I’ve been waiting for the explanation for the 60X increase in rate of players dropping on the sports field.Here it is from Twitter: “In many of the cases, the athlete in question collapsed due to causes such as dehydration and overheating.”Of course! That explains it! Good old winter dehydration and overheating problems. Happens every time it gets cold! If only they could invent something that would keep athletes hydrated!As you can see, the fact checkers didn’t look at a single autopsy report, but they assure us there is absolutely NOTHING to worry about. These athletes couldn’t possibly have been affected...

An article for those people who are not already convinced of this (you know, like every member of Congress and the mainstream media). My regular followers will find nothing new or surprising here.I wanted to start a placeholder article of examples of corruption and/or incompetence at our favorite 3-letter agencies. The lists will likely grow much longer over time.Sadly, AFAIK, nobody in Congress is interested in looking at this. They all would rather look the other way and pretend there is no problem here. They refuse to discuss any of these points.Feel free to suggest your favorite examples in the...

Dec. 22, 2021 - 6:18 - President Biden discussed supply chain shortages and how the White House has been tackling the issue.

If you are among those who have not succumbed to the psychological warfare that has been inflicted upon the world through the “war against the COVID-19 virus” and remain unvaccinated with a healthy heart and sound mind, get ready for the next phase of this “war” against the “virus,” as Operation Omicron is about to be unleashed, and there are going to be massive casualties, all blamed on you and me, the unvaccinated. The script has been written, and the message has been delivered this week by the usual puppet spokespeople to the public. U.S. “President” Joe Biden: Omicron is...

You would hear about this all over the establishment media if the roles were reversed, which they would not be and should not be. But you will likely hear about this only here. “ISWAP Terrorists Kill 12 Christians in Borno State, Nigeria,” Morning Star News, December 21, 2021: ABUJA, Nigeria (Morning Star News) – Terrorists with the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP) on Sunday (Dec. 19) killed 12 Christians in an attack in Borno state, northeastern Nigeria, sources said. The Islamic extremist militants attacked the predominantly Christian village of Kilangal, Askira-Uba County, in the afternoon, shortly after residents were...

I am not sure who told Chevrolet that what we really needed this Christmas was to ugly cry over an ad they produced for the holidays, but whoever it was needs to go sit in the corner and think about what they’ve done. You may have seen the shortened version of this ad, titled “Holiday Ride,” on TV. But you don’t get the full emotional impact without seeing the extended four-minute version, which is a tear-jerker and hit me harder than listening to my child ask me why Mufasa wasn’t waking up.

Operation ‘Dark Winter’ was a military simulation of a bio-terrorist attack on the United States, and one of the main players in this end times intrigue was Johns Hopkins. Yes, the very same Johns Hopkins that was also a major player in Bill Gates’ ‘Event 201‘. Do you think it’s a coincidence that Joe Biden waited until today to address the nation on Omicron, have you ever asked yourself what today is? Why, it’s the first day of winter, of course, the dark winter we’ve been warning you about. A very dark winter. “Behold ye among the heathen, and regard,...

Businesses requiring patrons, including children as young as five, to show proof of vaccination is now “necessary,” Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot (D) declared this week. “Despite our diligent and equitable vaccine distribution efforts throughout this year, unfortunately, our city continues to see a surge of COVID-19 Delta and now omicron cases,” the Democrat mayor said on Tuesday, announcing the city’s new vaccine requirement, which goes into effect January 3.

Coal production is set to hit an all-time high according to the International Energy Agency (IEA) despite the curbing of production across several countries and aims for decarbonization following COP26. Coal demand has continued to increase through 2021 mainly due to the needs of large Asian countries that still rely on the fossil fuel, as well as gas shortages forcing European states to shift back to coal. Coal has experienced a dramatic rebound this year, with production levels set to hit an all-time high in 2021 and demand levels to peak in 2022. Even after worldwide power generation from coal...

On Oct. 30, 2020, just days before the presidential election, Joe Biden tweeted, "I'm not going to shut down the country. I'm not going to shut down the economy. I'm going to shut down the virus." This was a lie. It was a lie because nobody can shut down the virus. Government does not have the power to end disease, as a general matter. When it comes to a wildly transmissible coronavirus specifically, no government can end the virus. Even the sainted Dr. Anthony Fauci has admitted as much: "we're never going to eradicate this ... elimination may be too...

