Melania Trump Awarded with Ukrainian Honor
|
|
|
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy awarded First Lady Melania Trump with an honor for her efforts to support children and civilians affected by the war between Ukraine and Russia.
The honor, the Order of Princess Olga, 1st Class, the highest civilian honor for women, represents Mrs. Trump’s “significant personal contribution to humanitarian support for Ukraine, active human rights and charitable activities aimed at saving Ukrainian children, citizens who suffered as a result of Russian aggression, illegally deported and forcibly displaced from the territories of Ukraine temporarily occupied by the Russian Federation,” the decree says.
Princess Olga was a 10th-century ruler who was the first member of the royal family to convert to Christianity. The first lady received the honor upon meeting with Russian and Ukrainian officials at the White House. The gathering is “believed to mark the first time in American history that a First Lady has personally brought representatives of two nations actively at war together to the White House for diplomacy,” the White House explained.

Father we celebrate the honoring of First Lady Melania Trump, for her successful efforts towards diplomacy between two warring nations. We ask Your favor to fall upon her, for her diligent stance in protecting children and suffering civilians. Pour Your abundant blessings upon President Donald John Trump, First Lady Melania and this administration. May all decisions and future visions for our nation come through a lens of spending hours with the Lord, seeking His perfect wisdom and direction for our nation. Abba, we give You ALL PRAISE for leading the nations according to Your plans and purposes for the world! In Jesus' powerful Name, we pray. Amen.
"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God." (Matt. 5:9)

Multiple People Trapped After Building Collapses in Brooklyn
|
|
The FDNY was called to the scene of a partial building collapse just south of Prospect Park on Nov. 11. Multiple people were trapped after a building in Brooklyn collapsed on Nov. 11.
The Fire Department of the City of New York (FDNY) was called to the scene around 4 p.m. ET after the three-story structure experienced a partial collapse in Brooklyn’s Flatbush neighborhood, just south of Prospect Park. At least one person was dug out of the rubble and removed on a stretcher.
Construction was ongoing in the area before the incident.
The New York Police Department (NYPD) urged people to avoid the area around Bedford Avenue and Flatbush Avenue. The NYPD warned nearby residents to expect street closures and traffic delays and suggested they consider alternate routes. (The Epoch Times) Read more

Abba, our hearts break for those who were hurt or killed in this terrible building collapse. We pray for those still lost in the rubble, we ask for Your mercy, Send the angels to help guide and direct to those still trapped, Father God, let them be found alive! We speak peace over the hearts of those still waiting for loved ones to be rescued, let Your presence flow over the hearts of all first responders and people trying to aid and comfort those who are hurting and heart broken. Holy Spirit, we ask You to send Your angels into this building to uphold and protect all walking in this very dangerous building, protect all dogs who are assisting in this search, let miracles come out of this horrible accident. We ask this in the name El Shaddai, God Almighty, the God who has ultimate power over all things.
"You are the God who performs miracles;
you display your power among the peoples."

Iran Said Producing up to 50 Ballistic Missiles a Month, as IRGC Unveils Underground "Missile City"
|
|
Iran is producing 50 ballistic missiles a month, about half its prewar capacity, according to Western intelligence estimates reported on Wednesday, shortly before Iran unveiled a a new underground “missile city.”
An unnamed Western official who spoke to Bloomberg cited intelligence reports that found that though Iran’s conventional military was mostly destroyed by the joint US-Israel air campaign launched in February, it likely has at least 1,700 ballistic missiles left and is making more.
According to the report, despite accounts that the war left the US with a weapons shortage, it still has large stockpiles of precision-guided bombs and cruise missiles, but drawing on those supplies has depleted stores in other regions.
It said Iranian missile launches at US forces and allies in the Middle East used up at least 1,000 Patriot interceptors. About 650 of those missiles, costing $4 million each, are produced each year. (Times of Israel) Read more |

Abba, the US needs Your help. Iran is, of course, talking very big once the elections went against those who are trying to stop them from getting a nuclear weapon. Lord, You know the truth concerning Iran and their weapons, we ask Holy Spirit to release warrior angels into all the manufacturing facilities in Iran to block and minimize any production that is happening, create software glitches, machine breakdowns. Jesus, we ask You to create explosions that will take out their nuclear stockpile and all the equipment needed to enrich uranium. We ask You to let what the US and Israeli bombs didn't take out be destroyed in these explosions. We ask this in the name Yahweh Sabaoth, The Lord Of Hosts, the God who has untold men and angels patiently waiting to move.
"Whoever remains stiff-necked after many rebukes
will suddenly be destroyed ----without remedy."

