ISRAEL, FOREVER

 

The Israel of God, is Forever.


So this is what the Sovereign LORD says:

See, I lay a Stone in Zion, a tested Stone,

A Precious Cornerstone for a Sure Foundation;

The One who relies on it

Will never be Stricken with Panic.”

(Isaiah 28:16, NIV)


As Christ Jesus is God’s Corner Stone,

Forever,

So God’s Word to Israel,

That the Land He gave to her,

Is her’s Forever.


All who try to Divide

Or Take Over this Land

Have the Curse of God upon them.


Those who try to Take Over,

Or Divided the Land of Israel

Will be Stricken with Panic.

GOD ALMIGHTY GAVE ISRAEL HER LAND, NEVER TO BE DIVIDED

 Passover's gift: The promised and undivided land

Billions of the world's people still do not know the meaning of the towering festival of freedom and liberty known as Passover; a festival of spring, recognizing an event that has blessed the world for well over 3,300 years.

The festival begins on the evening of April 22nd of this year and falls always on the 15th day of the Jewish month of Nissan

Jews and Christians know the biblical story of the Exodus and of the salvation of the Jewish people from centuries of slavery under the Egyptian pharaohs and the subsequent creation and deliverance of an entire nation.

Such a seminal event in humanity's history became the foundation for freedom and liberty – created many centuries before democracy was first enunciated by Greek philosophers who nevertheless lived within a polytheistic society.

Many people know in varying degrees the Passover story and the birth of the Jewish people and of their undying faith in the One and Only God; invisible and indivisible. 

Judaism has given the world monotheism in its purest and most undiluted nature. 

The Unity of God is what Jews have defended against all who attempted to suggest a plurality: even to enduring martyrdom as they uttered with their dying breath the towering prayer, the Shema, which is the central place in Jewish religious thought and best understood by those knowing Hebrew grammar: "Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One."

And other words from Deuteronomy:

"The Lord, He is God, in heaven above and upon the earth beneath; there is none else."

Or from Isaiah: "Besides Me, there is no God. Turn to me and you are saved in all ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is none else."

The long-suffering Jews under Egyptian bondage were led to freedom by the Jewish prophet, Moses, who brought them to their own very special and promised land: The Land of Israel.

Moses spoke with God in Sinai and brought a wondrous divine gift to the Jewish people and through them to all humanity – the Decalogue; the Ten Commandments, and the basis of today's laws of Judeo-Christian civilization and jurisprudence. 

These ten brief commandments – a mere 120 Hebrew words – are written on the walls of synagogues and in many churches as well as in secular sites.

As in all Jewish practice, Moses was never deified. 

He was shown in the Torah, the first five books of the Bible, as a man: nothing else. 

Indeed, in order not to deify him or exalt him over others he is shown in the Holy Bible with human failings and his burial place remains unknown. 

He sought the mountain top and beheld the Promised Land of Israel yet was never to enter.

Unlike in so many other nations, Moses' sons and descendants did not set up a dynasty, and in fact are not mentioned in Scripture after his death (except for a possible coded reference to a grandson in Judges 18:30). 

In fact, in the Torah (the first five books of the Bible) Moses is described merely as "the humblest and meekest of all human beings." 

For in Judaism, only God is divine and beside Him there is none other.

Passover (Pesach in Hebrew) is the first of the Jewish holidays and festivals, coinciding with the coming of the spring in the Jewish people's ancestral, Biblical and native land: 

the land given by God in an everlasting Covenant to the Jewish people. 

It is the land extending from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea – a mere 40 miles in width known for millennia by its Biblical names of Judea and Samaria.

Sadly, a mostly hostile world prefers to deny its Biblical and Jewish patrimony by renaming it the West Bank, the name given to it by the Jordanian Muslim Arab invaders who drove out its Jewish inhabitants and illegally occupied the territory for a mere 19 years from 1948 until it was liberated by Israel during its defensive June 1967 Six Day War. 

Indeed, part of the Covenanted land also includes Gilead (the Biblical and ancestral possession of the tribes of Manasseh, Gad and Reuben) which is east of the river Jordan in the present day British created Arab state of Jordan.

But in the very heartland of the Jewish ancestral homeland stretching from the river to the sea, Arabs who call themselves Palestinians occupy territory with the sole intention of coming against the Jewish homeland and destroying it. 

