For ambulatory patients on systemic anticancer therapy, anticoagulants do not reduce the risk of arterial thrombotic events (ATEs) and are associated with increased bleeding risk, according to a review. Yan Xu, M.D. and colleagues examined the efficacy and safety of anticoagulants in ATE prevention among ambulatory cancer patients. The researchers performed a systematic review of studies comparing oral or parenteral anticoagulation with no anticoagulation among patients receiving systemic anticancer therapy with no other indication for anticoagulation. Data were included from 14 randomized trials involving low-molecular-weight heparins, direct oral anticoagulants, and warfarin. ATEs (myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, intra-abdominal arterial embolism, or...

President Biden sat down for a recent interview in which he said the United States is low on 155 mm artillery ammunition rounds, sparking outrage and questions of competency from conservatives on social media. During the interview, which aired Sunday morning, Biden defended his administration for sending cluster munitions to Ukraine as a "transition period" until more munitions are produced. "This is a war relating to munitions. And they’re running out of that ammunition, and we’re low on it," Biden told CNN's Fareed Zakaria. "And so, what I finally did, I took the recommendation of the Defense Department to –...

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (WFLA) — A sticky puddle of lemonade wasn’t the only thing to be canned from a 7-Eleven store in St. Petersburg late Sunday night. Police said that 35-year-old Clearwater clerk, Miles Jenkins “got frustrated with a customer over payment” and “threw a Big Gulp cup filled with lemonade at [her].” The woman told police the flying lemonade struck her in the left side of her head. Three other customers in the store at the time told officers they witnessed the battery. Authorities said Jenkins also “made spontaneous statements admitting to striking [the woman] with the drink.” Officers...

A gathering of the Michigan Republican party on Saturday night turned physical and put one person in the emergency room, another 'kicked in the balls and cops called to break up the brawl. Tensions boiled over at the Doherty Hotel in Clare, Michigan, as the GOP's state committee came together to discuss the party's direction and the leadership under new chairwoman Kristina Karamo. As Michigan Republicans arrived at the venue, some found that the door where the meeting was taking place had already been locked and was limited to members of the state committee. It left some Republicans frustrated as...

In the final part of this eight-part series on what one must believe to be a Christian, Stanley flat out argues that we must not insist that Christians believe in the inerrancy of the bible in order to be a Jesus follower, saying that demanding potential converts believe the bible is true and without error is an unnecessary obstacle to them coming to Christ. (In) every generation, new and novel ideas (like biblical inerrancy) get woven into certain expressions of the Christian faith and into certain traditions, new and novel ideas. Some are harmless, some, we’ve discovered, are a little...

Step into a big Baptist church on Sunday morning and chances are you’ll hear the same popular worship songs played at other big churches around the country. But show up in a small church, and you never know what you’ll find — anything from “How Great Thou Art” to “Take Me Home, Country Roads.” “Smaller churches are like the Wild West,” said Will Bishop, associate professor of church music and worship at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky. “Anything goes.” Bishop has been working on a recent survey project to better understand the worship music used in local churches,...

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D) is considering signing legislation into law that would allow illegal aliens, enrolled in the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, to become police officers in the sanctuary state. Democrat legislators, with a supermajority in the Illinois House and Senate, passed legislation late last month that would allow thousands of DACA illegal aliens living in the state to become police officers or deputy sheriffs.

The UN recently announced that they need “7 Years of Accelerated, Transformative Action to Achieve SDGs.” The SDGs are the seventeen “Sustainable Development Goals” that the UN put in place eight years ago through which they intend to establish a one-world government. Below is a quote from the UN’s website regarding the upcoming summit during which they hope the leaders of the world will commit to a seven-year initiative to achieve all their SDGs: The SDG Summit in September 2023 must signal a genuine turning point. It must mobilize the political commitment and breakthroughs our world desperately needs. It must...

On June 22, 2023, expert Bible prophecy teacher Amir Tsarfati said: When many look at the world around us, they see chaos. I see something different. I see God warning the people of this world that His judgment is coming soon. The Bible shows us that this is the way He operates – warning, then judgment. God sent Noah to warn the world that His judgment was coming. He sent angels to warn Sodom and Gomorrah that judgment was coming. He sent prophets to Israel to warn them judgment was coming. And He told the whole church of the signs...

Alina Habba will take the lead in a new position for the Save America Leadership PAC, according to a press release on Friday. Habba is set to take over as the PAC’s legal spokesperson and general counsel while maintaining her position in assist Trump with “certain legal matters.” Trump’s communication director described the now-ex-general counsel as having performed “diligently” and “tirelessly” regarding the “many witch-hunt cases that have...

Televangelist Joyce Meyer shared with her followers that she’s on the mend and doing better after taking a fall last month that saw her break an ankle and have surgery that resulted in a blood clot forming, resigning her to a wheelchair all last month. 80-year-old Joyce Meyers is long thought to be one of the ‘Big three’ heretics, along with Kenneth Copeland and Benny Hinn. Popular with women and effeminate men, the famed multi-millionaire televangelist’s ministry brings in over $100 million yearly and is known for her word-faith teachings. We tagged her recently after it was revealed she was...

New court documents show that DOJ prosecutor Jay Bratt, an Obamaite-Russiagate-DNC donor, redacted every reference to Trump cooperating with subpoenas. Recall, Jay Bratt tried to bribe Walt Naut’s lawyer Stanley Woodward in order to get his client to testify against Trump. New court documents show Jay Bratt purposely redacted all references to Trump cooperating with grand jury subpoenas. Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart approved new aspects of the Trump Mar-a-Lago search warrant to be unsealed.

[Captioned]: 23andme for trans people? I convinced my friend to take a 23andme DNA test for fun (she was born male but now identifies as female), and her results came back with a Y-DNA haplogroup and only one X chromosome. This was really problematic for her and made her feel uncomfortable. Does anyone know if 23andme makes any accommodations for trans people? Has anyone here had any experience with it?

The Supreme Court’s decision banning college-admission based on race was a good first step, but the challenge now is to see that schools abide by it. Indeed, no sooner did the court rule than President Joe Biden vowed not to let the decision “be the last word.” *** Back in 1998, I knew my odds of getting into medical school, as an Indian-American, would be better if I were black. So, being dark-skinned, I pretended I was black — and got accepted, despite a mediocre 3.1 GPA. Once there, though, I found the going rough and dropped out. *** More...

"Offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ" (1 Pet. 2:5). Every faculty you have is to be used for God’s glory. In Romans 12:1 Paul pleads with believers to present their bodies to God as a living and holy sacrifice, which is an appropriate and acceptable act of worship. But as someone has rightly said, the problem with living sacrifices is they tend to crawl off the altar. That's because sacrificial living demands spiritual discipline and constant dependence on the Holy Spirit. We as Christians aren't always willing to do that. According to Paul, the motivation and...

A triumphant church is rising up today, coming out of great trials of faith. This last-days church is emerging from long days of affliction and adversity. The Holy Spirit is at work bringing his people out of a reliance on themselves so that he can show himself strong. Even if you’ve been walking with Jesus for years, you may today be facing a time of severe testing in your life. Things coming at you seem to be overwhelming, things that only God can do something about, and you realize that only he can bring you through. This is exactly where...
