And so another nominee to President Trump’s cabinet takes office, as Kash Patel is sworn in as FBI Director.
U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi carried out the swearing in ceremony Friday , with Patel’s wife and children present . Watch his full speech:
The Senate confirmed Patel by a vote of 51-49. Republicans Lisa Murkowski (Ak) and Susan Collins (ME) voted no. Mitch McConnell who vote against every other high profile Trump nominee , voted yes for Patel.
And he said to them,” Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. Mark 15-16.
Our primary Christian duty is to carry out the Great Commission. We are to call people to repentance and salvation by preaching Christ to the world. We are to preach Christ, crucified and resurrected.
Jesus did not come into the temporal, fully man and fully God to make the world a better place through peace and unity. You wouldn’t know that based on the shaky doctrine taught in most mainstream denominations , but the Bible backs this up.
“Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword. For I have come to ‘set[a] a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law’; and ‘a man’s enemies will be those of his own household.’–Matthew 10:34-36 (NKJV)
Preaching Christ means not only rejection from the world, but also from one’s own family members. The problem is the world is in darkness and hates the light.
And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.”– John 3:19-21
Christians reflect the light of Jesus when they seek Him with all heart, mind and strength . We become a beacon in a world of darkness.
Satan has annexed many former houses of worship into his kingdom.. You can tell these places because there is no fear of God and therefore, no wisdom (Proverbs 9:10). These churches ignore the authority of Scripture, picking and choosing verses to fit their agenda. They don’t preach repentance and salvation, but instead, prosperity, or being the best person you can be. The Apostle Paul warned of these times in 2 Timothy 4:3-4:
For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.
False doctrine are ideas adding to, reducing , perverting or nullifying God’s Word. False teachers deviate from scripture, denying Holy truths about God and leading the deceived from Christ, to hell.
But the lost sinner does not know this. Their rationale for seeking a church is a place with nice people, a positive message, and convenience. They hear, without discernment, the sermon of the liberal male, female or gay pastor telling them sin is merely a state of mind and that Christ welcomes everyone.
Lies like those, are why God-fearing Christians must be vigorous and unyielding in our testimony about the one true Christ. Sinners must hear why God sent Jesus to ransom them from Satan’s bondage.
Telling the truth in a time of widespread deception is the ultimate rebellion; but so be it. As Christians we are in , but not of the world (John 15:18-19), therefore, we must preach Christ whenever the Holy Spirit prompts us.
“It’s not revenge he’s after. It’s a reckoning.” Doc Holiday, from the movie Tombstone (1993)
President Donald Trump is not seeking revenge on Democrats, RINO’s and the Deep State, he’s moving toward a reckoning. Believe it.
Merriam Webster Dictionary describes a day of reckoning as:
a time when the consequences of a course of mistakes or misdeeds are felt
Democrats sense that day is coming. Look at their panic over the Department of Government Efficiency’s (DOGE) audit findings of fraud and waste in departments such as USAID and FEMA.
Musk recently mentioned in an Oval Office press conference, a cursory DOGE examination of the Social Security Administration revealing payments going to 150-year-old recipients. Watch the left go Defcon 1 level bananas when that full audit is launched.
Meanwhile, note Obama-appointed federal judges countermanding Trump’s Executive Orders. Can we say, bad optics?
First, the Dems look like raving fools defending government waste instead of siding with taxpayers. Second, as Vice President JD Vance rightly tweeted , judges are trying to control the president. In his tweet, Vance also cited Harvard Law Professor Adrian Vermeule who says:
“Judicial interference with legitimate acts of state, especially the internal functioning of a co-equal branch, is a violation of the separation of powers.”
Senator Tom Cotton succinctly echoed this outrage in another tweet:
Outrageous. Obama Judge Paul Engelmayer didn’t just bar Elon Musk and DOGE from Treasury systems, he barred the Secretary of the Treasury himself. Without citing a single law or even allowing Trump admin to appear in court! This outlaw should be reversed immediately and Engelmayer should be forbidden by higher courts from ever hearing another case against the Trump admin.
Put simply, judges are to interpret the law, not micromanage the executive actions of a President. In the same way, a president cannot dictate how a judge is to interpret the law.
