  • What happens when former industry heads are allowed to head up a regulatory agency?

    We get regulations that put corporations ahead of the people!
    Corporations First instead of Americans First!

    "Last week, in a highly unusual move, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) embraced that approach in announcing that it is revising an assessment of the health dangers posed by formaldehyde, a widespread pollutant that causes far more cancer than any other chemical in the air. Working on that effort were two of those former industry insiders, who are now top EPA officials."

  • It has been said that one objective of socialism and communism is to eliminate private charities and one way of doing so by way of regulations so excessive and burdensome, that private charities would be unable to operate.

    Among the states to be the most hostile in their policies to private charities were, shockingly and disappointingly, Mississippi and Florida. Among the most friendly to charities was surprisingly Delaware.

  • Believer, how do you respond to sin? Not that of others, but your own? Are you afflicted deeply with sorrow? Or are you more like the Pharisees, making a show of your repentance while remaining unchanged?

    The “religious” among us would, as did many in Scripture, rend their garments when confronted with sin or injustice. Yet this outward act was matched by neither inward grief nor change. This is not what God desires.

    God wants people with a changed heart, people mournful of misdoings, not those who would signal misery on the outside while remaining unchanged. For God says through the prophet, “rend your heart and not your garments” (Joel 2:13). God wants a people who are broken by sin, not who wallow in it.

    And when we truly repent, if we confess our sins to Him, He is faithful and just, and will forgive us our sins, and will cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 Jn. 1:9).

    Brethren, examine your heart today. Are you truly repentant? Do you despise sin as He does? Or do you rather justify yourself, making an outward show of seeking forgiveness, but having your heart untouched?

    ——————
    Spurgeon’s Morning and Evening Devotions

    Morning, December 18

    "Rend your heart, and not your garments." Joel 2:13

    Garment-rendering and other outward signs of religious emotion, are easily manifested and are frequently hypocritical"; but to feel true repentance is far more difficult, and consequently far less common. Men will attend to the most multiplied and minute ceremonial regulations- for such things are pleasing to the flesh- but true religion is too humbling, too heart-searching, too thorough for the tastes of the carnal men; they prefer something more ostentatious, flimsy, and worldly. Outward observances are temporarily comfortable"; eye and ear are pleased; self-conceit is fed, and self-righteousness is puffed up: but they are ultimately delusive, for in the article of death, and at the day of judgment, the soul needs something more substantial than ceremonies and rituals to lean upon. Apart from vital godliness all religion is utterly vain; offered without a sincere heart, every form of worship is a solemn sham and an impudent mockery of the majesty of heaven.

    HEART-RENDING is divinely wrought and solemnly felt. It is a secret grief which is personally experienced, not in mere form, but as a deep, soul-moving work of the Holy Spirit upon the inmost heart of each believer. It is not a matter to be merely talked of and believed in, but keenly and sensitively felt in every living child of the living God. It is powerfully humiliating, and completely sin-purging; but then it is sweetly preparative for those gracious consolations which proud unhumbled spirits are unable to receive; and it is distinctly discriminating, for it belongs to the elect of God, and to them alone.
    The text commands us to rend our hearts, but they are naturally hard as marble: how, then, can this be done? We must take them to Calvary: a dying Saviour's voice rent the rocks once, and it is as powerful now. O blessed Spirit, let us hear the death-cries of Jesus, and our hearts shall be rent even as men rend their vestures in the day of lamentation.

    Remember the line they used - "If we can save but one child ..."?

    A deliberate lie that leads to death should be rightly called murder and be charged as such.

    "Regulatory Implications

    Starting with Paragraph #2 of the letter:



    Prior to joining the US FDA, the FDA Commissioner closely followed reports of vaccine-induced myocarditis. Unlike the COVID virus, which has a steep age gradient-- being at least 1000 times more likely to kill an 80 year old than an 8 year old-- myocarditis appeared to have the opposite pattern. Young, healthy boys and men-- those least likely to experience bad covid outcomes-- bore the greatest risk. The risk was as high as ~200-330 per million doses given in the highest risk demographic groups. Notably, the US FDA and CDC were not the first to recognize the safety signal-- instead the Israelis were-- and worse in May of 2021, then CDC director Rochelle Walensky stated, “We have not seen a signal and we’ve actually looked intentionally for the signal in the over 200 million doses we’ve given,” Many felt this statement was dishonest and manipulative.



