If a typical dietitian gives you a recommendation, you should probably do the opposite. Listen to this corporate spokesperson aka government-approved dietitian, and then start researching the carnivore diet.

Donald Trump Guilty Verdict
Presidential politics is a joke and an idol for too many Christians. I have not paid any attention to Trump’s trial and I don’t care. It is much more fruitful to participate in local politics. I can talk to my city councilman or county commissioner, but I will likely never have a meeting with the president where I can explain my opinion on an issue.
However, what Texas governor, Greg Abbot, said about the verdict is interesting. He said, “This was a sham show trial. The Kangaroo Court will never stand on appeal.”
I have a couple questions about that.
1. If Abbot actually believed that, what action should he take?
2. If a New York court is a Kangaroo Court, is it so far-fetched that a Texas court might be a Kangaroo Court?
1. If there is a Kangaroo court in America, we need to do something serious about that. That is totally unconscionable. I believe that almost all American courts are Kangaroo Courts. That’s why I’m a secessionist and an anarchist. You will never reliably get justice from a system that rejects Christ as Lord.
2. There are plenty of liberal places in Texas. Does he think there is no court in Texas where a jury might reach the same verdict? I think it’s very likely that there are liberal courts and places in Texas that would have convicted Trump. The issue here is, now Abbot has things he can actually do about that. What is he doing?
Conversation With Border Patrol Checkpoint Guy
I had a conversation on Facebook with a guy who said he’s a federal agent. As the conversation went on, I started to think more and more that he’s actually a guy who works at the checkpoints. It started out with me posting this meme in the comments of a Facebook post. Here’s the conversation.
Fed:
if you think BP checkpoints infringe on your freedoms than you’re a moron plain amd simple. Everybody wants freedom until they have to do their small part to maintain it then they cry like you. Cry harder
Me:
How are checkpoints maintaining freedom?
Fed:
checkpoints take drugs off the streets and limit the flow of illegals traveling northbound into the interior. They have a good success rate with daily seizures and captures. You wanna live in a drug free society. You want your kids to not be kidnapped and trafficked for sex that kind of security isn’t fee. It requires you to spend about 3 seconds of your life answering a question. Hardly an infringement and btw the supreme court already ruled that nothing done at BP checkpoints is unconstitutional. Ask not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country. A tiny sacrifice that allows agents 1 more chance to find bad things. And btw it’s hundreds of pounds a week in narcotics
Me:
your comment is exactly what the meme is responding to. You beg to give up your God-given freedoms because you’re scared.
Fed:
what God given right do checkpoints take away? Scared lol. Look bud I’m a federal agent. Instead first hand what comes across the border and instead the statistics. If you think it’s family units lookikg for jobs and better lives you are foolishly naive. Military age males describe about 9 out 10 brush apprehensions. Hundreds of pounds of fentanyl and heroin, meth, etc trafficked in and seiezed. If you think drug seizures and pedophiles being arrested is a bad thing just say so. El Salvador amd Venezuela have no room in their prisons so they release ppl and send them north. Murderers, rapists, cartel members, all coming here to exploit American freedom while “men” like you say bizz words like scared to justify your argument.
Me:
You’re a federal agent? It’s hard to get someone to see the truth whose paycheck depends on him not seeing the truth. The Supreme Court has ruled that black people can be enslaved and babies can be murdered in their mothers’ wombs. I have zero respect for that bunch of weirdos in black dresses.
What rights do checkpoints take away? My right to travel without being forced to answer questions.
Drug seizures are a bad thing. We learned from prohibition that making alcohol illegal was a bad idea. There was all kinds of violence resulting from prohibition that we don’t see anymore. There are drawbacks to legal alcohol, but giving away freedoms for socialist, big-government programs is a bad idea.
If we put checkpoints all over the place and stopped people, we could catch a lot of bad guys. That would be unconstitutional. Why is something that would be unconstitutional in Nebraska, constitutional because it’s within 100 miles of the border?
On the border, just as with all big-government, socialist programs, there are unintended consequences. Immigrants are forced to sneak across the border. It’s hard to sneak through the desert with a family. If the border were open, there would be problems, but God won’t bless a nation that trusts in socialism and giving away their freedoms. We are to do the right thing and leave the consequences to God.

Fed:
if you think open borders is a good idea than there’s no point in continuing a discussion. You are clearly far beyond naive. Even with these relaxed border policies we are facing cities like El Paso are in a state of emergency. Homeless shelters are maxed out out. Illegal immigrants recieving NTA papers get more money than American Citizens on SNAP. I believe in God as well but this is why there is a separation between church and state because not everybody believes in God and the honor system doesn’t work. In countries like Venezuela and Guatemala child sdx trafficking and rape is prevalent and now that problem comes here. Also comparing drugs and alcohol is absurd. Beer and liquor can certainly be consumed I’m moderation without issue but fentanyl cannot. Heroin cannot. Methamphetamine cannot. I’d these checkpoints weren’t successful they would close. Deemed a waste of money but because we find so much stuff we continue to operate. So again you things taking drugs off the street is bad cool. You think locking up child abductors is bad cool. When an illegal migrant rapes a family member of yours don’t cry about it.
