Presidential Election Live Coverage 2020

[WaterSong]

Tacoma Washington...

I was back to watching my Live feeds last night. This time in Tacoma Washington.
Seems some 40 or so ummmmmm homeless people have decided to take up residency in the Fife Hotel.
As of last night they have confiscated 18 rooms.
These are members of Antifa and BLM that were taking up residency in a place they called "CHOP or CHAZ.
This article says they are homeless. And it's cold outside and people should have the right to confiscate private property
because the shelters are full.
The owner of the hotel states: They paid for the first night on 12/24 and have paid nothing since then.
He called the police but alas..... there's nothing they can do.

Let me repeat: I was watching LIVE FEED interviews with the people occupying... They are the SAME people who Set up CHAZ/CHOP.

Homeless advocacy group occupies Fife motel, calls for city and county to foot the bill
The "biggest crime of all is letting people freeze to death on the streets,” says a spokesperson for Tacoma Housing Now, which organized the move.

“Like most or all hotel owners he’s struggling right now because of the pandemic. In fact, we are bringing business to the hotel. We paid for the first night. And we’re demanding that the city and county pay for the other nights that we’ve been here,” Parson said.

Now this same organization is calling for bars and hotels in DC to close down during the protest that Trump supporters will be attending
on 1/6/21.

Please God don't let Mr.Howard abandon his hotel. This is precisely the motive behind this occupation!
Prosecute the law that was referred to in this video. Or, if the cops won't do their job, contact the state attorney general.
It's a felony. Put them in jail. Hey, free room and board. Just like they expect to have now at this hotel owners expense.

It's so easy to know who Soros pays to be in these groups. They wage hell on innocent people, commit domestic terror acts in places they occupy (Occupy Wall Street), ANTIFA, CHAZ/CHOP, then after they're in the news showing the world they are domestic terrorists, they change their name and are off to a new "cause".

Yes, it is wrong for homeless people to freeze in winter. But this is absurd. Invading a motel and instead of arresting them, police want to negotiate? This is the pattern of OWS/CHAZ/CHOP, ANTIFA. They'll give them time to leave? But let John Doe somewhere in that same city do that and the cops will escort them out of the room.
Why?
Likely because the DA is a Soros stooge. GS purportedly has spent $17 million to insure DA's of his choosing take office in major cities.
Who is Buying District Attorneys?

Then again, in the America Liberal radicals want to manifest there are states wherein if someone sets up a tent on your property, say you have a large woods and don't police it every single day because you're naive enough to think, it's private property, it's mine and no one else lives here. If a trespasser occupy those woods, and you want them thrown off your land for trespassing, there are states that say, sorry! Squatters rights prevail!
And they stay for as long as they want.
A woman answered an add on Craig's List wherein a family was seeking a nanny. Live-in nanny. The woman responded, got the job, didn't do the job, but had her own room. She put a lock on her door and went about her life. The family called police to get her out because she failed her side of the contract;being a nanny to their child.
Sorry! She has squatters rights. These folks even contacted the media and were a story for a time. The woman lived there rent free for months. Disappeared after the news report for awhile, came back, stayed for awhile and then decided to move.

The times they are a changin! Not for the better.

I see that someone that I have placed on ignore has left me a message that I cannot see or read.
In all fairness I did let them know they were on ignore... but for what it's worth... I am sorry
for their waste of time in trying to communicate with me.

At this point... I really don't care anymore what happens to the south of me. I am guilty of having allowed curiosity
to get the best of me... and thought this thread would make it easier to access RELIABLE information regarding the
election... I was wrong.

When everything is over... there are some members that I think will find it difficult to regain a position of respect
within these forums for how they communicate with others... and I am NOT sorry for trying to make that point..
However... I am sorry I tried to follow this thread for the purpose of learning something.

Sometimes simply telling it as we believe it can be a difficult thing. Jesus told it not only as He believed it, but, being the Truth Himself, as it was. In spite of that he would not back down but was will if necessary to walk alone.

"From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.
Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away?" John 6:66-67

But if we continue reading we see that though the many had left, he did not walk on all alone:

Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life" John 6:68

Is this the page? Amy Coney Barrett

If so, I don't think that's her actual page. On Twitter there are more than one Donald Trump accounts. His actual one is, #realdonaldtrump.
Some are clearly baiting and there to insult. Like the supposed Barron Trump account that is fake and vulgar but made "news" in some left wing tab's for its content as if it was the genuine article belonging to BT.

