Praying with Brother Stillwater for 10/20/26

Thanks for the direct Val1…. I get distracted and forget to go there….
God bless everyone today and always, and God bless America!
Thank you ed.
If 2024 had gone the other way, this would be in our cities also.
They are showing us what their plan was with the open borders during the supposed Biden era.
Am remembering the stories, I forget percisely when, the stories of the all the “prayer rugs” found on the American side of the southern border.
Now Texas puts them in airports.
That’s nice. Now I have a place to wipe my feet.
I am realizing more and more every day that I need an emotional support pig.
And my ass.
don’t want America to burn like France vote for good and Godly people!!!!
When you can’t find them on your ballot, vote “R” to save our MAGA President.
The wife and I will be voting a straight Republican ticket…….. again!
The French are lucky the idiots outed themselves too soon, so now politicians will run against the muzzies for a couple decades.
Hopefully, plenty of Americans are paying attention and see the horde for what it is.
Yeah according to macron it was trump, and I agree.
Democrats play dirty Trump just calls their hand.
Europe keeps ‘Reformation’ alive and never ever tries ‘Restoration’!
Because they don’t have a true Constitution to fall back on; monarchy is a stalemate to true restoration of humanity/morals. Monarchy relies on bloodlines, a real constitution relies on The People.
God Help US
Restoration of true values and morals; it gets to the heart of all that ails a nation. Without it chaos ensues and enslavement is the ultimate end.
We have The Ten Commandments AND the US Constitution; Restoration is the answer: along with getting ‘Big government’ back to size, it will get it back to it’s job…..
The “socialists” fail to realize that the poor, oppressed Muslims are using them to get into power. Then it will be a Monty Python skit. “Nobody expects the Islam Inquisition”.
It leads to. . .
Misery, suffering, lawlessness, chaos, violence, destruction, immorality, deception, lies, racism, HATE and DEATH, the calling cards of the democRAT party and all their like-minded ilk.
It’s in their DNA, and they know of nothing else.
Amen
Many are saying “Trump coulda or shoulda” or “If Trump woulda” comments. What spare energy or priorities did you see him wasting at any point in this presidential term? Who do you want as president instead of Donald Trump? Are you supporting the MAGA/constitutional platform or tearing it down? Or weakening it by criticizing and undermining the president?
Every conservative person giving negative comments toward Donald Trump needs to do a quick and thorough self assessment of their own character, their own work ethic, their own commitment to this country and to this president. Ask yourself, what projects or activities am I doing myself that are bringing this country in line with the principles of our Creator and the constitution of this republic?
Let us quit worrying about our reputation and be like Marco Rubio — support the man and lay down your life daily alongside him — first for the Lord, then for this great Nation that God has blessed us with through the sacrifice of others.
None of the negative armchair quarterbacks can name one person who could have accomplished what Donald Trump has — at any level. That is not emotion driven speculation — that is reasoned tabulation and reviewing data constantly
Our government is a constitutional republic. We the People have the power. We are not using it. I daresay none of us are using our power and resources for the sake of this country like Donald Trump is.
The signers of the Declaration pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor for this country. Which one of us here wants to step forward and show a greater commitment to this country by those measures — than Donald J Trump?
I still say our president fights harder and more consistently and tirelessly against 10 times more resistance than any other president. — to a miraculous degree.
If each of us in the 81+ million conservative population of this nation will give one tenth of the effort they spend criticizing him, and put that effort toward supporting MAGA and President Trump — with a willingness to respond to the pushback, then we will have unstoppable growth, morale, and productivity in this nation.
🎯
Thank for your message-We need a reality check occasionally to keep us on track. Just ask where would our country be today without President Trump.
What other political figure that calls themselves Republican would have even considered doing what President Trump has accomplished. I expect they would have been overwhelmed by the Establishment UniParty to conform.
With President Trump we still have a chance to save our Constitutional Republic.
He was the First President that wasn’t a Politician. His life was in the real world, but he followed politics from a citizens view.
Ross Perot was probably his guide. IMHO
God Help US
Politicians have a sell by date AND We get to take them out with elections. The POTUS is not a position that should see someone climb the ladder to get there; he should be POTUS material the day he announces his plans to run. IMHO
Elon comes to mind, don’t go mad, he can’t, but someone like him: a born daydreamer, worker, a sage, organizer, and has stick -to-it- ness. He’s up for a challenge!
Someone Like Trump, Elon, and Eisenhower……….anybody come to mind. Asking for a friend.
Thanks Doc – stay on message 😉
AMEN
Amen!
Amen
Amen. Go God beat the devil.
He already has and always will.
God is the Holy Trinity.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit; both now and ever and unto the ages of ages. Amen.
