Dear Friends,
2 Timothy 1:7 reminds believers, “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” We can become overpowered by fear when we focus more on the power of the enemy than on the Spirit God has given us. Like Peter, we can lose sight of the Lord’s greatness when our souls become too disturbed by the wind and waves billowing around us (Matthew 14). When tempted to fear, may we reflect on the unwavering promises of God.
1. ITALY ELECTS ANTI-GLOBALIST PRIME MINISTER: On Sunday, Italians voted to elect firebrand nationalist Giorgia Meloni as Prime Minister. The White House said that Meloni’s win “was met with deep, if private, worry within President Joe Biden’s administration.” The quotes below reveal why globalists are absolutely terrified of Giorgia Meloni:
- “I am a woman! I am a mother! I am Italian! I am Christian! You won’t take it from me!”
- “Our main enemy today is the globalist drift of those who view identity and all its forms as an evil to overcome, and constantly ask to shift real power away from the people to supernational entities headed by supposedly enlightened elites.”
- “Let us be clear in our mind…we did not fight against and defeat communism in order to replace it with a new international regime, but to permit independent nation states once again to defend the freedom, identity, and sovereignty of their peoples.”
- “We will defend God, country, and family. Those things that disgust people so much. We will do it to defend our freedom. Because we will never be slaves and simple consumers at the mercy of financial speculators.”
- “That is our mission. That is why I came here today. Chesterton wrote, more than a century ago… ‘Fires will be kindled to testify that two and two make four. Swords will be drawn to prove that leaves are green in summer.’ That time has arrived. We are ready.”
- “Yes to natural families, no to the LGBT lobby, yes to sexual identity, no to gender ideology, yes to the culture of life, no to the abyss of death, no to the violence of Islam, yes to safer borders, no to mass immigration, yes to work for our people.”
Santiago Abascal, head of the Spanish nationalist party Vox, wrote, “Giorgia Meloni has shown the way for a proud, free Europe of sovereign nations.”
Ed. Note: Time will tell how much Meloni is actually able to push back against the globalist E.U. and to follow through on her campaign promises. For more, see Dr. Robert Malone’s article, “Defamation of Giorgia Meloni Refuted.”
2. FBI RAIDS HOME OF PRO-LIFE LEADER: The FBI sent 25-30 agents to apprehend Mark Houck, a Christian pro-life leader and father of seven, whose only crime was “protecting his son from an aggressive Planned Parenthood escort in downtown Philadelphia,” according to GiveSendGo. Houck’s wife said that FBI agents entered their home around 7 a.m. and, “The kids were all just screaming. It was all just very scary and traumatic. They had big, huge rifles pointed at Mark and pointed at me and kind of pointed throughout the house.”
Pennsylvania gubernatorial candidate and state Senator Doug Mastriano said, “They are absolutely trying to intimidate not just pro-lifers, but anyone on the political opposition…” Peter Bree of the Thomas Moore Society said, “Regular law-abiding citizens should not fear 20 heavily armed agents at their door to drag them out while trying to enjoy their morning coffee. This is outrageous.”
Representative Jim Jordan (R-OH) said, “It’s just a continuation of this political nature. Labeling everyone an extremist to satisfy the Biden narrative…Time after time, we see where they’re so aggressive in going after these ‘extremist domestic violence’ cases all over the country. And that’s how they view people who are pro-life, showing up and praying in front of abortion clinics. They view them as extremists when obviously this family is just a good family.”
3. LEFT CONTINUES TAKEOVER OF ELECTIONS: Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell has endoresed the “Electoral Count Reform and Presidential Transition Improvement Act of 2022,” drafted by Senators Collins and Manchin but opposed by President Trump. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX), the only Senator on the 15-member Senate Rules Committee to vote against it, warned, “There are serious constitutional questions in the bill,” and the bill “takes a significant step down that road of putting the federal government in charge of elections.” Cruz said, “I don’t believe senators from this side of the aisle should be supporting a bill that enhances the federalization of elections and reduces the ability of Congress to respond to the very serious problem of voter fraud. I think this bill does that, and so I intend to oppose it.”
All Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee voted to allow non-citizens to vote in elections. The Gateway Pundit commented, “They can’t win if they don’t cheat…They want open elections to match their open borders. They TRULY hate this country.”
Democrats have already spent $11 million on Secretary of State races and “will more than double” that spending by November 8.
4. CPUSA ECHOES BIDEN’S RHETORIC: In a recent article, the Communist Party USA appeared to echo Democratic Party rhetoric: “In just a few weeks, voters will decide who controls Congress. Will it be those who outlawed abortion, blocked voting rights, and now want to repeal gay marriage, or will the forces of democracy win a working majority? This election will decide whether the child tax credit is restored and if the country will begin to seriously address climate change. And most importantly, what happens on November 8 will determine if the PRO-ACT (Protecting the Right to Organize Act) is passed and with it, labor’s ability to win union elections.”