    § Prasad is not referencing a specific regulated product, but rather seems to refer to the general class of COVID vaccine products. Personally, I object to and disagree with this approach. Each product is unique, and should be addressed as such. General statements about a class of products (“COVID vaccines”) are not appropriate from a regulatory science perspective. I advocate adopting this position at both FDA and CDC.



    § Prasad is describing an official CBER position that the risk of myocarditis post administration of these product is at least 200-330/million doses (2-3.3/ ten thousand) in this highest risk cohort. Nuance here being doses. That means for a patient receiving the initial vaccine series (two doses), there is a risk of 4-6.6 myocarditis events/ten thousand vaccinees (0.04 to 0.066%). For comparison, current official COVID case rates of death in children (CFR) are in the range of 0.04–0.2%. Also keep in mind that myocarditis is one of many adverse events known to be associated with receipt of these products.



    § Prasad points out that former CDC director Walensky lied and thereby suppressed public disclosure of what was then known to be a myocarditis serious adverse event.



    Putting these facts together, it is horrifying to consider that the US vaccine regulation, including our actions, may have harmed more children than we saved.



    § It is now the official position of the FDA/CBER that USG vaccine policies may have caused more harm than would have been associated with allowing SARS-CoV-2 to infect children without vaccination. This overlooks the additional impact of active FDA and USG suppression of the early treatment options pioneered by front-line physicians all over the world."

  • European Parliament Passes Mandatory Digital ID: The End of Anonymous Internet in the EU

    The European Parliament has adopted the revised eIDAS 2.0 regulation (335–190, 31 abstentions).

    Brussels celebrates it as the world’s most advanced safeguard for children and democracy, a decisive strike against addictive algorithms, deepfakes, disinformation campaigns, foreign election interference, and unchecked Big Tech power.

    What has actually been created is the largest compulsory digital identity regime ever imposed on a democratic population.

    Key provisions now law:

    • Every EU citizen and resident must carry a state-issued Digital Identity Wallet to access social media, video streaming, messaging apps, cloud storage, and all major online platforms.

    • Identity must be re-verified every 90 days; failure results in automatic suspension.

    • Children under 13 are fully banned from these services; users aged 13–17 require recurring parental consent.

    • Platforms must eliminate addictive design features, gambling mechanics, deepfakes, and AI companionship services considered harmful to minors.

    • Violations carry fines up to 7 % of global turnover, personal criminal liability for executives, and potential expulsion from the EU market.

    The same framework is explicitly designed for seamless integration with the upcoming Digital Euro CBDC and contains provisions for rapid content removal during declared crises.

    Child safety and countering disinformation are serious issues, but abolishing online anonymity for 450 million people is a disproportionate response.

    Once this infrastructure exists, the list of new threats it can address will grow quickly: hate speech, tax evasion, copyright infringement, unauthorized political organizing, climate denial, vaccine hesitancy, financial transactions outside approved channels, and any future emergency deemed serious enough to justify further restrictions.

    Implementation begins in 2026, with full enforcement by 2027–2028.

  • Our God is able to do far more than we ask or imagine (Eph. 3:20). So then, brethren, do we not come before Him with our every need? While Jesus walked the earth, the infirm, the afflicted, the weak all came to Him seeking the solution to their woes.

    We just need to remember, as Jesus taught us to pray, "Your will be done" (Mt. 6:10) and in the garden in His own prayer said the same (Mt. 26:42). Even the leper, when He approached the Lord in Mark 1:40 fell before Him and said, "if You are willing..."

    He will hear and answer our prayers, when they are according to His will: "This is the confidence which we have before Him, that, if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests which we have asked from Him: (1 Jn. 5:14-15).

    Most importantly, He grants us cleansing, not from illness (though He can grant that as well), but from sin, from spiritual sickness. As He tells us in 1 Pet. 2:24-25, "He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, so that we might die to sin and live to righteousness; for by His wounds you were healed. For you were continually straying like sheep, but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Guardian of your souls."

    He died to provide our spiritual healing, so that we might "die to sin and live to righteousness." Like sheep we had gone astray (Isa. 53:6; 1 Pet. 2:25), but the Good Shepherd has gathered us back to Himself.

    Brethren, we are saved because it was His will. Let us now conform ourselves further to His will through prayer and supplication.

