I have the real Jesus. The one that doesn’t require me to throw out Proverbs or his teaching to support an Amoral Narcissist for President. Will not support King Herod. Or follow a fake Aaron worshipping the Golden Calf.

On Jan 20, I will join the new White House team on a short term basis as Senior Advisor for COVID response. These are relatively new plans. I will tweet separately about the great plans for some of the other things I have been working on while I do this.

Interested in space tourism and want a hype-free realistic assessment? Here you go! I dived deep into these companies, their plans, their technology, their credibility, and their schedule. Here's my schedule based on my Astralytical analysis.

This interview of @MichaelCohen212 by @emilyjanefox about Trump's White House exit plans is very worth your time. He also talks about what keeps people loyal to a man who has no loyalty or concern for others: vanityfair.com/news/2020/12/…

“Hand Them a S--t Pie So Gross They Will Choke on It”: Michael Cohen Predicts Trump’s Post-Presid...

The president’s former fixer knows his legal playbook—“I fucking wrote it”—and has some advice for the various parties pursuing cases against Trump, some of which rely on Cohen as a witness.

I found out what happened with all these QAnon nuts wanting to follow me all of a sudden. It's funny. It all started with an interview on Fox, where Lou Dobbs speaks to Sidney Powell, attorney for Michael Flynn and now also of Trump. youtube.com/watch?v=rNQNw6ec…

Televangelist Pat Robertson declares that Biden will be president and that Trump "lives in an alternate reality," "is very erratic," and should not run again in 2024: "You've had your day and it's time to move on."