+ + +
Prayer of Saint Ioannikios the Great of Bithynia (+ 846)
My hope is the Father, my refuge the Son, my protection the Holy Spirit. O Holy Trinity, glory to Thee.
Good Morning America, how are ya?
46 and clear in Kankakee.
49 and clear down on this end.
Mid to upper 70s and sunny tomorrow. Will be a beautiful day.
We are starting at 42 but will hit 64 today. Sunny and bright, a perfect fall day in Wisconsin. The colors are great right now, but the leaves are falling fast.
Wisconsin’s Lake Superior Scenic Byway provides an exquisite canvas of vibrant fall foliage.
While in the Northwoods, the leaves were slowly starting to change…this picture is gorgeous!
45 F, 99% humidity, 0 wind and 15% chance of rain. Dense fog advisory. Sunrise time: 7:13:48 am.
‘Falling back’ only 12 days away. Let the debate rage on!
Clocks will be set back to standard time on November 1, 2026, at 2:00 a.m. local time. At that moment, the time will fall back to 1:00 a.m.
I am not looking forward to this…
Me either …. wish they would just leave it alone.
We northerly folks never do…
This old Southern boy wishes they would leave it alone, too. After Nov. 1, I do not want to be bothered with this nonsense ever again.
‘Daylight savings time’ …….Climate Change……..the coming of the NWO/communism……..2030 deadline…..Gas will end the ozone ……..We have to get to Mars before the earth is gone, relocate to Mars!!
ALL hoaxes.
You can’t make daylight any longer than God gave it; summer, winter, and fall have the exact, exact! minutes that God gifted to us, never changing by a clock.. Changing the time did nothing about ‘changing’ the light minutes. Nor the dark minutes. Did ‘saving’ daylight lessen the dark??
Our internal clocks have become clock watchers; We watch the clock around the clock.
The time zones are a good idea, but changing the clocks to save daylight is fantasy. IMHO
Standard Time sounds better to me. It’s real, not made up/manmade.
God Help US
God gave us everything we need to survive and Live on His Earth, AND every second of light and darkness we need to see his universe.
All clock time is made up/manmade.
And it’s been universally used since ‘time’ began. sarc.
Time has zones, again calculated by man; it’s all about the movement of the earth in the universe. Witnessed and calculated by man. And man set ‘times’ seconds, minutes, etc, and like music it had a beat, the rhythm of the earth.
Man made a clock, but they didn’t ‘make’ anything up, they calculated time from facts. Leap years make up small calculation errs or more likely just changing from one calendar to another?? Both calendars calculated by man.
Good morning dear Aggie
50 degrees and pitch dark out.
Black strong coffee in hand ..wonderful morning.
43 clear on our way to 70? anyway it is beautiful here in Fraudopolis,Mn. As fall colors are in full display. As a painter I do love to be outside with a brush painting the fall colors. If the politics were more mainstream here and the taxes under control it is a beautiful state to live in except for the cold. May Ilhan find that NO ONE is above the law and be swiftly deported.
Fall is so refreshing.
Yes wish I had my “painting room” back with all the papers on the floor …
Re Omar do we know where she is?
I think I saw Omar in WalMart yesterday. Well, at least it looked like her. It was a rare sighting around here since Mooslimes usually come out at night, kinda like roaches and rats!
https://revolver.news/2026/10/report-thousands-of-new-docs-point-to-a-diabolical-cia-color-revolution-after-midterms/
FTA “If you thought the political games around the midterms couldn’t get any more disturbing, buckle up, we’ve got a doozy for you. There’s a new bombshell report from DataRepublican, the researcher who made big waves during the DOGE investigations. And if what she’s uncovering turns out to be true, we’re looking at something a helluva lot scarier than the usual political dirty tricks from our communist enemies on the left. DataRepublican says she’s got her hands on thousands of transcripts and hundreds of recordings that point to an elaborate, coordinated effort to provoke a constitutional crisis right after the 2026 midterms. Basically, this would be a CIA-style color revolution on our own soil, in real time.
And according to DR’s reporting, that new battle would carry over into the 2028 presidential election. DataRepublican says she’s only starting to work through her archive, so we’ll be watching to see what happens.”
Remember the communist Democrats motto is the ends justify the means! I’m President Trump already knows all this! God help us!!!
62 of 64 Colorado sheriffs will stand down. If you need to defend your loved ones, they’ll shoot/arrest YOU. It seems they’re all pre-positioned or attend the same agency conference calls, or something like that.
Call me crazy, but in the meantime do a little research in your state.
Sheriffs are elected. The lefties in their counties will try to make sure a conservative sheriff will not be re-elected.
