Intellectual Froglegs: “War”, Joe Dan Gorman’s latest transmission. Mr. Gorman comments on the Soviet style show trial of President Donald Trump in New York, spiritual warfare and features an interview with scientist, Dr James Tour.
While, Mr Gorman’s humor is still present, this is a serious and weighty episode. He addresses the full-scale attack on President Trump and concludes God is protecting him with Divine Providence.
I believe the evidence strongly supports Mr Gorman’s conclusion. You have to ask, why with all these attacks on President Trump, is he getting stronger?
I’ve written about spiritual warfare in different posts which means our weapons are not of this world. To fight this war, all we can do is stand, pray, study Scripture, and worship and praise God. As Mr Gorman eloquently points out, “the ammo is free.”
Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.– Ephesians 6:11-12 (ESV)
This is not just another election about policy. What God has presented to the American people, out of the darkness, and plain to see, is evil. You can see evil in our enemies eyes, their speech, their actions and policies. This, because indwelling in their hearts is not the Spirit of the LORD, but demons.
Of course we vote and speak the truth, but only God and His heavenly forces can fight demons. All we can do is stand, armored in God, through, the transformative power of Jesus, and guided by the Holy Spirit.
Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. 14 Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. 16 In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; 17 and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, 18 praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. –Ephesians 6:13-18
Maybe this is God’s timing for the fall of America, or God’s plan for America’s revival. His will be done. Practice obedience to God, have faith in Jesus, and pray always.
Recently sworn in for his second five-year term, President Nayib Bukele has smashed MS-13 as a menace in El Salvador, and is bringing peace and prosperity to a country once known as the murder capital of the world. Tucker Carlson interviews El Salvador President Bukele to find out what makes this man, the “World’s Most Effective Leader.”
Bukele reveals in the one on one , a trait missing in many world leaders: seeking God’s wisdom first in everything. Also discussed, the state of Western Civilization and Bukele’s advice to President Trump. The interview is well-worth your time. Watch:
Perhaps God is placing the seeds of change for Western Civilization in leaders like President Nayib Bukele , Argentinian President Javier Milei and President Trump? All we can do is seek God’s wisdom and His will in prayer.
“President Donald Trump is a convicted felon!” Get used to that term or some variation of it from the mockingbird media from now until November 5, 2024. In fact , embrace it.
When any Dem or other know-nothing tries to troll you about Trump’s conviction , don’t even give them the satisfaction of explaining the injustice of the whole affair. Simply agree with them to the effect of, “Yes he is, and…?
Part of the purpose of these George Soros backed show trials is shaming people over their support of President Trump. I truly believe this time they have miscalculated. Sure, some will fall away, but not as much as the Dems hope. In fact, I predict some Dems peeling away to Trump’s side due to outrage over the communist tactics of the Biden administration.
When the Dems try to shame you, accept the facts as they are. A New York jury convicted Trump on 34 counts that even legal experts failed to grasp until the judge read the verdict. On paper, and in the media, Trump is a convicted felon.
Take away their schadenfreude , by agreeing , “You call Trump a convicted felon, but this is election interference. Trump has my vote. ” When they ask how can you vote for someone like that? Respond simply, “How can you not?” and leave it at that.
Don’t argue. Don’t try to persuade. Forget about showing them the truth. Shrug your shoulders and matter-of-factly state your peace , without emotion or anger.
Throughout history, men and women who changed the world were called criminals or insurrectionists by tyrants. What do you think the British did to the colonists during the Revolutionary War? Racist cops also arrested Martin Luther King in his non-violent campaign for civil rights.
William Wallace was an enemy of the British Crown, and ironically Joan of Arc was burned at the stake for heresy on the day of Trump’s conviction in 1431.
In my last column ,I wrote the Dem conviction of Trump is a Pyrrhic victory and the cost will be greater than the victory. Everything the Dems have thrown at Trump has only increased his poll numbers.
This conviction will cause those numbers to skyrocket, especially when you consider the number of donations to Trump after the show-trial conviction caused his website to crash. A harbinger of things to come? You better believe it.
