Top Ten Moments from Trump's CNN Town Hall
|
|
Former President Donald Trump appeared on CNN Wednesday night for a town hall with moderator Kaitlan Collins and an audience of Republican and independent voters.
Trump was... Trump - an unapologetic steamroller who didn't let Collins bully him into admitting that he lost the 2020 election (and called Collins a "nasty person" at one point). Here are the top 10 moments from last night;
Rigged election
"You still have not acknowledged the 2020 election results, but you are also under active federal investigation for trying to overturn the 2020 election results," said Collins. "Your first term ended with a deadly riot at the Capitol, and you still have not publicly acknowledged the 2020 election results. Why should Americans put you back in the White House?"
To which Trump replied: "“I think that when you look at that result, and when you look at what happened during that election, unless you’re a very stupid person, you see what happened. A lot of the people—out of the people in this audience and maybe a couple that don’t—but most people understand what happened was a rigged election. And it’s a shame that we had to go through it. It’s very bad for our country. All over the world, they looked at it and they saw exactly what everyone else [saw]."
January 6th
Trump and Collins tussled over the timeline of events on January 6th - pointing out that he called for peaceful protests.
Pardons?
Trump said he would pardon "many" of the January 6th protesters currently sitting in jail.
"I am inclined to pardon many of them," Trump said. "I can’t say for every single one because a couple of them, probably, they got out of control. But, you know, when you look at Antifa, what they’ve done to them… then what they’ve done to these people, they persecuted these people. And yeah, my answer is, I am most likely if I get in, I will most likely—I wouldn’t say it will be a large portion of them. You know, they did a very [applause] and it’d be very early on," he continued (via PJ Media). Read more

- Abba, we thank you for your son Donald. Thank you that you have created and equipped him to accomplish everything you have purposed for him to walk in. Father God, the enemy has been and continues to rage against him. We are asking for your continued protection of his mind, heart, spirit, emotions and body from all attacks, that you continue to keep his mind sharp and his spirit sensitive to your voice as you walk him through the minefield that has become his life. Father, we ask that going forward we will see your hand more and more revealing truth and exposing the enemy within the mainstream media
and our political system.
Abba, we ask the same protection for Melania and Barron. We pray the blood of Jesus over all of them, in your mighty name! We wait expectantly for the revelation of your plan "on earth as it is in heaven." AMEN and AMEN.
- "I will raise up Cyrus to fulfill my righteous purpose, and I will guide his actions. He will restore my city and free my captive people -- without seeking a reward! I, the Lord of Heaven's Armies, have spoken!" (Isaiah 45:13)

The Censorship Complex: Top 50 Organizations to Know
|
|
Shortly after the election of Donald Trump, it was becoming gospel among the future leaders of the “Censorship-Industrial Complex” that interference by “malign foreign threat actors” and the vicissitudes of Western domestic politics must be linked. Everything, from John Podesta’s emails to Trump’s Rust Belt primary victories to Brexit, were to be understood first and foremost as hybrid war events.
This is why the Trump-Russia scandal in the United States will likely be remembered as a crucial moment in 21st-century history, even though the investigation superficially ended a non-story, fake news in itself. What the Mueller investigation didn’t accomplish in ousting Trump from office, it did accomplish in birthing a vast new public-private bureaucracy devoted to stopping “mis-, dis-, and malinformation,” while smoothing public acquiescence to the emergence of a spate of new government agencies with “information warfare” missions.
The “Censorship-Industrial Complex” is just the Military-Industrial Complex reborn for the “hybrid warfare” age.
Much like the war industry, pleased to call itself the “defense” sector, the “anti-disinformation” complex markets itself as merely defensive, designed to fend off the hostile attacks of foreign cyber-adversaries who unlike us have “military limitations.” The CIC, however, is neither wholly about defense, nor even mostly focused on foreign “disinformation.” It’s become instead a relentless, unified messaging system aimed primarily at domestic populations, who are told that political discord at home aids the enemy’s undeclared hybrid assault on democracy.

