Abortion was on the ballot Tuesday in more ways than one. Nationally, Kamala Harris’ campaign increasingly emphasized the issue, claiming that electing Donald Trump again would lead to a “national abortion ban.” And voters in 10 states had the opportunity to amend their state constitutions to protect a right to abortion. Here are the results. The Harris campaign’s claims were demonstrably false. Trump repeatedly said he would veto a national abortion ban if Congress ever passed one. House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., claimed that Project 2025’s set of policy proposals called for a national abortion ban even though the 920-page volume says nothing about it. Abortion took center stage as a long line of celebrities endorsed Harris. Trump’s victory, winning a higher percentage of the popular vote than in 2020 or 2016, showed that this strategy failed. The picture is different at the state level, where the abortion issue itself was on the ballot. In Roe v. Wade, the U.S. Supreme Court in 1973 invented a right to abortion that prevented states from enacting virtually any law to protect the unborn. Over the next few decades, 12 state courts interpreted existing provisions in their constitutions to protect that right. And then the Supreme Court overruled Roe in 2022, leaving state charters as the only source of constitutional protection. In the 2022 election, voters in California, Michigan, and Vermont added language to their state constitutions protecting a broad right to “reproductive freedom.” That step was cosmetic in California and Vermont, where the two states’ supreme courts had already interpreted the constitution to protect this right. But it was a dramatic change in Michigan, where the new language covered a vague category of “decisions about all matters related to pregnancy.” Ohio voters adopted a similar constitutional amendment in 2023. Which brings us to the 2024 ballot. Even if the line for prohibiting abortion remains the same, voters drawing that line in their state constitution makes a more significant statement than legislators doing so in a statute. With that in mind, voters in six states were asked whether their state constitution should prohibit any limitation on abortion before “viability” or, even after viability, when necessary to protect the mother’s life or health. The measure passed in five of those states: Arizona, Colorado, Missouri, Montana, and Nevada. Viability is a subjective term that designates when an unborn child can survive outside of the womb; generally, it’s considered to be at about 24 weeks. Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show that 99% of abortions occur before viability. Colorado, Montana, and Nevada already had drawn a legislative line at viability; Arizona had done so at 15 weeks. Although moving the line for permissible abortions from 15 weeks to viability might appear significant, the CDC data show that a 15-week ban still allows 94% of abortions. The most dramatic change occurred in Missouri, which legislatively bans abortion from conception. A slim majority of voters (52%) approved amending the state Constitution to remove this ban and allow abortions up to viability. In Florida, 57% of voters supported Amendment 4, which also would have prohibited any abortion limitations before viability. Florida, however, is one of the few states that requires 60% of voters to amend their constitution. The measure would have passed under a simple majority threshold, a dramatic change from the current six-week legislative ban. Maryland currently has no gestational limit on abortion and, therefore, voters adopting a constitutional provision protecting “reproductive freedom” didn’t change the overall legality of abortion there. Similarly, New York voters adopted a broad constitutional provision protecting women from unequal treatment based on “reproductive health care and autonomy.” This shift effectively legalizes 100% rather than 99% of abortions in New York state. Voters in Nebraska approved a ballot measure that will allow abortion only in the first trimester, but Nebraska already allows first-trimester abortions. Nebraskans rejected a separate proposal to protect “a fundamental right to abortion until fetal viability.” The margin for both ballot measures, however, was narrow: 55% voted to restrict abortion to the first trimester but 49% voted to allow the 99% of abortions that occur before viability. Finally, 60% of South Dakota voters rejected adding protection for abortion to the state Constitution. This proposal would have established different standards for restrictions on abortion during different periods of pregnancy, a complicated approach that the Supreme Court had imposed in Roe v. Wade but abandoned because it is unworkable. These results for the state ballot measures give abortion advocates cause to celebrate. The percentage of voters supporting the measure on Election Day, for example, exceeded preelection polling by four percentage points in Arizona, five points in Nebraska, six points in Colorado, and 11 points in Florida. The result matched polling in Maryland and Missouri. Even in Montana, where polling overestimated support, voters still approved the abortion measure. And even in states with pro-life legislatures, such as Missouri and Nebraska, voters chose to protect the right to abortion during all or part of pregnancy in the constitution, the state’s fundamental law. The pro-life movement always has known that its goal must be to achieve a life-affirming culture. These results show how much work still needs to be done.

