Why Are We Ruled by People with So Many Defective Brains?

It is really becoming a major wonderment as to why so many political leaders are profoundly feeble-minded. If someone is going to be a leader, they need to have the mental capability to fit their demanding job.

During the last decade, the American people have increasingly put into office people who are more and more incompetent. Some of them could not operate a hot dog stand, and yet they are given roles that control the fate of our nation.

The new norm is that it’s natural for the US president to speak in gibberish. The liberal media knows that there is something wrong with President Joe Biden, but they ignore it because they only care about power. Since Biden does not write the words on his prompter, we may have freshmen interns setting policy for the executive branch.

Putin must reflect at least once a week on the reality that America’s nuclear arsenal is controlled by someone who is senile. It would be my hope that a guy who probably spends 10 minutes each day deciding what flavor of jelly to put on his toast would have some level of oversight.

If Biden is taken out, I had hoped that some other group would also have the launch codes. In the United States, a single person is authorized to make the decision to use a nuclear weapon—the president. Biden is not required to consult with any advisors before issuing a launch order. No one in the Defense Department, Congress, or the judicial branch can lawfully prevent the use of nuclear weapons once the president’s order is given.

Of course, in the event of a true emergency, someone would be moving the vice president to one of those aforementioned command facilities, though not the same one as the president. That is so, in the event the president was taken out, the VP could be quickly entered in as acting-President and go through the process of selecting a new presidential code.

We don’t have hours to put the VP into power. In a 500-missile emergency of a Russian submarine attack, we may only have 10 minutes to act. The nightmare scenario in my mind is Biden’s staff screaming at him to issue the launch codes, and he just stares into space and says, “I could really go for two scoops of vanilla ice cream right now.”

California Senator Dianne Feinstein has been in the news because she has gummed up the Senate Judiciary Committee by not being in Washington DC. She is 89 years old and has health issues. She has rebuffed calls for her to not just temporarily remove herself from her Committee role but step down from her job entirely before her term is up in 2024.

I would hope that she would step aside for the sake of the nation. The truth is that there are several people who need to retire because they are simply too old for the job. Some of the people required to force Feinstein out of office are near to her same age.

Rep. Nancy Pelosi appeared to imply that she thinks calls for Feinstein to resign over her vote absences on health grounds are sexist. Since Pelosi suffers from similar drawbacks to her health, sexism is going to be used rather frequently.

Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnel is a legislator I wish would resign. He has messed up enough races in his own party to give control of the Senate to the Democrats. Voters keep sending him back because they want government money that he can bring to the state. What may be good for Kentucky has been a disaster for the nation.

The election of Penn. Senator John Fetterman set a new low in a person’s willingness to elect mentally challenged people. He cannot function as a normal person. It may sound harsh to say, but he is nothing but a puppet that says words that are printed out for him.

If they had pulled Howdy Doody out of mothballs in the Detroit Institute of Arts and ran him in Fetterman’s place, it may have been an improvement. Soon after coming to the office, Fetterman had to seek mental health treatment to combat depression caused by his stroke.

Hillary Clinton currently does not hold any public office. In 2016 we nearly had her as president. The only factor that saved us was that she was such a nasty person that the American people decided to go with Donald Trump.

The reason why we have so many mentally challenged people in office is that we are getting the type of people we deserve. As our nation loses its morality, we are led by people who reflect our weakness.

“When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn” (Proverbs 29:2).

Les Feldick—A Most Faithful Servant

Les Feldick, TV host and in-depth Bible teacher almost without peer, is now in the arms of the Lord he served devotedly for many decades.

Les, I easily acknowledge, invested heavily in my own desire to serve in our Lord’s great cause. For many years, his program, Thru the Bible with Les Feldick, was and continues to be on my TV screen while I begin my mornings, usually around 4 am. His program was—and still is—on four times on various channels, and I sometimes will listen twice to hear the points he made in those hundreds of programs over the years.

Like Paul, the great apostle, wrote, our minds can’t truly know all the things the Lord has prepared for us when our course on earth is finished. Certainly, those heavenly marvels must be spectacular beyond all human imagination for this man of God.

