Good News Friday
June 28, 2024
Dear Patriots:
AS IF ON CUE, the entire Drive By Media/Fake News said out loud what we have known for four years: Joe Biden is unfit to be President.
Why, it is almost as if there was a plan.
They have been collectively ignoring and covering up the obvious decline for years. Now, they are pretending to be surprised and panicked by witnessing it live at the debate.
We can only sit back and watch to see what the Democrats do next with their feeble, weak presidential candidate. Here is a possible path the Dems might take.
Meanwhile, President Trump appeared strong, patient and on message.
We encourage you to pray for Biden. It is hard to love people who have such negative political beliefs. But cognitive decline is a horrible disease and our prayers are with him.
Also, pray for President Trump. He is a warrior for all of us and for the country. His path is extremely difficult. Pray for his wisdom and strength to grow deeper.
Thank you, as always, to our growing Subscribers. Your support is very important to us.
Thank you for your encouraging comments.
I thank God for you Sidney. You and Dan Bongino, Tucker Carlson, Steve Bannon are the truth tellers and the reason we have hope. Jesus called you all to be ferocious defenders of our Republic and to fight the egregious evil of the left Biden regime.
Thank you.
D. D.

1- Everyone got this news this week except for the Biden debate team. Biden again hit Trump with the lie during the debate.
It is good when stupid, leftist lies are revealed and the truth is told. We wish the process happened faster.
Left wing fact checker admits Trump never called Charlottesville neo-Nazis ‘very fine people’
QUOTE: The left-leaning fact checking website Snopes acknowledged Saturday that former President Trump never called neo-Nazis “very fine people” during his press conference following the Charlottesville “Unite the Right” rally in 2017.
Critics of Trump have claimed for years that he equated neo-Nazis with counterprotesters following the event.
President Biden was chief among those critics, citing the supposed incident as a main reason for launching his 2020 campaign.
“While Trump did say that there were ‘very fine people on both sides,’ he also specifically noted that he was not talking about neo-Nazis and white supremacists and said they should be ‘condemned totally.’ Therefore, we have rated this claim ‘False,'” Snopes wrote.
The Snopes fact check now aligns with years of arguments from Trump’s camp, who long stated, backed by transcript and video, that his comments were taken out of context. The fact-checker notes that the false claim about Trump’s comments “spread like wildfire” on the left, eventually being cited as a cornerstone of Biden’s election campaign.When Biden released his 2020 campaign announcement video, the first words he said in it were “Charlottesville, Virginia.”
Snopes’ ruling removes key ammunition from Biden’s arsenal just days before he and Trump are scheduled to meet in their first debate this week.
2- Far-left, fire alarm pulling Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) lost reelection to a moderate, pro-Israel challenger George Latimer (D) in the most expensive House Primary race in history. $25 million was spent combined. We like to see the Democrats spend a lot of money on their own Primaries!
Rep. Jamaal Bowman, a vocal Israel critic and 'squad' member, loses primary
QUOTE: Progressive Rep. Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y., suffered a primary defeat Tuesday to a moderate challenger who was backed by pro-Israel groups, NBC News projected, following a bitter and expensive race that exposed the party’s divisions over the war in Gaza.
The race between Bowman and Westchester County Executive George Latimer in New York’s 16th District drew more ad spending — $25 million, according to the ad tracking firm AdImpact — than any other House primary in history. Nearly $15 million of that spending came from the United Democracy Project, a super PAC linked to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, a powerful pro-Israel lobby, which backed Latimer.
With 84% of the vote in as of Wednesday morning, Latimer led Bowman by a wide margin, 58.4% to 41.6%.
Bowman, 48, one of Congress’ fiercest critics of Israel, is the first incumbent Democratic lawmaker to lose a primary this election cycle and the first member of the so-called “squad” of progressive lawmakers of color to be ousted from power since the group formed after the 2018 elections.
Last fall, Bowman pleaded guilty to falsely pulling a fire alarm in a House building in the middle of a vote on a GOP bill to avert a government shutdown. Bowman claimed it was an accident, but Republicans accused him of trying to interrupt official business of the House, and voters repeatedly quizzed him about the fire alarm incident on the campaign trail.
3- It amazes us that so many brave people still step up to try and reverse the current political course through our electoral process.
We are thankful to good people willing to step into the arena.
REVOLT in Indiana as patriots pick medical liberty activist as GOP nominee for lieutenant governor!
QUOTE: At the Indiana GOP state convention in Indianapolis last Saturday, delegates nominated Micah Beckwith — a pastor and citizen activist who was one of the star speakers at rallies for medical liberty in the state, as their candidate for lieutenant governor — rejecting the candidate that Sen. Mike Braun, the nominee for governor, had chosen as his running mate.