The article further claimed, “As the January 6 hearings revealed, the problem is a whole lot bigger than one person: it’s the MAGA movement as a whole, a movement Mr. Biden recently characterized as ‘semi-fascist.’ And Biden was right: they’re fascists; in fact, there ain’t no ‘semi’ about it…Democracy itself is on the ballot.”
5. MORE ELECTION NEWS: Former Press Secretary Jen Psaki said that Democrats will lose in November if the midterms are a “referendum” on Biden, but they will win if the focus is on the “most extreme” party.
Republican Senator Mitt Romney has refused to endorse fellow Utah Senator Mike Lee in his race against Democrat-endorsed Evan McMullin. In 2018, Donald Trump endorsed Mitt Romney in the GOP Senate primary over the more conservative Mike Kennedy.
6. WHO WAS BEHIND THE SABOTAGE OF RUSSIA’S NORD STREAM PIPELINES? Four mysterious underwater explosions crippled Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2, the gas pipelines linking Russia to Germany. Geopolitical analyst Joel Skousen comments, “The gas supply to Europe has been completely shut down now. And it is my belief…that the Western Deep State did this. First of all, only governments can do those kinds of deep underwater explosives. So this had to either be the Russian government or the West, and I think it’s the West. Here’s why. The mood was turning against sanctions in Germany because they’re looking for a very frigid winter without enough gas supplies.”
Skousen continues, “The German people were going to demand the government release the sanctions, the globalists didn’t want this, and that’s why I think they sabotaged the pipeline so that it does away with any German motive to release the sanctions.”
In related news, four occupied regions of Ukraine “voted” to join Russia, with Russian soldiers in some areas going house to house and ordering people to the polls. The impossibly high percentages included 99% of Donetsk, 98% of Luhansk, and 93% of Zaporizhzhia. Following the sham referendums, Vladimir Putin announced he had annexxed the four regions, which make up roughly 18% of Ukraine’s land.
Ed. Note: While the Deep State has been pushing for war to promote its own agenda, it’s critical to understand that Russia’s leaders (including Vladimir Putin) are still very much Communist and are no friends of freedom. Soviet defector Anatoly Golitsyn warned the West of what was coming both before and after the phony fall of the Soviet Union in his books, “The Perestroika Deception” (1998) and “New Lies for Old” (1984).
7. CALIFORNIA APPROVES RADICAL TRANSGENDER BILL: California Governor Gavin Newsom signed Senate Bill 107 (AB 2218), making California a transgender state of “refuge” and funding clinics that provide drugs and surgeries to sterilize children and adults. The bill was introduced by homosexual State Senator Scott Wiener. Jonathan Keller, President of the California Family Council, said, “By rejecting the concerns of doctors and parents, and siding with LGBT activists, Governor Newsom is yet again ignoring the heartbreak his policies will unleash. AB 2218 opens the door to drugs and surgeries causing irreversible damage, risking life-long sterility for young people…”
In related news, The New York Times reports that “top surgeries” (mastectomies) are being performed on hundreds of girls all over America.
8. COVID VACCINE DEATHS UP IN EUROPE: The Exposé reported a 755% increase in excess deaths among children aged 0 to 14 in 2022. In the United States, 1.4 million adverse events have been reported in VAERS, including 31,074 deaths and 258,480 serious injuries between December 14, 2020, and September 16, 2022.
Diana West, author of American Betrayal and The Red Thread, recently stated, “I think it’s hard to overstate the evil of this vaccine program. We are governed by people of dark criminality. I don’t think there’s been a time in history when there have been so many dark forces pressing in on our existence, even at a microscopic level…”
Ed. Note: The real number of vaccine deaths in the U.S. is likely much, much higher than the underreported VAERS database.
9. ARE EUROPE’S GAS WOES COMING TO AMERICA? The U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve has fallen to its lowest levels since August 1984, as Biden recklessly drains reserves to temporarily bring down gas prices ahead of the midterms. Tim Stewart, president of the U.S. Oil and Gas Association, said, “This is the first time in history, honestly, that the Strategic Petroleum Reserve has been used as a campaign credit card to buy down political risk for the midterms.” Senator Tommy Tuberville said, “It’s all about buying the votes, just like the forgiveness of the student loan…buying votes, right before the election.”
10. ELITES WANT GLOBAL CENSORSHIP REGIME: Speaking at the United Nations, New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Adern called online free speech a “weapon of war.” Ardern said, “After all, how do you successfully end a war if people are led to believe the reason for its existence is not only legal but noble? How do you tackle climate change if people do not believe it exists?”
