Who dares not take a knee? It’s beginning to look as if much of society is ready to give up.   All the networks are bowing down, in all their woke righteousness.   They’re all running statements declaring a stance with Black Lives Matter, which now has apparently become allied with the anarchists.   The cable news networks have aligned themselves with the rioters they call “peaceful protesters,” explaining day and night how their “anger” is righteous. Anyone who doesn’t join the cause, take a knee, and come down on the side of the abolition of police is “part of the problem.”

They’ve canceled the TV shows Live PD, Cops, and suspended Paw Patrol, which is a doggy cartoon.   The networks will not stand for any positive portrayal of law enforcement. It disputes their insistence that ALL police are racist.   In fact, these programs dispute the racist, communist slogans that we must all acknowledge as reality. So you’re not allowed to see them anymore.   Take that!

After multiple funerals, memorial services and finally the burial of George Floyd, the protests continue. Not one American approved of the slow-motion murder, and the idiot cop who perpetrated the act will pay with his life.   Nobody, but nobody believes it will be otherwise.   But the “protests “ continue to insist that ALL police are racist and must be disbanded.

Not that logic has any quarter these days, but how is it that we’re lectured and warned around the clock that we must fall into line and agree that ALL police are racist because of the act of one idiot cop, but we must not believe that “peaceful demonstrations” have anything to do with the rioting and looting and burning that we’ve witnessed in liberal cities from coast to coast.   If the protesters can’t be blamed for the looting and destruction, then surely all police can’t be blamed for the actions of Derek Chauvin.   But logic plays no part in the destruction of western civilization.   The important thing is that EVERYBODY SUBMIT!

It looks like almost everyone is doing just that.   The NFL has become a virtual booster of the BLM, Colin Kaepernick position. What!   Even Nascar has given in?   All the networks and news outlets have taken a knee.   A whole bunch of Senators posed in their masks, down on one knee (except of course Nadler, who couldn’t.  Hopefully we’ll never find out why).   Some had a terrible time trying to get back up, but it’s probably racist to have noticed. Mrs. Pelosi is demanding that statues be removed from the Capitol, while her constituents are tearing them down all over the country.

Military installations must be renamed, because, you know, many were named after historical figures the communists want removed from memory.   Street names must be changed. School names must be abolished. The demands are endless, and they’re just getting started.   It’s like the early stages of the French revolution, and they’ll eventually turn on each other for not being radical enough.

It was known at least two days before any mainstream outlet carried the news, and even then they had to report it because President Trump made it the subject of his own comments. Even now, the mainstream news only reports it because the Washington governor and Seattle Mayor are telling him to mind his own business.   That must cheer the souls of the communist mob that has taken over Seattle’s City Hall, a police precinct and six blocks of downtown Seattle.   It appears they’ve declared their own communist Utopia.   If water and electricity are cut, it probably won’t be long until they come slinking out. It will likely be in the middle of the night, as they try to escape the nightmare they’ve created, without being caught. For now the city is under their control. /the mayor and governor are OK with the insurrection!   President Trump told them to get it under control or he’d intervene.   They told him to get lost, and the media is cheering.

Who will bring the insurrection under control?   Will the communist anarchists take over other cities?   The Seattle police have already retreated and let this bunch of radical ideologues occupy downtown. Watching the behavior of police in nearly every place the “protests” have turned into riots is not very reassuring. But it’s not their fault, it’s the fault of the mayors and governors who’ll undoubtedly end the employment of all who don’t submit, including the police.   We’ve seen examples of police prostrating themselves before the raging mob. The media outlets and big corporations are firing everyone that offends the rioters.   If that’s the way this is going to go, you can kiss the USA goodbye.

We’ve got a revolution underway in the United States.   It’s as if we’re back in the 1960’s with the Black Panthers, Symbionese Liberation Army and the radical communist “intellectuals.”   The only difference is they’ve got hundreds of thousands who’ve been indoctrinated by government-run schools and mis-educated by radical university professors who’ve been working hard to turn America’s kids into raging lunatics.

They’ve got to somehow make all this about President Trump.   But he was just a kid when the anti-American, anti-Western civilization ideology took hold in the United States.   Our nation is somewhere between the French Revolution and the Maoist rebellion. This time it’s in the land of the FREE, that is if we all submit to the illogical nonsense.   How long have all the statues they’re tearing down been standing?   How long have military bases carried the names that the left now finds intolerable? You mean we had EIGHT LONG YEARS of a black presidency, and none of this was offensive then?

America should have been absolved of all accusations of RACISM for having put up with Barack Obama and all his anti-American clap-trap.   Meanwhile he placed a bunch of globalist, pro-gay, anti-American figureheads in the top ranks of every alphabet agency.   They’ve done everything within their power to subvert, accuse and prosecute President Trump or any who dare support him.   None of it got him out of office.   Not “Russia, Russia, Russia.” Not the Ukrainian phone call and fraudulent impeachment.   Not the Bat Flu.

Now they’ve got to destroy everything. And nobody’s getting in their way. We can’t fight against this onslaught of evil, except to denounce it, understand WHY they want to rage and destroy. Our only choice us to trust in their ultimate enemy, God Almighty, to make sure it all ends well…one way or the other.   Have a great Sabbath. God is infinitely stronger than the skinny anarchists and those who would bow down to them. If we don’t stand against this godless revolution, how are we going to refuse the Mark of the Beast?   The masses won’t. Are we the only ones?

