The Roar Rises. (Ernie Plumley)

Worship and the Word But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him”— these things God has revealed to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God. For who knows a person’s thoughts except the spirit of that person, which is in him? So also no one comprehends the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the things freely given us by God. And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who are spiritual. The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned. The spiritual person judges all things, but is himself to be judged by no one. “For who has understood the mind of the Lord so as to instruct him?” But we have the mind of Christ. 1 Corinthians 2:9-16 ESV https://youtu.be/du_K8ndxOHo

I don’t believe a word the Iranian “leader” says. Fox News: NEW: Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian avoids answering a direct question from Bret Baier about why Iran's supreme leader has not appeared on video addressing his people or President Trump. Pezeshkian instead shifted the blame toward "aggressors" who have threatened Iranian security, and claimed that Iran is the victim of terrorism, rather than a terrorist regime. https://x.com/foxnews/status/2103253155806925175

It sounds like the president of Iran is not being forthright. Fox News: "We did reach an agreement with your president... and based on that, we are willing and still wish to move forward." Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian claims Iran has "not closed the Strait of Hormuz" during an exclusive interview with Bret Baier on Special Report. Baier pressed Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian on what Iran is prepared to give up to reach a deal with the United States. Pezeshkian says Tehran still wants to move forward with an agreement. https://x.com/foxnews/status/2103247961106813292

I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed. For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the freedom and glory of the children of God. We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption to sonship, the redemption of our bodies. For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what they already have? But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.” Romans 8:18-25 NIV https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTyFMn3Nv

FBI Director: EVERY VICTIM COUNTS. EVERY FINGERPRINT COUNTS. EVERY DNA SAMPLE COUNTS. You cannot say you’re delivering a safer America if crimes — and the victims behind them — are erased from the equation. When I took this seat, Uniform Crime Reporting was at 84%. Today: 96%. We’re not stopping until it’s 100%. Every fingerprint. Every DNA sample. Every swab. Every piece of information gives law enforcement and prosecutors another tool to connect violent criminals to their crimes, their syndicates, and their trafficking organizations — and KEEP THEM OFF OUR STREETS. No victim gets erased. No statistic gets ignored. The mission isn’t done. We’re going to keep, keep, keep defending the homeland. -DKP 🇺🇸 https://x.com/fbidirectorkash/status/2103233637625860504

Homeland Security: OVER 260,000 TOTAL POUNDS OF COCAINE SEIZED IN OPERATION PACIFIC VIPER. Over the course of six days in the Eastern Pacific, the USCG Cutter Tampa seized more than 25,000 pounds of cocaine in three interdictions, bringing the total amount of cocaine seized in Operation Pacific Viper to more than 260,000 pounds. Under the leadership of President Trump and Secretary Mullin, we will continue to defeat the narco-terrorists and stop the flow of deadly drugs into our country. https://x.com/dhsgov/status/2103180577369473065

Jim Copenhaver, a true American Patriot, has passed away — A tremendous loss! More than two years ago in Butler, Pennsylvania, a crazed gunman attempted to stifle our America First Movement. Instead, Jim and so many other wonderful Patriots who love our Country, stood united in defense of our shared values of Freedom, Liberty, and Justice. After being wounded while protecting his family, Jim showed tremendous bravery, courageously continuing to FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT, and maintaining a positive spirit despite unimaginable hardships. His indelible legacy of love and devotion will forever endure. Our hearts and prayers are with the Copenhaver family, especially his incredible wife Marianne. God bless you all! President DONALD J. TRUMP Sep 24, 2026 at 4:09 PM

FBI Director: 3,300 KILOS OF FENTANYL SEIZED. Enough poison taken off the streets to kill a quarter BILLION Americans. This FBI — alongside our federal, state, local, and international partners — is attacking these networks from every direction: shutting down precursor pipelines, crushing trafficking operations, taking guns and criminals off our streets, and hunting down the thugs poisoning American communities. And here’s the message to the traffickers: we’re not slowing down. To the Angel Moms and Dads — your stories land with us. Your fight is our fight. There is no piece of information too small. Keep calling law enforcement. Keep giving us the intelligence. We will chase these networks down, dismantle them, and put these criminals behind bars. That’s the mission of this FBI. -DKP 🇺🇸 https://x.com/fbidirectorkash/status/2103229573831832014

Lara Trump: Republicans and Democrats view women very differently. The argument from the right: treating women as capable of making decisions means holding them accountable for their actions. The counterargument from the left: severe mental illness can affect a person’s ability to understand or control their actions and should be considered in determining criminal responsibility. Who has a higher view of women? Libby Emmons gives her thought on The Right View. https://truthsocial.com/@LaraTrump/117327841061109314

“Someday..you’ll realize the greatest prison was never your past..It was your inability to let it go..Stop punishing yourself for the doors that closed..the mistakes you can’t undo..the relationship that ended..and the opportunities you believe you lost…God never asked you to carry yesterday into tomorrow..Trust him completely..He is greater than your regrets..He is Lord over your failures, just as he is Lord over your victories..Nothing you have been through has escaped his hands…..Stop staring at what’s gone….So lift your head..Keep your faith..Trust his timing….” https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTyFMdVV1

