Do you seriously believe we ever had a president who had God's interest at heart? Or ever will?
I don't know for sure but my quick answer would be NO.

Trusting Our Intelligence Agencies: Volume #1


1. FBI TODAY:
Today the Associated Press won a LAWSUIT against the FBI, because the FBI was BREAKING THE LAW by REFUSING to release records (about their own wrongdoing) in a FOIA request.

LINK: News from The Associated Press

A. The FBI hired hackers to break into iPhones.
B. The FBI lied publicly, and said hacking into an iPhone was impossible.
C. The truth was exposed, but the FBI REFUSED to turn over information in a LEGAL FOIA REQUEST.
D. The ASSOCIATED PRESS had to SUE the FBI, to get the documents about the hacking.

So the FBI was hiring hackers, breaking into things, lying about it, and then ignored their LEGAL REQUIREMENT to release documents about their crimes in a FOIA request... and finally had to be SUED.

Nice.

Gee, I can't see any reason not to trust them.


2. FBI 4 Months Ago:
The FBI tries to HIDE information about the Hillary investigation from Congress, so Congress has to issue FBI a SUBPOENA on national television.


A. Congress had the right and responsibility to see all investigation records from the FBI case.
B. The FBI just REFUSED to turn the investigation records over to Congress.
C. Congress had to issue a SUBPOENA to the FBI, and FORCE THEM to turn over records about Hillary.

So, the FBI is investigating Hillary, refuses to turn the information over to Congress (obviously hiding it for some reason), and the Congress has to issue a subpoena to FBI to legally force them to turn over their information.

Nice.

Gee, I can't see any reason not to trust them.

Conclusions:

A. I think that every time people want to cry about how much we should trust our SPOTLESS, PURE, INNOCENT intelligence agencies... I'll just post a few more incidents like these.

B. These incidents of corruption in intelligence agencies are virtually endless... this is not a winning game for the liberals.

It's likely one of the hardest things in the world to remember that our elections are NOT for us to elect a preacher or priest.

So jealously blind.
Hi Willie

I had to come back to this one, when I answered before we were running out the door for supper.

I have no jealousy for the rich. As one who brings in more than 92% of all Americans, I have no reason to be jealous of anyone. Instead, I am extremely concerned for that 92%. And as stated in another thread, my wife and I do all we can to spread our wealth to them. Jealousy never enters the picture.

I posted 45 scriptures all saying to not seek wealth or horde riches. Your response was to call me jealous. Since those were actually God's words and not mine, would you then say God is jealous of the rich? Or that God supports riches and wealth in any form, shape, or fashion?

No, but I would say that someone who fills three screens claiming because people of means are in Trump's cabinet, that their motives are greed.... has a problem with $.

Pointing out "The Truth" is merely stating what he did. BASHING is claiming to know why he did it, and blaming your own political failings on his actions.
OK then,no one bashed him as you said In post# 809.

I honestly don't think we have had a president who walked into a nation as divided as the Muslim has made this one. I think it started in earnest when he unnecessarily announced that if he had a son, he would look just like Travon..... but not Michael Brown.

I have a problem with

1. People who horde riches, because they cheat others out of their fair share and violate God's word

2. People who support people who do no. 1, even to their own detriment.

But I know that I'm in the minority. I know that the average American will fight till they are under a bridge to support their right to be treated as slaves.

You put up more than 3 screens supporting the rule of wealth. What does that say about you?

(Not pointing a finger, just asking).

According to God's word, we should ALL have a problem with $.

Hillary, Obama, and the whole Dim party have not been blaming Comey? What have I missed?.... I thought I heard it broadcast from CA to ME.
I would say Comey coming out with that Info at the time that he did,did Indeed hurt Clinton and pointing out that truth Is not BASHING Comey,It's merely pointing out the truth.

I helped someone navigate that mess. They ended up with a Blue Shield PPO plan. The plans we looked at on the marketplace were identical to the ones offered off the marketplace, in both cost and benefits. The only difference is marketplace plans offered subsidies. And no, even then it's not affordable.



I have successfully used Obamacare through MnSure which protects Minnesotans who do not have coverage. But as I will soon turn 65 I will now be under Medicare so that I will no longer be covered by ACA.


Interestingly, Republican politician Marsha Blackburn bought into the idea that ACA is unpopular or that it doesn't work. When she asked her Twitter followers about it, she was surprised to see that the vast majority of her friends supported it:



Republican lawmaker's Twitter poll on repealing Obamacare just backfired completely


Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tennessee) just conducted a Twitter poll about Obamacare repeal, and it definitely didn’t go as planned.Rep. Blackburn decided to ask her roughly 26,500 Twitter followers if they supported repealing the Affordable Care Act, and to respond “yes” by retweeting, and commenting on the tweet as to what they’d like to see as its replacement. But Rep. Blackburn and her Republican ilk appear to be vastly in the minority, according to her Twitter poll.


more at link ...


Two years ago Congresswoman Cathy McMorris Rodgers had a similar on shock on her Facebook account because while President Obama has been widely criticized by the far right for ACA, there are millions who benefited from it. There is now some discussion that Republicans are actually looking to replace it with a system that actually works. Let us hope so. After all, I have said before, I am willing to give Trump his chance at backing up his words. Time will tell whether he does or not.

"The eye of a needle" is scripture quoting Jesus recorded in the synoptic gospels: I tell you the truth, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.


Matt 19:24




Perhaps Trump will be persuaded to give away all his wealth to the poor and that he will persuade other elites to do the same so that they can enter the Kingdom. What a great example that would be for all.

No body is entitled to anything. What's a fair share? If the 92% want those riches, they need to work for it.

Because the greater danger are those who horde power and authority like a dragon.

And they feast upon hearts and minds like yours, beckoning for you to give to Caesar what is due to the Lord.

Sorry. I guess you misunderstood. I didn't mean three posts; I applaud that. What I meant was flooding one single post with at least three screen's worth of scrolling down to find the bottom.

Uh...... You ever checked out his philanthropy? It would shock you how much he, personally, gives to others. I already knew he was generous, and it still shocked me.

BTW. Trump just exposed the existing division of this country for all to openly see and deal with. It is Obama who has been subversively creating division among us for nearly a decade.