No, this was the page I was looking at Justice Amy Coney Barrett this particular page has 18k+ likes, the one you sent has 2.3k likes, whether if she manages the page or not I don't know, but whoever runs the one I just shared keeps people informed on recent SCOTUS decisions.

Not assassination but execution. BIG DIFFERENCE.

And it is not the Christian's weapon but the state's weapon.

For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil. (Rom 13:4)

Had the rule of law prevailed recently, all evildoers would have been locked up. But today they are wreaking havoc every day because lawlessness has become the norm.

When Christianity is proposing execution of others based upon lies, and wild unsupported conspiracy theories, it is no longer Christianity. It is simply the enemy inside men's hearts, blinding them to the truth that the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.

God awaken us. We so need you.

Just think of the 430 years the children of Israel were slaves in Egypt reaching out to God. He heard them and preparing Moses for the task sent the man to them. The whole thing was there plain for even a man of flesh to see the miracles of God. If they had continued to reach out as did Caleb and Joshua it would have been well. They had the written text, but they also had the anointed leadership of Moses, who only seriously stumbled once as it is written once they were on the pathway to the Promised Land. But... instead of that available strait and narrow way on they went toward the wide gate and died in the wilderness, their salvation out of Egypt forgotten.

America, my beautiful homeland... no sarcasm intended:

Bing video

west side story america song - Bing video


A whole lot of information, some quite accurate, according to my own experience and understanding. Were not these Americans from day one blessed by God... and yet what did they do or allow to be done with the much that they had? Back to the words of Jesus:

"But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more." Luke 12:48

Americans then are so much better than those 600,000 men who were led out of Egypt but after their 10 rebellions died in the wilderness? I would not want to make the call, but it seems like the Americans had one greater than Moses to lead... if they were willing to follow.



Where is the fence? Who is on the side of Jesus?

"And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, and he followeth not us: and we forbad him, because he followeth not us.
But Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no man which shall do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me.
For he that is not against us is on our part." Mark 9:38-40


You are falling back to a place that for me would be error. For you... perhaps not?

What is it that followers of Christ see all of the time? Those who have overcome/killed finally and completely their own enemies within themselves so that all of the attractions of the flesh are gone then like Jesus they will walk always in His Light and only weep when they see darkness anywhere... but Paul describes it like this:

"For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known." I Cor 13:12

And as per James:

"From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members?" James 4:1

And John:

"For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world." I John 2:16

And Jesus:

"And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are." John 17:11

We, seeing now through a glass darkly are still in that world of lust and pride. While our vision is obscured in any measure we do stumble. A Leader we have, but when we turn our eyes from Him stumble we will and if we do not reach out, we will fall...

Help us dear Lord!

Just one slight correction with regard to the freed Hebrew slave out of Egypt that you spoke about. They didn't all perish in the wilderness.

Sorry you have posted a couple things that have intrigued me, usually I just ignore it. Why on earth would you believe that because I live in GB that I would want to be an American. What an absolutely stupid thing to believe or claim. You obviously believe that America does all the saving , rescuing ect. You talk about others losing a sense of reality with regards to your country, think you just did exactly the same !
Do you think you are the only country that offers help to other nations, do you think that we do not support your country. We are allies not enemies and certainly not in competition with you, if you want to believe ‘ you are the greatest nation ‘ go right ahead. It might surprise you to know that I like living in the UK, I like being British - of course a nice Sandy beach on a remote island somewhere in the Caribbean would be a desired place to be from time to time ! Lol

Many have forgotten that when Hitler was prevailing over all of continental Europe, England stood against them, effectively alone, an island fortress that sacrificed its own strength from 1939 until late in 1941. Then only after being attacked itself by Germany's partner, the Japanese, did Americans finally do an about face. If England had not held when she did for as long as she did alone, we might see a very different world under the Nazis and their axis partners. Now we may find ourselves in a similar place, but England was there and we have had several decades to do it all better... ??? Whether or not we did is quite another question!

You can't make this stuff up.

 

[Taken]

Truth clearly is not your priority.

YOUR TRUTH...IS NOT my Priority!

If the voting authorities are lying and corrupt you have destroyed your belief in democracy.

What "BELIEF IN DEMOCRACY"?
Are you "utterly" IGNORANT and BLIND to NOT Notice "this so called Belief in Democracy", IS "ALL ABOUT YOU"?

You yap on and on and on About Democracy.
You Project and Speak on and on and on about Democracy.