In doing so they challenge the very promises of God in Scripture;

(God to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob):

    "Unto thy seed have I given this land...I will give to thee and to thy seed after thee all the land of Canaan for an everlasting possession"; (God to Isaac):

    "Unto thee and unto thy seed will I give all these lands... "; (God to Jacob):

    "The land which I gave unto Abraham and Isaac, to thee I will give it, and to thy seed after thee..."; (God to Moses):

    "I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them...unto a good land and large, a land flowing with milk and honey...";

    "Be strong and courageous, for it is you who will cause this people to inherit the land that I have sworn to their fathers to give them." (God to Joshua):

The Passover festival precedes two other harvest festivals based upon the agricultural cycles of ancient and modern Israel. 

Next comes Shavuot, Pentecost, which records and commemorates the giving to Moses the Ten Commandments followed by Succot, which is known as Tabernacles. 

Mankind was, and is, blessed through the Passover for it is a veritable gift to those who accept its divine message and perform the ritual meal, the Seder, recording the Exodus story.

But there is an evil in men's hearts, and it is a profound evil, for those who hate and envy this Jewish gift to humanity and its message of freedom, liberty and foundational democracy. 

They have chosen since time immemorial to destroy all that it stands for and persecute those – the Jews – who received it from God and who have shared it with all humanity.

Let me recount what Mary Antin wrote in 1911 about the horrors inflicted upon the Jews in Russia as they celebrated the festival of liberty in the Exodus story during the festive Seder meal. 

Ms. Antin wrote of what routinely took place at Passover – often coinciding with Easter – and of how Russian neighbors reminded the Jews that for them it was another Egypt:

    "... in Russian cities and even more in country districts, where Jewish families lived scattered, the peasants would hear lies about the Jews, fill themselves with vodka, and set out to kill their Jewish neighbors.

    "They attacked them with knives and clubs and scythes and axes, killed them or tortured them and burned their houses. This was called a pogrom.

    "Jews who escaped the pogroms came with wounds on them and horrible, horrible, stories of little babies torn limb from limb before their mother's eyes. Only to hear these things made one sob and sob and choke with pain.

    "People who saw such things never smiled any more, no matter how long they lived and sometimes their hair turned white in a day and others went insane."

In the Passover story, which is enshrined in the Haggadah, the book retelling the events of the Exodus and of the order of the Seder meal, there is a profound and millennial old passage: 

"Not one man alone has risen up against us to destroy us, but in every generation there have risen up against us those who sought to destroy us; but the Holy One, blessed be He, delivers us from their hands." 

And so, it was and still is.

As if to remind us of the generational evil that is perpetrated against Jewish men, women, children – even babies – think on that terrible day, October 7, 2023. 

Muslim Arabs who call themselves Palestinians stormed into southern Israel from Hamas occupied Gaza. 

They broke into Jewish towns, villages and farms and slaughtered 1,200 victims in scenes of utter Islamist depravity reminiscent of the horrors committed by the German Nazis and so many of their European supporters during the Holocaust.

Yet even the Nazis were shamed enough by their degeneracy that they tried to hide evidence of what they had done. 

Not so the decadent Arabs who call themselves Palestinians. 

Oh no, they joyously filmed their inhuman acts of genocidal and bestial horror with glee to show their celebrating families in Gaza.

This is just one recent example in a long and dismal string of savage atrocities perpetrated by the local Muslim Arabs, those who today call themselves Palestinians, against Jews as the latter sought to live peaceful lives and redeem the land. 

By the way, there has never in all of recorded history ever existed a sovereign, independent Arab state called Palestine.

Mary Antin spoke about unspeakable horrors inflicted on Jewish families in Russia; atrocities which had been repeated time after time throughout Europe and the Islamic world for millennia. 

Those relentless persecutions, pogroms and the shattering genocide perpetrated against the Jews in the Holocaust by Nazi Germany, in which a third of the world's Jewish population was exterminated, were done when the Jews were still living in the long night of statelessness after Rome had destroyed Jewish Judea in 135 AD.

Yet today, since the modern miracle in 1948 of Israel's rebirth and reconstitution as a sovereign, independent nation, restored again to its native, ancestral and Biblical homeland, successive Israeli governments since that of Yitzhak Rabin – despite all the overwhelming and empirical evidence of implacable Arab and Muslim refusal to ever accept it as a Jewish state – plead for peace. 

It is offered again and again by them to the Arabs, those who call themselves Palestinians, and again and again rejected by them. 

The simple reason is that the Arabs who call themselves Palestinians do not want to live peacefully in their own state next to Israel. 

They simply do not want Israel to exist. Period.

