Gary Varvel: FEMA's public fountains

A new Humor Me, Jewish people react to scripture and Rush Limbaugh

Nov 19, 2024

Fox News reports - “The now-fired FEMA employee, Marn'i Washington, told relief workers to skip houses visibly advertising support for President-elect Trump during recovery efforts after Hurricane Milton.”

The House Homeland Security Committee is demanding interviews with three FEMA employees on possible "systemic bias."

This is just the latest example of the deep state of unelected federal bureaucrats who control government policy.

These career bureaucrats should be updating their resumes because Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is gearing up to close down whole departments and send millions of federal employees into the private sector.

I’ve drawn lots of big government cartoons over the years but I never imagined that we’d have an administration that would actually make it smaller.

In his 1996 State of the Union address, President Bill Clinton declared that "the era of big government is over.” But it wasn’t really over. The federal government continued to grow out of control. President Jimmy Carter created the U.S. Department of Education on May 4, 1980, after splitting it from the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare. Trump says he’s going to close it down and send control of education back to the states.

Time will tell if these proposals will become reality. Past experience tells us that the Democrats and the liberal legacy media will do everything in their power to protect and preserve their precious, bloated government god.

VIDEO - So Be It: In this video, a Jewish believer in Yeshua reads this scripture to some Jewish men:

“But he was pierced for our transgressions,
he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was on him,
and by his wounds we are healed.”

Then he asks them if the scripture sounds like the Old or New Testament. They said it sounds like a New Testament verse about Jesus. They are surprised to learn that it’s the Old Testament book of Isaiah 53 verse 5.

Isaiah 53 is a description of the death, burial and resurrection of the Messiah.

Isaiah 53:11 says, “After he has suffered, he will see the light of life…”

Pray for the Jewish people who are hearing about the love and sacrifice of Jesus who is the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.

FYI: Daniel 9:26 says, ““And after the sixty-two weeks
Messiah shall be cut off, but not for Himself;
And the people of the prince who is to come
Shall destroy the city and the sanctuary.”

Notice that this Old Testament verse says that 1 - the Messiah will be “cut off” which means — killed. Then it says that 2 - the city and the sanctuary will be destroyed. Therefore, the Jewish Messiah had to come before 70 AD when the Romans destroyed the Temple.

VIDEO - In light of Trump’s re-election, here’s the late Rush Limbaugh in 2017 talking about how the media cannot destroy Trump. Enjoy.
