Shame! Pelosi’s Effort to Hoodwink Christians

Today Nancy Pelosi illustrated just how low the democrats will go to try hoodwink middle-of-the-road Christian voters.

Regarding impeachment, she said her party is going forward “with a heavy heart” and they are being “very prayerful” in the process.

Shame on her!

This is the same democratic party that necessitates abortion on demand, commends non-Biblical marriage, and has effectively taken prayer out of the public schools.

The Planned Takeover of the Energy Grid, and YOUR Home

About the proposed takeover of PG&E:
 
I’m currently working on a book proposal that unmasks many of the radical environmentalists’ plans for America. One of those undertakings they’ve been plotting for years is the government takeover of the power grid.
 
As I describe in my former books, the federal ENERGY STAR regulations and the highly esteemed SMART technology are already in place to theoretically remotely control the major appliances in our homes (as well as many of the smaller electrically dependent devices like televisions).
 
Once the bureaucrats in Sacramento for example get hold of of PG&E’s reigns, during our common summer power shortages they will literally have the capability to turn-off items in your home that they believe are drawing too much electricity.
 
And guess what? The rank and file will rollover and accept it, just like they did recently during the power shutoffs, which occurred in the name of preventing forest fires (listen to podcast #46 at my website for more on that).
 
Again, this is all part of a longterm scheme concocted in the 1980s to eventually better control the masses.
 
Before some green liberals comment below on how PG&E is a for-profit monopoly, let me remind you that PG&E’s rates are 100% regulated by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). As we’ve seen with other government takeovers, the rates will go even higher and the quality of service will decline when the bureaucrats have complete control.
 
I’ll hang-up on myself…

A Film You Must See: Harriet

I HIGHLY recommend this film!

It’s extremely well produced, the acting is fantastic, it’s historically accurate and therefore, politically incorrect—which I always appreciate.

Harriet Tubman was born into this world in 1820, as a slave named Araminta (aka, “Minty”) in Dorchester county, Maryland. In 1849, knowing she was about to be sold and therefore separated from her family, she narrowly escaped from her “owners” and made it 100 miles to freedom in Pennsylvania.

Despite strong advice to the contrary, the following year she made her way back to Maryland to lead her sister and two children to freedom. She would eventually risk her own life 18 more times as she led scores of former slaves to freedom via the Underground Railroad, an elaborate secret network of safe houses organized for that purpose.

By her extraordinary courage, ingenuity, persistence, and iron discipline, Harriet became the railroad’s most famous “conductor,” as such people were referred to, and was widely known as the “Moses of her people.”

She never lost a fugitive slave that she was leading to freedom.

One dramatic moment of the film shows Harriet leading a battalion of over 150 black soldiers during the Civil War.  It’s all true.  In the depicted raid more than 750 enslaved people in South Carolina were liberated.

Harriet Tubman was one tough lady.

Here’s what I especially appreciate about the film: it doesn’t shy away from the good, the bad, and the ugly in an effort to be politically correct.

Obviously, the film shows us the stereotypical, ignorant, brutal, white slaveholders. But it also sheds a light on the many white people who risked their own lives (and their fortunes) to aid in the liberation of the blacks held in bondage.

Likewise, the film also exposes the fact that there were free blacks who were in cahoots with the slave owners and negotiated bounties to hunt down escaped slaves.

What the film misses: Harriet Tubman was an authentic follower of Jesus Christ and, as such, had a connection with God that enabled her to “hear” His voice (trust me—many real-deal Christians have had this experience). While the script does acknowledge Harriet receiving instructions from God, in the film those divine orders seem to come from “spells” that overcome her like hypnotic voodoo trances.  Yes, she did apparently have a mild form of epilepsy (from severe head trauma), but she also really did hear that magnificent, mysterious, still, strong voice of God.

I might add, many (most?) of the white people who aided the effort of the Underground Railroad were also devout Christians, and this isn’t specifically highlighted either.

Those few criticisms aside, this is a wonderfully produced film that everyone should see (not suitable for kids—best for mature teenagers and upward).

Kudos to director Kasi Lemmons, who wrote the screenplay with Gregory Allen Howard.

 

 

 

I may be (temporarily) away from the radio, but still have my podcast!

In this edition of Hidden Headlines I investigate the recent, awful, California wildfires and the relentless accusations that our energy provider in Northern California, Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) is to blame.

As you have seen from my recent blog posts, the real culprit in all of this are the radical environmentalists who, deep down in their dirty little green hearts, believe humankind is the planet’s invasive species.

Proof: how the environmentalists are AGAINST trimming trees near power lines

In my last post I noted that the environmental rules and regulations that PG&E has to follow when pruning trees and vegetation from electrical transmission lines mandate a four-foot clearance on each side of a line.

As I mentioned in the post (California Fires: DO NOT blame Climate Change or PG&E), the old regs used to require a ten-foot clearance.

Just found this little nugget from the Sierra Club website, which leans toward proving my point that the environmentalists do not want proper trimming, pruning, thinning, or clearing of our forests.  The article in question actually supports my theory that the environmentalists perceive  humankind as an invasive species.

Here’s the a portion of the article, by Amy Murre of  Stop Clearcutting California (not sure when it was published):

Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) is planning to clear cut wide swaths of trees surrounding power lines in an aggressive program that claims to address wildfire hazards as a part of their Fire Safety Zone work.

Though some vegetation trimming and line clearances are required by law, these new cutting plans far exceed those requirements. As PG&E itself states, “The California Public Utilities Commission requires PG&E maintain at least a 4-foot clearance between vegetation and power lines in high fire-threat areas year-round to help ensure electric reliability and public safety.” Under their new program, PG&E wants to enlist property owner consent to voluntarily remove all vegetation to a distance of 15 feet from each side of the power lines in the affected zones, and extend the clearing down to one foot above the ground.

PG&E owns more than 100,000 miles of transmission lines, which it regularly inspects and maintains by cutting and trimming trees. With the planned clear cut width of 30 feet, the path of destruction could be considerable.

Take note of this article, because generally when I post these damning propaganda pieces, the environmentalists quickly pull them off the web.  Read it here: https://www.sierraclub.org/california/cnrcc/pge-clearcuts-power-lines