Hegseth is Right: Presidents Have Used Force Without Congress's Approval, and No Defense Secretary Has Been Impeached for it
|
|
On Nov. 10, the House blocked an attempt to impeach Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, voting 211 to 204 to shelve the articles filed by Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.). Massie, who lost his Republican primary in May, was the only Republican to vote to keep the resolution alive.
His eight articles charge Hegseth with waging war against Iran without congressional authorization. They also cite the strikes on suspected drug boats in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific, the capture of Nicolás Maduro, and Operation Rough Rider, a 52-day bombing campaign in Yemen.
Hours before the vote, Hegseth answered the charges in the Pentagon briefing room. “In the 250 years of our American republic, no Secretary of War or Secretary of Defense has ever been impeached for carrying out lawful military operations,” he said, according to the Pentagon transcript.
He said every operation named in the articles “was a lawful operation ordered by the commander-in-chief.” Hegseth said he then issued the orders, Congress was notified, and American troops carried them out. He said the same standard had applied “War Powers Resolution or not,” citing Ronald Reagan in Lebanon, Bill Clinton in Kosovo, and Barack Obama and Joe Biden in Iraq and Syria.

Abba, Your son, Peter, is under attack by the enemy, he needs Your help. We ask You to intervene in these circumstances, silence every lie spoken over him, bring forth the truth so that it will be known across the US. Father God, we ask You to guide and direct President Trump and Secretary Hegseth as they continue making decisions concerning Iran, we ask for Your perfect will to be done, only You know the truth, only You know what needs to be done or not done. Jesus, we are trusting You to bring our nation into a place of peace and strength, a place where Your spirit is moving in power on the hearts of all who will receive You, a place where freedom of religion is not in jeopardy. We ask You to protect the country You created as a Christian nation. We ask this in the name Yahweh Palet, The Lord Our Deliverer.
"Sovereign Lord, my strong deliverer,
you shield my head in the day of battle."

A Warning to the Nations Who Turn Against Israel
|
|
At the end of days, when the Son of Man comes, WHO is He judging in the parable of the sheep and the goats? (Matthew 25:31-46)
When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory. “All the NATIONS will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats. Matthew 25:31-32
He is judging the NATIONS, not individuals. And what is the criterion for whether a nation is deemed a “sheep” nation or a “goat” nation? It is based on this:
“And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’ Matthew 25:40
Who are Jesus’ brethren? They are, of course, the Jewish people, the nation of Israel.
Here is the bottom line: at the end of days, the Nations will be judged by the Son of Man based on how they treated the nation and people of Israel! Now let’s take that biblical principle and apply this to what we see happening in the geopolitical landscape.
|
|
In September of 2026, twelve Western governments, led by the UK, France and Canada, announced bans on products from Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria. In an Israel365news article, UK and 11 Other Countries Announce Sanctions on Judea and Samaria, we see the UK and 11 other European Nations announcing sanctions on Judea and Samaria.
Is the United States Morphing into a Goat Nation?
Then we can reflect on the latest “blue tsunami” wave that hit the US in the midterm elections. How does this bode for Israel?
CAIR reported at least 97 Muslim electoral victories nationwide, including reelected incumbents. Among the most historic results was Abdul El-Sayed’s election in Michigan, making him one of seven Muslims elected to the United States Senate. In the recent article,
The Islamic Rise and Rainbow Wave: America’s Changing Political Landscape, the author states:
Reports indicate that Ikhwan Online, a Muslim Brotherhood official website, celebrated El-Sayed’s Democratic primary victory. A former Brotherhood political spokesman also reportedly welcomed his general election success.
The Muslim Brotherhood has been designated by the US Dept. of the Treasury as a terrorist organization that has inspired, nurtured, and funded terrorist groups like Hamas.
One must ask this question: Why is the Muslim Brotherhood celebrating Abdul El-Sayed’s victory in Michigan?
This is a WAKE-UP CALL to the nations! It is a WAKE-UP call to the church!
History is repeating itself once again. And this time, we don’t want to be on the wrong side of history. As Christians in the Church, we must be aware of our dark historical past in our dealings with the Jewish people, so we can repent, turn from our wicked ways and choose a better course for the future.
There is a day of judgment coming for the nations, and the King of Israel, the Son of Man, will separate and sort the nations: to His right will be the sheep nations, and to His left will be the goat nations. May enough Christians rise up, speak out, and stand in support of Israel, so that America can still be counted as a sheep nation! Read all the article
|
|
Abba, we intercede and we cry out to you for your mercy upon this nation. We pray that you will turn many many hearts TOWARD the nation of Israel, that we might BLESS this nation and this people. We long for your favor to remain upon this nation! Abba, for those whose hearts are turning away from Israel, and away from the Jewish people, would you AWAKEN them in the spirit? Would you sound the alarm to them? May they heed the warning that nations that turn against Israel will be counted as "goat nations". Abba, hear our cry!
May enough Christians in our nation TURN to you, TURN to your word HEAR this warning, and STAY FAST AND FAITHFUL friends to Israel! In Jesus name we pray! Amen and amen!
"When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory. “All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats. “And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left." (Matthew 25: 31-33)

