United States Supreme Court Bombshells

Prior to its Annual break The United States Supreme Court delivered several bombshell rulings on several issues that have been swirling for years, but that have come to a head under the 2nd Trump Presidency. Allow me to place some perspective on a few of them.

Nationwide Injunctions:

In a 6 to 3 ruling the Supreme Court has partially closed the door on sitting Federal Court judges being able to summarily provide nationwide injunctions against Presidential orders...

"Federal courts do not exercise general oversight of the Executive Branch; they resolve cases and controversies consistent with the authority Congress has given them. When a court concludes that the Executive Branch has acted unlawfully, the answer is not for the court to exceed its power, too."

The opinion itself was chalk full of hypocrisy. For instance, in 2022, Justice Elena Kagan was against such injunctions claiming the harm and foul that a single judge could do against a lawful Presidential order, claiming that such was wrong...

“It just can't be right that one district judge can stop a nationwide policy in its tracks,” ~ Justice Elena Kagan 2022 Northwestern University’s School of Law

However, after signing on to the Court's dissent against an opinion favorable to President Trump, Kagan waffled and agreed that Nationwide Injunctions could be valid. 

With narrow exception in the majority opinion of the Court, it seems that the days of placing nationwide injunctions on Executive Orders will be a thing of the past with limited exception. This is an important issue as only 5 out of 94 US Districts produced some 40 nationwide injunctions against Trump policy seeking to undermine the power of the Executive branch based on political and not legal ideology. In other words, 5 jurisdictions claimed and decided that they should run the country...not the elected officials and those voted in office by WE THE PEOPLE. 

Birthright Citizenship:

Although a full opinion and decision on this topic won't be rendered until Oct. 2025, and was wrapped up in the nationwide injunction case, I would say don't worry Black folk...and don't listen to the alarmists...Black citizenship can never and never will be revoked!

As most of everyone already knows, the 14th, 15th and 16th Amendments of the Constitution of the United States were written EXCLUSIVELY FOR THE DESCENDANTS OF OUR ANCESTORS (Descendants of chattel slavery) whose parents were brought here as slaves. This has always and will continue to guarantee CITIZENSHIP to Black folk who are descendants of slaves born within in the United States.

What the interpretation of what has traditionally been called, "Birthright Citizenship" has done is allow all other nationalities and certain other persons, who have never had any relationship as a citizen to the United States of America, to PIGGY-BACK off of rights granted to Black Citizens to claim citizenship and rights under the United States Constitution.

There are schemes and strategies implored by all manner of people using these amendments to claim "citizenship" or a right to be treated a certain way...and...that IS NOT right! What is offensive is that people, primarily illegal immigrants to the United States, have used laws meant to bolster the security and standing of Black people and their place within American Society to bolster their own place and citizenship within the United States...what's worse, many of the same people, using and implementing laws, once again, meant to affirm American's Black Citizens, would never associate themselves with Black folk in any other way or manner. In fact in many cases, they would go so far as to claim that they were not and would not be associated with Black people, and in cases where there is uncertainty, would rather be considered White. 

Parental Rights In Education & Gay Rights Education:

In another notable decision, the Supreme Court sided with a parent of a Maryland family who wanted to exempt their child from LBGTQ education under parental rights and rules which they were denied at lower courts.

This was interesting to me, as I remember back in 2004, in MA. Dr. David Parker was
denied his right to opt his preschool child out of the reading of a book by Robert Skutch called "Who's In A Family" that endorsed gay relationships. The court held at that time that it was in the child's best interest to be exposed to education on a gay lifestyle, because, according to them, the State had more of an interest to educate the child on the law and legal situations such as being gay, than the parent did to withhold the child from what vicariously endorsed by the State. (my summary). It was a sad day and situation done under Republican Governor, and failed Presidential candidate, Mitt Romney. Thank God for a turnaround. 

Now, all this was right before the gay pride parades which have been basically male strip shows and ways for perverts to gather, mach and overall make themselves look like the freaks and perverts that some of them are. In fact, if heterosexuals were to do much of the same trash they do, we would be arrested and placed under the jail...4-Real...

