OF COURSE the media was silent about how the so-called various “immigrant caravans” of the last couple of years made it across the Mexican border, marched thousands of miles through Mexico and then end up in the USA.
So maybe the Mexican military just watched as hundreds of illegal immigrants walked around Mexico?
2020 promises more new stories about immigrants from south of the US border.

“Most people want security in this world, not liberty.”

SATAN’S MOUTHPIECE: The Corporate Media
‘America is winning again like never before’: Trump hails his ‘blue collar boom’ as he addresses world leaders in Davos – just hours before his impeachment trial begins
Trump touts “thriving” U.S., rejects warnings from “prophets of doom” at Davos forum – ALL modern US presidents use trips out of the country as stages to perform for the folks sitting back at home.
Donald Trump is more of the same.
“Meet the new boss…same as the old boss.”
–The Who, Won’t get fooled again
HOW Donald Trump wins (w/VIDEO) – A great example of the tales spun by the media tale spinners, refer to the completely fabricated numbers from the media’s polls. These talking heads tell stories about every conceivable facet of Donald Trump.
Most of the poll stories told to the public are false. A few of the stories may–quite incidentally–be true.
But truth is in no way a requirement for ANY of the stories which are spun.
“Doctors are saying the result of President Trump’s physical revealed that he is borderline obese. In fairness, he did promise us growth.”
–Conan (2018)
“Recently, the president promised to hand out his fake news awards to the most corrupt and dishonest media. Trump continually complains that coverage by the mainstream media is negative. And that is true, of course it’s been negative — when you cover a train wreck you don’t give equal time to the train.”
–-Jimmy Kimmel (2018)
Donald Trump Prophecy?
“Freedom is not empowerment. Empowerment is what the Serbs have in Bosnia. Anybody can grab a gun and be empowered. It’s not entitlement. An entitlement is what people on welfare get, and how free are they? It’s not an endlessly expanding list of rights the “right” to education, the “right” to food and housing. That’s not freedom, that’s dependency. Those aren’t rights, those are the rations of slavery hay and a barn for human cattle.”
-—P.J. O’Rourke
QUOTES: A Few Thoughts on Voting
“The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.”
—Winston Churchill
Others might insist that a five-minute conversation with one of the political puppets is the best argument against democracy.
Things of This World: Faith and Trust in Politics
“But actually, he thought as he readjusted the Ministry of Plenty’s figures, it was not even forgery. It was merely the substitution of one piece of nonsense for another. Most of the material that you were dealing with had no connection with anything in the real world, not even the kind of connection that is contained in a direct lie. Statistics were just as much a fantasy in their original version as in their rectified version. A great deal of time you were expected to make them up out of your head.”
–On changing government statistics – George Orwell, Nineteen Eighty-Four
POLLS: Another Way to Lie
Do you believe the media? Then why do you believe their lying polls?
“Political campaigns today are all side shows, all honors, all bombast, glitter, and speeches. These are for the most part unrelated to the main business of studying the party scientifically, of supplying the public with party, candidate, platform, and performance, and selling the public these ideas and products.”
—Edward Bernays, Propaganda (1928)
POLLS: The Fiction of Polls and Public Opinion
“There is no public opinion. There is only published opinion.”
–Winston Churchill
The Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy and Polls
“But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.”
—John 20:31
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
-–Romans 1:16
THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST
“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
–1 Corinthians 15:1-8
“For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.”
-—1 Corinthians 1:18-19

