Desecrated the Office

This blog post will be short and directly to the point about holders of the highest office, the presidency in my lifetime who have desecrated through sexual misconduct “IN OFFICE” and wouldn’t you know it, they were all Democrats.

With the release of the Epstein Files Democrats are scrambling to “connect the dots” between Epstein and President Donald John Trump while ignoring the facts that House Democratic member Stacey Plaskett actually exchanged text messages with Jeffrey Epstein during 2019 congressional hearings where Epstein was “giving her real time help on how to damage President Trump’s reputation”.

There is a 2019 mini-series documentary “Presidents at War” that highlights U.S. Presidents from President Dwight David Eisenhower to President George Hubert Walker Bush.

In this series they cover facts that President John Fitzgerald Kennedy engaged in sexual activity in a room on the floor about his brother Robert Kennedy’s Attorney General office. The “justification” was his back pain from military service during WWII and the medication prescribed by his VA doctor caused him to be frequently sexually aroused. Thus a name like Marilyn Monroe and possibly others became his therapy? And what about the intern allegedly being raped by Kennedy while working in the White House?

Also in this series they cover facts that President Lyndon Baines Johnson engaged in sexual activity on the couch in the Oval Office with a number of unnamed women. So blatant was his extramarital activity that he ordered a buzzer or bell installed so as to alert him when First Lady Ladybird Johnson was headed his way at these most inopportune times.

Who can forget or condone President William Jefferson Clinton and the “Red Dress Lady” having oral sex under the desk in the Oval Office during his presidency? Democrats actually ignore the fact that many times President William Jefferson Clinton was himself connected to Epstein’s “fantasy island” enterprise.

The Democrats assault on President Donald J. Trump’s alleged sexual indiscretions long before taking the office of the presidency pale in comparison to these documented examples of “soiling” the office of the President and the Oval Office by these former Democratic presidents.

The series did not highlight any sexual indiscretions of other former presidents. – RTM

Being Politically Incorrect in a PC World

Do you ever stop to think what it means to be politically correct when everything you do or say is under the microscope?

Why are things the way they are?

Why has it always been done this way?

Why not change to make it better for everyone?

It’s been said that necessity is the mother of invention. If that is true then unless it becomes necessary, nothing changes? I don’t think that is necessarily true because if something is bad, it will become progressively worse over time until positive changes occur.

The boundaries for all life on this earth have been established by the God who created it.

We refer to it as the natural law of physics.

What goes up must come down.

The gravitational pull on earth we call gravity.

The speed of light is the velocity at which light travels from the sun to the earth.

Travel is measured by the mode or distance in which one uses to calculate travel.

Political Correctness is intentionally saying something so as not to offend anyone. We refer to that walking on egg shells. BTW it is impossible not to offend anyone all the time.

Political power seeks to control everyone all the time using fear and intimidation.

The key to becoming politically incorrect is obedience to the laws of God without submitting to the whims of man.

Fear breeds fear. Fear leads to division. Division leads to destruction.

Love conquers fear. The love of God conquers hearts that are in submission.

It takes a special kind of person to stand for their convictions because it’s the right thing to do even to the point of death, and in spite of personal attacks.

Romans 8:31

^31 “What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?”

The real key is keeping the main thing, the main thing and Jesus is the main thing.– RTM

What We Know About Mary

During a recent men’s breakfast the speaker gave us a new perspective on Mary and Joseph, Mary’s cousin Elizabeth and her husband Zechariah who in their old age would give birth to a baby named John, we know him as “John the Baptist” just 3 months before Jesus was born. Our speaker phrased it in the context of the old Mission Impossible television series, as Mary’s “Mission Impossible” and more importantly the impossible mission of the Most High “Yhwh” who provided the way for man to be saved from sin, through His Son Jesus on the Cross at Calvary.

What we know about Mary is that she found favor with Yhwh and was chosen specifically for a special “one-off” mission going where no man or woman had gone before. Mary believed God and when called by name and in a vision, she unhesitatingly accepted the challenge. Going against social norms of her time, Mary could have been ridiculed and chastised and looked upon by the community around her because of what people “thought” she had done outside of wedlock.

Mary’s fiancé, Joseph, was a good man who considered doing what seemed right in the eyes of society, divorcing Mary privately and letting her deal with her pregnancy alone, except Joseph was called in a vision and told of his part in the birth and rising of this most unusual baby to be named by him, Jesus.

It would be up to Mary and Joseph to rise up their child (God’s Son) in the way and admonition of the Lord in preparation of the life he would lead, and the death he would suffer on the cross.

Mary knew God and put her trust and her faith in God’s plan to save mankind from itself.

Mary was the very first worshipper of the Messiah, way before it was cool.