Hard to exist in such a delusional Two-State Solution, yet a world, still malignly influenced by Barack Hussein Obama, and led by Biden, Blinken, ad nauseam, demand that Israeli leaders make suicidal offers of "land for peace." 

They pressure Israel to make endless concessions to the Palestinian Arabs who never, ever make any concessions to the Jewish state in return. 

Instead, the Muslim Arabs indoctrinate their children from pre-school age with relentless and utterly evil hate towards Israel and the Jewish people, so yet another generation of Arabs grow up with genocide in their hearts towards the Jewish state. 

As the Biblical Jewish prophet, Jeremiah, once said: "Peace, peace but there is no peace." Jeremiah 6:14.

So, Israel's repeated attempts to seek peace may seem to many observers as an aberration, an illogical and deeply naïve act in the face of so much evidence of antipathy and hatred exhibited towards the Jewish state by the Arabs who call themselves Palestinians.

After all, what nation would accept such Arab and Muslim barbarity and withstand so many Palestinian crimes against its civilian Jewish population – and still hope for peace? 

What nation would continue, despite the rain of thousands of missiles launched from Hamas occupied Gaza upon Israeli women and children, to hold out the hand of peace to a people who display such cruelty and commit crimes against humanity? 

What nation, after seeing the Hamas horrors inflicted upon the Jewish residents in the Jewish villages and towns on Ocober7, 2023, would still harbor such hopes of a peaceful Palestinian state living side by side with Israel? 

What people would still entertain the insanity of dividing up their tiny land under the fatal rubric of a "Two-State-Solution?"

Perhaps, only a state whose people embraced the Passover message for millennia and the Biblical passage in Leviticus19;18, 

"Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself," would remain convinced of the benefits to all, even to an Arab people who have poisoned and morally crippled themselves with the most abhorrent and loathsome anti-Jewish hatred. 

But, nevertheless, to give away one inch of the land is a profound rejection of the Covenant made between His people and Almighty God. 

It is also a strategy of national suicide.

So, we will soon approach the Passover festival, which brings light and blessings to all humanity, but which also brings the maniacal threats of genocide against the Jewish people by those who would unleash unutterable terror and who, like the evil president of Iran, the mullahs and the Ayatollah spew hideous ravings and shameless libels against the ever-suffering Jews.

There are millions of American Christians who support Israel and want to fight for her in the media and in the political realm against grievous pressure from the Obama influenced Biden Administration. 

Christian Zionists display immense and heartfelt love for the restored Jewish state and are a beacon of spiritual sanity in an increasingly sinful world gone mad.

So, these timely thoughts and questions must be urgently considered before, during and after the time of Passover for it surely is humanity's moral barometer. 

And it would not go amiss to remind the increasingly Godless United Nations and European Union of Passover's gift to the Jewish people and through them to the entire world.

The promised and undivided land.

Is the Son of Perdition Now Being Revealed?

BILL WIESE -CHARISMA NEWS

"Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God" (2 Thess. 2:3-4, NKJV).

When the Antichrist or the "son of perdition" is revealed, there will first be a worldwide falling away from God. 

We have seen this increasing even now among those who call themselves Christian. 

For billions of people to welcome this leader and believe his lies will require a massive change in the world's attitude toward God, the Bible, Christians and the Jewish people.

On Oct. 7, 2023, we witnessed a spirit of hatred and antisemitism that we have not seen since Hitler and the Nazis during World War II. 

Thousands of Christians are being murdered all over the world and for the most part, the news media is silent about it. 

Once an anti-God mentality dominates society, the world will be prepared to receive the Antichrist. 

Paul says the man of sin or son of perdition will then be revealed.

Jesus said in Matthew 24:4b, "Take heed that no one deceives you." 

The apostle Paul is warning believers not to be deceived about what will happen in the last days—before Christ's return. 

The world is being prepared or primed for this world leader's domination. 

The media and social media have been feeding people narratives that sound good, correct and compassionate. 

Yet many of these narratives are false and actually sow anger, hatred and intolerance into the hearts and minds of the people.

For now, this man of sin is concealed. 

It's interesting that his title in 2 Thessalonians 2:3 is the son of perdition. 

The only other reference to the son of perdition in Scripture is in John 17:12, where it refers to Judas Iscariot, who betrayed Jesus.

Second Thessalonians 2:4 states that when the son of perdition is revealed he will begin to "[exalt] himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God." 

He will come as an angel of light—a so-called savior to the world.