Thankfully, Les will, through his TV programs, continue to teach us until the Lord calls in the way the Lord has called Les, or until the Rapture—that blessed event Les Feldick so enthusiastically taught at every opportunity.

Below is the obituary his family presents to honor beloved father, grandfather, brother, and uncle.

We will soon see him again, alive and well for eternity. The great reunion with Les is just a heartbeat—or twinkling of an eye moment—away.

*****

Dear friends,

On Wednesday, April 5th, at approximately 8:30 p.m., surrounded by his loving wife Iris and family, Les Feldick passed from this world into eternal Glory. Les was a true workman that needed not be ashamed because he devoted his life to serving the Lord Jesus through teaching God’s Word rightly divided as stated in II Timothy 2:15. He was able to remain at the place he loved most on Earth, his cattle ranch in Lona Valley, until the very end. Although Les has left us bodily, his legacy will live on through the ministry he and Iris began in 1990. “Through the Bible” has and will continue to bless many with a deeper understanding of Biblical truths.

Prayers for the family are greatly appreciated, but we would ask that you not send flowers, gifts, etc. Many of you have asked about the future, and we want to ease your minds—”Through the Bible” will continue! Les expressed to us many times his wishes for us to carry on with the ministry, and that is what we intend to do as long as the Lord allows. Les always stressed that it took the efforts of many people to bring this teaching to the masses, and there are many who are working to ensure it continues for years to come.

Eugene Les Eugene Feldick was born June 6, 1927, to Ted and Lu Feldick at home on the farm near Buffalo Center, Iowa. He passed peacefully into Glory on April 5, 2023, at the age of 95. Les was raised on a family farm. He graduated from Buffalo Center High School as class president in 1944.

As a young man, Les enjoyed farming, sports, history, and listening to good gospel preaching on the radio while he milked the cows.

Les enrolled at the University of Montana in Missoula. Out of love and commitment to his family and the land, he returned to the family farm before graduating.

Les joined the Army in 1950 and served at the Army/Navy Hospital in Hot Springs, Arkansas, attaining the rank of Sergeant.

Les met Iris Gray on Valentine’s Day in 1953. They were married on June 21, 1953. Les and his new bride moved from Hot Springs, AR, back to the family farm near Buffalo Center, Iowa. They raised three children in the love and admonition of Jesus Christ.

Early in his farming career, Les began teaching from the Bible to a small home Bible study group under the leading and encouragement of a close friend and missionary.

Other weekly home Bible studies were soon requested of Les, who was blessed greatly by God with the gift of Bible teaching. God’s Word did not return void. Many hearts, minds, and souls were transformed to the glory of God through those small, home Bible study groups.

Les moved his family to an Oklahoma cattle ranch near Kinta, OK, in 1975, not far from where Iris was born and raised. Iris continued as a registered nurse, and Les developed a cow/calf operation.

Not long after moving to Oklahoma, Les was asked to lead a morning Bible study with the Stigler police force. Upon invitation, other weekly Bible studies began in Tahlequah, Wilburton, Muskogee, and McAlester, Oklahoma. A request to televise a Bible study led by Les in Tulsa, OK, was made in 1990. This locally televised and “temporary” program began what would become a ministry of worldwide impact. The sound biblical teachings of a Holy Spirit-led, self-taught farmer/rancher continue to inspire and instruct millions worldwide.

Les is survived by his sweetheart of 70 years, Iris. Greg (wife-Janette,) their first-born,) and Todd (wife-Kim,) their third child, remember their dad with love, admiration, respect, and gratitude. His sister, Jan, 3 nephews, 3 nieces, 9 grandchildren, and 8 great-grandchildren also remain. Laura, their daughter, preceded her father in death in 2017. Les’ brother, Harley, also preceded him in death.

*****

Les no doubt has now heard our Lord say to him: “Well done, good, faithful servant.”

Donation Drive April to June

During most donation drives, my focus is normally on the Rapture Ready site. Since this has been a quarter with few problems, I would like to focus on the nation, which I think has suffered a great deal of harm during the last three months.