“But, but… Elon Musk and DOGE are causing a Constitutional crisis!” the Dems shriek. “Musk and his hackers, led by ‘Big Balls’, are a threat to the people’s private information!”
Ok, but riddle me this? When is the last time you heard the Dems expressing such righteous concern over people’s data? Remember all those Congressional hearings the Dems called for every time a major data breach occurred? Oh, that’s right, there weren’t any.
Dems are using, against Elon, the Saul Alinsky tactic of picking a target, freezing it, personalizing it and polarizing it. Media echo chamber aside, it’s not working.
Despite the media’s efforts to demonize Trump, voters gave him both the electoral college and popular vote in his landslide .
Elon backed Trump after the Butler Pennsylvania assassination attempt. A prominent fixture at Trump rallies, voters enthusiastically welcomed Musk’s support.
Therefore, Dems, a majority elected Trump. By default, they also support the talented individuals– like Elon, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr, Kash Patel, etc.– Trump wants to carry out his policies and to keep his promises to the people.
But you wouldn’t know about putting the people first. Your loyalties are to a corrupt system that fleeces the taxpayer, while enriching yourselves.
Unfortunately, that corrupt system also extends to activist federal judges blocking the people’s efforts of upending the status quo of fraud and graft. This corruption is what’s really unconstitutional, not DOGE informing the people of government fraud and waste.
Trump could rightly ignore the federal rulings and may do so. He could also use the bully pulpit to suggest Congress impeach these judges. That’s a possibility. However, it appears Trump wants the Supreme Court to decide this.
On paper, the appeal looks like a constitutional slam dunk for SCOTUS where this issue of jurisdiction could be decided once and for all. Everyone’s got a pretty good idea where the libs on the court will fall on the matter. The wild card is Chief Justice John Roberts, and to a lesser degree, Justice Amy Coney Barrett. But, we’ll see.
Meanwhile, Trump’s m.o. is to work within the rule of law instead of subverting it as the Democrats do. Will the law come in the form of a SCOTUS slap down, Congressional impeachment and conviction in the Senate, or will Trump simply ignore the rulings?
Either way, Trump’s got the law as his weapon of reckoning, and that’s what’s scaring the hell out of Democrats.
Tulsi Gabbard and Robert F Kennedy’s confirmation as the Director of National Intelligence and Sec. of Health and Human Services, respectively, was never in doubt, Imho. Democrats delayed the process because it’s all they have.
Attorney General Pam Bondi swore in Gabbard in her official role as DNI after President Donald Trump’s introduction.
The Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) is a position created by the Patriot Act after the 9-11 terrorist attack. On paper, the DNI serves as the head of the 18 intelligence agencies and serves as a principal advisor to the President.
Historically, Democrat Presidents have had little use for the department. President Barack Obama, in his effort to weaponize intelligence agencies for his purposes, appointed the clueless idiot James Clapper as a figurehead.
President Trump’s first DNI, Dan Coats, was aDeepState asset, who tried to undermine Trump at every turn. Richard Grenell, and later John Ratcliffe who is now the head of the CIA, took Coats’ place. Both Grenell and Ratcliffe spent their time protecting Trump from the Deep State loyalists in the various intelligence agencies trying to sandbag his policies.
Avril Haines served as Biden’s DNI. Never heard of her until researching this post. Haines (of course) made history as the first woman appointed to the role (whatever).
Other than her confirmation process, Haines’ press is sparse. I think it’s safe to assume she was just another cog in the incompetent machine that was the Biden Administration.
Gabbard has the opportunity to carry out the duties of the DNI as originally intended by the Patriot Act. I’m thinking under Trump this will be the case.
Like Gabbard, RFK Jr. endured a bruising confirmation process. He will be the first Health and Human Services Secretary not a sycophant of Big Pharma as he takes over for Biden HHS Sec. Dr. Rachel Levine (the less said about the this doctor, the better).
Kennedy, a proponent of vaccines , is nonetheless skeptical of the ages of when children should first have the jabs. He believes objective research should truthfully reveal any and all side effects of vaccines and other medications.
Democrats continue to slander Kennedy as staunchly anti-vax which is a blatant lie.