The post Weekly Update by Mark Armstrong – 12 June 2020 first appeared on Garner Ted Armstrong Evangelistic Association.

We woke up to news, delivered by the President, that it’s a good day.  It turns out that unemployment numbers have already started to recover, no thanks to the big cities on both coasts and some in between.  That means…it must be flyover country leading the recovery.  Apparently the sanctuary cities are determined to keep the “lock-down” going as long as possible.  They simply cannot abide the prospect that the economy will bounce back to the historic prosperity we saw before the great panic set in.

President Trump expressed the sentiment this morning that the lock-down, the “closing” of the American economy, was necessary.  He apparently believes the doctors of doom, that millions would have died premature, horrible deaths if it hadn’t been done.  We’ll probably never know, but our leaders erred on the side of caution, or we hope that’s what they did.  It was startling and unnerving to see that local officials could run over the Constitution like it doesn’t exist, in some cases sending out policemen to arrest people for simply trying to get their children out of the house for some semblance of a normal day.

That couldn’t have looked any more idiotic when compared with the vandalizing, looting, and burning that we’ve seen in recent days.  The mainstream media couldn’t have been more accusatory of anyone going to the beach or taking their kids to a park.  It was a CRIME, and they couldn’t contain their disgust.  But the protesters, looters and rioters?  They patiently explained why we should sympathize, and understand their “feelings”.  Their cause is righteous, they told us, and the looting is really symbolic.  They’re only taking what’s rightfully theirs from a nation that was founded on racism, so they said.

We watched as antifa, black lives matter and anarchists of every stripe descended on America’s most glamorous retail districts to steal everything they could carry.  Every attempt was made to breach White House security and physically get at President Trump.  Fires were started in the hope that they could burn down the White House.

Meanwhile, smug news persons were implying that President Trump was the real thug, going into an underground bunker and “hiding behind a suit.”  That’s what CNN’s most prominent homosexual had to say.  Black Lives Matter calls for all police departments nationwide to be abolished.  It may well get traction with the likes of de Blasio or Gavin Newsome, or any of dozens of their ilk.  As near as we can tell, nobody but nobody could even stand to watch the slow-motion killing of George Floyd.  The whole thing is wretched and without justification.  Why it took so long for charges to be made is another mystery.  We knew immediately what needed to be done, but it took Minneapolis officials days and in the case of the three onlookers, over a week to do what obviously needed to be done.  That gave the goon squads time to organize and organized they were.

America has been flirting with disaster for a long time now.  A growing rejection of God is the primary problem, but nobody dares say so.  These “American values,” of homosexuality, abortion, and communist radicalism are at the heart of all that threatens the last bastion of sanity on earth.  Every other nation descended from ancient Israel has all but completely caved to socialist demands.  Now the idiots on the “news” are demanding we give up and fall in line.  But we’re not, and we won’t.

They expect us all to take a knee, social distancing with our masks securely attached, and finally admit that they, and Colin Kaepernick were right all along.  Some may, but not here.  Wherever there is brutality on the part of law enforcement, the law should be applied there too.  But studies show that the narrative that police are indiscriminately killing unarmed blacks is nonsense.  If that should happen somewhere, the police involved should have to live under the same laws as everyone else.  But what on earth are the lunatics thinking when they are “proud” that everything is being burned down by communist anarchists?

The past week and a half has shown us all that many Americans don’t love America.  They want mayhem and lawlessness.  We’re lectured by “news” persons that the goon squads are in the right, and we’re just racist if we disagree.  They claim that we’re all racist, even if we don’t know it.  The fact that we don’t know it is just another sign of how racist we are.

That we believe in God is another sign of ignorance to the mainstream.  That we want to preserve what He designed and ordained just makes us the more pathetic in their squinted eyes.  But it all boils down to power.  And they want Donald Trump gone from the White House so bad they can taste it.  They’ve tried everything.  One scam after another for three solid years.  We’ve had no more than a week’s respite at a time before we’ve seen another “crisis.”  Against all odds, he’s still the President.

We still reverence the Creator God, and credit Him with our freedom and our blessings.  After everything they’ve thrown, all the lies, every improbable scam, we haven’t changed our minds.  No way we’re about to join these anti-American anarchists to squander the blessings God has so generously poured out.  So, expect another “existential crisis” to emerge any minute now.  Or maybe they can keep their “police brutality” narrative running a little longer.  Funny how we’ve gone from that to no police at all.  Wouldn’t they love that?

Many cities have already issued a license to steal, refusing to even show up to investigate any theft that doesn’t qualify as a felony.  Our cities were already teetering between a crime wave and being overtaken by the homeless, who by the way can do as they please, defecate wherever they squat, shoot-up in broad daylight, and the city leaders are nothing but proud of themselves.  Aren’t they compassionate?

We’re seeing some hopeful signs of an American recovery.  If there’s no return to God, if there’s no renouncing of at least our most heinous sins (those touted as “national values”) then any recovery will be brief and the last hope on earth will be extinguished.  Let’s do our part. And let’s hope the mayors and governors of some of the biggest cities on earth end the corona scare immediately.