PayPal recently shut down the U.K.-based Free Speech Union. Facebook has shut down several groups with hundreds of thousands of members after the BBC reported the groups for using the carrot emoji as “code” for “Covid vaccine.” NBC suggested that a regulatory agency could monitor text messages to stop “misinformation.” The New York Times recommended that America criminalize free speech online as Germany does. Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) has demanded that YouTube answer for censoring him online for the past year and interfering with his reelection campaign.
Ed. Note: Law professor Jonathan Turley comments, “Unsatisfied with the unprecedented corporate censorship of social media companies, leaders like Hillary Clinton have turned from private censorship to good old-fashioned state censorship. Speech regulation has become an article of faith for the left.”
11. LIZ CHENEY SAYS SHE WILL VOTE DEMOCRAT IF TRUMP IS ELECTED: RINO Liz Cheny promised she would do “whatever it takes to make sure Donald Trump isn’t anywhere close to the Oval Office,” including supporting Democrats. Cheney also said, “I am going to do everything I can to make sure that Kari Lake [the GOP nominee for Arizona Governor] is not elected.” Lake responded, “That might be the biggest, best gift I have ever received! The Republican Party — the new Republican Party — is the party of We, the People. It is no longer the party of warmongers.” Former Trump advisor Steve Bannon wrote, “This almost certainly guarantees a Kari Lake blowout.”
12. STACY ABRAMS’ UNSCIENTIFIC ATTACK ON THE UNBORN: At a recent campaign event, Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams claimed, “There is no such thing as a heartbeat at six weeks. It is a manufactured sound designed to convince people that men have the right to take control of a woman’s body.” Some have called Abrams, who has never had children herself, a “circulation-denier.”
13. GOVERNMENT ABUSE: The Gateway Pundit reports that one January 6 political prisoner was by beaten by guards until he lost an eye: “They want him dead.”
The Blaze reports, “A recent class-action lawsuit alleges that FBI agents illegally seized more than $86 million in assets stored in safety deposit boxes located in Beverly Hills, California, under the presumption that the assets were somehow linked to unidentified crimes.” Just the News reports, “Law enforcement agencies at every level of government are increasingly buying data from private, third-party data brokers on Americans’ phone and internet activities in order to track them, often without a warrant.”

THE FREEDOM AGENDA
1. NEW YORK CITY POLICE OFFICERS WIN AGAINST COVID VACCINE MANDATE: The Manhattan Supreme Court ruled in favor of 24,000 police officers, striking down the city’s vaccine mandate as “invalid” for members of the Police Benevolent Association (PBA). PBA members who lost their jobs must be “reinstated to the status they were as of the date of the wrongful action.”
2. TWO ARIZONA PRO-LIFE BILLS TAKE EFFECT: Judge Kellie Johnson ruled that a 1864 pre-statehood ban on most abortions can go into effect. One day later, a 15-week abortion ban also took effect. Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich tweeted, “We applaud the court for upholding the will of the legislature and providing clarity and uniformity on this important issue.”
3. PROMINENT DOCTOR REVERSES POSITIONS ON COVID VACCINES: Top pro-vaccine doctor and British cardiologist, Dr. Aseem Malhotra, is calling for health authorities to suspend the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines. Malhotra declared, “There is more than enough evidence—I would say the evidence is overwhelming—to pause the rollout of the vaccine.” Dr. Malhotra also said, “I was willfully blind, certainly in relation to the [Covid] vaccine and the harms. Until I wasn’t.” Malhotra published his findings in a two-part research paper.
4. 17 ATTORNEYS GENERAL ASK SUPREME COURT TO PROTECT RELIGIOUS LIBERTY OF POSTAL WORKER: 17 attorneys general are urging the Supreme Court to protect the freedoms of a Christian Pennsylvania postal worker who refused to work on Sunday. West Virginia Attorney General Morrisey said, “It’s a fundamental right of every citizen to freely exercise their religious freedom…No one should be forced to sacrifice their dedication to their religion in order to keep a job.”
5. MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE BILL WOULD MAKE TRANSGENDER SURGERIES ON MINORS A FELONY: The Protect Children’s Innocence Act is sponsored by 42 congressmen, all Republicans. U.S. Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) said the bill is about “protecting them [children] from…being fast-tracked into permanent harm to their bodies before they’re old enough to vote, get a tattoo, buy tobacco, join the military, often drive a car, and go see an R-rated movie.” The bill would make providing “gender-affirming care” to minors a class C felony offense with 10 to 25 years in prison for those who perform transgender surgeries on minors.
