REPOST BY REQUEST – In certain states, the RNC is committed to fighting today’s political battles with yesterday’s weapons. The RNC will not adapt, ever. For everyone else, the baseline reset is understood. If CTH had a small part in helping people to reset their reference points around modern electioneering, well, that’s a good thing.The difference between “ballots” and “votes” is previously explained {SEE HERE} and absolutely critical to understand before moving forward.Thankfully, a large percentage of conservatives, intellectually honest independents and even some GOPe donors, have read our research and are now starting to have the ‘votes‘ vs ‘ballots‘...

In 2018, I wrote a series of articles called God’s Perfect Numbers, based on the numbers 3, 7, 10, and 12 and their biblical significance or representation (https://www.raptureready.com/2018/10/19/gods-perfect-number-part-1-by-randy-nettles/). In this article, I will expound upon one of these “perfect” numbers. The number 12 signifies the perfection of rule or government. “It is found as a multiple in all that has to do with rule. The sun which rules the day; and the moon and stars which govern the night, do so by their passage through the 12 signs of the Zodiac which completes the great circle of the heavens of...

And I'd go to another 4 or 5 big guys and I'll say, 'how 'bout we will be undefeated for many, many years."

While most trans women aren’t winning major titles, here are almost two dozen athletes who have found success. With so much recent public conversation about trans women in women’s sports, I was struck by a post by trans advocate Schuyler Bailar — a trailblazing former NCAA athlete — claiming three trans women who have ever won national or international competitions in the women’s category “don’t exist.” Off the top of my head I could name several, and some digging has found at least 23 trans women who have earned national or international victories. No out trans woman has won an...

"And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. "These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast. These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful." "And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto...

Specifically, the studies by Jost and his colleagues, including Michael Strupp-Levitsky, who conducted the work as an NYU undergraduate and is now a doctoral candidate at Long Island University-Brooklyn, showed that those moral foundations known to be more appealing to liberals than conservatives—specifically, fairness and harm avoidance—are linked to empathic motivation, whereas the moral foundations that are more appealing to conservatives than to liberals —such as ingroup loyalty and deference to authority—are not. In fact, the “binding foundations” cited by previous studies as evidence of a broad “moral palette” are associated with authoritarianism, social dominance, and economic system justification—matters quite...

Republican Senator Lindsey Graham wants assurance from the Senate's Democratic leader prior to voting on the successful House debt ceiling bill, potentially plunging the United States into default unless more financial aid is provided to Ukraine and the U.S. military. Graham made an impassioned speech Thursday on the Senate floor, saying small increases in fiscal year defense spending are not part of a "threat-based budget" but one that lacks safety and security for Americans.
