Claim We Can Believe In
July 24, 2022 Leave a comment
Have you tried out claims that promise a change for the better and then found that they fall short of their ballyhooed benefits? Have you tried, say, using tooth whitening strips and gels and find that your teeth didn’t whiten as advertised? Did you lose the weight promised through a much-hyped weight reduction program? Has the COVID vaccine proven to be “safe and effective” and a protection against COVID as claimed by the CDC, Anthony Fauci and the media?
Have you given in to high-pressure sales such as the latter? Did you act without sufficient information as to the risks and benefits? According to the FDA, when drugs are advertised A product claim ad names a drug, says what condition it treats, and talks about both its benefits and its risks. An ad must present the benefits and risks of a prescription drug in a balanced fashion. Balance depends on both the information in the ad itself and how the information is presented. In this ad, the benefits and risks are presented to give a balanced impression of the drug. Did you see any of the required FDA ad information for the COVID vaccine crusade?
Have you voted for the ostentatious claims of political campaigns? A few recent examples include “Change We Can Believe In”, “Hope and Change”, “We are the ones we’ve been waiting for”, “This was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal”, and “We can Build Back Better”.
If you are into audacious claims and a Claim We Can Believe In, then here’s one:
“I am the Alpha and Omega, the first and last, the beginning and the end.” -Jesus, The Revelation of John 22:13
Before this claim is made by the risen-from-the-dead Jesus and before any of the seven “I am” claims stated in John’s gospel account, Jesus revealed empirical proof to eyewitnesses and taste-witnesses that would substantiate his incredible claim.
The revelation came about during a wedding feast. Without much ado (Jesus didn’t blow smoke about himself like so many have done to draw attention to themselves.), Jesus revealed himself to be the first and last of any sequence. The account is recorded in John’s gospel chapter 2:
On the third day there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee. Jesus’s mother was there, and Jesus and his disciples were also invited to the wedding.
The wine ran out.
Jesus’s mother came over to him.
“They haven’t got any wine!” she said.
“Oh, Mother!” replied Jesus. “What’s that got to do with you and me? My time hasn’t come yet.”
His mother spoke to the servants. “Do whatever he tells you”, she said.
Six stone water-jars were standing there, ready for use in the Jewish purification rites. Each held about twenty or thirty gallons.
“Fill the jars with water,” said Jesus to the servants. And they filled them, right up to the brim.
“Now draw some water out,” he said, “and take it to the chief steward.” They did so.
When the chief steward tasted the water that turned into wine (he didn’t know where it had come from, but the servants who had drawing the water knew), he called the bridegroom.
“What everybody normally does,” he said, “is to serve the good wine first, and then the worse stuff when people have had plenty to drink. But you’ve kept the good wine till now!”
This event, in Cana of Galilee, was the first of Jesus’s signs. He displayed his glory, and his disciples believed in him.
-The gospel according to John (the Elder) 2: 1-11
Water into wine. The first and last of a sequence and the transubstantiation of one substance into another. The sequence bypassed grapes, sunlight, soil, a winepress, and fermentation. We logically expect the process to explain things. How could science explain this? H2O changed from a simple formula into a complex mixture of chemical compounds in an instant.
John records empirical proof substantiating Jesus’s first-last claim – the wine-tasting done by the chief steward. We learn from the steward that the wine Jesus produced wasn’t the “worse stuff”. It wasn’t sour grape water. It was, in fact, “good wine”. The chief steward had no idea the “good wine” was sourced from the First and Last Vineyard.
“Ask any winemaker and they’ll tell you that winemaking is a complex business. . . the chemical profile of the grapes can also vary depending on how much sunlight and water they are exposed to, how quickly they ripen, their ripeness when picked, and on conditions such as the climate and the soil.”
Scripture gives insight to Christ’s threefold claim Alpha and Omega, first and last, beginning and the end. Psalm 91:1 is an example of the parallelism used in the claim.
You who live in the shelter of the Most High,
who abide in the shadow of the Almighty
The coupling of words deepens and expands the meaning of the words. “Abide” has a deeper sense of belonging than “live”. “Shadow” has a greater sense of comfort than “shelter” and “Almighty” has a greater sense of omnipotence than “Most High”.
Jesus claims to be A to Zed and more. Jesus claims to be the first and last of any sequence and not just what is a readily known sequence. Jesus claims to before the beginning as the beginning and after the end as the end. He claims to be the arché and telos. Jesus claims to be the source of a sequence and the goal of a sequence. The most extraordinary deed ever recorded substantiates his claim.
John wants the readers of his gospel account to know that this most extraordinary deed of Jesus is archetypal of what Jesus will do and is sourced in who he is.
This event, in Cana of Galilee, was the arché of Jesus’s signs.
Colossians 1:15-17
Now Christ is the visible expression of the invisible God. He existed before creation began, for it was through him that everything was made, whether spiritual or material, seen or unseen. Through him, and for him, also, were created power and dominion, ownership and authority. In fact, every single thing was created through, and for him. He is both the first principle and the upholding principle of the whole scheme of creation.