CONCLUSION

In short, it is shameful that courts had to go through such and that judges, no matter who and where they are, feel and felt that they have so much power that the Constitution and Constitutional law didn't and doesn't matter, and that We The People are merely "subjects" or pawns in their game of power. 

To those drunk with their own power we say, THIS (your actions and views) are exactly why Trump exists and why he has gained so much success and power over you. You claim to stand for what is right and liberty, but you stand for the subversion of the masses to a vision fit for you. You do not protect nor do you hold dear your pledge of fidelity to the Constitution or to the People of the United States. 

Donald Trump, like him or not, has positioned himself as one who values and treasures the People of the United States. This is the basis of his success. Some will leave this blog because I point that out. Others will stop their support...and that is OK! There is no need to support this blog in any way, if one can't stand for TRUTH. The truth is that the elite, the proud, are an offence to God and will not stand in the day of judgement, and that judgment is not only before the throne of God, but it begins by exposing the elite and self-exalted for who they are...lovers of themselves and not lovers of God, nor mankind. 

Unfortunately, the church is situated in a similar position. Self-exalted with a focus on self and not on God. Lord help us and raise us up from our slumber for we are not fit for your use. 

"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;" ~ 2 Tim. 4:3

Glorilla & Gospel Music. What Is The Real Issue?

SEE: Seduced Church: The Prostitution & Sale Of The Psalmist

Since the rapper known as "Glorilla" (Gloria Hallelujah  Woods) was delivered the Dr. Bobby Jones Best Gospel/Inspirational Award for her collab with Kirk Franklin, Maverick City and multiple other  gospel artists at the 2025 BET Awards, there appears to be an outcry from certain gospel artists who have taken the time to cry "foul" to one degree or another. 

While some alleged gospel artists, have no problem with a rapper, who's previous claim to fame was a 2022 viral Tik-Tok rap entitled "F.N.F Let's GO", (whose lyrics are far too vulgar to state here) there are others who claim that there is nothing wrong with Glorilla having the opportunity to "shine" in the gospel music industry and that her appearance is a welcome addition to the gospel music industry.

Because of the apparent success of non-gospel artists in the gospel music space, others, like Deitrick Haddon, above, feel that Gospel Music, as a genre, is dying in its appeal to the masses because of the failure of those within the industry to respect the industry and recognize the work of many within the industry. 

I wonder where was all this "energy" when rapper Snoop Dogg, who has presented his secular rap music with equally or more vulgar language and messages, and also won the same award in 2021 for his song "Blessing Me Again" also in collaboration with respected, top selling gospel artists, such as the late Rance Allen. 

Since Deitrick was silent then (in 2021), is his interest now because of just being fed up with the issue, or is it because Glorilla is a woman, and he didn't want to fall out of favor with his "boyzz"? 

Then, there is "close the doors" Marvin Sapp, recognized as one of the highest charting gospel artists in American history, who in a rather lengthy facebook post, took the time to assert his opinion that the real problem was not that gospel music was dying, but that gospel music has lost its diversity, flavor, and appeal in part because of Christian community's bias and confusion over artists lifestyles, sins, failures and perceptions of "anointing". 

The following is my partial response to Marvin Sapp's posting:

"When we took gospel music, industrialized it, and gave it to secular individuals to promote it, what do you think would happen to it???
Why would the world safeguard and care for something that has been given to us and that we have been entrusted with?"

The truth of the matter is that gospel music, as soon as it was made into an "industry" and rooted in secular appeal, it died. Yet, there were and are presentations, concerts, tours and everything else, but it is as far away from the cross of Christ as left is from right. 

Secondly, far from the opining of Dr. Sapp, I believe that personal character and integrity have everything to do with the success and move forward of gospel music as a whole. To be sure, I am not talking about character flaws and idiosyncrasies. I am talking about sins and the deliberate ability to attempt to straddle the fence singing gospel while living secularly and in sin.  

SEE: Michael Tait Confession

The real issue is salvation and the church's inability to distinguish gifts, talents and abilities from anointing and the yoke breaking power of God. The church is enamored with associations and the ability to run with, be next to, and be in concord with "the world".