Talking ABOUT Democracy, DOES NOT REVEAL "your understanding", of What Democracy "means TO YOU".
I have NOT brought up Democracy to you, Discussed my Beliefs about Democracy with you, Rejected your comments About Democracy ... Yet you think yourself an Expert To Dictate to me MY Beliefs.

Your repetitious comments and dictations have become more than than far fetched and ridiculous to laughable.

The whole reason for journalism is to speak truth to power.

Naive! An individual may have dreams of a career in reporting Factctual Truthful Worthy News to the Public...
HOWEVER...
Conglomerate "Networks" are IN THE BUSINESS of $$$$ "PROFITS".

You may not have Noticed...
"Dramatic Bombardment" /
"Opinions and Feelings of Everyone matters" /
"Gossip, Opinions, HAVE superseded FACTS"

More is Better.
More is Better.
More is Better.

Less is Boring.
Less is Boring.
Less is Boring.

Are you Brainwashed Yet? LOL

I am well aware of the Middle "paid Big bucks" Man in Journalism, who JOB is to "Edit" the Jouranalists "reports" to Dramatic Gossip, Opinions, Feelings, with a hint of truth.
A 30 minute news report ... has Become a 24-7 Gossip fest of Opinions of people who dictate They are "exclusive" insiders of Truth holders.
And People such as yourself...Soak up every word, without a clue how to or doing your own verifying.
(Fact check, another Network, is your "verification"...)
LOL.

I speak as a trained scientist, so this is my bread and butter. And my opinion does not matter, I either acknowledge the truth or suffer lies and deception.

Science is not a new concept. Science is simply About Discovery.
Science was Taught To Mankind (OT)
Expressly BY God, of How to Discover things God Provided on and in man's habitat (Earth) AND importantly HOW TO use the discoveries.
And Science continued Among the Hebrews and Tribes and to this day continues highly notable among the Jews.

Scientist, like Preacher, like Teacher, like Doctor, like Farmer, like Government head, etc.....at one time commanded Respect To the very person titled with that Professional leadership Title...People Trusting...they Effected their Their Position, for Good and by Godly Ways.........but no more!

Titles do not impress me. The flatout ungodly do not impress me. Fence sitters do not impress me.
My choice was to be YOKED IN and WITH Christ the Lord God.
My choice is to be in concert with other men of the Same "Conversion".

My choice is to be "Cautious" of men who promote themselves, others, things, that is ungodly.
And ... IF ANY Individual IS Mandating, Dictating, Forcing...A Way in contrast to God...it's Not a Mystery to comprehend.

An old saying; Follow the Money ...
(And you will discover the Intent).
Gods Truth...or man's Greed.

It costs to do this, to follow the truth, but in this life and Jesus exists.

•That is a position of a fence sitter.
Jesus' way (Truth), is NOT a cost.
It's a Willingness to Sacrifice what you begin with (that you neither, Created, Made, Bought).... your body and soul.
•An ungodly Man's way (Truth), is ENDLESS COST. Your labor, For an other TO Become Entitled to "Control and TAKE", the gain of your Labor.

You say Lord, Lord..."and" oh ya man, man Tell me what I can have, do, think, trust.
UGH.

Sorry, I did mention Caleb and Joshua in the beginning, but did not amplify. Also of course, the youngsters, under the age of 20 at the time they left Egypt. I believe, were not held accountable and were allowed to enter the Promised Land. Communication between people continues to be a problem at times for all of us.

Yes, your linked FB page looks to be more legitimate than the one I found.
I can understand people being upset with SCOTUS decision to turn away from righting the wrong, the Treason, behind The Steal.
I was all for Barrett too when she was nominated. Now, she's gone the way of the rest of them. Shows one side when a possible candidate for the seat, shows the real side once she's sworn in for life.

Justice Thomas is another one that was openly hostile during his confirmation hearing. Openly racist. And boldly lied under oath. Still, he got in.
He was asked during the hearing, mind you he was a practicing attorney at the time, his opinion regarding the Roe V. Wade decision.
He lied and said he had no opinion. Impossible for an attorney.
The day he was sworn in, appearing in his new SCOTUS robe, the press asked him that same question. Now, he had an opinion. He is pro-life.
If he's proud of that why lie when asked about his opinion on the case that made abortion on demand legal in the U.S..?

Supreme....Justice. Get sworn in tomorrow, serve for 5 years, retire from the bench, receive all benefits, pension, security, and salary for the rest of your life. But what SCOTUSJ is going to do that? They tell the president what he/she can do and not do.