RFK, Jr resonates with Trump supporters because he dares ask why are more Americans chronically ill and why has childhood autism risen exponentially? Making American Healthy Again (MAHA) is his mission.
Supreme Justice Neil Gorsuch swore in RFK, Jr. Watch Kennedy’s speech in full here:
BTW, what do Gabbard, RFK, Jr and Pete Hegeseth all have in common? Republican Mitch McConnell voted against all of them.
I’m thinking we can add Kash Patel and Linda McMahon to that list when they are finally confirmed to FBI Director and United States Education Secretary. This will occur after Democrats can no longer drag out the confirmation process and without McConnell’s vote.
Again, never in doubt.
To say that Democrats are unraveling over USAID revelations in a headline is an understatement. They’re outraged, not at the waste of taxpayer funds revealed by Department of Government Efficiency, but at DOGE for exposing it.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt shared a list of some of United States Agency for International Development budget expenditures at a recent press briefing.

Methinks the left doth protest too much. Their unhinged reaction tells you all you need to know about the importance of USAID to leftist causes and strategies.
The Dems’ collective rage may have distracted in the past , but Trump’s return to the presidency has sparked a cultural shift. All their tantrums are doing now is further opening the public’s eyes to USAID as political influence operation of the CIA and State Department, and a massive money laundering source . Natalie Winters succinctly describes this process.
The secrecy of the USAID grant database is by design.

Why do leftist women always look so pissed off? But I digress.
Late Show Host Stephen Colbert has no idea what he is talking about. Defunding USAID is not unconstitutional.
Colbert is correct when he said USAID was created by President John F. Kennedy. However he left out an important detail of Kennedy creating USAID by Executive Order.
Why is this important? Executive Orders of one president can be undone by an EO of another president. Executive Orders usually last the term of the president , that Kennedy’s lasted for over 60 years means both parties benefitted from this department in one way or another.
Speaking of EO ‘s , President Trump’s rapid policy blitz is driving the left bonkers. Piece by piece, Trump is methodically dismantling the silos of Democrat influences.
Crews removing the signage from the building that housed USAID is symbolic of this process of defunding the left, removing spheres of propaganda and dismantling the Deep State.
MAGA is in full throttle and its only been three weeks since President Trump’ s inauguration. Frankly, it’s both hilarious and glorious to witness.
If there is one consistency in the Senate confirmation hearings of Kash Patel, Tulsi Gabbard, and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., it is their poise in the face of desperation.
Senate Dems look bad in these hearings. I mean B.A.D!

Whatever doubts about the UniParty as shills for Big Pharma, the military-industrial complex, the intelligence community and globalists are gone. Their Democrats’ dedication is not protecting the American people, but maintaining the narrative of January 6 as an existential threat to democracy, benign forced vaccines and an above -board 2020 Presidential Election.
Rude, condescending, and petulant is not a good look in a political reality where nearly 60 percent of the American public disapprove of the Democrat Party.
Trump won in a landslide, both the Electoral College and the popular vote. A majority of the American people want Trump to turn this country around.
Dem /RINO feigned histrionics and moral outrage is falling on deaf ears. Simply put, the American public believes President Trump should have his nominees in place to do the job they elected him for.
Contributing to this futility? The public believes Dems, the UnParty and legacy media, lie. That’s a huge cultural shift.
It’s not just we who know this, but also RFK, Jr, Patel and Gabbard. You can see it in their faces , amused by the desperate interrogations of the UniParty.
They’re neither flustered nor unsettled. The well-worn tactics of UniParty hacks demanding a yes-or no answer and never giving the nominee an opportunity to respond have become a worn-out schtick.

These are just a few examples of the pathetic stature of Democrats and the Uniparty during these hearings. Their desperation is magnified in light of the nominees’ poise.
And what is the source of such distress? You know it as fear and it’s oozing from every pore of the UniParty.
To quote the legacy media, “the walls are closing in” on the UniParty/Deep State . Keep pressing in with prayer: the Dems and the UniParty are becoming unhinged and unglued before everyone.
Meanwhile, remember this mockingbird media classic compilation ?
Captain America shouldn’t represent America? That’s what Captain America :Brave New World star, Anthony Mackie said in a recent European interview.
