Even if Florida legislators are able to agree to ditch OSHA, the process could take several years according to the report, citing the proposal sponsored by Republicans Sen Travis Hutson and Rep Ardian Zika.

The CDC Emergency Operation Center conveyed that this information is not collected” [I sense lawsuits...] • A new study from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis has identified an RNA molecule that suppresses prostate tumors. The drug, called (R)-9b, was developed to attack a different aspect of prostate cancer biology, knocking down expression of the androgen receptor overall rather than just blocking its ability to bind to testosterone or reducing overall testosterone levels in the body, as currently approved drugs do and keeps NXTAR (next to androgen receptor) from being suppressed

Good News November 5th, 2021 – November 12th, 2021 edition. As you scroll through the highlights, ask yourself if the Deep State were in charge, would this be allowed? Or would we even know about it? Also some news may not seem “good,” but it’s on the list because it is utterly fantastic it’s being exposed! • A civil action suit brought by VoterGA and Philip Singleon against the State of Georgia targeting the use of Dominion Voting Systems in the 2020 election has a hearing scheduled for November 22nd • The Patriots For Delaware election integrity team has discovered fraud in the 2020 election.

Kelly’s opposition to President Asterisk’s vaccine mandate may stem from the fact that she faces a tough reelection campaign in a solid red state where she will be facing off against her Atty Gen Derek Schmidt, who has already filed a lawsuit against the Biden administration • President of the Ultimate Fighting Championship, Dana White, continues to speak out against vaccine mandates, saying Americans shouldn’t be forced to get vaccinated.

At the request of my son, who recently had oral surgery, we had pancakes for lunch. I love making pancakes with the kids! It’s one of the rare times mom can stop adulting for a moment and tap into the creative energy bouncing around the room. The kids request add-ins and I oblige. Mini M&Ms? Um, yeah. Chocolate chips? I’d be disappointed if we didn’t. Cookies? That’s brilliant! I know what you’re probably thinking: Couldn’t you just enjoy the pancakes without all the add-ins? Maybe. But, why take the chance? Today I added something I haven’t tried before: peanut butter morsels and cinnamon morsels (not together mind you). Oh. My stars. It’s one of those moments where you close your eyes, the din fades, and you can almost hear Enya drifting in the background. Out of the two, I think the cinnamon ones shined the brightest. So why am I sharing this with you? Because sometimes we need to take a break in the middle of the day. Don’t wait for the weekend, don’t wait for the end of the day, don’t wait until all the chores are done, don’t wait for a holiday or for company or for a special occasion. Grab as many happy moments as you can. These are the speed bumps we need to slow us down.

Parenting, am I right?! 😃

The Red Sea – part 3 The more I read and reflect upon this Red Sea moment, the more layers get gently peeled away. Those moments that despair blankets and hope is quieted, are the circumstances that call down heaven-led miracles. The latest layer that peeled away for me revealed something that just struck me in quite a profound way. We know that there is a spiritual realm, however since this physical realm is what we know so keenly, the spiritual side of events can be easily overlooked. (We get a glimpse of this duality in the book of Job and in Daniel 10.) While the Red Sea crossing was a heavenly miracle for the Israelites, it was also an earthly judgement of Egypt. But, here’s where it gets interesting: it was a manifestation of the victorious outcome in the spiritual realm! For us, in the unseen world judgement has already been declared and God’s victory is realized. We are waiting on this fulfillment to be seen in the earthly realm. There are lessons to be learned from the Israelites who complained, who rebelled, who cast aspersions on God’s chosen leaders, doubting God every step of the way. It wasn’t a curious mind, it wasn’t those who pursued God’s truth, it wasn’t those who had some apprehension who missed out on The Promised Land. It was those who ignored God’s beckoning, those who deliberately disobeyed God’s instructions, those who mocked, sowed discord and those who didn’t trust Him who missed out. No matter how disastrous it looks in the rearview, no matter how unknown it looks ahead, no matter how our hearts grieve, no matter what –trust God.

The Red Sea – part 2 One of the points we can take away from the Red Sea crossing is that we’re not meant to face backward –where our enemies are in the throes of being destroyed. It’s about moving forward to a bright future promised by God. It might be a future that appears opaque to our eyes, yet we are called to trust. Like the Israelites, God is taking us places that are unfamiliar, often frightening. These trails may seem like we’re meandering without purpose through darkness, through storms, through repetitive tests. Still we should know He is in control. So when we feel downtrodden what should we do? Acknowledge that our help comes from the Lord, and believe that the same God Who delivered Job, Noah, Joseph, Moses, Joshua, Esther, Daniel, Ruth, Jonah (and so many others!) from adversity will also be faithful to shepherd us. We see God’s hand in who He picks to lead. Moses, a man with well-known shortcomings, was called to be the leader for such a time. Trump, a man with well-known shortcomings, has been called to lead for such a time as this. I don’t think it was in spite of; I think it’s because of their imperfections they were chosen. God delights in those who acknowledge they need Him –even when at first glimpse they appear to rebuff His plan. Our faith would be misplaced if we look to man to lead us; we must trust Him to use others for His purposes, and that includes commissioning us.

