MISSOURI SMACKING THE CHICOMS DOWN - A CHILLING BODING FOR OUR FUTURE

Well, this makes a chilling precedent:  seizure of assets over unpaid debts.  

What the prophecies state will happen is that after the Irresponsibles take over next election cycle or finally finish off their Responsibles mortal enemy, the dollar will tank and the Chinese will declare fraud on the American fiat currency system and then will find it within their legal and moral purview (let alone, the "Might Makes Right" mentality), to come in and seize most, if not all of America (at least from Californication to Denver).

For every (political) action, there will be an equal and opposite reaction:  aka blowback:

Attorney General Andrew Bailey Secures Historic $24 Billion Judgment Against China for Unleashing the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Home 9 Press Release 9 Attorney General Andrew Bailey Secures Historic $24 Billion Judgment Against China for Unleashing the COVID-19 Pandemic.

JEFFERSON CITY Mo. – Today, Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey secured a historic $24 billion judgment against the Chinese Communist Party for unleashing the COVID-19 pandemic — six times more than the previous largest judgment in Missouri history.

“This is a landmark victory for Missouri and the United States in the fight to hold China accountable for unleashing COVID-19 on the world,” said Attorney General Bailey. “China refused to show up to court, but that doesn’t mean they get away with causing untold suffering and economic devastation. We intend to collect every penny by seizing Chinese-owned assets, including Missouri farmland.”

The Federal court ruled that Missouri “has established this claim of damages through evidence satisfactory to the court,” proving that China caused and exacerbated the COVID-19 pandemic, harming Missourians. The ruling follows former Attorney General Eric Schmitt’s 2020 lawsuit against the Chinese Communist Party for obstructing the production, purchase, and export of critical medical equipment, including PPE, during the pandemic.

Missouri will now move to collect the $24 billion judgment and, if necessary, will work with the Trump Administration to identify and seize Chinese-owned assets — a critical step in protecting Missouri’s economy and national security.

ONE INTERESTING GATE

 This is why I love history:

The Gate

This story I share in commemoration of the anniversary of the organization of the Relief Society. 

It was early summer, 1916, near Tabiona in eastern Utah. The ward relief society president, Esther Wagstaff, decided she wanted to pay a visit to those sisters who lived across the River who had been shut in by winter snows and bad roads. She asked one of her counselors to go with her, Elena Dorothy Lambert Michie. The two of them climbed in the wagon and began their ministering journey of love and duty. 

 As the day progressed, they traveled from sister to sister making their visits. Each time they came to a gate to someones property, Sister Michie would climb down, open it, wait for Sister Wagstaff to drive the wagon through, and then she would close it and climb back up in the wagon. Now, for a pioneer woman in her sixties that’s a chore, especially for one suffering from severe vericose veins. Elena or ‘Grandma Lena’ as her family referred to her, said, 

 Well, we turned homeward, and of course, there were the gates to go through again, but we didn’t talk of that.  I just climbed out of the wagon and opened each gate as we came to it, and when Sister Wagstaff had driven through I closed the gate again and got back into the wagon.  As we neared the last gate Sister Wagstaff said, “Hasn’t this been a satisfying day?  It has been so good to visit these sisters.”

 I said, “Yes, it’s been a wonderful day.  Now if we just didn’t have to open anymore gates!”

 To our amazement, the gate just ahead of us opened by itself.  The heavy piece of two by four that went from the gate into the gate posts moved by itself and the gate swung open.  I had dragged it open a few hours before.  Sister Wagstaff drove through.  One of us said in a whisper, “Let’s watch and see if it closes.”  We both turned around and watched as the gate swung shut and was fastened.

 I just can’t tell you how we felt.  I guess it was a miracle right before our eyes.  Those gates were heavy.  You know how they were made, poles and two by fours and barbed wire.  Well, we had done the best we could to do our duty.  Maybe our guardian angels were there to help.  I just don’t know.

