back or halted. Inflation soared. Food prices, rent, basic goods—everything went up. Because when trade breaks, everything breaks. There are a million more examples. And every time, it's the same story. Politicians sell you a fairy tale about protecting the economy, about bringing jobs home, about “America First” or whatever slogan they're workshopping this week. But in reality? You get screwed. You pay more at the grocery store. You pay more for fuel. You lose job opportunities. You live in an economy that's slower, more expensive, and less competitive. That's the price of economic ignorance. Trade isn't some abstract Wall Street concept. It's what keeps your shelves stocked, your bills manageable, and your paycheck worth something. Trade supports competition. That's what keeps prices low. It drives innovation. That's what keeps companies from getting lazy. It creates connections. That's what builds resilience in times of crisis. Cutting it off doesn't “protect” us—it isolates us. It weakens us. It leaves us more vulnerable. And who pays? You do. Every time. Not the president. Not the billionaire donor class. Not the lobbyists. You. Because you're the one paying $5 for eggs. You're the one whose factory job didn't come back. You're the one stuck choosing between overpriced groceries or a busted car you can't afford to fix. Trade is not a zero-sum game. It's not about dominance. It's about growth—mutual growth. And if the people in charge can't understand that, if they'd rather posture than learn economics 101, then maybe we need to start electing people who can.

My Three Moms Today, I want to honor not one, but three extraordinary women. I only ever had one mom. Brenda. The most amazing mom anyone could ask for. But the universe knew I'd need more. And He sent two remarkable women who became mothers to me in every way that mattered—when it mattered most. This is a tribute to my three moms. Let me start with my Aunt Helen. She was the sweetest woman I've ever known—heart as wide as the sky. She named me. Literally. My parents couldn't decide, and it was her suggestion they finally chose. She cut my hair through my teens—never took a dime. She let me crash at her house anytime, no questions asked. She taught me card games—spades, boo ray, and more—and not just how to play, but how to enjoy the little moments. And when I got kicked out of my dad's house—I deserved it, too—she took me in. No rent. No judgment. Just love, food, and a warm place to be. She didn't just only help me. She treated every kid like they mattered. Because to her, they did. Then there's my Aunt Margaret. She lived right next door. And growing up, she became my home away from home. We didn't have TV at my house, so every night I was at her place, laying in the floor, eyes glued to her screen watching the dukes of hazard and other favorites, till 9 p.m which was my strict curfew. And then I was out the door, run across the lawn to our house, and get ready for bed. And she never once made me feel like a burden. I always felt at home. She fed me. Put up with me. Took me on family fishing trips, vacations, field days. She made sure I didn't miss out just because we didn't have much. My dad wasn't really a get out and do things kind of dad. He was always working at work, or working at home. And my aunt Margaret (and uncle Melvin) included me in so many family trips and activities I never felt like I missed out on much. But the greatest act of love came after the worst day of my life. When my mom passed away. It was just me, Aunt Margaret, and Aunt Helen in that hospital room. In the wee hours of the morning. I had been in that room for weeks. Not leaving moms side unless I had too. And in those final days of the final week there was three of us in that room. Right up until my mom took her last breath. The three of us, me, Aunt Helen, and Aunt Margaret, their love and strength holding me up in the silence. In the years that followed my mom's passing, Aunt Margaret literally saved me. She called or texted me every single day for at least two years. Some days, her voice or text was the only thing that reminded me life was still worth living. Dinner invites, holiday invites, “I love you” texts. And simple Gentle check-ins that didn't let me disappear. I will never forget that. Ever. And then there's my mom. Let me focus on her for the rest of this tribute. My mom Brenda. Or as my dad often called her “sue.” Or as the members of her church and the young girls she loved to mentor called her “sister Brenda.” My first love. A woman that could never be matched in my eyes. My first safe place. My lifeline safe place. There has never been a more selfless person. She gave without asking. She hurt quietly, forgave fiercely, and loved unconditionally. She was frugal, but so generous. With her time, her prayers, her acts of caring. She prayed for people who hurt her. She checked in on the sick. She cooked for the hungry. She volunteered at church, the fire department, the election polls, and in countless other little ways. She held pain in so others wouldn't have to. She always put others first. Even to her own detriment. I often thing of the lean days of my childhood. When dinner every night seemed to be Lima beans with a big ham bone in it. Very little actual ham. And biscuits. Every night it was remarkable that my mom revealed she didn't really like ham all that much. And what was there found its way on mine and my dad's plate. Interestingly enough she would always often reveal she didn't really like beans that much. Not as much as the soup. So those would find their on mine and dads plate. And she would take a biscuit and sop it in the bean soup. And say how full she was. She was a devout Christian in the most sincere sense—not in show, but in spirit. She played piano like a virtuoso. She taught piano like a maestro, teaching me to play. She sang like an angel. She lived her faith with quiet grace and tireless devotion. She never judged me—even when I was at my worst. She just loved me. And prayed for me. Mom passed in 2017. And not long after, Aunt Helen passed too. But Aunt Margaret is still here. Still showing up. Still texting, still calling, still mothering. Even with everything she carries in her own life—she never forgets to check in. So this Mother's Day, I say this with a full heart: I was blessed with one incredible mom. And then I was blessed again. Twice more. Three women. Three hearts. Three lives that wrapped themselves around mine when I needed it most. This is for Brenda, Helen, and Margaret. My three moms. I love you. And to my mom Brenda. I haven't stopped missing you for one single second since the day that you left. The pain is relentless. Never ending. I miss you more than you could possible ever imagine. I love you.

