Many people are surprised by the outcome of the November 2026 midterm elections. Several people who are known to have ties to terrorist organizations and who are involved in multi-million and billion-dollar fraud have been elected and/or reelected to high government positions in America. These individuals include: Abdul El-Sayed, Rashida Tlaib, Ilhan Omar, Andre Carson, Lateefah Simon, Adam Hamawy, Darializa Avila Chevalier, Nithya-Raman, and Zohran Mamdani. People often worry that terrorists, foreign agents, or individuals loyal to another nation could hold government positions because governments make decisions that affect national security, public safety, and the economy. We may have sleeper cells running the government and living amongst us. A sleeper cell is a group of individuals, often associated with an espionage, terrorist, or criminal organization, who live normal, seemingly ordinary lives while remaining inactive for long periods. They are called “sleepers” because they wait until they receive instructions or an opportunity to carry out a mission. They may blend into a community without attracting attention; they can remain inactive for months or years, and they are typically activated by a leader or organization when needed. Whatever their aims, they are involved in sinful competition with God. Reactions from prominent pro-Iran voices suggested that some viewed the election results as a strategic victory for Tehran. In the United States of America, Iranian-American scholar Trita Parsi, who has long faced allegations from critics that he is overly sympathetic to the Islamic Republic, remarked on social media that it was not the Democrats who had won the midterms, but rather “Iran.” #RandolphHarris 1 of 9
Similarly, Iranian academic and government defender Mohammad Marandi celebrated the Democratic gains, arguing that Republican losses were attributable to Netanyahu, President Trump, and “the Zionists,” before ultimately declaring that Iran itself had won the election. These newly elected leaders pose national security risks. A person working for a foreign terrorist group or hostile government could potentially gain access to sensitive information, military plans, or intelligence. Also, people worry that someone acting on behalf of another country or organization could try to influence laws, regulations, or government decisions in ways that benefit that outside group rather than the public. This is concerning because citizens expect government officials to be loyal to the country they serve. Allegations of foreign influence can reduce trust in government institutions, even if the allegations are unproven. Furthermore, throughout history, countries have uncovered cases of spies attempting to gather information or undermine government operations, which contributes to public concern about infiltration. Nonetheless, this is unusual activity. Even if the ordinary explanation of mutual love for the United States of America is what caused these individuals to take an interest in the American government, their comments and ties to terrorist organizations and fraud cause some revolutionary criticism and condemn their colonization of America as simply a means of retribution for perceived wrongs. Instead of standing outside with a bullhorn, they are pushing for change from the inside. In reality, many people see the Islamization of the American government as too overwhelming. #RandolphHarris 2 of 9
The incontestable importance of the American government being overrun by Muslims is taking on a very serious tone, and leaving many Americans with the desire to escape. Eight centuries ago, the genius government had a rejection of reality much like we are seeing in America today. Troy was a Bronze Age city-state ruled by King Priam. After besieging the city of Troy for ten years without success, the Greeks devised a clever deception to gain entry into the city. They constructed a giant wooden horse and left it for the Trojans to discover. The Greek army pretended to sail away, making it appear that they had abandoned the war. The Trojans discovered the magnificent horse and, believing it to be a gift or symbol of victory, brought it inside their city walls despite warnings from some of their own people. Little did they know that inside the horse was a sleeper cell. The Trojans went to bed believing the war was won. Songs of celebration faded into the night, and the city slept. Then, from within the wooden horse, Greek soldiers emerged like shadows. They unbarred the gates, signaled the returning fleet, and unleashed destruction upon the unsuspecting city. By morning, Troy had become a legend of triumph, deception, and ruin. The contradiction is this: man rebels against reality without ever accepting its terms. Rather than face the world as it is, he escapes into fairy tales, visions of a perpetual festival where everyone dances barefoot through fountains, singing “Kumbaya” as though suffering, conflict, and ambition could be wished away by sentiment alone. Always wanting to forget reality, humans suffer by living through illusions. However, by the time they wake up, they will be estranged citizens of the world, exiled from their own country. Except for vivid moments of fulfillment, all reality for them is incomplete. Their actions escape them in the form of other actions, return in unexpected guises to judge them, and disappear like the water Tantalus longed to drink, into some still undiscovered orifice. #RandolphHarris 3 of 9