- Abba, to quote George Orwell from his book, "1984", 'Big Brother is watching'. In 2023, it would be more accurately stated, "he is watching, listening, and tracking!!" I continue to be amazed at Mr. Orwells insights into what he could see happening in the future. Father God, this is a battle that is so encompassing and, by intent, confusing, that it is truly hard to know how to pray.
Host of Heaven's Armies, we fall at your feet and ask for mercy, for protection, for wisdom, revelation and courage. We are asking for vision as we listen for your voice forming our prayers. We are asking for scriptures to come into our thoughts so we can decree and declare your words over the demonic Orwellian structure in which we find ourselves. Father God, your word says that you have given those of us called by your name authority "over all the power of the enemy ", teach us to pray from that point of power, sitting at your right hand. We ask this in Jesus' mighty, powerful, all encompassing name. AMEN
- When the seventy-two disciples returned, they joyfully reported to him,
"Lord, even the demons obey us when we use your name!"
"Yes," he told them. "I saw Satan fall from heaven like lightning!
Look, I have given you authority over all the power of the enemy, and
you can walk among snakes and scorpions and crush them.
Nothing will injure you."
(Luke 10:17-19)

Biden Family Tried to Hide Over Ten Million Dollars in Foreign Payments
|
|
Summary: House Republicans laid out evidence of a vast network of Biden family dealings which reek of corruption - including;
- The Biden family received, and tried to hide, over $10 million in payments from foreign nationals
- A previously undisclosed $1 million in Romanian-linked payments
- Ties to Romanian 'influence peddling'
- A 'web' of 20 LLCs created while Joe Biden was Vice President with a 'complicated corporate structure'
- 'At least 15' of the LLCs were formed after Biden became VP in 2009 - several of which were owned or co-owned by Hunter
- These LLCs accepted payments ranging from $5,000 to $3 million
- The committee wants to know what legitimate business the Biden family was in
"Biden family members and business associates created a web of over 20 companies—most were limited liability companies formed during Joe Biden’s vice presidency," reads a memorandum. "Bank records show the Biden family, their business associates, and their companies received over $10 million from foreign nationals’ companies. The Committee has identified payments to Biden family members from foreign companies while Joe Biden served as Vice President and after he left public office. (Zero Hedge) Read more

- Abba, in our nation we are to believe that a person is innocent until proven guilty if a crime has possibly been committed. We know in many places that this is no longer deemed important. Jesus, we want to walk these circumstances out in truth and righteousness, only.
Father God, we ask that you remind us to check our own hearts and seek your face as this story unfolds and you call us to prayer. We ask you to bring into the light the kind of proof necessary to ensure that the guilt or innocence in this case is unquestionable, that there be no way to twist the facts or create confusion. We ask that you bring your justice to bear on the facts and that the voice of the enemy be silenced. Lord, remind everyone involved in this situation that you are the final judge, that each of us will face you when we are called home. May each of us hear you say, "Well done, good and faithful servant".
- "Do not twist justice in legal matters by favoring the poor or being partial to the rich and powerful. Always judge people fairly." (Leviticus 19:19)

BREAKING: House Republicans pass huge border security packatge!
|
|
Sara, this a critical first win for addressing Joe Biden’s open border crisis.
Heritage Action successfully fought for critical provisions in this legislation that will actually secure our border and keep Americans safe, such as:
- Closing legal loopholes to end the asylum fraud
- Ending “Catch and Release”
- Reimplementing policies like Remain in Mexico
- Completing the border wall
- Mandating E-Verify to ensure legal employment
- Supplying Border Patrol with the necessary personnel and tools
Now, the legislation moves to the Senate, where anti-solution Chuck Schumer will refuse to allow consideration of border security and allow Joe Biden’s intentional policy of open borders, fentanyl, and chaos to continue. It will now be up to the American people to decide which direction they want the country to go: safe and secure borders or chaos, drugs, and mayhem.
We need your help to keep the momentum of grassroots activists going and to see this fight through to the end. Can we count on your immediate support to fuel our fight to secure the border? Go here.
|
|
- Abba, we give you praise and glory, because the House of Representatives passed a Border Security Package bill that would help stop the trafficking at the border and ease the human suffering that has been allowed since President Biden took office. Father God, this bill would be a giant step in reestablishing order out of the chaos that is taking place right now at the borders from Texas to California.
Father God, we need your help. Now that the bill has been passed in the House it will be sent to the Senate with the expectation that a vote for or against it will be taken, but Lord, Senator Chuck Schumer, is not going to allow this bill to go through the normal process allowing that vote to be taken! Jesus, this is another place the enemy will try to short circuit doing things decently and in order, trying to maintain the open borders allowing more illegals, more trafficking, more lives put at risk. We are asking you to intervene in this evil plan, stop the enemy in his tracks, provide those trying to manage the thousands of people rushing across the borders the manpower, equipment and legal footing to bring this chaos into order. Lord, we are asking you to do what only you can do!
> > > Please pray in the Spirit over this situation until the Lord brings breakthrough, this is truly something only He can bring about...In Jesus' Name. AMEN