Want to talk trade deficits, imports, tariffs, manufacturing? Let's dispense with the bullshit: Foreigners didn't steal your job. You weren't taken advantage of by evil Mexicans . You weren't outsmarted by China. You weren't out-hustled by India. You were betrayed—gutted from the inside—by your own country. IT WAS AN INSIDE JOB! American corporations didn't lose a war. They committed treason. They looked at you—your life, your labor, your family—and decided you were too expensive. Too demanding. Too human. A burden on their lifestyle. So they cashed you in. Like a used car with too many miles. THE MURDER ON THE PHONE WAS IN YOUR HOUSE THE WHOLE TIME! You think some dude in a rice paddy undercut you? No. It was a CEO in a penthouse with a calculator and a dead conscience. It was the boardroom full of sociopaths who saw a 12-year-old working barefoot in a Cambodian sweatshop and said, “Perfect.” You didn't lose your job—you were sacrificed. For stock prices. For dividends. For a bigger fucking yacht. Who were the perpetrators? One of them was the billionaire you elected that now sits in the Oval Office . His cabinet is filled with 12 more of them. Billionaires. Men that sacrificed people like you and me to buy their 5th yacht. And while your manufacturing town withered, your factory shut down, and your family scraped by, those same executives popped champagne, bought another mansion, and sent their kids to Ivy League schools with the money they saved by shipping your livelihood overseas. And Congress? They were the pimps in the corner nodding along. “Global trade,” they said. “Free markets,” they said. What they meant was: bend over, America. We already got paid. They sold you out like livestock. And you keep re-electing them like good little sheep. Then came Trump—the orange mouthpiece for billionaire interests, pretending to be your savior. He talks tough about China while he's slurping down corporate cash and cutting taxes for the very bastards who killed your job in the first place. He's not a warrior. He's a mascot. A bloated clown for the oligarchy. And the worst part? You bought it. You waved the flag. You wore the hat. You screamed “America First!” while getting stabbed in the goddamn back by your own. This wasn't globalization. This was domestic economic genocide. And you weren't the victim of some foreign enemy. You were the casualty of capitalism gone rabid—of a system that chews up working people and wipes its ass with the Constitution. So don't cry about lost jobs. Don't point at China. Look in the mirror. Look at your ballot. Look at your boss. That's who did this. And no, it's not going to change—because no one's lining up to work 14-hour days for crumbs while billionaires get richer for doing less than nothing. So yeah—good luck, America. You didn't get robbed. You got sold out. And now you're too damn proud to admit it. And you're trusting in the billionaire president surrounded by the billionaires who played you, thinking they will now save you.

Is America taking its last gasp? Has all ability to reason vanished? Have we taken the last step away from self reliance, self observation, and chosen to just relinquish all of our concerns to the whims of a single man?

America is in decline. And while politicians are doing everything they can to assist in the decline, ultimately the fault lies at the feet of the American people.

It's become apparent that MAGA and a large percentage of Americans don't have a clue about what has happened in Ukraine, or the supposed peace deal. I'm here to help out. Resources:https://www.csis.org/analysis/...https://www.dw.com/en/ukraine-...https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wik...