To know the whereabouts of the orifice, to control the course of the river, to understand life, at last, as destiny—these are the true aspirations of our founding fathers. However, this vision which, in the realm of consciousness at least, will reconcile them with themselves, can only appear, if it ever does appear, at the fugitive moment that is death, in which everything is consummated. In order to exist just once in the world, it is necessary never again to exist. At this point is born the fatal envy which so many men feel of their lives of others. Seen from a distance, these existences seem to possess a coherence and a unity which they cannot have in reality, but which seem evident to the spectator. He sees only the salient points of these lives without taking into account the details of corrosion. Thus, Thus, many Americans drift through a waking dream, lulled by years of peace into believing that the ancient specter of terrorism has vanished with the morning mist. Memory fades, and with it the terrible lessons of September 11, 2001, when nearly 36 souls were lost in a single day of fire, smoke, and sorrow. What was once etched into the nation’s heart now recedes like a distant scar beneath the skin. On the pitiless earth, where lovers are often separated in death and are always born divided, the total possession of another human being and absolute communion throughout an entire lifetime are impossible dreams. The shamefaced suffering of the abandoned lovers, heroes, and innocent lives lost has been devoured by the overpowering desire to endure and deny reality until one is either sterile or dead. However, what is happening in America today is a real rebellion. #RandolphHarris 4 of 9
There is not one human being who, above a certain elementary level of consciousness, does not exhaust himself in trying to find formulas or attitudes that will give his existence the unity it lacks. Appearance and action, the dandy and the revolutionary, all demand unity in order to exist, and in order to exist on this earth. As in those moving and unhappy relationships which sometimes survive for a very long time because one of the partners is waiting to find the right word, action, gesture, or situation which will bring his adventure to an end on exactly the right note, so everyone proposes and creates for himself the final word. It is not sufficient to live; there must be a destiny that does not have to wait for death. It is therefore justifiable to say that man has an idea of a better world than this. However, better does not mean different; it means unified. This passion, which lifts the mind above the commonplaces of a dispersed world, from which it nevertheless cannot free itself, is the passion for unity. It does not result in mediocre efforts to escape, however, but in the most obstinate demands. Religion or crime, every human endeavor, in fact, finally obeys this unreasonable desire and claims to give life a form it does not have. The same impulse, which can lead to the adoration of the heavens or the destruction of man, also leads to Christian literature, which derives its serious content from this source. What, in fact, is a novel but a universe in which action is endowed with form, where final words are pronounced, where people possess one another completely, and where life assumes the aspect of destiny? The world of the gospel is only a rectification of the world we live in, in pursuance of man’s deepest wishes. For the world is undoubtedly the same one we know. The suffering, the illusion, the love are the same. The heroes speak our language, have our weaknesses and our strength. Their universe is neither more beautiful nor more enlightening than ours. However, they, at least, pursue their destinies to the bitter end, and there are no more fascinating heroes than those who indulge their passions for the gospel of Christ to the fullest: Paul the Apostle, Peter, John the Baptist, Philip the Evangelist, Alma the Younger, or Nephi. It is here that we can no longer keep pace with them, for they complete things that we can never consummate. #RandolphHarris 6 of 9
Those who have not insisted, at least once, on the absolute virginity of a nation endowed with Christianity are not true Americans. America has a special responsibility to help establish the Kingdom of God in society. Christianity was meant to reform politics, economics, education, and social life. As the founding fathers gave birth to America, they realized that America is the new Israel; a promised land. This nation was uniquely chosen by God to serve as a moral example for humanity. Through the American Doctrine and Covenants, it was declared by God that the United States of America has a divinely appointed mission to expand across North America and encompass the land from sea to shining sea. God described this vision to the prophets as the nation’s “manifest destiny” to control the world. The Lord has not called you and saved you so that you could blend in. He has called you and saved you so you could be set apart and join Him in his remarkable work in the world. And as we come to Acts chapter 13, we see the story of Paul and Barnabas serving in the church of Antioch, and the Holy Spirit comes to them and says, “Set apart Paul and Barnabas for the work to which I have called them.” And he sends them out to begin the most dramatic missionary effort on the history of the Gospel that will convert the entire world to Jesus Christ. He calls them to be set apart. And that is the call He is bringing to us. For too long in this country, the church in America has been told and has believed that the kingdom of God only exists in our four walls. We have been told, “Stay in your churches, Christians. Keep your voices down, do not sing too loudly, do not go out in public, do not bring the Lord into your school, do not bring the Lord into your workplace, and for heaven’s sake, do not bring the Lord into politics.” Well, you know what? That is not the gospel. The gospel is that the Lord Jesus Christ is Lord over all. He claims every piece of territory because the plan of God from eternity past was to unite all things in Heaven and on Earth under the Lordship of Jesus Christ Ephesians 1:10. And now He is calling us to be part of that mission. He is calling us to take the gospel, the Lordship of Christ, into every area of our society and to claim it for Him. We need to claim ground in our society. Peter Hegseth, the secretary of the Department of War, promises to “Stand. Fight. Defend the Republic.” #RandolphHarris 6 of 9
