An attempted bombing investigation is now underway in Salem, Massachusetts, after someone allegedly threw an explosive at the Satanic Temple. The FBI is now joining other law enforcement agencies for this investigation. The device was left at the Bridge Street temple at about 4 a.m. Monday, damaging the building, Salem police said. Neighbors reported hearing a bang, but thinking it just sounded like a truck hitting a pothole. The temple wasn't open at the time and no injuries were reported. A staff member discovered the failed explosive about 12 hours later. Members of the temple said it's not uncommon for...

The Georgia criminal defense attorney who alleged an “improper” relationship between Fani Willis and Nathan Wade called out the Fulton County District Attorney over a speech she made claiming “Jesus” told her to prosecute Trump. Ashleigh Merchant, who filed a bombshell motion alleging Willis’ relationship with Wade, whom she appointed special prosecutor on the case, appeared on Megyn Kelly’s show Tuesday where she told the host that she “still [hasn’t] gotten over the church remarks.” “When someone says that Jesus himself told them to prosecute this case, how do you defend against that?… That’s insane. I’ve never dealt with that…...

The Italian newspaper “Corriere della Sera” releases several passages from Pope Francis’ autobiographical book entitled "Life. My Story in History," written with Vatican journalist Fabio Marchese Ragona, set to be released on March 19 by HarperCollins. In the passages released on Thursday, the Pope clarified that were he to resign, he would not choose to be called “Pope Emeritus” but simply “Bishop Emeritus of Rome." In that case, he would live in the Basilica of St. Mary Major “to return to being a confessor and bring communion to the sick.” The Pope clarified this possible scenario in case of his...

PETERBOROUGH, New Hampshire — Nikki Haley ripped GOP front-runner Donald Trump Saturday for confusing her with Nancy Pelosi — and claiming she had to scold her then-boss when she served as his ambassador to the United Nations. “Guess what, when you’re 80 you’re just not as sharp as you used to be,” Haley told a crowd of about 200 voters at the Monadnock Center for History and Culture, a museum in Peterborough, N.H. She mocked Trump for his Friday night gaffe in Concord, N.H., when he referred to Haley instead of Pelosi as he discussed the Jan. 6, 2021 riot...

With a nation full of crime, high prices, rising inflation and a bad economy, Democrats have very little to run on this presidential election. So more abortions is the pitch they keep pushing over and over again because it’s the only issue Joe Biden and pro-abortion Democrats have to rally their base. And Jill Biden promoted abortion in a new interview this week. Not only did she tout abortion, she said Joe Biden and Democrats would keep trying to secure abortions up to birth nationwide. Of course she didn’t use those words exactly – she couched that radical agenda behind...

There will be no musical festivities. No tree-lighting ceremony. No extravagant decorations that normally bedeck the West Bank city of Bethlehem at Christmas. With the war in Gaza raging, this is a city in mourning. In perhaps the most overt display of how Israel’s war in Gaza has dampened Christmas celebrations in the city seen as the birthplace of Jesus, a Lutheran church put up its crèche, but with a sad and symbolic twist. The baby Jesus — wrapped in a keffiyeh, the black-and-white checkered scarf that has become a badge of Palestinian identity — is lying not in a...

Tucker Carlson has warned that “evil” inter-dimensional demonic entities are influencing humanity in such a profound manner that the controlled environment where mankind exists can be compared to an “ant farm.” ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Answering a question about extraterrestrial’s, UFOs, and the spiritual war many are now finding themselves in, Carlson delved into what he believes is the true nature of these hidden entities. “They’re not aliens, they’ve always been here.

[Catholic Caucus] Archbishop Viganò: Bergoglio’s ‘blessings’ for homosexual couples show he is a ‘servant of Satan’Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò says the Vatican’s newly approved blessings for homosexual ‘couples’ show that the ‘Bergoglian hierarchy’ are ‘servants of Satan and his most zealous allies.’When the devil tries to persuade us to sin, he emphasizes the supposed good of the evil action he wants us to do, while overshadowing the aspects that are necessarily contrary to God’s commandments. He does not say to us: Sin and offend the Lord who died for you on the Cross, because he knows that a normal person...

Satanic Temple co-founder Lucien Greaves tore into Republican presidential candidate Ron DeSantis on Thursday and challenged him to a debate after DeSantis blamed a Satanic altar in Iowa’s State Capitol on former President Donald Trump. “Did the Trump administration’s actions actually give your organization a legal standing to have this display?” asked Phillip, to which Greaves replied:... Greaves insisted, “Our IRS tax-exempt application certainly never came across Trump’s desk. Trump wouldn’t have comprehended it if he had seen it, and I think DeSantis knows that. It’s just another display of cowardice from a politician who wants to play ignorant.” The...