The first and last sequence, the beginning and end, the sustaining principle and destiny of all things is a person. The arché and telos of every level of reality is a person. Living water and new wine is a person.
NB: John opened this account with “On the third day . . .”, a reference to another extraordinary sequence completed in Christ – the resurrection.
More than a Claim to Believe In was confirmed at the Cana wedding. I see the love of Christ demonstrated. Without calling attention to himself, Jesus acted to bless the wedding and keep the bride and groom as the focus of the celebration. He acted behind the scenes to uphold the whole scheme of creation.

“An accomplished litigator, Kennedy seeks to persuade jurors who purchased his book that the “real” Anthony Fauci is a “serial liar,” a “corrupt,” “vindictive,” and “disingenuous” “fraud,” who ingratiated himself to a “servile” press as well as all seven presidents who took his public health advice. According to Kennedy, Anthony Fauci remains the undisputed “ringmaster” presiding over a “Ministry of Fear” whose “tentacles” now reach into almost every powerful organization in the world.”

“The World Health Organization (WHO) has been pushing forward with preparations for an agreement to create a global health governance. Although it has been referred to as a “pandemic treaty,” it’s been openly discussed that the agreement should cover much more. . .
Nowhere has this been described as an agreement that would only be in effect in case of a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC), but it would instead set up standing surveillance methods in attempts to prevent another pandemic.”

“The Russia Hoax was a lie that was knowingly created by the Obama Administration to undermine the legitimacy and power of the duly elected President of the United States, Donald Trump.” – DNI Tulsi Gabbard
Ruse Rollout
A July 24, 2025 report from revolver:
Tulsi Gabbard just dropped a nuclear truth bomb, and it might go down as one of the most important six-minute press conferences in US political history.
In this presser, Tulsi doesn’t speculate or theorize. She’s got actual receipts.
She explains that the intel presented to Obama and his top brass in 2016 made it painfully clear:
-Putin was NOT backing Trump.
-He was convinced Hillary would win.
-He was holding “blackmail-level” dirt on her for when she took office.
-Including the explosive revelation that Hillary Clinton appeared to be a bipolar mess, drugged up on tranquilizers.
We’re not talking about some run-of-the-mill dirty politics game. This appears to be a criminal conspiracy that ran straight through the heart of the Obama regime. (Emphasis mine.)
Read the Russia collusion memos President Trump declassified and Kash Patel gave to Congress
DNI Tulsi Gabbard breaks it all down for us:
🧵 New evidence has emerged of the most egregious weaponization and politicization of intelligence in American history. Per President @realDonaldTrump’s directive, I have declassified a @HouseIntel oversight majority staff report that exposes how the Obama Administration manufactured the January 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment that they knew was false, promoting the LIE that Vladimir Putin and the Russian government helped President Trump win the 2016 election.
In doing so, they conspired to subvert the will of the American people, working with their partners in the media to promote the lie, in order to undermine the legitimacy of President Trump, essentially enacting a years-long coup against him.
Here are the top Obama Russia Hoax lies debunked by today’s release:
dni.gov/files/ODNI/doc…
Together, the @ODNIgov records released on Friday, the @TheJusticeDept’s June 2018 report known as the “Clinton annex” released earlier this week, and the @HouseIntel oversight report we released today confirm what many Americans have known: The Russia Hoax was a lie that was knowingly created by the Obama Administration to undermine the legitimacy and power of the duly elected President of the United States, Donald Trump.
Update — Tulsi Gabbard releases new files on Obamagate.
20 CIA and FBI agents CONFIRM Obama was behind Russia Hoax and reveal his hiding place…
In a Racket News article Russiagate Explained: The Sins of the 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment Greg Collard notes notable problems regarding the Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) at the heart of the lie:
Citing intelligence findings that don’t exist
The ICA report says, “We assess that Russian leaders never entirely abandoned hope for a defeat of Secretary Clinton.” However, the intelligences the ICA cites to make that conclusion report does not say that. The raw intelligence, the HPSCI report says:
Does not state— not does it infer—that Russian leaders “never abandoned hope” for defeating Clinton, nor does it even use the word “hope” or similar phrasing.
Does not in any way describe the aspirations, plans or intentions of Putin or other Russian leaders.
Does not describe Putin’s “aspiration to help Trump’s chances of victory” nor does it propose contrasting Clinton unfavorably to Trump.
Margot Cleveland and Mollie Hemingway of The Federalist in their report EXCLUSIVE: ‘This Should NOT Be Included’ — Read Intel Officials’ Objections To ‘Extremely Sketchy’ Steele Dossier:
Senior intelligence officials strenuously fought the demands of former FBI Director James Comey and other Obama intelligence chiefs to include the false and unverified Steele dossier in an official assessment of Russian activities ordered by President Barack Obama in the closing weeks of his presidency, records reviewed exclusively by The Federalist show. The records, which are related to ongoing criminal investigations into Comey and other top intelligence officials for their roles in launching the Russia collusion hoax, provide damning evidence of Obama intelligence chiefs’ malfeasance beyond the explosive information released Wednesday by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard. . .
