Continue the Statement Across the World - This is NOT My President: Not My Beliefs, Not My Values, Not My Voice

 

I will not be drawn into debate over this post. I am aware of the arguments of people who disagree with the statements below. I am posting this for all those who may be living in fear in this moment so you know you are not alone.

I want to share this piece in solidarity:

This is where I stand. The 45/47th President, his power hungry cronies taking positions of authority in his Cabinet and administration, and the majority of Republicans in Congress are a real and active threat to me, my way of life, and all or most of the people I love.

Some people are saying that we should give Trump a chance, that we should "work together" with him because he won the election and he is "everyone's president." This is my response:

•I will not forget how badly he and so many others treated former President Barack Obama for 8 years and Biden cleaning up his mess...lies about his legitimacy and hatred for his principles and his attempts to work within the system.

•I will not "work together" to privatize Medicare, cut Social Security and Medicaid.

•I will not "work together" to subvert the Constitution by illegitimately pushing unfit Cabinet nominees through on recess appointments without the advice and consent of the Senate.

•I will not "work together" to build a wall.

•I will not "work together" to persecute Muslims.

•I will not "work together" to shut out refugees from other countries who seek asylum.

•I will not "work together" to lower taxes on the 1% and increase taxes on the middle class and poor.

•I will not "work together" to help Trump use the Presidency to line his pockets and those of his family and cronies.

•I will not "work together" to weaken and demolish environmental protection.

•I will not "work together" to sell American lands, especially National Parks, to companies which then despoil those lands.

•I will not "work together" to enable the killing of whole species of animals just because they are predators, or inconvenient for a few, or because some people want to get their thrills killing them.

•I will not "work together" to remove civil rights from anyone.

•I will not "work together" to alienate countries that have been our allies for as long as I have been alive.

•I will not "work together" to slash funding for education.

•I will not "work together" to take basic assistance from people who are at the bottom of the socioeconomic ladder.

•I will not "work together" to get rid of common sense regulations on guns.

•I will not "work together" to eliminate the minimum wage.

•I will not "work together" to support so-called "Right To Work" laws, or undermine, weaken or destroy Unions in any way.

•I will not "work together" to suppress scientific research, be it on climate change, fracking, or any other issue where a majority of scientists agree that Trump and his supporters are wrong on the facts.

•I will not "work together" to criminalize abortion or restrict health care for women.

•I will not "work together" to increase the number of nations that have nuclear weapons.

•I will not "work together" to put even more "big money" into politics.

•I will not "work together" to violate the Geneva Convention.

•I will not "work together" to give the Ku Klux Klan, the Nazi Party and white supremacists a seat at the table, or to normalize their hatred.

•I will not "work together" to deny health care to people who need it.

•I will not "work together" to deny medical coverage to people on the basis of a "pre-existing condition."

•I will not "work together" to increase voter suppression.

•I will not "work together" to normalize tyranny.

•I will not “work together” to eliminate or reduce ethical oversight at any level of government.

•I will not "work together" with anyone who is, or admires, tyrants and dictators.

•I will not support anyone that thinks it's OK to put a pipeline to transport oil on Sacred Ground for Native Americans. And, it would run under the Missouri River, which provides drinking water for millions of people. An accident waiting to happen.

•I will not "work together" to legitimize racism, sexism, and authoritarianism.

This is my line, and I am drawing it.

•I WILL stand for honesty, love, respect for all living beings, and for the beating heart that is the center of Life itself.

•I WILL use my voice and my hands, to reach out to the uninformed, and to anyone who will LISTEN:

That "winning", "being great again", "rich" or even "beautiful" is nothing when others are sacrificed to glorify its existence.

Complementary Documentation to The Skull Ring Post

Palm Beach Post News

A South Florida lawyer says documents released under the Epstein Files Transparency Act suggest "occult activity" took place on the deceased Palm Beach financier's private island — a claim that mirrors conspiracy theories spreading online in the wake of the most recent upload.

Attorney Travis Walker, who filed a federal lawsuit against Jeffrey Epstein's estate in January on behalf of a woman identified as Jane Doe, declined to provide specifics but described the purported cult as religious, "sinister" and involving sex trafficking.

"It's definitely not Christianity," he said. "It's something different."

