Dear Friends,

Here are a few articles for your consideration.

Thanks.

And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; (2 Corinthians 5:18)

The Declaration of Independence Paragraph 2A

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and pursuit of happiness—That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.

  1. Trump recently met with former Hawaii Congresswoman – and U.S. Army Reserve member – Tulsi Gabbard about how to structure the Pentagon in a second Trump administration.

“The talks with Gabbard — who has staked out a role as an outspoken critic of aid to Ukraine and U.S. military interventions overseas — are part of a broader conversation about how Trump would manage the Pentagon differently if voters award him a second term. Trump has repeatedly told advisers and donors in recent months that one of his biggest mistakes was his personnel choices at the Pentagon, where he says he was stymied by officials with diverging opinions,” The Washington Post reported.

            Trump meeting with Gabbard also raises the possibility of putting Gabbard on the ticket as her status as a female veteran could help Trump appeal to suburban swing voters.

            The fact that Trump is meeting with ideologically aligned allies like Tulsi Gabbard who share his America First agenda to draw up a gameplan to turn the MAGA policies into reality should reassure Americans that Trump’s new administration won’t look or function anything like his first.

  1. Can we ever end our use of fossil fuels?  Not on the short term.  The question is not so much can we, but why should we?  There is no climate emergency, and true science makes it clear that carbon dioxide and fossil fuels are beneficial so why stop using them?   Having fossil fuels and not using them is like having a car with a full gas tank, but still insisting on pushing the car to avoid pollution.  Wind and solar will never fill the need.  Here in North Idaho we have months of cloudy weather, and the wind often does not blow when it gets real cold.  You cannot build a battery that large, and batteries have a fairly short life.  The solution is to recognize that this is not a climate emergency, but a matter of control.  They want to control how we live and this seems the easiest way at it; control the climate.
