“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.” Theodore Roosevelt, (1858-1919) 26th US President.

The Obama Administration received unprecedented criticism, rebuke, rudeness, and disrespect. Even the Bush Administration garnered a fair share.
But the current Administration, has resort to reprisal and retribution for any difference of opinion less known criticism. He fired the Attorneys General for upholding the law.
He is threaten by anyone who dare hold him to any standard, even to his own words. He calls the media the “real enemy”. Who is being “treasonous”? Who is repudiating our Constitution? Freedom of the press, freedom of speech, the separation of church and state, etc.?
This is a sure fulfillment of prophecy, Babylon is truly falling and become the habitation of every mean and hateful bird.

Saturday February 18th, 2017 at 02:25 PMThe politics, or fairness in this and any situation is not our concern. It is the prophetic significance of what is said and done. Politically, both sides have been unfair, disrespectful, critical and all the rest. That’s not important to us. What is important is how prophecy is playing out. Please don’t forget that. Take your eyes off the politics and put them on the bible and SOP.