Today, we're diving into something that's been simmering in the background of global politics and economics for a while now, but it's starting to boil over in ways that could seriously impact the U.S. economy. And, of course, it ties back to everyone's favorite orange-hued, tariff-loving president: Donald Trump. Yep, we're talking about Trump's tariffs, the rise of BRICS+, and what happens when the U.S. decides to play hardball with global trade. Buckle up, because this is gonna get spicy. Okay, let's start with the basics. Trump is slapping tariffs on China, Mexico, Canada, and basically anyone who isn't kissing his ring? Yeah. The idea is to “protect American jobs” and “bring manufacturing back to the U.S.” Sounds great in theory, right? But here's the thing: tariffs are like a boomerang. You throw them out there, and eventually, they come back and smack you in the face. And guess what? That boomerang is heading straight for us. Now, Imagine this scenario: Canada and Mexico—yes, our neighbors to the north and south—decide to join BRICS+. Wait, what's BRICS+? I know, I know, it's not exactly dinner table conversation unless you're a total geopolitics nerd. But stick with me, because this is huge. BRICS+ is basically a coalition of some of the biggest emerging economies in the world: Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. The “+” is for the new countries joining the club, like Saudi Arabia, Iran, Egypt, Ethiopia, and the United Arab Emirates. Together, these countries represent 40% of global trade, 50% of the world's population, and a staggering $600 billion of all U.S. imports. That's not chump change, folks. Now, if Canada and Mexico—two of our largest trading partners—decide to join BRICS+, it's game over for the U.S. in terms of maintaining its economic dominance. Why? Because BRICS+ is all about creating an alternative to the U.S.-dominated global financial system. They're talking about trading in their own currencies, bypassing the U.S. dollar, and basically telling the U.S. to take its tariffs and shove ‘em. And let's be real, this didn't happen in a vacuum. Trump's tariffs were like throwing gasoline on a fire. They pissed off our allies, alienated our trading partners, and made the U.S. look like the schoolyard bully who thinks he can push everyone around. But here's the thing about bullies: eventually, the other kids get tired of getting pushed around and band together to fight back. That's exactly what's happening with BRICS+. And when the “f*** around and find out” moment comes home to roost, who do you think the MAGA crowd is gonna blame? Obama? Nancy Pelosi? CNN? Or maybe DEI—because apparently, that's the new scapegoat for everything these days. Of course they will. That is who they have been conditioned to blame. But here's the truth: this will be a self-inflicted wound. Protectionist, isolationist, antagonistic trade policies don't make a country stronger—they make it weaker. They shrink economies, stifle innovation, and create a whole lot of bad blood with the rest of the world. Now, I know some of you are thinking, “But hey, tariffs feel good in the moment, right?” We are taking action. We are putting America first! Sure, if you're the bully picking on someone because you've got low self-esteem, no genuine plan. It feels powerful to flex your muscles and say, “We're not gonna take it anymore!” But that feeling is short-lived. Eventually, the other kids stop playing with you, and you're left sitting alone at the lunch table. And that's where we're headed if we don't course-correct. Free trade expands the economic interests of everyone involved. It creates jobs, lowers prices for consumers, and fosters innovation. Protectionism does the opposite. It's like building a wall around your economy and hoping no one notices that the rest of the world is moving on without you. So, what's the takeaway here? Well, for starters, we need to stop pretending that tariffs are some kind of magic bullet for economic growth. They're not. They're a blunt instrument that does more harm than good in the long run. And we need to start paying attention to what's happening with BRICS+. This isn't just some abstract geopolitical concept—it's a real threat to U.S. economic dominance. And finally, we need to stop blaming everyone else for our problems. Obama didn't do this. Nancy Pelosi didn't do this. CNN didn't do this. This is on us. We voted for the guy who thought tariffs were a good idea, and now we're going to reap what we sow. So, good luck, America! We're gonna need it. Because if Canada and Mexico decide to join BRICS+, it's gonna be a whole new world out there. And I don't know about you, but I'm not sure we're ready for it. Thanks for tuning in, everyone. If you enjoyed this episode, don't forget to like, share, and subscribe. And hey, if you've got thoughts on tariffs, BRICS+, or anything else we talked about today, drop us a comment.