Legal analysts like Jonathan Hurley believe appellate courts will overturn this sham conviction, but probably not before November. I say this will make Trump’s victory one for the history books.
For now, I am praying for God’s justice to prevail over our satanic enemies. Of course , I want them to repent and turn to Jesus. However, I want the law, the evildoers have weaponized against innocent citizens, to become a terror to the evildoers. I am asking, in God’s will , for His retribution against those who idolize the love of money and power .
And may we also pray for God to use us and our talents in His service and to bless us with the boldness and courage to go where He calls us. I hope you will join in with similar prayers to God
The left can call Trump a convicted felon all they want, but it won’t change the fact, they lied, schemed , and manipulated this outcome. The people see it, and also see the Dems, RINOs (Republicans in name only), the left, and the deep state as the true enemies of our Constitutional Republic.
Keep your faith in God and resist the propaganda. The real verdict comes November 5.

With Father’s Day coming up, these books are excellent gifts.
No matter the verdict in the Trump “Hush -Money” trial in New York, it will go down in history as a travesty of justice. Whatever the outcome, the Democrat Party loses.
Judge Juan Merchan’s jury instructions that a unanimous verdict is not needed for guilt, ensures a Trump conviction will not survive the appellate process. It’s obvious the only importance to the left is Trump, “guilty!” They want to have their mockingbird media headline and narrative of former President and “convicted felon,” Trump.
They want so bad to say those words, they can taste it. Who cares if Democrats destroy America’s judicial system and rule of law in the process?
They better care, because if Trump loses , the Democrats’ victory will be a pyrrhic one. The cost will nullify any the win due to the damage and losses sustained. The losses for the Democrats will be credibility, legitimacy and most importantly , power.
Americans are coming to a realization about the Democrats with the Trump show trials, the wide-open border, the party’s support of transgendered men in women’s sports, its demonization of local law enforcement, its promotion of a two-tiered justice system, and its lust for war, that this party is an enemy to America.
Americans will never unsee , for a least a generation, the spectacle of the Democrats weaponizing the legal system and the intelligence apparatus against a a former President, private citizen and presedential candidate. To use their self-righteous, description for any of their destructive policies, it’s historic.
If there’s a hung jury or , this is highly unlikely, the jury acquits , then the public sees the Democrat lawfare tactics of weaponizing the courts against an opponent, as another form of cheating. Secondarily , anyone , despite their political affiliation will now be able to recognize and label lawfare as political dirty tricks.
If Trump survives this, which I believe he will, the Democrats’ action will surpass Watergate as the benchmark of political illegality.
In the meantime, pray for God, according to His will, to revive this nation and restore a righteous hatred of evil. Pray also for the LORD’s hand of protection over President Trump as he weathers this travesty of justice.
America… under God’s judgement? What does that mean? The country is still standing and life goes on.
On the surface, yes, America is still the major world power, influencing politics and policy globally. Yet spiritually, this is not the same America where the Golden Rule once reigned , marriage was lauded and most families attended church .
I miss that America. God was revered and laws were enforced.
Now we live in a country where madness reigns, the arrogantly ignorant are their own god, and lawlessness prevails. Throughout Scripture are examples of what happens to a nation when it rejects God.
And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.–Romans 1:28-32
Keep in mind, the Apostle Paul wrote this assessment after writing earlier in the chapter of how God is plainly manifested to the world throughout the creation. Therefore, people have no excuse to deny His existence (Romans 1:19-20.). To deny God and to not fear Him is the sign of debased mind.
Another word for debased is reprobate. It means an unprincipled or depraved person. Basically, this person is morally corrupt.
With that definition in mind, is it off base to believe we live in a reprobate culture celebrating madness and codifying insanity? Pardon my rhetorical question, because the proof is clear as mud.
Everywhere, futile thinking reigns, such as the foolishness of allowing race to dictate what laws to enforce, what crime statistics to manipulate, what school discipline to carry out ,and what grades to give. Have you ever thought why in this period of history there are so many incompetent and immoral leaders in charge?