Walker said he intends to do "a deeper dive with regards to the actual activities that were ongoing" at the island as the lawsuit proceeds. He offered to share documents supporting the cult claims but had not done so by Feb. 6.

Attorney Jack Scarola, who has represented nearly 20 Epstein survivors and spent 18 years litigating cases against the pedophile, said he's never encountered evidence of religious occult practices.

What survivors need now is "total transparency and facts," he said. "Not speculation fueled by an appetite for sensationalism."

Did Epstein run a cult? What the files say

The word "occult" appears in the Epstein files only in relation to medical testing — specifically, occult blood testing, a routine medical procedure — not spiritual or religious practices.

However, conspiracy theories about Epstein and occult practices have proliferated online since the document release. They stem largely from a 2009 document that appears to contain the word "Baal," the name of an ancient Canaanite deity historically associated with child sacrifice.

The document is a JPMorgan internal memo showing a wire transfer request for an Epstein account. On a line typically reserved for bank information, the scanned text reads "Baal.name" followed by "Wachovia Bank."

Social media users quickly claimed this was evidence that Epstein had named a bank account after Baal, suggesting occult worship. But others concluded that "baal.name" was most likely "bank name," erroneously transposed during document scanning.

Conspiracy theorists have pointed to other details in the Epstein files as evidence of the occult. One email exchange suggests Epstein had three pieces of Kiswa — the sacred black and gold cloth that covers Islam's holiest shrine in Mecca, Saudi Arabia — shipped to the him in 2017. The files don't explain why Epstein sought the items or what he did with them.

Rick Alan Ross, who has studied cults for four decades, said claims of satanic and occult practices tied to sexual abuse have frequently proven baseless, including during the "Satanic Panic" of the 1980s.

"Over the past 40 years, claims that I have received concerning destructive satanic and occult practices have overwhelmingly lacked any objective evidence and instead relied upon anecdotal stories," said Ross, founder of the Cult Education Institute.

While Epstein may have used coercive control techniques to manipulate victims — including social isolation, gaslighting and control of information — Ross said he has seen no evidence Epstein ran a religious cult "though there are most probably aspects of his ongoing manipulation, which may have been 'cult like.'"

Law enforcement investigators have described Epstein's sex-trafficking operation as "cultlike" in its structure, resembling a pyramid scheme where victims were recruited and then became recruiters themselves. However, no agency has indicated Epstein ran an actual religious or ideological cult.

This is what I know. Over 1000 young girls were taken by Epstein during his ongoing trafficking activities. Many have come out and told their story. The government has been slow, extremely show, in dealing with this man since, 2008 and possible before. Many of the men involved have already been identified and brought to justice in some way. NONE of those under this president has been allowed to be identified and prosecuted.  

I've read the book by Virginia Giuffre. It is available on Book Readers Heaven...

Whether or not a religious being was involved is, to me, irrelevant... We DO KNOW THAT MANY MEN WERE USING AND ABUSING YOUNG GIRLS AS BROUGHT TO THEM BY EPSTEIN AND HIS PIMP. EVIL IS EVIL AND DOES NOT NECESSARILY HAVE TO HAVE A RELIGIOUS CONNECTION TO HAVE IT "CLAIMED" TO BE... AS WE HAVE SEEN UNDER THIS ADMINISTRATION. 

Know Thyself - Open Memoir - Emergency Room Experience...

You know, folks, I realize at this point of my life, that I, for whatever reason, have learned all I need to know about myself--NOT! But, I do think that I have an edge--an advantage over many people. And that is that I've been a natural-born learner, a reader, and a logical evaluator... So naturally, that I know Myself--it is Me--the person I know who I am. I also know that the person I know as ME oftentimes is never really shared in order to relate to others... Much of that is my fault at this time. But the reason I withhold myself is because nobody wants or is able to actually listen...

Like the song, people these days are talking without hearing and people listening without speaking. Indeed the world has created this environment of communication that is now so stifled, that it allowed a small minority to decide it was time to take action to--control that silent world and take it for their own...

And it is going on right now! But slowly, there are small rays of sunshine coming through through people speaking out, whether in actual protests, or in individual situations and conversations... I found myself in such a situation beginning Monday and is still going on as of today. I wanted to document, to share my thoughts because I know, especially after these past few days, that something is even more wrong than we can identify and try to "fix"... Right now, even though Jesus asks it of us, we are being prevented from loving our neighbors in both concept, but more importantly in reality...