The seat of Supreme power for life. More tempting than chocolate.
More dangerous than heroine.

Have you noticed how certain numbers repeat throughout the Bible? Jesus walked the earth for 40 days after his resurrection. Noah and his family were in the ark for 40 days and nights. It took the freed Hebrew slaves 40 years to arrive at the promised land that, had they traveled in a straight line, would have taken but 11 days.
Were these times calendrical? Or metaphorical?
Another thing to ponder as I have done, why do you think God allows the Hebrews to be enslaved again and again? To suffer for a great many years the yoke, and then to be freed by God. Only to be enslaved again. And when they are his chosen people.

Now, the promised land that is purportedly Israel is enormously dwarfed in its mere size by those surrounding them and who have no love for the Jew. Perhaps not enslaved as in past history yet still under threat, and under siege.

It isn't that I am asking to glean a definitive answer it is merely something I've wondered about from time to time.

These are the laws those cops were operating under. Of course the pepper spray in the face of the dad, on his stomach, while the offender cop held the back of his neck with one hand and sprayed him directly in the eyes and mouth with the other, was intended as punishment. And to send the message as to what happens when he doesn't obey.

(I so love when he sees what the money has printed on it. Oh, how we know that is so true in this world today.)

I think God chose a "special" people to demonstrate the examples men should and shouldn't do or be.

Judgement:

Deu 25:1 If there be a controversy between men, and they come unto judgment, that the judges may judge them; then they shall justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked.
Deu 25:2 And it shall be, if the wicked man be worthy to be beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down, and to be beaten before his face, according to his fault, by a certain number.
Deu 25:3 Forty stripes he may give him, and not exceed: lest, if he should exceed, and beat him above these with many stripes, then thy brother should seem vile unto thee.

2Co 11:24 Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one.

Speaking of Paul:
Act 9:15 But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel:
Act 9:16 For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name's sake.

That was the purpose for Israel.

Of the Jews received I, 40 x 5 - 1 = 199 stripes... interesting..

It's not the total 199 but the hundred .... and ninety nine..

Mat 18:12 How think ye? if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and goeth into the mountains, and seeketh that which is gone astray?

Jer 50:6 My people hath been lost sheep: their shepherds have caused them to go astray, they have turned them away on the mountains: they have gone from mountain to hill, they have forgotten their restingplace.

And also Mercy. You can't have light without dark, up without down.
And I believe Israel was chosen to be the examples of both good and evil.
They represent the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

just my thoughts.. but 40 I believe is a time of judgement, in Ecclesiastes there are time for opposites.
Israel demonstrates all of these. Reap sow, laugh mourn, love hate, etc..
Maybe 40 represents a "season" .

Indeed, while I have not yet made a detailed study of the numbers as I have thought to do for many years, I have certainly taken note of many of them in the scriptures. Forty [40] is one of the very apparent ones as you have indicated.

The 'why' of the repeated enslavement of the Hebrews for one thing sends a very definite message to anyone who reads their stories of enslavement. What goes around, comes around?

"The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun" Ecc 1:9

People as a whole seldom really learn from history. Often they learn only from their own mistakes but many do not even learn the right lessons from their mistakes. Some of the really good leaders [civilian or soldier] became as good as they did because unlike many they made a point to study history so as tried to understand why people had succeeded or failed in whatever task they had in mind. God repeats his message to men throughout the scriptures if we can see and understand them. The Hebrews are not alone in being hard-headed. Am I pointing this at my opponents alone? Certainly not. I have been and can be as hard headed as anyone else. How does one break up his fallow ground and get it to yield 30, 60 or 100 fold? How many times does God have to repeat His message? Why did God make men so hard headed in the beginning? Was God less than perfect in formulating His plan for men?

A whole lot of questions and there are answers, I believe,... but I don't claim to know them, or may even any of them. God does and once in a while He shares some of them with some of us. Me too?

Why one? Why two? Why seven? Why ten? Why 40? Why 153 fish? And so forth...?

Well said. :) We'll have plenty of time to get those answers one day brother.

Years ago I noticed what you observed, God repeats his message to men throughout the scriptures if we can see and understand them.

I think at that time in my life God was saying, yes, I'm right here and I'll show you why. Something was occurring in the moment and as it is unfolding it was as if this little door in my minds eye opened and I could see a thread attached to that present situation and trailing back through that door to another moment in my life. There near the same thing was happening save for some differences like, conversation and place.

