I agree. That’s why I’m not totally agreeing with what Orangina posted, but I wanted to at least post Trump’s reactions, true or not.
As we say in Ireland I wouldn't put anything past any of them. For so many of them lying is not a last resort but a first one. Who knows if Trump has the least clue what is going on? About anything really?
Psalm 146:3 3 Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help. https://www.politico.com/news/2026/07/04/planned-parenthood-abortion-medicaid-congress-00985879 Planned Parenthood’s beleaguered network of clinics will regain access to hundreds of millions in Medicaid funding this weekend — the fallout of Republicans’ failure to pass an extension of the one-year defunding provision they approved last year. Starting July 5, clinics around the country can once again bill the federal program for reimbursement after providing non-abortion services, like birth control and screenings for sexually-transmitted infections, to low-income patients. Though other funding threats loom, it’s a lifeline for the struggling organization, which has closed nearly 30 health centers nationwide that collectively served more than 40,000 patients since the defunding provision in the GOP’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act took effect in July 2025.
It’s a sad situation that the world is as Pilate saw it and only Christ is the Truth. We at best see through a glass darkly, but He knows every thought word and deed that has ever happened, every real motive for every decision, and completely at that, something which is beyond even the one making the decision.
I like to look on the bright side , especially since things are so grim and dark. This is Scriptural since St Paul encouraged us to do this. One thing that is a great source of hope to me is how many lies and cover ups are being exposed at the moment. Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report, if there be any virtue and if there be any praise, think on these things.
Matthew 24 6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of birth pains. 9 “Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me. 10 At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, 11 and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. 12 Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, 13 but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. Sure seems like most of this has been ticked off.
https://catholicstand.com/the-last-days-of-the-earth-are-here/ 2 Timothy 3: 1-5: But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of stress. For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, inhuman, implacable, slanderers, profligates, fierce, haters of good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, holding the form of religion but denying the power of it. Avoid such people. 2 Peter 3: 1-10: “This is now the second letter that I have written to you, beloved, and in both of them I have aroused your sincere mind by way of reminder; that you should remember the predictions of the holy prophets and the commandment of the Lord and Savior through your apostles. First of all you must understand this, that scoffers will come in the last days with scoffing, following their own passions and saying, “Where is the promise of his coming? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things have continued as they were from the beginning of creation.” They deliberately ignore this fact, that by the word of God heavens existed long ago, and an earth formed out of water and by means of water, through which the world that then existed was deluged with water and perished. But by the same word the heavens and earth that now exist have been stored up for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men. But do not ignore this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slow about his promise as some count slowness, but is forbearing toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance. But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a loud noise, and the elements will be dissolved with fire, and the earth and the works that are upon it will be burned up.”
What’s the source of that report? It would be just the kind of lie that Israel, who wish the US war on Iran to continue, would put about. However, the world knows that it is Israel (eg JFK and Charlie Kirk) and the US (the entire cabinet of Iran in the midst of negotiations) who practice these policies.
Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. However he died, the world is a safer place this week than it was last week. Whatever he was doing with Zelensky, it is certain he was up to no good.
We live in a world ruled by demented presidents and dead senators. I think it will frighten those who remain self-aware far more to see someone receive God’s call so suddenly and finally. Some of them seem to carry on as if death is something that happens to the little people or is imposed upon them by their enemies via assassination. You might be able to escape Iskander missiles or assassinations or even assassination by Iskander, but you won’t be able to escape God.
The link below is relevant to the discussions about what happened to Senator Graham. Whatever happened to him, he was the kind of man whose character and lifestyle lent difficulty to easily accepting his quiet death at home. https://voxday.net/
