The Classical Saturday Coffee Break & Prayer Revival

*****

Good morning boys and girls and everything in between. Before we enter the Prayer Revival just a few housekeeping matters to go over. (Rulz for those of you in Palmyra)

1) This is an open thread. Feel free to lurk, opine and/or bloviate.
2) Be kind, be nice. But don't be a patsy.
3) Running with sharp objects here? What are you, nuts?
4) Have a great weekend!

AoSHQ Weekly Prayer List

Please submit any prayer requests to me, “Annie’s Stew” at apaslo atsign hotmail dot com. Prayer requests are generally removed after four weeks unless we receive an update.
Prayer Requests:
8/25 – Grammie Winger posted that Rev is doing well, but she was diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer last week.
9/6 Update – grammie winger sent her love and how much the Horde has meant to her over the years. She said her time is being measured in days and weeks now, and that soon she will go to that place that Jesus has prepared for her. She said she will miss the group so much.
8/25 – BurtTC is dealing with a family matter and could use some prayers.
9/4 Update – BurtTC’s mother passed away. BurtTC asked for prayers for her family, who suffering the loss. Her soul is safe and at peace in heaven.
8/28 - Grumpy and Recalcitrant asks for prayers for Pixy Misa, who runs the morning tech thread. Pixy has been suffering from edema (water retention and swelling of the extremities). In addition to the swelling, there has been significant pain in both feet, and now one hand. Please pray that the doctors and nurses take this problem seriously. Pray that God guides their minds and hands in the diagnostic and treatment processes, so that Pixy may be restored to full health. Pray that He sustains Pixy through this health trial.
9/13 Update – Pixy Misa posted that he is hugely improved. Between the BP medication and the skin cream, he reports being almost back to normal. He only noticed the problem now while climbing stairs, and then its just stiffness rather than actual pain.
9/5 – Inogame requested continued prayers for his wife. It seems like they may have two blessings on the way, not just one, since there seems to be a second heartbeat. In a few weeks they will know for sure. He asks for prayers that they be doubly blessed if the Lord wills it.
9/5 – Teresa in Fort Worth gave an update that she was very ill (throwing up), and was going to spend a day or two at the hospital while they figure out what is going on (and give her IVs due to dehydration). It doesn’t seem to be related to the cancer.
9/7 Update – Teresa still cannot keep solid food down. The CT scan showed something odd (metallic) in her stomach, so she will have an MRI on 9/8.
9/6 – Tbodie sent an update on a son, who has pancreatic cancer at age 36. He just finished his sixth round of chemo. Please pray that the family will know that God is in control and that the son and daughter-in-law will know He is there for them.
9/6 – “Perfessor” Squirrel sent his thanks to the Horde for their prayers over the past few weeks, as he went through a difficult time at work. He announced he will be moving to a new job (at the same university) on 9/22. It will be similar work as before, but a different boss, and that is good.
9/6 – vmom deport deport deport asked for prayers for Sophia, age 12, who was still fighting for her life with a bullet in her brain after the trans school shooting in MN.
9/7 – Moki would be grateful for prayers for a nephew who just had a heart attack. He is 54 years old, and has 3 kids under age 5.
9/7 – GWB requested prayers for a neighbor who is suffering after multiple back surgeries and in a LOT of pain.
9/9 – Pookysgirl asked for prayers as Pooky has a procedure to hollow out his prostate on 9/23. They are not sure of the long-term implications of his acute kidney injury, but his kidneys are recovering. God has worked miracles to keep Pooky with them in the past, as an answer to many, many prayers.
9/13 Update – Pookysgirl reported that Pooky is on the mend. His kidneys are recovering, he is sleeping better, he has been more confident interacting with the kids. Prayers of thanks!
9/11 – D sent an update for Susan, his wife, and her battle with cancer: Thank you, everyone, again for your prayers for Susan. Her cancer markers went down at the last Dr visit, but she is back to having abdominal pain that is making it hard to eat right. They are trying to get her weight up and thank God for the good days they do have. The really good news is that she is able to walk around again without the fear of falling over.
9/23 Update – The pain has started coming back, so they went to the hospital and found a cyst. They are trying to determine if it is infected.
9/11 – Annie’s Stew asks for prayers of comfort for Charlie Kirk’s family (first and foremost), prayers for this country as we all grieve, and that God would reveal His will for us, as we move forward as individuals and as a country.
9/11 – Kindletot requested prayers for a friend named Wendy, who was diagnosed with stage III breast cancer. Please pray for healing and reassurance. Wendy is afraid of chemo, which hurt her friend as much as the cancer did.
9/13 – vmom deport deport deport asked for prayers for her daughter KTE to fully recover from the stomach bug that she has been suffering through.
9/18 – Taylor reported that WitchDoktor took his own life last week.
9/20 – Tonypete sent happy prayers for Will and Natalie, who were married on 9/19. May they continue to live God’s plan for themselves and remain as happy as they were on their wedding day.
9/20 – Accomack sent his thanks for the prayers for his wife. She was cleared of the parasites, but her liver has not returned to normal because of all the antibiotics. She has not been cleared to return to work, but she has insurance and union payouts, so this could go on for a while.
9/20 – Dash my lace wings asked for prayers for her mama. On 9/17, she fell and broke ribs. It was the second time in about 6 weeks, and much more painful than the last time.
9/20 – RedMindBlueState asked for prayers for the wife of a close friend. She is back in chemo for a recurrence of cancer. Please pray for her and her family.
9/21 – P asked for prayers for her brother, T, in New York. He already has stage 4 lung cancer. His car got totaled one night at 3 am, and when his wife was driving him to the insurance office the next day to report this, he felt so wobbly that she diverted to the ER, where they found out he’d had a stroke.
9/22 – C requested prayers for a friend whose mother passed away after years of dealing with dementia.
For submission guidelines and other relevant info, please contact Annie's Stew, who is managing the prayer list. You can contact her at apaslo at-sign hotmail dot com. If you see a prayer request posted in a thread comment, feel free to copy and paste it and e-mail it to Annie's Stew. She tries to keep up with the requests in the threads, but she's not here all of the time, so she may not see it unless you e-mail it to her. Please note: Prayer requests are generally removed after four weeks or so unless we receive an update.
9/26 - Legally Sufficient asked for prayers for her “Boss” as he has serious intestinal issues with testing upcoming.
2 Corinthians 4:8-9
We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair, persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed.

