President Trump. Ringing Class to the White House
Langford musta bumped his big ass head crawling out of his spacecraft after it crash landed in that Oklahoman toxic waste dump. What is going on in OK??
This, dear brother??
We can only hope…and not just Lankford 🙏🏻
Beautiful, Betsy.
And thank you, Betsy, so much, for posting this beautiful reminder.
I love that picture….
Me too!
Beautiful pic – going after the one that’s lost, filthy and lost. The Savior has run through mud and filth for us.
Just so true. So be it. AMEN.
Thank you Betsy;=)
To you, nichan, Aggie, Keynote, Dave, and Senda…
This one of all I have ever kept is the one which reaches deep on my heart and remains a great comfort to me…
Not one of us is ever so lost that the Good Shepherd will give up looking for us 🙏🏻💕
Thanks Betsy for this image. I need to find one to hang in my home like the one Arthur Brown has hanging in his bedroom.
Prayers and blessings for the weekend for you and yours.
I hope you can manage a print, dear Pat. I think a peace would descend upon your home 💕
(and on yours, dear friend…)
It’s on the wall in our bedroom. The caption reads:”he left the 99 to rescue me”.
That is a beautiful picture to hang and I love the caption. It is so true. Have a most blessed weekend.
Oh my, Arthur…
It must be a favourite. It would be for me.
But for the grace of God, there go I.
Thank you Jesus.
Yes. Something I always heard from my mother when I was little.
And with heartfelt gratitude, Amen 🙏🏻
Typical RNC support makes him difficult to unseat.
Thanks Mitch! /s
Lankford is a whichever way the wind is blowing senator – determined by our flag.

We toxic Okies want him gone yesterday!
I bet, dear ERROR, Tom Coburn is very much missed…
Though I must admit it doesn’t seem to matter much anymore who holds power in Congress when there is only one team playing.
You bet he is, Betsy!
Coburn was MAGA ahead of its time.
Mullin just won’t go there and Lankford is too far gone.
Key members of that “one team”.
We have half that problem here, my friend.
Praying for all we are worth that Cornyn is replaced by Paxton. Of course his wealthy donors, all Bush and Cheney Pacs are shoveling in the dosh…and the campaign of slander and personal abuse has started. Before the primary happens, I am praying that every conservative Texan will understand why we have to rid ourselves of him once and for all.
He has never had a serious challenger. He claims he is President Trump’s “Go To” man in the Senate 😂
He was past his sell by date from the moment he was elected.
Wish us luck!
We Texans will work hard to be gone with him. Rat basturk!!
He was all for DOGE long before it was promoted but had pathetically little support from fellow Republicans.
I remember his list and always looked forward to it.
And we all know the reason why there was no support for what should have been tackled.
$ $ $ $ $ $!!
He was a principled man.
I’m suprised Lankford wasn’t struck by lightning.
Did Jamie Ratskin attend? lol
No, red diaper babies were not allowed.
The dinner was for republican House members.
House Grifters and Senate Grifters.
Yes…..the rat establishment wing of the club! The pretenders, the backstabbers, the frauds! Even the ones I thought were okay and thought maybe they will do something…….names I would not or did not put into this category…..are in it now!
There has been no accountability for a damn thing….talks, hearings, congressional testimony, great video clips and click bait, talking points for interviews and the next election cycle along with needed donations..all to keep the fricking system running like it has….status quo…..they are just hoping they can get through the Trump years and keep the club intact. Their job….more so than representing us….is to protect the system at all cost!
Bob Mendez……more than once took a dive for the system…he just did it again. Do you really think he is the only corrupt politician…..and yet….he could have taken down a whole lot of people with him…..but he didn’t!
Could’ve taken down Congress…but he didn’t! He protected……THE SYSTEM and the ESTABLISHMENT!
Langford delivering prayers shows he is a hypocrite
There were issues around a summer camp, I believe?
He is easily dislikable!
How the hell did he get in?
Are they this naive in Ok?
Or…..was he installed.
What do you know of Jeremiah 29′ as in Psalm 45?
Apparently you don’t think Lankford is sincere and not allowed to pray in Jesus’ Name? What rules and regulations govern hypocrites?
What crime is it thank God in an assembly for their every day work for this nation as one team, for graces and wisdom to do what is right; for protection from evil?
The Holy Spirit unites us to Jesus Christ. The work is long and our love is short.
Remarkable post. Should remind us all that it is Jesus Christ that works through the common sinner to achieve great objectives for his glory.
Thank you, nichan.
All Praise and Glory to The Trinity God!
The only reason Jesus came identifying His God self as Son of God, is through His sacrifice obtained for us; so we share and are adopted into that Sonship. It is a divine gift we accept or refuse. Our cooperation in our efforts enable God to do His work in us after His will, not ours. A journey throughout all of life.
Throughout the gospel Jesus, though God in many instances throughout His whole life demonstrated His fully human nature, born to a human mother; experienced the natural processes of human development, including growth in wisdom and stature – Luke 2.
While carrying out works that only God can do, in many instances demonstrated how He is human like us. Hunger Matthew 21, Thirst John 19, Fatigue John 4, and deep emotional states of sorrow and grief – death of His friend, Lazarus. His suffering and Death on The Cross (is) a final and definitive human experience.
