Blasphemy in Leadership :: By Bill Wilson

There has been a severe backlash from Joe Biden’s declaration of Transgender Visibility Day on Resurrection Sunday, as well there should be. But this blasphemous act wasn’t just on Joe—much of the entire Democratic Party leadership joined in. They bear responsibility, too. But now that Christian America is pushing back, Joe is retreating, saying that we are “misinformed” and that he didn’t do it. So how many voting Americans are just going to believe that this most offensive act is “misinformation”?

He and his Democratic Party comrades have knowingly and willfully demeaned the most holy act of mankind—the death and resurrection of Christ, which provides the gift of eternal salvation to those who believe.

Joe even went so far as to ban “religious” Easter eggs at the annual White House Easter Egg Hunt. This is not just happening by chance. Biden and his party are against Judeo-Christian religion, and they are taking every opportunity to demonstrate it. On Good Friday, Biden issued a proclamation that, in part, said,

“I, JOSEPH R. BIDEN JR., President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim March 31, 2024, as Transgender Day of Visibility.”

In the following hours, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Vice President Kamala Harris both joined Biden, posting on social media their comments in favor of Transgender Visibility Day on Resurrection Sunday.

Then former president Donald Trump, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), and several others called out Biden. Both Biden and his Press Secretary doubled down, saying that disgruntled Christians were proffering misinformation. Karine Jean-Pierre said she was surprised at the misinformation surrounding this announcement because Transgender Visibility Day is the same every year and Easter Sunday changes dates every year. Biden went even further out on the limb by denying he ever made the proclamation.

On April 1, RealClearPolitics reporter Philip Melanchthon Wegmann reported Biden said, “I didn’t do that” and claimed that Speaker Mike Johnson, who criticized Biden for making the proclamation, is “thoroughly uninformed.” Well, Biden did do it, and Jean-Pierre and democratic leadership supported the proclamation.

These people are so tone-deaf and full of themselves that they would demean the work of Christ on the cross by purposely celebrating what the LORD and Christians consider not only a sin but an abomination. They even encouraged hoisting the “transgender” flag over US embassies.

They behave as is written in Isaiah 3:9, “The look on their faces testifies against them; they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it. Woe to them! They have brought evil upon themselves.”

They cast this evil toward all who recognize Christ as our King and Savior. They rub our noses in the stench of their wickedness with no consideration for our Holy Day. And it is not just one person. It is the entire leadership of the Democratic Party. I wonder how anyone claiming to be Christian can justify voting for those who support this unholy, offensive behavior.

Biden’s Marxist Plan to Enslave You :: By Bill Wilson

Joe Biden says he is going to increase taxes on corporations and billionaires in order to cut the federal deficit by three trillion dollars. He promised in his campaign reelection speech, disguised as a State of the Union address, that nobody making under $400,000 will pay a cent more in taxes. Since the speech, however, his cabinet members have been selling increased government spending and redistribution of wealth—total socialism.

This is a shell game being well-played by Biden and his gang. Tell Americans there will be only tax increases on corporations and the wealthy. Tell Americans there will be “investments” by the government, meaning increases in government spending at taxpayer expense.

Biden said in his speech,

“I signed a bipartisan deal to cut another trillion dollars in the next decade. It’s my goal to cut the federal deficit another $3 trillion by making big corporations and the very wealthy finally begin to pay their fair share. Look, I’m a capitalist. If you want to make or can make a million or millions of bucks, that’s great. Just pay your fair share in taxes. A fair tax code is how we invest in things that make this country great: healthcare, education, defense, and so much more…. It’s time to raise the corporate minimum tax to at least 21 percent–so every big corporation finally begins to pay their fair share.”

But Biden’s White House Council of Economic Advisers member Heather Boushey is saying all those new taxes will go to government spending increases, and she is outlining a blatant Marxist plan to do it.

On March 8’s Bloomberg “Balance of Power,” Boushey said,

“We need to make sure that the federal government has the resources that it needs to be able to do the things that it needs to do. And one of the priorities that the President is focused on is making sure that the Internal Revenue Service has the resources they need to literally enforce the laws on the books, let alone the new ideas that the President is bringing to the table…. Businesses have a lot of resources; we’ve also given them a lot of subsidies and supports to go out there and invest. So, we’re seeing this investment boom at the same time that we’ve been focusing on making sure that we’re enforcing the laws and raising taxes on, as the President likes to say, wealth and not work.”

She concluded:

“So, I remain convinced that if government has the resources that they need to do their job and businesses focus on investing in those industries that are so important to American competitiveness and American jobs and workers, we will continue to see that kind of economic growth.”

This is nothing short of a form of communism. Raise taxes. Increase government spending. Call it “investment.” Redistribute wealth. You want a job, you will bow to the gods of government, which take all and give little. It is alarming to see how fast freedom is handed over to tyranny and how little resistance there is to putting shackles on America.

Galatians 5:1 says, “Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ has made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.”

God is a God of freedom. Don’t take it for granted.