In his barnburner speech just before the vote, Beckwith railed against the Republican leadership’s handling of the Covid-19 pandemic, telling delegates that he wrote 4,500 letters for people desperately seeking help getting a religious exemption to their employer’s vaccine mandate so they could keep their jobs and told of a couple he knew who were distraught after their small business was declared non-essential by the governor in 2020, saying over the next year they lost everything, including their business and their home, and that at the end of the year the man then took his own life.
More than 40 activists stood with him on the stage, flanking him as he delivered the speech to the 1800 delegates.
When the votes were finally tallied, Beckwith had 891, compared to 828 for Julie McGuire, the state legislator Braun had picked for his lieutenant governor.
4- Just another step in ending this destructive contagion.
Arkansas Supreme Court eliminates gender neutral option for state IDs
QUOTE: The Arkansas Supreme Court eliminated the option for residents to use a neutral gender identification on their state ID cards Tuesday.
The ruling reinstates a state law that had banned the use of "X" as an option for gender identification. A lower court had blocked the bill earlier this month, arguing it would do harm to transgender residents.
Arkansas Attorney General Tim Griffin, a Republican, praised Tuesday's ruling in a public statement.
"I applaud the Arkansas Supreme Court’s decision staying the circuit court’s unlawful order and allowing the Department of Finance and Administration to bring its identification rules into compliance with state law," he said.
Fewer than half of U.S. states allow "X" as a valid gender on identification forms. With Arkansas' departure, 21 states and Washington, D.C., maintain the policy.
Of Arkansas' 2.6 million active driver's licenses, just 387 had the "X" designation. The state also has 503,000 IDs, of which 167 had the "X" designation.
5- Trump is the rare politico who can actually deliver on efforts to unify the country.
Teamsters President Accepts Trump's Invitation to Speak to Republican Convention
QUOTE: International Brotherhood of Teamsters President Sean O’Brien will speak at the Republican convention next month in Milwaukee.
Former President Trump announced that O'Brien accepted his invitation to speak.
This is the post on Truth Social from Trump:
Sean O’Brien, the General President of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, has accepted my invitation to speak at the RNC Convention in Milwaukee. Our GREAT convention will unify Americans and demonstrate to the nation’s working families they come first. When I am back in the White House, the hardworking Teamsters, and all working Americans, will once again have a country they can afford to live in and be respected around the world. Sean, I look forward to seeing you represent the Teamsters in Milwaukee. Together we can Make America Great Again.
To say that this appearance is a rare occurrence at a Republican convention is an understatement. Many Republicans will have their hair on fire about Trump's move here. What they miss about Trump is that he is all about unity. Yes, really. That may not ring true to many, but it's been his message since 2015 when he entered the presidential race.
6- God has blessed us humans with an abundance of earthly resources.
Huge Rare Earths Discovery is Gamechanger in Americas Trade War with China
QUOTE: At the height of the American war machine’s realization that China controls nearly all of its raw materials, two new developments in Europe now suggest that the West has a fighting chance to secure critical metals for the future: A major discovery in Norway, and a potentially game-changing acquisition in Greenland.
In mid-June, Norwegian mining company Rare Earths Norway unveiled one of the largest deposits of rare earth elements in Europe in the Fen Carbonatite Complex in the country’s south. That discovery followed a vote in Norwegian parliament that paved the way for offshore, deep-sea mining of rare minerals in the country’s remote northern waters, Fortune magazine reported, making this the first country in Europe to allow such seabed mining activities.
At the same time, Critical Metals Corp announced an acquisition deal for what it believes is the largest critical metals deposit in the world, in Greenland.
On June 10, Critical Metals Corp signed an agreement to acquire a controlling interest in Greenland’s Tanbreez project, which it says is the largest rare earth deposit in the world. Once operational, CRML expects it to supply Europe and North America. And on June 18 the company announced it had completed its initial investment for the Tanbreez acquisition, lending more confidence to the deal and further de-risking the transaction, according to a company press release.
7- We admit to being a little puzzled by this move in very blue states, but think it is always good to get children away from phones for a few hours a day.
New York to ban phones in city’s classrooms amid fears for ‘fully addicted’ children’s mental health
QUOTE: Schools in New York City are planning to ban the use of mobile phones amid concerns over children’s mental health.
America’s largest schools system announced the move on Wednesday following a detailed consultation with medical professionals.
“Our kids are fully addicted to these phones, we’ve got to do something about it,” said David Banks, New York City schools chancellor, in an interview with broadcaster NY1.
He said the new rules, which will be announced in full next month, will affect around 915,000 students.
In a bid to ease fears of parents being unable to contact their children, Mr Banks said the new rules would allow devices in school grounds but their use would not be permitted during school hours.
In California, Gavin Newsom, the Democrat governor, last week promised to limit the use of smartphones during the school day.
The school board in Los Angeles - the second biggest school district in the country behind New York city - also recently approved restrictions that will go into effect in January.
Ron DeSantis, the Republican governor of Florida, signed a similar measure into law last year.