1. Ilhan Omar Takes Blue-Wave Victory Lap with 2 Spiteful Words for Conservatives: 'ALLAHU AKBAR' – Western Journal
This is how Islam will conquer the West. Not through war, not through terrorism — through the slow assumption of control through our free and democratic processes.
On Monday, X user Alex Cole posted a midterm victory message, celebrating the defeat of GOP figures and the election and reelection of far-left candidates such as Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib.
He concluded his message, “Hey MAGA… Allahu Akbar,” followed by three crying-laughing emojis.
While a prominent progressive commentator in his own right, Cole’s post wouldn’t have faced as much scrutiny without sitting U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar reposting it.

2. Trump Admin Moves to Close SNAP Loophole That Costs Taxpayers Billions of Dollars Per Year – Western Journal
The Trump administration wants to close a SNAP loophole that allows states to add people to the program who may not actually be eligible.
The Department of Agriculture wants to rein in a back door to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, still often referred to by its original name of food stamps, that could cut 6.3 million people from the program in fiscal year 2029, according to Politico.
Although SNAP was created with very defined limits, a bureaucratic creation known as “broad-based categorical eligibility” allowed those who did not fit in the initial rules for the program to be added. Read more

|
|
Lord God,
We pray that as the Trump administration moves to close SNAP loopholes that cost taxpayers billions of dollars each year, we ask for wisdom and exposure to all who do not need to be on this program. Father, we pray that this program, that under the Obama administration encouraged rule bending to increase SNAP participation, will continue to be uncovered and stopped.
We pray that those seniors and children who really need these benefits would not suffer from this exposure and would be able to continue to receive help. Father, we are seeing so many able bodied young men and women and illegals who do not work being added to these benefits and Your Word states that if a person isn't willing to work then they do not eat. We ask You to provide jobs for those who are willing to work so that they do not become dependent on government assistance. In Your name, we pray. Amen and amen.
"For even when we were with you, this we commanded you; that if any would not work, neither shall they eat. "(2 Thessalonians 3:10)

3. DOJ Indicts Ilhan Omar's Former Bodyguard, Drops Charges Due to Deportation – Western Journal
The questions just keep coming for Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar.
The Democratic lawmaker has been under a searing microscope of late — though not enough of a microscope to offset her winning a 5th term in the 2026 midterms — as she has been the subject of a federal investigation.
Renewed questions surrounding her immigration filings, her marital status, and even her actual name have all been raised following an October raid of Omar’s Washington, D.C., home. The scope of this case even appears to have now ensnared those very loosely in her orbit. According to The New York Times, a former Somali bodyguard of Omar’s was indicted before being deported, but it’s the ex-bodyguard’s potential connections to Omar that are raising eyebrows.
Federal prosecutors filed a felony charge earlier this year against Abdullahi Mohamed, who had briefly served as Omar’s bodyguard during a recent trip to Somalia. Read more

We pray for Omar that she would draw close to you and make you her Lord and savior. We pray Lord that she would come to repentance and choose to use her powerful position to stand up for righteousness and Justice.
"Produce fruit in keeping with repentance." (Matthew 3:8)

