As soon as I saw the numbers?
I knew there was something there.

And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.
"Awesome...I wish I could get excited but with what this world is faced with? And with wats coming? I just don't see elections in one country mattering all that much...Lots can happen between now and Jan 3rd...and after...happy they won, just not very excited going forward..."

"Did 40 trillion in debt go away?
Interest payment on the debt
is largest government expense.
Did rogue Al stop taking over the internet?
Are we still not gonna nuke Iran?
He's not a lame duck,
he is a "flame duck"
one commentator said
and about to go on a scorched earth policy that
this election give the motivation for..."
"They knew they were gonna get slaughtered
and couldn't have cared less
or they wouldn't have pursued
the policy's they have."
(And knowing that?
Is why I just could not have cared any less
about yesterdays (or any other) elections.)
"If there is one thing
Satan is good at giving people,
it's false hope.
Both red and blue gonna be wondering,
wtf happened here very shortly...
Were all stocked up
on water and can goods.
Enjoy the moment. Cause that's what it's going to be, a moment...I just cant...in normal times I would have, but these just ain't normal times..."
9:26 AM
There is a reason
they hacked the treasury in Feb 25...
This bunch of outlaws couldn't care less about an election...
And if you thought Trump was deranged before? Wait till you see what's comin... The world is a much more dangerous place now than it was yesterday...
"In the bad old days, insurgent colonels would surround the presidential palace with tanks and capture the radio station. Thanks to Trump, Musk didn’t have to worry about the palace, and he already had his own radio station (X), so he went straight to the heart of the matter – the Treasury.
"More importantly, Musk and a 25-year-old engineer named Marko Elez, who has previously worked for two of his companies, were given the ability to make changes to the payments system, thereby enabling them to stop disbursements of taxpayers’ dollars to recipients that the Trump crowd decide are illegitimate"
"The Bureau of the Fiscal Service is a sleepy part of the Treasury Department. It’s also where, sources say, a 25-year-old engineer tied to Elon Musk has admin privileges over the code that controls Social Security payments, tax returns, and more."
"A 25-year-old engineer named Marko Elez, who previously worked for two Elon Musk companies,has direct access to Treasury Department systems responsible for nearly all payments made by the US government, three sources tell WIRED.
(One source is one thing, three is quite another.)
"Two of those sources say that Elez’s privileges include the ability not just to read but to write code on two of the most sensitive systems in the US government: the Payment Automation Manager and Secure Payment System at the Bureau of the Fiscal Service (BFS). Housed on a secure mainframe, these systems control, on a granular level, government payments that in their totality amount to more than a fifth of the US economy."
"Trump’s reverse is all the more piquant because it comes on the day Iran’s leadership celebrates the anniversary of the seizure of the US embassy in Tehran in 1979,...
(God is tidy...Just sayin...)
"Iran’s supreme leader said anyone expecting a shift in US policy was “seriously mistaken”, however. “Those who still harbour even the slightest hope that the behaviour of the hegemonic system might change through partisan or factional shifts, or who imagine that making concessions to the United States can dissuade it from hostility towards the Iranian nation, are seriously mistaken,” Mojtaba Khamenei wrote."
"Ghalibaf (Iran’s chief negotiator, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf) added: “If the US government betrays the public will in order to serve international paymasters and blackmailers, it will learn our ‘no’ comes with a nightmare.”
"Yet Iran will also be asked to reflect on the wisdom of war by the Gulf monarchies, and possibly by Russia and China – the latter a country that finally seems to be stirring itself to find a solution to the blockade in the strait of Hormuz which is preventing badly needed Middle East oil exports from reaching its industries."
"For the next two months before the new Congress convenes in January – so reducing his budgetary options –
Trump has greater latitude,
and little accountability.
The damage to the Republican party has been done and cannot be undone."
(Seeing the plan here all along yet?
"6:38 AM
Awesome...I wish I could get excited but with what this world is faced with? And with wats coming? I just don't see elections in one country mattering all that much...
Lots can happen between now
and Jan 3rd...and after...
happy they won, just not very excited going forward...")
"Unsurprisingly the Trump influencers who advocated for the war in the first place are piling on pressure to strike again quickly. Laura Loomer wrote on X: “Time for President Trump to deal with Iran once and for all. Just do it, Nothing to lose now. Finish the job.”
("Nothing to lose now"
was the plan all along.
It along with having already seized control
of the treasury was a big reason they didn't care about winning the elections yesterday to start with:
"They knew they were gonna get slaughtered
and couldn't have cared less
or they wouldn't have pursued
the policy's they have."
As it sets up:
"Finish the job"
which was the plan all along.
"Hillary Clinton, Trump’s old sparring partner, is one who thinks Trump will probably launch the long-delayed attack. She said:
“I think he will feel trapped.
He will feel angry and resentful
and he will react aggressively.”
I think you can count on it.
It is a long way till 1/3.
Interesting date BTW.
Obvious reasons.
SOMETIMES?
I wish I didnt know what I do.
AND SOMETIMES?
I wish I didnt have to tell you.
Ezekiel 3:3
And he said unto me, Son of man, cause thy belly to eat, and fill thy bowels with this roll that I give thee. Then did I eat it; and it was in my mouth as honey for sweetness.
Revelation 10:9-10
9 And I went unto the angel, and said unto him, Give me the little book. And he said unto me, Take it, and eat it up; and it shall make thy belly bitter, but it shall be in thy mouth sweet as honey.
10 And I took the little book out of the angel's hand, and ate it up; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey: and as soon as I had eaten it, my belly was bitter.
20 And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.
(They will have no allies
and they shall get no assistance
from anyone.
So how far off really?)
21 Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.
22 For these be the days of vengeance,
that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
"Started talking about this five years ago or so and just got laughed at by people thinking we just had some kinda magical cure all that was gonna be able to fix this problem.
"He explained that besides travelling faster, HGVs also zigzag and do not move on a predictive path like regular ballistic missiles. Such quick, erratic movements evade air defence systems, which are designed to predict the path a missile will take."
"Though, like ICBMs, hypersonic glide weapons are launched by rockets high into the atmosphere, unlike the former, whose warhead is primarily powered by gravity once it begins its descent to its target, hypersonics dive back to Earth sooner before flattening out their flight path and then uses internal navigation devices to make course corrections and keep it on target while traveling even up to 12 times the speed of sound."
Modern jet airliners can travel roughly 10 nautical miles for every mile of altitude. Pilots aim for the nearest suitable airport and attempt a "dead-stick" landing. The famous 1983 Gimli Glider (Air Canada Flight 143) glided 100 km on no fuel and landed safely. Military jets sidestep the problem entirely by refueling in flight from tanker aircraft."
"We live in a society exquisitely dependent on science and technology, in which hardly anyone knows anything about science and technology. This is a prescription for disaster."
"More recently, it was reported that a team of Chinese scientists has developed and tested a prototype hypersonic flight enginethat is based on a design that was prepared by a Chinese-born US scientist around 20 years ago and was rejected by NASA. The scientist, Min Han Tang, had proposed the Two-Stage Vehicle (TSV) X-plane.'