1. David’s Sling downs rocket headed for Tel Aviv in first real-world interception - Times of Israel
The David’s Sling air defense system successfully shot down a rocket from the Gaza Strip on Wednesday, a military source said, marking the first real-world interception for the battery.
The rocket was one of three fired at Tel Aviv at around 2:20 p.m. as Islamic Jihad terrorists launched a response to an Israeli offensive that began before dawn Tuesday. The Israel Defense Forces said at least 286 rockets were fired at Israel Wednesday afternoon, with over 60 intercepted by Iron Dome. Three fell in populated areas while the rest fell short in Gaza or landed in open areas.
The other two rockets launched at Tel Aviv landed in open areas, including the sea.
The IDF later confirmed the successful use of the David’s Sling system in a statement. (Read more)

2. Over 800 rockets fired at Israel - Israel National News
The IDF released updated statistics this evening (Thursday) on the number of rockets which have been fired at Israel by the Islamic Jihad terrorist organization since the beginning of Operation Shield and Arrow earlier this week.
According to the IDF, 803 rockets had been fired at Israel as of 8 pm. The IDF had previously reported that 547 rockets had been fired at Israel as of 2:30 pm, meaning that over 250 rockets were fired in under six hours.
One person was killed and five people injured when a rocket struck a residential building in the city of Rehovot this evening.
The IDF further stated that 620 rockets crossed into Israeli airspace, while 152 rockets fell short in Gaza. 179 rockets were intercepted by the Iron Dome and David's Sling missile defense systems. (Read more)

3.Gallant tells US defense chief Austin: Israel is prepared for long campaign in Gaza - Times of Israel
Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on Wednesday told his US counterpart Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin that Israel was prepared to wage a “prolonged campaign” in Gaza, as some of Israel’s other allies condemned Palestinian rocket fire against Israeli civilians.
Gallant and Austin spoke during a day of fighting that saw southern Israeli cities hit by rocket fire, and IDF reprisals in the Gaza Strip, after Israel assassinated three leaders of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror group early Tuesday.
According to Gallant’s office, he and Austin “discussed recent security developments in Israel, including 400 rockets fired” toward Israel, and the killings of the Islamic Jihad leaders.
Gallant noted “the IDF’s readiness for every operational scenario, including a prolonged campaign and multi-front challenges,” his office said. (Read more)

4. Israeli killed as Gaza rocket makes direct hit on building in Rehovot - JNS
(May 11, 2023 / JNS) An Israeli man was killed when a rocket fired from the Gaza Strip struck a four-story building in Rehovot, 12 miles south of Tel Aviv, on Thursday evening.
The unidentified man’s body was reportedly found under the rubble.
It is the first Israeli fatality since the start of “Operation Shield and Arrow” against Palestinian Islamic Jihad in the Gaza Strip.
Five other people were wounded in the rocket attack.
Police officers were searching the site and sappers were removing parts of the rocket. Authorities reiterated calls for civilians to follow the relevant safety guidelines. The rocket fire was the first directed towards central Israel since the previous day. (Read more)

5. As Promised, Islamic Jihad Launches Fresh Evening Rocket Barrage from Gaza - Jewish Press
The Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorist organization launched a fresh barrage of rocket fire at Israel from Gaza promptly at 9 pm, as promised by its spokespersons. Unlike previous attacks, however, the barrage was relatively short-lived.
In addition to its routine attacks on communities in the Gaza Envelope and western Negev, the terror group expanded the range of its rocket fire to include sites in Gush Dan: Holon, Rishon Lezion and Mikve Israel among them.
In Netivot, one house was reportedly hit, but no injuries were reported.
In the Tel Aviv suburb of Bat Yam, one rocket was reported to have hit the city’s shopping mall — but the municipality clarified the smoke resulted from a fire at a cellphone store, and was not a rocket impact.
In Rishon Lezion, the David’s Sling mid-range aerial defense system shot down a longer-range rocket aimed at the city. No injuries or property damage was reported. This was the second time the David’s Sling system has been used since the start of Operation Shield and Arrow — each interceptor missile in the system costs $1 million. (Read more)