I don't know how many pages/posts this will take, but as I thought about it, I knew that I had to start from the past to ensure what I am trying to reveal and share in my biography...

Being a reader all of my life and learning much from books and/or songs, somewhere along the line I learned and accepted a principle upon which I wanted to live my life. Know Thyself. (At the bottom of this post is just a few examples of the references that can be found to learn the early development of the concept which is now simply known as "Know Thyself." Two words, so simple to memorize. Yet, for many to actually understand and even more difficult to implement. We need to know and recognize if it is our fault and decide whether we want to do something about that fault. I'll be sharing one mistake I made which was amplified greatly and to my own detriment. Yet I acknowledged it and worked to move on... 

I am not like God, who declares to all - I AM and in the way of His Love, we all know exactly that it is True AND He Knows each of Us as a unique individual... I know He knows ME personally!

All of the children's songs I learned, loved, and memorized as a child, however, told me that very clearly. And accepted it as Truth... Reading books only served to strengthen and believe that Truth.

But I have also learned over many years that we really never know other people so well that we can believe that we can "allow" and "share" ourselves with others... At my age, it has dwindled down to 1. 

This video is older, but reflects exactly what you might call, the first on a List (we'll name is later). It is Selfishness. All of us, for our own protection and fear, start our lives selfish. If you are hungry or afraid, you have learned to trust Mommy or another individual to provide that needed security... But as the video illustrates, when as adults, we are still, often, selfish.  In the video, a majority of individuals in one community had all heard a danger warning that told them to find shelter. Only one man had actually prepared in advance for such an emergency. While, instead of trying to get to another shelter, all the neighbors turned on the one family, to the extent they destroyed the entrance, so that, if death came, they'd ALL die. Now, that's the highest level of selfishness possible--and just as crazy!

The majority of U.S. citizens recognized that, beginning in 2015, we somehow gained a pathological liar that was so bad that many kept count of the lies, as president. We watched the damage, especially the January 6th attack on the 2020 election... In the second term, the chaos, damage, and illegal actions began so quickly due to Project 2025 and big money providers behind the scenes, that we may never be able to even return to the point where we were when Biden left office. Trump has made a mockery of the presidency and not surprisingly succeeded in dividing the country severely. The damage to individual citizens ranged from catastrophic to even death by murder. The result of the unauthorized war attacks has ultimately, and finally, forced our allies to NOT be responsive for fear of a major world war, as well as to protect their own countries.

The administration has been relentless in attaching the balance of freedom of the United States as a diversified, fully functional country with ongoing and increasing successes in the world. Through cooperation and support when possible. Thousands of effigies of the president has been made  and publicly displayed across the world... Worse, though, is that his cult group has destroyed the prestige and respect of countries and people across the world. We are no longer the land of the Statue of Liberty which offered so much, including freedom.

Still worse is that many millions of our citizens were seduced by lies, including by religions figures, which by his second term, has done great harm to most of those who originally voted for the republican party representatives. The entire governmental structure is now corrupted and no longer servicing the United States of America.

___________________

Know Thyself (John 6:22-71) The first principle for saying, “No” to people-pleasing is to know human nature. The second principle is to know your own identity. Jesus refused to be made an earthly king because he knew who he was (John 6:15).

... a philosophical Delphic maxim which was inscribed upon the Temple of Apollo in the ancient Greek precinct of Delphi. The best-known of the Delphic maxims, it has been quoted and analyzed by numerous authors throughout history, and has been applied in many ways. Although traditionally attributed to the Seven Sages of Greece, or to the god Apollo himself, the inscription likely had its origin in a popular proverb.

Proverbs 27:17 (KJV)  Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend. 💡 Explanation This verse means that just as one piece of iron can be used to sharpen another, people can help improve one another through meaningful interaction, encouragement, and challenge.

"It belongs to all men to know themselves and think well [sōphronein]" (DK B116).[13][c] According to classicist Charles H. Kahn, this fragment echoes a traditional belief that "know thyself" had an essentially similar meaning to the second Delphic maxim, "nothing too much"; both sayings might be considered alternative ways of describing the virtue of sophrosyne (lit. "soundness of mind").