Mary was there when 12 year old Jesus taught the scribes and priests in the temple, speaking as one in authority.

Mary was there when Jesus did his first miracle, turning water into wine at the wedding supper.

Mary was there during the 3 years of preaching, teaching and performing miracles.

Mary was there when Jesus was flogged and turned over to be crucified.

Mary was there when Jesus appeared outside the empty tomb.

Mary was there when Jesus ascended into heaven.

Mary was Jesus’ most ardent and faithful follower.

There are many misconceptions about the young Jewish girl who gave birth to baby Jesus. Some discount her as simply a virgin who conceived without “knowing” a man, while others elevate her to sainthood or a quazi-Goddess.

What we know about Mary is from two main gospels Luke 1 and Matthew 1.

Mary was an ordinary Jewish girl whom God saw. Her faith was in the promises of God contained in the Old Testament scriptures. When called by God, she believed. Mary was given the responsibility to be God’s caretaker on earth to nurture, guide and teach Jesus the ways of man until his purpose on this earth was fulfilled. Mary was the way from God to man but Mary cannot save anyone or forgive sin.

Only Jesus does that.

Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No man comes to the Father but through Him. (John 14:6) – RTM

Shotgun Politics

I see democrats on television calling the Trump Administration “chaotic” because of the manner in which various agencies operate and the confusion being sown on the American people by democratic backed operatives.

If it wasn’t so deadly serious it might be comical to watch and democratic “lawbreakers” foster hate and anger against official federal law enforcement agencies who are doing what they are mandated to do “uphold the laws of the United States” under the Constitution.

From January 20^th, 2025 democratic lawmakers have gone to a full blockage of every action being taken by President Trump, while deflecting all blame away from them. This organized resistance is simply a continuation of the seditious nature of the actions of Democratic Party politicians.

During critical voting to keep the government open Democrats banded together in open defiance which brought the government to a full scale shutdown. Then to make matters worse (they did) Democrats voted repeatedly to keep the government shutdown, affecting families across the nation.

Instead of going to work on fixing, changing or repealing laws that do not serve the interests of American people, democratic lawmakers actually became full scale lawbreakers and encouraged paid protesters to do the same, some even saying it was their duty to undermine President Trump. (It is not, nor was it ever.) This shotgun approach to democratic politics is turning into a scattered approach to confuse American voters, who see the chaos caused by democrat politicians acting only on their self-interests.

It is not the duty of Congress to oppose the President, nor to influence (threat, pressure or intimidate) the Supreme Court. It is the duty of Congress to write laws that promote the safety and welfare of Americans and to secure national sovereignty.

It is the duty of American voters to elect candidates to public office who make their lives better and to remove those from office who do not.

When you listen to the confusion (smoke and mirrors) of the political left you will hear that the sky is falling and it’s because of President Trump.

When you watch what President Trump is accomplishing for our nation and its people the story is entirely different.

American strength is projected across the globe promoting peace.

The war on drugs is being executed militarily.

Unlawful entry of migrants has stopped and the removal of those not even supposed to be here is proceeding with precision.

Civil unrest is being tackled with cooperation from federal, state and local law enforcement with massive military support from the National Guard pool, even while local politicians clearly stand in the way for political purposes.

Remember, those who stand in front of a military skirmish line are considered “the enemy”. – RTM

On Draining the Swamp

I remember one of Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign promises “I’m going to drain the swamp in D.C” (loosely paraphrased). Although I had no idea what or how big that swamp was, I voted for cleaning it out.

When I expected Trump to pull the plug and like a huge bathtub, the swamp would simply drain, it didn’t. In fact there were creatures and debris blocking the proverbial drain. Not only that, but they were fighting back, tooth and nail trying to keep the drain closed.

In the years since that initial campaign promise we’ve learned that any attempt to reform the government or it’s multitude of programs is met with fierce resistance from all sides. Even when you cut the head off a rattlesnake the body keeps thrashing about and although separated the head is still deadly.

I wish that during his administration when President Obama (former US Senator) and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton (former first lady & former US senator) used private servers and the wide open internet to communicate sensitive information off-line instead of secure government servers (as required by protocol) those same people would hold them accountable for putting national security at risk and the loosing of Hillary’s 34,000+ emails after scrubbing her equipment. Did they not realize that once something is put on the internet it never disappears or goes away due to the multiple internet server backups that take place daily, weekly or monthly?

I also wish that when government fraud, waste or abuse is uncovered (like when D.O.G.E. audited government agencies) the proverbial financial hole would be plugged, finances would cease to be paid out and that money recalled back into the government treasury while those responsible and those illegally receiving government funds would be held criminally liable and prosecuted.

