FocusLBK Show S3E140: Is The Data Center Issue Coming to a Head?

Once again, we have a contentious two-sided issue: should Lubbock have a hyper-scale data center built nearby, or should it not? On one side, there seems to be aligned a powerful group of billionaires and tech bros. On the other side, regular people of every political persuasion, class, race, and religion stand together. Very few regular citizens seem to be in favor of these resource-hungry behemoths at all. Why then do we not get to vote on it? Why do so many powerful people seem intent on making it happen despite the will of the people? I explore these and other facets of what is shaping up to be a major issue that will be with us for a while.

The FocusLBK Show S3E139: Is All This Craziness A Run Up to a Huge War

Is all this craziness a run up to a huge war? I’ve long felt that the whole reason Trump was allowed to come back from felonies, impeachment, attacks by the intel “community” and however many “assassination attempts” there have been, is becuase he was being marked for a purpose. And I don’t mean “called according to God’s purpose”. The people calling the tune for him appear to reside here on Earth. Seems to me that purpose maybe to prep the United States for a huge war, and perhaps even lead us during that war. After all, Trump has nothing to lose now, since half the country has been calling him literally Hitler for almost 10 years. If it is remotely true that we are being prepped for a serious war, perhaps we regular folks should follow suite and get our tribes and food supplies in order?

S3E136: Guest Steve Taylor on Prison Ministry, False Left-Right Divide, Not Being Ruled By Fear & More

Today Steve Taylor, manager of Kingdom Towers Transitional Housing, stopped by the studio. We “chopped it up” about all kinds of interesting stuff including the belief that politics and media are often stage-managed productions. From Trump completely abandoning his base by starting a bunch of crazy wars, to questionable assassination attempts, and covid, most things seem to be orchestrated for reasons unknown to us. One thing is sure, when people in charge (on either side) use anger and fear to control you, that’s a good reason to stop, step back and evaluate what’s going on.