(Look close as there is one on top of the other.)
(They told him it would never work,
Arrogance much?
Ezekiel 16:49
"The Message"
“‘The sin of your sister Sodom was this:
She lived with her daughters
in the lap of luxury—proud, gluttonous, and lazy.
They ignored the oppressed and the poor.
They put on airs and lived obscene lives.
And you know what happened:
I did away with them.)
"A statement from US Space Force Lieutenant General Chance Saltzman, the Deputy Chief of Space Operations for Operations, Cyber, and Nuclear during an event, giving a new twist to China’s hypersonic weapon capabilities.
"The Chinese hypersonic weapon,
according to Saltzman,
has an orbital character,
meaning it may stay in orbit indefinitely
unless the user decides to deorbit it.
This is the most recent piece of official information on this unique technology, which apparently employs
"In an exclusive interview with CBS News, General John Hyten, vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the No. 2 person in the U.S. military,revealed new details of last summer's Chinese hypersonic weapons test,
which sent a missile around the world
at more than five times the speed of sound.
"They launched a long-range missile," Hyten told CBS News. "It went around the world, dropped off a hypersonic glide vehicle that glided all the way back to China, that impacted a target in China."
"Heat-seeking capability allows Chinese hypersonic missiles to home in on almost any target – including stealth aircraft, aircraft carriers and moving vehicles on the street –
"With effective hypersonic precision strike weapons, the critical value of "strategic depth" "in traditional warfare will no longer exist.all the critical political, economic and military assets of a country will be at risk."
And just as you saw the iron mixed with baked clay,
so the people will be a mixture
and will not remain united,
any more than iron mixes with clay."
(Sound fimiliar?
it oughta.
One of the only places in scripture
where the US is mentioned.)
"What we've been doing to others can now be done to us basically. And it was our country's arrogance and greed that got us to this point."
"My barber buddy brought up a good point, "But what can I do about it?" Nothing...but rejoice...like Brother Brian said, "this is the time that the prophets of old wanted to see but didn't."
(The prophets of old wanted to see it?
(Evil being eradificated
from this wicked world)
But Christians today
Want to escape out of it?
WTF?)
"My contention is simply this:
If you know whats coming?
It's easier to prepare for it,
psychologically, spiritually, etc."
"To use a football analogy, you don't have your defense prepare for a wishbone offense when your next opponent runs four and five wide receiver sets with their offense.
If you do? You might get caught a lil off guard.
It's a post tribulation rapture
or I wouldn't have been showing you
whats going to be expected of true believers
when the time comes.
Just trying to minimize the shock value
when things do happen, thats all.
Pretty simple stuff really.

For the Day of the LORD

As you have done,
it will be done to you;
your recompense will return

Woe to you, destroyer,

Woe to you, betrayer,

When you stop destroying,
you will be destroyed;
when you stop betraying,
you will be betrayed.