Now that Donald Trump is officially the President-Elect, some are wondering if his presidency bodes ill for gold and silver prices. On the contrary, this is exactly what people “in the know” have been hoping for to keep precious metals prices moving forward just as they did in Trump’s first term. “Considering everything we know, it’s ludicrous to think Trump will harm gold and silver prices,” said Jonathan Rose, CEO of Genesis Gold Group. “Gold rose 51% in his first term. I suspect they’ll rise even faster in a second term considering the state of geopolitics today.” Precious metals have been consistently hitting record highs this year and the vast majority of analysts and bankers are predicting more of the same in 2025 now that Trump has won. Companies like BlackRock, Bank of America, and JPMorgan Chase are betting heavily on precious metals. Central banks have been buying up as much gold as they can for three years. “The economic world is very different than it was in the past when Republican administrations hit precious metals prices,” Rose continued. “If anything, I would expect prices to rise faster now that Trump has won because of the backlash that will hit the nation.” Genesis Gold Group is a faith-driven company that specializes in rolling over or transferring retirement accounts into a Genesis Gold IRA backed by physical precious metals. They can do so without tax-penalties and with little money out of pocket, allowing Americans to hedge their life’s savings against geopolitical turbulence. With U.S. debt projected to hit $54 trillion by 2034, BRICS nations pushing for de-dollarization, and the possibility of war on multiple fronts, it behooves Americans to consider protecting their wealth or retirement with physical precious metals. Genesis has put together a comprehensive Wealth Protection Kit and a Digital Dollar Defense Guide that give stellar insights about what to expect in both the near and distant futures.

Gold and Silver: “No one wants to sell at these make believe prices” I’ve been telling you for a long time now that Gold and Silver are vastly undervalued. I’m not a financial advisor and I can’t tell you what to do, but I can look at historical data and I can easily see that the current price of Gold and Silver makes no sense unless….it’s being manipulated. Now who would want to do that? And the more important question: will it go on forever, or do the manipulators eventually release the stretched rubber band and ride an explosion up? I’ve you’ve been paying attention in life, you know the answer. You know these crooks on Wall Street manipulate things down, then they load their boats, then they manipulate them up into a bubble. Where are we in that process right now for commodities like Gold and Silver? Right exactly where I placed that star up above. = You Are Here The Big Boys are loading their boats. But that’s not just my opinion. I’m a nobody. Listen to Andy Schectman who is an expert on these things and he lays it out PERFECTLY in two minutes. Here’s my rough paraphrase: “A concerted effort by the very powerful to use the suppression of commodities (gold, silver, but also a long list of all other commodities)…these countries are not complaining about suppressed low prices yet because they’re accumulating!  But once it becomes obvious that the availability of these commodities is very scarce and no one wants to sell at these “make believe prices” then the public says “OMG, what have we been missing?”  And maybe that all happens in concert with a breakdown of the banking system, then the public says “give it to me now” and that’s when you’ll see the circuit breakers be put into affect.  But at that point it’s too late.” Oh my! It’s so much better to listen to him explain it in his own words. It’s just 2 minutes long. Watch here (as presented by my friend the Digital Asset Investor): Comex 589 pic.twitter.com/uPzrOGXhZ5 — Digital Asset Investor (@digitalassetbuy) September 11, 2023 But it’s not just Andy either. It’s this latest interview over at SGT Report. Sean does such a great job over there of interviewing people on topics the MSM doesn’t want you to see, and his latest is called “$1,000 Silver — Seriously, Stop Laughing”. There’s actually a lot of history that goes into that quote and this was a great discussion by four very smart individuals. Watch here: I’ve been sounding the alarm for a while now… Have you taken action? As always, there’s one thing I always say and it’s never been proven wrong:  Watch what they DO, not what they SAY. Who is “they”? The same people Andy Schectman was talking about. Big Governments. Central Banks all over the world. Big Business. What are they doing? They are LOADING THEIR BOATS with as much Gold and Silver as they can find and they’re laughing all the way to the bank because they’re buying at what Andy says are “make believe prices”. Are you? After the Great Financial Crash of 2008, I made a decision. From that point forward, I would simply do what the Big Boys were doing. I would simply watch what they’re doing and copy it. Oh, and if they had Jim Cramer telling people the OPPOSITE (i.e. Cramer says Gold is a loser, but the Central Banks are buying with both fists) that was usually the perfect confirmation I needed. So that’s been my strategy since 2008 and it’s worked very well for me. Here’s more…. So, what can YOU do to protect yourself? To protect your family? To stay safe? Simple: you need to get some #Gold or #Silver