The Republican Party, particularly its MAGA faction, has become a case study in cognitive dissonance and moral bankruptcy, a collective psyche so fractured and contradictory that it defies reason. Their rhetoric oscillates between outrage and absurdity, a cacophony of grievances that reveals not just a lack of coherence, but a profound disdain for humanity itself. Take their obsession with welfare and entitlement programs. They rail against the idea of their tax dollars supporting those who don't work, framing it as a moral failing of the individual rather than a systemic issue. Yet, when Democrats propose initiatives to empower people—those with disabilities, the marginalized, the overlooked—to enter the workforce and contribute meaningfully, Republicans recoil in horror. Suddenly, the very idea of employment for the disabled becomes a lightning rod for their vitriol. They twist it into a caricature, as if hiring a blind person to work in a call center is tantamount to putting them in charge of air traffic control. The absurdity is staggering. No one is suggesting that individuals be placed in roles they are incapable of performing. The goal is simple: to ensure that those who *can* work—who are qualified, capable, and eager—are not systematically excluded because of prejudice or ignorance. It's about creating opportunities, not lowering standards. But nuance is lost on those who thrive on fear and division. And then there's the MAGA obsession with scapegoating. Every disaster, every misfortune, every act of God is somehow the fault of the disabled, or Black and brown people, or immigrants. It's a worldview built on paranoia and bigotry, a desperate attempt to deflect blame from the systemic failures they themselves perpetuate. The irony is almost poetic. They demand self-sufficiency, yet recoil when steps are taken to enable it. They claim to value hard work, yet vilify those who seek it. They cry foul at the idea of “handouts,” yet reject any effort to level the playing field. It's a cycle of contradiction and hypocrisy so profound that it borders on pathological. MAGA has become the political embodiment of perpetual victimhood, a movement defined by its endless whining and manufactured outrage. There is no pleasing them because their grievances are not rooted in reality—they are a performance, a spectacle designed to distract from their own moral and intellectual bankruptcy. And yet, despite their theatrics, the truth remains: initiatives to empower the disabled, to create opportunities for the marginalized, to build a more inclusive society—these are not just good things. They are necessary things. They are the mark of a civilization that values dignity and equity over fear and division. But for the MAGA faithful, even this is too much to bear. They would sooner poison their own soup and blame it on someone else than admit that compassion and progress are not threats to their existence. The Trump brain rot has seeped too deep, twisting their worldview into something unrecognizable. And for that, there may be no cure.

While I'm not a believer I do have times where I'm jealous or envious of those who believe in the afterlife and supernatural.

Is it true that the best diet is the diet that works best for you? Let's talk about that.

Original sin. Blood sacrifice. Only righteous because of the blood of Jesus. Does this jive with the Old Testament? Ezekiel 18:19-27 19 Yet say ye, Why? doth not the son bear the iniquity of the father? When the son hath done that which is lawful and right, and hath kept all my statutes, and hath done them, he shall surely live. 20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him. 21 But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die. 22 All his transgressions that he hath committed, they shall not be mentioned unto him: in his righteousness that he hath done he shall live. 23 Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord God: and not that he should return from his ways, and live? 24 But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and doeth according to all the abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he live? All his righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned: in his trespass that he hath trespassed, and in his sin that he hath sinned, in them shall he die. 25 Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equal. Hear now, O house of Israel; Is not my way equal? are not your ways unequal? 26 When a righteous man turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and dieth in them; for his iniquity that he hath done shall he die. 27 Again, when the wicked man turneth away from his wickedness that he hath committed, and doeth that which is lawful and right, he shall save his soul alive.

Looking at this notion that people born one way are sinners while people born another are gods perfect creation.

Talking about MAGA brainwashing and how it has made otherwise intelligent people believe the most nonsensical things.

Woke Culture Pros of Woke Culture1. Increased Awareness of Social Issues- Woke culture has heightened awareness around issues like racism, sexism, and other forms of discrimination, leading to more informed and empathetic communities. This has spurred significant social change and policy reform.2. Advocacy for Marginalized Groups- It has given a voice to marginalized groups, pushing for their rights and representation in media, politics, and other areas. This has helped foster a more inclusive and equitable society.3. Encouragement of Accountability- Woke culture emphasizes holding individuals and institutions accountable for their actions, promoting transparency and integrity in various sectors, including business, education, and government.Cons of Woke Culture1. Polarization and Division- The fervent nature of woke culture can lead to polarization, creating an "us vs. them" mentality. This can result in social fragmentation and reduced dialogue between differing viewpoints.2. Cancel Culture- The rise of cancel culture, often associated with woke culture, can lead to punitive measures without due process. This can result in individuals being ostracized or losing their livelihoods over past mistakes or controversial opinions.3. Surface-Level Changes- Sometimes, woke culture can lead to performative actions rather than substantial change. Companies and individuals might engage in tokenism, making superficial gestures instead of addressing the root causes of social issues.When cause based organizations meet their goal, they pile on other causes or gin up things to keep donations coming in and their jobs secure

Today I examine the fundamental philosophy of Christianity. That is the idea that the only way anyone can be forgiven is Jesus just have died, resurrected , they must personally believe that. There is no other way. Jesus sacrificial death and resurrection is required for absolving sin. Without blood sacrifice there is no remission of sins. Your faith. And your belief that Jesus lived, died , and rose again is the only way to be forgiven. Nobody else can have faith for you. 1 Corinthians 15:17,18 For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised: and if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins. Romans 1:4; 4:25 And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification. 1 Peter 2:24  Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed. Hebrews 9:22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission. Paralyzed man Mark 2:3-9 3 And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four. 4 And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay. 5 When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee. 6 But there was certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts, 7 Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God only? 8 And immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he said unto them, Why reason ye these things in your hearts? 9 Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk? Matthew 9:1-8 Luke 5:18-26