4. Nigeria’s Christian Genocide Is Escalating Before Her Eyes – Discern Report
In this CBN News report, Raj Nair details the escalating attacks on Christians in Nigeria that forced a local contact to flee just miles from the violence.
- The video, titled “Nigeria’s Christian Genocide Is Escalating Before Her Eyes,” reports that CBN attempted to record with Caci Africa last week, but she had to flee as attacks unfolded nearby.
- Nair examines conditions on the ground as the violence against Christian communities continues to intensify.
- The report frames the situation as an ongoing crisis requiring attention to the scale of the attacks and the displacement they are causing. Read more

Merciful Father,
We seek Your intervention for the Christian people of Nigeria. The escalation of genocide reported by this young singer, Caci Africa, who had to flee because of attacks nearby breaks our hearts.
We cry out for divine protection for these Christian families and communities as violence continues against them causing so many deaths and displacements and we pray for Your mercy for them as this ongoing crisis continues. Lord renew the strength of Your people in Nigeria and give them a place of refuge from the enemy. Mighty Father, hear our cry for help! Amen and Amen.
"For He will command His angels concerning you to keep you in all of your ways."(Psalm 91:11)

5. Democrat Elected as Chief Justice Vows to Attack Christians, Force Them to Adopt LGBT Beliefs – Discern Report
A Democrat newly elected to manage the state Supreme Court in Texas is promising to turn Christians into targets and force them to adopt her LGBT beliefs.
At issue is an accommodation in court rules that allows Christians in the judicial system in the state to decline to perform same-sex ceremonies, which violate their deeply held faith precepts.
Maggie Ellis, a Democrat who openly identifies as “LGBT,” was elected to the post of state court chief justice. And she has informed the Dallas Morning News she wants to change an existing rule allowing that religious accommodation.
After a court fight, the system adopted the rule just a year ago that allows Texas judges to decline to perform ceremonies that violate their “sincerely held religious belief” without violating the rules on impartiality.
Ellis wants to return to the days of forcing Christians in the state system to violate their faith. Read more
|
|
Father God, we rebuke this decision in Your Mighty Name! We remind Maggie Ellis, who now serves Texas as its Supreme Court justice, that she is not the mighty one, and that her opinion in these matters withers under the weight of Your gavel! We call forth the Fire of God to burn up her opinion, and to bear no weight in the courts of law in the Great State of Texas. Thank You, O Lord, for hearing our prayer, amen and amen!
"Then you call on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the Lord; and the God who answers by fire, He is God.” (I Kings 18:24)

6. Texas Gun Owners Just Got a Preview of Life Under Democrats and It Is Already Getting Ugly – Discern Report
Texas voters handed Democrats the House and the governor’s mansion last week. The new majority did not even wait for the session to start. On November 9, the first day lawmakers could prefile bills, they dumped a stack of gun-control proposals that look like they were written in Sacramento, not Austin.
RedState counted 23 gun bills, almost all of them in the House. The NRA put the total firearm-related measures near 35 on day one. Affordability was the campaign slogan. Gun confiscation was the first move.
Blessed be the Lord my strength, which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight. That is not a talking point. It is a reminder that the right to defend yourself is older than any legislature and does not require permission from a judge who has not even heard your side. Read more
We come against this tactic in the mighty Name of our Lord Jesus Christ. As Senator Ted Cruz has recently stated, "Texas will always be Texas." TEXAS HAS ALWAYS DEFENDED ITS RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS! We decree that, by the power of the Holy Spirit, when this legislature convenes in January, all of these bills will fall to the ground like dust!
Thank You, Holy One, for hearing and for answering our prayer, on behalf of the citizens of the great state of Texas. Amen and amen!
“Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered: let them also that hate him flee before him.” (Psalm 68:1)
"This far and no further, and here shall your proud waves be stopped!" (Job 38:11)

7. New Alaska Vote Total Pushes Peltola Further Ahead - The Epoch Times
The gap between the Democratic challenger and Republican incumbent now surpasses the votes received by a candidate who Republicans say was inserted as a decoy.
The latest update from Alaska has Democrat Mary Peltola ahead by more than 4,200 votes in the race to represent the state in the U.S. Senate.
Peltola is up to 118,926 votes, ahead of Sen. Dan S. Sullivan (R-Alaska). Sullivan is at 114,676 votes after the Nov. 10 update from the Alaska Division of Elections. In a previous update, Peltola led by 2,517 votes.
The gap between the candidates now exceeds the number of votes for Daniel J. Sullivan Jr., whom Republicans allege entered the race at the behest of Democrats to draw votes away from the sitting senator. Sullivan Jr. has 4,027 votes in the latest tally. Read more