But I could see that past moment as clear as if it was a video playing. I even heard what I was saying then as I was speaking at that present time. Then when I was quiet as the situation continued to unfold before me, I saw through that door what I'd said in the last part. And what happened. And I could see presently that that same moment was near again.
I was fascinated.
As that moment approached, I said something totally different than what I said in the past. And in an instant it was as if someone had lifted a bag of weight off my entire body.
Since that time many years ago in that repeat of that past event I saw through that door, I've never again had that situation appear in any form.

I'm thinking that was God telling me how to proceed, progress, from the loop of life lessons.
It was a glorious feeling. Even if I was delusional. I learned a lot.

Yes I know, most British people who either went through the war or had parents go through it will always be grateful that the USA stepped in , along with other allies. We would not have been able to succeed in the end without that help. However it does not mean that the USA is always ‘ our heroes ‘ and often as not we have joined the USA and coalition forces in other wars to support them. Reading some of the comments on the forum just lately, well you’d think we were enemies.

But I could see that past moment as clear as if it was a video playing. I even heard what I was saying then as I was speaking at that present time. Then when I was quiet as the situation continued to unfold before me, I saw through that door what I'd said in the last part. And what happened. And I could see presently that that same moment was near again.
I was fascinated.
As that moment approached, I said something totally different than what I said in the past. And in an instant it was as if someone had lifted a bag of weight off my entire body.
Since that time many years ago in that repeat of that past event I saw through that door, I've never again had that situation appear in any form.

I'm thinking that was God telling me how to proceed, progress, from the loop of life lessons.
It was a glorious feeling. Even if I was delusional. I learned a lot.

A person can learn a lot from studying the scriptures by subject. I have done that, but I learned a long time ago that I needed the whole loaf even if I cannot understand it all. One brother who taught me many things over the years admitted to me that he had never sat down and read through the whole Bible. He studied subjects using a concordance or some such thing to find things. He had read the NT but much of the OT he had never read even though he served God for many years. Yet, as I said, I learned a lot from him anyway. He fell out of a tree at the age of 68 on 3-1-2020 and died. He never had to deal with Covid-19 or the 2020 election.

I began reading the whole Bible through regularly in 1976. Now I read it regularly in German, Spanish and English finishing the three Bibles each time through in a little less than 2 years... but in addition to my scheduled readings, I do the topical studies or simply look for particular answers to questions that people bring up or that simply come into my mind. I understand very well that on many, perhaps on all subjects, I have not even really scratched the surface. Too many things over the years, which I was certain I had right, have been changed in me.

For the first years of reading the Bible I was trying to learn it all with my head, by my brain alone, not really developing the relationship with God that I needed. I presumed it was all done with the reading and memorizing. I backslid in the early 1990's and was away from God for about 10 years. When I was allowed to come back I began to talk with Him every day. That was about 18 years ago. I am still talking to Him every day. There are no days off, no vacations from God.

Yes I know, most British people who either went through the war or had parents go through it will always be grateful that the USA stepped in , along with other allies. We would not have been able to succeed in the end without that help. However it does not mean that the USA is always ‘ our heroes ‘ and often as not we have joined the USA and coalition forces in other wars to support them. Reading some of the comments on the forum just lately, well you’d think we were enemies.

People who did not experience the war years are often, I guess, disconnected from them, as if it was only another fictional story. I was born in 1943, so I have no personal memories of WWII, but I had lots of family who did remember and I bothered to look into it some myself beyond the outline provided in school. The history books when I was school often painted a very unflattering picture of England. The English were hardly perfect, but neither were the colonists who were to become US citizens. Sometimes to really get the best overall view of a situation, we need to see from both sides or to get the view point of someone not directly involved at all.

You can't make this stuff up.

That commercial runs here. Not the interview part but the whole of the first part of that Match.com ad. I thought it was a spoof for some SNL show coming up on the weekend when I first saw it. No, it's really Match.
That's in your face about as much as it can be.

eHarmony, started to connect Christian singles, followed Biblical values when it first opened. Christian singles, male to female. E.Clark Warren, the founder has a Master of Divinity degree from Princeton Theological Seminary. When his site first got noticed of course the LGBTQRSTUVWXYZ crew tried to get on because it was a Christian singles dating site. They even sued.
They lost. Private club, sorry folks. :) Hey, if you want to date gays start your own gay dating match up site. Simple, right? Not when they can insist they have a right to take over Christian dating sites.

Now, and he's still alive, eHarmony is advertising still only they show lesbians kissing, trans people as a couple.

Yes, that Match.com ad sums up how that happens rather well I think.
