A Convention of States freedom rally will be held in Raleigh, North Carolina, on June 8 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., where there will be multiple speakers, including Convention of States Action (COSA) Co-Founder and President Mark Meckler. “This has never been done before in American history,” Meckler told The Epoch Times. “The ability to do it is contained within the second clause of Article V of the Constitution.” Article V gives states the power to call a Convention of States to propose amendments. It takes 34 states to call the convention and 38 to ratify any amendments that are proposed, Meckler said. Meckler, an attorney who specialized in technology law, has led several efforts to limit the federal government’s power.

A Culture That Celebrates Dismembering Children in the Womb Can’t Understand Why It’s Afflicted With Mass Shootings – American Faith
…Of course, Biden was only asking the “why” questions as a rhetorical maneuver so he could weigh in with his predictable answer: guns. The usual political and media suspects joined the chorus. The left claims firearms themselves are the cause, and anything short of their preferred policy prescription of so-called “universal background checks” and an “assault weapons ban” is “irresponsible and egregious.” But those who see through the left’s exploitation of this tragedy know there’s something much bigger going on here than a nefarious piece of hardware….

A second national discussion revolves around who actually is overseeing the current national catastrophe, given Biden’s frequent bewilderment and cognitive challenges.

During the sermon, Pastor explained the consequences of choosing life and death; he also explained why so many then and now choose death – they believe the LIE. It is very important to understand what that is and the nature of the choice that every living person must make.