Father God, we lay this critical matter before Your Throne of Grace, asking that in the end, only a true and accurate vote be counted for the Senate seat in the State of Alaska. We rebuke and defuse all decoys, so that justice will rule in this state.
“A false balance is abomination to the LORD: but a just weight is his delight.” (Proverbs 11:1)

A Nation At The Spiritual Crossroads
The Daily Jot, Bill Wilson, November 12, 2026
The November 3 election raises deep questions about America's spiritual condition and they will linger long after the ballots are counted. The results suggest a nation increasingly comfortable electing politicians whose positions on abortion, gender identity, antisemitism, and other moral issues stand in direct conflict with biblical teaching. America has been sailing a slow ship into the sea of immorality for decades, and this latest blue wave appears to have carried us deeper into troubled waters. What are we becoming? What does this say about a nation where a majority still professes Christianity? Perhaps the election revealed something far more troubling than political dissatisfaction. It exposed a spiritual crisis.
Consider the implications. A self-described Christian pastor whose theology raises serious biblical concerns can win a Senate seat in Texas, while a pro-Palestinian Islamist whose positions warrant careful scrutiny can find electoral success in Michigan. These developments raise questions about the discernment of voters and the influence of the church. Meanwhile, socialism continues attracting younger Americans, despite its historical association with movements hostile to religious liberty and inalienable rights. Political promises of economic security increasingly compete with biblical principles of personal responsibility, charity, and individual freedom. The question reaches beyond party affiliation. Have generations of Americans become so spiritually disconnected that political ideology has replaced biblical truth as their moral compass? Read More

Kristallnacht: Shards of Broken Glass Piercing the Present
|
|
|
|
We see shards of glass from the past piercing our present reality. What was Kristallnacht, also known as the “Night of Broken Glass”?
Let me quote from Linda Chandler, in her article, “Broken Glass”:
For me, Kristallnacht, the Night of Broken Glass on November 9-10, 1938, is a nightmare for any “doorkeeper of God’s house” (see entry on The LIST, Nov 9-10, 1938). How did this horror happen? 267 synagogues were broken into and burned while 7,000 stores were looted, all to the sound of smashing glass.
At least 91 Jews were murdered on that fateful night. Where were the Christian pastors who knew the sanctity and responsibility of a house of God? Yes, these were Jewish “houses of God,” but the root of our Christian faith and salvation is from the “Jewish” Son of God, Jesus.
As I meditate on “how” this travesty happened, I learned that the hammers used to break the glass were 400-year-old words taken from a document entitled “On the Jews and Their Lies” (authored by Martin Luther). This document was used by the Nazis to perpetuate hatred of the Jews, which then birthed this night of horror.
After the night of broken glass, Europe and the nations were silent. Crickets. No one spoke up in defense of the Jews. The Nazis took this as their “permission slip” to proceed with the “Final Solution” in dealing with the Jewish problem.
Very few Christians know their own dark history of their church forefathers. These are Martin Luther’s words from “On the Jews and their Lies,” which became the template for the “Night of Broken Glass”:
“What shall we Christians do with this rejected and condemned people, the Jews? Since they live among us, we dare not tolerate we are aware of their lying and reviling and blaspheming. If we do, we become sharers in their lies, cursing and blasphemy…
I shall give you my sincere advice: First to set fire to their synagogues or schools and to bury and cover with dirt whatever will not burn, so that no man will ever again see a stone or cinder of them. This is to be done in honor of our Lord and of Christendom, so that God might see that we are Christians, and do not condone or knowingly tolerate such public lying, cursing and blaspheming of his Son and of his Christians. Second, I advise that their houses also be razed and destroyed. For they pursue in the same aims as in their synagogues…”
The Nazis even picked the dates for “Kristallnacht” (November 9-10, 1938) to coincide with Martin Luther’s birthday (November 10) to advance the nightmare.
Oh my… Lord, have mercy on us!
Two dark shadows of our past crossed our present landscape this week:
Kristallnacht Eve: Palestinian Flag Over the Reichstag Revives Germany’s Nazi Ghosts
On the eve of the 88th anniversary of Kristallnacht, the night Nazi mobs set Germany’s synagogues ablaze, a Palestinian flag flew over the Reichstag. For one hour on Sunday, the building where Hitler’s seizure of power began flew the banner of a national movement whose founding father spent World War II in Berlin as Hitler’s guest. A man climbed the 28-meter (92-foot) flagpole outside Germany’s parliament, lowered the black, red and gold Flag of Unity that marks the country’s 1990 reunification, and raised the Palestinian colors in its place. Police arrested him and two accomplices who filmed the climb.
And in yet another disturbing news story:
88 Years After Kristallnacht, Philadelphia Activists Ride to Mark Jewish Shops… for Removal
Eighty-eight years after Nazi mobs smashed the windows of Jewish shops across Germany and Austria, anti-Israel activists in Philadelphia are planning to ride through the city’s most fashionable neighborhood on Sunday to mark six Jewish-owned businesses for removal. Their flier is blunt: “No business for Zionists. These Zionist establishments must go.”
This is a WAKE-UP CALL to the nations! It is a WAKE-UP call to the church!
History is repeating itself once again. And this time, we don’t want to be on the wrong side of history.
As Christians in the church, we must be aware of our dark historical past in our dealings with the Jewish people, so we can repent, turn from our wicked ways and choose a better course for the future.
There is a day of judgment coming for the nations, and the King of Israel, the Son of Man, will separate and sort the nations: to His right will be the sheep nations, and to His left will be the goat nations.
May enough Christians rise up, speak out, and stand in support of Israel, so that America can still be counted as a sheep nation!

