Thanks for posting the video...
It certainly seems that history can repeat itself if people do not remember the past or choose to ignore it...

RE: Don't know which of these 2 is the biggest drama queen

Get a mental health checkup, you clearly need it. You hate him because the man on CNN told you so. Tell me exactly what is so bad about this man. Biden's son is drug addict and a looser, However Trumps kids all turned out well. The acorn doesn't fall far from the tree.

RE: Don't know which of these 2 is the biggest drama queen

Get some Psychiatric help.
The obsession over Donald Trump that you have is a sign of poor mental health.
Think about it, you don't even know why you hate him, but you hate him with a personal vengeance, a person you never even met. Get psychiatric help, you surly need it.

He was vice president in 2014...I think all vice presidents have aspirations to one day be president...

Mike Pence did throw his hat into this election...as did Gore after Clinton...Who BTW was the last president who could compromise...

I had the best time last night at dinner with my friend for her birthday...We had a cool waiter..Years ago, his family had ties with the mafia...

His impressions of Trump and Biden...made my night...

Like he said...almost all politicians are corrupt....it is the one’s who the media adore..that get an out of jail free card..

RE: Rico is not a crime

Where did do see Biden senior placed his son in Burisma?

Hunter joined Burisma in 2014, long before Joe had aspirations to become President.

You always fall for the right wing lies.

Do some research, the truth is out there.

What Makes Jesus Unique? No one else made the claims that He did, He is alive...............

After Mao’s death in 1976, there was somewhat of a liberalizing movement in the Chinese Communist Party. Deng Xiaoping (1904-1997), who had been “purged” during the Cultural Revolution, re-emerged as a leader of the moderate pragmatists. In his book, Jesus in Beijing, David Aikman, former Beijing bureau chief, Time Magazine, writes, “It was already clear in the 1980s that Christians were beginning to show up, though almost never identified as such, within the Chinese Communist Party.” Aikman notes, “From the grassroots of the peasantry to high within China’s establishment, the country was being seeded with believing Christians” (p. 9). Since 2013, President Xi Jinping has returned China to the hardline Marxism of Mao. His father was a moderate, but he certainly is not.

A Look In the Past — A Hope for the Future
In the Shandong revival, God used many men and women, Chinese and foreign, as instruments of revival. Dr. C.L. Culpepper, a graduate of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, in Fort Worth, Texas, and his wife, Ola, were appointed Southern Baptist missionaries to China in the 1920s. Ola had developed serious eye problems which caused her great pain. On the mission field the Culpeppers met Marie Monsen, a Norwegian evangelical Lutheran. Monsen asked the Culpeppers, “Have you been filled with the Holy Spirit? Have you prayed for the healing of your wife?”

In his book, The Shantung Revival (available online, gospeltruth.net/shantung.htm) Dr. Culpepper says he was not ready for Monsen’s questions. The next morning about 20 people were gathered in the Culpepper home for a prayer meeting. “We felt an electric excitement,” writes Culpepper, “a feeling that God was preparing us for something we had never known before. After praying for several hours we all seemed in a complete spirit of communion.”

They prayed for Ola’s eyesight and had many other petitions. God was evidently present. Two Chinese men who were cooks for the missionary residences were also present. Something wonderful was happening. It was common knowledge that these men had some issue, some grudge, and were never seen together, but during the prayer meeting they both accepted Christ and embraced. There was such joy in the group that they had forgotten all about Ola. What about Ola? She was so excited. Her vision had returned in that eye, and the pain was gone. Culpepper writes, the problem “never returned. We had never known such spiritual joy. The events surrounding those days in Chefoo were the prelude to the great Shantung Revival” (p. 6).

What Makes Jesus Unique? No one else made the claims that He did, He is alive...............

The Chinese Communist Party has a long-standing and brutal disrespect for Christianity. In December of 1950, in the city of Qingdao, in Shandong Province, a church was visited by government officials who demanded the use of the church building for a communist conference a few days before Christmas. Pastor David Wang had no choice, but gave three conditions: no politically-themed portraits or posters, no flags displayed in the church building, and absolutely no smoking on the premises.

The conference had barely begun when the conditions were violated. A portrait of Chairman Mao Tse-tung was hung behind the pulpit with flags on either side, while several people in the audience were smoking. A blue haze hung in the air. Pastor Wang, who had a gentle and non-confrontational life-style, asked his family to join him for prayer in the pastor’s study. Then he walked down the aisle of the crowded church, removed the portrait of Mao as well as the flags, and calmly walked out. He and his family quickly fled to Hong Kong. (Hattaway, Shandong: The Revival Province, p. 175).

In the 1950s, Communism became more controlling and demanding. The government ordered multitudes of Christians to register and to promise to abide by its rules. Some pastors sought to train their congregations how to handle an interrogation by Party officials. One elderly farmer told his pastor he would respond to the interrogators as the Holy Spirit led him.

