Retcon

After the profane attack on Christianity during the opening ceremonies of the Olympics, it was a relief to sit among hundreds of Christians in Sunday morning worship service praising the Lord. 

People have expressed astonishment that the Olympics would open with such an insensitive, woke display and offend millions of Christians worldwide. Unfortunately, many cannot grasp the warped minds of godless, progressive socialists. 

I keep waiting for the light bulb of reason to turn on in the minds of liberals, but if they don’t get it after four years of Biden/Harris, they probably never will. A twisted individual used the occasion of my mother’s recent death to offer a feigned email condolence before launching into the warped and hateful screed of Trump Derangement Syndrome. 

The liberal commentariat rushed to explain and defend the Olympic freak show of severed heads, faux blood shooting from windows and drag queens around the communion table. They said it was artful and “inclusive,” as they tried to tell us we didn’t see what we saw. The opening ceremony should have been all about the world class athletes who have earned our recognition and support. Instead, the ceremony will be remembered as the travesty of elitist Euro woksters. If this is what Macron’s France has become, I don’t see the need to save them again. 

A friend told me he believes we are entering the end times. Since Jesus’ Olivet discourse (Matthew 24) people have been wondering when the end will occur. Jesus said he didn’t know and I certainly don’t. However, we are undoubtedly living in the destructive times of our modern day Ahab and Jezebel (1st Kings 19). History teaches that Ahab, like Corn Pop, “was a bad dude.” But his Jezebel was worse.

I understand why people have dark thoughts because we see “wars and rumors of wars” all around us and lies promoted as truth. God will not be mocked (Galatians 6:7) by godless elites without frightful consequences. We should be worrying that Hezbollah claims it has an EMP (electromagnetic pulse) weapon to destroy Israel, and NATO member Turkey threatens to invade the Jewish nation to “protect the Palestinians,” the people Turkey and other middle Eastern countries treat as pariahs. 

I had lunch with a friend who expressed concern for me. He is worried that my outspokenness will put me at physical risk or that my “voice” will disappear from the pages of the Focus. I told him that I’m probably too small a fish for the Democrat’s inJustice Department to be concerned with. (I know that sentence ended in a preposition, but sometimes it’s just awkward not to write the way you think). Furthermore, the Focus has stood behind my ramblings for 15 years.

With all that said, let’s return to “Kamalot,” where Democrats and their media goons try to reinvent Kamala Harris (KH). Retcon is short for recontextualization, defined as revision of an established story. In other words, it is the reimagining or reinvention of KH, the woman Joe Biden said was in charge of the border. They now tell us she was never the “border Czar.” But, in true Orwellian doublespeak, they tell us we didn’t hear them call her border Czar. Likewise, they tell us she can’t be a DEI hire, even though Joe Biden vowed to select a woman of color as his vice president running mate, showing us the selection was principally sexist and racist rather than meritorious. And we’ve seen what non merit, ideological DEI hiring does: it gets people shot and killed like President Trump and Corey Comperatore.  

So we must pay attention as the Democrat party tells us they are “saving democracy” by forcing Ol’ Joe off the Democrat ticket and anointing KH. Actually, it was the Democrat politburo, consisting of Obama, Pelosi, Schumer, and the donor class who threatened Biden with the 25th amendment and dethroned him, thus invalidating the votes of millions of Democrats. 

Democrats and their alphabet media are trying to suppress the fact that the Congressional voting record of KH was to the left of Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders. She is not “moderate.” The “Karens” for Kamala, “Dog moms for Kamala” and “White Men for Kamala” apparently are oblivious to the border catastrophe caused by Biden and his media dubbed “border Czar.” 

These same sycophants ignore the historic inflation produced by the Biden/Harris administration and her opposition to fracking and American energy independence. And what about her support of Black Lives Matter and defunding the police? Or the fact that KH never won a single delegate in her bid for the presidential nomination, is less popular than Biden and wants Medicare for everyone (even illegals)? She can’t keep a staff and speaks word-salad. But most importantly, can you trust someone who hid Biden’s dementia? 

Apparently, Democrat talking points went out labeling JD Vance as “weird.” The Republican vice presidential candidate is a former Marine, an Ohio senator and has a rags to riches story. He is married to a “woman of color” and has three children. Weird is the Democrat Rachel Levine, luggage thief Sam Brinton and the trans woman who flashed his/her breasts on the White House lawn. 

“A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds,” said Ralph Waldo Emerson. So, voting for someone because they have a “D” beside their name is as bad as judging someone by the color of their skin (or their sex) rather than their character (Martin Luther King). It’s just plain wrong. Just like it is insane to trust the legacy media because they have repeatedly lied to us.  

Our country is in a time of shadow. However, shadows are only possible because of the bright light of truth. Our shadowy shell of a president has been discovered, and the cackling Kamala cannot run from her record. And the light of truth will reveal the Secret Service and FBI rats in the basement hiding from the light of truth.  

Every day there’s a new revelation about the attempted assassination of President Trump. A friend asked my opinion of July 13, so I offered three speculative possibilities. The first is abject incompetence of the Secret Service (SS) leadership. The second is a murderous conspiracy. But the most logical explanation is the political ideology of the SS leadership which led to complacency and resulted in murder, serious injury and near assassination of President Trump.  

X-Files FBI Agent Mulder said, “The truth is out there.” Demand it!
