Last night’s presidential debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump began with a handshake “but descended into acrimony as the candidates traded barbs,” as the Wall Street Journal reports. In an Instagram post to her 283 million followers after the debate, Taylor Swift endorsed Ms. Harris for president. After the debate, the Democrat’s campaign announced their desire for a second meeting with Mr. Trump.
Whatever your thoughts on the debate in Philadelphia, we can agree that it demonstrated democracy at work. By contrast, the supreme leader of Iran, the “world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism,” is unaccountable to the nation he supposedly serves. And no such debates occur in Saudi Arabia, where fifteen of the 9/11 terrorists originated.
September 11 is appropriately known as “Patriot Day” in memory of those who were killed on 9/11. Flags will fly at half-staff today at the White House and all US government buildings and establishments throughout the world. We are encouraged to display flags inside and outside our homes today as well. And a moment of silence will be observed beginning at 8:45 a.m. (Eastern Daylight Time), the time the first plane struck the North Tower of the World Trade Center.
On this very somber anniversary, as we remember the 2,977 innocent victims of the deadliest terrorist attack in US history, we are reminded that our nation still faces enemies at war with democracy. From jihadists who would attack us at home and abroad, to cyberterrorists who would imperil our national infrastructures, to autocratic nuclear powers that would threaten our very future, none of us can be certain that there will never be another 9/11.
In this light, I’d like to share some observations from a recent experience that left a deep impression on me. More Here
Pastor Dewey Moede: For the most part journalism has disappeared in America. Most news agencies are bias, they lean to the GOP or the DEMS. I was trained in journalism at Brown Institute in Minneapolis way back in 1978. I started as a weekend news reporter at the Minnesota State News Network that same year. We reported the news, our opinions came in editorials, not news reports. I believe one of the main reasons GOD founded FGGAM is to report the news from a Biblical perspective, not a political perspective. When I look at Facebook, I see clearly the dumbing down of America. Most everybody thinks the are a news reporter! UGH! So many lies are posted. Read More Here: Glenn Beck torches Fox News as source of spiritual evil: ‘Dangerously intoxicating’