The Lord once said, “I will go before your face. I will be on your right hand and on your left, and my Spirit shall be in your hearts, and mine angels round about you to bear you up.” (Doctrine and Covenants 84:88) And so they are!

THE PAY OF AN ENGINEER

 Remember the story of the engineer who asked for a payment of $10,000 and justified it as $1 to turn the screw and $9,999 to know which screw to turn?

Well, that famous engineer did exist, his name is Charles Proteus Steinmetz (1865-1923)

Once, their paths crossed with those of Henry Ford.

At Ford's River Rouge plant, there was a technical problem with a large generator, and the plant's electrical engineers couldn't figure out where the problem was.

Ford himself turned to Steinmetz for help.

When the "little giant" arrived at the factory, he refused any help and demanded a notebook, a pen, and a cot.

He spent two days and two nights in the factory, listening to the noise of the generator, while performing countless strange and complicated calculations.

Then, abruptly, he demanded that they bring him a ladder, a tape measure, and some blackboard chalk.

With considerable effort (given the hump and shoulder dysplasia he suffered from), he climbed the ladder until he reached the top of the generator.

Then, using the tape measure, he calculated a precise point on the surface of the enormous machine, where he made a mark with chalk.

He then climbed down the ladder and told the skeptical engineers surrounding him that they would have to remove the side plate, disassemble the generator coil, and remove 16 turns of wire, starting from the exact spot where he had made his chalk mark.

When the corrections were made, to the engineers' amazement, the generator was back to working perfectly.

Ford subsequently received a bill for ten thousand dollars, signed by Steinmetz of General Electric.

The famous American businessman returned it, acknowledging the excellent work done by the brilliant engineer of European origin, but respectfully asking for a more detailed invoice (ten thousand dollars was an astronomical sum at that time!).

Steinmetz complied with the request, returning the invoice, to which he added the following detail:

- Chalk mark on the generator: $1

- Know where to dial: $9,999

Total to pay: $10,000

The bill was paid. Silently, without protest, and without further delay.

The anecdote appears in a letter from Jack B. Scott to the editor of "Life" magazine, published on May 14, 1965. His father, Burt Scott, had been an employee of Henry Ford for many years.

AN EVILUTIONIST’S WORST NIGHTMARE

 Wow!!:

ASHLEY PHOSPHATE BEDS. AN EVOLUTIONIST'S WORST NIGHTMARE

The Ashley Phosphate Beds: Fossils of man, Dinosaur, Mammoth and Many Other Bones MIXED TOGETHER

One of the most fascinating fossil graveyard of all time is located in the southern United States. The Ashley Beds is an enormous phosphate graveyard that contains mixed remains of man with land and sea animals, notably dinosaurs, pleisosaurs, whales, sharks, rhinos, horses, mastodons, mammoths, porpoises, elephants, deer, pigs, dogs, and sheep. Basically, it shouldn't exist if evolution were true. NOT. AT. ALL.

This catalogue of fossils from the phosphate beds was given in the records of Major Edward Willis who displayed them at multiple expositions (Willis, “Fossils and Phosphate Specimens,” 1881.) 

Professor F.S. Holmes (paleontologist and curator of the College of Charleston’s Natural History Museum) described the fossil graveyard in a report to the Academy of Natural Sciences: 

“Remains of the hog, the horse and other animals of recent date, together with human bones mingled with the bones of the mastodon and extinct gigantic lizards.” 

There can be little doubt what extinct gigantic lizard he referenced for he pictured a hadrosaurus on the front of his 1870 book The Phosphate Rocks of South Carolina and captioned it: “Skeleton of a Fossil Lizard eighteen feet in Length.”  

Moreover, on page 31 he wrote, “It was in this Post-Pleiocene age, the period when the American Elephant, or Mammoth, the Mastodon, Rhinoceros, Megathereum, Hadrosaurus, and other gigantic quadrupeds roamed the Carolina forests, and repaired periodically to these Salt-lakes”… (p. 31.) 

