KYIV, Ukraine — Ukrainian leader Zelenskyy says his nation is submitting an ‘accelerated’ application to join the NATO military alliance.

Russia tends to justify its expansionist wars by claiming that it is merely protecting Russian-speaking minorities in foreign countries. Of the six million people residing in the Baltics, approximately one million (17 per cent) are ethnically Russian. Ballooning the Baltics’ Russian population would allow Putin to more easily justify a future invasion on phony-humanitarian grounds.... Pro-war sentiment has also been observed in the Russian diaspora, particularly in Germany, where Ukrainians living there have been harassed by ethnic Russians so often that many no longer feel safe in the country.... They believe that a significant portion of Russian draft dodgers are...

(Wow! Pepe is on a roll!!) This episode of Hybrid Industrial/Commercial War, in the form of a terror attack against energy infrastructure in international waters signals the absolute collapse of international law, drowned by a “our way or the highway”, “rules-based”, order. The attack on both pipelines consisted of multiple explosive charges detonated in separate branches close to the Danish island of Bornholm, but in international waters. That was a sophisticated operation, carried out in stealth in the shallow depth of the Danish straits. That would in principle rule out submarines (ships entering the Baltic are limited to a draught...

Soon after he rose to power 22 years ago, Russian President Vladimir Putin cracked down on the open antisemitism that nearly all of his predecessors had either encouraged, tolerated or ignored. Now, as Russia’s war effort in Ukraine founders, openly anti-Jewish rhetoric is entering the country’s mainstream media, with a popular talk show host naming Jews on air as being insufficiently patriotic and a think tank accusing a prominent Jewish philosopher of siding with Ukraine out of greed. The shift in rhetoric about Jews in Russian media began about two months ago, according to Roman Bronfman, a former Israeli lawmaker...

WASHINGTON – Before then-President Donald Trump visited a US Navy base in Japan in 2019, his team asked officials to keep a ship named for one of Trump’s Republican rivals – the late Sen. John McCain – out of sight, newly released Navy emails confirm. When reports of the White House request initially surfaced, Navy officials told reporters a painting tarp that obscured the ship’s name from view in the days before Trump’s visit was placed there for maintenance reasons – but the documents released Wednesday confirm that was untrue. “The name of USS John S. McCain was not obscured...

Editor: Hollywood spent billions making dystopian movies in the early 2000s. The most recent generation of voters came of age watching “The Hunger Games” and other movies for such a time as this. Enter John Fetterman candidate for U.S. Senate from the “traditionally minded” state of Pennsylvania. He usually appears in his costume of long shorts, basketball shoes and an oversized hoodie. His arms are decorated with cryptic black tattoos. The Democratic Party is pretending that Fetterman is more than qualified to represent Pennsylvania and be one of the 100 members of this august group of legislators, the U.S. Senate....

Seattle Children’s Hospital is standing by its “mission” of providing gender surgeries for children. Many of these irreversible gender surgeries consist of removing healthy tissue and leaving the patients permanently sterilized.

Explanation: Fifteen days before impact, the DART spacecraft deployed a small companion satellite to document its historic planetary defense technology demonstration. Provided by the Italian Space Agency, the Light Italian CubeSat for Imaging Asteroids, aka LICIACube, recorded this image of the event's aftermath. A cloud of ejecta is seen near the right edge of the frame captured only minutes following DART's impact with target asteroid Dimorphos while LICIACube was about 80 kilometers away. Presently about 11 million kilometers from Earth, 160 meter diameter Dimorphos is a moonlet orbiting 780 meter diameter asteroid Didymos. Didymos is seen off center in the...

Joe Biden launched a hate campaign against Trump voters on September 1. A wave of political violence against Republicans in the weeks since proves it worked. Like a modern-day Father Coughlin, at the beginning of the month, His Fraudulency Joe Biden stood in front of Independence National Historical Park in Philadelphia to demonize and dehumanize the 65 million Americans who dared not vote for Joe Biden. “MAGA Republicans do not respect the Constitution,” Biden screamed during his primetime address while bathed in a satanic red glow. “They do not believe in the rule of law. They do not believe in...

Russian President Putin:- We're witnessing sheer satanism in West - Do we want our children to be offered operations on sex changes? It's unacceptable! - Our future is different. We're fighting for a great, historic Russia… Vladimir Putin: “We are witnessing Satanism”

Moscow planned to celebrated the annexation of huge swathes of Eastern Ukraine Friday but Putin’s party was wrecked by a lightning counter-attack that may have trapped thousands of his men in a key city supposedly now part of Russia. Ukrainian sources claimed that the strategic city of Lyman, which has served as a Russian military hub in Donetsk, has been encircled and supply lines cut. “Lyman! The operation to encircle the Russian group is at the stage of completion,” said Ukrainian lawmaker Oleksiy Goncharenko on Friday. The claim could not be independently verified but, if confirmed, it would be one...

Micron Technology Inc. executives warned about a semiconductor downturn in late June, but now say that a “sharp and sudden” drop in demand exceeded even those expectations, suggesting the current chip glut could get a lot worse. Micron MU, 0.74% reported a worse-than-expected fiscal fourth quarter Thursday, with revenue plunging 23% from last year, but that wasn’t the big miss. Executives guided for $4 billion to $4.5 billion in revenue in the current quarter, more than $1 billion lower than analysts’ expectations, and suggested they could post a loss in the quarter even on an adjusted basis. “As we look...

“‘He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. This is the judgment, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light, for their deeds were evil. For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But he who practices the truth comes to the Light, so that his deeds may be manifested as having...

ORLANDO, FLORIDA - SEPTEMBER 29: A car sits in floodwater after Hurricane Ian on September 29, 2022 in Orlando, Florida. The hurricane brought high winds, storm surge and rain to the area Jimmy Patronis, Florida’s chief financial officer and state fire marshal, warned during an interview on Thursday that con artists often look for ways to take advantage of people following major natural disasters, including tricking people into signing away their claims. “You have these predators that will come in, and they will go door-to-door canvassing neighborhoods that they see the damage and they will sign over their claims to...

Jesus ordered his disciples into a boat that was headed for a collision. “Immediately Jesus made his disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, while he sent the multitudes away” (Matthew 14:22, NKJV). The Old King James says he “constrained [them] to get into a ship…” that was headed for troubled waters where it would be tossed about like a bobbing cork. The disciples would be thrust into a mini-Titanic experience, and Jesus knew it all the time. Where was Jesus? He was up in the mountains overlooking that sea. He was there probably...

The CDU/CSU Christian Democratic Union suffered defeat in the Bundestag with a proposal to increase military support for Ukraine. In a roll-call vote, 179 MPs voted in favour of the proposal, 476 were against and one abstained, the German public broadcaster ARD reported. The motion called for “an immediate and noticeable increase in German support in terms of quantity and quality”. Ralf Stegner, MP of Germany's ruling Social Democratic Party (SDP), described the motion as “unnecessary”. In turn, Johann Wadephul, CDU/CSU parliamentary group vice-chair, stressed that, in view of Russia’s partial mobilisation, Ukraine now needs decisive support. “This also requires...