God gave America great thinkers at the founding of this country Now, the nation appears cursed with supreme dolts at our nadir. If the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,(Proverbs 9:10) then not fearing the Lord is the height of folly.
The debased person either ignores entirely, or picks and chooses portions of God’s Word to fit in to their version of reality: a reality where they dictate the terms of good and evil. This has been going on since sin entered the world.
In the ancient world , it was idol worship , carried out in ornate or makeshift tabernacles. In recent history, this distortion of reality took the form of political theory. You know it best as Marxism.
Marxism is the comprehensive theory of history, society and economics, created by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. You can read about it’s development and bloody history here and here.
Marxism is anti-God and therefore, anti-freedom. What makes it both seductive and insidious is its ability to morph into various forms of political theory. We’re seeing it playing out now as wokeness, Critical Race Theory and diversity, inclusion and equity (DIE).
Missing from the core of all these modern theories are the godly traits of love , humility and forgiveness. Instead, you have wrath, division, envy and hatred. These are sinful traits glorified as righteousness in the minds of the unregenerate.
Scripture plainly states the consequences of a nation turning from God. Galatians 6:7 warns nations and people of the danger of mocking God.
Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that hewill also reap.
America and Western Civilization is sowing mockery of God’s law and blasphemy of God’s Word. In doing so, these nations are reaping God’s judgment. Is it any wonder America’s darkness is more than mere political machinations?
Legislatures, packed with worldly men and women, have passed doctrines of demons as law with no concern of societal impact, only political gain. Congress has neither the will nor moral foundation to stand for God’s righteousness.
Yes, there are godly men and women in the House of Representatives and the Senate, but for now they have little power to reverse the patronage and lobbying practices that have corrupted both branches. That of course presumes they are even trying to change the system. In most cases, so-called “Christian” politicians find it easier to compromise their souls for power, rather than standing for God.
What can you say when the Democrat Party is counting on the people’s anger to abortion laws to propel them back to power? What can you say when political realities means the Republicans must compromise with the issue? The very fact of millions of Americans demanding the right to terminate babies in the womb indicates a culture steeped in selfishness and hedonism.
What can you say when schools and libraries in blue states have no issues exposing children to sexualization in the form of Drag Queen Story Hour.
Years ago, teachers in public schools coming out as gay, lesbian, binary or whatever to young children would have been fired and hounded out of school for attempting to sexualize children, now they are celebrated. Meanwhile, the mainstream press and leftist politicians demonize parents ,who complain, as the bad guys.
America degeneracy is such , the left even calls certain biblical passages hate speech. And do many mainstream denominations continue to preach those uncomfortable verses of Scripture?
No, in most instances those churches stand down. Rare is the church where the pastor preaches from Genesis, Exodus, Joshua, Leviticus, 1 and 2 Kings, Chronicles, just to name a few?
And even those churches focusing on the New Testament skip over or rationalize Romans 1 , Corinthians 6:9-10 or the book of Revelation. Are these churches honoring God or reflecting the culture? Obviously, it is the latter and certainly not the former.
We are truly in the last days with such spiritual realities. Is America on its way to becoming another story of a once great nation brought to ruin? It’s whatever God wills.
However, God is still watching over those who truly love Him. So what can we as regenerate believers do?
First, we remember that no matter what happens in the world, God promises never to leave us or forsake His children. We can take this inspiration from Moses’s exhortation to the Israelites as they prepared to take the promised land under the leadership of Joshua
“It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.”– Deuteronomy 31:8
We also place our faith that as sheep, Jesus is our Shepherd and that nothing can snatch us from His hand.
“My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand.I and My Father are one.”— John 10:27-30
Finally, believers must stay on mission; no matter what.What is this task? It is the Great Commission.
And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.– Matthew 28:18-20
America… under God’s judgement? You better believe it. When God judges a nation, it means He’s given it over to its inevitable path of destruction that comes choosing sin over Jesus. Now more than ever, we Christians must dedicate ourselves to spreading the gospel to a lost world.