1. DOJ Strategically Timed Political Arrest To Coincide With Press Conference Detailing Evidence Of Biden Corruption - The Federalist
The Department of Justice coincidentally decided to arrest New York GOP Rep. George Santos on money laundering and other charges on Wednesday at the same time House Republicans held a press conference revealing damaging evidence about the Biden family’s corrupt, foreign business ventures.
On Tuesday, the DOJ filed charges against Santos in the Eastern District of New York. While originally under seal, the 13-count indictment unveiled Wednesday morning shows the DOJ charging Santos with “seven counts of wire fraud, three counts of money laundering, one count of theft of public funds, and two counts of making materially false statements to the House of Representatives.”
According to the unsealed indictment, Santos allegedly lied on his 2020 and 2022 House Disclosure forms by overstating his income and assets. Meanwhile, notable Democrats who appear to have lied under penalty of perjury, such as Secretary of State Antony Blinken, have not faced such charges from Biden’s DOJ.
It’s amazing how the arrest of Santos came at the exact same moment Republicans on the House Oversight Committee held a press conference documenting the Biden family’s overseas business ventures. Announced earlier this week, Wednesday morning’s presser revealed bank records showing how the Bidens and their associates created a network of more than 20 companies and received “at least $10 million … from foreign nationals’ and their related companies.”
According to the records obtained by House Republicans, most of these 20 companies were purportedly LLCs and created when Biden occupied the vice president’s office. The money trafficked to the Bidens came from several different countries, including China and Romania. (Read more here)

- Father God, we ask for a special dispensation of grace to fall upon those of us who are now standing as watchmen on the wall in these perilous times. How clever of "the powers that be": to have timed the news of the arrest of Republcan Rep. George Santos on the same day that the press was reporting evidence of Biden's corruption!
Lord God, You are much more clever than the leftist press! We thank You that, as we cry out for an unusual anointing to fall upon us at this time, we WILL receive this blessing and rejoice in its truth! Let us not miss anything that is worthy of prayer, nor let any fact "slip under the table" as we continue to stand on the wall with you. Thank You, O Lord, that Your grace IS sufficient for all of our needs, in Jesus' name, amen and amen.
- And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” (2 Corinthians 12:9)

2. Texas Governor Praises Troops for Repelling Illegal Immigrants, Vows that Elite Units Will Continue Effort – The Epoch Times
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said that he has deployed “elite” teams from the Texas National Guard to continue the effort of preventing illegal immigrants from crossing the U.S.-Mexico border while praising Texas troops for physically repelling people from trying to cross the border illegally near Brownsville.
Abbott told Fox News in an interview Wednesday that he has ordered several “elite” Texas National Guard teams to continue efforts to “repel” illegal immigrants from crossing the border after video emerged showing would be border crossers being rebuffed by Texas troops.
“First [they are] to put up barriers, whether it be the razor wire that you saw there or other barriers, and then have National Guard and Texas Department of Public Safety either in front of it or behind it. Our goal is to repel people from coming into the country,” Abbott told the “Jesse Watters Primetime” program. (Read more)

- Heavenly Father, we rejoice that the Texas governor has taken action with a few hundred troops that has proven more effective than the more than a thousand extra troops sent by the man in the Oval Office. We ask You to strengthen the borders of our country with angels to stand guard to prevent this flood of people that have been so deceived by the enemy. Lord, we pray that those You have not destined to be here will quickly return to their home countries to establish God-given leadership in government and their economies.