Joint Terrorism Task Forces are pretty common. Such arrangements tend to create expectations of organization and cooperation.
Boulder city council (not county) voted to sign onto a MOU with the FBI, etc. to form their JTTF even before having the MOU in final draft form.
Yup, lefty counties tend to have lefty sheriffs, and lefty DA’s and lefty judges which is why they are schiff-hole counties.
To think these demons are going into their goodnight without a fight are dreaming. Like France, Italy or the mostly peaceful riots in 2020 ostensibly kicked off by the George “the junky” Floyd arrest and subsequent death. See rock, throw rock.
The Power!
In the mind of the glo-bull-ist they had us toe tagged and bagged and off to the graveyard, then came our Great American President Donald J Trump and MAGA and gave us a reprieve, the really big question, now what?
I do not believe this man of opulence would destroy his name and brand he’s spent 50 + years building just to lose. Just think the Romanov’s and the Bolsheviks after their Glorious Revolution. I say he better, Fight! Fight! Fight!
MAGA! …with God the only way.
His name is his Brand. He was always squeaky clean and I believe that is because he had his eye on the Presidential position long ago…there were a lot of lefties complaining about his business bankruptcies…but they were all within the laws…along with the tax applications….he had access to every law that every one of us has/had access to.
Go MAGA.
No doubt. Love him or hate him, he’s always been America first. He played it coy on Oprah in 1988, she asked him glowingly about running for president, to paraphrase a, “Maybe, if no one steps forward.
MAGA!
Being the brilliant businessman that Trump is, I think he saw a critical need not being met and decided he had no other choice than to run for President to try to reverse the disastrous path that we were going down. The spineless, do-nothing RINOs in Congress couldn’t be trusted or bothered to stand up against their colleagues across the aisle. That go-along-to-get-along bunch of worthless idiots are not much better than the far-left, America-hating Communists that call themselves Democrats. God Bless President Donald J. Trump and God Bless America! 🇺🇸
Don’t forget that “reach across the aisle” bullshit!
The R’s and the D’s are the two cheeks of the same ass!
I’ve been reading DataRepublican’s discovery for two days….. at first I was alarmed…then I realize this is no surprise…
Keep praying, and as President Trump says…we are to never ever ever ever ever give up…
Exactly. It’s out there to get views, but we have to assume this is the plan for the authoritarians – it’s just taking the red/green label for now.
https://rumble.com/v7h2wyk-diversity-is-increasingly-becoming-the-sword-that-civilized-countries-will-.html
Diversity is a fool’s errand! Someone tell Bill Clinton!
Alberta voted to Remain in Canada with overwhelming amount, between 75-80% with over 25% counted.
When they complain next time about Ottawa, don’t feel sorry for them.
This is only going to make Carney dig in his heels even more against the US.
Canadians are doomed.
Almost understandable. But the other 9 measures are much more interesting. They did make the right choice on other questions.
People will go to amazing lengths to avoid admitting they have been made fools.
A 20 to 25 per cent vote to separate Alberta from Canada is actually a stunning result.
Study the period before the American Revolution and you will find there was no majority in the colonies supporting a revolution and separation of the American colonies from England. It took more pain before reality set in.
Canada is on an unmistakable path to self-destruction. It will not take very long for a grim reality to take hold and for the people in Canada to realize there are not enough lifeboats and life jackets to save them from the sinking they face ahead.
Just now, the economic disaster taking place in France (more than a trillion-Euros deficit) could take down the entire European Union. Canada cannot throw in with the EU for its salvation as Carney fantasizes.
Sooner or later, the destruction of nations by socialism brings the misery and pain to everyone’s doorstep.
Socialism has not and CANNOT succeed to make everyone secure and happy. Socialism preaches a fairy tale that always blows up in the faces of its devout believers.
The politicians preaching this false religion are willing to start a World War to avoid admitting economic failure. You can see this in the leadership throughout Western Europe.
Consider the minority who support Alberta’s separation are ITS MOST PRODUCTIVE AND WISE CITIZENS !
To your point in the words of Th Jefferson:
“Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. “
“that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. “
And that is why PDJT has met so much resistance and hate from both sides of the aisle.
…same sort of ideas that Machiavelli wrote about…
Restoration never reformation is my motto. Especially if you have something so perfect as a perfect union that has gone astray.
Restore it to it’s former Glory; God and Country.
From the way back machine, courtesy of AI:
Winston Churchill famously stated that socialism is “the philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.”
And conversely:
is often cited alongside his earlier remark from the House of Commons on October 22, 1945, that “the inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings.”
‘the inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings:’ money being the ‘blessing’ is a little unGodly by becoming the root of all evil. IMHO
God gives Blessings and expects nothing in return.