The interrogator asked the man, “What has Christianity done for you?” “It made me a better person,” the farmer answered. The official looked at the assembled villagers and asked, “Is that true?” “Yes,” the villagers replied. “His farm used to be the dirtiest and worst in the village, but now it is the best.”

When the farmer was pressed to explain how these changes had occurred, the farmer spoke with conviction and authority. “I was a drunkard and an opium smoker. Nothing could rid me of these two vices, and my farm had been brought to ruin.” The man raised his voice and said, “I accepted Jesus as my Savior, and He changed me. He enabled me to break with both opium and drink” (Hattaway, Shandong, p. 175).

A Century of Struggle
In the late 19th century and early 20th century, churches were being planted in China, souls saved and, in addition, hospitals and schools that were church-based were being built. The early years of the 20th century saw revival break out in Shandong Province, located on the Yellow Sea, across from the Korean Peninsula. It was a dramatic outpouring of God’s Spirit, exceeding every other revival in modern times. But in the late 1930s, the Japanese invasion of China brought great suffering. Japanese soldiers raped and pillaged China (“The Rape of Nanking”). Imperial soldiers tried to convince the Chinese Christians that the Godhead consisted of Father, Son, the Holy Spirit — AND the Japanese emperor. Refusal to accept this theological monstrosity brought torture and death.

Then came the Communist Revolution, the defeat of Chiang Kai-shek, his flight to what is now Taiwan, and the rise of Mao. The Japanese invasion and Communism forced the church to go “underground.” These were difficult years, but God was not done with China. Eric Liddell, the Scottish Olympian, had his story told in the 1981 movie Chariots of Fire. Liddell was born in China of missionary parents and returned to his birthplace despite warnings of imminent danger. Shandong, China’s “Revival Province,” was being overrun by Japanese troops and in a state of chaos. Liddell ministered the Gospel and spent much of his energies helping the wounded, the sick, and the dying. In 1943, Liddell was imprisoned with more than 2,000 other foreigners, including 327 children. He died in 1945 doing what God had called him to do—share the love of Christ in a loveless, hate-filled environment.

RE: Rico is not a crime

Knowingly co-ordinating with others who did break the law is a crime, specifically, it's a crime of conspiracy, so prosecutors would have to prove that.

For example, you can't observe a professional hit and declare the spouse, or business partner ordered it without evidence that they did. You have to prove that active conspiracy to murder.

Flowers In the Sand
Larry Spargimino...February 15, 2022

I am in the process of writing a book on the subject of revival in the last days. I believe that God is changing the world and His people for an end-time harvest. On the front cover we intend to put a photo I took hiking at Great Sand Dunes National Park in Western Colorado several years ago. It’s a picture of a beautiful flower growing out of a sand dune. It portrays what is happening today in places hostile to the Gospel. The beauty and persevering vitality of the Gospel brings revival in hostile settings.

After making my first trip to Pakistan in 2009 and interviewing Joel Rosenberg in that same year on his book, Inside the Revolution: How the Followers of Jihad, Jefferson & Jesus Are Battling to Dominate the Middle East and Transform the World, I came to realize that people are receiving new life in Christ all over the world.

Will Technology Destroy the Gospel In China?
The present government in China is hostile to all religions. Facial recognition technology and an invasive social credit system are onerous, and technology is making it impossible to evade, or so it would seem. Yet the underground church in China is sending out more missionaries to countries in the “10-40 window”—those countries from China westward, including Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran and the other Islamic " nations”—than any other nation. And this is being done in a country where “the walls have ears and the trees have eyes.”

The Chinese State Administration of Religious Affairs recently announced new restrictive measures that will go into effect March 1, 2022. Christian ministries must “not incite subversion or oppose the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) leadership.” This is a mandate that virtually condemns anything and everything in the Bible. How is it possible that the illegal underground church is not only surviving but actually thriving in such a hostile situation?

In his book, China and End-Time Prophecy: How God Is Using the Red Dragon to Fulfill His Ultimate Purposes, Eugene Bach (a pseudonym) writes:

“Pastor Enoch (a pseudonym) … with four other leaders … runs an underground house church of more than four million believers … … is completely off the grid. He doesn’t have email, a website, a Facebook or Twitter account, a private office, or a secretary, and yet he disciples hundreds of leaders every day, hosts daily illegal church services with thousands of believers all over China, and sends out an average of ten new missionaries per month to the most unreached areas of the world” (p. 7).

The Christian community is deeply indebted to Bach. He is an insider who brings first-hand testimony regarding God’s work in the unregistered church. That the underground church could make such amazing advances in a hi-tech modern nation of committed Maoists should be an inspiration to Christians living in 21st century America.

There has been much suffering, and martyrdom in China, but Pastor Zhang Rongligang, probably one of the best-known house church pastors in China, said he believes that the church in China has benefited from the suffering it has experienced.