Jesus is more human than some of our human species.
It is a glorious day when Jesus Christ is prominently presented as the defining factor in all human interaction. Whether or not he is credited by anybody or everybody, his was, is, and always will be, the final word.
I appreciate President Trump introducing the nation to prayer as a necessary function of daily routine. Don’t know Lankford, but I prayed with him, trusting that the Lord will accept our collective humility and sincerity.
It is indeed …. AMEN! God bless you and yours abundantly with ALL that is good, as only God the Father Will can and does. What can go wrong despite the travails of this short earthly life? Thanks Be to God!
For, every day now is .. “This is the Day the Lord has made” Psalm 118:24
“Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice” Philippians 4:4
The word hypocrisy means saying things that you don’t believe or things that are contrary to your actions. The fact that you beleive what he’s saying has no bearing on wether or not it’s hypocritical. Lankford is an evil scumbag and you know it. Attempting to chastise someone for pointing that out, and using scripture to do it, means that you should spend some time in introspection.
I presented questions for Sanjac to ask of himself.
Are you answering those questions as related to you? Who is the chastising one – Demon Slick?
I do not claim to know Lankford is evil. Actions and the person are 2 distinctively different areas. One’s actions may be (Paul, previously Saul) but (the person) was able himself to admit to it only because he was receptive to what God’s Will for him is through The Holy Spirit’s work. Judge him evil? Only God knows the human heart, no human can nor should we attempt. Actions may speak louder contrary to words. The point here is – none of us should claim to know how an ‘evil’ one, a hypocritical one, (according to our limited human understanding/popular culture) by the Grace of God will in God’s own good time is damned to a gift divine – of conversion/of self-conviction (conscience, atonement and confession) for good works. Want to spend some time on introspection on this?
Have a blessed weekend.
I am beyond reproach from such as you.
Obviously .. that phrase has moral and ethical implications.
When someone is considered blameless or faultless, and no criticism can be made against them by others, he/she is considered ‘beyond reproach’.
When it is his/her (assertion) that his/her speech, actions and character are so above criticism that even someone of a lower reputable standing cannot find fault with them – because, of his/her ethical, moral superiority, whose integrity is unquestionable even when no criticism is launched from someone seen as less credible or principled.
(Your quote : “I am beyond reproach from such as you,”)
Quoting you ..
“Attempting to chastise someone” … “and using scripture .. “you should spend some time in introspection” in reply to my questions to you.
You assert I was chastising.
I did not write the Scripture passages
you deem – that means I require time in “introspection”
When I asked the same question of you – none of it is of reproach, nor that you should/must.
Peace be with you.
I have to keep telling myself to remember the bigger mission for President Trump.
Most of the congress creatures in attendance I’m sure could care less about their constituents.
We really need to change the name of congress to “The Grift”; i.e., “Grifter Lankford was in attendance at tonight’s dinner.”
I’ve been calling them grifters for years.
Democrats – grifters
Republicans:
All 535 are corrupt. There is not one single MAGA among them.
Corrupt traitors all.
You have to use the team you have, not the team you wish you had. I wish Paul and Massie and McConnell and…etc. were not the guys PDJT47 has to rely on, but he has no choice.
Well….its actually Thune now…..but whats in a name change when the tactics remain the same and you trained by the one you replaced!
I know it’s Thune, and you’re correct that he’s no better than McConnell, but I cannot recall Thune being so publicly anti-PDJT47 as McConnell was/is.
Same stuff, different uniparty puppet.
pragmatic, realistic, and common sense comment.👍🏻
that’s how it is right now to get the wins we CAN get.
President Trump relaxed and cheerful.
Must be a relief for
D. C.ers to be able to stroll and attend activities at night nowadays.
Thank you, President Trump!
If they really want to help MAGA, as it were, they would stop dawdling and start voting on these EOs that Trump has signed so that they get into law.
how many can Rose Garden seat or stand?
Its just been “Trump style” recently renovated. So we may have to wait for the WH to expand on how much area was added, if any and what that means for seating or standing. One can wonder if Massie was in attendance?!
The venue formerly known as the is now called the Moda Center, and its seating capacity varies depending on the event configuration. For basketball games, the capacity is 19,393 seats. The arena can accommodate up to 20,500 spectators when configured for a center stage performance. For an end-stage setup, the capacity is approximately 15,000 guests, and for the intimate Theater of the Clouds configuration, it seats around 6,500 people.
The venue has also hosted events with standing room, though specific standing capacities are not detailed in the provided information.
Did AI cough up stats on the Rose Bowl, and not the Rose Garden?
Why ask me. AI may well educate all of us who are challenging Wikipaedia or clinging to our own estimation;-)
Have fun either way you will have it.
What a good man! What a great president!!
Why, oh why, does he continue to laud Mike Johnson??? He and Thune have done nothing but stall Trump’s agenda.
Its a Big Uniparty Club and we aint in it.
Nobody in Congress is supporting MAGA policies. Elections are Rigged.
Special request: Please stop pretending we still have a two party system and separation of powers. Please.
Dinner with a den of snakes.