When it is reported that President Trump is going after his political foes it is basically true because they are swimming around in the swamp he is draining. More importantly when wrongdoing is uncovered by DOJ investigations, should prosecution not follow?

Soldiers go into battle fully understanding that those beside them are the friendlies and those in front the enemy and they have the support of those behind. Be mindful of where you place yourself. – RTM

Migration Asylum and Assimilation

We are told that the United States is no longer friendly to migration by black or brown skinned people. That horse has been beaten to death, right?

We see federal ICE agents in the streets of our cities rounding up migrants for deportation, right?

We see National Guard troops in our cities protecting federal property and federal agents from swarms of paid protestors and gang-style mobs intent on interfering with federal agents going after the worst of the worst lawbreakers who are in this country illegally, right?

We see elected officials in unconstitutional “sanctuary cities and states” ordering federal agents to stay away, and to wear masks and at the same time ordering law enforcement officers not to assist ICE agents.

Let’s be clear our nation was built on the blood, sweat, tears and backs of migrants from races of many countries around the globe. Migration is not the problem. In fact migrants wishing to obtain work visas, or seeking permanent residency or tourist visas, and those seeking asylum are all welcome providing they do so legally and lawfully due to fear of impending harm or death threats or acts of violence.

Also to be clear immigrants who migrate into our country are expected to fully assimilate into the culture, customs and way of life in the United States and must pledge allegiance to our flag and renounce their allegiance to their former home country and that means diving into the melting pot, lotty, dotty and everybody. Get jobs, pay taxes and become educated to read, write and converse fundamentally in English.

The goal of U.S. Immigration Laws is to insure the orderly and lawful migration into this country and to keep out undesirable law breaking migrants.

I doubt that anybody can claim no foreign immigration status going back in their family tree. We may claim to be “native” to the state in which we were born, but alas ALL HUMANKIND CAME FROM THE MIDDLE EAST where God created the Garden of Eden and populated it with Adam and Eve (Read the book of Genesis).

It is the responsibility of every American citizen and elected officials to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States against ALL ENEMIES both foreign and domestic.

Problematic are agitators who pit race against race, men against men, women against women and families against families. Dissention is spiritual in nature and so long as good people do nothing, evil wins. The goal of evil is to use fear, intimidation and even death to stop what God has created and what HE is doing today spreading LOVE throughout the world so that EVERYONE will come to know Jesus and spend eternity with HIM in heaven (read John 3:16).

Christians must humble themselves before Almighty God in prayer, seek HIS face and pray, “His will be done, on earth as it is in heaven” (read Matthew 6:10). – RTM

He Is The President of the United States!

When I turned on the television yesterday there was a clip of The View where Whoopie complained that President “Trump verbally raped a woman journalist by calling her stupid. He’s the president of the United States?”

I guess in her view Trump’s comments were beneath the office of the presidency by berating this White House journalist in front of everyone was just not right. I agree in theory that publicly humiliating someone isn’t good optics, or right, but then I’m not Trump either.

What does come to mind are the elected officials in congress, federal, state and city officials, even clergy and news agents (anchors, reporters, journalists, writers, bloggers, etc.) who have publicly come out calling President Trump far worse over the past 12+ years?

How about fascist, wannabe king, Hitler, Nazi, unconstitutional, sexist, or racist, hater of brown-skinned and blacks, women and transgender people, sound familiar?

Is that how to address the elected President, leader of our nation and the free world?

Love him or hate him, President Trump deserves to be treated with respect, as do we all.

I may not agree with all of Trump’s words.

Trumps methods are not my methods.

Trump’s vision is not my vision.

However Trump’s results far exceed anything that I could have ever imagined and are exactly what I voted for.

Never before in the history of our nation has a president taken on the challenge of rebuilding our federal monstrosity of government, in the greatest attempt to a “do over” to serve the citizens of our country more effectively and more efficiently while battling public hostility attempting to seditiously take over and subvert the duties of the presidency he has sworn to uphold.

This president has put real teeth into the war on drugs AND the war on terror by equipping and unleashing military and law enforcement to WIN for the American people.

For all you naysayers out there – before you speak, blog, podcast or put pen to paper – take a moment to look in the mirror, hold out your pointy finger and CHECK YOURSELF first! – RTM

Good Shall Be Called Evil

It is evident by what we see on television, social media, and the internet and hear on radio broadcasts that biblical verses written thousands of years ago are relevant and true today in 2025.

Isaiah 5:20 ESV, “Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!”

2 Timothy 3:1-4 ESV, “But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God.”

Proverbs 16:25 ESV, “There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death.”

These are but a few of the verses in the bible that are being written for today’s news and for those unfamiliar with the Word of God it will spark unbelief and denial.

