From My Heart

     There is much happening in our country that the main-stream media is not covering. As a nation, we have relied upon the press to fairly and accurately keep the government honest!  But that has so dramatically changed in our nation and the media is nothing more than the propaganda arm of the liberals!  The media works hand-in-hand with the Progressive Liberal Left, so if there is news that makes the Conservative Right and true Republicans look good, you can be assured the media will not report it to the American people.

     One major developing story is the court ordered audits of the recent election results.  The nation watched the returns come in and it appeared President Trump had a commanding lead in all 50 states.  The Republicans were poised to take back the House and gain several new seats in the Senate.  Then, we woke up the next morning, and miraculously millions and millions of votes came in during the middle of the night, and all those newly discovered votes were for Biden and his fellow Democrats, allowing them to win almost every swing state.

     Well, the audits are beginning to come out now, and it does not look good for the Democrats.  Those two women in Georgia who were caught on video pulling bins out from under a table, that were filled with ballots, once everyone was “mysteriously” sent home for the night…have both been given a subpoena to appear before a court to testify and answer questions about those bins and the ballots that were in them.  Slowly but surely the corruption is being exposed.  The fraud is being uncovered in Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Georgia, Nevada, Arizona, Rhode Island, and even Massachusetts.

     Is any of this being reported in the NY Times, or on CNN?  No, because they do not want you to know the fraud being uncovered daily!  The very minute the election was called for Biden, the media launched an attack upon anyone who would dare to say the election was fraudulent.  If you even “thought” the election was rigged, you were branded a racist, right-wing conspiracy nut, bigoted, hatemonger!  One day after election day, the media started putting out the word that you were a “kook” if you thought there was fraud in the voting!  And they are still using that same narrative!

     Will anything change?  I doubt it seriously! But maybe a few folks who are going to be exposed for their role in the cheating will be made to pay a price.  Again, I doubt it, but we can hope! It seems like there is a perpetual two-tiered system of justice in America - one for Conservatives and one for Liberals.

     Have a great day and may the Lord bless you richly!

     Pastor Norris