WND recently covered a story from the U.K. in which a public health agency has declared – with total conviction – that Christian beliefs regarding marriage are "incompatible with human dignity." (snip) The LGBT agenda has always been the point of the spear of Cultural Marxism, and thus it is no surprise that the triumph of the putative Biden presidency is most gloatingly in-your-face in the heartbreaking, sexually dysfunctional parade of America's children dancing willingly into the flames of Sodom as the demonic media and politicians applaud. But, suddenly there is a small glimmer of hope thanks to a bold...

What do you want to see most in 2022? or maybe What do you most want to see in 2022? No wrong answers, but whoever first nails my "best" answer gets one internet.

Former US President Donald Trump suggested that Senator Joe Manchin is "saving" President Biden "from himself" by blocking the Build Back Better bill, according to Fox News. "I think he’s saving Biden, because if they ever got that passed, this country would be a total disaster. Already, inflation is so bad, it’s at a level that nobody’s really seen — nobody remembers for so long — Jimmy Carter was there, but I think this will end up being far worse than Jimmy Carter", Trump said, apparently referring to the so-called "stagflation" period that occurred during Carter's presidency in the 1970s,...

The Mankato School Board voted unanimously earlier this month for a policy that may grant additional pay exclusively to non-white teachers. The board is chaired by Jodi Sapp, who previously came under fire for requiring concerned parents to dox themselves in order to comment on school matters. Under her leadership, the board voted to amend district policy so that non-white teachers only may receive “additional stipends” to become mentors to other non-white colleagues. The new policy will also have the district “placing American Indian educators at sites with other American Indian educators and educators of color at sites with other...

We live on the edge of eternity. For those who know Jesus as their Savior, it will start when He catches us up to meet Him in the air (1 Thessalonians 4:3-17). Those left behind will face the horrors of the seven-year Tribulation. As many of you know, I often write about the signs of the time. However, I feel compelled to do so again as a reminder both to myself as well as to others of the nearness of Jesus’ appearing. Apart from the first sign listed below, they appear in no particular order. Together, however, they shout to...

Preaching for Pastor Robert Jeffress at First Baptist Church in Dallas this past Sunday, former President Donald Trump said, “Our country needs a savior right now. And our country has a savior. And it’s not me. It’s somebody much higher up than me. Much higher.” Yes, much, much higher, indeed. Can we say “Amen” to that? The truth be told, the Savior is on a completely different level than Donald Trump (or any other world leader, or human being, for that matter). He is not just much, much higher up. And greater. And wiser. And holier. And more powerful. He...

Why would highly educated leaders place the rights of criminals, rioters, looters, illegal aliens, etc., above the rights of citizens? What would cause so-called intelligent leaders to believe they can stop tornadoes and hurricanes from happening by building windmills, forcing their citizens to drive smaller vehicles, stopping farmers and ranchers from raising cows, etc.? What would cause the head of the most populated state in the U.S. to tell officials not to prosecute thieves that steal less than $1,000 worth of someone’s property? What is causing some leaders to seem childish? Following the destruction of Israel, God made some remarkable...

\ 'Tis the season when people bring a tree indoors and apparently discover they are harboring praying mantis eggs. According to a Facebook post by Officials in Erie County, Ohio, that is once again being spread around the Internet, if you see a strange walnut-like growth on the tree, you should not bring it indoors. "PSA: If you happen to see a walnut-sized/shaped egg mass, on your Christmas tree, don’t fret, clip the branch and put it in your garden. These are 100-200 praying mantis eggs!" they wrote in the post. "Don’t bring them inside they will hatch and...

In late September, Foundation debuted on Apple TV+, bringing Isaac Asimov’s sci-fi franchise to the screen for the first time. “The series of books was long held to be unfilmable,” the BBC said. Less than a month later, Dune arrived on HBO Max and in domestic multiplexes, having hit international theaters weeks before. The movie marked the first attempt in more than 20 years to translate Frank Herbert’s books to the screen, after multiple prior tries that resulted in an unforgettable flop of a film and two forgettable TV miniseries. “Dune has earned a reputation for being ‘unfilmable,’” Time observed.The...