John 3:19 ESV, “And this is the judgment: the light as come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil.”

Listening to the world one is to believe that the nucleus of the family unit was not established by God, but is totally relational to individual choice. People are “marrying” same sex, animals, trees, the earth and whatever has entered their minds. They are willingly and wholeheartedly aligning themselves with satanic spirits and forces of evil.

John 8:44 ESV, “You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies”

1 Timothy 4:1-2 ESV, “Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons, through the insincerity of liars whose consciences are seared,”

Romans 12:9 ESV, “Let love be genuine. Abhor what is evil; hold fast to what is good.”

Romans 12:21 ESV, “Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.”

When elected officials actively call for military personnel to refuse to obey or question orders and for law enforcement officers to refuse to enforce or prevent from assisting other officers it is time to hold those officials accountable by the voters who elected them.

Romans 13:1-7 ESV, “Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval, for he is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God’s wrath on the wrongdoer. Therefore one must be in subjection, not only to avoid God’s wrath but also for the sake of conscience. …”

Resistance is to God’s authority.

Proverbs 3:7 ESV, “Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord, and turn away from evil.”

Proverbs 17:13 ESV, “If anyone returns evil for good, evil will not depart from his house.”

John 3:16 ESV, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

Soaring Above the Storms of Life

Cleanup completed. Food put away. My favorite part of these shindigs has been passed down to family and by now many have gone home myself included) after a huge Thanksgiving Dinner with family and friends. It’s time to settle down, relax and recompose.

My thoughts are on part of an interview I saw recently where Dr. David Jeremiah was asked how he does it, staying above the fray of the world around us. His answer was simple, “God has called HIS believers to be salt and light in a darkened world”. In particular Dr. Jeremiah said he was called to preach the “good news” of Jesus Christ’s saving grace so that everyone (the bible says ‘Whosoever’) is able to join God the Father “YHWH” in heaven when they leave this world behind.

We can see that the world is going to hell in a hand basket and fighting tooth and nail in order to get inside that hand basket. In the bible we are cautioned not to worry about tomorrow, because tomorrow has enough to worry about itself. So while it’s easy to get entangled in the “unfairness” and political strife of the everyday world around us, it’s important to keep the main thing, the main thing. That main thing is JESUS!

John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”

Now I don’t know about you but I believe that to be true and have staked my eternal soul, my life now and forever on the fact that God has forgiven my sins and when this life is over, it’s not really over but continues on throughout eternity and my destination is secure – heaven will be my home.

So this Thanksgiving Day I have decided to focus my writings on the eternal and let the temporal take care of itself, I will be writing on the word of God, which is life instead of the turmoil making today’s headlines.

In John 14:6, Jesus declares, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me”.

So do you know the way? I surely do……– RTM

Undermining the Presidency

Where in a Congressional Oath of Office (Senate or House) does it give authority to undermine the office or office holder of the presidency? Is it a constitutionally given right to elected officials that been passed from citizens during the election process or conferred and judicially upheld?

The meaning of UNDERMINE is to subvert or weaken insidiously or secretly.

To undermine means to make someone or something weaker or less effective, often in a secret or gradual way. For example, criticism can undermine a person’s confidence or authority. Encyclopedia Britannica Merriam-Webster

A recent broadcast on CNN was an interview where a member of congress said it was their congressional “duty to undermine President Trump”.

An unrelated act by the “Seditious Six” democratic members of congress (Sen Mark Kelly – AZ, Sen Elissa Slotkin – MI, Rep Jason Crow – CO, Rep Chris Deluzio – PA, Rep Chrissy Houlahan – PA, and Rep Maggie Goodlander – NH) urging members of the military to “refuse illegal orders,” in order to sew dissention and disorder in the ranks of the military.

Who can forget the disgraceful actions of then Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley as he chose to take orders from then House Speaker Nancy Pelosi instead of President Trump and even told Chinese military officials he would provide an early warning before an attack from the United States. Instead of being held accountable Milley was rewarded by President Biden’s autopen with an unconditional, blanket pardon.

There have been other elected/appointed government officials who have conspired at the highest levels in order to undermine President Trump and his administration but have yet to be held accountable.

During my 21+ years of military service (1967 – 1990) I have never given thought to whether any of the presidents under whom I served were of any particular political party or their orders were questionable. Like others wearing the uniforms of the U.S. military I only had to fall back on my Oath of Enlistment (each time I re-enlisted) and current federal and state laws.

I find the actions of every elected/appointed government official to be reprehensible when it adversely affects the health, safety and wellbeing of the citizenry as a whole of the United States to which they are beholding.

Accountability is everything! – RTM