ALL Sin Is Rebellion Against God
A MACRO GOD ON A MICRO LEVEL
MACRO
large : on a large scale
MICRO
involving minute quantities or variations
Most people have little problem visualizing God operating on a large (MACRO) scale; i.e. on a level where He deals with nations, kings and whole civilizations.;
Even the heathen see God as larger-than-life: juggling lighting bolts, causing earthquakes; smiting the earth with disease and plagues.
Most men appear to see God as a MACRO God: huge, imposing and wielding great and terrible power.
SO, it is little wonder that many might have problems imaging God working–as He so often does–on a MICRO level: one-on-one, personal, unique; employing His unlimited power to aid and assist a single person, in what most refer to as a “miracle.”
Often, even the person who benefited from such a miracle has a hard time giving proper credit to God. There is something which compels the average person to search for a reason BEYOND GOD for the cause of the miraculous.
Perhaps most know how the world treats those who claim to be beneficiaries of a miracle from God.
The world is quick to label ANYONE who considers a miracle from God to have taken place.
MOST of those labels are derogatory.
A few examples are “primitive,” “simple-minded” or even “stupid.”
It seems the world also considers God–even those of the world who claim they do not believe in God–operating on a MACRO, rather than a MICRO level.
One bit of evidence of this is that there are many worldly men who still refer to storms, earthquakes and tornadoes as an “act of God.” IN FACT, in much of the English-speaking world, an act of God is ingrained in the legal system.
In legal usage throughout the English-speaking world, an act of God[1] is a natural hazard outside human control, such as an earthquake or tsunami, for which no person can be held responsible.
Yet, many who still use the term “act of God‘ in a legal sense fail miserably to comprehend when the act of God strikes closer to home and DOES NOT refer to a disaster.
Man’s–particularly MODERN man’s–inability to grasp God’s desire to show Himself on a personal level could be considered a modern “failure of imagination.”
What else to call man’s refusal to attribute the things of God to God Himself?
And to all who believe that God only works on a sweeping MACRO level: what is a nation or kingdom or civilization but a collection of many individual men?

NEW AGE LEADERS GIVE A BOOST TO THE PRE-TRIBULATION RAPTURE DECEPTION
The flesh-indulging deception of the pre-tribulation rapture (which claims that those in the end times too scared to stand up for Jesus will somehow be whisked to heaven while those willing to die for Jesus are “losers” who are “left behind.”) might not have any support in the Bible, but it has plenty of support among the deceptive leaders of the New Age movement.
“The people who leave the planet during the time of Earth changes do not fit in here any longer, and they are stopping the harmony of Earth. When the time comes that perhaps 20 million people leave the planet at one time there will be a tremendous shift in consciousness for those who are remaining.”
–Barbara Marciniak, Bringers of the Dawn
Another woman, a channeler of a space alien she calls “Ashtar,” claims aliens will use energy beams to bring about a Great Evacuation.
Those who nervously cling to the unbiblical pre-tribulation rapture deception will use New Agers’ testimonies as “proof” to validate their fantasies over the clear teachings of the Bible.
These New Age fables give aid and support to the unbiblical pre-tribulation rapture deception. In fact, the ONLY group boosting the yarn of the pre-tribulation rapture more than false, apostate teachers is the New Age.
Why would the New Age help to publicly promote the idea of a pre-tribulation rapture?
Call it a professional courtesy between two groups with similar goals.
But perhaps something darker looms?
Perhaps there will be a culling of the herd?
Perhaps the disappearance of “perhaps 20 million” might be explained away by a tale which has been told and retold for the past 50 years?
Of course, the Bible is clear when the gathering together of God’s people takes place.
“But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory. And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven.”
–Mark 13:24-27
In the parallel account in Matthew 24:31, Jesus adds: “And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet,”
So, Jesus is in the clouds (at His Second Coming, NOT His Third or Fourth): he sends His angels to gather together His elect with a great sound of a trumpet, the angels gather, then take His elect to meet Jesus, who’s waiting in the clouds.
Wonder what that’s all about?

TODAY’S “FEUDS”
Everyone LOVES to hear and see DRAMA, right?
And what is more dramatic than an apparent feud among the beautiful people, right?
Particularly if the “feud” is between celebrities, politicos or royal nabobs?
Satan’s Mouthpiece (the Corporate Media) has always had a problem: what to do when too many of the rich and celebrated have NOTHING “newsworthy” to do. When the media gets tired of reporting what the rich and celebrated are wearing, they turn to the tried-and-true method of of fake “feuds” to generate cheap, plastic “news.” One popular singer’s entire marketing campaign over the years seems to have been based on engaging in one “feud” after another. But, as the “victims” appear to be primarily the singer’s “fans,” it’s hard to get too worked up over the ruse.
Sports, politics and celebrity culture, European royalty–wherever the rich and celebrated congregate: these are the arenas where readers can most often find stories of “feuds.”
Oh–and pro wrestling…
One can depend on those who labor for the mystery of iniquity to act, in not only an EVIL manner, but also in a very repetitive one as well.
Case in point: when two followers of Satan are working together, one of the first things they do is establish that they 1-do not like each other; 2- they hate each other; or, 3- are fighting against one another.
Democrats and Republicans, Russia and the USA, members of the same family who toil together for evil ends, famous celebrities who are “feuding” with each other: it happens so often, one occasionally has to wonder,
“Does Satan have a university or school where he teaches his followers these tricks?”