in your own possession. It’s called “physical” gold and silver. Not paper traded garbage on the stock exchanges that isn’t backed by anything. Don’t touch that stuff. I have two special hook-ups for you. Both involve PHYSICAL gold and silver. Because if you do NOTHING else, make sure you own “physical” gold and silver, not paper contracts. The paper contracts (like stock ticker SLV and GLD) could very well go POOF one day and disappear or go to zero, because they’re not actually backed by the gold and silver they claim to represent. It’s a massive game of musical chairs out there and when the music stops (and I think it will stop soon…) people who only own paper might find themselves owning something not worth the paper it’s literally written on. And I know you’ll never forget it if I give you this GIF so….Let’s Get Physical: Now…WHERE do you get physical gold and silver and how do you know it’s real and safe? And that you’re getting the best price? Oh, and how about personal one-on-one real customer service? You know, like you were some Big Wig millionaire at Goldman Sachs who could just call their personal banker and get help? That’s what I’m about to tell you.   I have two killer connections for you… The first is for purchasing gold and silver bullion. That means bulk bars. That’s the cheapest and most economical way to do it, to stretch your dollar into as much gold and silver as possible. The website is called WLT Precious Metals and when you see my logo in the top left-hand corner, you’ll know you’re in the right place. You’ll get a personal phone call with Ira Bershatsky (or someone on his team) and they will work with you free of charge for as long as needed to answer any questions you have and get you taken care of. How about that! You don’t see that much anymore, but Ira and his team pride themselves on good old-fashioned real customers service: No sales pitch, just real, actual help. And the best prices you will find. Here’s the only disclaimer I will give you: because they do pride themselves on dedicated service, it might take a few days before you get a phone call back.  Just be patient. Good things come to those who wait! You can contact Ira and WLT Precious Metals here. Ok, that was #1. Now I want to tell you about option #2. An equally great company, I am so happy to be working with these guys. This next company is called Genesis Gold and this is for people who want to purchase real physical gold or silver in their IRAs (Investment Retirement Accounts). You know what the beauty of that is? TAX FREE baby! I’m not a tax advisor, but that’s a general oversimplification. Never pay more taxes than you are legally required to pay. And that’s why I love getting gold and silver in my IRA (and why I hold a large chunk in an IRA myself!). There’s so much to love about Genesis Gold, starting with the fact they are proudly and un-ashamedly Christina! They call it “Faith-Driven Stewardship” and they put it right on the homepage of their website along with a quote from Ezekiel: Wealth Preservation With Gold & Silver – The Genesis Gold IRA By your wisdom and your understanding you have made wealth for yourself, and have gathered Gold and Silver into your treasuries – EZEKIEL 28:4 Genesis Gold Group believes the Bible gives clues on how man-made currencies (paper money) represent instability, and a lack of virtue and encourages living wastefully in excess. Conflicts have beleaguered us since the dawn of civilization, and they can all be encapsulated into one battle. The battle is between currency, man-made paper, and gold and silver — the two precious metals found in our Earth’s crust, sent to us by our Lord to use as money. Man-made currency always leads nations down the path to increased war, greed, and ultimate collapse. History has shown that abandoning gold and silver has always been a bad idea. Gold and Silver enforce discipline, nurture self-constraint, self-reliance, and balance, and lead to confidence, a restrained government, and a more stable foreign policy. Genesis Gold Group believes in empowering faith-driven stewardship with Gold & Silver are an integral part of a balanced portfolio. Protecting your finances with precious metals has never been more crucial during these trying times. With a combined 50-plus years in the precious metals industry, let your Genesis gold and silver experts guide you through the simplicity of asset protection and growth with our Genesis Gold IRA. Sincerely, Genesis Gold Group Empowering Faith-Driven Stewardship Oh….and they’re VERY good at what they do. You also get physical gold and silver with Genesis, believe it or not!  The gold and silver is purchased for you (in whatever combination of coins and bars you prefer, a picture taken and sent to you, and then stored safely in a vault for you! I love what these guys are doing. Here’s more on why gold and silver in your IRA are so powerful: You can contact Genesis Gold here. They are also very backed up with record demand, so you may have to wait a bit, but someone WILL get in touch with you for personal customer service and assistance! Tell ’em Noah sent ya! Oh, and did you know Genesis is recommended by SUPERMAN himself? It’s true. Superman himself, Clark Kent — Dean Cain — came on my show a few weeks ago and we broke it all down: Watch here: Stay safe! Make sure you can weather the storm when it hits! Because the storm always hits eventually, doesn’t it? As for me and my house, we will be ready.