Me:
open borders was one of America’s founding principles. Your argument is with the founding fathers.
Like I said from the beginning, you’re touting how dangerous these people are and how we need to surrender our rights for safety. I don’t mean you’re personally scared but you’re fear-mongering.
You can separate Christianity and state. You can’t separate religion and state. The only question is which god will be the god of the system?
Why are checkpoints that would be unconstitutional in Nebraska be constitutional within 100 miles of the border?
Fed:
it’s not fear mongering if the threat is real and credible. DHS doesn’t just make up numbers for fun and I see the seizures first hand. The issue is that an uptick in sexual assault, assault, and theft has occurred in border towns and border states since we relaxed the standards at the border and canceled the remaining in Mexico policy. Fera mongering would only hold water if nothing was ac5ually happening and the argument was that it “could”. I’ve literally pulled small minor girls out of locked tool boxes in ppl trucks who were being trafficked into the US. Kidnapped to be sold. Seen it first hand.
Also who’s to say it would be illegal in Nebraska? Just the farther into the interior you go the quicker they spread out and the odds of catching them becomes slim. So we justify within 100 Miles. It’s common sense
End of Conversation.
Of course it would be a dream come true to go person-by-person and present all of my persuasive arguments to each evil bureaucrat and persuade each one to stop committing the evil they do every day. But as I mentioned in the conversation, they get good benefits and they probably earn more money than they could at any other job. His lifestyle is dependent on him not thinking he’s abusing people. He has a very real motivation to think crossing an imaginary line is a sin and that perpetuating a black market in drugs is righteous. I’m still shocked that hardly anyone cares what the founding fathers thought. The meme is spot on in his case and he’s just not smart enough to see it.
The Freedoms You’re Losing
I’ve been discussing border issues a while, but I guess I’ve changed my tactic a little so I’m getting different responses. I’ve been talking about how people are so willing to give up their freedoms in exchange for safety. The surprising part is that people don’t even realize the freedoms they’re surrendering. So here’s the list.
1. In order to hire someone you have to act as an agent for the federal government to verify that the employee is legal to work.
2. You can’t hire whoever you want. You can only hire someone who is a citizen or has a green card.
3. You can’t have over to your house whoever you want. A foreigner can’t just legally show up but has to be approved to be in the country and if they are approved can’t just stay around, but can only be here on certain terms.
4. You have to have a passport to re-enter the U.S. in many instances after you’ve left the country. Passports are a pain. Keeping track of passports for a family of 6 is no easy task.
5. The immigration checkpoints within 100 miles of the border mean you can’t drive without being harassed by the government. Why is a [Nazi] checkpoint constitutional near the border but unconstitutional in Nebraska?
I used to think that an evil minority in Washington D.C. managed to take away our freedoms. I’m realizing more and more that Americans beg for their freedoms to be taken away. Ben Franklin said those who would give up liberty in exchange for safety are worthy of neither.
Obvious Failure
If a random Christian gets challenged by an unbeliever about anything in the Bible whether online or in person, you can guess how it’s going to go. It’s not going well, and there may even be heresy involved, even when you know the random Christian isn’t a heretic. It’s very sad.
The recent invention of one guy standing up and preaching (Sunday morning church service) is a complete failure. Any pastor at this point who isn’t sickened by the obvious failure isn’t paying attention, or is blinded by his paycheck. Sunday morning church is a waste of time as far as the education/sermon is concerned. You’d be better off sleeping in. It’s time to try something different.
Good Post
I’ve been reading my own blog in the last couple days. I’ve posted soooooooooo many videos of cops abusing people who were doing nothing wrong. But, this is probably the best thing I’ve written.

What Attitude Should Americans Have?
I know people who don’t celebrate Christmas because they think Christmas trees and other Christmas traditions are pagan–same thing with Easter. I don’t know anyone who doesn’t celebrate Independence Day/Fourth of July. Of course, that is the date the Declaration of Independence was signed. That is, political leaders in the 13 colonies told the existing government that they were no longer going to submit to them. They were forming their own new government. They were no longer going to obey the King and his laws or pay their taxes to Britain. In fact, they ended up killing British government agents and soldiers.
The patriots wrote eloquently about resisting tyranny and the God-given rights of men. The king was abusive, but only a fraction as abusive as today’s U.S. government. He charged a very small, yet still unjust tax, a fraction of what we pay today, and the colonists revolted. The way the vast majority of Americans twist Romans 13 into teaching nearly blind obedience to government would indicate that the founding fathers were in grave sin. Yet I know of zero conservative Christian Americans who aren’t proud Americans who celebrate Independence Day with vim and vigor.