As of this writing, Marvel Studios is in major damage control mode.
Mackie released this statement after the backlash:
Hey @AnthonyMackie this seems insincere and reads like it was written by a publicist and I suspect @MarvelStudios demanded you release it to try to avoid 77 million proud Americans putting this movie on their do not watch list. pic.twitter.com/1QEGQT5Tug
— Southern Libertarian (@So_Libertarian) January 29, 2025
Here’s why Mackie stepped in it.
“For me Captain America represents a lot of different things and I don’t think the term, you know, America should be one of those representations. Like, uh, it’s about a man who keeps his word, who has honor , dignity and integrity…”
Woke actor Anthony Mackie says Captain America should not represent America:
— Benny Johnson (@bennyjohnson) January 28, 2025
“He represents a lot of different things & I don’t think the term ‘America’ should be one of those representations.”
Time to boycott the new Captain America movie.
pic.twitter.com/aqQimCMGIZ
Mr. Mackie, the character’s name is Captain America and besides that, he wears a costume based on the American flag. How can you expect him not to represent the country?
The character debuted in World War 2 punching out a certain Nazi dictator on the cover of his first comic issue and has stood and fought for American ideals ever since.
Either Mackie felt he had to say this in front of a European audience to promote the film, or this is what he really thinks. Whatever the case, this guy who plays the title role of, who I like to call, “Captain African-American”, has given the viewing public yet another reason not to waste their money on this movie.
Captain America : Brave New World has gone through multiple re-shoots due to disastrous test screenings and is experiencing underwhelming advance ticket sales. In other words, insiders expect another Disney movie flop.
The problem with the movie is it features Captain America, but without Steve Rogers, the one and only Star Spangled Avenger. Mackie was originally The Falcon in the Marvel Universe, a historical character as Marvel Comics’ second black superhero.
Frankly, Marvel messed up passing Captain America’s shield to Sam Wilson/aka The Falcon. He was a perfectly fine and likable character in his own right. Why make him a hand-me-down hero?
Yes Sam Wilson became Cap in the comics, back in the 2010’s but sales tanked on the book .
Woke politics caused Marvel to virtue signal, race-swapping the character. Fans hated the change, voicing Cap should have passed the mantle to Bucky,/The Winter Soldier his friend from World War 2 who, like Rogers was enhanced by the super soldier serum.
Bucky was a more successful Captain America in the comics because of the dynamic of him once being the brainwashed assassin, the Winter Soldier.
The problem most fans have with the new Captain America is he doesn’t have super strength. He just a regular guy with mechanical wings.
Anthony Mackie is a likable actor, but, sorry, he’s best as a supporting actor, not a leading man. Marvel knows this which is why Red Hulk is in the movie to boost ticket sales. At least that what Marvel execs are hoping.
But now those hopes are waning with Mackie’s ill-advised comments.
Captain America : Brave New World is scheduled for release during Black History Month (coincidence?) on February 14.
I caught this link on Citizen Free Press with two links “Attention Susie Wiles/Make sure President Trump sees this nightmare J6 story” and “So much worse than you can imagine”
In case you’re wondering who is Susie Wiles? She is President Trump’s Chief of Staff who advises him on policy issues one of the most important duties of the chief is maintaining the flow of information.
In one his first Executive Orders, President Trump pardoned and/or commuted the sentences of 1500 J6 protestors, most of whom committed the “crime” of protesting the results of a questionable 2020 Presidential Election.
Michael Shane Daughtry tells his story as a J6 survivor and it is a shocking story of corruption and tyranny. You must read this account in its unsettling entirety.
It begins :
My name is Michael Shane Daughtry and this is my January 6th Story.
— Sarah Fields (@SarahisCensored) January 25, 2025
I was a Police Officer with SWAT and Sniper Certifications, 20+ years Police experience and over a thousand hours of training. I'm also a Master Gunsmith with a Federal Firearms License and a Gunsmithing…
Hopefully, Chief of Staff Wiles directs President Trump to this story, if she has not already done so. Trump needs to exact justice in the form of investigations, arrests, convictions, lawsuits and mass firings of corrupt government and law-enforcement officials.