This is exactly what Lucifer attempted to do in Isaiah 14:13-14 (KJV), which says, "For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High."

We also know that Satan will completely dominate or possess this world leader. 

Many scholars believe he will enter a rebuilt temple in Jerusalem, where he will declare himself to be God incarnate. Some speculate that this man will be Jewish in order to be accepted by the Jews. The Scripture isn't clear on this.

Second Thessalonians 2:9 states that the son of perdition will use supernatural signs and wonders to try to prove he is God. It reads, "Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders." 

Jesus warns us in Matthew 24:24 about the last days. He says, "For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect." 

People will be so amazed at his feats that they will follow him. 

In the world's eyes, his signs will look extraordinary. 

Could this be with the help of AI?

The good news is the gospel is still being preached, people are recommitting their lives to Jesus Christ and becoming soul winners, many are praying and fasting for others and examining their lives to walk in a way worthy of our Lord and Savior. 

Young people across the world are also waking up and getting saved and becoming radically on fire for God! 

Barna surveys are reporting that Gen Z (13-17-year-olds) are motivated to continue learning about Jesus. In Oct. 2022, a Barna survey of 2,000 U.S. adults stated that 3 out of 4 (74%) say they want to grow spiritually, 77% say they believe in a higher power and nearly half (44%) say they are more open to God today than before the pandemic.

Share God's love and truth with others at every opportunity. Make yourself available and ready to minister to a lost and dying world. 

Tell people about Jesus. 

Do not fear man, but fear God.

Perry Stone: Demonic Weather Growing More Dangerous and Frequent

JAMES LASHER - CHARISMA NEWS

In the newest episode of "Manna-Fest with Perry Stone," the evangelist poses a scenario in which few regularly identify a correlation: demonic activity and the weather.

The spiritual realm intersects with every aspect of existence as truth manifests in parallel dimensions. Both the natural and the spiritual coexist, and frequently, natural occurrences carry spiritual meanings or connections.

This connection between the weather and the spiritual realm stems from Revelation 12's references to "cosmic warfare," "atmospheric warfare," and "atmospheric transition."

As more signs of the end times continue coming to our attention, Stone shows that biblical prophecy will see the "heavens shaken" during these turbulent times.

"Hebrews 12 and verse 26 God says this: that He would shake not only the Earth one more time, but also He would shake the heavens in three of the Gospels. 

And remember there are four Gospels in the New Testament, but in three of them Christ is recorded as saying that the powers of Heaven shall be shaken," shares Stone, referring to the verses in Matthew 24:29; Mark 13:25; and Luke 21:26.

Stone points out the widespread occurrence of bizarre weather phenomena, including hailstones, flooding, hurricanes, tornadoes and volcanic disruptions are now occurring at an increased rate, and all at the same time. 

He suggests that these events may be more than just natural occurrences and delves into the spiritual possibilities behind them.

"Spiritual war that happens in the heavenlies can impact weather on the earth," says Stone.

Recounting a spiritual warfare conference in Tampa, Florida, Stone described an intense surge of lightning strikes, not just in the air but actually striking the ground, in the area around the conference and the Daystar van sent to record the conference.

"Lo and behold there were 40 lightning strikes. 

Now this is like two hours before church, 40 lightning strikes not lightning in the air it was from the sky to the ground. 

The alarm went off in the Daystar truck; it hit the church; it blew out half of the PA system before our conference began that night; and it blew out transformers [and] it blew out power. 

And I'm telling you, every day, now that was the start of the conference, but every day lightning was all over the place and it seemed like it was trying to hinder the entire conference. 

When the conference ended weather was perfect," recounts Stone.

Pointing to the numerous examples of extreme and out of season weather in the Bible, Stone shows that these type of supernatural occurrences happened prior to the climate crisis and carbon footprint being blamed for current weather patterns.

"In the tribulation there will be a drought for 42 months in Revelation 11:6, Revelation 16:12, the Euphrates river is going to dry up during the Tribulation. 

So, I'm going to call this atmospheric transition by weather warfare or warfare that links with the weather," Stone says.

The Bible foretells that these weather events are going to take place, that it is a certainty and a sign of Jesus' return.

"Now, how does he [Satan] send a flood? 

We don't know. How does he control the rain? 

We don't know, because rain is a natural thing formed by clouds in the atmosphere. 

In the future, it's very clear in Revelation 12 that there's going to be cosmic battles taking place in the heaven[s] that are going to impact the weather patterns on Earth," warns Stone.

