First Australia and New Zealand over the weekend, and now that it's Monday, it's another bad day to wake up a leftist. Over in Ecuador, where an assassination took out a conservative frontrunner to its presidential race just weeks before the vote, another rightwinger stepped up to the plate to openly and directly reject socialism -- and sure enough, got elected, 52.3-47.7. According to the Financial Times: Daniel Noboa has won Ecuador’s presidential election as the South American country battles an unprecedented crime wave and an ailing economy. Noboa, a centre-right former lawmaker, beat leftist rival Luisa González in a...

"And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband." "He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son." "For who maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it?" Revelation 21 1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed...

NEBUCHADNEZZAR HOW NEBUCHADNEZZAR’S SALVATION WAS SURPRISING: 1. HIS UNPARALLELED WEALTH AND POWER—As Jesus instructs, “It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.” 2. GOD REPEATEDLY DEMONSTRATES HIS SOVEREIGNTY—First through Daniel’s miraculous ability to discern and interpret his dream, and then by the miraculous deliverance of the three young Hebrews from the furnace. 3. DESPITE NEBUCHADNEZZAR’S REPEATED ACKNOWLEDGMENTS OF GOD, HE WRESTLES WITH PRIDE—He leaves God with...

Former Mayor Bill de Blasio said New York City must be on alert to thwart terrorism in the Big Apple following Hamas’ surprise invasion of Israel. “Of course we stand with the people of Israel,” de Blasio said Sunday on WABC 770 AM’s “The Cats Roundtable” with host John Catsimatidis Sunday. “We’ve got to condemn [terrorism] wholeheartedly the second you see it. New Yorkers have felt terrorism. We know exactly what terrorism is, in ways that a lot of other people have not experienced,” the former mayor said, alluding to the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks. He said Hamas’ slaughter...

Kentucky Republican Rand Paul warned of a little-known federal law that allows the president of the United States to shut down the internet with a “kill switch.” Paul warned that the government’s ” emergency powers ” can remove freedoms in the name of safety and security, including an internet “kill switch” to turn off the Internet. “We’ve also looked at the emergency powers and emergency powers — you know the courts have said you don’t throw out the Constitution during emergencies — but a lot of our legislation acts as if you could throw things away,” Paul told Atlas on...

9:15 AM Judgment on Philistia ? Isa 14:29 Rejoice not thou, whole Palestina, because the rod of him that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a cockatrice, and his fruit shall be a fiery flying serpent. Isa 14:30 And the firstborn of the poor shall feed, and the needy shall lie down in safety: and I will kill thy root with famine, and he shall slay thy remnant Isa 14:31 Howl, O gate; cry, O city; thou, whole Palestina, art dissolved: for there shall come from the north a smoke, and none shall...

Mold in Army barracks has become an increasingly common problem at bases around the country. But the issue isn’t the mold, according to the commander of the 1st Armored Division, but rather discipline within the Army. Soldiers, Maj. Gen. James P. Isenhower III said, simply need to be better about “adulting.” And the general wants to be clear, he meant that negatively. Isenhower made the remarks on Wednesday, Oct. 11 at a panel at the Association of the United States Army conference. He and Lt. Gen. Omar J. Jones IV took questions from the crowd, including from one soldier who...

If House Republicans won't rally behind Rep. Jim Jordan or another GOP member to become speaker, GOP Rep. Mike Turner said Sunday that "obviously" a "deal will have to be done" with Democrats for a leader of the lower chamber. Turner, a Republican from Ohio who chairs the House Intelligence Committee, told "Face the Nation" moderator Margaret Brennan on Sunday that Jordan, the right-wing Judiciary Committee chair, is his pick for McCarthy's successor. Rep. Nancy Mace of South Carolina said the same during an appearance on "Face the Nation" last weekend. Mace was one of eight Republican members of the...

As the specter of real terrorism engulfs the news in Israel, don't forget that the FBI has ideas of its own about who the "real" terrorists are. Newsweek recently reported that the FBI has clandestinely created a new subcategory of domestic terrorists that it intends to target going forward. The group has been labeled AGAAVE, which stands for anti-government, anti-authority violent extremism, but which is neither anarchist, a militia, or a sovereign citizen group. The group? Supporters of former President Donald Trump, of course. Those dastardly Make America Great Again types. As part of a three-month-long investigation, Newsweek spoke to...

SAN FRANCISCO - The Jewish Community Relations Council says it's "deeply disturbed" by some of the graffiti seen in San Francisco following Saturday's pro-Palestinian rally. The organization posted pictures on social media showing anti-Jewish messages spray-painted on windows along Market Street. Vandals painted in red: "Death to Zionists." "Kill a Settler." and "Death to Isael."

It has now been almost two weeks since every Democrat in the House joined eight Republicans in ousting Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) from the speaker’s office. It does not appear that House Republicans are even a single step closer to picking a new leader. Time is running out. The temporary spending authority that triggered the Republican malcontent’s coup against McCarthy runs out in four weeks. Congressional action to authorize aid to Israel in its fight against Hamas may come before then. When those deadlines approach, the House will have to vote to give temporary powers to Speaker Pro Tempore Patrick...

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy wanted to make a solidarity visit to Israel amid the country’s war against Hamas, but was told that “the time is not right”. The Times of Israel in a report mentioned Hebrew-language media saying Zelenskky, who has issued a strong defense of Israel after the assault from Hamas, wanted to pay a solidarity visit to the war-hit Israel. Zelenskyy had earlier said Israel had an unquestionable right to defend itself from attacks from Palestinian terrorists.

The Israeli government says it has identified and notified the families of 199 people known to be held since the terrorist attack ten days ago. The number of hostages held by Hamas terrorists in Gaza has been revised upwards from at least 150 as stated last week to 199 today, the Israeli government has said, reports The Times of Israel. Israel Defence Force (IDF) spokesman Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari said the families of the 199 hostages has been “updated” and that trying to get those taken back is a “top national priority”.

Board members at Columbia University are facing calls from thousands of people to remove a tenured professor from his position after he praised Hamas brutal terror assault on Israel last week as an 'awesome stunning victory.' Joseph Massad, a history and politics lecturer, made the stunning remarks in an article published on a website named Electronic Intifada on Sunday, one day after the unprecedented attack began. In the same article, Massad referred to Israel as 'cruel colonizers' and called Hamas' barbaric actions 'astonishing,' 'astounding,' 'awesome' and 'incredible.'

As Israel prepares to wipe out Hamas, ordering a million Gaza residents out of Gaza City, leftists here in the states already are making big plans for having those displaced residents come on over to the U.S. and make their home here. According to the New York Post: Experts predict a million refugees might flee the Gaza Strip amid the war between Israel and Hamas, and socialists and far-left lawmakers said America should welcome them. “Fifty percent of the population in Gaza are children. The international community as well as the United States should be prepared to welcome refugees from...
