The promotion of Biblical interpretations serving secular, liberal political agendas of sex and race is only the latest manifestation of a centuries-old trend.The Bible makes no explicit condemnations of transgenderism. It makes no claims as to the morality of abortion. It encourages racial reparations. Such claims can be found virtually everywhere in corporate media like the Washington Post, New York Times, or CNN, which seek to promote the various political objectives of the Democratic Party. During his campaign for president, Episcopalian Pete Buttigieg argued that Jesus never mentioned abortion and that Bible verses censuring homosexuality were culturally conditioned, not eternal...

Back in 2015, Joe Biden went viral after he was video taped groping Senator Steve Daines’ niece on C-Span while meeting with his family for his swearing-in ceremony. The girl, Maria Piacesi who was only eight years old at the time, was filmed standing in front of then Vice President Biden as he ran his hands up and down her upper body. Six years later, Maria Piacesi is finally speaking out. Citizen journalist Jonathan Pasetti recently shared screenshots of a conversation he had with Maria Piacesi on social media app Tik Tok where she admits that President Joe Biden pinched...

The current spread of the COVID-19 delta variant has caused the New York International Auto Show to cancel its annual event, The Associated Press reported. The show organizers announced Wednesday that the recent wave of infections and current COVID-19 restrictions state officials have enforced led to the cancellation of the event, according to the AP. “Over the past few weeks, especially within the past few days, circumstances have changed, making it more difficult to create an event at the high standard that we and our clients expect,” the show's president Mark Schienberg said.

“A thing may be too sad to be believed or too wicked to be believed or too good to be believed; but it cannot be too absurd to be believed in this planet of frogs and elephants, of crocodiles and cuttle-fish.” - G.K. ChestertonThis surely does not speak well of our country’s current situation: (H/T Glenn Reynolds who asks the logical question “how long before Governor Cuomo commits suicide?”) “We’ve come to a situation where any politically connected suicide is presumed to be a murder. The government has lost the benefit of the doubt.”Well, that happens when your country is...

by Samantha FosterFlorida Governor Ron DeSantis came out swinging against Joe Biden on Wednesday.Joe Biden on Tuesday attacked Republican Governors Ron DeSantis (FL) and Greg Abbott (TX) for pushing back on vaccine passports and mask mandates.“If some governors aren’t willing to do the right thing to beat this pandemic, then they should allow businesses and universities who want to do the right thing to be able to do it,” Biden said of Florida and Texas.“If you aren’t going to help, at least get out of the way,” he added.Not a word about the tens or perhaps hundreds of thousands of...

or almost three decades, 81-year-old David Lidstone has lived in the woods of New Hampshire along the Merrimack River in a small cabin adorned with solar panels. He has grown his own food, cut his own firewood, and tended to his cat and chickens. But his off-the-grid existence appears to be at risk. ...“You came with your guns, you arrested me, brought me in here, you’ve got all my possessions. You keep ’em,” he told a judge at a hearing Wednesday. “I’ll sit here with your uniform on until I rot, sir.” “It’s lying, cheating corrupt judges like you that...

At today's Senate Homeland Committee hearing, Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) called redactions in Dr. Fauci's communications "not valid."

Fifty-four percent of Americans say they think that President Biden won’t run for reelection in 2024. That’s one of the findings of a new national poll from Quinnipiac University released on Wednesday. A third of those questioned in the survey said that they believed Biden will seek reelection in 2024, with 13% not offering an opinion. There was a partisan divide, with three-quarters of Republicans and a majority of independents saying that the president wouldn’t run again in 2024. Democrats were divided on the question, with 41% saying Biden would seek reelection and 45% disagreeing.

Would-be school teachers at the Oklahoma Aspiring Educators Association’s recent Racial and Social Justice Symposium were told that both public schools and many of the teachers within them are tools of white supremacy. But featured speakers at the online event offered a solution: Purge the teaching profession of many of its current members, who are majority white. “Really, I want to be an agent of discomfort for white folks,” said Terry Jess, a National Education Association Social Justice Activist finalist in 2017. “I want to get folks to either commit to the work or get out of the profession. And...

A recent poll came out from Emerson on the recall of Governor Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, showing a statistically tied race among registered voters, 48 no, 46 yes. While this is a terrible sign for Newsom and the Democrats, this does not shock me, as I have seen a gradual but real shift in the community and the numbers make sense. The most shocking internal in this poll was that Hispanics were the only racial group to overwhelmingly support the recall, and they do by a landslide, 54-41. Black and Asian majorities, in contrast, are supportive of keeping Newsom in...

