LIVESTREAMING FROM the passenger seat of a car in San Diego, Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, better known as Tommy Robinson, breathlessly described the past year. Twelve months ago he was in solitary confinement, having been found in contempt of court for repeatedly libelling a Syrian schoolboy. In September, he claimed, he brought 1m people onto the streets of London for a rally (police say it was 150,000), beaming in a speech by the world’s richest man, Elon Musk. Despite criminal convictions he was allowed into America, visiting the State Department, which had given him a waiver, hobnobbing with congressmen and touring podcasts...

I'm looking for an old b-movie and am hoping someone just might have seen and remember it. Probably 1950s or perhaps 1940s. Black and white. The story centers on a Chinese woman who has been cared for her adult life by a western man. She was hobbled through foot binding as a child so has had to be cared for. Not sure, but I think the man has recently died leaving her alone, and she is telling her story to a woman who has come to help her. AI keeps suggesting Inn of the Sixth Happiness which is absolutely wrong....

How Safe is Sin? Consider today’s message: "It is all right to sin as long as you practice SAFE SIN. Drunkenness is OK as long as someone sober drives you home. Narcotics are OK as long as you use clean needles. Sexual deviation is OK since it exists, and so it should be approved. Promiscuity is OK as long as you take safe precautions. It is all right to sin, but please, play it SAFE!" The Bible gives the true perspective: "Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death ....

It's a powerful claim found in Scripture: “God shows no favoritism.” ...This phrase appears throughout the Bible, but one of the clearest moments is in Acts 10, when Peter says, “I now realize how true it is that God does not show favoritism but accepts from every nation the one who fears him and does what is right” (Acts 10:34-35). This is a turning point—not just for Peter, but for the early Church. A Jewish man raised within strict boundaries of culture and religion suddenly recognizes that the Gospel is for all people, not just some... It’s important to understand...

A university student died after being repeatedly stabbed by a man armed with a Sikh ceremonial sword, a court heard. Finance student Henry Nowak, 18, was on his way home from a night out when he was allegedly attacked by stranger Vikrum Digwa, 23, with the eight inch 'Shastar' blade. Digwa was caught on camera saying 'I am a bad man' before the fatal attack, jurors were told. He is now on trial accused of murder alongside his mother Kiran Kaur, 53, who is accused of assisting an offender. Prosecutors said she went to the scene before running home with...

Five Italian tourists have died while exploring underwater caves 160ft below the surface in the Maldives. The group had set off on a diving expedition on Thursday morning to explore the Vaavu atoll, according to local media. Authorities received reports of the divers' disappearance at around 1.45pm local time after they failed to resurface at around midday. During the search and rescue operation, their bodies were discovered. According to initial reports, the five tourists had boarded the 'luxury' Duke of York yacht, a foreign-operated live-aboard diving vessel, and they disappeared near Alimatha, one of the atoll's most popular diving spots....

My dear friend, Satan is no dope or buffoon. He is a diabolical genius who fully comprehends the inner workings of Adam’s fallen race and knows how to perfectly play humanity like a fiddle to fulfill all of his demonic anti-God agenda (Isa. 14:12-15, Matt. 4:9, Eph. 2:2-3, Rev. 13:4). He is a human hunter and a destroyer and knows exactly what bait to use to bring down a culture and society which has had the Bible and Almighty God in its beginnings and founding (John 8:44). As one reads through the biblical account of Adam’s fallen race one satanic...

….Some users on X have called the outbreak…a hoax designed to influence a new round of elections in the United States, or have falsely claimed that hantavirus is a side effect of the Covid vaccine. Others have warned about the possibility of lockdowns and vaccines, despite the fact that there has been no discussion of such measures and there’s no widely available shot on the market. … “The conspiracy theories from Covid-19 never really died,” said Yotam Ophir, who studies misinformation and conspiracy theories at the University at Buffalo. “They lay dormant for a few years.” Public health experts say...