The mixing of these remains was pell-mell throughout the roughly 40 square mile area of this deposit around Charleston, South Carolina. By one estimate, bones made up 65% of the extraordinary phosphate deposits in the region of the Ashley River basin before it was largely mined out. (Keener, J.C., The Garden of Eden and the Flood, 1901, p. 244.) 

Evolutionists have tried to propose a credible mechanism for mixing creatures from Cretaceous to Holocene in this strata, but none has been satisfactory and the matter has been expunged from current references to this site. (Watson, John Allen, Man, Dinosaurs, and  Mammals Together, 2001, p. 7.)

Sounds like a great big flood mixed all of these bones together. Wonder where that came from? Genesis perhaps?

ANGELIC MINISTRANTS OR THE ADJUSTMENT BUREAU?

 From the interwebz.  Too cool not to publish.  I am sure there are more than we can comprehend out there.  Yet, the godless will just shrug it off as a thing of the imagination:

I feel to share a personal story that very few people know - not a NDE but a guardian angel showing up at a critical moment. The details are absolutely nuts but the headline: I was fresh out of college, young and stupid, alone in a foreign country, being attacked by a big man in a remote forest, and I didn't know where I was. What can only be a guardian angel dressed up as a cab driver drove up into the forest - way off the road - in an actual cab in the middle of the night. He got out of the car with a smile on his face and asked me if I wanted a ride. For the record, I was on the ground, where my attacker was holding me, and the scene didn't look good, but the cabby didn't react to the scene at all, he just asked me (in English) if I wanted a ride. (Now you see why I never share this story - it doesn't sound real, it sounds like a fever dream). It absolutely happened, as fantastic as it sounds, and I was saved from a future that must have been so off my life plan that my guardian angel had to get creative. 

This was many years ago and it's still one of my most vivid memories that provides new insights all the time. Most recently I've been awed with a few points from that experience:

1 - I was given agency. The angel asked me if I wanted a ride, and allowed me to choose what would happen next (obviously I fought to get to the cab and got in!)

2- this angel only looked at me - didn't acknowledge in any way my attacker. The attacker held me, but I clawed away - he furiously chased me as I raced towards the cab, but stopped short at the cabby. He couldn't touch the man or get near him or the cab. He stood several feet away hurling the most disgusting insults and the cabby/angel was completely unfazed, never once looked at him or changed expression.

3 - I got in the cab and he drove me to safety - so he had some kind of corporal abilities? I don't know? So wild, right? He didn't say anything to me in the car, took me to where I was staying and just kept looking at me with a smile in the rearview mirror. 

I think of this story all the time. Gives me hope and faith that there's an order to our lives and our Heavenly Father intervenes if we want it when we're veering off the program, even dispatching an angel to drive a cab in the forest. (There were serious prayers being offered on my behalf while I had this overseas internship, and that probably helped too). Also I feel strength knowing that there are limits to the reach of evil. It might feel like Satan has full dominion here, but this experience tells me that's not true. Lastly, I'm empowered and humbled with the great responsibility of agency. I made a dumb decision to be where I was to be attacked in the first place, but thankfully that was not my life plan and I was offered an out if I wanted it. (For the record, I have NOT been rescued from many other hardships - this one must not have been part of my deal here). I could have still chosen to NOT take God's help and be left alone. Wonder how many times in my life I've chosen to pass on an angelic helping hand? This moment is so dramatic, my choice to accept help or not was life or death; most decisions don't carry that kind of immediacy but definitely impact our trajectory. We will likely be shocked when we see our life review and how involved our angels have been in guiding us quietly, and also how we've ignored the quiet interventions that might have saved us much sorrow.

This is outside the stated topic of this page a bit, but I hope it provides some faith and hope in a loving plan and safety net for us all - and I think that's kind of the point of talking about NDEs? Life has meaning, and death is NOT the end. (And maybe we'll get a cool guardian angel gig in the next life to drive a cab into a forest?)