James 4:4 ~ Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.

Now, the truth is that "the world" and "the law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus" (Rom. 8:2) are incompatible. Not the mere material existence, which God has given us to enjoy. "The world" is the mode, operation and motive behind life and living.  Association with "the world" leads to compromise and exchange of ideals and values...That push and desire to compromise is the sin nature which is tied to "the world". As believers, we cannot run with it, in part because if we are converted or changed within our hearts. The nature of sin has been broken. We no longer want  sin to be the dominant part of our nature. As believers our nature, hearts, minds, and will should be changed, and reflective of the work Christ has begun within us. As believers we begin to "mortify" the deeds and sins of the flesh.(Col.3:5)

As the late Bishop CH Mason once said, "one can't be a little saved" just as one can't be "a little pregnant". Just as a woman is either "pregnant or not", a person is either "saved or not"! Of course, practically we grow in grace, (2 Pet. 3:18) but our love of sin and desire for evil associations, should be broken. 

Damage To The Kingdom

Then, what of the Kingdom of Christ? Like Gideon's idolatrous father, Joash, many contend that if God didn't want his Kingdom damaged then he would deliver those who represent his name. They would further assert that it is not our job to worry more about the Kingdom than God does himself and that a laissez-faire attitude toward all those who claim to be his servants of representatives is the best action to take.

If it were not for the fact that we are to "earnestly contend for the faith, once delivered unto the Saints" Jude 1:3 I would probably relegate myself to saying nothing or even attempting to shore up the faith of the readers of this blog, because what we are witnessing both in the so called gospel music industry, to the pulpit is a tragic shame. I cannot spend the time speaking on and or against the multiple, repugnant practices, doctrines and manipulative moves I am witnessing and have seen, but have not yet written about...I don't thing that there is enough band-width to reveal and rebuke the contemptuous acts that we are all witnessing. 

For sure, because JESUS prayed and paid for it with HIS blood, the church will survive. However, the exit wound will be painful. Many that started with us, won't make it until and to the end. Many are fainting as we speak.

So, is Gospel music dead? 

CERTAINLY NOT! The God of gospel music yet lives and HE is an should be the reason for the song and HE is certainly the reason I sing. However, that is a far cry from saying that God is pleased with what we see and are witnessing as the gospel music industry. 

I grow tired and absolutely sick of them, who give their gifts directly to the devil, in the name of "business deals" and in order to "promote the message"...It is  TRICK...it will not work. Only God can touch hearts and minds. Yes, I know that there is money to be made, but as the saying goes, "not all money is good money".

Jesus gave us the example...when satan tempted him, which was only done to prove to us that HE was without sin and could not sin, Jesus decried the challenge that satan could give him riches, wealth and influence in the world. In the end, without satan, Jesus stands and says, "behold all power is given unto me" (Mt. 28:18)...Not through or by compromise or anything that satan had to offer...It was GOD who already owned it all that Jesus reveals had and has the ability, control and authority over all things. 

Haddon is too far gone. He can see the issue and not perceive the real problem. Same with Dr. Sapp as far as I can see it. Then there are countless others who only see what the secular world and satan has taught and told them to see in order to judge the issue. Ooh yes, I could name them and nearly present an endless catalogue of misstatements, erroneous statements, errors, and flat out anti-Biblical diatribes flowing from many of our so called "Psalmists" on the issue...but why and to what avail???

What we are sure of is that it is time to REPENT and go back to the foundation and fountain of faith to find it again. When that happens, I am sure we will see a deliverance among the minstrels, (not ministers) that claim to lead us to the throne-room of God. They too, will lose their desire for sexual abuse, alcohol, drugs and other damnable and illicit practices...and most of all, feel the conviction about compromising the gif of God at the alter of satan. When we repent and when we pray there will be a change and folk will be blessed and saved as a result.  

To the church...

Revelation 2:2-5 ~ 2-I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars: 3-And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name's sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted. 4-Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. 5-Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.

Blessed!
