    Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. Ye are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Matthew 5:13-14 Is there any doubt in your mind but what it’s past time to salt the earth? The reason they hate Trump is because the hogs from both parties swill at the same trough. One man alone tried to beat The Swamp. They mounted...

    At least 36,000 people have been killed and around two million displaced in the decade-long conflict in Nigeria's northeast The death toll in a jihadist ambush on a military convoy in northeast Nigeria's Borno state on Saturday rose to eight after two more bodies of soldiers were recovered, security sources said. Zulum was in Baga to distribute food to residents who returned to the fishing town two months ago, six years after they fled a deadly jihadist raid, said the sources. Local authorities have been encouraging people displaced by the jihadist uprising to return to their homes, saying feeding them...
  • Bypassing McConnell: Democrats push Biden to aggressively use executive power

    WASHINGTON - Democratic senators are calling on President-elect Joe Biden to use executive power to advance goals such as tackling climate change, relieving student debt and creating a more progressive immigration system. The calls from senators reflect a recognition that Democratic lawmakers may not be able to pass a transformative legislative agenda after under-performing in congressional races. And unless Democrats win two Georgia Senate runoffs on Jan. 5, Biden will be the first president since 1989 to enter office without his party controlling both chambers of Congress. "The president-elect, beginning on January 20, should act as aggressively as possible to...

    My latest book is titled "TRUMP RULES." It's about the one-of-a-kind rules that have empowered Donald J. Trump to become perhaps the greatest warrior and winner in the history of American business and politics. I'm proud and honored to report that, at this writing, my book is a No. 1 Amazon bestseller in multiple categories. But I'm sure millions of liberals, assorted Democrats with Trump Derangement Syndrome and never-Trump RINOS would ask the question "How is Trump a winner, when he just lost the presidency?" That's a valid question. I hope you're sitting down. Please buckle your seat belts. Here's...

    It’s just the flu, bro. What percentage of the increase in viral infections in the winter is due to viruses living longer in colder, dryer environments and what percentage is due to less free vitamin D from the sun? I am still not supplementing my vitamin D but I am getting my sun this winter. I am ready to kick any viruses’ butt. - Excess deaths are very low relative to April and May when Governors were busy forcing nursing homes to take COVID patients and doctors were inappropriately shoving a ventilator on every Coronavirus patient.

    I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Sidney Powell for several years. Let me say unequivocally that I would stake my life on her integrity and abilities as a lawyer. Sidney is one of the most serious, upright individuals you will ever encounter. Her towering physical stature befits a righteous Texan with a towering legal mind. I first met Sidney when she graciously agreed to be interviewed for a podcast interview I conducted of her while she was in Washington about her first book, Licensed to Lie: Exposing Corruption in the Department of Justice. The book is extraordinary for its stark...

    A suicide car bomb exploded at the western entry gate of the Afghan capital Kabul, killing at least three soldiers and wounding four others, an Afghan official said. The explosion on Friday targeted a government forces’ checkpoint near the gate of the capital Kabul, according to Interior Ministry spokesman Tariq Arian. No one immediately claimed responsibility, though suspicion immediately fell on the Taliban. The attack on the army checkpoint follows weeks of violence, including an attack by gunmen earlier this month that killed 22 people, mostly students of the Kabul University. The assault was claimed by the ISIL (ISIS) armed...

    Mortar shells slammed into a residential area of Afghanistan’s capital and killed eight people Saturday, hours before outgoing U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo held what are likely his last meetings with the Taliban and Afghan government negotiators trying to hammer out a peace deal. The attack in Kabul, claimed by Islamic State militants, also wounded 31 people. The assault came as peace talks were underway in Qatar, where Pompeo told Afghan government negotiators that the U.S. will “sit on the side and help where we can” in the negotiations with Taliban militants. Meanwhile, the U.S. military announced a sudden...

    His three children were injured. His majesty Boukar Béni is no more. The traditional chief of Satomi village, located near Tolkomari, was killed by terrorists on November 18, 2020. It was around 5 p.m. that the attackers entered his village. They went straight to the chief's field where the chief was dumping fertilizer on his onion plantation with his children. According to a local source, the lore keeper was already about to leave the field for his home when he was surprised by the presence of the terrorists. Without any form of trial, he will be killed, riddled with bullets....
  • Understanding the left’s plan for a ‘Great Reset

    American Thinker ^ | 22 Nov, 2020 | Andrea Widburg
    The term “the great reset” is suddenly en vogue. For leftists, it’s shorthand for using the systemic change flowing from the world’s response to the Wuhan virus as a springboard for remaking the world in a leftist, greenie mold. Or as Rahm Emanuel said, never let a crisis go to waste. The left has wanted to break the system for 55 years. Richard Cloward and Frances Fox Piven, two professors of social work at Columbia University, first articulated the idea in a paper for The Nation, entitled, “The Weight of the Poor: A Strategy to End Poverty.” Cloward and Piven...

    Hmmmmm I generally don't buy into conspiracy theories, but I had this thought that made me say "hmmmm." Follow me in this. The Chicoms paid the Bidens millions by way of Hunter Gatherer Biden. Then the Chicoms inflict the corona virus on us that gave the establishment cover to shut down our economy, and to inflict mail in balloting on us, which brought about the apparent electoral victory of the Bidens. What do the Chicoms expect from the Bidens in return? hmmmmmm.

    Townhall.com ^ | November 22, 2020 | Derek Hunter
    Every president has their legacy. George Washington set the standard for presidents, that’s his. Abraham Lincoln preserved the union. LBJ massively expanded government and helped destroy families. Legacies can be good or bad, but they are lasting and form how that president is thought of by future generations. President Donald Trump’s legacy has yet to be written, and if leftists have their way it will be as negative as anyone could imagine. But if there’s justice in the world, and intelligence, Donald Trump’s legacy will not only be positive, it will be lasting. If you read the New York Times...

  • Equality in Freedom or Equality in Slavery?

    American Thinker ^ | Anthony J. DeBlasi
    Contrary to leftist naysaying rhetoric, the Constitution of the United States provides the best legal instructions possible for insuring equality with liberty for all. That the Constitution is not always faithfully followed, even by Supreme Court justices, tells us that equality before the law can get corrupted into equality under the law, turning America's Law of the Land into an instrument of control by special-interest power players. When political passion fails to get restrained by law above partisan interests, it corrupts government and hurts the people under its rule. This came about in France during a revolution in 1789 that...