By having a president who is mentally challenged, America is no longer the clear leader of the world. Although it did not get much news coverage, China made a move that shows America is being pushed out of its leadership role. It secretly arranged for a peace treaty between Saudi Arabia and Iran. This is an amazing accomplishment on the part of the Chinese when you consider that Saudi Arabia and Iran were, at the time, fighting a proxy war in Yemen.

A key source of American power in the world is that we control the reserve currency that all other nations must use in global trade. During the past quarter, several nations have signed treaties that will exclude the dollar in future trades. For decades, China has built up a large holding in US bonds. It has publicly stated that it has no plans to increase its holdings of our debt.

Crime has gotten so bad in many major cities that big box retailers are closing their outlets. Walmart is closing several stores in New York City because that has made it impossible to turn a profit. In fact, the company said they had stores in some locations for 17 years, and they lost money every year.

In San Francisco, a Whole Foods is closing up because it can’t get workers to show up. Violent crime is so rampant that some workers fear for their personal safety and refuse to come to work. If a mentally ill homeless person steals a grocery cart, you’d be a fool to run the risk of being stabbed over a fight for the cart. While you’re still recovering in the hospital, your attacker would likely be back on the street.

The reason why cities like New York and San Francisco are turning into lawless hellholes is that we have DAs and Judges that refuse to do their duty. They are elected or appointed into their position to go easy on criminals, whom they view as victims of the system. If a guy walks up to a stranger on the street and beats him for no reason, he is not a victim. This thug needs to be put in jail so he can’t hurt anyone else.

The mainstream media has long been evil because they add a liberal bias to the news stories of the day. Lately, things have gone one step further by the press collectively deciding what deserves to be reported and what should be banned from news coverage. The Jan 6th invasion of the Capital is constantly in the news. The boycott of Bud-Light over the firm having transvestite Dylan Mulvaney as the brand’s spokesperson has gotten very little coverage. The few articles that I find in a news search attack the boycotters as transphobic haters.

People who think they are some other sex has been going on for a long time. It seems in the last few weeks, it has reached a boiling point of insanity. Here in Benton, Ak, we have two students at the local High School who claim to be a dog and a cat. One of them requested that a litter box be set up in the bathroom for it to use.

Many corporations have a growing number of people on staff that are social justice advisors. They are there to make sure the firm follows woke guidelines that no one can really define. If they mess up, they can’t be fired because that would be racism and grounds for a lawsuit.

The rapid decline of America must have Christians screaming, “I can’t take this anymore.” I would remind my fellow believers that this is the outcome that the Bible predicted. Our Lord Jesus said that prophetic events would unfold like birth pangs. The pace of the last quarter ensures me that our mission here on earth will shortly come to an end. Please continue to Stand with Rapture Ready until we are called home.

There are three ways you can contribute to RR: You can send a financial gift via our P.O. Box address, you can make a one-time donation, or there is a frequent option that allows you to make monthly donations.

Raging toward Reset

Evangelist Billy Graham once wrote a book with the title World Aflame. The world then, as now, seemed poised to burst into actual flames. The nuclear war threat was ever-present, and the spiritual evil seemed, as now, to be erupting from the very portal of Hell.

However, that earlier time, because of extremely troubling things transpiring hour by hour today, seems almost a pleasant reminiscence. But at the same time, although things on the horizon are far more volatile now than when Dr. Graham released that book, the earth’s inhabitants and people of America seem to scarcely notice the true nature of the dangers faced.

Those who do understand the true nature of the matters involved in those dangers are in the almost-infinitesimal minority. While I’m aware that this observation no doubt might appear arrogant, it is nonetheless a fact if we view the Bible as God’s Word to humankind.

Only believers in Jesus Christ for salvation can truly grasp the dangers faced. And only a tiny minority within those actually understand what is happening and what is about to happen while the world and the nation rage toward reset.

This end-times generation sits upon an incendiary surface, beneath which is building the tectonic Tribulation pressures that are about to explode in the most catastrophic eruption of all human history.

Jesus, Himself, put it this way:

“For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be” (Matthew 24:21).

The Tribulation—Daniel’s Seventieth Week—is on the brink of erupting, and only that minority of God’s eternal family alive at this moment knows and understands the extent of the dangers that are poised to make the planet Hell on Earth.