6. IRANIANS PROTEST REGIME BRUTALITY: Iranians have taken to the streets after the police beat to death 22-year-old Mahsa Amini for wearing her hijab too loosely. Iran Alive Ministries reports, “This outrage represents the latest incentive for Iranian women to boldly fight for their rights by marching against the Islamic government’s abuse of women…There are more women than men among Iranian believers in Christ. Iranian women have been oppressed, controlled, and abused by the political and religious system for so long that when they receive Christ, they truly become agents of spiritual transformation!…Please pray with us that the Holy Spirit would continue to move the hearts of Iranians toward Jesus and that He would protect all Iranians who are bravely protesting the Iranian government’s brutality toward its own people.”
7. SIX ATTORNEYS GENERAL SUE AGAINST BIDEN’S STUDENT LOAN FORGIVENESS SCHEME: The attorneys general of Arkansas, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, and South Carolina have sued against Biden’s executive decree to forgive student loan debt. Arkansas Attorney General Leslie Rutledge said, “President Biden does not have the power to arbitrarily erase the college debt of adults who chose to take out those loans. [His] unlawful political play puts the self-wrought college-loan debt on the backs of millions of hardworking Americans who are struggling to pay their utility bills and home loans in the midst of Biden’s inflation.”
8. BEYOND MEAT LOSES 77% OF VALUE: The Gates-backed fake meat company Beyond Meat lost 77% of its stock value over the past year, according to Bloomberg. Sales of all fake meat products are down 10.5% over the past year. Rick Moran notes, “One reason for this is their price. With food prices going through the roof, a lot fewer customers are willing to pay a premium for fake meat when the real thing isn’t that much more expensive.”
9. OVERWHELMING MAJORITY AMERICANS WANT LEADERS WITH INTEGRITY: The Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University found that almost three-quarters of Americans want leaders who are “honest,” “courageous,” have “identifiable integrity,” “model kindness and understanding, even with people they strongly disagree with,” and have “a strong commitment to the idea that our country is a nation of laws.” The Cultural Research Center’s America’s Values Study also discovered the following:
- 76% agree that “Individuals should have the rights and freedom to make legitimate choices rather than having the government make those choices for them.”
- 75% agree that the religious freedom of all Americans should be protected.
- 72% believe government should “act responsibly by living within a budget to get inflation under control and make it more affordable to live and to raise a family.”
- 67% believe government should prevent “big tech companies from ignoring the law by censoring free speech, distorting information, and canceling law-abiding citizens.”
- 66% believe government should have “the courage and commitment to deport violent criminals who are not U.S. citizens.”
10. GOD’S SMUGGLER, BROTHER ANDREW, GOES TO HEAVEN: Andrew van der Bijl, better known as Brother Andrew, died at the age of 94. Brother Andrew is remembered for smuggling Bibles into Communist countries and for telling his incredible story in the book, God’s Smuggler. He also founded Open Doors, a ministry that serves persecuted Christians.
Open Doors USA said in a statement, “For more than 60 years, Open Doors’ founder – Brother Andrew – visited over 125 countries in service to the global church…God used Andrew’s obedience and prayers to change millions of lives and eternities. Millions of people count themselves forever changed by Andrew’s words, prayers, and his life. We are grieving, but we are as equally thankful.”
11. TENNESSEE GOVERNOR ACKNOWLEDGES GOD’S SOVEREIGNTY: Tennessee Governor Bill Lee signed a proclamation declaring Friday, September 30, a day of prayer, humility, and fasting. The proclamation stated, “We acknowledge God’s sovereignty and the need for God’s grace over our state and our nation…We seek forgiveness for our many transgressions so that our hearts and our minds may be renewed…Scripture tells us that the beginning of wisdom is the fear of the Lord, and the Lord gives wisdom freely to those who ask for it…The people of Tennessee acknowledge our rich blessings, our deep transgressions, the complex challenges ahead, and the need to pause, to humble ourselves and to seek God’s guidance for the days ahead.”
HYMN OF THE WEEK
My Anchor Holds by W.C. Martin
Though the angry surges roll
On my tempest-driven soul,
I am peaceful for I know,
Wildly though the winds may blow:
I’ve an anchor safe and sure,
That can evermore endure!
And it holds, my anchor holds!
Blow your wildest, then, O gale!
On my bark so small and frail,
By His grace I shall not fail,
For my anchor holds, my anchor holds!
Mighty tides about me sweep;
Perils lurk within the deep.
Angry clouds o’ershade the sky,
And the tempest rises high!
Still I stand the tempest’s shock,
For my anchor grips the rock!
I can feel the anchor fast
As I meet each sudden blast,
And the cable, though unseen,
Bears the heavy strain between!
Through the storm I safely ride,
Till the turning of the tide.
Troubles almost ’whelm the soul;
Griefs like billows o’er me roll.
Tempters seek to lure astray!
Storms obscure the light of day!
But in Christ I can be bold:
I’ve an anchor that shall hold.
And it holds, my anchor holds!
Blow your wildest, then, O gale!
On my bark so small and frail,
By His grace I shall not fail,
For my anchor holds, my anchor holds!
