Good chat tonight everyone. God Bless. ❤️🙏

Clarence Thomas just declared that “consent of the governed” is the only legitimate source of government power.

“We The People can never legitimately consent to the violation of our God-given equality.”

“The Declaration made it clear.”

“The purpose of government is to protect our God-given unalienable rights.”

“It can be easy to forget 250 years later the courage it took for those 56 men to sign the Declaration.”

“Those men committed treason against the king, risking death at the hands of an empire far mightier than the newborn United States.”

“The ideas of the Declaration are so powerful that our nation could not coexist with the contradiction… of slavery.”

“Those ideas have been so powerful that they convinced our nation to finally end segregation.”

“They continue to be so powerful today that they have inspired people throughout the world to throw off the shackles of their own oppressors.”

“And it all began with our founders declaring in 1776… that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights.”

“That among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”

“We should also not forget the important sentence that follows.”

“That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.”

I do not care what anyone thinks about me for saying this today. Because President Trump deserves to hear it. And I am done waiting for the right moment. This is the right moment. President Trump, thank you. Not for a policy. Not for an executive order. Not for a rally or a speech or a headline. For something so much more personal than any of those things. Thank you for waking up every single morning at 79 years old, when staying in bed would have been so much easier. Thank you for skipping meals that went cold, for missing family moments that never came back, for traveling to countries most Americans cannot find on a map, for sitting in briefings before most of America opened its eyes, for carrying criticism that would have broken most people permanently, for getting back up every single time the world said stay down, for donating every single dollar of your salary, for giving up the most comfortable life imaginable to sit in the most uncomfortable chair on earth and carry the weight of 340 million people without once asking any of us to notice. You did not have to do any of this. You had everything…the money, the properties, the comfortable life, the peace…and you gave all of it away for a country that does not always stop to say thank you. And today I am stopping. Because I refuse to be part of that silence anymore.

Today, in front of every single American reading this, I want to say what most people feel but never actually say out loud. Thank you, President Trump, for everything you gave that we never asked for, for everything you carried that we never fully saw, for every morning you chose America over yourself. We see you. We feel it. And we are more grateful than words will ever fully capture. God bless you. God protect you. And God keep giving you the strength to carry what most of us could never lift.

2 Chronicles 7:11-22

New King James Version


11 Thus Solomon finished the house of the Lord and the king’s house; and Solomon successfully accomplished all that came into his heart to make in the house of the Lord and in his own house.
God’s Second Appearance to Solomon
12 Then the Lord appeared to Solomon by night, and said to him: “I have heard your prayer, and have chosen this place for Myself as a house of sacrifice. 13 When I shut up heaven and there is no rain, or command the locusts to devour the land, or send pestilence among My people, 14 if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land. 15 Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to prayer made in this place. 16 For now I have chosen and [a]sanctified this house, that My name may be there forever; and [b]My eyes and [c]My heart will be there perpetually. 17 As for you, if you walk before Me as your father David walked, and do according to all that I have commanded you, and if you keep My statutes and My judgments, 18 then I will establish the throne of your kingdom, as I covenanted with David your father, saying, ‘You shall not fail to have a man as ruler in Israel.’
19 “But if you turn away and forsake My statutes and My commandments which I have set before you, and go and serve other gods, and worship them, 20 then I will uproot them from My land which I have given them; and this house which I have [d]sanctified for My name I will cast out of My sight, and will make it a proverb and a byword among all peoples.
21 “And as for this [e]house, which [f]is exalted, everyone who passes by it will be astonished and say, ‘Why has the Lord done thus to this land and this house?’ 22 Then they will answer, ‘Because they forsook the Lord God of their fathers, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, and embraced other gods, and worshiped them and served them; therefore He has brought all this calamity on them.’ ”