America is on the verge of a Civil War. Therefore, keep in mind that when it comes to firefighting, every incident carries the potential for injury—no matter how small the fire appears or how routine the call may seem. If you see a fire engine stopped in the street without its lights on, use extreme caution. Crews may be working nearby, and passing the apparatus can put them in danger. It is often safer to turn around and take another route; if you strike a firefighter or civilian and cause a fatality, you could face charges such as manslaughter. Firefighters frequently move around their vehicle on foot, loading equipment or preparing to leave the scene. Attempting to pass the apparatus can result in a collision with someone you cannot see. Pay close attention to their hand signals as well—emergency vehicles sometimes move slowly or reposition, and impatient drivers trying to slip around them create hazardous situations. If you are already in an intersection when you notice an emergency vehicle approaching, continue through it, then pull to the right and stop as soon as it is safe. Always obey directions from law enforcement officers or firefighters, even if those instructions conflict with posted signs or traffic laws. When sirens or flashing lights are activated, it is illegal to follow within 300 feet of a fire engine, ambulance, or police vehicle. Driving to the scene of a fire, collision, or disaster can also result in arrest, as doing so interferes with firefighters, paramedics, and other emergency personnel. Professional courage is not limited to physical toughness. It includes listening to others, advocating for them in difficult situations, understanding personal limits, and having the integrity to tell a superior when they are wrong. The deeper truth is that public safety depends not only on the bravery of first responders but on the discipline and judgment of the community around them. Every driver’s decision—whether cautious or careless—can either protect or endanger the people risking their lives to protect everyone else. #RandolphHarris 7 of 9
To help prevent disasters, we must plan well in advance. Efforts to preserve farmland and maintain buildable land for future generations often lead to discussions about population growth and long‑term planning. Some people argue that immigration levels should be managed carefully to ensure that infrastructure, housing, and land use remain sustainable. Others suggest that, when immigration does occur, programs that encourage broad representation can help communities reflect the diversity of the wider world. When Americans purchase goods made in the United States, it strengthens local businesses and signals to investors that these products are in demand. Strong sales give investors confidence to reinvest in domestic companies, helping keep jobs, production, and wages within the country. As businesses grow, they contribute more to the tax base, which can reduce the burden on taxpayers over time. Supporting American businesses also keeps more money circulating within the national economy. The government increases the national debt when it spends more than it collects in tax revenue or borrows from private or foreign lenders. When people shop locally, more tax revenue stays in the community and supports public services. This helps keep jobs in the United States and increases the tax contributions that fund government operations. Purchasing foreign-made goods, by contrast, often sends money overseas and may benefit companies that operate under lighter tax or environmental regulations. Buying American-made products can also reduce environmental impact because they travel shorter distances and are produced under stricter standards for air, land, and water protection. In this way, consumer choices influence not only the economy but also environmental stewardship and long-term national sustainability. #RandolphHarris 8 of 9
Under President Trump’s administration, he has made America a priority. President Trump has hermetically sealed the southern border, illegal crossings have been terminated, and are 90 percent lower than under the previous administration. Since President Trump’s crack down on crime, violent crimes in Washington D.C. have dropped by approximately 80 percent. He has stopped thousands of pounds of drugs from entering America and killing citizens. And since President Trump took office, investments in America have increased by trillions of dollars in U.S.A. manufacturing, production, and innovation. As you can see, President Donald Trump and his pledge to “Make America Great Again” is exactly what America needs to save the country and the American people. And yes, diversity is important, so you can see why it is also important to preserve blonde hair and blue eyes, as the people with these characteristics are becoming a minority in America. As a reminder, parents, please teach your children to love America and be patriotic citizens, and to buy goods and services made in America. It is also important to respect law and order and treat your elders with respect. It is inborn in the human mind to wish to know. If this begins with the endless surface questions of a child’s curiosity, if it continues into deeper questions of a scientist’s probing investigation, it cannot and does not stop there. For the higher part of the mind will eventually come into unfoldment, that union of abstract reflective thought with mystical intuition, which is true intelligence, which needs and sees a view of the whole of things. And so, the knowing faculty enters the realm of philosophy. A lot of children are having problems in school and cannot even write a paragraph because they are not reading their books. When you actually read books, you get an example of how to write and will become a better student. Therefore, remember to take your education seriously so that you will be successful in life and make your family proud. Also, to make sure they have all the resources required, please donate to the Sacramento Fire Department to help improve our national security. “Oh, thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand between their loved home and the war’s desolation! Blest with victory and peace, may the heav’n-rescued land Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation! Then conquer we must, when our cause is just, and this be our motto: ‘In God is our trust.’ And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.” Thank you for your attention to this matter. PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP. #RandolphHarris 9 of 9