Dems and RINO’s say J6 was one of the darkest days in our country’s history. They were right, but not for the “threat to democracy” narrative they tried to push.
What J6 illustrates is government’s ability to trample over all of your Constitutional rights when its full weight is unleashed on innocent citizens.
What happened to the J6ers can easily happen to any of us in America, the land of the free and the home of the brave. That’s a scary reality.
Trump must expose every sordid detail of how government entrapped and abused these patriotic citizens. This must never happen again.
This is why President Trump is a leader and Democrats are profiles in failure. Trump calls out LA Mayor Karen Bass over wildfire recovery delays during a live press conference.
In her best liberalese, Bass touted how city and county officials are partnering up to streamline the bureaucracy for desperate homeowners. “We’re doing everything we can , slashing regulations…so you can get rebuilding asap. ”
Bass cited hazardous materials concern as a delay for clearing the lots. That’s code for hazardous waste/environmental cleanup, which means companies bidding, leading to longer delays. Trump, because he’s a builder, immediately called B.S. Watch:
So what is the timeline Mayor Bass? Is it 18 months , six months or what? Trump told Bass and the press, several people told him rebuilding could not start for 18 months, which she vehemently denied.
Watch the video again . Did you notice how Mayor Bass left herself wiggle room with her answers not committing to definite timeline?
She then gives the answer that justifies liberal mission creep and every extra added expense: “We’re going to move as fast as we can, but we want you to be safe.”
Funny how this worry for “safety” comes after revelations of poor forest mitigation, lack of controlled burns and making sure reservoirs and fire hydrants were filled. Now safety is a concern when people are itching to clean up and begin the rebuilding process?
That call for safety is how liberalism infantilizes people and takes away their inborn desire for self-reliance and self-sufficiency. Trump calling for the common sense solution of government getting out of the way is a sharp contrast to the Democrat mantra of government will take care of you.
What do you get with a twice elected president, enduring a “sermon” by a woke bishop ? You get a woke National Prayer Service.
For decades, the tradition in Washington DC has the newly inaugurated president attending the National Prayer Service.
Forget about prayers in the name of Jesus for the country and the President. This year, President Trump instead got a lecture on mercy for LGBTQ and illegal immigrants.
Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde, the Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Washington DC and the first woman to hold the position, took the last two minutes of her “sermon” pleading for Trump to have “mercy” on the LGBTQ community and illegal immigrants frightened by his re-election. Watch:

I have to give President Trump credit for not walking out of the service . That’s the first thing I would have done.
No, Bishop Budde, if the rainbow crowd is scared, it’s because leftists like you are fanning the flames.
No doubt the First and Second family were blindsided by this shameful sermon. Nothing like expecting Biblical truth and getting Democrat talking points in its place. The question is how did Trump’s team not anticipate the likely message from this leftist?
The Episcopalian Church may profess believing in and following the teachings of Jesus Christ, but they have shoehorned the Savior of the World into the gospel of leftist politics and culture.
The President’s team definitely should have screened this clergyperson, especially since the Episcopalian Church is highly political.
This denomination has fractured in recent years because of pedal- to-the- metal support of ordaining homosexual clergy, officiating same-sex marriage and supporting abortion rights. Diversity and inclusion are its tenets, not repentance of sin and surrender to Christ as Lord and Savior . Budde’s diatribe brings to mind 2 Peter 2:1 (NKJV):
But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction.
Perhaps clergy like her are why the Bible prohibits females as pastors, as the Apostle Paul said in 1 Tim. 2:12:
And I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, but to be in silence.
A reporter tried to play gotcha after the service only to have President Trump turn the tables. Watch:
When reporters asked Trump what he thought of the National Prayer Service:

Where was scripture in this sermon? Sure, Budde mentioned God, but only as a cudgel in her attempt to shame President Trump.
Budde’s lecture is , of course viral. Yes, she has plenty of supporters, but also many detractors.
Trump is demanding an apology, rightly so. Budde told NPR Wednesday she refuses to apologize.
In my research, I discovered the National Cathedral is part of the Episcopal Church. Because of the liberal politics of the denomination which I detailed earlier, President Trump would do well to simply boycott all services at the National Cathedral and designate another more Biblically sound church for national prayer and services.