House Freedom Caucus Demands Long-Promised Conservative Reforms before Dems Bring Chaos
|
|
|
|
House Freedom Caucus (HFC) members delivered two tough-minded messages during a Capitol Hill news conference Wednesday that was by turns somber about the midterm election disaster for Republicans and pugnaciously determined to spend every remaining moment of the 119th Congress enacting conservative reforms.
The HFC is the tip of the conservative reform spear in Congress, with 31 members from across the country, including newly elected House Minority Leader Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), one of the co-founders of the caucus. Rep. Andy Harris, the Republican who represents Maryland’s 1st Congressional District, is the current HFC chairman.
Message number one left no doubt whatsoever that the HFC warned repeatedly before the election of the tsunami that replaced GOP control of both the Senate and the House of Representatives with a radically left-wing Democratic Party determined to bury President Donald Trump and his White House team in subpoenas, adversarial hearings, and corruption charges, and to enact unprecedented expansion of federal power, spending, and debt.
“You know this is not exactly a ‘we told you so’ speech, this is more of a ‘you told us so.’ This is a group that listens to the American people, and we’ve been listening for quite some time.
Message number two was repeated by every one of a dozen HFC members present for the Wednesday news conference and that message is, do not waste a single remaining minute the Republicans have as the majority in the 119th Congress.
Rep. Keith Self (R-Texas) laid out the issues that he and his fellow HFC members believe must get first priority in the remaining 53 days of the 119th Congress and for which no effort can be spared in the mission to enact as much of the GOP agenda as possible.
“The bottom line is simple: Everyone needs to stay until the work is finished,” he emphasized. “No packing up early. Codify President Trump’s border policies. Under no circumstances, amnesty. Act fiscally responsible for once. Pass the Save America Act. Get as many of the president’s nominees through as possible. The folks back home are done with excuses, and that’s what we saw on Tuesday. We need to clear the decks, strip the Democrats of every leverage point. Let’s bring the cots into both chambers and get ’er done.” (Washington Stand) Read more here.

Mighty Lord,
We come into agreement with the House Freedom Caucus members that the American people want to see the promises that the Republican Party has made come to fruition before the Democrats cause chaos and confusion when the new Congress is sworn in.
Father, everything that President Trump has tried to get passed, now has to take top priority with no excuses! We pray, Lord, that the GOP would stay united until all work is finished, including passing the border policies and the Save America Act! Lord, allow the GOP to push through as many of the president's nominees as possible.
Lord, we pray for Your will to be done in all these matters and we pray that the Democratic leverage that is coming would be minimized by the GOP getting everything passed! Father, give us wisdom and direction as we continue to work for righteousness in America. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen and Amen.
"He is in all things, and in Him all things hold together." (Colossians 1:17)
"See ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you." (Mathew 6:33)