What a Difference a Day Makes... Where Is the World Headed? Revival Versus War??? - Open Memoir

 

Losing the time from nearly 2 weeks based upon an accidental fall, which requires pain medication to easily read and even sleep left me in shock when I got up, turned on the television and heard that Another bombing had been initiated by the president (and Israel).... against Iran... OMG! 

Got up to feed my cats and a song came to mind... What a difference a day makes...24 little hours... And I stopped... What is going on?! One insane man is being allowed to commit destruction all over the world! How and Why has this happened... From what a difference, my mind immediately turned to War! What is it Good For?!

Why is day-to-day decisions being made without early discussion and planning. Has the entire Republican Party gone crazy? I want to reach out, try to find somebody to talk to... commiserate on the destruction, the danger of those now serving in the military--especially as Trump announces that there could be some of our men who will be killed. 

Even this is crazy. How did a supposed movement toward a Christian nation a decade ago, suddenly become a murderous group of people who now support destruction, murder, theft, across the world... all for the power that is craved by those white men who had allowed financial gain to be their god--their lust for whatever they dream they must have...

To such an extent that deaths of anybody who affects those desires are of little or no concern! Death by murder, starvation, lack of medical support, and so much more is merely an "accident of war..."

A War that has never been declared/approved via Congress!!!!!!!!!!

So what we have in charge of our country is a group of people, most of who were not vetted, approved and accepted for office, rather just placed in a position, such as the entire DOGE group by Trump. Nobody has been reference checked by an earlier FBI group... they just exist out there, buying planes for private activities, giving $50,000 bonuses for men who like to fight and murder and set them onto the streets of states within the United States... 

In the meantime, a former alcoholic newscaster has told long-term leaders of the military that they are too fat and get rid of all the women...it goes on... Then murder people on small ships in South America for which they have no evidence of who those people are, nor do they have approval to attack! Kidnapped a leader, steal oil and claim they are now in charge of another country... Then they move on to Iran, while totally ignoring Ukraine a country that the United States had formally committed to for their independent. Now this president cares less about anybody having independent, including those of us who live in America...

It is clear that the goal for Israel/U.S. power grabbers is to create a recreation area for the rich in GAZA... And then steal the natural resources from Africa, Greenland and any other country they determine has value to those who crave riches over anything else... 

Are these just my thoughts? No, And even if they were, I'm willing to listen to any SANE REASON WHY the United States Government has Gone wild without any real provocation from ANYBODY! Except to hide what is happening in the government itself!

Each day more and more people are speaking out about what is happening... Speaking out means nothing if there is nobody working to do anything! Yet we--Ok, I--cannot NOT speak out. I have lived a relatively good life and to watch it be torn apart for a madman's desires--or fear that his own involvement in even more sexual escapades than he's already been charged with--is resulting in hundreds of thousands of people being attacked. 

Let me be very specific. I watched all that was done by the Biden administration as they quietly dealt with infrastructure, medical issues and so much more, including Biden's work with our allies to assure we were with them... ONLY to have a cult-following of a liar, a conman be spewed so often that some thought it was actually true... Because, let's face it, what HAS the republican party done for INSIDE AMERICA? Infrastructure has been ignored until bridges started falling down, water has become so contaminated that children become ill from it... CORPORATIONS HAVE BEEN EATING US ALIVE WITH INCREASED PRICES WITHOUT ANY REGARD TO the people... May I remind everybody that Biden was the first president who actually worked with the Union representatives to move forward as needed...

Again, let me be clear. In my opinion, the government has been allowed to become less than a governing body. Picking and choosing of Constitutional rights has been permitted so much so that the United States has LOST MORE CHILDREN TO GUN FIRE THAN ANY OTHR COUNTRY IN THE WORLD!!! Do not even attempt to claim that gun control is non-existent and in great need!

If we really had a functioning government, there would be little disagreement except on priority and amount of allocations... I worked in administration of a land-grant university and was involved in budget planning for nearly 40 years... It was routine, mandatory, and required JUSTIFICATION AND ACCOUNTABILITY.  When did you last, other than Biden, listen to issues of these two major financial budgetary requirements...? When did you ever hear from one state agency that shared their material, annual report, or whatever methodology necessary to keep us fully informed as to the income from our taxes and what it was used for? For me? I've never received such information. Even though I knew it was required for the state-wide Board of Regents for West Virginia University...and, thus, more than likely from most state and federal agencies.... 