    Spurgeon's Morning and Evening Devotions

    Morning, September 4

    "I will; be thou clean." Mark 1:41

    Primeval darkness heard the Almighty fiat, "light be," and straightway light was, and the word of the Lord Jesus is equal in majesty to that ancient word of power. Redemption like Creation has its word of might. Jesus speaks and it is done. Leprosy yielded to no human remedies, but it fled at once at the Lord's "I will." The disease exhibited no hopeful signs or tokens of recovery, nature contributed nothing to its own healing, but the unaided word effected the entire work on the spot and for ever. The sinner is in a plight more miserable than the leper; let him imitate his example and go to Jesus, "beseeching Him and kneeling down to Him." Let him exercise what little faith he has, even though it should go no further than "Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean"; and there need be no doubt as to the result of the application. Jesus heals all who come, and casts out none. In reading the narrative in which our morning's text occurs, it is worthy of devout notice that Jesus touched the leper. This unclean person had broken through the regulations of the ceremonial law and pressed into the house, but Jesus so far from chiding him broke through the law Himself in order to meet him. He made an interchange with the leper, for while He cleansed him, He contracted by that touch a Levitical defilement. Even so Jesus Christ was made sin for us, although in Himself He knew no sin, that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him. O that poor sinners would go to Jesus, believing in the power of His blessed substitutionary work, and they would soon learn the power of His gracious touch. That hand which multiplied the loaves, which saved sinking Peter, which upholds afflicted saints, which crowns believers, that same hand will touch every seeking sinner, and in a moment make him clean. The love of Jesus is the source of salvation. He loves, He looks, He touches us, WE LIVE.

  • Christian, are you chasing miracles? Do you seek signs? Will you be satisfied if you never see or experience a miracle? Or can you find peace just in knowing Jesus and rest in your faith?

    There were others who sought after signs while Jesus walked among them. He had words for them that weren't pleasant. They wanted the spectacle, but not the One bringing it. Even had they seen, they wouldn't believe.

    Oh believer, do not spend your time running after signs and wonders. Even false Christs and false prophets will produce these (Mt. 24:24). Instead, seek the Lord Himself, and remember, "Jesus said to him, 'Because you have seen Me, have you believed? Blessed are they who did not see, and yet believed.'" (Jn. 20:29)

    Spurgeon's Morning and Evening Devotions

    Evening, September 2

    "Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe." John 4:48

    A craving after marvels was a symptom of the sickly state of men's minds in our Lord's day; they refused solid nourishment, and pined after mere wonder. The gospel which they so greatly needed they would not have; the miracles which Jesus did not always choose to give they eagerly demanded. Many nowadays must see signs and wonders, or they will not believe. Some have said in their heart, "I must feel deep horror of soul, or I never will believe in Jesus." But what if you never should feel it, as probably you never may? Will you go to hell out of spite against God, because He will not treat you like another? One has said to himself, "If I had a dream, or if I could feel a sudden shock of I know not what, then I would believe." Thus you undeserving mortals dream that my Lord is to be dictated to by you! You are beggars at His gate, asking for mercy, and you must needs draw up rules and regulations as to how He shall give that mercy. Think you that He will submit to this? My Master is of a generous spirit, but He has a right royal heart, He spurns all dictation, and maintains His sovereignty of action. Why, dear reader, if such be your case, do you crave for signs and wonders? Is not the gospel its own sign and wonder? Is not this a miracle of miracles, that "God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him might not perish"? Surely that precious word, "Whosoever will, let him come and take the water of life freely" and that solemn promise, "Him that cometh unto Me, I will in no wise cast out," are better than signs and wonders! A truthful Saviour ought to be believed. He is truth itself. Why will you ask proof of the veracity of One who cannot lie? The devils themselves declared Him to be the Son of God; will you mistrust Him?
    Christian, are you chasing miracles? Do you seek signs? Will you be satisfied if you never see or experience a miracle? Or can you find peace just in knowing Jesus and rest in your faith? There were others who sought after signs while Jesus walked among them. He had words for them that weren't pleasant. They wanted the spectacle, but not the One bringing it. Even had they seen, they wouldn't believe. Oh believer, do not spend your time running after signs and wonders. Even false Christs and false prophets will produce these (Mt. 24:24). Instead, seek the Lord Himself, and remember, "Jesus said to him, 'Because you have seen Me, have you believed? Blessed are they who did not see, and yet believed.'" (Jn. 20:29) ------------- Spurgeon's Morning and Evening Devotions Evening, September 2 "Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe." John 4:48 A craving after marvels was a symptom of the sickly state of men's minds in our Lord's day; they refused solid nourishment, and pined after mere wonder. The gospel which they so greatly needed they would not have; the miracles which Jesus did not always choose to give they eagerly demanded. Many nowadays must see signs and wonders, or they will not believe. Some have said in their heart, "I must feel deep horror of soul, or I never will believe in Jesus." But what if you never should feel it, as probably you never may? Will you go to hell out of spite against God, because He will not treat you like another? One has said to himself, "If I had a dream, or if I could feel a sudden shock of I know not what, then I would believe." Thus you undeserving mortals dream that my Lord is to be dictated to by you! You are beggars at His gate, asking for mercy, and you must needs draw up rules and regulations as to how He shall give that mercy. Think you that He will submit to this? My Master is of a generous spirit, but He has a right royal heart, He spurns all dictation, and maintains His sovereignty of action. Why, dear reader, if such be your case, do you crave for signs and wonders? Is not the gospel its own sign and wonder? Is not this a miracle of miracles, that "God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him might not perish"? Surely that precious word, "Whosoever will, let him come and take the water of life freely" and that solemn promise, "Him that cometh unto Me, I will in no wise cast out," are better than signs and wonders! A truthful Saviour ought to be believed. He is truth itself. Why will you ask proof of the veracity of One who cannot lie? The devils themselves declared Him to be the Son of God; will you mistrust Him?