Many strong Christians still inhabit this country and are praying for this nation and its leaders. If you are not already doing so, start. May we also pray according to God’s will and in the name of Jesus for a nationwide repentance and revival.
Remember: Nothing is impossible with God (Luke 1:37).
Don’t avert your eyes from the rampant government corruption and societal decay you are witnessing. God’s light is exposing the darkness for even the most obtuse to see.
Wednesday’s Senate dismissal of Articles of Impeachment against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkis, reveals a Democrat-led Senate spitting on the Constitution. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tx) issued a blistering rebuke on the Senate floor.
While I have my problems with Sen. Cruz, this speech is on point:
The House impeached Mayorkas for lying to Congress that the U.S southern border is secure. It’s not. Thousands of criminal invaders crossing on a weekly basis testifies of a federal government violating its Constitutional oath to protect American citizens.
We’re witnessing intelligence agencies spying on the American people. Before our eyes, the FBI has morphed into the equivalent of a secret police tasked with surveilling and arresting innocent Americans the U.S. Government deems a threat to its ruling interests.
In recent hearings, Rep. Mike Garca (R-Ca) recently told FBI Director Chris Wray what more and more Americans are thinking, “I don’t trust you.”
Shocking revelations in the last four years, show the FBI working within Facebook, Twitter and other social media to control content and manipulate public opinion to support the interest of the corrupt political class, mostly Democrats. The brilliant Sundance of the Conservative Treehouse, lays out the betrayal of the FBI and the Department of Justice here.
We’re seeing the show trials against President Donald Trump brought about by biased DEI puppets appointed as prosecutors (or is it persecutors?). We watch and understand the reality of sinister interests determined to deprive Americans of their choice for President.

We hear the silence of Republican leadership as the Democrats carry out blatant election interference under Lawfare. Where are the Republican leaders going to microphones daily, condemning the injustice against President Trump?
Yeah, it’s mostly crickets since establishment Republicans want Trump gone just as bad as the Dems and the globalists. Is it any wonder we’ve concluded leadership in both parties are bought and paid for?
Do you know that Congress doesn’t even author its own bills?Representatives and Senators instead, introduce legislation written by lobbyists working for multinational corporations and other special interests.
We’ve come to the realization of government pushing mental illness and sexual perversion as mainstream, worthy of civil rights protection. On the flip side, we see a government antagonistic toward family, Christianity and masculinity.
Why these three areas? It’s not difficult to figure out. Destroy the family and you destroy the bedrock of any society. Counterfeit Chritsiantity, and truth is lost. Demonize masculinity, and the protectors of family and country are cucked.
Put these three areas together and what does this all it add up to? The answer is a weakened country primed for conquest from within.
The evil we face bombards us daily and from all sides. Don’t avert your eyes. Steel your gaze so you will know what to pray for.
Prayer and fasting is needed right now. The evil staring back at us from the abyss is Satanic. This indicates spiritual warfare which means we ask God to intervene and use us on His behalf.
For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.–Ephesians 6:12 (ESV).
Christian men it is time to fight like real men, by getting our knees and praying fervently for revival in America. We must do so with love in our hearts, not with the hatred of our enemies.
For though we walk in the flesh, we are not waging war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ …– 2 Corinthians 10:3-5 (ESV)
Our weapons are heavenly , forged and milled with the absolute truth of God. And in these times we are living , it is crucial to put on our spiritual armor daily.
Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end, keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints…–Ephesians 6:13-18(ESV)
The rampant corruption we face is daunting, demoralizing and wearying on our own strength. The evil seems so encompassing because of the passivity and fecklessness of those tasked to protect and uphold the Constitution.
No longer put your faith in these weak men and women. Place your faith squarely on God through His Son , Jesus. Ask God to deliver America from demonic rule according to His will.
Jesus paid it all for us. We are wretched sinners whom Jesus loved so much that He gave His life for us. Sin must be paid for in blood and Jesus provided the perfect sacrifice, once and for all…
Our Savior now sits at the right hand of God and will return to reclaim His bride: we, the church.