But a misanthropic humanitarian says it's ok since tea is a weak redheaded step sister of coffee.

Prayers up for those that need them but don't know it yet;
Prayers up for those who know they need them but haven't asked us for them;
Prayers up for those that pray alone in silence whose petitions are known only to God;
And bless all those that have sought Your wisdom, heard Your answers, and are trying to do Your will on this Earth!

Not really a prayer request, considering the struggles that many Hordians endure, but if you have a thought to spare.

Her Majesty and The Big Dummy head out to New Jersey this morning. They are scheduled to arrive on Tuesday for the quinquennial Morris and Essex KC show on Wednesday.

A tropical disturbance may develop and head toward the East Coast. I do not like the thought of them driving in the RV through the mountains of Tennessee and Virginia in wind and rain. I'm hoping they make the trip without incident.

Hail Mary, full of grace, blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

Saint Vincent de Paul, pray for us.

I have prayed the Rosary for the intentions of the Horde, both spoken and unspoken.

I want to thank the Horde for praying for my kid brother, "J", after he lost his job back in June. A few weeks ago, he had received two different job offers. He accepted the job that offered $13K/year more pay, and had a shorter commute.

Father of 3 young children with a 4th due in early October. Please pray for his recovery and strength for his wife. He has been a tremendous blessing to our church.

