I Prayed have prayed
Father, we ask that You help us to walk in Your ways by acting justly, loving mercy, and walking humbly with You. Thank you for giving this man courage to take a stand even when it is difficult. Please give your your people the same courage to take a stand for truth. Micah 6:8

Chicago Tribune columnist John Kass is telling the woke apologist sharks for liberal billionaire George Soros at his paper’s union to pound sand.

Kass fired back at The Chicago Tribune Guild for criticism he received for a column he wrote addressing the “growing sense of lawlessness in America’s urban areas” in a piece headlined “What happened to an America where you could freely speak your mind.”

Specifically, the column that was criticized “explored the connections between soft-on-crime prosecutors and increases in violence along with the political donations of left-wing billionaire George Soros, who in several states has funded liberal candidates for prosecutor.” Kass alleged that the Chicago Tribune Guild “wrote an open letter to management defaming me, by falsely accusing me of religious bigotry and fomenting conspiracy theories.” He then alleged in response: “I will not apologize for writing about SorosI will not bow to those who’ve wrongly defamed me. I will continue writing my column.”. . .

Kass stated that “Soros’ influence on these [prosecutor] races is undeniable and has been widely reported.” Kass listed the infamous prosecutor in the Jussie Smollet case Kim Foxx as one such example.

For Kass, “it seems that the general attitude in journalism is that super PACs and dark money are bad, unless of course, they’re operated by wealthy billionaires of the left. Then they’re praised and courted.”

Kass then took aim and nuked the cancel culture enthusiasts he said are trying to wreck his career:

“Most people subjected to cancel culture don’t have a voice. They’re afraid. They have no platform. When they’re shouted down, they’re expected to grovel. After the groveling, comes social isolation. Then they are swept away. But I have a newspaper column.”

In his conclusion, Kass powerfully addressed the trend that he sees overtaking American politics. “Those who do not behave will be marginalized,” he commented. “But those who self-censor will be praised. Yet what of our American tradition of freely speaking our minds? That too, is swept away.”

I’ve been around Chicago long enough to have run in some of the same circles and social scenes as John Kass. Let’s just say he’s got a bit of a well-earned reputation in certain quarters. Good Christian? Devoted husband? Not if you know him.

I pray for his family, but not for him, at least not until he remembers what Thou Shalt.

Father God, You are the giver of everything and You can take all those back too. Therefore we ask You in Jesus’ name that the resources of the ungodly Open Society Foundation of George Soros to dry up. Just as Jesus spoke to the nonproducing fig tree and it dried up from the roots. We ask You in Jesus’ name to take away all the resources (money, communication and alliances) of those who work evil in the colleges, government to dry up from the roots.

Please Father, show George Soros who is God.

In Jesus’ name, we pray.

I applaud Mr Lass, for if anyone has ever looked into the teachings/agendas/belief systems of this OpenSociety organization. Then, more people would specifically pray for the dismantling spiritual wickedness in the heavenlies against these spirits of lawlessness/idolatry/lies/DISHONORINGod/Antichrist that are coming at us like a flood, we need the Spirit of the Lord to lift up a standard
against him. Isa. 59:19 Lord Jesus help us.

I applaud John Kass for refusing to kowtow to the leftist censors.
The Chicago Tribune used to be a respected publication.
Now it is just another Marxist rag.

I think Mr. Kass is very Brave and Courageous. We thank God for him and many like him, that are doing what is right before God and not bowing to the wicked. If He honor God in his work, The lord will take care of him. Psalm 37: 23-24. We pray that more people will expose Soros and the work the devil is doing through him and their plans will be destroyed by God in Jesus’name.

[email protected] us publicize what is happening in Rio Grande no Norte, Brazil, with the Cristian churches and temples.

As the CODIV19 pandemic lower its numbers, the Estate of Rio Grande do Norte (Brazil) announced a State Decree to open commerce and other sectors with rules of social distancing and sanitizations.

Many people, otherwise, are not respecting the cautions and warnings in beaches, parties, stores, do not respecting the minimum 6 feet distance, do not use masks and a lot of other counter sense actions, but the Estate are not doing harder actions to prevent it. The people are living as the pandemic was gone.

The Estate, governed by the far-left, create a State Decree different to the Cristian churches and temples, making it clear that it is a way to difficult its opening and also make it easy to create some embarrassing situations to they. In the S.D., beyond the rules imposed to commerce, gyms, stores, bars etc., the is two that was not imposed to they, just for churches and temples.

1) Create a document visible to public to show how the church is working with the rules of social distancing and sanitizations.

2) Subordinates religious temples to the general public, delegates to anyone the power to inspect the temples, demand the framing plan and even denunciate to authorities, a power that has not been given to the general public for any other activity, such as bars, shopping malls, gyms, banks and other.

So, why this need? Why the temples and churches are so dangerous to social health than commerce, shoppings, bars etc.? Why no other segment has these two obligations? Why people can inspect and also denunciate as they can’t do with others?

This is clear an attack to the Christians, put different and harder rules to us. We call it hypocrisy when you promote one thing and do another.

The far-left always sells the discuss of freedom of speech, democracy defense, celebrate the diversities, live the differences, spread the love, combat the fascism, but with Christians, it do not accept they speech, do not consider they a people to be included in the difference and diversity. It do not accept anyone who thinks different, contradicting the defense of freedom of speech, already made some movements (last government) to shut down and silence churches. The left-far is much more near to fascism than the right.

So please, we need your help to spread this situation to the world the help stop the religious persecution. Fearing retaliation from the extremist left, we tried to create an email, we tried to create an e-mail in some providers via TOR network that do not need to put phone numbers, but they are very limited in its daily or monthly sent quantity, much below 10 for day. It way we need such help.

Big cry baby John, here in Chicago John is a gifted writer who sees the world through Greek eyes and espouses strong conservative views without ever looking at both sides.

    Lord God Almighty I pray you’ll be at work in this William Morrison to know that letting your emotions control your decisions is like letting a fire get out of control and then be surprised at all the damage it does! Which is why when the Black lives matter people get their way the result is more black bodies in the morgue! Which is a fact they will not let change their mind because of how hateful it is to them!

      I have served the Lord for over sixty years and am committed to Jesus christ. I have read John Kass frequently. He is a fine man and a gifted writer, and I can assure you that his spiritual life would raise questions for those who believe in the inerrancy of scripture. Moreover, you make statements with absolutely no knowledge of my life, and you may have a culturally biased base of understanding. I am confident that you love the Lord; however, you will learn someday that Christians who reside in Asia and Africa have a vastly different view then privileged North Americans. I have had direct experience with indigenous Africans and also missionaries who have stayed in my home. they would shock you. May God bless you……..always!

Father we stand together as believers and ask and believe that You are already surrounding John Kass and his family with your Angeles to protect them from evil that comes upon them for telling the truth. Holy Spirit we pray that You continue to give John Kass wisdom, strength, and perseverance to expose the evil that has penetrated the media and deceives our nation with lies causing us to be divided. Lord Jesus we ask that You open the doors you want John Kass to walk through and close doors that are traps.

Father I thank and praise you in Jesus name.

John Kass I thank you for your willingness to speak truth and believe your stance will encourage your peers to join you. Your willingness to use your column for truth is an answered prayer.
