As former President Donald Trump ramps up his 2024 presidential campaign, new polling reveals that while more than half of Americans believe he intentionally did something illegal after his indictment, many believe it was politically motivated. Trump was arraigned Tuesday in New York City on charges stemming from alleged 2016 hush money payments to adult film actress Stormy Daniels, making him the first former president in American history to be criminally charged. A recent ABC News/Ipsos poll found that 48% of Americans think Trump should suspend his presidential campaign following the indictment, up 5 points from last week. The survey...

To see biological males win “woman of the year” awards and others compete against women in sports, and at least one paid to promote sports bras, it’s obvious the American mind has slipped a few gears. But our current troubles are about more than celebrating what is clearly a mental illness that needs to be treated. We have lost our way almost entirely across the board. The locus of our insanity, one could argue, is Washington, D.C. The federal government developed a habit long ago of spending beyond its means. But the foolishness has reached new levels. The federal debt...

Careful, Chad and Stacy, if you plan to do an online post reviewing that old film “The Matrix,” with its discussions of the red pill and such. Because if you decide to just be the first in your group to do that review, especially if your group includes incels, it’s over. And don’t be looksmaxxing, either. Huh? What’s with the above two weird sentences? This: they contain words and phrases the FBI is monitoring because they’re part of a “glossary of terms” the FBI is using to determine words connecting to violence, according to documents accessed by the Oversight Project...

Pray For The Peace of JerusalemMark 15 The Burial of Jesus42 It was Preparation Day (that is, the day before the Sabbath). So as evening approached, 43 Joseph of Arimathea, a prominent member of the Council, who was himself waiting for the kingdom of God, went boldly to Pilate and asked for Jesus’ body. 44 Pilate was surprised to hear that he was already dead. Summoning the centurion, he asked him if Jesus had already died. 45 When he learned from the centurion that it was so, he gave the body to Joseph. 46 So Joseph bought some linen cloth,...

Seems this operation was a lot bigger than just an errant policy paper from a local field office. When news broke a few weeks ago about the FBI targeting the Catholic Church's Latin mass enthusiasts as part of the great Joe Biden hunt for "extremists," outrage ensured, and the bureau moved quickly to dismiss the matter as the doing of an errant field office, which put out a bum policy paper. It certainly wasn't the FBI's policy to target Americans for their beliefs, FBI Director Christopher Wray testified, adding that the miscreants in the Richmond local field office would be...

That’s creating new tensions with the U.S. and its Western allies The ascendance of China in developing country finance threatens to add to the broader trend of “decoupling” that is unraveling trade and technology ties with the West. The debt China is owed by poor countries only consolidates its influence in Africa and other regions. “We are moving to more of a bipolar system with a very significant creditor to a great many countries bent on doing things bilaterally with its own rules,” said Carmen Reinhart, who served as the World Bank’s chief economist until last year and has directly...

God has a preordained plan to deliver us out of our fiery trials. No matter what you are going through, he has a plan tailored for every difficulty, one that could never be conceived by the human mind. For example, take the trials that Israel faced in the desert. There was no bread or food of any kind. What committee could have come up with this idea? “Let’s pray that tomorrow we wake up and discover white flakes of food with a taste of honey covering the ground.” There was no water either, and the hot desert parched their lips....

"Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied" (Matt. 5:6). Your appetite for righteousness should equal your appetite for food and water. David was a man after God's own heart. In Psalm 63:1 he writes, "O God, Thou art my God; I shall seek Thee earnestly; my soul thirsts for Thee, my flesh yearns for Thee, in a dry and weary land where there is no water." He communed with God and knew the blessings of His sufficiency: "The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. . . . He leads me beside...

To science teachers attending a recent convention, the comic book about “Simon the solar-powered cat” seemed unremarkable at first. The story began with Simon, an orange-and-white cat, begging for more food in typical feline fashion. But on page five, the story took an unusual turn: A “friendly scientist” explained that Simon subsisted not on kibble, but on carbon dioxide. The scientist concluded that CO2 was a “miracle molecule” that fueled all life on Earth by helping plants turn sunlight into food..... While it is true that CO2 helps plants grow, its accumulation in the atmosphere will have net negative effects...

Big Tech has a great big dream of destroying the internet. And it’s mostly a reality. The vision of the internet was an open universe, while Big Tech’s vision is the internet reduced to the feed on a few proprietary apps preloaded on your locked phone. Trying to censor the internet of the 90s or the 00s was a laughable proposition, but censoring today’s internet is laughably easy. Want to eliminate a site from the internet? Just wipe it from Google, ban a point of view from Facebook, a book from Amazon, or a video from YouTube. It’s still possible...

During a committee meeting Monday, a Republican member of the Florida House of Representatives called transgender people “mutants” and “demons.” Rep. Webster Barnaby (R-Deltona) made the comments during a hearing on House Bill 1521 that would make it a misdemeanor offense for someone to use a bathroom that doesn’t align with the sex they were assigned at birth. Several LGBTQ advocates and transgender people spoke out against the bill during public comment.

The World Health Organization and United Nations instruct all kindergartens and elementary schools worldwide to teach toddlers masturbation, and tell young children to use pornography. School posters are widely distributed that encourage children to engage in homosexual activities with their classmates, and books are recommended that tell little kids about oral sex. In this evidence report we provide conclusive evidence that this is part of an international operation to normalize pedophilia.

The House Judiciary Committee has subpoenaed FBI Director Christopher Wray for documents related to an FBI operation to infiltrate Catholic churches and develop sources.The subpoena comes amid the House GOP effort to conduct oversight of the Biden administration’s alleged weaponization of government against political dissent or opposing views, including the FBI’s “handling of domestic violent extremism investigations against Catholic Americans,” House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, wrote in a letter to Wray on Monday.

A Missouri Republican state lawmaker posted video on social media that he said showed a group of young kids repeatedly chanting “Let’s go Brandon” in unison at a youth wrestling tournament in Independence last week. The video was posted on Twitter by state Rep. Aaron McMullen, an Independence Republican. McMullen said on Twitter that the video was filmed at Cable Dahmer Arena in Independence, which hosted the Adidas Wrestling Nationals, a K-12 tournament. In the video, the group of kids are seen smacking a wrestling mat between the chants. The phrase has been adopted as a rallying cry in conservative...
