Powerful northerly to northeasterly offshore winds whipped the San Francisco Bay Area overnight. The strongest gusts were recorded in Sonoma County where wind speeds topped 90 mph. The National Weather Service reported a 96 mph gust at an anemometer in the Healdsburg Hills and a 93 mph gust on Pine Flat Road. Both stations are to the east of Geyser Peak where the Geyser Fire broke out. The blaze ignited early Saturday and grew to 5 acres before it was put out, Cal Fire said. No structures or power lines were damaged in the fire. [...] In the East Bay,...

As The Tonight Show’s pioneering host, Johnny Carson left behind a huge fortune and a fabulous clifftop mansion when he died in 2005. And when the home went up for sale again in 2017, it came with an asking price of $81.5 million. What kind of custom features does the architectural dream that once belonged to Carson have? Plus, when did he buy it, how much did he pay for it, and was anyone willing and able to put down more than $80 million to live in it more than ten years after his death?

My dear friend, Satan is no dope or buffoon. He is a diabolical genius who fully comprehends the inner workings of Adam’s fallen race and knows how to perfectly play humanity like a fiddle to fulfill all of his demonic anti-God agenda (Isa. 14:12-15, Matt. 4:9, Eph. 2:2-3, Rev. 13:4). He is a human hunter and a destroyer and knows exactly what bait to use to bring down a culture and society which has had the Bible and Almighty God in its beginnings and founding (John 8:44). As one reads through the biblical account of Adam’s fallen race one satanic...

In October 2021, Edith’s, a Brooklyn eatery specializing in foods of the Jewish diaspora, announced on Instagram that they were planning to hand out cans of Dr. Brown’s Cel-Ray—the chartreuse celery-flavored soda that’s a staple in Jewish delis—to trick-or-treaters on Halloween. Elyssa Heller, founder and CEO of the restaurant, explained that she wanted to introduce more folks in the neighborhood to the drink. But there was a problem: As they prepared to place a large order of the soda from their distributor, Heller’s team discovered there was no Cel-Ray to be found. Missing celery soda might not seem like a...

New polls conducted by the Trafalgar Group show Joe Biden’s approval numbers still in the cellar, and congressional Democrats lagging behind Republicans by over 13 points on the generic ballot. Of the 1,083 likely general election voters surveyed between 01/12/22 and 01/15/22, just 38.7 percent approved of Biden’s performance and 59.2 percent disapproved. Nearly 50 percent of voters said they strongly disapprove of the job Biden is doing. Among Republicans, a mere 10.1 percent approve, and 88.3 percent disapprove. Biden also polled poorly with unaffiliated voters as well, garnering only 30.8 approval versus 67.7 percent disapproval. Biden still enjoys majority...

If Russia launches a further invasion of Ukraine, as U.S. officials increasingly fear, its advance deeper into the country is likely to be complemented by missile salvos that would turn the skies above Kyiv, Ukraine, into an effective no-go zone: using short-range missiles to knock out Ukraine’s runways, airports, and fighters on the ground. In fact, Russia already appears to be sending its Iskander missiles—precision-guided munitions the Russian military has fired in Syria—to the front lines, covered in tarps, according to videos revealed on TikTok this week. Weapons experts were able to discern the contours of the Iskander missiles from...

Though the majority of people aspire to having a single family home in a safe and pleasant suburban neighborhood, activists are taking legal action to force density by inserting multi-unit housing in San Francisco, California. The legal arm of a group favoring housing density filed suit claiming city officials violated laws by halting the construction of a 469-unit housing project in a tower near Sixth and Market streets.

Dear Friends, the Demonic American Left have totally and absolutely lost their minds in light of the Texas abortion ban ruling! From Hollywood to D C; from college campuses to godless Left wing groups; their demonic rage and reprobate minds are on full display of who they are and the demonic manifestation of their demonic lords are now totally manifested (John 8:44; Rom. 1:18-32)! They are totally in love with death as their father is and will never stop until godlessness reigns (John 8:44)! They are totally in love with death as their father is and will never stop until...