3. Local and Private COVID Vaccine Mandates at Health Care Facilities Being Reversed, Struck Down Across US – The Epoch Times
Efforts to overturn vaccine mandates for both hospital patients and health care workers appear to be gaining momentum across the United States.
In what’s seen as a major victory for transplant patients who didn’t take the COVID-19 vaccine, one of the largest transplant centers in the United States reversed its policy to require the vaccine in order to be eligible for an organ transplant.
The University of Michigan (UM) announced its new policy on May 4, just before court proceedings started in a lawsuit filed against it for declaring patients ineligible for an organ transplant unless they agreed to receive the vaccine.
The suit was filed on behalf of several patients by David Peters of Pacific Justice Institute, who, in celebrating the reversal, simply said “We’re winning!” (Read more)

4. Economic Despair is Rapidly Spreading as the Cost of Living Rises to Extremely Oppressive Levels – The Economic Collapse Blog
This new economic downturn is starting to bite, and we are starting to see signs of severe pain all over the nation. In fact, unless you are independently wealthy, you are likely feeling pain too. The cost of living has risen to extreme oppressive levels, and this has happened at a time when close to two-thirds of the country was already living paycheck to paycheck. As a result, many Americans are having their finances stretched to the breaking point, and millions of them are reaching out for help. For example, on Saturday morning the line of people waiting for assistance at one of Boston’s largest food pantries “stretched the length of two football fields”
…
In recent months, food stamp benefits have been reduced to pre-pandemic levels, and that has made things even more challenging for those near the bottom of the economic food chain. But it isn’t just those that are unemployed or that are on government assistance that are hurting. At one food bank in Colorado, “military families, teachers, nurses and even dual-income couples” are now coming for help. (Read more)

- Dear Lord, we pray that, during this time of created economic stress, that people will find comfort in a closer relationship with You and will learn how to use Your creative ways to bring in needed finances and cover expenses. We pray that those who need help will find it and that those who are able will turn to their neighbors in need. We above all, pray that those things out of Your alignment in our country will be corrected immediately so that we will look like the country You intended us to be.
- "Keep therefore the words of this covenant, and so them, that ye may prosper in all that ye do." (Deuteronomy 29:9)

This is a marketing nightmare!
Bud Light sales are down significantly ACROSS the entire United States following their decision to sponsor trans-flake Dylan Mulvaney as product spokesperson.
The top advertising Bud Light Vice-President of Marketing Alissa Heinerscheid bragged about reviving the beer brand by trashing its “frattie” consumers and pushing trans dogma on traditiional beer drinkers.
The trans campaign has cost Bud Light sales to collapse. The brand is down double-digits across the US. In Rocky Mountain states sales are down 29%!

6. Washington Governor Signs Law Allowing Trans Surgeries, Drugs for Children Without Parent’s Consent – Lifesite News
Runaway children would be allowed to live with strangers and undergo 'gender transitions' without parental notification under the new law.
The governor of Washington state signed a bill on Tuesday to allow minors to undergo so-called “sex changes” while under the shelter of strangers without parental consent.
In his most recent effort to promote abortion and child mutilation, Democrat Gov. Jay Inslee enacted a law that enables minors who have run away from their parents to pursue transgender drugs and surgeries with the oversight of individuals and programs who are housing them. Although those housing children would be required to report such cases to state departments, notification of and permission from a child’s parents are not required if the child is a seeking a “gender transition.” (Read more)

8. WHO Declares End to COVID 19 Global Public Health Emergency After its Fraudulent Policies Destroyed Lives and Economies – NewsTarget
The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the conclusion of the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) global public health emergency. However, the three-year emergency has had lasting effects. WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus made the declaration during a May 5 news conference held at the global health body’s headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland.
"It has caused severe economic upheaval – erasing trillions from [gross domestic product], disrupting travel and trade, shuttering businesses, and plunging millions into poverty,” he said. “It has [also] caused severe social upheaval with borders closed, movement restricted, schools shut and millions of people experiencing loneliness, isolation, anxiety and depression.” Official numbers from the WHO stated that almost seven million people have died from COVID-19 since the global health body first declared the public health emergency on Jan. 30, 2020. But according to Tedros, the actual number is at least 20 million.