When I point out that inland immigration checkpoints are wicked, and police are an unamerican, socialist institution, public schools are funded by the most evil form of taxation–property taxes, and so forth, conservatives get mad at me and say I’m the unamerican one and I should leave the country. But who is really unamerican? What is the definition of what America is and what it ought to be? Is it defined by the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Bible? Or is it defined by proudly pledging allegiance to whatever it is now? If what defines a good American is how proud you are of what America currently is and saying the pledge of allegiance, then I guess they’re right. I’m unamerican. I’m not pledging my allegiance to a country that has betrayed its founding values. I’m not pledging allegiance to a country that has allowed the murder of 60 million babies and takes 50% or more of our income through all forms of taxation or that stops people as they travel through the southern U.S. to ask them what their citizenship is. By that definition I’m definitely unamerican and so are the founding fathers. However, I think the Bible, the Declaration and to a lesser extent, the Constitution define what a true American is and I’m, unfortunately one of the few true Americans left.
The Supreme Court Is a Joke
I don’t believe anything the government says. They may be right on some things or tell the truth sometimes, so you have to verify everything they say. Reagan said we would trust the Soviets, but verify. I say we don’t trust the U.S. government but verify.
We ought to be able to read the Constitution and have a good understanding of what the laws should be. It’s not written for dummies, but generally, someone with some effort should be able to generally apply it and come to an understanding of what their rights are. One principle is that the federal government is limited to powers that are specifically enumerated in the Constitution. Of course, the government and liberals hate that. It turns out conservatives hate it as well.
One way they’ve gotten around that, rather than amending the Constitution is to warp and bend the foreign commerce clause. That clause is Article 1, Section 8, Clause 3 and gives Congress the right “To regulate commerce with foreign nations, and among the several states, and with the Indian tribes…” That seems quite clear.
Do you see anywhere where that clause gives Congress the ability to deal with individuals? If a foreigner were to arrive at a port or cross the border and look for a job, what does that have to do with a foreign nation, much less commerce? You’d have to really disrespect the Constitution to say that applies to individuals crossing a border. In conservative parlance, that sounds like a libtard interpretation of the Constitution. Conservatives would never put up with such foolishness when it comes to the 2nd Amendment.
But, that is the exact basis that the Supreme Court cites to give Congress power to regulate immigration. In Fong Yue Ting v. The United States (1893), the Supreme Court ruled that Chinese immigrants can be deported because of that clause that says nothing about individuals or immigration.
Samuel Nelson, Supreme Court Justice from 1845-1872 stated: “No direct authority over aliens has been delegated to Congress by the Constitution.”
In reality, the Supreme Court has twisted and judged incorrectly time and again. They’ve ruled that babies can be murdered in the womb; black people aren’t fully human and on and on. I use their decisions when they suit me and reject them when they are clearly wrong. They aren’t to be trusted. They’re not an authority on anything without threats of violence. They’re nothing more than pedophiles in weird black dresses.
Crazy, Confused Guy
My original comment was that the founding fathers gave us open borders. This guy responded that apparently the British attacking in the 1770s caused them to not have open borders? Then I tried to give him a few supporting facts and he just goes off the deep end. Slavery being made illegal is an immigration limitation? It would just mean that anyone brought to this country as a slave is no longer enslaved.
I’ve now posted these facts hundreds of times over many years and this is as good as any other argument against them as I’ve found.
Border Problems Have Biblical Solutions
It should come as no surprise that the border crisis could be solved tomorrow by applying biblical principles. Freedom and justice are absolutes. Anything other than biblical solutions will cause injustice and loss of liberty.
Are men free to make up whatever laws they want? No, because any deviation from God’s law causes someone to suffer injustice or some loss of freedom.
It turns out that the founding fathers gave us a system that was much closer to biblical ideals than what we have now. This consisted of:
1. Open borders and freedom to travel.
2. Freedom to work for whoever cared to hire you.
3. No government handouts to anyone–only private charity.
4. Limited political franchise/citizenship/voting rights.
These are not only biblical principles, but America’s founding principles. Any objections to open borders from Republicans/”conservatives”/Socialist Party R are answered in these 4 principles. This is the true conservative, free-market, anti-socialist position.
When we advocate for anything other than these principles we advocate for government of the beast (Revelation 13:17) and abuse of strangers. Strangers are a protected class in Scripture along with orphans and widows. You will face God on judgment day and give an account for how you treated them (Matthew 25:31-46) and how you advocate they be treated by the government.
So what should we do? We are to teach the nations to obey all that Christ has commanded (Matthew 28:19-20).