45 Good morning, NaCly - I share your pain regarding our Wildcats. I have identified college football as a false idols in my life. I assign it far too much importance and thus fail to maintain any humility when I watch it. I'm trying to do better but with all the recent changes to make it mostly about money, I may eventually decide to refocus my energy on something more important.

Anyway, hope you all have a wonderful day.

49 Amidst many cares at Chateau Lloyd we have had a remarkable event. My youngest, who was squarely in the crosshairs of the lockdowns, has struggled to move forward in life. Despite knowing that it was the administrators and government officials who wrecked her adolescence, she carries a lot of shame and guilt.

However, yesterday I came home from work to find a portrait of Jesus sitting next to my wife, drawn by my daughter. The story behind it is that she had a very vivid dream Thursday night, and it was simply that she was standing outside next to Jesus, who was looking past her intently at something. Without turning, he said simply: "What happened to you wasn't your fault."

This was so compelling that she woke up and drew the portrait from her perspective - Jesus gazing past the viewer, looking into the distance. She has struggled with her faith for a long time, but last week started attending the adult faith formation class ("Becoming Catholic" formerly RCIA), and really enjoyed it. That has been her first opportunity to get to know a group of young people face to face in years.

Have to get her to understand that I'm not following her around everywhere because I think she's infantile, but because pain drugs make you woozy and can drop you to the floor with one unfortunate move.

She has done so much for so many in her life; it breaks my heart that she has to spend her last years in such misery.

67 Amidst many cares at Chateau Lloyd we have had a remarkable event. My youngest, who was squarely in the crosshairs of the lockdowns, has struggled to move forward in life. ...

...she had a very vivid dream Thursday night, and it was simply that she was standing outside next to Jesus, who was looking past her intently at something. Without turning, he said simply: "What happened to you wasn't your fault."

This was so compelling that she woke up and drew the portrait from her perspective - Jesus gazing past the viewer, looking into the distance. She has struggled with her faith for a long time, but last week started attending the adult faith formation class ("Becoming Catholic" formerly RCIA), and really enjoyed it. That has been her first opportunity to get to know a group of young people face to face in years.

83 Good morning, y'all.

Here's a story that will restore your confidence in the American medical system.

My 93 y/o M-I-L left 93 years of Ohio living to stay with in CO for the duration about a month ago. We were going through her prescriptions to make sure we had everything straight. She takes sodium chloride tablets for low sodium. The pharmacy label from Ohio on one of her NaCl bottles it said this:

Patient name: M___ R___ (not my M-I-L)
Rx: Amphetamine 17 mg tablets
Instructions: Take one tablet every morning for attention deficit disorder.

The bottle was labeled 'Sodium Chloride' on the manufacturer's label, and they were definitely salt tablets. Obviously some pharmacy tech had sloppily applied the wrong label for the wrong patient on the wrong bottle. To make matters worse, these were meds she brought with her from an assisted living place in Ohio. Nice to know someone was looking out for her in OH.

I don't understand the Bondi-hate, either. If you're a fan of Pres. Trump, and looking for affirmation from the Lefty media, you're not going to find it. Yes, many of the Federal district judges are acting like lunatics, but they are repeatedly getting slapped-down by the U.S. Supreme Court.

The violence and deranged rhetoric we're getting from the Democrat (i.e., Commie) politicians and their allies is not coming from a position of strength. They are desperate and know that they are loosing. President Trump has cut-off their flow of money, and deporting the illegals.

It is also helpful to realize that we do not have an infinite supply of flawless people who can readily be plugged into a job.

I think a lot of the hate against her is performative. Trump used to be an outcast, and those who supported him had huge audiences.

Now he's been mainstreamed, and content creators have to create their own brands. Being for Trump is no longer enough, so they compete with each other to see who can out-Trump Trump.