Businesses give employment and pay for it.
Capitalism is not a religion and has no obligation to ‘bless’………
From my fishing trips to Canada (all in Ontario) most Canadians seem like beaten’ cowering dogs to me. Yet they remain proud of their country and patriotic. I guess as a patriotic American I understand the patriotism, but as an American I don’t understand the being a beaten’ dog. Maybe it’s just to late for Canada, they have given up their guns and so many rights?
As they wish.
Suffering the eventual shock and dismay resulting from subservience to an abusive government will exact a very painful toll.
Yes, but weren’t there 4 million votes from 3 million voters??
don’t want America to burn like France vote for good and Godly people!!!!
It seems October is a not the month to visit Paris France for a vacation:
D.I.E. : the outcome is showing it’s evil head. They said it was going to make a better ‘World.’ But, not a better neighborhood.
Be careful what ya wish for. AND be especially careful of what the government wishes for You.
God Help US
I can think of eleven other months not to visit Paris, France! Brochures always lie and don’t honestly or accurately describe the real experience.
Andy Ngo’s new book, “The Zizians: Inside a Trans Death Cult” is available now. He and Ann Coulter discuss it in this video.
Bizarre. Evil. Dangerous.
It’s not nice to mess with natural hormones. Add to that mind control and watch out.
Manmade ‘sexuality’ is a major disaster waiting to happen.
The Great American Experiment produced the greatest nation in history but history should teach us that great nations, like great ships under full sail, either move forward with the wind or become becalmed like the ship in The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, causing its crew to sink into helplessness and despair.
Too many Americans conflate intelligence with wisdom and believe advancing technology and increased wealth lays the foundation for America’s continuing prosperity.
But developing technology over developing character is fools gold, a glittering mirage in the pursuit of happiness that never materializes!
Remember that Thomas Jefferson included the pursuit of happiness in The Declaration of Independence and not the pursuit of wealth for a reason!
American families don’t need more vacation homes or Alexas in their living rooms turning on their TVs and writing their letters to be happier…they need more children!
Children who need love, infinite patience, guidance and personal attention from them,not from some AI assistant promising to do their homework!
And in the process of infusing those qualities of character in our children, we infuse them in ourselves as well!
And that will keep America great!
America was an agricultural backwater that popped out children just so a few would survive.
But technology was being developed and America made sure it was part of developing and using technology.
Through technology, America became great. Greatest economy and eventually the greatest country.
And now those children survive through technology.
Anyone attacking technology is trying to undermine and eventually make America miserable.
The left does that alot. Attack energy which drives technology and makes life better.
The left also likes to attack God. Same intended result. And laws. Same result. And destroy education. Same result. It goes on. Family, etc all attacked
There should be room for God, and technology and law enforcement and family and …
It is fine to prioritize God and family, but we shouldn’t put God in conflict with the rest.
It is all part of MAGA.
America eliminated class, gave everyone equal opportunity, so people who worked hard and innovated could move up in the world in status and financially wherever they started. That is what made America great. That is what the left hates and wants to take away with ‘equity’.
They want two classes the Masters and the slaves.
Equal opportunity, not soul crushing equity.
Yes, thanks!
I wonder some times about equal opportunity. My parents were mixed social status. Dad’s parents were Detroit factory auto workers. Mom’s dad was a Vice President in Michigan Bell. He helped dad with college and to get a job with Ohio Bell. I always fell between. It seemed like some opportunities were reserved for others of better standing.
But despite a bunch of self selecting elites, I could still make my own way.
Our country has always toyed with class, but never set it in stone. As you say, allowing people to rise and fall in status.
Any privileged anyone has is about wealth, not race or class. It is obvious that people that worked hard, innovated and succeeded want to give their children the best education and opportunities they can. It doesn’t matter your race. But in America people can even transcend that and become wealthy themselves. While no the best of examples, pro athletes and artists from singers to actors prove that over and over. But it happens in business and industry too. Steve Jobs is a great example.
Side note on technology…and related ‘stuff’….I am always amazed at the hardships the early Americans suffered and how they lived…and loved….while contemplating the buildings of Philadephia…
The construction of Independence Hall started in 1732 and was completed in 1753…
https://www.nps.gov/media/photo/gallery.htm?id=B6F0257A-155D-451F-67E68FF4C2857CBC
France had that attitude at one time too. No more:
Construction of the Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris began in 1163 and was largely completed by 1345.
The historic and beautiful Limoges Town Hall (Hôtel de Ville de Limoges) that just burned down: Construction began in 1879, and it officially opened on 14 July 1883.
Thanks for the link Aggie… oh my goodness, I perused the pictures and now have a great
urge to see Independence Hall for myself.
