Kevin McCarthy as Speaker of the House Proves DC Cannot Be Fixed From Within
A brief rant.
DC is irreparable.
Kevin McCarthy as de facto leader of the GOP is all the evidence necessary to realize the Uniparty Swamp is in complete political control. Pockets of opposition that occasionally pop up get burnt and discarded faster than a Hunter Biden crack pipe.
The GOP is the marginally-less-horrible wing of the Uniparty Swamp. This political cabal owns DC, or to be more accurate, they manage DC and do whatever they're told when they get calls from Beijing, Davos, or Hell.
American people have absolutely zero influence over DC today.
The election system is completely corrupted. Legislation is bloated to thousands of pages so politicians can "earn" their payoffs from special interest groups by sneaking in the taxpayer-funded pork. The bureaucratic state is a cesspool.
The McCarthy-run GOP bathes in all this.
Only God can save this nation.
I would never presume to know God's will, but I would not be shocked if we were annihilated over the unambiguous evil that has been embraced by our leaders in their self-serving pursuits.
Nobody wants to hear this but it's what we deserve.
Few in DC deserve our support and even fewer deserve our respect. Unless we can somehow break free from the system, we will always be slaves to it. The system is worse than corrupt. It's irreparably broken. And that's the point. They WANT it broken to cover up their ineptitude.
I don't see a path forward for the United States unless God intervenes.
You've said it all, JD. The hard truth is that the system is beyond repair.
This is my first time ever commenting on anyone's platform, so I'll try to make as gently a splash as possible
I was alerted in mid January 2020 by a friend born in Jamaica to watched this virus in China because many of her countrymen working there were at that time stranded in China bc their home nation, Jamaica would not allow them re-entry back into the country. Immediately, my ears were peeked bc it had biblical PLAGUE (not pandemic) written all over it. (man-made or not)
Fast forwarding through all the malarky for the past 3 years that has and is transpiring. I continue to be saddened and amazed at the government, the people and the leaders that come from the people. I can't think of the person that said this but I somewhat quote/paraphrase them by repeating, "our government elected officials, corporate and other leaders are a direct reflection of the values of the people of that nation." In other words, stop complaining - THEY are YOU! Until God's people of this nation repent of ALL of their sins, permanently quit doing those sins, humbly seek God's face for real relationship and revival with Him, then this nation will continue to sink - there will NEVER be a point of return.
COVID-19 to me represented the last of the last days playing out: spiritual wickedness in high places purposefully planning to contaminate and kill an entire planet of God's created beings; Injecting chimera driven solution into just about an entire population of people in order to purposefully change how the human genome and immune system operate.
Is anybody reading the Bible? Are the dots connecting at all? Spiritual wickedness in high placed did this once before in Noah's day! They changed the DNA of man. REMEMBER: The Watchers (fallen angels) impregnated women who gave birth to GIANTS. That was nothing but EVIL tinkering with and changing human DNA. PLEASE wake up everyone! It's happening right before our eyes, AGAIN!
Stop being distracted by the swamp, video games, News, Social Media, and other hedonistic folly. Get "YOUR" house in order!! Has "everyone" accepted Christ in your immediate family? How about your extended family? If so, what about your social circle? You know a BIG recession is just around the corner. Have you stored up all you can? Didn't Joseph in Egypt teach us to store up for coming bad days? Have you helped others around you do the same? Watch and pray people! In the end we will all kneel and confess Jesus is Lord. In the meantime, focus on all that really matters.
Though the government is a reflection of the kingdom of God, the Word teaches us that this world system belongs to Satan. So, if the players in the government are acting like their boss - maybe, just maybe that's the way it was designed to be. The only boss a believer in Jesus has is God himself. All else with this governmental system is useless fodder! We must all see whose behind all ungodliness... "SATAN!" Address evil issues from that perspective and you will see that you will begin to target your anger at the right entity, Satan not those used and inhabited by him. Read the Word, Pray and get up rebuking that evil in your life and your world. Walk the walk and talk the talk. That's when the generations will put forth righteous fruit to vote into office. LOL, but that will never happen so chill with the name calling and bickering. Focus on purifying your heart and your life and influencing those around you to do the same.