DC gym shooting kills 1, injures 4;
gunman dead, sources say
|
|
|
|
An active shooting near Washington, D.C.'s Logan Circle has left at least five people injured. Police confirm the suspect is contained and barricaded at the scene.
|
|
|
A gunman is dead after shooting himself while barricaded by police in Logan Square apartment building Thursday morning in Washington, D.C. sources told Fox News.
The standoff between the gunman and police occurred after he shot somebody inside a gym at Logan Circle in Washington, D.C, and injured at least four others during the rampage, according to D.C. Metro Police and sources.
The shooter was identified as Matt Lambert, according to a pair of law enforcement officials and a person familiar with the matter who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.
During the barricade, while communicating with the suspect, police heard a gunshot in the apartment he was locked inside, D.C. MPD's interim chief of police Jeffery W. Carroll said during a Thursday morning press conference.
After the gunshot, police broke down the door to find the suspect sustaining a self-inflicted gunshot wound, Carroll said. Two law enforcement officers briefed on the situation told Fox News that they were told the suspect is now dead. The suspect, a White male, also fired at officers from within the apartment building, Carroll added.
Of the four living victims who sustained injuries, one is in critical condition, according to Carroll.
D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser, who joined Carroll at the press conference, also weighed in. "We're devastated. Someone was killed in our city this morning in a senseless act of gun violence," Bowser told reporters.
"I know many D.C. residents were awakened to this news, and were very scared, and listened to all of the directives that MPD provided, so we're grateful to them as well. MPD will continue to investigate this situation but this lone gunman has been contained," Bowser added. (Fox News) Read more here.
Update: One person was killed at the scene of the shooting, and another died in the
hospital. There are now four survivors left: three are expected to survive and the fourth has sustained life-threatening injuries.

For those of us who live in the DMV region (D.C./Maryland/Virginia), this was truly a terrifying morning. For several hours, many of us were "praying without ceasing" for the law enforcement officials as they worked to identify and contain the shooter. Although it was finally determined that the shooter shot himself, we are now grateful that this tragedy has ended.
We continue now to pray for healing and recovery for the four victims who have been hospitalized, with extra prayers offered for the one who has sustained life-threatening injuries. We pray, too, for the family of the victim who was killed on site. May our Gracious Lord have mercy upon us all. In His Name, we offer this prayer, amen and amen.
"Pray without ceasing." (1 Thessalonians 5:17)

Tornadoes and flash flooding hit New York, Delaware, Pennsylvania
|

A powerful storm system brought a dangerous mix of severe weather to the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic Thursday, triggering tornado warnings near two of the nation's busiest airports in New York, promoting reports of probable tornado damage in Delaware and unleashing flash flooding and large hail across the region.
John F. Kennedy International Airport and LaGuardia Airport were under a tornado warning Thursday afternoon after a storm with radar-indicated rotation moved toward Queens, New York.
The National Weather Service issued the warning at 1:14 p.m. ET for Queens, saying a storm near Rockaway Beach was moving northeast at about 15 mph toward JFK Airport. The warning was in effect until 2 p.m. ET.
Both JFK and LaGuardia had ground stops in place as thunderstorms and hail moved through the area, potentially disrupting travel for thousands of passengers.
Tornado threat spreads into Delaware
A separate tornado warning was issued for parts of New Castle County, Delaware, including Wilmington, Newark, Stanton and Newport.
Several videos shared on social media appeared to show a funnel cloud near Wilmington, and a tornado was later confirmed. (The Weather Channel) Read more

SpaceX is counting down to make history with the launch of its Starship Flight 15 mission on Friday, Nov. 13, with liftoff scheduled for 5:45 p.m. EDT (2245 GMT) at Starbase, Texas. Starship Flight 15 will attempt to land both Starship Ship and Super Heavy Booster. It will be the first-ever full recovery of an orbital rocket and spacecraft, if successful.
Follow our Starship Flight 15 coverage here as SpaceX completes its final prelaunch work for the launch, which will also deliver 26 new Starlink V3 satellites into orbit.

STARBASE, Texas — We are one day until launch of SpaceX's Starship Flight 15, and Space.com is onsite here in Texas prepping cameras and coverage.
Liftoff is currently targeted for tomorrow (Nov. 13), during a 75-minute window opening at 5:45 p.m. EST (2245 GMT).
This flight could be a historic one for SpaceX and the space industry. For the first time, SpaceX will attempt to catch both stages of its massive Starship rocket — Super Heavy just minutes after launch, and the Ship upper stage roughly 22 hours later, following several orbits around Earth.
I'll be covering the action from here in Texas, so stay tuned to Space.com for updates as we count down to liftoff! (Space.com) Read More
