Father in your mighty name thank you for this ruling for citizens to have their cases tried by jury. May all the Supreme Court Justices who ruled in this case be protected from retribution. Now let us pray for the J-6 defendants (around 300) who were not given due process be heard now. They’ve been in the DC gulag for 3 years. Most of them are innocent. Thank you Father that you hear our prayers and answer our prayers (in your time). Amen and Amen. Let’s continue to drain the DC swamp (alphabet agencies) who are bureaucrats who have power be dissolved and done away with. They have too much power. Amen
Praise the Lord. Our agencies have gained too much power over the years. They ignore the Constitution and change the laws to fit what they want to pursue. Thank you, Jesus.
