    Residents of a Long Beach neighborhood are shaken up after an arsonist was caught on camera setting their American flags on fire. A doorbell camera captures the man lighting up the flags in the middle of the night on Thursday. He was arrested several hours after the attacks, tracked down by authorities at a nearby park. Authorities say the suspect has struck at least 14 homes in the same neighborhood. In a video provided by a neighbor who wished to remain anonymous, the suspect sets the flags on fire with a lighter. He appears to be relaxed, keeping one hand...

    A high-ranking US military officer is facing backlash for calling the cops on a mom who complained about sexual preference posters at her daughter's school. Telling her story on Tucker Carlson Tonight, New Jersey mother Angela Reading revealed she was told she was being 'monitored' by local law enforcement, after airing concerns about posters hanging at the entrance of her seven-year-old's school in North Hanover Township. Reportedly part of an assignment to create a 'safe space' for students, the colorful art installations contain language that tout different sorts of sexuality, including the virtues of being both 'poly-' and 'pansexual' -...

    Isaiah 9:6 is quoted frequently at Christmastime. You may have seen the passage on Christmas cards, oftentimes along with a manger scene. The well-known (but usually not fully understood) verse reads, “To us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” Notice that the first three phrases correlate to three distinct events in the ministry of Jesus, each separated by time. First, he was born. Then 33 years later, the Son of God was given as...

    KYIV, Ukraine (AP) – Russian forces have “destroyed” the eastern Ukrainian city of Bakhmut, President Volodymyr Zelensky said, while Ukraine’s military on Saturday reported missile, rocket and air strikes in multiple parts of the country that Moscow is trying to conquer after months of resistance. The latest battles of Russia’s 9 1/2 month war in Ukraine have centred on four provinces that Russian President Vladimir Putin triumphantly — and illegally — claimed to have annexed in late September. The fighting indicates Russia’s struggle to establish control of those regions and Ukraine’s persistence to reclaim them.

    The Repentance of Pastors Is The Only Hope For America: Trusted Church Leader Responds To The Dis-Respect For Marriage Act" Trusted Church Leader Responds To The Dis-Respect For Marriage Act After receiving full Congressional approval on Thursday, the so-called Respect For Marriage Act, officially rejecting God’s definition of marriage, now awaits President Biden’s enthusiastic signature. Despite claims by Biden that the Respect For Marriage Act brings the United States “one step closer on our journey to build a more perfect union,” trusted ministry leaders and religious freedom advocates are warning of the legislation’s legal and Biblical ramifications. “This shows that...

    BATTLEFIELD, NEAR FAYETTEVILLE, ARK., Tuesday, Dec. 8. Gen. HERRON's forces, en route to reinforce Gen.

PARSONS, MARMADUKE, FROST and RAINS, all under Gen. HINDMAN, and embraced the flower of the Trans-Mississippi army, well supplied with eighteen pieces of artillery. The enemy ranked Gen. BLUNT's positions at Cane Hill, and made a sudden attack on Gen. HERRON, to prevent him uniting with Gen. BLUNT. Gen. HERRON's force consisted of the Ninety-fourth...

    If you’ve read my energy storage report, or just the summaries of parts of it that have appeared on this blog, you have probably thought: this stuff is kind of obvious. Surely the powers that be must have thought of at least some of these issues, and there must be some kind of official position on the responses out there somewhere. So I thought to look around for the closest thing I could find to the Official Party Line on how the U.S. is supposedly going to get to Net Zero emissions from the electricity sector by some early date....

    On Monday afternoon, just before 3:30 p.m., the couple heard their animals making the kind of noises that might warrant an inspection. According to Lieutenant Michael Arens of the San Diego County Sheriff's San Marcos Station, the couple went outside for peace of mind, but instead saw 36-year-old Alexander Belinksy attempting to abscond with one their goats. The couple attempted to intervene, but Belinsky allegedly threw them to the ground. The 79-year-old may have regarded goat theft to be a matter suited to remedy by bare hands, but an assault on his wife was apparently cause for a constitutionally-protected riposte....

    Seems the U.S. election wasn't the only election Twitter saw fit to meddle in. Did Twitter get involved in another election? Maybe yes, according to Mr. Musk. This is the story: Twitter owner Elon Musk said on Saturday he thought it was "possible" that personnel at the social media firm gave preference to left-wing candidates during Brazil's election this year, without providing evidence.Musk completed his acquisition of Twitter on Oct. 27, just days before Brazil's presidential second round runoff vote, when far-right incumbent Jair Bolsonaro was defeated by leftist Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva."I've seen a lot of concerning tweets...

    (Daily readings from the USCCB)“I tell you that Elijah has already come, and they did not recognize him but did to him whatever they pleased. So also will the Son of Man suffer at their hands.” Then the disciples understood that he was speaking to them of John the Baptist. Matthew 17:12–13The last of the Old Testament Prophets was Malachi. He concluded his ministry about 400 years prior to the coming of Christ. Malachi prophesied that a “messenger” would come before the Messiah so as to prepare the way before Him. Malachi goes on further to say that “Elijah the...

    Assorted authoritarian leftist whackos are deep into the process of turning Canada into a far less populated version of China. Christine Gauthier is a retired Canadian army corporal and former Paralympian, who has been restricted to a wheelchair since surviving an accident when she was in the service. Gauthier recently testified that she has been waiting years for a wheelchair lift for her home. She also testified that when she expressed her frustration to a Veteran Army of Canada (VAC) caseworker, she was promptly offered the option of being euthanized. According to a report in PJ Media, the caseworker allegedly...

    The Federal Reserve has raised interest rates six times this year in its effort to lower inflation—currently at 7.7%—to what it considers to be the ideal level of 2%. But how did the central bankers decide that 2% is ideal rather than some other number? It’s a question several Fed critics have raised. On Friday, Bank of America was the latest to weigh in on the matter, saying bluntly, “there is nothing special about 2%.” The Fed has company in its 2% inflation target. Several countries have the same target, seemingly giving more confirmation that 2% is perfect. Bank of...

    Seems some Republican senators are getting their spines back. Despite the midterm elections loss of four compelling Republican Senate candidates, a handful of persistent, emboldened senators have stepped forward to re-establish their authority, thereby creating the beginning of a paradigm shift in the Senate's balance of power. In addition, on January 3, four new senators, all oriented to America First, will take their seats. Beginning with the November 16 challenge to Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.)'s thirty-year reign, ten senators voted to oppose his 2022 reappointment. Known for unyielding control of the legislative process and repeated dictates to a subservient Republican...