Just imagine them walking through it, sitting, discussing, arguing…founding our Beautiful America!
It’s fantastic. Ben Franklin’s tomb is not far away. Be sure to see that.
We forget what an earnest, hardworking and grateful for the Lord’s provisions society looks like.
The wife and I visited Philadelphia four years ago. I was taken back in time as we walked through Independence Hall. Colonial Williamsburg, VA is another awesome experience, as well as Jefferson’s Monticello, Washington DC, I could go on and on; so many historical sites that have been preserved and/or restored for posterity. I have no desire to travel outside of the United States. Been there, done that. There is so much to see and experience right here in our backyard, from coast to coast. God Bless our amazing and awesome home!
Agreed WD, plenty to sight see and enjoy in the USA.
For sure Europe would not be on my to do list if I ever leave stateside again!
Have a blessed day! MAGA!
You, too Monti.
Technology played a part, but entrepreneurialism was equally key, as was the financial system that let it flourish.
Amen.
EU ‘on brink of total financial collapse’ as France faces huge bailout – ‘£1.7tn at risk’
EXCLUSIVE: Bob Lyddon estimated that a bailout could require £1.7 trillion, warning that the consequences could prove catastrophic for the bloc’s finances.
France could require a huge bailout that threatens to overwhelm the EU’s finances and leave member states liable for trillions of euros in debt, an expert has warned. Financial commentator Bob Lyddon has warned that France’s worsening political and social instability could trigger a crisis in its bond market, potentially forcing Brussels to intervene to prevent a wider financial meltdown.
https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/2258630/eu-on-brink-collapse-france
Mr Lyddon – who outlined his points in an op ed published this week – argued that the European Central Bank’s Transmission Protection Mechanism, designed to address disorderly market pressures on eurozone government bonds, would not provide a solution.
He said: “France, for several reasons, is ineligible to benefit from the Transmission Protection Mechanism, and, given that a bailout package for France would need to be €2 trillion, the other bailout mechanisms with their own legal personality – the European Financial Stability Facility, and the European Stability Mechanism – are not set up to support an operation of that magnitude.”
Instead, he believes the EU itself would have to step in, potentially using an existing financial assistance mechanism and expanding its capacity to borrow.
And guess who will pull out the national checkbook of America?/sarc
Well, all I can say, is this:
“Let them eat cake”….they were warned.

Communists are pushing for protests across Europe as posters appear in the UK call for Gen Zers to assemble in various places across the UK and other countries.
https://www.gbnews.com/news/france-riots-britain-mass-protests-activists-exploit-tensions-europe
As France’s fiery student protests merged with a nationwide revolt on Saturday, a communist leader and academic, Vijay Prashad, celebrated the unrest with a message linking protests across three continents.
“Paris-New Delhi-Buenos Aires,” Prashad posted on X, borrowing a line from the British punk band The Clash: “Let fury have the hour, anger can be power.”
Prashad was important not only for what he said, but for who he is: executive director of Tricontinental Ltd., a nonprofit funded by an American-born Marxist tech tycoon, Neville Roy Singham, who lives in Shanghai.
This is literally the red / green alliance funded by NGOs. It was always their end game. Unfortunately for them, they outed themselves too soon, believing their victory inevitable.
Draft all Gen Zers into the military and send them to boot camp to install some discipline in them. Give them a 4 year enlistment. Universal military service. Then they will be ready for the Universities.
One year mandatory civil service – not necessary military – but not office work.
Before the rebound of the manufacturing sector is in full steam, construction of facilities (prisons, shelters, mental institutions) should start once the data centers are completed.
Once safer elections ensue, President Trump needs to remove the hordes of illegals and criminals in ‘sanctuary’ cities. The denizens of blue cities – who might have once supported a saner democrat party – are being run by foreigners and criminals. Small business’ forced shut down due to overreaction to the chinese flu and then had to reopen their doors and forced to welcome thieves into their store. Illegal food trucks parked right outside of restaurants. No tents in public spaces or megaphones at ‘protests’.
I don’t know, where will the discipline come from in civil service? Look at our civil servants today. The Post Office. The IRS. Social Security. The deep state. Try dealing with your state or local bureaucracy. So many are arrogant, unmotivated and even surely. It would seem self defeating to me.
Of course there should be exemptions for people unable to serve like people with disabilities, other health issues and religious exemptions like the Amish.
Civil (not office) work – along the lines of cleaning national parks, inner cities, building housing, visiting elderly, helping farmers, feeding the poor – etc.
I am not sure that training some of today’s brainwashed youth to use live weapons is a positive idea.
As I had to do when I screwed up (minor offense) in the military, police the grounds picking up garbage and the cigarette butts, do KP duty, and guard duty!
