Plumber Finds Bags Full of Loot Inside Bathroom Wall of Joel Osteen’s Church


The New York Times reports that a plumber has found
"bags and bags" of cash stashed in a bathroom wall, which has been linked to a 2014 theft from a safe at televangelist Joel Osteen’s megachurch.  At the time of the theft, the church claimed the missing funds from the weekend services were valued at about $600,000, while pointing out “we’re fully insured,” and that “we are working with our insurance company to restore the stolen funds to the church.”  Sadly, that plumber also reports the church has so far ignored his request for information about the $25,000 reward which was offered for the recovery of the money.   

Gee whiz, $600,000 in loot just stashed away inside the church’s bathroom wall?  And, to think I get totally ecstatic when I occasionally find a five-spot in the dryer.  I guess we have yet another example of how “the Lord works in mysterious ways!”  Reminds me of that old adage “The Good Lord giveth, and the Good Lord taketh and then hides it.”  Talk about a "Christmas Miracle!”  Why, it’s almost enough to make loyal Osteen followers choke while drinking down their grape Kool-Aid!

    

All I can say is, it’s a damn good thing all these televangelists have such stellar reputations for being really straight-up folks, otherwise, one might think all this might somehow be connected to "insurance fraud.”  Not that someone stealing a boatload of cash, then not taking even one cent of it, and hiding it all away in the bathroom wall of the very place where they stole it, then leaving it untouched for years and years -  why no, that doesn’t sound the least bit unusual or suspicious.  


Gee, I wonder what else might be hidden in those sacred walls of good old Joel Osteen’s megachurch?  Of course, Osteen and wife Victoria are quick to claim “they don’t know nuttin about how all that dough got inside their bathroom wall.”  Meanwhile, ever the prosperity gospel pastor, Osteen’s been busy letting parishioners know that if they only pray a little harder and tithe a little more, they too might very well find a big wad of cash in their bathroom wall.  Why, because that’s the way Jesus rolls, my friend.

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War:  In a fiery speech, arguing that impeachment would disenfranchise Donald Trump’s supporters, defense lawyer David Schoen is being harshly criticized for his thinly veiled threat - warning that impeaching the former president could very well result in even more violence from Donald Trump’s easily enraged base. So, if I understand Schoen’s argument correctly, it sounds as if he’s implying that “if you bring Trump to trial, then that angry, violent mob who attacked the Capitol, wanting to hang Vice President Pence and kill various members of Congress, might get really, really mad again - and there will be reprisals.”   You know, we’re talking stuff like ”Nice country you have here - be a damn shame if something were to happen to it!”  In other words, Schoen’s trying to incite violence, in defense of a man who’s facing trial - over inciting violence.  They don’t teach you that in law school.   Now, is it jus...

Trump Using Divisive Topics Like Plastic Straws to Energize Base

Trump Using Divisive Topics Like Plastic Straws to Energize Base:  Using tactics such as plastic straws, wind turbines, bogus conspiracy theories and race-baiting, White House aides freely admit that Donald Trump has been deliberately attempting to amplify public tensions in America by seizing on divisive issues as a means to energize his explosively angry base. Now, I know what some of you are thinking - you’re thinking “now this, is the last straw!”  Well, before you attack the “straw man,” remember that Donald Trump was that kid in school who thought it was simply hilarious to jam two straws up his nostrils.  Straws were an important part of Donald’s childhood, so it shouldn’t be a big surprise they remain so today.     What all you “elites" don’t understand is that Trump folks are all about fighting for “freedom.”  You know, the freedom to be morbidly obese, the freedom to destroy the environment, the freedom to live without affordable healt...

Trump Commutes Old Pal Roger Stone's Sentence

Trump Commutes Old Pal Roger Stone's Sentence:   After declaring Roger Stone a victim of the “Russia hoax” perpetuated by the Left and its allies in the media, President Trump has commuted the three-year prison criminal sentence for the Republican operative and dirty trickster, who was due to report to federal prison on Tuesday after being found guilty of obstruction, witness tampering and lying to Congress. Good grief, is it my imagination, or has Trump actually just pardoned the real-life version of the Monopoly guy?  I mean, Stone is a villain right out of Charles Dickens.  Why, this is an act so corrupt, it’s almost enough to make Kim Jong-un and Vladimir Putin blush. Now, I’m no legal expert, but it appears what the Trump Administration is basically arguing is that - someone shouldn’t be punished for committing a crime which “they really should’ve gotten away with.”  And while that may sound a bit odd to the rest of us, that kind of thinking makes go...