As a matter of fact, the minions—the powers and principalities—against whom we as believers struggle, both human and demonic, are deep into preparing to bring that condition about. The evil, supernatural minions among that cabal are implementing the chief perpetrator’s blueprint to make the earth an inferno of death and destruction. At the same time, the human minions—at least many of them—believe they are creating a utopian world in which they can become as gods. This will require certain things to take place. These things are within the Luciferian blueprint, but the human minions believe that blueprint is their own creation. At least some of this human element within the Ephesians 6:12 cabal believe they are doing God’s work—assuming at least a few actually believe there is a God.

These, in their state of satanic delusion, believe the blueprint is of their own creation. They title their plan “The Great Reset.”

Their slogan for this scheme to construct their version of Babel’s tower is “Build back better!”

The chief human architect for the Great Reset project apparently is Klaus Schwab. This globalist adherent to the “Build back better” mantra framed the neo-Babel building project a few years ago.

In June 2020, Schwab, founder and executive chairman of the World Economic Forum (WEF), presented the plan. He wrote that the COVID-19 lockdowns “may be gradually easing, but anxiety about the world’s social and economic prospects is only intensifying.” He warned that a “sharp economic downturn has already begun, and we could be facing the worst depression since the 1930s.”

“To achieve a better outcome,” Schwab said, “the world must act jointly and swiftly to revamp all aspects of our societies and economies, from education to social contracts and working conditions.”

“Every country, from the United States to China,” he said, “must participate, and every industry, from oil and gas to tech, must be transformed. In short, we need a ‘Great Reset’ of capitalism.”

The following describes the unsavory project from the non-delusional perspective.

This will be your future if some powerful people at the World Economic Forum get their way: you’ll own nothing and “be happy about it.”

Energy will be green, rationed, and expensive, and travel will be restricted.

Your diet will be controlled, and currency will be digital.

This left-wing dystopian dream is called the Great Reset, and you’re supposed to be excited about it.

The Great Reset Is Well-Documented

The Great Reset has been labeled a conspiracy theory, and parts of it sound like a conspiracy theory, but everything we know about it comes from the global elites themselves, who have been quite open about it.

“This is not a conspiracy theory. This is a well-documented movement among many of the world’s most powerful people,” says Justin Haskins, the Editorial Director at The Heartland Institute and a leading authority on the Great Reset. “Fundamentally, this is a radical and complete transformation of everything that we do in our society,” Haskins adds, “It will change the way businesses are evaluated; it will coerce businesses to pursue left-wing causes.”

The Great Reset was unveiled at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, where many of the world’s most powerful people go to offer solutions to the world’s problems.  They have said that the coronavirus pandemic is a historic opportunity to change the way the world operates.

COVID-19 Pandemic as an ‘Opportunity’ to Change Everything

A World Economic Forum video warns, “Right now, we’re facing a crisis of international proportions. It’s going to have a long-term impact on us.”

And their solution is essentially global socialism. Think of the Green New Deal combined with the COVID-19 lockdown restrictions and throw in something called the Fourth Industrial Revolution, in which technology is supposed to radically change the way we live and work.

Klaus Schwab, the founder of the World Economic Forum, says the Fourth Industrial Revolution will lead to “…a fusion of our physical, our digital and our biological identities.” (“The Global Elite’s Plan for Your Future: The Great Reset,” CBN, originally published December 8, 2020.)

The Great Reset planned by those who would rule the earth is understood by those who believe what God’s prophetic Word says about things to come as being Satan’s blueprint for bringing the Antichrist regime to power. And those who view these things to come know that the rage toward reset will be preempted by Christ’s call to all who believe in Him for salvation. It is the pre-Trib view of Bible prophecy that provides full enlightenment—that gives more complete understanding of what happens next.

We are nearing Midnight in ways that are overtly observable in every direction the believer can look on today’s end times horizon. The true “Great Reset” is about to be implemented. That “Reset” will be God’s fulfillment of the ultimate Promise to all believers who have lived during the Church Age.

“For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words” (1 Thessalonians 4:16–18).
