Easter Sunday of the Resurrection of the Lord John 20:1-9 Friends, our Easter Gospel contains St. John’s magnificent account of the Resurrection. It was, says John, early in the morning on the first day of the week. It was still dark—just the way it was at the beginning of time before God said, "Let there be light." But a light was about to shine, and a new creation was about to appear. The stone had been rolled away. That stone, blocking entrance to the tomb of Jesus, And this is why we weep at death—not just in grief but in...

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) on Sunday suggested that Russia would not have invaded Ukraine if the U.S. provided weapons to Kyiv sooner. “This is going to get stronger and rougher and what really needs to happen is, Ukraine is not asking for American men and women to fight, all they’re asking for is the weapons to defend themselves,” McCarthy told Fox News chief Washington correspondent Mike Emanuel on “Fox News Sunday.”

Many solid tumors can be carefully excised, but others, such as diffuse midline gliomas, or DMGs, are much trickier. Children who have been diagnosed with a DMG tumor are projected to live for less than a year. Physician-scientists discovered that DMG tumors are uniquely dependent on methionine—an amino acid that humans must receive from food. Fortunately, DMG cells may have a special vulnerability that could be exploited for therapeutic benefit. Careful analysis of those cells' genetic code revealed that they have a unique feature—a mutation in proteins that provide structural support to the DNA—that makes them particularly vulnerable to methionine...

In 1897, Adolph S. Ochs, the owner of the New York Times, created the famous slogan, "All the News That's Fit to Print," which still appears on the masthead of the newspaper today. Adolph wrote the slogan as a declaration of the newspaper's intention to give the news, "impartially, without fear or favor, regardless of party, sect or interests involved." Hunter Biden's laptop story apparently wasn't fit to print until 16 months after Joe Biden was elected president. Strange coincidence. In another strange coincidence, on Easter weekend, the NY Times published an op-ed piece (that was fit to print) written...

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that President Joe Biden should come to Ukraine. Anchor Jake Tapper said, “President Biden called what Putin is doing here genocide. President Macron of France said that he didn’t think it was constructive to raise the rhetoric like that, that it wasn’t healthy. What was your response to both Biden and Macron?

A senior US official has accused Russia of driving food shortages in Yemen and around the world, suggesting Moscow is to blame for rapidly rising prices. The Kremlin rejected the charge, instead citing American sanctions as a leading cause of starvation. In an address at the United Nations headquarters in New York on Thursday, US Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield attempted to tie Russia’s attack on Ukraine to Yemen’s dire hunger crisis. “The World Food Program’s March report identified Yemen as one of the countries most affected by wheat price increases and lack of imports from Ukraine. This is...

Inflation Joe and Slow-Walking Jay. The bullies of the middle class and low-wage workers. As inflation crushes the middle class and low wage workers, we see that the REAL Fed Funds Target Rate (based on headline inflation) is the lowest in history. Notice that the REAL Fed Funds Target Rate tends to hit its lowest negative reading DURING recessions, although The Fed has had a poor track record since the Dot.com bubble burst and the 2001 recession meaning that the REAL Fed Funds Target rate has been in negative territory (that is, the rate of inflation has exceeded The Fed...

Pavlo Kyrylenko, Ukraine’s governor over Mariupol, has said Friday that the city of Mariupol has been “wiped off the face of the earth” after weeks of relentless shelling and missile strikes from Russian forces. “The enemy may seize the land Mariupol used to stand on, but the city of Mariupol has been wiped off the face of the earth by the Russian Federation, by those who will never be able to restore it,” he said. “To restore Mariupol, that is something only Ukraine can do.”Image: Associated PressAs to the fate of the city, he described that at this point it...

The Russian TASS news agency quoted Defence Ministry Spokesman Major-General Igor Konashenkov: “‘Russian anti-aircraft defence forces have shot down a Ukrainian military transport plane near Odessa which was delivering a large shipment of arms supplied to Ukraine by Western countries.” Yaroslav Trofimov of the Wall Street Journal commented on Twitter immediately afterwards: “Russia claims it downed a Ukrainian transport plane carrying weapons ‘in the Odessa region.’ There are no Ukrainian transport planes flying there, but there were some flying from Turkey to Poland.”

SkyTeam 11 video showed at 9:10 a.m. seven tug boats towing the Ever Forward just under the Chesapeake Bay Bridge.

For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 1 Corinthians 1:18 The Communist Party has been using a cleaver trick for decades and Conservatives continue to fall for it. The Dems always claim to be the Party of science even though there is no scientific proof for any of their proclamations. They have simply changed the definition of science to fit their Communist agenda so it becomes a club to force Socialism down America’s throat. Follow the science is their main mantra even though...

Earlier this month NASA posted a schedule for Axiom Mission 1 (Ax-1), the first all-private space flight crew. The four were originally set to spend around 10 days at the ISS, according to that previous release, but yesterday plans changed. NASA said instead the crew will undock from the ISS Tuesday morning and splashdown Wednesday morning off the coast of Florida. The crew will now be spending closer to 12 days in orbit, but they don’t seem to mind the layover. It’s nice to daydream, but for now, space remains out of reach for everyone on Earth minus fewer than...

An allegedly North Korean Ethereum wallet tied to March’s $600 million crypto hack continued to launder its stolen ETH Friday in defiance of U.S. sanctions. The blacklisted address that U.S. authorities say is controlled by North Korea’s elite “Lazarus” hacker group sent 2,915 ETH (around $8.8 million) to the cleaners this morning New York time, a day after federal officials listed it on its sanctions database. Making a brief pit stop at a fresh, unsanctioned wallet, its crypto quickly flew through the popular coin mixer Tornado Cash, where the trail went cold. It was a continuation of what one tracing...
