Thank goodness we have F-22 fighter jets using $400,000 Sidewinder missiles to shoot down a cheap, innocuous hobby balloon. Our circus sideshows have now taken to the skies. But no matter what the distraction, the inevitable collapse of the big-top tent can’t be stopped.

No need to worry about China or Russia invading when the pillars of Western civilization are crumbling from within. It’s not that the barbarians are at the gate, they are running the country.

We have been under a diabolical psychological attack of disinformation and fear-porn for decades. So many obsessed with social media, trapped in a morass of trivial nothingness, ignore every indicator that our national health is on life support.

The entertainment industry is being taken over by the Prince of Darkness himself. An openly Satanic display was performed at the recent Grammy Awards ceremony. Music videos glorify debauched and debased lifestyles. And the most popular streaming movies and series are about murderers, serial killers, zombies or a post-apocalyptic world.

Mainstream media promote the narrative that their government and corporate masters dictate. It’s pure Orwellian propaganda used to entrance and subvert the masses. And it works because no one is in the streets protesting their loss of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Plato said, “We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.” And since this is a spiritual battle, we must remember that Jesus Christ is “the light of the world.”