With their complicity in peddling the Russia-collusion hoax, no wonder then that the legacy media refuse to report on the recent revelations concerning the manipulation of the ICA. (Emphasis mine.)
Garth Kant, Senior Press Secretary of the Ohio Senate Majority Caucus, in his November 1, 2024 article GANG THAT INVENTED THE RUSSIA HOAX IS BEHIND ISSUE 1: Fact-checking the Democrats’ Plan to Gut the Ohio Constitution states that
Marc Elias invented the hoax that President Trump colluded with Russia.
As lawyer for the Hillary Clinton presidential campaign in 2016, Elias hired Fusion GPS to collect the phony opposition research on Trump that became known as the Russia dossier. It was debunked by the Mueller report.

Ruse Repeated
The MSM perpetuated the lie like the intelligentsia operating under Vladimir Lenin: ‘A lie told often enough becomes the truth.’
Remember Joe Biden’s “Democracy!” election interference speech?
Remember this misdirection projection psyop put on by local news meant to keep eyes away from what Obama and his henchmen were doing?
From John Fleetwood.com:
U.S. National Intelligence Director Confirms Media PSYOP ‘Operation Mockingbird’ Still Targeting Americans (Video)
DNI Tulsi Gabbard says intel agencies are using media to subvert Trump and manipulate public opinion.
The question isn’t whether the government is manipulating Americans, but how they’re doing it right now—through intelligence leaks, media collusion, psychological tactics, and taxpayer-funded propaganda.
Today’s propaganda apparatus now includes:
-Leaked narratives from intel to legacy media
-AI-powered censorship tools on social platforms
-CDC-funded influencer campaigns targeting youth
-Federal surveillance partnerships with tech giants
-Coerced public health compliance through fear psychology
So, it’s not surprising that the majority of deluded Dems still believe the Russia collusion hoax was real. Democrats live for lies and the liars who promote them (COVID origination and mitigation, Anthony Fauci and Francis Collins, Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin efficacy, Climate Crisis hoax, Democratic Socialism, Obama, James Comey, John Brennan, James Clapper et al).
And Never Trumpers, full of themselves, refuse to learn.
The Russia Hoax and the Hunter Laptop as Russia Disinformation Hoax supported the Big Lie.
The Big Lie – “Trump is a threat to Democracy” – was and is repeated over and over again in the media. It is told so that people will not see that Democracy is threatened by the corrupt Democrat party, deep state operatives, and Never Trumpers like self-described Christian conservative David French and others of his ilk.
To wit: NYT Columnist and self-described Christian conservative David Brooks wrote an opinion column openly and explicitly calling for a mass uprising alluding to a Communist revolution. Along with the MSM, David is “extremely dangerous to our democracy.”
There is nothing of Jesus in the words of David French or David Brooks. They both use Jesus like a lawyer who will back up what they say.
Ruse Ruination
Desperate to despoil Democracy for the sake of amassing sole power, Obama and senior members of his administration contrived a coordinated, multi-agency coup attempt against Donald Trump.
Obama and deep state intel that included James Comey, John Brennan, and James Clapper, treasonously conspired to manipulate election results with a Trump-Russia collusion lie. In doing so they showed contempt for democracy and the American people.
With the release of information regarding the Russian-Hoax and the Hunter Laptop Hoax and new information it is very plausible to see the assassination of JFK as a coup and Watergate and the removal of Nixon as a coup and the stolen 2020 election that let in the unfit Biden and his “extremist” denunciation of half the country and 20+ million illegal migrants as a coup.
The Russian Hoax was an attempted coup and so was Gen. Mark Milley’s attempted military coup while Trump was in office.
There are many families like my own, destroyed completely by the Democrats’ illegal zeal to Get Trump at any cost. During Russiagate and the subsequent hoaxes, I screamed at the top of my lungs on television several times each week as my wife and daughters lived in fear in our Buffalo-area home. . .
All of us [Russia hoax Remnants] agree the original Russiagate conspiracy continues even today. The Russia hoax was created by Hillary Clinton aide Jake Sullivan, who carries on with his lies today as President Joe Biden’s national security advisor. Christopher Steele, the British spy hired by Clinton to create the dodgy dossier, and his Fusion GPS co-conspirator Glenn Simpson are still doing the same work for similar clients. Andrew Weissmann, Peter Strzok, John Brennan, and more still peddle their lies. Elements of the original conspiracy were woven into Ukrainian meddling in the 2016 American election, then bogus Trump impeachments, January 6th prosecutions, anti-Trump lawfare, and Special Counsel Jack Smith’s Mar-a-lago raid. (Emphasis mine.)