Right now they're baying for mass arrests without any concern for rolling up networks or getting convictions. They look at J6 and wonder why we can't do that, and the answer is that we are not completely corrupt and willing to send innocent people to jail.

We're supposed to be the good guys, yet the same people who are lauding Charlie Kirk are advocating leftist-style sweeps. I'm totally burned out on these people slamming their spoons on their high chair and demanding Trump do this or that, or claiming NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE!1!

Years ago I was an RCIA sponsor, and one of the questions that we were all asked was how we would react if we died at that moment? What would we say to Jesus?

Lots of deep introspection from the college kids, but for me the issue was simply whether my family would be taken care of without me. That's still the case.

Obviously, I also want to experience more things, particularly watching the grandkids grow up, maybe see my other daughters married with kids of their own, but that is not my decision. So I try to always keep up on insurance and make sure people know where important documents are. The brush I had with death in 2019 was helpful in that respect.

127 Amelia Earhart was actually born John (Jack) Klugmann in 1897 in Kansas but transitioned to become a woman as he always felt he was born that way and blazed a new trail in woman's aviation before being captured by the Japanese and used as a comfort woman in Korea in the 1930's and 1940's.

Jack Klugman, the actor, was a distant relative.

The fact that you can't discern a strategy does not mean the strategy does not exist.

Many people make this mistake.

I see a very deliberate process, one focused on constant pressure rather than winning the news cycle.

Also: the virtue of the Sword of Damocles is that it hangs. When it falls, it is no longer a threat.

A drip drip strategy also defuses the hyperbole of totalitarianism. It makes indictments old news. When Hillary is finally charged, people will shrug because it's been talked about for so long.

144 >>I don't want to see her gone but there is an arrest gap.
People other than Comey need to be indicted.
Antifa needs to be arrested every time they pop their heads up (Portland).
People online calling for murder need to be arrested (Olbermann, Destiny).

People in antifa were arrested last night. 3 women were arrested for stalking and doxxing ICE agents and they supposedly seized phones and computers and are looking at digital footprints. The msm is not going to report this stuff for obvious reasons. You've got to look for other sources. Follow Andy Ngo on X if you want antifa updates.

Other people in the Russia collusion conspiracy are being looked but unless you are running a corrupt investigation and leaking to drive narratives, Democrats, what's happening behind the scenes is unknown. Nobody really knew about Comey's pending indictments until hours before they dropped.

I believe they are trying to build a conspiracy case against the people Miller named last night and possibly more people. But I don't expect them to keep my abreast of every move they make because that would be stupid and ultimately counterproductive. Waiting sucks, doesn't nothing is happening.

Lots of tension within Communism. It's interesting that National Socialism is considered of the right, when it is just rebranded Stalinism - Communism based on nationality.

It was obvious that national feeling surpassed class consciousness. Workers in England were not going to strike in solidarity with workers in France, or Germany. But they would strike against their own elites.

For all that people invoke Nazis, most people don't know the first thing about them.

There is a 100% chance that all the targets are aware that they are under investigation yet none of them says anything because they are working out their media strategy for when the indictment is filed.

Indictments don't work that way. First, you have to have a Trump loyalist in as district attorney. For better or worse, there are something like 94 US District Attorneys across the nation. Democrats have been shutting down getting any of these through until the Senate just recently changed the rules to prevent that. Second, in addition, like the POS DA in the Eastern District of VA that was preventing Comey from being indicted, Grassley in the Senate Judiciary is allowing the two blue slips policy to block Trump's preferred nominees in states where two Democrats are senators.

Old senatorial courtesy policy that has been abused by Democrats, like the filibuster, like nominations, etc.

List of DA's. Only the asterisks are Trump II appointees. https://tinyurl.com/5yxdd3kc Carets are acting DA's, often career staff.

So every federal charge has to go through a grand jury per US Constitution and must be in the district and place where the alleged crime occurred. Comey is being charged in ED of VA for lying because Covid had him videoing his testimony from home.

