    Vadim Petrov, a native of the Kaliningrad region of Russia, the coordinator of the Baltic Republican Party, during Sunday's protest at the Russian Embassy in Warsaw ripped up the Russian Constitution in protest against Vladimir Putin's policies. He also handed over an ultimatum to the Russian Embassy in Warsaw, emphasizing that if the Kremlin refuses to de-escalate the situation around Ukraine's borders, his party will initiate a referendum on the Kaliningrad region's secession from Russia, Ukrinform reports. "Putin introduced amendments to the [Russian] Constitution in order to rule forever. But after 2024, he will be an illegitimate president," Petrov said,...
  • The Centers For Disease Control’s Lies Have Destroyed Its Legitimacy

    On August 6, 2021, the Centers for Disease Control released a report that the agency claimed showed “Vaccination Offers Higher Protection than Previous COVID-19 Infection.” This assertion came amidst a public battle with Sen. Rand Paul, as the CDC released this data from Kentucky, Paul’s home state. Yet after indisputable scientific evidence continued to pile up in favor of natural immunity, the CDC finally capitulated on January 19, 2022, recognizing the superiority of natural immunity over vaccination alone: “Between May and November 2021, people who were unvaccinated and did not have a prior COVID-19 infection remained at the highest risk...

    Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson on Saturday proposed selling trucks seized during the police’s violent dismantling of the Freedom Convoy, stating that it was the Canadian capital’s legal right due to the Trudeau’s government invocation of the Emergencies Act. “We actually have the ability to confiscate those vehicles and sell them,” Watson said. “And I want to see them sold. I don’t want the return to these people who’ve been causing such frustration and angst in our community.” Over the weekend, law enforcement in Ottawa arrested 191 individuals during its violent crackdown on the city’s Freedom Convoy protest. Chris Harkins, who...
  • February 22 - Gentleness as Defined by Jesus - Devotional

    GracetoYou.org ^ | 2008 | John MacArthur, Grace Community Church
    “‘Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth’” (Matthew 5:5). In this verse, “gentle” (a word often rendered “meek” in other translations) means mild or soft. Looking ahead to His triumphal entry, the prophet hailed Christ this way: “Behold your King is coming to you, gentle, and mounted on a donkey” (Matt. 21:5; cf. Zech. 9:9). From Old Testament times, gentleness has been God’s way for mankind. The book of Job says God “sets on high those who are lowly, and those who mourn are lifted to safety” (5:11; cf. Ps. 25:9). “Moses was very humble, more than...

    The Return ^ | February 22, 2022
    ‍Surrender. What does this word tell you? In literal terms, surrender means “to give up something to another person.” It also means to relinquish something granted to you. This could include your possessions, power, goals or even your life. Christians today hear much about the surrendered life, but what does it mean exactly? Jesus lived a perfectly surrendered life: “For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me” (John 6:38, NKJV) and “I do not seek my own glory; there is one who seeks and judges” (John 8:50)....

    This week, Special Prosecutor John Durham indicated that he is farther along on his investigation of the 2016 election crimes. He says the evidence proves that Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign paid hackers to spy on Trump's campaign. Clinton mocked "this so-called scandal. The enemies who have schemed to deny me my turn to be president want voters to think that I did something illegal. Well, the fact is, all of the actions Durham characterizes as crimes were fully authorized by outgoing President Obama. He realized what a disaster it would be for the country to have an uncouth outsider invade...

    Israel is scrapping all COVID-19 vaccine requirements for international travelers starting next month, the prime minister's office announced Sunday. From March 1 onward, visitors to the Jewish state can enter the country regardless of their vaccination status as long as they take two PCR tests with negative results, according to a statement from Prime Minister Naftali Benett's office. Travelers should take one PCR test before departing to Israel and the other after landing in the country, the statement said. Bennett and Health Minister Nitzan Horowitz decided to ease the rules of entry after a Sunday discussion on pulling back restrictions...

    Fears over over Vladimir Putin’s threatened invasion of Ukraine continue to grow despite the fact that the effort would burst both Russia’s military and economy, not to mention ruining its foreign relations. Swallowing a poison pawn makes so little sense that UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson says Russia’s Putin may be “irrational,” unable to act in his own best interests. Yet it is not only the Kremlin’s behavior that has a bizarre feel to it. Despite decrying the seriousness of the situation, Western governments aren’t obviously readying for a European conflict. Instead they are focusing on masks, mandates and invoking...

    A 19-year-old man has been held on $1 million bail after an alleged anti-gay attack that sent the victim to the hospital. Decatur police allege Ethan Dickerson restrained and hit the victim repeatedly with a pipe wrench Thursday at a Decatur home. Authorities said Dickerson allegedly threatened to kill the victim in a homophobic rant, according to The (Decatur) Herald & Review. "'You know why I have to do this. ... You're gay. ... You're evil ... I'm going to kill you,'" a police affidavit quoted Dickerson telling the victim, the Herald & Review reported. Dickerson faced preliminary charges of...

    MSNBC anchor Joy Reid lost it on the Republican Party after the GOP’s Presidents Day tweet omitted President Obama but included President Nixon.“Happy Presidents’ Day to Such Great U.S. Presidents,” the tweet said, featuring eight Republican presidents. In the middle of the photo is a picture of President Biden with a mask on and the words, “NOT YOU,” in red. Reid used it to make a broader point about Critical Race Theory. “Disappearing the first Black president while whitewashing Richard Nixon and disrespecting the man who served as the first Black president’s VP, who is now president.

    The Colorado-based alpinist was 400 feet up The Ribbon when an avalanche released. He caught the ensuing moments on video. This was probably one of the most terrifying experiences I’ve had while solo climbing. Took absolutely every ounce of strength I could muster to keep holding onto my tools. I knew if I stayed terrified I probably would die, so I concentrated on controlling my breathing, hugging in tight to the wall to prevent snow buildup on my body, and tucked my head down to breathe a little air bubble. There was a wave in there, about 10 seconds after...

    Jill Griffin had a panic on her hands. Teachers and staff members of her school district in Bethalto, Illinois, a small town outside of St. Louis, were suddenly worried that they would not be paid. They had seen videos posted online in which a parent who objected to the district’s Covid mask mandate said that she had filed a claim against the district’s insurance, causing the schools to lose all federal funding. Griffin, the Bethalto schools superintendent, has spent weeks dealing with the fallout. The parents’ strategy is simple: Try to use obscure and often inapplicable legal claims to force...

    Inaccurate results. Phony dates. Bogus promises. Those are the accusations against a COVID-19 testing company and partnering laboratory under investigation or sued by several states’ attorneys general. Center for Covid Control and Doctors Clinical Laboratory, headquartered in Rolling Meadows, Illinois, had bags of bio-waste and boxes of PCR tests from across the country sitting unrefrigerated and piling up amid the holidays, according to former employees.

    When historians gathered at the White House shortly after President Biden's inauguration, they discussed what makes a presidency consequential. Biden reportedly told one historian in attendance, "I'm no FDR, but..." On this, Biden is right: He is no Franklin Delano Roosevelt, nor is he any of the other presidents to whom he has delusional hopes of being compared to, such as Lyndon Johnson or Abraham Lincoln. After just one year of complete Democrat rule, there is no denying that the average American is far worse off under the Biden administration. Biden's desire for a consequential presidency has meant disastrous consequences...