It’s happening.  In the hours since President Trump has secured not only the electoral votes necessary to become the 47th President of the United States, but the popular vote to move forward with a mandate from the people, along with control of both the House and Senate to ensure the successful passage of an agenda that will truly gut the federal government and return the United States back to a path of common sense, dignity, and strength — the country is undergoing a strange period of self-correcting just on the news of the change that is coming. Reports are starting to come out over the last hour that the Biden-Harris Department of Justice is ending all the lawfare against President Trump, and Special Prosecutor Jack Smith will be gone before President Trump takes the oath of office.

And yes — “they” are terrified. According to a Fox News interview with the Former Attorney General, Bill Barr notes that prosecutors simply will be unable to continue the cases during his term. The Justice Department is looking to wind down two federal criminal cases against President-elect Trump as he prepares to be sworn in to a second term in the White House – a decision that upholds long-standing policy that prevents Justice Department attorneys from prosecuting a sitting president. In making this argument, Justice Department officials cited a memo from the Office of Legal Counsel filed in 2000, which upholds a Watergate-era argument that asserts it is a violation of the separation of powers doctrine for the Justice Department to investigate a sitting president. It further notes that such proceedings would “unduly interfere in a direct or formal sense with the conduct of the Presidency.” “In light of the effect that an indictment would have on the operations of the executive branch, ‘an impeachment proceeding is the only appropriate way to deal with a President while in office,’” the memo said in conclusion. Former Attorney General Bill Barr also backed this contention Wednesday in an interview with Fox News Digital, noting that after Trump takes office in January, prosecutors will be unable to continue the cases during his term. Barr told Fox News Digital that a Trump-appointed attorney general could immediately halt all federal cases brought by current Special Counsel Jack Smith in Washington, D.C., and Florida. The charges in D.C. stem from Trump’s alleged efforts to overturn the outcome of the 2020 presidential election. In Florida, they are centered on Trump’s handling of classified documents after leaving the White House in 2020. BREAKING: Biden/Harris DOJ are ending the trials against Trump! We are WINNING! pic.twitter.com/FuO5P7Pr2s — Gunther Eagleman (@GuntherEagleman) November 6, 2024 That 4:34 minute clip shared by Gunther Eagleman is a perfect synopsis of the overall confusion and exasperation being experienced by the democrats and those on the left who have targeted President Trump in so many ways (literally, and legally) over the last few years.  They just can’t wrap their heads around the fact that none of it worked — and he WON. I want to give you a little pretext on all this.  Check out this clip from Benny Johnson talking to Mike Davis — a possible choice for President Trump’s new Attorney General.  This was yesterday, early afternoon, before the vote counting was far enough in to be “sure” that what we expected to happen was actually going to happen.  Listen to his take on Jack Smith. Mike Davis’ SAVAGE message for Jack Smith: “Right now you’re the hunter. After today, Jack Smith, you’re going to be the hunted: legally, politically and financially. So lawyer up, buddy!” pic.twitter.com/AubKsWeZoD — Benny Johnson (@bennyjohnson) November 5, 2024 Are we seeing this near instant change in legal direction simply because “you can’t prosecute a sitting President”?  I don’t think so.  I think they’re scared.  I think they’re terrified.  Because everything “they” have been trying to do against President Trump — every low blow and patently false slanderous accusation they have tried to pile on top of him — has come back to haunt them. He beat them, fair and square.  And this was not simply about a man.  This wasn’t Republican versus Democrat.  This wasn’t even conservative versus liberal, or leftist, or even just about the globalist elites trying to get America out of their way. This was a battle of two worldviews, diametrically opposed to each other.  One held corruption and lies and deceit and control in high esteem.  And the other held up freedom, liberty, authenticity, merit, and truth as ideals. We just witnessed the largest referendum on participation trophies since the fall of the Roman Empire, and we just saw the biggest up-vote on meritocracy since the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ — and I am not being sacrilegious, if you understand what I’m saying.  This is not about Trump; he said so himself many times. It’s about REALITY; and whether or not a skewed version of that reality is allowed to dictate our lives illegitimately. That is how big this is.  It’s bigger than we even realize, I suspect.  It’s bigger than one man, one movement — it’s even bigger than our nation. We just witnessed over the course of several months one of the clearest instances of God Almighty intervening in human affairs for His own purposes.  That’s my take. And yes… “they” are terrified.  Because they chose wrong.  And they played every evil underhanded card they could.  And now they’re on the chopping block. Kamala was right — Jesus wasn’t at “that” rally.  And that was the problem, from beginning to end. But I know a different rally that he darn sure was at.  And I’m extremely thankful for His presence and protection for President Trump, in so many ways, as we move forward.
