    LUBBOCK, Texas — Keeping up with the latest news can be very bad for your health, according to a new study. Researchers at Texas Tech University found that Americans who obsessively follow the news are more likely to suffer from both physical and mental health problems, including anxiety and stress. Those who constantly check the latest headlines end up with “significantly greater physical ill-being” than those who tune in less often, according to the findings. The team adds that constantly keeping on top of the latest developments can lead to a vicious cycle where people always check for more updates,...

    Donald Trump’s biggest failure was not doing a thorough housecleaning at the FBI. No doubt Trump agrees with me, given all that has been going on lately. Yesterday’s news revealed a double-whammy that added more clarity to just how heavy the Bureau’s thumb was on the 2020 presidential election scale, and all of it has to do with Joe Biden’s sleazebag progeny, Hunter. ... FBI was working overtime to make sure voters didn’t have information about Hunter Biden’s cocaine and hookers criminal antics. ... According to Senator Ron Johnson (R-Wisc.), a whistleblower claims that FBI officials told investigators not to...

    BUFFALO, N.Y. -- Bills rookie punter Matt Araiza and two others have been accused of gang raping a 17-year-old girl last year in a lawsuit filed in San Diego County Superior Court on Thursday. The lawsuit, obtained by ESPN, involves allegations against Araiza and two of his former San Diego State teammates. The other men named in the complaint are Zavier Leonard, a redshirt freshman with the Aztecs, and Nowlin Ewaliko, who was a freshman last season but is no longer on the listed roster. All three are accused of rape, gender violence and false imprisonment.

    “Two blind men followed Him, crying out, ‘Have mercy on us, Son of David!’” (Matthew 9:27). That the blind men called Jesus the “Son of David” means they recognized Him as the Christ. Son of David was one of the most common Jewish titles for Messiah. It was also a royal title indicating that Messiah would come from the family of King David and have a right to rule over the promised divine kingdom. God first promised that the Deliverer for His people would be a man, the seed of a woman (cf. Gen. 3:15). Later in the Old Testament,...

    The Return ^ | August 25, 2022
    Do you know it is possible to walk before the Lord with a perfect heart? If you are hungering for Jesus, you may already be desiring and earnestly trying to obey this command of the Lord. I want to encourage you that it is possible, or God would not have given us such a call. Having a perfect heart has been part of the life of faith from the time God told Abraham, “I am Almighty God; walk before me and be blameless” (Genesis 17:1, NKJV). To come to grips with the idea of perfection, we first must understand that...

    Tuesday’s election results have ushered in a new day for the supposedly nonpartisan Miami-Dade School Board. Ideology and leadership are about to be flipped on their head That is no accident. It is the result of a calculated move by Gov. Ron DeSantis and Lt. Gov. Jeanette Nuñez. Well-played, but, perhaps, to this community’s detriment.

    The line snaked out from the Central Wyoming Fairgrounds Industrial Building and down the road outside. Voters stood in the warming August sun, waiting for an opportunity to cast their ballots Tuesday in Wyoming’s most discussed primary election in memory. In a state dominated by Republicans, primaries take on additional significance. Still, it was unusual — in fact, historic — to have so many people lined up to vote. Many of those voters were clear about what motivated them to show up. They were there to cast out Rep. Liz Cheney. They succeeded. Cheney lost by nearly 40 points to...

    USS Jimmy Carter, A History – There are currently nine aircraft carriers named for former presidents of the United States, while a tenth is now under construction. However, President Jimmy Carter isn’t included in the list of former commanders-in-chief to be so honored – rather Carter has the distinction of being recognized for his service as a United States Navy submariner with a Seawolf-class nuclear-powered, fast attack submarine (SSN) named for him. Carter was the only submarine-qualified sailor to go on to become the nation’s chief executive. He was the nuclear engineer officer on the Pre-Commissioning Unit Seawolf (SSN 575)...

    Biden’s handout to the affluent Share Topics POLITICS USA Not much more than a third of Americans complete a college degree, and under 20 per cent are in jobs that require a college degree. In recent years, the differences between this minority and the rest of America have become increasingly stark. Not only is this top 20 per cent more affluent – the sharpest cultural divides in the country are also between the college-educated and others. Politically, college graduates have become the base of the Democrats, while workers without degrees have shifted to the Republicans.

    ONTARIO — An intruder who was shot during a home invasion on Saturday is expected to survive, although he was transported to a local hospital for emergent care following the incident. If he is released from the hospital, Terry Lee Martz, 67, will be taken into custody by law enforcement. However, it will be Idaho law enforcement, as Martz has active felony warrants out of Idaho. Idaho Department of Corrections had Martz listed on its most wanted list since October of 2020. He was listed as a fugitive with a parole violation for kidnapping/rape/sexual abuse of a minor. According to...

    Every day it gets harder to keep up with the accelerating lawlessness of the Biden Administration. The basic strategy is, just do whatever the left wants, using all the vast powers and resources of the federal government, and dare anyone to try to stop you. To mention just a few recent examples, one day it’s a multi-trillion-dollar transformation of the energy economy without Congressional authorization (perhaps slowed down by the Supreme Court’s decision in West Virginia v. EPA); the next day it’s holding meetings to pressure tech giants like Twitter and Facebook to censor the speech of political opponents; next...

    @RepThomasMassie I’m thankful for his principled stand against Biden’s unscientific and immoral mandate. It’s not just about one man who refuses to submit to medical tyranny in order to play tennis. There are thousands of families and friends still separated because of Biden’s vaccine policy. RE: @sophielouisecc Djokovic can’t compete in the US open, he could have very easily just got the jab and made his $ - but decided principles and bodily autonomy are more important than money and trophies and that’s why he will always be a champion in my eyes

    Nasa With the recent release of fascinating images coming out of the James Webb Telescope, there’s been a renewed public interest in deep space. In a new post, NASA Exoplanet, the branch responsible for searching for potential life-bearing worlds beyond our solar system, released the “actual sound” of a black hole. “The misconception that there is no sound in space originates because most space is a vacuum, providing no way for sound waves to travel,” NASA Exoplanets writes in the tweet. “A galaxy cluster has so much gas that we’ve picked up actual sound. Here it’s amplified, and mixed with...

    He's come under intense scrutiny nationally and Stigall has spent a lot of time frustrated by the coverage and messaging in the PA Senate race. Today you'll hear a focused, substantive discussion from Dr. Oz and what he says are media manipulations to dispirit and divide Republican support. Julie Kelly from American Greatness continues to unpack the truth behind the Gov. Whitmer kidnapping plot and discusses the dangers of a weaponized DOJ against fellow Americans. Plus Stigall slices and dices Biden's new bribe to pay off $10K of rich people's student loan debts.
