They’re really ramping up the vaccine push now, as reports of a surging COVID Delta variant flood the airwaves. The push is no longer subtle, it’s downright hostile. Just look at some of the headlines coming out: How COVID Vaccine Incentives Failed America (MSNBC) In Shift, GOP Ramps Up Vaccine Push as Resistance Hardens (ABC) The Days of Vaccine Lotteries are Waning. Here Come the Mandates (USA Today) ‘Patience Has Worn Thin’ Frustration Mounts Over Vaccine Holdouts (Washington Post) So what’s this all about? Really.

House Rep. Ronny Jackson, who served as the top White House physician under the Obama and Trump administrations, has predicted President Joe Biden won’t finish his term in office because of a lack of fitness for the job. ‘Something is SERIOUSLY wrong with Biden - and it’s only going to get WORSE!’ the Republican congressman from Texas tweeted on Thursday. ‘It’s past the point of embarrassment.

John Legend, Keith Urban, and Angélique Kidjo led a version of John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s utopian anthem “Imagine” at the Tokyo Olympics, which featured Legend, whose net worth is an estimated $75 million, belting out the line “imagine no possessions.” The Opening Ceremony kicked off on Friday with several artists participating in a rendition of “Imagine” — which asks listeners to, ironically, imagine there are “no countries.” The Suginami Junior Chorus and Spanish musician Alejandro Sanz were also featured in the number. Legend, an overtly leftist Hollywood activist, belted out the lyrics, “Imagine no possessions/I wonder if you can/No...

In a poignant episode of instant payback, or what the Biblically minded call possible divine retribution. The story began when Ben and Jerry’s, a Vermont-based multinational ice cream company, announced that it would no longer be selling its products in the “Occupied Palestinian Territory”. “Although Ben & Jerry’s will no longer be sold in the OPT, we will stay in Israel through a different arrangement,” the company announced on its website on Monday. In fact, the Ben & Jerry Board wanted to boycott Israel entirely but was stopped from doing so by Unilever. Avi Zinger, CEO of Ben & Jerry’s...

It’s just the flu, bro. I have been lurking for many months since pausing the daily Flubro thread. I have seen the chaos around the world but I haven’t been inspired to post as I live in Texas, which is the greatest place on the planet. In Texas there are no Coronavirus rules or mandates so I am able to live in freedom here. But I think I finally have something worth saying. I think I finally see more clearly what is happening around the planet and in many states in the USA. It isn’t exactly socialism. Socialism is essentially...

Sitting on the sidelines of the G20 climate summit in Naples this week, it was hard not to feel a sense of existential dread. Last year, I wrote on the cover of TIME that a series of developments - beginning with the trillions spent to help the world recover from COVID-19 and ending with the UN climate conference in Glasgow this fall - had made 2020 and this year our “last, best chance” to avoid the worst effects of climate change. Going into this week’s talks, just over 100 days before the Glasgow summit, the world seemed to be on...

Rep. Madison Cawthorn says he stands by his criticism of Dr. Anthony Fauci after the doctor appeared on Fox News and rebuked Cawthorn’s suggestion that legal action should be taken against Fauci. "Dr. Fauci broke his oath," Cawthorn told Fox News. "Not only his oath in Congress, but his Hippocratic oath as a doctor, to do no harm. I stand by my statements, and justice will be served." Earlier in the week, Cawthorn had referred to Fauci as a "punk" and a "pawn" of the communist Chinese government while also accusing him of lying to Congress.

I know my title sounds a bit theological. Why even bring up the topic of amillennialism? I do so because a great many pastors today subscribe to some form of this errant teaching that denies the prophesied restoration of a kingdom for Israel as well as the biblical promise of Jesus’ millennial reign before the eternal state. Amillennialism dominated the church during the Dark Ages and persisted long after the Reformation. The reason for this rests with three factors that fueled this teaching for well over a thousand years and remain in place today, at least to some degree. It’s...

The severe rainfall in Henan caused a major flood, resulting in heavy casualties in Zhengzhou and other places, which was officially declared as a disaster "once in a thousand years". However, was the flood really a purely natural disaster, or was it another man-made disaster? What tactics are being used by Chinese Communist Party officials to maintain stability and to shirk responsibility? On July 20, many places in northern Henan Province were devastated by a huge rainstorm. The Zhengzhou city was completely flooded and paralyzed. Videos on social networking sites showed many residents swept away by the water and a...
