Eps 503 Reliable Sources

The ideological enforcer of MAGA-fascism in American higher education (just met with craven capitulation by Columbia and Brown University) is the Trump regime's Joint Task Force to Combat Anti-Semitism. Purporting to act on behalf of Jewish students, the Trump regime simultaneously attacks policies to promote campus diversity. This replicates the historical function of anti-Semitism—setting up Jews to take the hit for for the oppressive policies of (overwhelmingly) non-Jewish rulers. The perverse fascist pseudo-anti-fascism of the Trump regime has now become anti-Semitic pseudo-anti-anti-Semitism. This cynical feigned opposition to anti-Semitism is especially dangerous when actual anti-Semitism is very much in evidence—not least by the Trump regime itself, over and over! Yet the ever-more egregious manifestations of Jew-hatred are increasingly weaponized by the political right—and ignored or even normalized by the ostensible "left." In Episode 289 of the CounterVortex podcast, Bill Weinberg takes some encouragement from the growing ranks of Jewish voices breaking with the pro-Israel consensus to protest the Gaza genocide—while being clear in drawing the line against anti-Semitism.

MAGA-fascism and anti-Semitic pseudo-anti-anti-Semitism II

[Lyrics]

You studied expulsions, graves, the trains—
swore “never again,” then licensed chains.
If law says need, distinction, proportion, why
do bread and water fail, while children cry?
Why dam the lifelines, checkpoint by checkpoint—
how will you answer history’s point?


A child starves, and history repeats.
A mother falls, and silence eats.
A father’s breath—red smoke erased.
Justice weeps, its scales displaced.
Is this what you call right? No—this is זוועות.



Eyes glaze like winter glass;
an empty gut keeps turning knives.
Meals drift back to silent films—
color drained from living lives.
Anger tints my every breath;
I taste the metal of my chest.
He’s thinned to paper, cracked with thirst,
“جوعان…” he whispers.
There is no bread. There is no grace.
Only a room that will not pray.

سامحني يا روحي… سامحني.
أنا آسفة لأني جبتك على هالدنيا.

He suffered long, then darkened—still.
I know that I will follow soon.
Don’t you dare call this “justice.”
Name it what it is—זוועות.


A child starves, and history repeats.
A mother falls, and silence eats.
A father’s breath—red smoke erased.
Justice weeps, its scales displaced.
Is this what you call right? No—this is זוועות.



לִבִּי נִשְׁבָּר—לֹא כָּךְ שוֹמְרִים בִּטָּחוֹן.
אַכְזָבָה עֲמוּקָה מוּל מָצוֹר וְהַרְעָבָה.
זוועות אֵינָן מְדִינִיּוּת.
יְלָדִים אֵינָם מַטָּרָה.
דַּי לַמָּצוֹר; פִּתְּחוּ מַעֲבָרִים.
מַיִם וְלֶחֶם—עַכְשָׁו.
עַל הַמֶּמְשָׁלָה וְעַל הַפִּקּוּד—אַחֲרָיוּת מְלֵאָה.
לֹא בִּשְׁמֵנוּ.


Open the roads; let ambulances move.
Cease the siege; let ovens prove
flour remembers how to rise—
mercy, not a measured lie.
Humanitarian corridors now—
write law in bread and water’s vow.


No more sorrow—I choose love.
Teach these hands the loaf above;
let water learn our names again,
and loosen history’s iron chain.

Peace for Palestine—سلام، حرية.
Peace for Palestine—سلام، حرية.

Fear in America

As the Trump administration expands its anti-immigrant crusade to Chicago, the LMC speaks with freelance writer Hector Cervantes on how the threat of ICE and the National Guard affects the Windy City and how local residents fight back.

September 26th, 2025: ICE vs Chicago

Don't get emotionally involved or entangled in politics. See the playbook- ancient Rome- ancient Greece-  The 1st beast is many countries - the 2nd Beast is one man. External enemy positioning - Divided country- must have command on board. Command structure must not be faulty.  Must have loyalty to carry out orders foreign and Domestic.  Only happens before a Major engagement.  Pay attention to the protests- Hear them spiritually. September 30 2025  everything changes!

09 30 2025 The Nature of Life - Joel 3-Spirit of Offense

 - Reality- Not here. Mankind about to enter adulthood. Societies fall at their peak and is rebelling now. 
- God's promise to kingdoms- He has dispersed Israel many times for turning their backs. Kingdoms make their own laws and cherry pick the Word. US doing the same. Fractures make evil. Jeremiah says what we fear the most will come upon us. 
- Golden sky- People will change during this time. We'll be leaving and starting life. Earth births eternal beings. We want recognition. 
- Earth had permanent change in 1988 until 1994. Also in 2004. Philosophies, beliefs. Assaults on faith. Downfall in 2012 with misery due to Myans. Prophecy became unpopular. Bitter people. We were cured of setting dates until 2016. We must endure our kings we tend to deify. SHE is coming forward in a cruel way and put an end to the back and forth. SHE will turn policy on it's head with boldness. An answer that turns to fear. 
- Mark of the beast coming with change. Iniquity normalized. People don't want morals and standards. US and Israel will be most hated.
- Protests begin. New Age-rs feel isolated and push back seeking retribution. Treason. Business, travel halt. Entire cities will be subdued. All is falling into place. Earth will physically respond. Force grows the gulf. Massive consolidation of voices. Resources, no product. Word of God will be lost for a time. Paranoia will change us. Alien=foreign=angel. Ignorance can make you a casualty. 
- Majority of the Word of God is a warning. See both darkness and light to choose. We fight for those with same darkness. Eyes open. Hope someone glorifies Christ through you. They will come to you. We know what we live. Wisdom is the ability to use knowledge. Witness your Father's deliverance. Witnessing is enduring. We'll know we're delivered, even through others' seeing us down. They'll see us delivered too. We have no promise to see our fruit. Your love is a seed from God. Be who God sent here. He put us here now.
-Parallels of Joseph's story and us. We are meant to be looked on differently.
- Want to be an angel? A messenger? You are if you carry the message of the Gospel. Differences are choices and mortality. More steadfast in maturity. The darkness you have will try you. It's how we grow.. Don't let flesh be your downfall. You will be separated from it. Who will you be.
- Peter asked to be crucified upside down. Stephen asked not to hold it against those who stoned him.
