Friends/ Readers,
I know that I've been 'flooding the airwaves' lately, but this new source of Info/ Intel have really got my attention! Please consider copying the web site/ address LINK so that you can get it delivered to your own PC-- Email address, Home. I don't want to force my stuff on anyone, nor push too hard.
We Christians know where the 'world is going' and so this kind of News only makes us draw closer to Jesus Christ, while unbelievers worry themselves to death and bite their lip in anguish. Yes, horrible death, murder, torture are going on all the time--- as many if most of us sit back and enjoy a great hot meal while watching TV or enjoying the sweet company of our loved ones.
There is certainly a strong, close, kinship between combat
Veterans as we nod to each other when we pass by at church and other public places, and I ask them for their personal email address to that I can share things and help them if I can in my mature age, now retired after working super hard all my life. My Will is made out and I know that I could drop dead or die in my sleep tonight, so I study, read, and draw closer to the Lord -- see the book of James 4: 8.
My wife, Lori, and I attend a friendly church that is farther away than usual but the folks there have a reputation of being so gregarious and outgoing, and the Bible is used all the time, of course. They are sweet country folks and not quite as studious and perhaps 'hardcore KJV Bible users like me,' but I must learn to be more patient and loving... Ha! But I got 'sidetracked' when I was younger, getting sucked into a religious cult-- the JW-cult, 'church of the poisoned mind.' So I feel that I needed to pore into the scriptures more diligently to make sure I know the real Truth. Ounce burned -- twice shy. However, when I check the pew Bible being a NIV at Psalm 83: 18, they have even removed the divine name of God!! That hurts me. Oh well, I just need to realize that some folks need to start at a lower, slower speed than I am accustomed to. Lord, make me more patient, please.
I have truncated the articles down below, but as I said, I just hope that you all can down load the web site address link... and take it from there.
I would also ask that you fine people consider joining my humble blog by becoming a 'follower' so then the timely blog posts go to your email address box automatically.

Illinois officials find 545 noncitizens registered to vote. Tip of the iceberg?

Congress just appropriated record sums of cash in the omnibus bill to fund “election security” for the state ballot systems. Democrat senators like Pat Leahy lauded the bill for “preserving our democracy, and maintaining full faith in our elections.” Yet as Congress worries over foreign interference in our elections, blue states are implementing policies that will ensure foreigners vote in our elections, whose outcomes often hinge on razor-thin margins of victory.
A number of blue states, including Illinois, have adopted policies to automatically register those with valid state driver’s licenses to vote in elections. The threat of noncitizens voting in elections under such a system has always been a clear concern, absent an ironclad system to weed out those with noncitizen driver’s licenses from the registration list. Well, this concern has become reality in Illinois, where the state’s board of elections now admits 545 noncitizens were registered to vote, just among those who self-reported as such by checking the noncitizen box on the driver’s license application.
“For whatever reason that technological programming error did not properly remove the individuals,” secretary of state spokesman Henry Haupt explained, reports WCIA news. “The individuals who are applying for driver’s license were inadvertently pooled into the automatic voter registration.”
But in blue states, with an increased desire to grant not just legal immigrants but illegal immigrants driver’s licenses, coupled with the push for automatic voter registrations, is this really a bug or a feature of the desired outcome? What prudent public official would push for a policy that sweeps up so many non-eligible people to automatically vote and then relies on programming to weed out those who don’t belong? That sure sounds like playing with fire, assuming they really seek to avoid registering noncitizens.
“If states like Illinois and others are foolish enough to install automatic voter registration, we can’t trust them to stress-test their new systems for features like registering noncitizens to vote,” said Logan Churchwell of the Public Interest Legal Foundation, the leading nonprofit group pushing for clean voter rolls. “Automatic voter registration, at its core, minimizes voters to lines of code sloppily swapped between databases. Said databases are too often built by lowest-bidding vendors with little to no understanding of voter registration laws on the shortest of deadlines. If Illinois has any decency, it will issue letters stating that their errors put noncitizens on potential paths to deportation — especially if incumbent politicians sent them mail instructing how to vote.”t
This concern is particularly consequential when it comes to legal immigrants seeking naturalization. Most legal immigrants registered to vote likely never even intended to engage in voter fraud, but this irresponsible system sets them up for potential deportation rather than naturalization. That is why the ACLU, of all organizations, originally voiced concerns over California’s automatic voter registration system. The organization feared it would needlessly ensnare immigrants into committing a felony, making them eligible for deportation. In a state like Illinois, while citizens have a very tough time getting access to voter rolls, political parties and candidates can access them to send out mailers. Thus, some of these noncitizens would actually be getting mailers asking for their vote, further confusing them about American law.
However, it conveniently seems that states with the most pro-illegal immigrant policies are simultaneously promoting same-day voter registration. For example, just days after long lines were seen of illegal aliens registering for driver’s licenses in New York beginning in December, the state Senate passed a law to enact automatic voter registration. This will help get illegal aliens on the voter rolls as well. Almost all of the 15 states that grant licenses to illegal aliens also have automatic voter registration, including Illinois. It’s unclear how many of the noncitizens registered to vote in Illinois were here illegally.
WCIA’s Mark Maxwell reports that the board of elections admitted 19 noncitizens cast actual ballots in the 2018 elections. That might not seem like a meaningful number, but many local races are decided by razor-thin margins. As Maxwell observed, the Macon County sheriff’s race was decided by a single vote. There were reportedly seven noncitizens who voted just in that county alone.
This can happen in larger elections as well. In my home state of Maryland, illegal aliens can get driver’s licenses, and there is also automatic voter registration. The primary deciding the Democrat nominee (who is automatically a shoo-in for the general election) for county executive in Baltimore County, a large county of one million people, was decided by just seven votes in 2018. Shouldn’t we all have the confidence that there is no foreign interference directly counted in our elections? Isn’t noncitizen voting a bigger threat to elections than Russian Twitter bots?
Remember, this is just the tip of the iceberg, because the state only confirmed those noncitizens who self-reported as noncitizens on the forms. It’s an "honor system."How many noncitizens are registered and didn’t come forward or committed fraud? In 2017, Philadelphia City Commissioner Al Schmidt estimated that over 100,000 noncitizens were registered over the past two decades statewide. In 2016, PILF found 1,046 noncitizens registered to vote in eight Virginia counties and that they “cast a total of 186 votes between 2005 and 2015.” We won’t know the extent of this problem until state or federal officials go through DHS immigration data and compare it against voter registrations.
It doesn’t appear that too many of these states are in a rush to find out the true number. After all, the great ideal of “preserving our democracy, and maintaining full faith in our elections” doesn’t seem to apply to the actual people casting the ballots and determining the future of our country.
‘Despite a half century of Stalinist crimes, this “hipster” cachet hovers around the leaders of the Cuban Revolution and persists to this day, and contributes much to socialism’s popularity among the “young and hip” worldwide.
First off, notice the age of the typical half-dead Cuban rafter who washes up on south Florida’s beaches almost daily, often using his last reserves of energy to kiss the sand in gratitude. It’s rare to see one over 30. The Castro brothers and Che Guevara often outdid their Soviet patrons in outlawing and punishing typical Millennial behavior.
While the Rolling Stones were performing for a huge crowd of Polish kids in Warsaw in 1967, for instance, Cuban kids were being herded into forced labor camps for the crime of (clandestinely) listening to rock music, or growing long hair, or wearing blue jeans.
The Cuban regime hailed by current American champions of “hipster” socialism jailed and tortured political prisoners at a higher rate than Stalin did during the Great Terror and murdered more Cubans in its first three years in power than Hitler murdered Germans during its first six.’
