U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES AIMS TO LIMIT TRUMP’S ABILITY TO WAGE WAR WITH IRAN

Corruption is a state of decay, pollution, or incorrectness. In the Bible, corruption is one of the effects of sin that resulted from the fall of man… There are three accounts in the Gospels in which Jesus states that a kingdom divided against itself is laid waste or a house divided cannot stand (Luke 11:17;  Jesus’ argument to the Pharisees was logical: a kingdom that is at cross-purposes with itself will fall. Any household riven by infighting will tear itself apart. Jesus was obviously casting demons out of people. If Jesus was in league with Satan, or if Satan was somehow working through Jesus, it is unlikely that exorcisms would be a priority, because why would Satan cast himself out? Satan has more practical wisdom than to allow his demonic underlings to group themselves into warring factions…

Birth Pangs

Jesus chastised religious leaders in the first century for not knowing the time of His arrival. Will we make the same mistake today? Christ stated how His second coming would be preceded by global events signifying the end of our age. We may not know the day or the hour, but we can know the season!

On January 9, the US House of Representatives (one of two chambers of the Congress) will vote to limit President Donald Trump’s ability to wage war with Iran, Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced.

“Members of Congress have serious, urgent concerns about the administration’s decision to engage in hostilities against Iran and about its lack of strategy moving forward,” she said. “To honor our duty to keep the American people safe, the House will move forward with a War Powers Resolution to limit the President’s military actions regarding Iran.”

Pelosi noted that Trump’s action – authorizing a January 3 strike that killed Iranian General Qasem Soleimani – was “provocative and disproportionate” and done without consulting with the Congress.

The measure will likely pass the House, which is controlled by Democrats. However, it’s unlikely that it will pass the GOP-controlled Senate, at least in the current conditions. Additionally, Trump can veto the measure, as he did last year when Congress tried to end the US military action in Yemen. (the US in fact supports the Saudi-led intervention in the country under a pretext of combating terrorism)

The House moved forward with the war powers measure came after Iran retaliated on January 8 for Soleimani’s assassination by launching ballistic missiles at two US military bases in Iraq.

President Donald Trump’s national address in which he revealed that there would be no military action in response to the Iranian missile strike became a sign of the possible de-escalation. However, the very same measure potentially undermined his position in the internal political power struggle. MORE HERE

Now, Trump’s opponents will try to use the current situation in order to pressure his administration. Meanwhile, the US-Iranian crisis is far from being resolved.

“And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions.” (Joel 2:28.) Education is useless without the bible (Daniel Webster) “Courage is as “fear that has said its prayers.”

Bring Trump Down at Any Cost, That Would Include the Soul of This Country, Evil…

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is facing pressure from frustrated Senate Democrats to end the ongoing impeachment standoff with Senate Republicans, as it’s clear Majority Leader Mitch McConnell isn’t going to acquiesce to her demands to hash out terms for the upcoming impeachment trial, according to Bloomberg.

“If we’re going to do it, she should send them over. I don’t see what good delay does,” said California Democratic Senator Dianne Feinstein – who also told Politico “The longer it goes on the less urgent it becomes.”

“So if it’s serious and urgent, send them over. If it isn’t, don’t send it over.“

Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) wants to start the trial immediately.

“My expectation is that we’ll be able to start this trial next week,” he said, adding “The leverage over Republicans exists in the votes we take inside the trial.”

Several other Senate Democrats also showed their impatience with the Democratic leaders’ current strategy. Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) said Wednesday morning that Democrats “should move on” and turn the articles to the Senate and Sen. Jon Tester (D-Mont.) said he’s “ready” for the trial to start.

“We need to get folks to testify and we need more information … but nonetheless I’m ready,” Tester said. “I don’t know what leverage we have. It looks like the cake is already baked.”

“I respect the fact that she is concerned about the fact about whether or not there will be a fair trial. But I do think it is time to get on with it,” said Sen. Chris Coons (D-Del.). –Politico

And according to Rep. Peter Welch (D-VT), the Senate will get the impeachment articles from Pelosi “sooner rather than later.”

That said, Pelosi continues to dig in.

In a closed-door meeting with fellow House Democrats Wednesday, Pelosi gave no hint that she was ready to set a timeline for sending the articles of impeachment to the Senate, according to lawmakers.

“We are waiting to see what the terms are,” Pelosi said afterward. She said she wants McConnell to release a resolution setting out the Senate rules for the trial before she takes the next step. “Then we’ll be able to name our managers. But we can’t do it until we see the arena they’re going into.” –Bloomberg

McConnell – who has promised a speedy acquittal of Trump – has all but told Pelosi to pound sand, saying in a Wednesday speech on the Senate floor: “There will no haggling with the House over Senate procedure,” adding “We will not cede our authority to try this impeachment.”

McConnell, who wants to engineer a quick acquittal of the president, in effect declared victory Tuesday when he announced after meeting with GOP senators that there are enough votes among Republicans to set the terms for the impeachment trial without Democratic support.

The rules, he said, would be similar to those used for then-President Bill Clinton’s impeachment trial 21 years ago. That would set up about two weeks for arguments by House managers and Trump’s defense, as well as senators’ questions, before addressing the thorny issue of whether to end the trial without any fresh documents or witnesses. Both sides could then call for more testimony but would need 51 senators to agree.

McConnell said the Clinton precedent doesn’t guarantee witnesses will testify, but it also doesn’t preclude it. Still, the majority leader would be able to pressure GOP senators to stand firm against calling witnesses. –Bloomberg

The Birth Pains Are Growing Stronger….

One of the signs of ruling class collapse is when they can no longer enforce the rules that maintain them as a ruling class. When the Romans started making exceptions to republican governance, it was a matter of time before someone simply decided the rules no longer applied to them. Perhaps the robot historians will consider Obama our Marius or Sulla. Maybe that person is in the near future. Either way, the rule of law is over and what comes next is the rule of men.

“Man will ultimately be governed by God or by tyrants.” as in Nancy Pelosi (D-San Fran-feces)

Our government has been overthrown. As evidenced by Trump’s capitulation on the border, his recent servitude to the GMO industry and his acquiescence to the warmongers, our President has been compromised. Our liberties are being eliminated one by one. Gun confiscation is next. The Constitution is gasping its last breaths. Our borders are destroyed and our culture has been turned upside down by every perversion known to man.