There can be a “training setup” regardless of path.
I work with Gen Z.
They do little and only the bare minimum.
…and complain.
HR departments started all of this complaining idiocy.
They would screw up a large order of fries. And they typically do!
My granddaughter is a Gen Z. She is a college senior with a neuroscience/psychology dual major and business minor at a large public research university. Plus, she works part-time to fund her education. Plus, she plays on one of the university’s sports teams. Plus, she studied abroad last semester and saw much of Europe on the weekends (for cheap).
Hyper responsible.
Gen Z is not a total loss.
best idea I’ve heard all year…
I like this, but four years is too long and civil service is a viable alternative.
no high school diploma without 2 or 4 years of military service to this country no exceptions even special needs can do something for USA 2 years if not going to college e.g. trade and 4 years if going to college so many other countries do mandatory service to their country

A lot of good advice there.
Portions are another part of it. People need to understand that during difficult times you eat to live, not to gorge yourself. Two meals a day, small portions. One instant ramen pack is two servings.
Sounds difficult at first but one gets used to it.
That sounds like a horrible way to live.
Instant ramen packs???????
You will not be eating rib eyes.
You will eat zee bugs and be happy!
There are a lot of You Tube videos that speak to the depression era and low income types of savings and/or getting one’s budgets in order….it must be a popular topic.
Got chickens?
No, but its tempting…
How a foreign government helped accused Saudi spy’s family flee US after OpenAI bug scandal
Abdulrahman Alfozan allegedly planted listening devices inside OpenAI and searched records on Saudi government dealings
A former OpenAI engineer accused of secretly planting listening devices inside the artificial intelligence giant’s facilities was communicating with Saudi royalty and searching company records involving the Kingdom before his arrest, according to federal prosecutors who are investigating whether his alleged surveillance was intended to benefit a foreign government.
In a detention filing Sunday, prosecutors revealed that Saudi government officials helped arrange international travel for Abdulrahman Alfozan’s wife and three-month-old son shortly after his arrest.
They also raised concerns about Alfozan’s potential access to foreign government assistance if released.

‘Canada is very, very close’: Iranian Canadians warn Toronto could face Paris-style unrest
As anti-Israel protesters gathered at Yonge-Dundas Square, Iranian Canadians pointed to unrest in Paris as a warning of what they fear could happen on Canadian streets.

“very very close” which means they are keeping track of the magic percentage numbers. What is it? About 10% of population and they start being more France like?
Here are stats from 2015 for many countries:

In 2015, France was at 8 percent. President Trump recently commented that he warned Macron to shut the borders early in his first term.

Zelensky Knows Peace Deal Would End Him, Lavrov Says
“Understands that any agreement acceptable to both Russia & the US would spell the end of his regime & his own personal end as well.”
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/zelensky-knows-peace-deal-would-end-him-lavrov-says
Zelensky needs to grovel more to the EU. They would give him some position within their bloated bureaucracy.
Then again, money is tight.
No doubt France is planning their financial requests…maybe Z needs to go to the back of the line?
Today in Oslo, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will meet with Finnish President Alexander Stubb and Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre.
U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff will also join the meeting, while Donald Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, will participate via video link.
The meeting in Norway was initiated by the Ukrainian side.

Meanwhile the EU Parliament can’t raise funds to meet a budget,
France is burning…what’s will occur on the next stop ?
An insulting gold-coated statue of President Donald Trump titled the Orange Plague has been put on display in the European Parliament building.
Danish artist Jens Galschiot created the statue and is said to have coated the satirical statue with 23-karat gold leaf.
The figure, which is sitting inside the building in Strasbourg, France, is also known by the name of the ‘King of Injustice’ – and is the latest flashpoint in the worsening transatlantic rift.
The unflattering statue stands at an intersection that connects two of the parliament’s buildings, where it will remain until Thursday.
The piece protests against Mr Trump’s approach to climate change, with Mr Galschiot describing it as a ‘satirical outcry’ against the ‘US assault on the green transition and the rule-based world order’.
Exodus 20:4-6
Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:
Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.

Kansas Democrat Adam Hamilton Says Christians Do Not Have to Believe Jesus’s Mother Was a Virgin
https://www.breitbart.com/faith/2026/10/19/kansas-dem-adam-hamilton-christians-donthaveto-believe-jesus-mother-virgin/
Democrat Kansas U.S. Senate candidate and woke Methodist pastor Adam Hamilton claimed the Virgin Birth is an optional belief for Christians and is only insisted upon in “fundamentalism.” Now, how did the biology of that work?
God is all powerful, nothing is impossible for god. How did life start on Earth? Now, how did the biology of that work? Well god make all life, just like that!
