Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem (Music in The Bible) Psalm 119 Psalm 119[a] ט Teth 65 Do good to your servant     according to your word, Lord. 66 Teach me knowledge and good judgment,     for I trust your commands. 67 Before I was afflicted I went astray,     but now I obey your word. 68 You are good, and what you do is good;     teach me your decrees. 69 Though the arrogant have smeared me with lies,     I keep your precepts with all my heart. 70 Their hearts are callous and unfeeling,     but I delight in your law. 71 It was good for me to be afflicted...

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) blasted the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) on Sunday in a statement confirming that he would not attend the pro-Israel organization's annual conference. Sanders tweeted that he would not attend the conference due to AIPAC's connection to "leaders who express bigotry and oppose basic Palestinian rights," an apparent reference to the current administration of Israel headed by Benjamin Netanyahu, whom Sanders has repeatedly criticized in the past. "The Israeli people have the right to live in peace and security. So do the Palestinian people. I remain concerned about the platform AIPAC provides for leaders who...

The British government has unveiled the country's new, blue post-Brexit passports, hailing the return of an "iconic" document that became a thorny issue during the UK's protracted departure from the European Union. The first dark blue passports, which ditch the burgundy covers used by EU member states, will be issued in early March, Home Secretary Priti Patel announced on Saturday. Patel spoke of her excitement that "the British passport will once again be entwined with our national identity." Prime Minister Boris Johnson had previously praised the color change as a "wonderful thing" and bemoaned his "sense of personal loss and...

If elected, Bernie Sanders would crush American families with bloated bureaucracy, explode the national debt, and drastically raise taxes on middle class Americans. Manhattan Institute Senior Fellow Brian Riedl has calculated that all of Sanders’s proposals could cost up to a staggering $97.5 trillion over the next decade, and total government spending would bloat to 70 percent of GDP. The ten-year budget deficit would be nearly $90 trillion, and the government would employ nearly half of all Americans.Sanders would fund his radical proposals by raising taxes on you and everyone you know. Sanders has openly admitted that he wants to...

“My son, fear thou the LORD and the king: and meddle not with them that are given to change: For their calamity shall rise suddenly; and who knoweth the ruin of them both?” (Proverbs 24:21-22).

The man was fatally injured Saturday evening as the popular Krewe of Endymion was rolling, New Orleans police said in a statement. He was pronounced dead at the scene, and the Orleans Parish Coroner’s Office was to release his name and cause of death after completing an autopsy and notifying his family. The remainder of Endymion’s parade was scrapped Saturday evening. Police said 13 floats had already gone ahead when the accident occurred with the 14th float in the formation. Remaining floats that followed, along with marching groups, were diverted from the accident scene on Canal Street, a wide route...

Donald Trump isn't a fan of "Parasite." "How bad were the Academy Awards this year, did you see? 'And the winner is ... a movie from South Korea,'" said the President of the United States on Thursday night of the Oscar-winning, South Korean film. "What the hell was that all about? We've got enough problems with South Korea with trade, on top of it they give them the best movie of the year?"

Actor Michael Douglas hit the campaign trail on Sunday for former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who Douglas calls “the best presidential candidate in 40 years.” The Fatal Attraction star appeared in Bloomberg’s hometown of Quincy, Massachusetts, and told the crowd, “This is really, truly one of the best candidates we’ve had running for office in 30 to 40 years,” the Boston Herald reported.

Against the backdrop of a then pending OIG FISA report, in December of 2019 buried deep in the congressional budget Continuing Resolution (CR) was a short-term extension to reauthorize the FISA “business records provision”, the “roving wiretap” provision, the “lone wolf” provision, and the more controversial bulk metadata provisions [Call Detail Records (CDR)], all parts of the Patriot Act. As a result of the FISA CR inclusion the terminal deadline was pushed to March 15, 2020: FISA Court judges Rosemary Collyer (declassified 2017) and James Boasberg (declassified 2019) both identified issues with the NSA bulk database collection program being exploited...

In a recent town hall event, presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg took his turn swiping at Christians who support President Donald Trump claiming that he doesn’t see “any compatibility” between Christians supporting the president and the teachings in scripture.  To miss the moral decline of the 10 years prior to 2016 would be nothing less than turning a blind eye or political deafness. While mired in a devastating recession, moral decay was mounting with no recourse for people of faith. Federally funded abortion on demand was a machine raging out of control, our prisons were full and overflowing, and a one...

Went to see Call of the Wild last night. I'd like to tell you that it was a great movie, or even a movie worth seeing. I can't. In fact, at best it's very mediocre. From the opening you can tell that Fido is a computer generated figure, and that fact wouldn't bother me, if it gave you a Disney Like affinity for the pooch...but it doesn't. I'm not going to go into any details, only to tell you that if you need a movie to watch, there are plenty at the moment worth seeing more than this one. 1917,...

An Italian passenger jet was held in Mauritius over coronavirus fears today after Italy confirmed its sixth virus death in Europe's first major outbreak. Dozens of passengers from Lombardy and Veneto - the two worst-affected regions of Italy - were told to return home or face quarantine in the Indian Ocean country, airline Alitalia said. Forty of the 224 people on board eventually chose to return home to northern Italy where 50,000 people have been placed under lockdown, schools shut and public events banned in a drastic bid to contain the virus. It is not yet clear whether any other...

Well, it looks like the people of India love our President and FLOTUS almost as much as we do! Prime Minister Narendra Modi has organized a mammoth, 14-mile motorcade for the occasion that has earned its own hashtag: #BiggestRoadShowEver.” Indeed, the journey of the presidential “Beast” limousine and other official vehicles will roll through the city of Ahmedabad to be followed by a mega-rally with an audience of 100,000 friendly locals. The media has grimaced over such fare. Donald and Melania Trump stopped by the Taj Mahal Monday evening, capping off their first day in India with a visit to...

Pete Buttigieg: "We're just a few votes from Sen. Sanders, whom I respect and whose ideals we share but who has a very different approach, getting an insurmountable lead."

GENEVA (Reuters) - The World Health Organization no longer uses the term pandemic, but the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak remains an international emergency that is likely to spread further, a spokesman said on Monday.

Has Bernie Sanders ever lavished the kind of praise on the United States that he has heaped on the old regime of the Soviet Union, the dictators of Venezuela, or the Communist masters of Cuba? Has he ever praised the United States, period? When it comes to the United States versus its enemies, the guy is on the other side. It’s probably past time to take Sanders seriously and take a look at the kind of foreign policy he is most likely to pursue. It is certainly past time to get a clue about the deep meaning of Bernie Sanders....

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough on Monday called on Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) to get out of the 2020 race for the Democratic presidential nomination, with the "Morning Joe" co-host arguing that it would help "consolidate efforts against Bernie Sanders" by other candidates. "People are talking about how as well as she’s done, as good of a campaign she’s run, it is time for her to get out of the race," Scaborough said of Klobuchar before pivoting to Warren. "A lot of people starting to talk about Elizabeth Warren, who finished weak again." "She finished in fourth...

President Trump’s popularity is higher than before the Democrats' impeachment debacle began, and that continues to frustrate and outrage the leftists in our midst. Like Wile E. Coyote learns over-and-over again, no matter what he does, the Roadrunner just keeps tweeting on down the road at record speed. They’ve worked to impeach Trump since he took office and finally achieved it, only to have him exonerated by the Senate. They’ve mocked him, his tweets, and his priorities. They’ve drowned him in negative media coverage. They’ve called him a narcissist, a tyrant, and an uncaring fraud. But nothing is working,...
