Violent riots led by communist group Black Lives Matter and Islamic supremacists break out in the city of Brussels after the death of Ibrahim, a migrant in Police custody. The migrant was filming police enforcing coronavirus lockdown measures at a train station. Ibrahim refused to comply with police and their requests to stop filming. Ibrahim fled the scene, but was captured by police and shortly after died, possibly of a heart attack at the station due to drugs he ingested. Ibrahima B. was arrested on Saturday, January 9th a little before 7 pm by inspectors from the Brussels North police...

Aspecter is haunting conservatism—the specter of a Progressive blacklist that seeks to expunge the Right. A string of President Donald Trump’s online accounts blocked or restricted his access following the deadly U.S. Capitol siege last week because of escalated fears that he may incite additional insurrection—what conservatives are calling the “progressive purge.” Since last Wednesday’s turmoil at the U.S. Capitol, Twitter has booted Trump from its platform, Facebook and YouTube suspended the president, and any Right-leaning Twitter accounts who championed a pro-Trump stance have either seen a drastic decrease in followers or have been kicked off the platform. Cautions about...

“Let your way of life be free from the love of money, being content with what you have” (Hebrews 13:5). If you are content with what God has given you, you will not be a person who is covetous or a lover of money. I once had a man come into my church office and confess the sin of gluttony. When I told him he did not look overweight, he answered, “I know. It is not that I eat too much but that I want to. I continually crave food. It’s an obsession.” Covetousness is very similar to that man’s...

Former CBS News anchor Dan Rather said Thursday on MSNBC’s “The Beat” that “the Republican Party as a whole and overwhelmingly has been playing with the fire of white nationalism.” When asked if President Trump should be held accountable for the Capital Hill riot, Rather said, “The answer is yes. Donald Trump can be made to pay a price. I would argue that it is absolutely essential for the general health of our democracy in our country that that happen. And we can get things under control.”

There’s no doubt that this is the largest Iranian warship to ever sail. But what is it for? Meet the Markan. What Iran Is Doing Iran recently commissioned what is by far their largest ship ever, the Makran, a former oil-tanker-turned-warship. The Islamic Republic calls the Makran a forward operating base ship, intended to extend Iranian reach farther out to sea by acting as a do-it-all launchpad that can keep helicopters and drones fueled and supplied, especially in the shallower littoral waters to the country’s southwest.

The government of Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte was set to collectively resign on Friday over years of mismanagement of childcare subsidies, lawmakers said. Rutte was to inform King Willem-Alexander of the decision and hold a press conference during which he was expected to outline how the government will manage the emergency response to the COVID-19 pandemic while in caretaker status. A new cabinet will be formed after parliamentary elections that had already been set for March 17. The decision follows a parliamentary inquiry last month that found bureaucrats at the tax service, with government oversight, had driven thousands of...

Last week’s outrage at the Capitol has fomented calls for District of Columbia statehood. Sen. Tom Carper (D-DE) explained that the riot “made it crystal clear why D.C. officials must have full control over their city’s own security and police force to secure the public safety of its residents.” So, then, statehood will strengthen riot prevention. But when Congress abortively voted for D.C. statehood last June, after Black Lives Matter protests, Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D-N.Y.) said, “Trump’s recent decision to deploy thousands of federal law enforcement officers in D.C. against residents peacefully exercising their constitutionally protected right to protest, and...

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced nine managers she has chosen to lead President Trump’s second impeachment, with Rep. Eric Swalwell among them. Swalwell’s inclusion is a bit of a surprise, having been named in a report last month indicating he had been the target of a Chinese spy. ... Swalwell has never been a serious member of Congress, let alone somebody who should be placed in positions of power. His latest rants calling Republican senators objecting to the election results as being members of the “Coup Klux Klan” and falsely alleging they were fraternizing with “terrorists” is yet another example....

Here we are wrapping up another week of no kraken. There was just a slight trickle of true facts that managed to slip under the MainStream KultureKlub’s lockdown and blockade. Facts such as this. Catherine Herridge, formerly of Fox News and more recently with CBS News, reports investigators think those pipebombs found at the RNC and DNC on January 6 may have been intended to divert law enforcement away from the Capitol itself at a crucial moment. That would also suggest somebody with a command and control structure for the planned riot.Herridge also notes that the crucial window for understanding...

D Delivering in his final days on one of his last unfulfilled promises, President Trump is declassifying a massive trove of FBI documents showing the Russia collusion story was leaked in the final weeks of the 2016 election in an effort to counteract Hillary Clinton's email scandal. The memos to be released as early as Friday include FBI interviews and human source evaluation reports for two of the main informants in the Russia case, former MI6 agent Christopher Steele and academic Stefan Halper. The president authorized the release of a foot-high stack of internal FBI and DOJ documents that detail...

Last year, I was on campus at North Carolina State University (NCSU) in Raleigh to attend a men's soccer game. Arriving early to find a parking space, I walked to the student union, known as the Tally Center, a marvelous four-story building with every amenity you can imagine. After touring the building, I left and walked toward the soccer field. Thereupon I encountered a group of perhaps 15 to 20 young Asians, led by an adult Caucasian heading towards the Tally Center. Presuming that they hailed from an area high school, I asked one of the students as he passed...

Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) undermined the message of “unity” from President-elect Joe Biden and Vice-President-elect Kamala Harris, saying there will be “no return to normal” for America in a message posted to social media Thursday. Pressley, a member of the House’s far-left “Squad,” made the remarks a little more than a week after violent riots broke out at the U.S. Capitol.

WASHINGTON, Monday, Jan. 14. A Cabinet meeting was held to-day, but no one knew the object of the visit of Messrs. HAYNE and HALL, who arrived from Charleston at 4 o'clock. Neither has seen the President yet. I am informed the operations relative to affairs at Charleston are suspended until to-morrow. On the other hand there are ominous whisperings that the President is receding from his recent firmness, and that no more troops will be sent to Fort Sumter. Another rumor is that the President is disposed to accede to a proposition from Gov. PICKENS for the absolute suspension of...

Check out this new footage VIDEO AT LINK........................ John Sullivan was arrested earlier today — Full Story Jade Sacker, who provided CNN with footage of the Capitol siege, celebrated with anarchist John Sullivan in a moment caught on tape. She agrees with Sullivan that it will be “the best film she ever made in her life” before asking him at the end of the video if he was recording. “I’ll delete that shit” Sullivan responds. “You were right! We did it,” she boasts. “Dude, I was trying to tell you. I couldn’t say much.” They are both quoted in this...

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi has been known for letting her tongue slip. She has often been quoted as “saying the quiet part out loud” when referring to her plans or the plans of the Democratic Party. Some have speculated she intends to let these little tidbits slip. That may or may not be the case regarding a peculiar part of a press conference she delivered on Thursday (10-29-2020). Pelosi said, “I feel very confident that Joe Biden will be elected president on Tuesday, whatever the end count is on the election that occurs on Tuesday. He will be...

It wasn't just Donald Trump's detractors who felt a sudden sense of relief when they heard that Twitter was blocking his feed after the storming of the Capitol and the disruption of the reading of the Electoral College results on Jan. 6. While President Trump's exact words to the crowd on the Ellipse didn't constitute a criminal incitement, they were uttered with a reckless disregard for the possibility that they'd provoke violence, which any reasonable person could find impeachable. But a moment's reflection should have left any believer in free speech feeling queasy about a private firm censoring the president...

[Note: This piece includes heavy video content.] A little late for this, Mr. President. – Not sure what he’s trying to accomplish at this very late date, but President Donald Trump is finally, at long last going to declassify a bunch of Spygate/Obamagate-related documents today.