Have we become so complacent that there is no way to figure out exactly what has been destroyed by this administration? We know, for instance, that USAID, a charitable part of our country, was removed and all supplies burned by DOGE... Millions had died because of the retention of those dollars... But where did that money go....

Let's remember one thing... All that Trump has done since he got in office was attack, remove, destroy, withdraw support, and question legitimacy of the legal system--even though we KNOW that Obama was prevented from ADDING a supreme court justice while he was in office... The Senate leader refused to allow that appointment to come forward for action. At the same time, that same individual rode quickly to add republican supported justices during the first term. You may recall that more than one individual came forth to question the Kavanaugh appointment! (yes, the one who recently wrote that the return of tariff money was..."probably" not possible to we who paid for those tariffs...) There is every evidence that the republican party has ensured that criminal activities or what may be called political maneuvering or manipulation has been accomplished to ensure that we are now in the situation we are in...

And that brings me to once again point out just how hypocritical this administration is being in using the Christian religion as a "control point" for many living in the United States. Through lies, distortions, manipulation of truth, and outright fraud. I am just one person. If I can see it happening in front of my eyes, as a Christian, then, you can be sure that there are others who are also seeing it... Do not be deceived when certain groups of people are questions as being worthy of God's Love... Indeed, It is God's Truth that should be the guiding source in determining whether what is happening is really "of God..."

Take for instance the fact that Trump invited the president of El Salvador, with whom he made a bargain to pay for caging ICE captives that were to be sent to his country. Trump praised the man during a recent prayer group and had him speak. When did God ever ask us to turn away those in need or hungry?

From a purely secular standpoint, the United States and NATO decided to support Ukraine, a democratic nation. However, when Putin chose to invade them, there has been nothing but procrastination, delay, and questionable actions. All of us who watched as Russia assisted in the 2016 election through social media know that it was ultimately determined that Russian was involved, and documented. Yet, this and other personal interests of the Trump family had been inserted into the actions with both Russia and other countries where authoritarian leaders are willing to provide financial gain in return... Of course, the jet plate was the first "gift" which is now costing millions if not billions to retrofit...

When Christian Nationalist was formally announced, it merely verified what many of us saw happening. Children were being abused, guns were part of home life for purposes of "malitia" even though we have a formal police and military group... KKK was included in the group who attacked on January 6th... While Trump stated that in Virginia those who committed at least one murder and who marched saying "Jews" will not replace us." were also accepted... You know, folks, either you believe what Jesus says or your don't. That is your right in a Democracy with a formal constitution. However, when a political party says that those who come to America for asylum are not to be given help, instead claiming they are criminals of all types, mostly accused without formal police action, and, actually, falsify what is being said about people, often in a derogatory manner, then, all I can say is that, there is only one conclusion that can be made. Your religion is not mine which is based upon The Son of God, who Gave His Life... for Us... 

Create your own churches...share your hate with others who are haters... Our country allows that to happen... 

But do not lie to me and claim that your represent the God of All, the Creators of All Creations, the God of Truth, the God of Love... The Father of Jesus Christ. I believe I can say it without doubt that My God is the same God of people of all colors, races, religions and from all peoples around the world. You may choose another path to God... You may believe something other than what I believe... But, I can GUARANTEE that God is Truth, God IS NOT WEAK... Don't try to claim that the lies being spewed through anger, violence, murder, and criminal acts are representing God--because that is impossible... 

When anything and everything is done based upon the whim or this man or another...we know that an organization is out of control... No matter what organization...

When there is no plan of action that is explained, discussed, presented, and approved, routinely, we know that an organization, a country, is out of control...

When from minute to minute things change, lies are overturned to present new, other lies, that are now to be believed and accepted, we know that an organization is out of control.

And, yes, when polls show that the majority of people do not support all that is happening in the United States, we know that the republican part led by the president is out of control.

This is the latest day in my life, February 28, 2026, and there is no sight of change in the United States.

We must ask, will the United States return to what it once was?

Perhaps not even in my lifetime... The devastation of bombings alone and death of people, loss of housing, little food is resulting in deaths routinely... Allowing ICE to attempt to take over State rights is just plain wrong and certainly not what was planned even by red states...

Our only hope now is voting. Fight for rights for YOUR State!

God Bless