DO NOT TEMPT GOD
“Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple, And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shalWl give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.”
–Matthew 4:1,5-7
Based on a fairly recent discussion, there appears to be some confusion concerning the Bible’s warning to “not tempt the LORD thy God.”
A question was asked, “How can someone tempt God? What can a man have that God doesn’t have? I don’t understand.”
It was then explained that “tempt God” means “put God to the test.”
DO NOT TEST OR TRY GOD.
The following example was then given.
One does not climb to the top of a tall building and say “I’m going to throw myself off of this building. God, save me.”
That is testing God–and it does not work out favorably for the person putting God to the test.
Putting God to the test ACTUALLY demonstrates a lack of faith on the part of the person testing God.
In effect, it is saying to God, “Show me your power.” Which is NEVER a good thing to say to God.
God is NOT a familiar spirit who demonstrates His power to the faithless because someone wants to see a parlor trick.
Do not tempt the LORD.
“Ye shall not tempt the LORD your God, as ye tempted him in Massah.”
–Deuteronomy 6:16

MEDIA NARRATIVES ALERT
“How can the reader know when the Corporate Media is lying to him (never mind the fact that the media is Satan’s Mouthpiece and Satan is the father of lies)? One easy way to tell is the use of “Why” and “How” in the headlines of an article. When the reader sees “Why?” or “How?” in the headline–occasionally “What” is used–that which follows will be a fairy tale, a narrative, a bedtime story spun by the media for the benefit of the media’s master. “Why” usually denotes an on-going narrative; “How” signifies a story line which explains past events. Not all narratives begin with “How” or “Why.” However, the most in-your-face, over-the-top ones usually do. ALL political “news” is narrative.

DONALD TRUMP: THE LIBERAL’S LIBERAL
Once upon a time, not long ago, Donald Trump donated much money to Hillary Clinton (who is Donald Trump’s cousin), a person he professed to admire and like (at least this is what he stated in published interviews).
Trump also reliably supported all the trendy liberal causes: abortion, immigration, legalizing drugs, gun control.
Not long ago, Trump was more liberal than Barack Obama.
THEN, it was time for Donald Trump to be selected as president–as a Republican.
Out the door went his old professions and in came a whole new worldview–at least that’s what he told the many who watch the Corporate Media.
But has Donald Trump really changed? Or is he merely mouthing words, as he once did while heading a TV series?
Anyone who watches the actions of President Donald Trump will have to admit he talks a good game.
The media is up in arms over what he says, right? Isn’t that a reliable way to judge whether Donald Trump is carrying out his promises?
It appears the Corporate Media is dead-set against Donald Trump, right? Isn’t that a reliable way to judge whether Donald Trump is a conservative?
Actually, anyone who keeps track of President Donald Trump notices a very large gap between what Trump says and the actions he takes while president.
The many ways in which Donald Trump was once a liberal’s liberal – Including donating $100,000 to the Clinton Foundation.
He loved Hillary Clinton; now he thinks she’s the worst. He was very much in favor of abortion rights before he opposed them. And he might be running as a Republican today, but he was once a registered Democrat who called for legalizing drugs, a massive one-time 14.25 percent tax on the wealthy and staying out of wars that didn’t present a “direct threat” to the U.S. In many ways, he’s been to the left of Clinton and even Bernie Sanders on some issues.
Donald Trump is not the first of his class to pull the old switcheroo; many others have done it.
Ronald Reagan did it.
That is not surprising: the political leaders of the USA come from a very, very small pool of rich and celebrated personages. This pool is so small, all in it are related to each other.
MORE: Ruling Blood of America: Bloodlines of the Rich and Celebrated

While not all are publicly rich when they enter politics, ALL are rich upon leaving it.
What is surprising: that so many are willing to entertain the thought “Perhaps Donald Trump really did change.”
Like so many others who have come before him, watch what Donald Trump DOES, not what he SAYS.

PARAPROSDOKIANS
Paraprosdokians – One of this writer’s favorite figures of speech.
A paraprosdokian is a figure of speech in which the latter part of a sentence or phrase is surprising or unexpected in a way that causes the reader or listener to re-frame or re-interpret the first part. It is frequently used for humorous or dramatic effect. For this reason, it is extremely popular among comedians and satirists.
A personal favorite: “I want to die peacefully in my sleep, like my grandfather, not screaming and yelling like the passengers in his car.”
Another: “If I agreed with you, we’d both be wrong.”
