by Chuck NessWe find ourselves at the doorstep of Christmas again, so in the spirit of the season, and just so I can be fair and equitable with my political opinions, I have decided to share what I think of Santa’s political persuasion. Now, do not think that I'm putting a nonexistent, beloved, character on the same level as Jesus, I'm not. So lighten up all you Francis's out there, and try not to misconstrue the meaning of this article. I offer it as a simple, fun explanation of how I see Democrats and what I think Santa’s political leanings...

“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear” (Psalm 46:1). What a marvelous word — it’s just overwhelming. God is telling us, “Because of my Word, you will never have to fear. You can have peace like a river and a heart filled with gladness.” The Lord knows we all face deep needs and troubles. We all encounter turmoil, temptations, times of confusion that cause our souls to quake. God’s message for us here in Psalm 46 is meant for just such times. Of all his wonderful promises, Psalm 46 is...

We’re glad you’re here. If you are, there’s a good chance you’ve abandoned mainstream media and likely given up on other “conservative” sites who are talking about anything other than the rampant voter fraud that was used to try to steal the election from President Trump and the American people. But you’re among the few who have their eyes wide open to this coup attempt. The vast majority of Americans, even fellow conservatives, are under the assumption that Joe Biden is going to be the next president.Informing others is important because when President Trump is able to win, mainstream media...

Leftists know perfectly well that their oft-repeated mantra “no evidence of voter fraud” is false because they’re the ones who perpetrated or abetted the fraud last month. We’d find this out soon enough from Joe Biden himself if it were possible to inject a truth serum into his veins instead of the usual drug cocktail he needs to function every day. (A drug test before Biden gets security clearances might not be a bad idea.) Failing that, I want to explain why “no evidence of voter fraud” is a liberal con. While the concept of evidence has meaning in the...

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. John 14:6 (King James Version) In a year of uncertainty, we have finally come to the point of understanding exactly where everybody stands with the election. We have one side who wants to do everything it can to make sure the election was conducted fair and honestly, and the Dems want to make sure nobody knows what happened inside this election. Of course, you understand wanting to win, but shouldn’t they be just as interested in a fair...

Some people can't handle success. The latest jobs report shows that despite the pandemic President Trump's policies of lower taxes and reducing regulations continue to work. Raising taxes and imposing regulations, as Joe Biden has pledged to do, has historically had the opposite effect, but there are people who continue to deny the history, believe lies, and appear ignorant of sound economic theory. Yes, some businesses are struggling, or have closed, thanks to arbitrary orders from politicians, some of whom ignore their own directives. Employers added 245,000 jobs in November, down from 638,000 jobs the previous month. Overall, future signs...

CONCORD, NH - A convicted rapist and career criminal has pleaded guilty to an array of charges during the past two and half years all around the state of New Hampshire. Douglas Carl Smith Jr., 31, of Warner pleaded guilty Wednesday to a single felony count of aggravated felonious sexual assault, a single felony and two misdemeanor wrongful voting charges, a felony reckless conduct with a deadly weapon charge, a felon in possession of a firearm charge, and a felony duty to inform-subsequent charge as part of "a global plea agreement" between Merrimack and Sullivan counties as well as the...

A day after America witnessed its worst day in coronavirus-related deaths, Jimmy Carter joined three other living former presidents Thursday in encouraging Americans to get a COVID-19 vaccination shot as soon as it becomes available. In a statement, Carter said that he and his wife, Rosalynn, “are in full support of COVID-19 vaccine efforts and encourage everyone who is eligible to get immunized as soon as it becomes available in their communities.

Conservative activist Candace Owens torched Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) following comments in which the New York socialist insisted her work ethic is more intense than any Republican. ... In a remarkable takedown, Candace Owens blasted Ocasio-Cortez for suggesting a work ethic that nearly everybody in America has when they first start out in the job world is unique. She even referred to AOC as a “coastal elitist” suggesting her comments make her sound like a “spoiled rotten brat.” “I used to be a waitress and I worked multiple doubles,” Owens replied. “I am laughing out loud at how much of...

Researchers invent a novel vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser, the workhorses of datacenters and optical sensors.SummaryResearchers at the George Washington University have developed a new design of vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) that demonstrates record-fast temporal bandwidth. This was possible by combining multiple transverse coupled cavities, which enhances optical feedback of the laser. VCSELs have emerged as a vital approach for realizing energy-efficient and high-speed optical interconnects in data centers and supercomputers.The SituationVCSELs are a vital class of semiconductor laser diodes accompanying a monolithic laser resonator that emits light in a direction perpendicular to the chip surface. This class of lasers is gaining...

Monday on FNC’s “The Story,” Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) questioned the efficacy of the measures instituted by government authorities done so in the name of COVID-19. Paul, a physician and coronavirus survivor, told Fox News’ Marth MacCallum that there was no proof any of those measures were doing anything to contain the virus’ spread.

Editor's Note: This piece was co-authored by Lew Uhler and Joe Yocca.Each day since Nov 3 reveals more and increasingly disturbing revelations about the outrageous and disgusting attempts in six key swing states to corrupt the presidential vote and fraudulently hand the election to three-time loser Joe Biden. Not that you would learn much about these election crimes from the mainstream media who are busy shielding the truth so their candidate of choice can complete the steal. But the current state legislative hearings on the election in Pennsylvania, Arizona, Georgia, Michigan and Wisconsin are uncovering mountains of outrageous examples of...

Patience is gone.

The San Francisco Chronicle is predicting a “total restaurant apocalypse” in the San Francisco Bay Area as a result of the region’s new coronavirus shutdown orders, forcing thousands of business to close and lay off employees in the near future. The San Francisco region will be under stay-at-home orders for several weeks, into the new year. Much of the rest of California is also under stay-at-home orders by Gov. Gavin Newsom, though — for now — those orders will expire by year’s end.

Pray For the Peace of JerusalemLambs, Sheep, and Shepherds.Psalm 74A maskil[a] of Asaph. 1 O God, why have you rejected us forever? Why does your anger smolder against the sheep of your pasture? 2 Remember the nation you purchased long ago, the people of your inheritance, whom you redeemed— Mount Zion, where you dwelt. 3 Turn your steps toward these everlasting ruins, all this destruction the enemy has brought on the sanctuary. 4 Your foes roared in the place where you met with us; they set up their standards as signs. 5 They behaved like men wielding axes to cut...

In my recent Townhall article, "What if the Deep State Has No Bottom?" one of the commenters issued a brief roster of 12 deep state layers and below is my take on each of them. 1. Ignorant Youth – A blameless group indoctrinated to either hate America or over-focus on her faults. Students rarely hear about the greatness of America and what we've done for the world, let alone our own citizens. These youth eventually join the Democrat/progressive machine that seeks to rewrite our history and to make our populace subjects of the state and not much more. 2. Brainwashed...