I make the case that MAGA is definitely a cult. The evidence is overwhelming. Not everyone that supports Trump are MAGA cults members. But many are. Hello, welcome to another edition of the Brett Mason Show. I'm the full mention Brett Mason. Glad to have you here today. Today we're gonna talk about politics. Been on religion for a while. You know, the only thing I'm missing out on in the trifecta of things you should never talk about is women. I've talked about religion, talked about politics. And I guess in a sense today, it'll be a mix of politics and religion. So you kind of get a twofer. Today we're gonna be talking about how MAGA is 100% a cult. I stand by it. The past, I guess, especially the past three months, three-ish months, I've done so much research into cults, what makes up a cult, and the understanding of how cults work, and how people who are under the, I don't know what you should call it, the power of their cult leader or whatever, how they act and how they respond. And once you dive into it and study it, there can be no mistake that MAGA is a cult. It's just 100% is a cult. There's a few traits of people that are in cults, and no cult ever[…]

Today we will discuss why people believe what they believe.

The final part of my path to becoming a non believer.

Deconstruction of my faith part 2 There's nothing you can do. Let's first make clear that god at any point in history is the same. Not according to me, but according to him. Malachi 3:6 For I am the LORD, I change not But Jesus is different than God? John 14:8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us. Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father? Believest thou not that I am in the Father Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever You don't have any day in any of it. You are here at his whim. Romans 9:14 What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid. 15 For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. 16 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy. 17 For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth. 18 Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth. 19 Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will? 20 Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus? 21 Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour? 22 What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction: 23 And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,

Deconstruction Three natures of God and applying them to biblical writings Omniscient - all knowing Omnipresent- present everywhere at the same time. Also not constrained by time Omnipotent - all powerful And the nature of biblical writings Inspired by god Infallible My first two questions Revelations 6:12 prophecy Omniscience The Sixth Seal: Terror 12And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; 13And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. 14And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. 15And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; 16And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: 17For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? Genesis 2:8 Creation Omniscience The Planting of the Garden 8And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed. 9And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil. 10And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads. 11The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold; 12And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the onyx stone. 13And the name of the second river is Gihon: the same is it that compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia. 14And the name of the third river is Hiddekel: that is it which goeth toward the east of Assyria. And the fourth river is Euphrates. The Forbidden Fruit 15And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it. 16And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: 17But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.

Religion as it applies to daily life and the normal life events we all struggle with. Specifically when compared to non religious platitudes.

Babies Fertilization is the union of the female gamete (egg) and the male gamete (spermatozoa). Following spermatozoa ejaculation inside the vagina, special secretions help them to swim through the cervix towards the uterine tube where fertilization takes place within 24-72h blastocyst after fertilization, the embryo is created from a small group of cells that are constantly dividing inside of a complex structure called the blastocyst. The inner cells of the blastocyst will later become the different tissues and organs of the human body, such as bones, muscles, skin, liver, and heart. When the blastocyst reaches the uterus it implants in the endometrium, the mucus membrane which lines the uterus. The external cells of the blastocyst and the uterine inner lining, together, will create the future placenta. embryo As the blastocyst reaches the final steps in the implantation process into the inner lining of the uterus, it evolves into a structure called an embryo. This is the time when internal organs and external structures develop. The mouth, lower jaw, throat are emerging, while the blood circulation system starts its evolution and a heart tube is created. The ears arise and arms, legs, fingers, toes, and eyes are being shaped. The brain and the spinal cord are already formed, while the digestive tract and sensory organs start their development. The first bones are replacing the cartilage. Fetus By the twelfth week of fertilization the embryo moves into the final stage of development called the fetal stage. By now, the fetus has formed all of the organs and structures necessary for a baby, but those organs still need to grow and develop. Baby The fetus becomes a baby at month eight. The brain is evolving quickly so the baby can see and hear, although the respiratory system requires more time to finish maturing. The baby can weigh approximately 5 pounds. Close to the end of the pregnancy at month 9, the baby responds to stimuli, can move the whole body but space around the new human being is becoming too tight.

What is the truth about the 2nd amendment? Did our founders really want its citizens to be armed so that it could put a tyrannical government in check? Believe it or not we have actual actions by our founders that answers this question. We can learn from history.