What he says would mean Christ’s father was not god (the Holy Spirit) and there would be no Christ, no Christianity, no grace from god, and no salvation.
The man is heretic and a fool.
“Christians” well maybe not?
Roman Catholics, yes. The basis of the “Virgin Birth”….Mary was born without sin in order for her to give birth to Our Lord and Savior, who was also sinless….and Genesis 3:15.
To each his own I guess.
Wouldn’t Mary have to be a child of Adam and Eve also for Lord Jesus to be Emmanuel, God among us?
Anyway, its for all Christians. If the Virgin Birth is optional, its all optional.
Numbers 23:19
God is not a man; he will not lie. God is not a human being; his decisions will not change. If he says he will do something, then he will do it. If he makes a promise, then he will do what he promised.
Our God is faithful!
Not a theologian just a cradle catholic…
Mary’s earthly parens were Ann and Joachim, both later on became Saints. Tradiiton has it she, Mary, was raised and studied the scriptures of the times.
This is one place where the Septuagint shines.
The word used in Isaiah 7:14 that prophecies a virgin birth can be translated as virgin or young girl. The Jews who translated the Hebrew into Greek chose virgin. Mathew 1:22-23 sites this. Luke tells us Gabriel stated it to Mary.
The Hebrew Bible explicitly chooses to use young girl.
Oddly, Jerome, though he used the Hebrew also chose virgin. And the many Protestants who preferred the Hebrew too also seem to keep it virgin.
There is a lot made of this difference. But I wonder if it is just hokum. How many young girls weren’t virgins?
He must be kin to James Talafreako! Both of these idiots are heretics and liars. Unfortunately the church is full of these false prophets. Pray for discernment, mercy and grace as we walk this evil world.
May your day be blessed………..hang tuff Treepers

Intifada for All
“The Dems are a total mess of cluster B psychopathology. They will continue to humiliate themselves & alienate the normal population.” — JD Haltigan on X
https://www.kunstler.com/p/intifada-for-all
Looks like the punishments will continue across the pond until morale improves. France on fire in the “mostly peaceful” riots — according to the BBC — this past weekend could yet ignite a final, furious, Globalist-Jacobin bid to wreck Western Civ as populist nationalism looms ever larger to defeat them.
President Macron stepped up Sunday to ask, “How can French people do this to France?” as the ancient tower of the Limoges city hall collapsed in flames. Somebody please inform him that the parties responsible for all the fiery chaos are not necessarily French people. Any way you cut it, this has got to be the end-of-pretend that flooding Europe with jihadis for two decades was a grand and noble idea. Where’s that whiff of grapeshot when you really need it?
You also must wonder whether the American Lefty-left has riot-envy.
To answer this question “How can French people do this to France?”
Because they are not real Frenchmen/women?

Steelers-Saints Game In Paris Still On Despite Riots, NFL Says
https://dailycaller.com/2026/10/19/pittsburgh-steelers-new-orleans-saints-paris-france-riots-nfl/
The Week 7 contest set for Oct. 25 between the Pittsburgh Steelers and New Orleans Saints, which takes place in Paris, France, is still on as scheduled despite riots and protests in the European nation.
“Preparations continue as scheduled for NFL events and the game at Stade de France next Sunday,” said the NFL in a statement, per ESPN. “We continue to work closely with local authorities and partners on all operational and security matters. We are also providing the two clubs with regular updates. There’s been no disruption or impact at league sites.”
Don’t they think a world wide televised game might bring the communist/muslim protesters to the stadium at game time?
Arrogant fools?
Could get exciting with all the extra fireworks.
Man, just watched this the other night again. I thought one of the funniest lines, I just picked up on is when he tells the California surfer that the Vietnamese don’t surf………..
They may keep a low profile if the word goes out from their handlers to stand down.
The NFL is a huge globalist organization,
Trying to shove American football down the throats of the world greedily seeking more $$$$$$$$$$$.
The NFL will go along with the pretending of “mostly peaceful bonfires”.
yea, damn, and all of those globalists packing the stadiums, because that is what it is as opposed to people just wanting to see American football live.

Ted Nugent at the KS rally yesterday
8 min Video:
https://nitter.click/RichardStiller4/status/2112328966640140403#m
I saw Ted a few weeks ago at Charles Town Casino, WV and he kicked butt as usual. My first Ted Nugent concert was 50 Years ago June 1976. My ears rang for 3 days. The “Free for All” album was released October 1976 so its 50 Anniversary.
“Free for All”
Uncle Ted turns 78 this December. In the late 1980s my first job was in Detroit and I listened to him and his future wife Shemaine flirt shamelessly on the air during her morning drive time news segments. They got married in 1989. I always think “hey, I was there at the beginning” of their long relationship.