The Biden-Harris Admin completely faceplanted with their mismanagement and poor oversight of the “Clean School Bus” Program that Congress created in 2021 with $5 billion in taxpayer funds to buy new electric and other school buses. Money was advanced in one example to a foreign business that then declared bankruptcy even though a massive quantity of the order was still not yet delivered. The Trump EPA, however, from DAY ONE, instituted a ZERO TOLERANCE policy towards ANY waste and abuse and that includes our reforms implemented since inheriting this deeply flawed program. From article: Less than 40% of electric school buses purchased under a multibillion-dollar Biden-era program have been delivered, new statistics released by the EPA Thursday reveal.   The slow pace of deliveries, coupled with concerns over the reliability of the EV buses, have prompted many school districts to pull out of the $5 billion “Clean School Bus Program,” for which some $2.7 billion in taxpayer funds has already been doled out — and almost exclusively on electric buses versus other alternative fuel vehicles.  “Instead of following Congress’ directives to effectively provide safe and reliable transportation for American school kids, the Biden-Harris administration rushed money out the door without enough thought or oversight,” Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin said in a statement.     “This carelessness resulted in 90% of the money going to ‘buy’ electric school buses; yet over 5 years later, there are very few tangible buses to show for it,” Zeldin continued. “In essence, American taxpayer dollars vanished into thin air, and our children were left without school buses.” https://nypost.com/2026/09/24/us-news/less-than-40-of-ev-school-buses-purchased-with-biden-era-epa-grants-have-been-delivered/ https://truthsocial.com/@epaleezeldin/117327610739533345

FBI Director: THREAT IDENTIFIED. ACTION TAKEN. FBI Jacksonville received a Threat-to-Life tip involving an alleged mass-shooting threat against a Clay County school. Our people moved FAST. Working with our state and local law enforcement partners, the information was immediately acted on, the individual was identified, and an arrest was made before any reported violence occurred. This is exactly what happens when law enforcement works together — intelligence moves, cops act, and our kids are protected. We will continue using every lawful tool and every partnership we have to find these threats and STOP them before they become tragedies. Great work by FBI Jacksonville and our partners in Green Cove Springs. -DKP 🇺🇸 https://x.com/i/status/2103174074612564025

Rep Jason Smith: The United States MUST win the AI race. Legitimate concerns about data centers are being exploited by foreign adversaries seeking to create division and sow chaos. These debates should happen between our neighbors. Instead, Communist China is abusing our tax code to manipulate public opinion as they work to undermine American AI infrastructure development and hurt our nation.

Last week, Rep. Tim Burchett chaired a House Oversight hearing on the $8 billion a year in federal homelessness funding. Los Angeles was the central example of that money disappearing. >HUD cut them off in June and froze another $220 million >The city’s own controller found LAHSA left $513 million of its FY2024 budget unspent >A federal judge forced the books open and investigators couldn’t fully account for $2.3 billion >The 2025 audit showed they paid contractors before anyone checked whether a single service actually happened >The data systems couldn’t match the spending to anyone on the street https://x.com/rothmus/status/2102913938975285350

Does socialist LA mayor say this because she knows there has been massive democrat fraud in California? Spencer Pratt: Karen Basura says we don't need an election because a Republican cannot win, and Xavier Basura is "already the governor". This is so revealing. This is what happens when you have one-party rule: these politicians take you for granted and don't even TRY to earn your vote. Becerra isn't even campaigning. If you democrats actually want your politicians to DO something for you, you need to hand them an L once in a while, to keep them honest so they actually TRY to earn your vote. More got done in LA in the few months that I was campaigning than in a decade or more, all because I put a little fear in this vile reptile. Now that there's no opposition in the race, that's over for LA, and voters will get nothing. It's just dumb and dumber. These scummy politicians feel entitled to your vote, they know you'll vote blue no matter who, and they can do the worst job imaginable, steal your tax dollars, let your cities rot and burn to the ground, knowing that you'll take it because of partisan allegiance and nice weather. The best thing for democrats in California is to hand a democrat just ONE loss, so 4 years from now they actually feel like they need to TRY and earn your vote. Then maybe you'll get a better crop of democrats. If you keep rewarding them with your vote, they'll keep getting worse and worse. https://x.com/spencerpratt/status/2102759107174220004

Homeland Security replied to a corrupt Rep Rashida Talib X post (below) with this comment: On September 20, ICE officers attempted a stop of a vehicle registered to a known criminal illegal alien with multiple alcohol related driving offenses who is also wanted in Guatemala for a drunk and disorderly charge, during a targeted enforcement operation in Grand Rapids, Michigan. As officers attempted the stop to confirm the identity of the driver, the driver of the vehicle fled at a high rate of speed. In the interest of public safety, ICE officers immediately discontinued the enforcement action. A short time later, officers saw smoke nearly half a mile from the attempted stop and discovered the vehicle had crashed into a tree and caught fire. Officers immediately attempted to render aid and extinguish the fire until the Grand Rapids Police Department and Fire Department arrived. The driver was pronounced dead at the scene by local officials. Officials also estimated that the suspect’s vehicle was traveling well over 100 miles per hour when the crash occurred.   Upon further investigation the driver of the vehicle was Mario David Coronado-Juarez and not the vehicle’s registered owner. Coronado-Juarez was an illegal alien from Guatemala who was previously removed by Border Patrol from the United States in 2021. He re-entered the country, a felony, at an unknown date and location.   Resisting officers and evading arrest is dangerous for our officers, illegal aliens, and the public. https://x.com/dhsgov/status/2103183319986765920 Ugly heart Talib comment: ICE killed another man. His name is Mario David Coronado Juarez. Mario lived and worked in Michigan for 7 years as a construction worker, sending money home to his kids in Guatemala. ICE pursued him in an unmarked car, causing a fatal car crash. These killings have to stop. #AbolishICE. https://x.com/reprashida/status/2103152516003226056