As we continue getting closer to the day of the Lord's return, according to Stone, we should not be surprised to see an ever-growing increase in strange and bizarre weather patterns on the Earth.

"I think as we get closer to the time of the end we're going to see bizarre weather patterns. 

We're going to see things happening in places that people said, 'wow, that has never happened here before. 

First time in history,' so I would consider these things to be a sign of the spiritual warfare that is taking place," reveals Stone.

Christian Values Defined The Western Success Story

Read Hanne's The Herland Report.

Exclusive: Hanne Nabintu Herland battles atheistic Marxist narrative about religion and morals

As history is twisted to fit the atheist Marxist narrative, we are made to believe that modern Western values are of secular or atheist origin. 

This is not correct. Leading scientists and philosophers during the 1600s' Enlightenment period and earlier were devout Christians. They developed ideals such as equality regardless of race, creed and gender; the value of human life, basic human rights and the need for rationality when examining nature. 

At that time, science and belief in God went hand in hand.

The 1776 American Revolution and the 1789 French Revolution only revived ideals of the rights of men that previously had been developed by Christians during the Middle Ages, when the monasteries were the high seats of knowledge. 

American historian Kenneth Scott Latourette explains in "A History of the Expansion of Christianity," 

"After the collapse of the Roman Empire, the Church, impelled by its Christian purpose, had become the schoolmaster of Western Europe and the tutor of the barbarians of the North. 

Under its auspices most of the universities of the Middle Ages had arisen."

Famous French philosophers Bernard-Henri Levy and Michel Houellebecq state that Western civilization would never have the high view of human life and rights if it were not for the Judeo-Christian idea of a blessed creation made in the likeness of God and, therefore, sanctified.

TRENDING: WATCH: Nuclear weapons plant forced to shut down due to massive wildfires

When Karl Marx, the father of atheist communism and socialism, called for the abolition of eternal truths such as justice, religion and its morality, he thereby legalized hatred for the traditional Christian moral standards. 

I point this out in my latest book, "The Billionaire World: How Marxism Serves the Elite." 

From this extremist pool of thought has come brutal attacks on Western stability, traditional jurisprudence and virtues, and the right to life, freedom and property. 

It is as if Marx were hired by our worst enemy with the goal of destroying Western civilization.

Marxism fundamentally denies the existence of the metaphysical dimension. 

The idea was that since the existence of God cannot be verified by examining the materialistic sphere – that which is observable by the naked eye – He does not exist. 

Only that which is empirically observable is real. 

The denial of the metaphysical dimension led to the denial of Bible-based morality, which is God's advice to humankind for the best possible life: "Do not steal, do not lie, do not desire that which is not rightfully yours, love one another" and so forth.

The leading European philosopher and atheist, Jürgen Habermas, is famous for radically changing his stance on the need for religion in society. 

He previously advocated strongly for the relegation of religion to the private sphere, yet now writes in "The Dialectics of Secularization: On Reason and Religion" that secular political theory has erroneously removed Christian ethics from society. 

In history, it has been religious morality and its belief in the universal law of nature enshrined in each man "which willeth the peace and preservation of all mankind," to quote John Locke, the intuitive knowledge about right and wrong, and the demand of men to do what is right that has been the most successful normative thought system able to motivate individuals to do good, show compassion and act more in accordance with the principles of solidarity with others.

These are the values upon which a democratic system depends, as it has the ability to make its citizens care about one another, as there is a higher degree of trustworthiness among state governors, who are held personally accountable to do what is in the best interests of the people.

Author Dr. Don Boys points out in a Daily Caller article: "Christianity changed the rules of behavior and produced a middle class not known to mankind. 

It had always been the rich and poor, the elite and the serfs. 

But with Christ, who was a carpenter, and Paul, who was a tent maker, physical labor was now respectable and no longer limited to slaves and serfs. 

There was honor in all work, and workers were to be treated fairly. 

All ethnic groups would be respected since all people were created by God. 

Laziness and idleness were seen as sinful. 

'If a man will not work, he shall not eat' was an admonition by the Apostle Paul. 

Precisely this attitude helped produce a vibrant middle class. It taught people to question the established church and legal systems."

The atheist focus on materialistic progress alone has created a moral vacuum in the West. 

We now suffer greatly from a serious lack of emphasis on moral energy. 

With the removal of traditional morality, empathy and solidarity slowly evaporate.