The coronavirus cabinet approved new restrictions on Tuesday night, as senior government members admitted a lockdown in September is not a remote possibility anymore. Starting August 8, the full green pass system will be in place again (from August 20 also for children under 12), masks will be mandatory in all outdoor gatherings and a vaccinated/recovered parent caring for a child in quarantine under the age of 12 will be demanded to isolate as well. In addition, government offices will work with only 50% of their workforce in person, and the private sector will be encouraged to do the same....

Arizona Republican state legislators pushed back against Maricopa County officials on Tuesday, one day after the county’s Board of Supervisors defiantly refused to cooperate with subpoenas for additional information about the November 3, 2020, election conducted in the state’s most populous county. ....... Snip....... On Tuesday, State Senate Majority Whip Sonny Borrelli (R-Lake Havasu City) released a statement announcing he asked Arizona Attorney General Brnovich to investigate the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors for violating the law: Today I submitted a request for the Arizona Attorney General to investigate the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors for their failure to comply...

God Is Sick of Them: Francis' Model Church Reduced to a Pile of RubbleThere are 22,193,347 "Catholics" in Germany, which corresponds to 26.7% of the population.The data refers to the year 2020 and appeared in statistics published by the German Bishops' Conference.The "Catholics" are served by 12,565 priests (2019: 12,983).

In my most recent prior post I referenced two things: The Wrong of Slavery, the Right of Emancipation, and the future of the African race in the United States - this book(and audiobook) is strongly related to the final report of the Freedmen's Inquiry Commission and bears many likenesses to the text.(source) Additionally: George Bancroft's History of the United States, Vol. VI. All I want to do here is give you the full text of the order from the King's own hand so you can read it for yourself. On December 10th, 1770, here was the order given by King...

The $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure accord would institute a multiyear "national motor vehicle per-mile user fee pilot" program that, without future intervention from the White House, could potentially violate one of President Joe Biden's previously stated red lines. Top White House officials emphatically stated for months that paying for the infrastructure investments by indexing gas taxes to inflation or instituting new electric vehicle mileage fees were hard red lines for the president on the grounds that they would raise taxes on people earning less than $400,000 per year. Yet, the new per-mile user fee pilot, outlined in section 13002 of...

Secret Commission: Is Francis Preparing His Next Attack On the Church?Francis wants to „study“ Communion for Protestants, MarcoTossatti.com (August 4) writes.However, Protestants don’t fulfil the two prerequisits for receiving Communion, i.e. going to confession and believing in transsubstantiation.Rumours say that Francis instructed the Secretary of the Liturgy Congregation, Archbishop Vittorio Francesco Viola, a former lecturer at the anti-Catholic Liturgical Institute of Sant'Anselmo, Rome, to organise a „confidential commission“ in September, and to report directly within only two months to Francis.In defiance of all pretended 'synodality', this method which Francis likes is bypassing the Cardinals, bishops, and all bodies in charge...

A Danville bowling alley has come out in opposition to the indoor mask mandate rolled out by seven Bay Area counties earlier this week. Danville Bowl is going so far as to refuse enforcing the mandate, their reasoning being that "everyone has the right to freedom and not constant retracting restrictions from the government." "If you would like to wear your mask inside while you bowl…feel free," reads their post published Tuesday. "If you don’t want too, that’s okay. The choice is up to YOU, as it always should have been. Not to mention if you’re vaccinated you should have...

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. – When President Richard Nixon was neck deep in the Watergate scandal and faced impeachment in the House of Representatives and a trial in the U.S. Senate, Tricky Dick said he would never resign. After all, Nixon was sure that he could beat conviction in the Senate, where he merely had to hold on to a third of the members in order to remain in office. As gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson wrote at the time, any president who couldn’t use the vast powers of their office to keep 33 senators in line by hook or by...

They tell you Joe Biden got 81 million votes in November. More than anyone in history, including birthday boy Barack Obama. Yes, the same guy who days ago was declaring “My butt’s been wiped” and eating food stuck on his chin. 81 million. If you’re Hillary Clinton, you’re saying, “There’s no way he got 15 million more votes than me!”Former military intelligence officer and election data analyst Seth Keshel would tell Hillary she’s right. Keshel’s been studying election trends, population trends, registration rolls, party affiliation and several other data points. His conclusion?Biden was given 8.1 million excess votes.Trump won Arizona,...
