UPDATE: Jim in now home. Although he was kept a day longer due to his heart being in afib, but that worked itself out fine. He's doing well, with surprisingly minimal limitations to follow. Mostly due to muscle healing from all the holes they drilled into him...lol. Thanks again, so very much, for the prayers. It works...God bless, and stay Bold!

Thanks man...he'll greatly appreciate your prayers. Heck, he's the one that turned me on to you, Bill, and the old gang of PJTV.

UPDATE: I just talked to his nurse. His surgery went well. He's doing great...and all the tests came back great. He was able to extubate him quite quickly. And should be up sitting in the chair by tomorrow morning. His nurse seemed very optimistic. And I have no doubt it was the prayers. Also, like what happened to me years ago, God preformed a miracle in the process. Apparently he grew new capillaries which is what kept him alive for quite a while. He experienced problems for some time, but the doctors apparently missed it. In my case, God moved my organs, so they would wrap around my appendix, when my appendix ruptured. I survived two weeks with a ruptured appendix, and the day I went to the hospital, it was Christmas Eve. After I awoke from surgery, my surgeon, Dr. Patrick Erwin said, he couldn't explain it. I replied quickly, "I know...it was God". The thing is, I was an Atheist at that time...trying to debunk God and His Creation. Guess He told me...huh? lol Thank you again for your prayers. It works.

Since I don't use any kind of social media apps on my phone, I don't have that problem. But there was a problem trying to find this post. I had seen in the notifications that you mentioned me 6 days ago, and every time I clicked on it, my browser closed suddenly. Fortunately, I was able to recover my open tabs. I was only able to reach this post by right-clicking, and opening it in a new tab. Also...you have WAY too many scripts on this page. Almost as many as BlazeTV. Which is why they have a lot of problems with their website.

I haven't watched Zed since he stopped using his Rumble channel.

I'm with you, I'm not trying to sell anything. It's going to be a lot harder being less diversified, but that's why I said I'd step up my promotional efforts. I am liking what you got going on here. Hopefully it will prove to be the best way forward, and others will start following your path. Maybe we'll create a meta site to link us all to our favorite Conservative and Christian commentators websites. IDK...but it could take the power away from those tech tyrants.

When I came to Rumble, searching for "channels" with your name, only brought up the one "Alfonzo Rachel" channel, that has only one video on it. Now, they include in the "channel" search, a few videos with your name on it. That's new. Glad to see that now. I get that it frustrated you...I do. However, you were way ahead of the others by going there. Now there are actually well over 80 million users. And you are your best promoter. As for sharing videos, I am guilty of not doing that myself. But I really don't use other social media sites much anymore. Selfish?...perhaps. I'll try to make more of a point to sharing your content on the platforms I am still using. For the same reasons as you, I felt it was a waste of time since those platforms, were and are still, shadow banning Conservative content. But now there are platforms that don't shadow ban. And they are growing in numbers. So I just hope you won't miss the wave this time. (so to speak) Timing is key brother. Don't blame Rumble for peoples, slow-to-react nature. The entire concept of leaving the main platforms was insane back then. Now they're waking up...it would be a good time to take advantage of it. You were on the right track, just way ahead of time. I don't recall you posting any videos from Rumble on Fascistbook when you were still there...If you did, then shadow banning would have most likely been the reason I didn't see it. I see a lot of video content providers that use both still posting their YouTube channel instead of letting them even know they are on Rumble. I suspect that's about the money more than the principle. I'm confident that's not who you are of course. I'm not a fan of having to check a bunch of different platforms and websites to see what I want to see...but I am willing to suck it up for the cause. lol What's a little inconvenience for the cause of Truth Justice, and the Biblical American way? lol God bless brother...I'll step up my promotional efforts. ;)

To be fair, your Rumble accounts are TZL, TZD, and ThatDudeZo...not Alfonzo Rachel. Which is what most people would look for...your name. I DID look for you, and couldn't find you, because I was looking for your name. Did you share your videos from Rumble on other platforms like Fascistbook, instead of from BlueTube? You were just ahead of Rumble's time then; ahead of the game if you will. But now Rumble is growing fast. Don't quit before the miracle happens. Don't forget how horrible YouTube was when it was as young as Rumble. Constant issues. On that count, Rumble is far ahead of the game. They still have their problems, but what can we expect when the Devil is fighting against our freedoms? I love what you're doing here...especially if you could eventually live stream the ZOpium Den and chat here. I'm 100% behind you on that one. But if new potential viewers don't see you on either video platform, then you're robbing many of the pleasure to know you. Depending on others to share your videos. People prefer to search as few of the platforms as possible, to find what they are looking for. Which is why people flocked to those uber platforms we are now fighting against. As the article says in the end, which is what I've been saying all along....(in so many words) "But don’t put all of your resources into one platform. We always recommend a diversified omnichannel strategy." I hope you understand my reasoning...and know that I only want others to know of you. Especially since you aren't afraid to speak of the Gospel message. God bless, and stay Bold brother!

You know that Rumble now has a "Live Stream to Archive" feature with chat? I really, really miss the interactivity that is an actual Bible Study. Which is what it was when you did it on Fascistbook. What you have now, is more like a Bible Teaching, but with interaction only afterwords. Rumble does not shadow ban...their algorithm is too rudimentary for that. Here's a non-political tech site that did an article about Rumble. You may find it enlightening as I did. God bless and stay Bold! https://imge.com/what-is-rumble/
