Local police have no suspects or additional information(LifeSiteNews) — A Christian and pro-life organization in Colorado was vandalized last week by unidentified individuals who claimed that the tragic deaths of five people during a recent shooting was the result of pro-lifers’ alleged hate of those who “identify” as members of the LGBT community. A mass shooting on November 19 took place at LGBT nightclub Club Q, killing five people and injuring 19. Less than a week later, on Thanksgiving Day, vandals left unsettling graffiti messages outside the Focus on the Family headquarters. Both buildings are located in Colorado Springs. Despite...

On Friday, files released in regards to Twitter’s suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story in 2020 revealed that former Head of Legal, Police, and Trust Vijaya Gadde played a "key role" in the story’s suppression. "The decision was made at the highest levels of the company, but without the knowledge of CEO Jack Dorsey, with former head of legal, policy and trust Vijaya Gadde playing a key role," wrote journalist Matt Taibbi.

Explanation: Bright at infrared wavelengths, this merging galaxy pair is some 500 million light-years away toward the constellation Delphinus. The cosmic mashup is seen against a background of even more distant galaxies, and occasional spiky foreground stars. But the galaxy merger itself spans about 100,000 light-years in this deep James Webb Space Telescope image. The image data is from Webb's Near-InfraRed Camera (NIRCam) and Mid-InfraRed Instrument (MIRI). Their combined, sharp infrared view follows galactic scale restructuring in the dusty merger's wild jumble of intense star forming regions and distorted spiral arms

If you haven’t followed the granular details of how Barack Obama organized the AME Church Network (SC, Clyburn) with the BLM movement (GA, Abrams) in 2020 to control the democracy primary process, then the moves today to codify that approach will not be clear.Once you understand what took place in the 2020 Democrat primary that saw all candidates fall in line behind Biden, according to the process that Obama initiated, then everything centered around the DNC moves today makes buckets of sense.Despite how the media is presenting this, it is not Biden’s plan. This is Obama’s 2024 insider club roadmap,...

President Biden on Friday said that Republican Herschel Walker does not deserve to be in the Senate, just days ahead of the runoff in Georgia on Tuesday. During a stop at the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) in Boston, Biden said the runoff is a choice between two men, Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.), and Walker.

Today’s short and plaintive broadsheet arrives via James Kelly’s Gallows Speeches From Eighteenth-Century Ireland, a source we have enjoyed often in the past. Though we have seen elsewhere via Kelly the capital prosecution of Catholic-Protestant marriages; these, however, appear by the thin text to be instances of the old tradition of bride-stealing — a practice which could straddle the vast distance from elopement ritual and kidnapping/rape. The implication of these texts is that the men did the former, but got prosecuted for the latter: whether that’s down to an initial misunderstanding between the partners, to a change of heart by...

Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said Friday on FNC’s “The Faulkner Focus” that it is just a matter of time before President Joe Biden’s policies lead to an attack on Americans. Graham said, “Well if you are a Border Patrol agent, you feel abandoned by the Biden Administration. I’ve been to the Border Patrol — border many times. I don’t know how they go home at night and get up the next day. They’re seeing human trafficking at a level I’ve never seen. They’re overwhelmed with illegal immigrants coming in. People on the terrorist watch list are going right through.”

Can artificial intelligence write better poetry than humans? The gap between human creativity and artificial intelligence seems to be narrowing. Previous studies have compared AI-generated versus human-written poems and whether people can distinguish between them. Now, a study led by Yoshiyuki Ueda at Kyoto University Institute for the Future of Human and Society, has shown AI's potential in creating literary art such as haiku -- the shortest poetic form in the world -- rivaling that of humans without human help. Ueda's team compared AI-generated haiku without human intervention, also known as human out of the loop, or HOTL, with a...

Huldai says city will reject efforts to let homophobe MK dictate education policy despite right's election win; 'In all the fascist states, the leaders were chosen by the people' Tel Aviv Mayor Ron Huldai on Friday warned that Israel was heading toward becoming a fascist theocracy, as the incoming government moves to put extremists in charge of key education programs and neuter the Supreme Court. "Israel is being transformed from a democracy to a theocracy," Huldai told Channel 12 news in an interview. "The majority cannot (be allowed to) impose its views on the minority." Huldai spoke as he and...

Are you ready for the government to monitor what you buy and sell on a daily basis? Because that is what could happen if you start using the new "digital dollar" that they are now testing. Of course using the new "digital dollar" would be voluntary at first, but what if it eventually becomes mandatory? The use of physical currency continues to decline year after year, and some governments in Europe have already taken radical measures to phase out the use of cash. Many among the elite consider digital currencies to be the key to a whole new era of...

November 14, the Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights launched a federal investigation into an Atlanta elementary school following allegations made by a parent that the principal was segregating students into certain classrooms based on race, CNN reported. The Office for Civil Rights wrote in a letter obtained by the news outlet that it would investigate the accusations that Atlanta Public Schools subjected students “to different treatment based on race” and whether the district retaliated against the parent’s complaint. The investigation into the district was launched over a year after Kila Posey, a mother of two, filed a civil...

When the National Committee for Religious Freedom, headed by former U.S. Senator and Religious Freedom Ambassador Sam Brownback, needed a bank account, they went to JPMorgan Chase. After only a few weeks they learned their account had been closed. Multi-Faith Charity Has Its Account Closed. Why? “I went in to make a deposit at a branch here in Kansas about three or four weeks after we’d opened up the account,” Brownback told us, “And the teller there said ‘That account’s been closed.’ And I go, ‘What?’ and they said, ‘That account’s been closed. Your funds will be sent to you...

Collin Standon, 24, is living the dream after deciding to keep an entire litter of Golden Retriever puppies — in addition to the three dogs he already owned. Standon, who lives in Texas, already was a pet parent to dogs Chloe and Sam — who later went on to have a litter of nine puppies — in addition to Chloe’s sister Emma. Later, he adopted Buddy from a shelter, so the golden retriever wouldn’t be put down. Now, he has 13 fully grown dogs: Buddy, Chloe, Sam, Emma and the nine puppies, named Rocky, Moose, Raider, Cowboy, Pumpkin, Sunshine, Missy,...