The Red Sea – part 1 I suspect many of us have been reflecting over the Red Sea crossing lately because one cannot ignore the parallels between that beautiful history, to what we are facing today. Like the Israelites, we find ourselves in a situation that is beyond our individual capabilities to solve. Like them, we are surrounded by an enemy who is bound to a dark force. We are facing seemingly insurmountable odds of breaking free from a corrupt system. Would this not be a moment that belongs to God? And do we not have a portion in this phase of history? We have been given an opportunity to crush an evil that stretches back thousands of years. I don’t know if our ancestors were presented with the possibility that we have, but without a doubt, all of it has culminated to this point. We are called to confront evil. Are you as deeply flattered and humbled as I am that God wants us here for these circumstances? We were made for such a time as this. We have been given divine distinction! Of course, we cannot do this alone. Seeking Him, understanding and submitting to His will, praying, believing and living for Him, will see us hand delivered by God. Unfortunately, some share the same laments as some of the Israelites. Like our spiritual ancestors, some have allowed their fear to blind them from truths, from God’s miracles. They refuse to believe that God is moved by the plight of His followers, assuming that we have somehow been abandoned, forgotten. Are we in danger of being contemptuous towards God? Yes, some folks are dangerously flirting with showing God disdain for what He’s working out for our good.

Good morning!
Good morning!

Something to note... Good news Friday has dropped every Friday since mid-May. Of course, some weeks there does seem to be more good news to report than other weeks. The news I compile for the drops averages 5 pages in length. There were some longer paragraphs in today’s drop, even so it was 9 pages long! I was researching and keeping the list updated every day for the last seven days -another new record. And I still didn’t even hit all my usual sources. I’ve been awake for a very long time, and I have not seen the kind of arrests, reports, and push back the way I have over the last several months. I’d also like to point out that some of these operations to catch criminals take place over years, and we’re just now seeing the results. Please don’t be discouraged in between drops: there are good things happening -all over the world, in every industry. Keep the faith, keep praying, choose hope over fear. Blessings to you!

Good News October 29th – November 5th, 2021 edition

• Russian analyst Igor Danchenko is the third person, and second in a two-month span, to face charges after being arrested in special counsel John Durham’s probe into the origins of the Russia investigation. Danchenko functioned as a source for Christopher Steele, a former British spy who was paid by Democrats to examine ties between Russia and Trump during the 2016 presidential campaign. The research was used by the FBI as it applied for and received surveillance warrants targeting a former Trump campaign aide • Fiona Hill, who is currently serving as a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution in Washington, and who was on Trump’s National Security Council, may be implicated soon as she is the one who apparently introduced Christopher Steele to Igor Danchenko. Hill then introduced Igor Danchenko to Michael Sussmann • Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe declassified documents that reveal former CIA Director John Brennan briefed Obama on Hillary Clinton’s purported plan to tie then-candidate Donald Trump to Russia as “a means of distracting the public from her use of a private email server” ahead of the 2016 presidential election • An analysis from a Los Angeles Times project to track national opinion surveys on the popularity of Vice President Kamala Harris reveals she is less popular than President Joe Biden and her last four predecessors. 51% had an unfavorable opinion • A new NBC poll shows that 71% believe the country is headed on the wrong track; and 54% disapprove of Biden's job performance • According to a November CIVIQS poll, support for Biden stands at 39% approval to 51% disapproval • A new Harvard Caps/Harris Poll asked registered voters if they would favor or oppose a $1.5 to $2 trillion dollar social spending bill that would be financed by increasing the deficit and tax increases: 58% opposed the costly measure; 56% also agreed that such a massive spending bill would increase inflation • Rasmussen Reports asked likely voters, “Has the U.S. economy gotten better or worse since Biden became president, or is the economy about the same?” A majority of 57% said the economy is worse • Only 181 people tuned in to the White House Channel to watch Biden's G20 speech • President Asterisk angrily called a report that the Justice Dept would give $450k per person payoffs to illegal immigrant families separated at the border garbage. ACLU Executive Director Anthony D. Romero told Fox News that the plan is very much in the works. "President Biden may not have been fully briefed about the actions of his very own Justice Department as it carefully deliberated and considered the crimes committed against thousands of families separated from their children as an intentional governmental policy," Romero said. So either: Biden is unaware of the deal and the progressives who dictate all policy through chief of staff Rob Klain are doing it on their own; Biden is lying; or Biden was told and forgot [thanks White Hats!]