In my home state of Montana, former University of Montana President Seth Bodnar is running for the US Senate as an “independent.” In Nebraska, the Democrat who won the party’s primary for US Senate this week plans to drop out of the general-election race and throw her support to “independent” Dan Osborn. This rapidly developing trend in Republican-heavy states is not about independence: It’s about big-government policies being deliberately repackaged for voters who have grown skeptical of the liberal brand. And the left is using party labels to mask what should be a genuine debate about policy direction. In American...

Lucifer is the despotic tyrant and oppressor of all of Adam’s fallen race. He fully understands the behavior of his unregenerate human slaves (Eph. 2:1-3; Heb. 2:14-15), and he is the “supreme hunter” of souls (Isa. 14:16-17; Ezek. 28:19; Luke 4:5-6; 2 Cor. 4:34; 1 Peter 5:8). Satan fully comprehends the fallen nature of humanity and our sensual desires, which are governed and dominated by our five physical senses. He fully knows how to manipulate, entice, bait, snare, and catch his prey for his twisted godless will (Eph. 6:11-12). He has been an “active observer” of the transgressions of humanity...

THE 200,000th migrant who crossed the English Channel allegedly checked into a four-star hotel just 32 hours after landing on a UK beach. The migrant reportedly reached British shores on a small boat last Friday before they were whisked off to the £134-a-night hotel in Hampshire. A Home Office coach took the migrant – alongside 69 others – to the Crowne Plaza in Basingstoke on Saturday afternoon, reports the Daily Mail. The outlet said the group were donned in a grey Home Office tracksuit and sandals and provided with accommodation less than three days after departing the French coast. The...

FBI Director Kash Patel took part in a VIP snorkel outing near the USS Arizona Memorial on his return from official visits to Australia and New Zealand last summer. As you can imagine, Washington's outrage factory fired up like somebody found a second Watergate in a dive bag.

Shedding pounds while building strength can feel like a delicate balancing act. Forget high-intensity training sessions that leave you drained for days (despite a high calorie burn). There’s a smarter approach: rucking. Walking with a weighted backpack burns calories, builds muscle, and boosts endurance all at once, bridging the gap between cardio and strength training. Low-impact and easy to scale, it’s an ideal way for men to stay lean and strong as they age. Rucking has long been a pillar of military training, moving heavy loads efficiently to build both physical and mental endurance. But you don’t have to be...

Prime Minister Mark Carney said Thursday that the best place for Alberta is undoubtedly in Canada, and his government is working to patch up relations with the province after years of bad blood over stalled energy development. The comments came at a press conference where Carney announced new policies to turbocharge the development of Canada's electricity grid, including deploying more natural gas-powered turbines to generate the fuel the country needs. The reworked policy breaks from the last Liberal government's climate agenda, which prioritized decarbonizing the grid to drive down emissions despite fierce opposition from the Western provinces of Alberta and...

President Donald Trump is expected to drop his $10 billion lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service in exchange for the creation of a $1.7 billion fund to compensate allies who claim they were wrongfully targeted by the Biden administration, sources familiar with the matter told ABC News. The commission overseeing the compensation fund would have the total authority to hand out approximately $1.7 billion in taxpayer funds to settle claims brought by anyone who alleges they were harmed by the Biden administration's "weaponization" of the legal system, including the nearly 1,600 individuals charged in connection with the Jan. 6 Capitol...

Amirizadeh's comments to the 'Post' came after Pope Leo bestowed a special honor on the Iranian ambassador to the Holy See, along with several other diplomats, for their years-long service. “Pope Leo XIV has brought shame upon the Christian world,” an Iranian-American Christian writer whose life was saved by Pope Benedict XVI after the Islamic regime sentenced her to death for converting, told The Jerusalem Post on Wednesday. Marziyeh Amirizadeh was sentenced to execution by hanging in Iran in 2009 for converting to Christianity and for apostasy. Pope Benedict's intervention, she said, is what led to her release after nearly...