DoJ informs you normally if you are a target for grand jury because of the privilege of not testifying before one. Witnesses are often only given subpoenas because at least theoretically they have no privilege against testifying about charges related to other people. But really anyone that gets a grand jury subpoena needs to understand that a) they can compel your testimony, and b) if you mention something in your testimony that can allow you to be charged in the case at hand or later. Thus, hire a lawyer for advice even if a witness and not an official target. Questions about others are almost always something a witness has to testify about as they can compel you to testify under contempt of court power by offering you transactional or complete immunity for testimony. Again, devil in the details and lawyer needed to determine trap doors in such agreements.

FWIW, attorneys for targets and witnesses cannot enter the grand jury room.

Another thing is that the assassination of Charlie Kirk has completely stripped the Lefties of their self-asserted moral high ground. Millions of people with a functioning conscience saw video of many Lefties gleefully celebrating the death of a man just sitting in a chair talking. Kirk's assassination has been called a Christian martyrdom and I have come to the conclusion that is correct.

Interestingly, among the Catholic clergy that has talked about Kirk's assassination, Cardinal Dolan (not a "rad-trad" by any measure) spoke about being saddened and prompted to learn more about him. He later declared Kirk to be a "modern-day St. Peter." I think Cardinal Dolan meant that Charlie Kirk was an evangelist spreading the Good News of Jesus Christ to the pagans.

I agree so it is a good thing that we have JDV48 waiting in the wings to take the reins as well as all those young vibrant cabinet members working to implement the agenda.
There is so much going on at so many levels that it is impossible to know the extent of what the new management is accomplishing. Trump is winning these crazy court battles. Just this week, the foreign aid recissions were approved by the SC.

216 Another consideration with regards to our DoJ's motives; the judiciary they work within is highly corrupt and partisan. If indictments are not airtight, 100% perfect in every respect they'll be bounced.

Even with recorded evidence of Comey perjuring himself there's a pretty good chance the judiciary will let him off.

Federal system is different than state--in states, offenders can be prosecuted via information and/or grand juries. Federal prosecutions require a federal indictment via grand jury per the US Constitution itself. And those indictments have to come from the federal district where the crime is alleged to have occurred.

In most states, cops can pick someone up under a warrant, sweat them, and submit that to prosecutor who can give the go ahead to a judicial pretrial hearing to charge someone by information.

Fed's can't do that and in complicated cases, to build probable cause, you have to go through the grand jury system. FWIW, the Watergate grand juries were meeting for months before indictments were issued and they were still in operation two years AFTER Nixon had resigned investigating the small fry. If you care to read some old fascinating history, Nixon's Grand Jury testimony post presidency is available online. He testified after resignation about the whole Watergate era including politics then.

There is caselaw on what is called the nexus of the crime for interstate prosecutions. Smith had that problem as special prosecutor--he wanted to try Trump in DC but his Mar a Lago raid happened in FL which is how Judge Cannon was assigned to the confidential documents case rather than in DC where Trump's presidential documents were loaded up.

Nexus caselaw usually follows common sense as to where it occurred.

Comey's problem (and that of a judge trying to let him off) is that apparently DoJ has seven former employees that have stated on the record that Comey lied. Even a judge is not going to be able to dismiss that case with being at risk for having to do the trial all over again.

Instead look for subtler moves like jury selection in allowing biased lefties to serve or evidentiary motions.

But it is relatively easy to tack on additional charges in an amended indictment. If Comey sent or destroyed evidence over the wires aka internet, then you get into wire fraud charges. Nexus can be muddy in that case as the Servers with that information can be in the 'cloud'. So Comey in office destroying evidence of a conspiracy after being fired in 2016 (and that destruction was not known at the time), might be tried for something that was on servers in Utah.

At one time, during the Trump I administration, a special prosecutor and grand jury in Utah was impaneled. Purpose unknown as no indictments ensued.

