Slain DHS whistleblower declared a criminal and remains under investigation by Customs and Border Protection for “contraband” and possible U.S. Code violations. Tuesday February 21 marks three years since Philip Haney was “found deceased” in Amador County, California, killed by a gunshot to the chest. The victim, 66, was not the typical Sierra foothills resident. A UC Riverside alum, Philip Haney once worked as an agricultural entomologist in the Middle East, where he studied Arabic and the Quran. With that background, Haney seemed a good fit for the Department of Homeland Security, but it didn’t turn out that way. Philip...

"So that you may approve the things that are excellent" (Phil. 1:10). In a world of mediocrity and confusion, God calls you to excellence and discernment. There's the story of a pilot who came on the loudspeaker mid flight and said, "I have some good news and bad news. The bad news is we've lost all our instrumentation and don't know where we are. The good news is we have a strong tail wind and are making great time." That's an accurate picture of how many people live: they have no direction in life but they're getting there fast! We...

One of my high school teachers was fond of telling us that common sense was not very common. If it ever was common, it seems to be mostly gone now. Today’s self-anointed pharisees, rather than employ common sense to foster the needs of the people, do everything they can to counter it, mostly for their own needs and agenda, regardless of the negative impacts it may have on society as a whole. Of course, common sense is tied to logic and, despite Kamala’s obsession with Venn diagrams, many people today are like the person described in C.S. Lewis’s classic, The...

Pray For The Peace of JerusalemMark 5Jesus Raises a Dead Girl and Heals a Sick Woman21 When Jesus had again crossed over by boat to the other side of the lake, a large crowd gathered around him while he was by the lake. 22 Then one of the synagogue leaders, named Jairus, came, and when he saw Jesus, he fell at his feet. 23 He pleaded earnestly with him, “My little daughter is dying. Please come and put your hands on her so that she will be healed and live.” 24 So Jesus went with him.A large crowd followed and...

Treason? No biggie. Record-breaking and debilitating inflation? At least it’s better than “mean tweets.” Sidewalks covered in human feces and unconscious drug addicts? Only country bumpkins can’t appreciate the culture and progress of a big city under Democrats. But claiming to be something you’re objectively not? Unacceptable. Well, unless you’re a male collegiate athlete who can’t compete against the other men, so you throw on a swimsuit, call yourself “Lia,” and race against the girls. Or, you’re suffering from mental illness so you cut off your sex organs, announce your new “gender” identity, and read/show pornographic material to preschoolers. Then,...

A former MSNBC host is dishing on how she was prohibited from speaking unfavorably about former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton before she ran for president in 2016 without approval from the network’s president. Ex-MSNBC host Krystal Ball is exposing the Left-wing network’s efforts to censor and sway a story to appeal to viewers they want to brainwash. Ball claimed that the cable news staff are “reliable purveyors of whatever it is that that network wants to purvey.”During an interview on Joe Rogan’s podcast, “The Joe Rogan Experience,” she recalled one of her 2014 monologues where she criticized Clinton, urging...

Ghislaine Maxwell is starting another appeal against her recent conviction for sexual abuse - and she's taken on a legal team that know a thing or two about these kinds of cases. Jeffery Epstein's ex-girlfriend and business partner turned to the lawyers of disgraced Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein to help get her out of her 20-year sentence. The appeal, which is estimated to cost $10 million, is set to be filed by the end of the month. Arthur L. Aidala, one of the lawyers who represented the former movie mogul, claimed that Maxwell was "mistreated" during her incarceration. Aidala's appeal...

President Joe Biden visited Kyiv on Monday for the first time since Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine almost a year ago, demonstrating in dramatic personal fashion his commitment to the country and its struggle as the war enters an uncertain new phase. While in Kyiv, Biden met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky as well as first lady Olena Zelenska at the Ukrainian presidential palace. Biden’s visit comes at a critical moment in the 12-month conflict, with Russia preparing for an expected spring offensive and Ukraine hoping to soon retake territory. The United States and other western nations have...

Today a majority of Westerners, especially the corrupt Luciferian rulers of our post-Christian nations, accept that the Christian God is dead, that science, Darwinism, and revolutionary Enlightenment philosophers disproved His existence long ago.

Unlike Force Design 2030, Vision 2035 is a roadmap for a better way forward for the U.S. Marine Corps.In the rush to restructure the Marine Corps from a global force focused on uncertainties to a regional force focused on the certainty of a single threat (China’s Navy), the Marine Corps jettisoned many capabilities needed to fight and win today and in the future. The magnitude of these divestments is reflected in the accompanying graphic.The multiple years’ gap between the divestiture of currently needed force structure, equipment, and logistics and the arrival of new capabilities with proven effectiveness and in sufficient...

Carlos Sanchez, the second street vendor to be attacked in San Jose this week, is speaking out about the assault. He was attacked with a bat on Saturday morning by a manager of a nearby auto parts business. "I was extremely scared. I wasn’t sure what his mental health was like, and what he was thinking," said Sanchez, speaking through a translator. San Jose police arrested 43-year-old Kintex Ho and charged him with assault with a deadly weapon and carjacking. Sanchez says the attack happened after Ho demanded that Sanchez move his grill, claiming it was on Intex Auto Part...

The “HeGetsUs” Christian campaign does not want to take a stance on abortion, claiming the issue has proven too divisive and loses sight of Jesus. “The debate over abortion is a great example of how the real Jesus too often gets lost, overlooked or distorted in debates over political and social issues,” a spokesperson for HeGetsUs told Fox News. […] “HeGetsUs” saw a spike in interest after purchasing two advertisements during the 2023 Superbowl game between the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs. […] The $20 million advertising campaign, funded in part by the family behind religious craft store chain...

A family in Newark, New Jersey, is left with questions after their 12-year-old son collapsed and died suddenly during football practice at a local field. The boy, Elijah Jordan Brown-Garcia, was reportedly performing drills along with his team, the Essex County Predators, at the West Side Park football field when he collapsed. Team officials say that Brown-Garcia was not engaged in heavy activity at the time, according to News 12. “No contact. It was just drills running back and forth. He didn’t get hit,” said his mother, Raven Brown. “He was a healthy kid…I don’t know why Friday night was...

A US Navy admiral begged the Cuomo administration to send patients to the nearly-empty hospital ship docked on the Hudson River during the height of the pandemic — but his pleas were met with politics and paranoia, The Post has learned. With city medical facilities packed with critically ill COVID patients in the spring of 2020 — and just days after the infamous edict by Gov. Andrew Cuomo to send COVID patients to nursing homes, which critics say resulted in thousands of deaths — the Trump administration sent the USNS Comfort, a 1,000-bed ship, to relieve hospitals of patients with...

Tens of thousands of protesters are expected to gather in Jerusalem Monday for a mass demonstration against the government’s judicial reform plan. The protest coincides with a vote by the Knesset on a linchpin bill of the judicial reform plan. The proposed legislation, which is expected to pass its first reading Monday, would increase the influence of the Knesset and government over the appointment of judges. Currently, just four of the nine members of the judicial selection committee are from the government and Knesset, with the remaining five members being judges and members of the Israel Bar Association. In addition,...

Freedom Works. 2 words that are magic together. But not always true. The fantasy of gazing at the exquisite form of a babe like Gloria Vanderbilt is wonderful (click the red link under the above title if you are wondering where the proof is) but, for most of us, it IS a fantasy. Roosevelt and Rockwell sounded and looked great in putting forward powerful words and images for freedom, but the big government stupidity, which got a huge kick along from FDR, ravages freedom over and over again now across the western world. Edward The Sixth's Regency Council put through...