A mechanic totaled a $3.4 million Ferrari when he smashed into a tree stump on a test drive. The bright red Enzo sports car, one of only 400 made, had two wheels ripped off and may be irreparable. Local reports suggest a dealership mechanic was behind the wheel. He escaped unhurt but was taken to the hospital for a check-up. A witness to Tuesday’s smash in Baarn, Netherlands, said: “I think he wanted to turn back to the dealership.” They added: “The local Ferrari dealer is about one and a quarter miles away from the scene. It’s a customer-owned car....

oday, we live in a highly demonic and mentky ravished society in which there is at least one individual that we might personally know who has had at least one abortion. May it be our sincere desire as ambassadors of Almighty God (2 Cor. 5:17-21) to share with that individual the loving forgiveness and kindness that is found ONLY in Jesus Christ (John 3:16-17; Rev.1:5). Turn... to the Savior of the world who LOVED you and gave Himself for you that you might be with Him FOREVERMORE! Oh my dear friend, if you have been one who has been alone...

President Biden Friday put on full display admiration for "partner" Vice President Kamala Harris claiming he could not imagine having anyone else serve by his side as questions about her performance grow. Biden's praise for Kamala came as the two of them delivered remarks at a virtual Democratic National Committee grassroots event on Friday.

Just before Christmas, without much fanfare, Ontario became the first province to approve fluvoxamine – a decades-old drug few had heard of – for the early treatment of COVID-19. The December 20 announcement, coming at a time when Canadians were preoccupied with Omicron, and the fear hospitals would soon be overwhelmed, received hardly any news coverage. Fluvoxamine is a “repurposed drug,” and comes from what might seem like a most unlikely source – psychiatry. It is an antidepressant used most commonly to treat obsessive-compulsive disorder. The drug has had two randomized control trials, or RCTs (the highest level of evidence)...

Next week, the State Department is also expected to encourage Americans to begin leaving Ukraine by commercial flights, "while those are still available," one official said.Moscow has massed tens of thousands of troops at the border with Ukraine, leading to fears of an invasion.

VIDEOWhen CNN hired Michael Fanone as their Law Enforcement Analyst they probably didn't really know what they were going to get. Perhaps because Fanone was a Capitol Hill police officer who appeared as a friendly witness before the January 6 Committee to support the now crumbling narrative about an "insurrection" they thought Fanone would automatically support the liberal stance on law enforcement in general. When he went off the narrative and blamed the surge of crime on the media and liberal politicians it came as quite a shock to the two liberal hosts, John Berman and Kasie Hunt, who were...

Rumble Video link Jan Markell welcomes back health expert Twila Brase and attorney Marjorie Holsten in part 2. We are not being told the truth as it concerns Covid-19. The truth-tellers are called conspiratorial. Evangelical Christians are blamed for vaccine hesitancy even though great injury is being reported from these vaccines. Hear our attorney relate another story of hospital recklessness. What can we do to protect ourselves and those we love? Part 1

Per the University of Chicago’s newly announced booster mandate, all students and employees must obtain a booster shot by January 24. Those who do not comply will be barred from campus and restricted from attending in-person classes, among other activities. This booster mandate is demonstrably unsafe, ineffective, unnecessary, inconsistent, and unethical. We’ve struggled beneath UChicago’s draconian COVID decrees for years, but the university’s booster mandate reaches a new height of absurdity.

In cities across Ukraine, there are billboards that show a smiling young man beckoning in full battle gear. "Learn how to defend your home today," the message says. The advertisement from Ukraine's Territorial Defense Forces, an offshoot of the army, seems to be working. As Ukrainians prepare for a possible Russian invasion, thousands of citizens are volunteering to train in case they have to help protect their cities.

On Friday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Hannity,” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said that if President Joe Biden wants to work with Republicans, he can work with Republicans to sanction Russia for its buildup against Ukraine. Graham said, “I mean, the news conference was a disaster on multiple levels. But it’s not the news conference. He’s been on the world stage, Joe Biden, for 40 years.”