  • For anyone who thinks the NFA was ever about anything other than tax and control (not safety), directly from the ATF's own website:

    "While the NFA was enacted by Congress as an exercise of its authority to tax, the NFA had an underlying purpose unrelated to revenue collection. As the legislative history of the law discloses, its underlying purpose was to curtail, if not prohibit, transactions in NFA firearms. Congress found these firearms to pose a significant crime problem because of their frequent use in crime, particularly the gangland crimes of that era such as the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre. The $200 making and transfer taxes on most NFA firearms were considered quite severe and adequate to carry out Congress’ purpose to discourage or eliminate transactions in these firearms. The $200 tax has not changed since 1934." - https://atf.gov/rules-and-regulations/laws-alcohol-tobacco-firearms-and-explosives/national-firearms-act

    As for the "underlying purpose," yes, it was an attempt at prohibition, just like the prohibition of alcohol. It was NOT about safety, nor, as is stated there, about "crime," because in 1934, during the great depression, when the NFA was enacted, the only people who could afford a $200 tax stamp were the criminals the law was allegedly aimed at stopping. No, just as with government today, this was not about safety or crime - it was about control (making firearms and accessories too expensive for most to purchase) and government getting its cut.

    National Firearms Act | Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives
    The NFA was originally enacted in 1934. Similar to the current NFA, the original Act imposed a tax on the making and transfer of firearms defined by the Act, as well as a special (occupational) tax on persons and entities engaged in the business of importing, manufacturing, and dealing in NFA firearms. The law also required the registration of all NFA firearms with the

    Right after the Swearing-In Ceremony yesterday, Donald Trump went over to the Capital One Arena that was at full-capacity (20k+ people) and signed around 200 game-changing Executive Orders, live, in front of his supporters.
    These EOs include:

    1. Granting a full pardon to 1,500 J6 prisoners!
    2. Withdrawing from the Paris Climate Agreement, saving over a trillion dollars.
    3. Sending a letter to the United Nations, to formally announce the US withdrawal from the World Health Organization (WHO).
    4. Restoring Freedom of Speech and preventing government censorship of Free Speech.
    5. Ending the Weaponization of Government against political adversaries of the previous administration.
    6. Implementing a regulatory freeze, to halt new regulations, until full control of the Government is achieved.
    7. Freezing federal hiring, with exceptions for the military and other specified categories.
    8. Requiring all Federal Workers to return to full-time, in-person work, immediately.
    9. Directing every Federal Department and Agency to address the ongoing cost-of-living crisis.
    10. Rescinding 78 Biden-era executive actions, orders, and memorandum.
    Additional Day-One promises from Donald Trump,s new Secretary of Homeland Security (DHS), Kristi Noem – some of which have already gone into effect – include:
    - Open the books on the Secret Service and Trump assassination attempts
    - Reinstate Remain-in-Mexico
    - End CBP One App immediately (now, deleted)
    - End CHNV program (tax payer funded flights for illegals)