I saw Ted Nugent at the checkerdome in st louis in 1978.
I really dont remember much about it.
One of the best concerts that I dont remember after he opened and the party started
I first saw the Nuge at Rich Stadium “Super Fest” 1977. The Motor City Madman put on quite a show.
Great song!
This is one of my favorites –
Badass and definitely his best album, the self-titled………
‘Pure safety’: As migrants riot in France, another nation touts ‘SHOOT THEM DEAD’ border policy
https://www.wnd.com/2026/10/pure-safety-as-migrants-riot-france-another-nation/
With civil unrest, rioting and violence increasing across France in recent days, including countless migrants protesting conditions there, another European nation is touting its simple and effective means to enforce the border: Shoot unlawful migrants dead.
“Do not come to the Polish border, or you will be dead, shot dead,” said Polish Member of European Parliament Dominik Tarczyński in a recent interview. “Do not come to the Polish border. I’m very clear for years.”
Continued the official: “If you are coming, it’s your own risk. Do not cry over that. Do not tell me that you were shot, you were pushed back, whatever, whatever.”
This is why it took Russia, Prussia, and Austria to defeat Poland, why they divided up Poland and removed it from the map until after WW2. The Polish spirit. Long live Poland!
The US could use the same border policy.
Dear Poland,
That’s the way Russia–not the Soviet Union, but Russia–feels about NATO Expansion and Nazis.
And I don’t blame them. The west broke the promise to Russia when the Soviet Union fell of never including Russian border countries in NATO. The west is at fault here first letting Finland into NATO and then trying to with Ukraine. That was Russia’s red line.
Trump talks about illegal immigration except what we see is not congruent with our nation or government.
Invaders who want to stay and get a job are welcomed and we pay all their expenses to keep them here.
Then what???
When AI and robotics are on the horizon jobs will be only the trades.
Would it not be better and less expensive to just help their country?
I do understand the trades field is lacking workers but why not offer incentives to Americans?
Illegal immigration is an end, not a beginning. Generally, the process in a Third World nation starts with benevolent foreign aid. Donations of basic necessities are converted to cash by being sold on the international market, even before being unloaded from the shipping containers. The cash is used to purchase military assets, machine guns and Toyotas, by the local thugs and bums, who lord it over the peasantry. The Third World despots then pursue pogroms against their own citizens, seizing the property of those who oppose them, and taking the children away to the cobalt mines. The poor souls who are penniless victims of this abuse sell themselves to NGOs, which import them into clueless nations, such as France.
We do help their countries. It’s just one big circle of fraud and those that need the help aren’t in the loop.
We’ve seen this over and over as burdened taxpayers. We pay billions to the country’s they came from and then we pay the illegals when they invade our country. We pay so well, the invaders are immediately middle class. No generation of sacrifice and hardship required to lift up the immigrant as with prior generations of legal immigrants.
The answer is never more money that only results in more fraud and the will to NOT solve BUT expand the problem at hand.
Decades ago, a relative came to visit after returning from a trip to Central America. Here is what they were told by the security detail assigned to their travel tour as they were looking accross a beautiful vista at a brand new bridge. They were told the bridge was built with monies given by a foreign western nation. I forget which, maybe France? He said the only reason the money was actually used for what it was attended for, was because that particular western country never just gave the money to the country. The country actually did all the work to insure that the money was spent for the intended purpose. He then stated, all the other countries sending money is fraudulently spent. Seems so simple. If our Government actually wanted to solve problems and help people they could…
From X/Twitter: @EricLDaugh
“IT’S OFFICIAL: President Trump announces the United States will have to WITHDRAW from European nations if they fall to the invasion and become anti-Western
“If they don’t soon find their way, we will have no choice but to LEAVE.”
“When we asked for help in Iran…we spend so much on NATO…they weren’t there to help!”
“It’s something we can NEVER forget.”
America has spent decades and trillions defending Europe. Trump is done doing it without getting anything back https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/svg/1f525.svg
If Europe won’t defend its own borders, why should Americans bail them out?!
STEP UP, EUROPE. Shut your borders, surge defense spending, and NEVER fall to the invaders of the 3rd world!”

“South Korea will pull some embassy staff out of Ukraine, citing Kyiv’s failure to take constructive steps to resolve a weekslong dispute sparked by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s disclosure of the transfer of two North Korean prisoners of war (POWs) to the South, the foreign ministry said Tuesday.
The decision adds pressure on Kyiv after South Korea recalled Ambassador Park Ki-chang on Oct. 8 over its refusal to acknowledge a confidentiality agreement on the transfer and issue a public apology. Park returned to Seoul on Oct. 10.”