' Even a judge is not going to be able to dismiss that case with being at risk for having to do the trial all over again.'

Unless the judge just decides to dismiss it without regard to the testimony to the guilt of the defendant.

260 Another thing is that the assassination of Charlie Kirk has completely stripped the Lefties of their self-asserted moral high ground.

Has a single one of them said publicly "Welp, I guess we're the baddies?" If so, I missed it.

263 >>I would agree. But it is interesting to what degree the 'career' DoJ staff is literally committing career suicide trying to keep even a minor indictment from coming down the tracks.

I would imagine many like Maya Song and Comey's SIL have been told they will be taken care of in the private sector if they play ball.

It was interesting to see Trump go after Microsoft hard for hiring Lisa Monaco. Seemed like a real shot across Microsoft's bow.

And DoJ can appeal to the 4th Circuit to reinstate charges. Basically the only way you can dismiss a case with prejudice is after a jury is impaneled and hears the prosecution's case. A judge can then entertain defense motions to dismiss but again, that is risky as appellate courts can reinstate the charges in a new trial.

Otherwise a sloppy dismissal is reversed by appellate courts and the trial judge has to do all the work over again. Sometimes, the appellate court can even assign the case to another judge to try if the behavior of the trial judge is especially egregious.

The risk is more subtle in Comey's case as the evidence is clearly there that he lied. And covering up such facts means obstruction.

266 What is good to see out of the DC deep state morass is that it looks like other FBI agents and bureaucrats are willing to talk. There's a great piece at the NY Post by James Gagliano a former field office head really ripping Comey a new one. If what JackStraw says is correct others are coming out, more than a few to save their own butts

I think if ODNI were to declassify all records and files of how the US government worked with Antifa and Trantifa groups around the world for the past 10 years, the results would absolutely shock you.

Too many of them I think. Plus, any government contractor like Microsux already has problems--like allowing Chicom software engineers to run the classified Azure cloud network for DoD aka DoW.

I think a lot of these clowns are going to find out they are suddenly radioactive like Perkins feels about Elias when they expelled him from the firm.

Don't see much of Glenn Simpson and Fusion peacocking around anymore either.

NEW: Kamala Harris appears to think she almost beat President Trump in the 2024 election, says it was the "closest presidential race in the 21st century."

"It's important to me that when history is written, that my voice be present."

Harris lost the Electoral College 312-226 and lost the popular vote by over 2 million votes.

272 @267 Jackstraw, not a surprise. As I recall the Clintons when they got into office got a lot of FBI files and put their people into nti important positions. While the FBI was insular before, it became insular and much more left beginning with Bubba and Hildabeast

273 Canada and the UK are lost to me. Much as I loved parts of both, will never again visit. Any country willing to recognize a group that wants me dead, that thinks women ae lesser beings undeserving of freedom, does not deserve to be part of the discussion. If their populace is not brave enough to step up and oust this evil regime, they deserve whatever happens.
The very reasons our brave forefathers left for a new world.

My pleasure as always. Huber also was investigating Uranium 1 and Killary's dealings with it. Shut down shop in 2020 with no indictments. Trump at the time called Huber a waste disposal for important government documents. By putting those documents under seal as grand jury investigations, it allowed DoJ to prevent normal release under FOIA.

Sometimes investigations are used at the Fed level to simply hide evidence of crimes under the seal of investigatory materials not to be released due to grand jury proceedings.

The DC Circuit seems to have some uniquely stupid and cartoonishly biased judges who just make things up to get headlines.

If that sort of thing spreads outside the beltway, there are various remedies for it, and at least some judges are aware that their reputation (and therefore legitimacy) has suffered immense damage.

There may be a few adults in the room who don't think going down in history as a legal idiot is worth saving Comey's bacon.

Remember, even the DC clowns were trying to stop policies, not spare specific people facing overwhelming evidence.