'Sanctuary' City Cutting Some Workers To Zero Hours So It Has Money For Illegals

But claims its agenda does not include 'layoffs'

The full impact of Joe Biden's decision to destroy all of President Donald Trump's border security plans and open the southern border to millions of illegal aliens finally is hitting.

One leftist "sanctuary" city, unable to cope with the flood of immigrants, says it will cut its employees hours, and pay, to as low as zero in order to have money for the newcomers.

The problem started on Biden's first day in office when he canceled the Remain-in-Mexico program, halted construction of a border wall, and much more.

Since then, literally millions of illegal aliens have breached America's southern border and moved in, often immediately becoming a recipient of social and welfare benefits.

The headache was mostly for border states first, but then buses loaded with illegals started arriving in New York, Chicago, even Martha's Vineyard and those locations that proudly boasted of their "sanctuary" status for illegals started fretting.

Now, some of those locations are looking at changing their status, so those illegals, especially the criminal elements, can be deported.

In Denver, a leftist city in a leftist state, officials are trying to cope by creating an unusual plan of not laying off city workers, but simply reducing their hours, and pay, to zero.

Do you feel sorry for the workers of the 'sanctuary city' of Denver?

The Washington Examiner reported the city's goal is to free up funding to address the "crisis" of illegals.

City officials confirmed this week some workers, starting in the Department of Parks and Recreation, may have their hours "cut to zero to reallocate those funds," the report said.

"Officials claim Denver is not laying off employees, rather some on-call employees will have all of their hours cut. On-call employees include positions such as lifeguards, coaches, and front desk employees," the report confirmed.

City spokesman Jolon Clark claimed, "The reduction in hours of operation and programs will affect the number of hours worked by many on-call, some to the point where they may not receive any hours. The final decisions on hours for any individual position have not been made yet."

The report explained Denver "is short $180 million" because of the illegals who have arrived in the last year or so, and the parks agency is hoping to make available $4.3 million.

Mayor Mike Johnston had talked of the plan earlier, insisting that workers who will be getting no hours and no pay are not being laid off.

"These direct impacts on DMV do not involve layoffs, nor do Parks and Rec involve layoffs of our current employees," he claimed.

Denver officials blamed President Trump and Republicans in Congress for the border crisis, even though Trump's security measures were working before Biden took office and literally created that disaster single-handedly with his executive orders.

Conservatives have pointed out that Biden could have, at literally any time, reinstated Trump's security measures, but he has refused to do so.

Some of those watching the politics most closely have contended that Democrats want the border open, and millions of newcomers to arrive, so they eventually can become Democrat voters to give the party a permanent majority.

WND SPECIAL REPORT – "IT'S TRUMP VS. SWAMP PSYCHOPATHS": From the Biden administration's enthusiastic support for amputating body parts of troubled children, to its obsession with bringing as many millions of illegal aliens, terrorists and Chinese soldiers as possible into America, it is increasingly clear that many of this nation's current leaders are, to put it plainly, stark raving mad.

Indeed, psychiatric experts are finally documenting how the symptom profiles of scary conditions like "Borderline Personality Disorder" and "Narcissistic Personality Disorder" PERFECTLY MATCH today's top leaders.

One groundbreaking peer-reviewed study published in 2023 documents how left-wing extremism is closely associated with "psychopathic tendencies." Likewise, retired psychiatrist Brad Lyles, M.D., explains how "one way of understanding the increasingly outlandish beliefs and behaviors of the left is through the lens of Borderline Personality Disorder." And one of America's top forensic psychiatrists, Lyle Rossiter, M.D., described Barack Obama's mental state as "Malignant Narcissistic Personality Disorder."

Consider a typical description of sociopathy: "Sociopaths are often well-liked because of their charm and high charisma, but they do not usually care about other people. They think mainly of themselves and often blame others for the things that they do. They have a complete disregard for rules and lie constantly. They seldom feel guilt or learn from punishments." Remind you of anyone?

From Joe Biden and Kamala Harris to their presidential Cabinet – including Attorney General Merrick Garland, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra – all of these people "have a complete disregard for rules and lie constantly."

But it's not just Democrat leaders. Multiple surveys now show how rank-and-file Democrats are TWICE as likely to be diagnosed with a mental disorder as Republicans – from depression to bipolar disorder to schizophrenia to narcissistic personality disorder. All this and much more is stunningly laid out in the March edition of WND's critically acclaimed Whistleblower magazine, "IT'S TRUMP VS. SWAMP PSYCHOPATHS." Don't miss it – you will see the whole political-cultural-spiritual war raging in the U.S.A. in a whole new light.
