It is an historical fact that power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. This is precisely why God told the Israelites you do not want a King. The Israelites refused to take God’s advice that came through the Prophet Samuel, and they chose Saul as their King and suffered the consequences thereof. America, we do not need a King, because there is only one King, the King of glory, honor, and power: “Thou art worthy O Lord to receive glory, honour and power, for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.” (Revelation 4: 11). On July 1, 2024, the not so Supreme Court of the United States set in motion legal principles that potentially will allow Donald J. Trump to become King Trump validating Trump’s claim that he could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue and get away with it. Trump believed this when he was not President, and if Trump becomes President on November 5th, 2024, the Supreme Court on July 1, 2024, gave Trump legal permission to become King Trump. What a shame, because there is absolutely no shame in the not so Supreme Court’s White Privilege Game. More importantly, on November 5th, 2024, the world will know whether America is a multicultural democracy or a White Autocracy. God help US. America, there will always be White privilege threads and roots of Hitlerism and Mussolini’s doctrine, because of notions of European White privilege. Racism drives individuals insane. In the twenty-first century, we are still fighting the isms and schisms of the Civil War. The Supreme Court has absolutely no shame in its White Privilege game, buttressed by a misguided Black male, Justice Clarence Thomas, who does not understand that ice is ice, because all ice freezes at (32) and below degrees.
America, “A man’s gifts maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men.” (Proverbs 18: 16). Judging before obtaining all the facts is a dangerous life proposition. However, the empirical facts concerning the leadership mentality style of Donald J. Trump is recorded in (35,000) fact checked lies, two criminal convictions, and three pending criminal indictments. Trump’s MAGA Cult followers, know this: “For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work. But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.” (James 3: 16-18). Genuine wisdom comes from heaven, and not from the not so Supreme Court. The Supreme Court is sowing seeds of societal discord rather than societal unity based upon the principle that no one is above the law. It appears that the not so Supreme Court is carnal minded, rather than legal minded: “For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.” (Romans 8: 6-8). Therefore: “A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall not escape.” (Proverbs 19: 5). America, God is not fooled nor is He mocked, individuals reap what they sow, and Donald J. Trump has sown to the whirlwind. What makes an individual attractive according to the wisdom book, Proverbs, is kindness. Thus, “The desire of a man is his kindness, and a poor man is better than a liar.” (Proverbs 19: 22). On July 1st, 2024, The Not So Supreme Court canonized lying, without spiritually understanding that God hates: “A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood.” (Prov- AAAA erbs 6:17). Amen.

As September 13th rolls around, we extend our warmest birthday wishes to the creative powerhouse, Tyler Perry, a man whose indomitable spirit and groundbreaking work have left an indelible mark on the world of entertainment. With his multifaceted talents as an actor, playwright, screenwriter, producer, and director, Tyler Perry has not only entertained but also inspired audiences worldwide, particularly within the African-American community, where his influence and role have been nothing short of powerful. Born in New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1969, Tyler Perry’s journey to stardom was a path riddled with adversity. Raised in a turbulent household, he found refuge in writing, using it as a therapeutic outlet. This period of introspection gave rise to one of his most iconic creations, Madea, a vivacious, no-nonsense grandmother who would later become a beloved figure in Perry’s works, offering a unique blend of humor and profound life lessons. Despite facing numerous challenges, including rejection and financial struggles, Perry’s determination and unwavering belief in his abilities propelled him forward. In 1992, he staged his first play, “I Know I’ve Been Changed,” which, although met with limited success, was a pivotal moment in his career. Unfazed by initial setbacks, Perry continued to hone his craft, and by 1998, he had successfully produced a string of stage plays that showcased his storytelling prowess.