WHO Decides
The Daily Jot, Bill Wilson, May 11, 2023
The World Health Organization (WHO) has joined Joe Biden in declaring an end to the COVID 19 pandemic. WHO has closed a chapter in one of the worst managed pandemics in world history where mandated treatments arguably resulted in more deaths than COVID would have caused without them. Effective treatments were forbidden. Doctors were censored and lost their jobs, Big pharma made billions with unproven, unsafe and ineffective vaccines. Government and business advanced propaganda vilifying anyone who refused the vaccines, and today refuse to admit that vaccine side effects are greater than any and all vaccines combined. WHO made this mess that will last generations.
The fifteenth meeting of the International Health Regulations (2005) (IHR) Emergency Committee regarding the coronavirus 2019 disease (COVID-19) pandemic, was held on Thursday 4 May 2023. It was at that meeting that WHO Director-General, Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus concurred “with the advice offered by the Committee regarding the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. He determines that COVID-19 is now an established and ongoing health issue which no longer constitutes a public health emergency of international concern (PHEIC).” That’s the obvious good news. The bad news in the same WHO announcement is that Ghebreyesus is going to convene the International Health Regulations Review Committee to advise on recommendations for the long-term management of the virus.

LifeSiteNews has launched a new interactive map tracking the growing number of states restricting dangerous transgender surgeries and drugs.
or mobile devices, click and hold the individual states to see the descriptions.
Republican states have passed an unprecedented wave of bills this year cracking down on so-called “gender transitions,” particularly for children.
In the past four months, 14 states have approved laws to ban or limit transgender surgical and hormonal inventions for youth. Republican governors in Florida and Missouri are poised to sign similar laws in the coming days, and bans are also moving forward in six other states, including Louisiana, Nebraska, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina, and Texas.
Several Republican-led states adopted laws or executive orders restricting underage “gender transitions” in previous years.

NASA’s Webb Takes Closest Look Yet at Mysterious Planet
|
|
A science team gains new insight into the atmosphere of a “mini-Neptune,” a class of planet common in the galaxy but about which little is known.
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has observed a distant planet outside our solar system – and unlike anything in it – to reveal what is likely a highly reflective world with a steamy atmosphere. It’s the closest look yet at the mysterious world, a “mini-Neptune” that was largely impenetrable to previous observations.
And while the planet, called GJ 1214 b, is too hot to harbor liquid-water oceans, water in vaporized form still could be a major part of its atmosphere.
“The planet is totally blanketed by some sort of haze or cloud layer,” said Eliza Kempton, a researcher at the University of Maryland and lead author of a new paper, published in Nature, on the planet. “The atmosphere just remained totally hidden from us until this observation.” She noted that, if indeed water-rich, the planet could have been a “water world,” with large amounts of watery and icy material at the time of its formation.

San Antonio Voters Overwhelmingly Reject Measure to Legalize Abortions
|
|
Texans rejected a proposal to legalize aborting unborn babies on the ballot Saturday in San Antonio. The proposed ordinance, Proposition A, came from pro-abortion groups and basically would have legalized the killing of unborn babies in abortions in San Antonio. However, the ballot measure failed by a huge margin Saturday with 72 percent of voters opposed, according to the Texas Tribune. Amy O’Donnell, communications director at Texas Alliance for Life, celebrated the victory after her organization spent months working to defeat the proposal. “We are tremendously pleased to see that San Antonio voters have defeated Prop A so decisively,” O’Donnell said. “Prop A would have been tragic for unborn children and victims of trafficking who would have been left without the protection from abortion they deserve by San Antonio police.”
Texas law protects unborn babies by banning elective abortions and creates penalties for abortionists who violate the law. In February, however, abortion activists collected enough signatures to place Proposition A on the San Antonio ballot for the May 6 election. The proposed ordinance attempted to defy state pro-life laws by prohibiting police from investigating or making arrests for illegal abortions. It allowed exceptions if the abortion was forced or coerced, or if there was criminal negligence involving the health of the pregnant mother. Despite these factors and claims by abortion activists that most Americans support abortion on demand, the ballot measure failed. O’Donnell at Texas Alliance for Life said the defeat sends a strong message that Texans support life. “Today, the will of San Antonio voters prevailed. And the will of voters across the state — who spoke through their state elected officials when Texas enacted protective laws like the Human Life Protection Act — has been affirmed,” she said.

- Father, we REJOICE in this great news! Bless the citizens of Texas who are standing boldly for the unborn. We ask that You would protect the final outcome of this critical vote and pour a double-portion of FAVOR over San Antonio and the State of Texas for honoring babies in the womb! In Jesus mighty name we pray-Amen
- "Instead of shame there shall be a double portion; instead of dishonor they shall rejoice in their lot; therefore in their land they shall possess a double portion; they shall have everlasting joy." (Isaiah 61:7)

"We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed— always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body." (2 Corinthians 4:8)