Jesus went to the Father as the Lamb of God, but will return as the Lion of Judah.
Seek Jesus with all of your heart, mind, body and strength. If you know Him, make your relationship more intimate with daily prayer and study of your Bible. And when I mention prayer and study, I mean fervently doing both.
Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.–1Thessalonians 5:16-18
Seek Jesus the first thing you do upon waking. Set aside at least fifteen minutes in the morning where you go into a designated area of your house and spend time reading and meditating the Word of God.
At work, devote the first five to ten minutes of your lunch break with prayers of thanks and praise.Seek Jesus with your family before your evening meal. Before retiring to sleep, go to your designated area or gather the family to offer prayers of gratitude to the LORD.
Seek the Lord and his strength; seek his presence continually!–1 Chronicles 16:11(English Standard Version)
Even if you awake during the night, pray for protection of your family from the powers of darkness as you seek Jesus. Pray for God to destroy Satan’s plans against you, family, friends and even your enemies.
God shall arise, his enemies shall be scattered; and those who hate him shall flee before him! As smoke is driven away, so you shall drive them away; as wax melts before fire, so the wicked shall perish before God! But the righteous shall be glad; they shall exult before God; they shall be jubilant with joy!–Psalm 68:1-3(ESV)
Night is when evil celebrates. The disciples of Satan gather for their pagan rituals, offering up demonic prayers for our destruction.

Never forget that we are in spiritual warfare and the devil hates you because of your faith in Jesus. The devil is the enemy and he only comes to steal, kill and destroy( John 10:10).
Therefore, the world hates you. Why does the world hate Christians? It hates us because it is of their father , the evil one. So it should not surprise you regarding the level of evil reigning not only in America , but globally.
Prayer takes us out of the world and into the presence of the Father , the Son and the Holy Spirit. In our communication with God, we become more familiar to His voice and direction.
If you do not know Jesus as Lord and Savior, I would encourage you to stop reading and ask Him to lead your life. Confess and repent of your sins in thought, word and deed. It really is as simple as that.
The truth is, if you are not spiritually marked with the blood of Jesus, then you are a child of the evil one. That should frighten you because you are God’s enemy and your continuation on this path will lead you straight to hell.
For we were created to worship. If you are not seeking God and His will, then , by default, you are worshipping the devil.
Perhaps you are saying, there are many good people in the world, who do charitable deeds and represent virtuous causes. The truth is there is no one good in the world. Their displays of benevolence are only filthy rags to God.
Without God, virtue lifts up the giver, not the receiver. That’s pride, and isn’t that all you hear about in the world?
God hates pride. He despises haughty eyes and a proud spirit. We are never more like Satan than when we think too highly of our selves, and react with hatred to any perceived slight or offense.
Consider also, the world devotes all of its energy into keeping you from surrendering your life to Jesus.The world will distract you , tempt you , shame you , guilt you , scare you, hate you and even kill you to keep you in bondage.
However, the truth sets you free. Most importantly, the Holy Spirit reveals how powerless you are and how desperately you need Christ.
This level of humility , is when you no longer the darkness of the world. You become a light in a world of darkness and begin to understand why those in darkness hate the light. For light exposes their evil deeds, revealing their actions to their minds and conscience.
Intellectual Froglegs: “Orange Crush”, the latest installment from patriot Joe Dan Gorman. My only gripe about this site is I wish I could post these shows weekly. That’s how good they are.
This episode spotlights the irony that the worst RINO’s ( Republicans In Name Only) represent reds states. He also features an exclusive interview with Dr. Naomi Wolf.
In an historic, unanimous decision, the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) smacks down Colorado’s attempt to remove President Donald Trump from the ballot due to the 14th Amendment. This 9-0 ruling effectively stops the efforts of other states to do the same.
Here’s the media reaction. First, from Fox:
CNN:
BBC:
and finally, NBC.
This is a major victory for President Trump and for America. Praise the Lord!
