One of Charlie Kirk's favourite verses:

Isaiah6-8s.png

Isaiah 6 v 8 Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying: “Whom shall I send? Who will go for Us?” And I said: “Here am I. Send me!”

Apparently Elon Musk has begun posting scripture on his profile. "Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespassed against us...."

He seems to be really influenced by the non-stop church service Charlie's memorial turned into.

Jordan Peterson had been talking to Musk about belief in God before ....but Jordan is not really a good person to understand what the Gospel message is all about.

But....Even Trump seemed to be moved today as well....and he is rather hard hearted.

And as a result both Elon and Trump buried the hatchet.

The band is getting back together again.

And then there are a bunch of people like this:

I was there, barely made it in, sat in the very top of the nose bleed section. It was stressful outside, the crowd was so big it was obvious that many would not get in, but everyone was disciplined, they helped those in need (some were fainting, needed to sit, heat stroke, etc). There was no shoving, pushing or trampling. I never would have made it in were it not for a "genius" named Shawn, kudos to him. Also, there was a man who simply handed me a bottle of water out of his own pocket, probably the difference (I had to park 3 miles away and walk to the event, by the time I got there I was already sweating heavily).

Wow, you have no idea!

I was awake at 3:30, took care of issues that I can't discuss prior to going to the event. It took me an hour and a half to walk back to the car after I left the event, it was hot, I was exhausted, that was after 5 pm and then I had a 7 hour drive to my hotel for the night.

My sister and family were able to go to a Trump rally. Same story, lots of walking and waiting for hours in the heat. They got in and my youngest nephew believes with all his heart that president Trump saw him and waved at him. He was ecstatic. But my you certainly had a full day! I think it would take me a week to recover from that. But I would have liked to attend. The room seemed electrified with the Holy Spirit, it seemed more of a church service from what we saw. Hubby convinced me some time ago we needed a big, huge, TV in the living room. I'm glad I have it now, (don't tell him). It seemed like we were sitting there in the room with everyone else. Glad you got the opportunity to attend.

WATCH: Don Lemon Claims Being Christian in Public Is ‘Religious Nationalism.’

Disgraced former CNN host turned social media personality Don Lemon denounced slain Turning Point USA (TPUSA) founder Charlie Kirk‘s memorial service this past Sunday, stoking fear about Christianity in public life. During Lemon’s latest YouTube podcast episode of The Don Lemon Show, the liberal pundit asserted that essentially any public display of the Christian faith—out of step with a left-wing political message—is tantamount to “Religious Nationalism.”

“So what I say now is what happened in Arizona this weekend was not just a memorial, it was something else entirely,” Lemon claimed on his podcast, continuing: “People will tell you it is about grief, about honoring a man’s life, about faith, and on the surface, you know, maybe it looked like that. Tens of thousands gathered, the music swelled. I’m sure some of you saw it… but if you stayed long enough… if you listened long enough… you could feel the ground shifting beneath you, because this wasn’t just about a man who died; this was about a movement claiming divine permission to rule.”

Despite admitting that he had not actually watched any of the memorial service live but only clips of the mourners posted to social media, Lemon went on to contend, “It was a revival meeting wrapped in a memorial… a political rally dressed as church!”

“And by the end of the night, it was clear, this was not only about Charlie Kirk’s death, it was about his afterlife in politics… The crowd cheered as if the passing of the man lit some sort of sacred fire! To me, this was not mourning. It was mobilization!”

“Here is where we have to tell the truth here. What we saw in that arena was not simply faith finding public expression; it was religious nationalism on full display,” Lemon concluded, adding: “That is my truth.”

Although I don't agree with the claim that this was "religious natinalism" I do agree with his statement "And by the end of the night, it was clear, this was not only about Charlie Kirk's death, it was about his afterlife in politics". All those politicians at the event not simply because Charlie was their friend which they said he was, but most said it was to thank him for helping them get elected. What was clear to me was how absolutely critical this organization is to Trump's populist movement.

Something Ericka said I thought was revealing, she talked about how you are marked by every decision you make indicating that behind the scenes there is tremendous pressure on her as the new CEO.