“Today, the underground house churches in China are not trying to survive. They are unified in the Back to Jerusalem vision, and churches are sending out missionaries into Muslim, Buddhist, Hindu, and atheist countries around the world. Our church now has missionaries serving in Pakistan, Dubai, India, and many other nations that are hostile to the Gospel. Additionally, our young people are moving into China’s cities in large numbers, but it is not for the purpose of making money. They are moving here to plant churches, to preach the gospel, to raise support for foreign missions, and to send new firebrand believers into the field. I can’t help but feel excited about the future of China and the Chinese church”(Bach, p. 166).

The Cross and the Red Flag

RE: How to raise $454 Million...

Jac, I know you think you're grabbing this guy by his family jewels here
and tossing him to the bonfire but his chances of winning the election just went up.

A politically motivated unfair campaign, more dirty than the last.
This will go down in history as a shocking moment of insanity.
Misusing the justice system to the max here. And only for him, Oh yea....
He must be taken down you see, too much at stake.

Probably also means they are not a 100% sure they can take him down by stealing it again as there is no covid distance to be kept on election night this time. Less reason for vote-in too.
So this may be their last chance to stop him.

RE: How to raise $454 Million...

Trump provided financial statements under oath that he had $400M cash, so the bulk of all his bond requirements readily available.

If he lied about that, he may be in contempt of court.

If he has the cash, but has since filed motions that he hasn't, he may be liable for fraud (again).

He has recently claimed he neither has the cash he previously swore he had, nor could he secure the amount through any one of 30 bonding companies via four different brokers.

Judge Engoron has now extended Barbara Jones' powers as the independent monitor of the Trump Organisation in a number of different ways. This includes Trump having to inform her in detail of his applications for bonds and what he offered as surety for each application.

It should be noted that it's usual when corporations are obliged to post bonds of this order of magnitude that multiple companies are involved in a carefully structured way to spread the risk.

RE: How to raise $454 Million...

net worth is different from actual liquid assets on hand.

i don't think there are many million and billionaires that keep such high levels of liquid assets or cash on hand.

be careful about "sources". too many have already proven to be false when it comes to trump. some get rich off of "books" about him though.

Useless trivia

An Ancient frog species named after Kermit the Frog by scientists


Kermit the Frog has been around since 1955 – but a new Kermit on the block was actually around much longer ago.


Scientists have uncovered a fossil of an ancient 270-million-year-old amphibian ancestor, and named it after him.


Officially called Kermitops gratus, it earned the name due to its resemblance to The Muppet Show star.


The prehistoric creatures are thought of as one of the first true amphibians, representing a key step in evolution when life went from water to land.

Rico is not a crime

WHY ARE PROSECUTORS USING RICO against Trump.

RICO was originally conceived as a tool to go after mafia kingpins who kept their hands clean by parking ill-gotten gains in shell corporations and leaving the dirty work to underlings.

The law does not require prosecutors to prove that defendants directly engaged in criminal activity, just that they were part of a larger organization that did.

That means prosecutors would not necessarily have to prove Trump personally broke the law but knowingly coordinated with others who did.

Useless trivia

It’s possible to contract a respiratory condition, colloquially referred to as hot-tub lung.


It’s triggered by microbes called mycobacteria, from the same family as those which cause the infection tuberculosis (TB).


Like in TB, hot-tub lung bacteria generate patches of inflammation in the lung tissue. This results in symptoms such as shortness of breath, cough and fever. The lung changes can be seen on an X-ray or CT scan of the chest, and may appear quite profound.


The hot tub acts as a perfect environment for the growth of these bacteria because the warmth of the system creates an optimum temperature for their proliferation. The bubbling of the water also acts as an aerosol – allowing the bacteria to be released into the air, where they can be inhaled.


Unlike TB, which requires long-term antibiotics and is becoming increasingly difficult to treat, hot-tub lung may be considered more of an inflammatory condition.

RE: Rico is not a crime

As for Trump and his co-defendants, they are indicted under the RICO Act, not with the RICO Act.

It means that a group of people are being charged as an organised group, rather than as individuals.

Each of them will have allegedly committed different crimes, but as a group they were working with a common illegal goal.

As such, each of them will charged with all the crimes of the group.

This methodology has two important aims: firstly, the leader of the group who may order crimes can be held accountable for those crimes as if they committed them; secondly, the minor players are more likely to agree to plea and testify for the prosecution rather than suffer a harsh punishment wholly disproportionate to their crime, thus corroborating the evidence in the case.

RE: Rico is not a crime

A simple explanation might be:

You can be arrested for or on suspicion of committing a crime under an Act.

The precise Act reference need not be given at time of arrest but a clear reason for the arrest must be given.

Example: Drunk driving under The Road Traffic Act.
