The city of San Marcos has settled a lawsuit over its handling of the October 2020 “Trump Train” incident involving a Biden-Harris campaign bus. The city said it “continues to deny many of the allegations” made in the lawsuit, but acknowledged that the police department’s response to the incident “did not reflect the Department’s high standards for conduct and attention to duty.” Campaign staffers and volunteers, including former state Sen. Wendy Davis, filed the suit in 2021, accusing the city of not providing assistance or a police escort when the bus was surrounded by a pro-Trump caravan on Interstate 35....

US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has revealed that as of mid-October, a total of four Iranian nationals have been apprehended as they attempted to illegally cross into the US at the Texas border, and were all processed as "special interest aliens." Sources from CBP told Fox News that an Iranian man in his 40s was detained on Sunday morning in Eagle Pass, Texas after he went through the southern border around 3 a.m. That Iranian, along with the other three who were arrested, has received the "special interest alien" label due to the nation of origin, as the US...

President Biden cautioned Israel Wednesday not to make the same mistakes the United States made after the 9/11 terrorist attacks as Israeli forces are expected to prepare a ground offensive in response to terrorist attacks launched by Hamas. Biden delivered remarks in Tel Aviv at the end of a trip to Israel meant to underscore his unwavering support for the Jewish state in the aftermath of the Hamas attacks, which killed more than 1,000 Israelis and has set off concerns about a wider conflict in the region.

In an emotionally charged hearing in Birmingham’s federal court Wednesday morning, it was revealed Joran van der Sloot had confessed to killing Mountain Brook teen Natalee Holloway in Aruba in 2005. The Dutch national from Aruba was long suspected in the disappearance and death and pleaded guilty today to the extortion of Natalee’s mother, Beth. He waived his right to appeal. Van der Sloot, 36, received a 20-year sentence on each of the two convictions. Those sentences will be served concurrently with each other and also concurrently with his sentence in Peru. “You have finally admitted that, in fact, you...

According to reports, Abdesalem Lassoued arrived in Lampedusa in 2011 on a small boat. After residing in Italy for a period, he later traveled to Sweden, but it appears he was subsequently deported from there. In 2016, upon his return to Italy, he was identified in Bologna as having become radicalized, expressing a strong desire to join the jihad and engage in combat. Intelligence services began monitoring his activities. Subsequently, he moved to Belgium. It is possible that yesterday he targeted two Swedish individuals due to his discontent with the country from which he had been expelled. The Belgian federal...

The World Council for Health on Monday convened an international panel of scientists and medical experts to discuss recent revelations that COVID-19 mRNA vaccines are contaminated with bacterial DNA plasmids that can harm human health. Describing the findings as “probably the most important topic of our time,” the panelists addressed “#PlasmidGate” and its implications “for all people of the world.” “Physicians around the globe face the decision whether they want to save themselves or go down in history as accomplices in the greatest crime against humanity. We believe that here lies a real chance,” Bkahdi said. The hearing addressed the...

Presently here in the fall of 2023; Israel is totally surrounded in a raging sea of godless gentile nations which demonically rage against her (Eph. 2:1-3; 6:10-12)! This is no secret to any today as this demonic manifestation is dominating the present global media outlets in all nations. Tragically, it does not help that Israel also is one of the most progressives countries in the world; and at present is in total biblical unbelief; and reject the God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob in unrighteousness (Rom. 9-11). However that is all about to change very shortly as the Holy Scriptures...

The Pentagon disclosed that Chinese fighters have conducted more dangerous intercepts of American military aircraft in the last two years than that of the past decade. This is because China knows we are led by a very weak and compromised president who will do nothing to stop them. These incidents are a tool to show the world China can do what it wants to the United States and there isn't a damn thing we will do about it. China and Russia have sent fighters dangerously close to our aircraft during every presidential administration. One Chinese fighter even collided with an...

Joe Biden flew to the Middle East on Wednesday to meet with leaders at the Hamas-Israeli War escalated overnight. Before he landed the leaders of Jordan and the West Bank announced they would not meet with the American president. Imagine that! During his press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu Old Joe was forced to read softly from his note cards. He was too weak to think and speak for himself. More… Old Joe lost his place too. It did not go unnoticed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Nigel Farage @Nigel_Farage · Follow How embarrassing was that?

VIDEOJoe Biden, channeling Abe Simpson, bored Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu with an absolutely meaningless story that didn't go anywhere. That's what happens when Sleepy Joe veers away from reading his cheat card script which also bored Netanyahu due to the unenthusiastic low energy delivery by Biden.

Moral equivalence has two purposes. One is to enable the morally confused to hide their confusion. The other is to enable the immoral to hide their immorality. Here are two examples as applied to the Israeli-Arab conflict: One is the assertion we hear regarding the latest Israel-Hamas war by members of the Western Left, by Muslim supporters of the Palestinians and even by a few individuals on the Right: “Palestinian babies are as precious as Israeli babies.” Professor Cornel West, a lifelong progressive running for president as a Democrat: “As I have said for the past 50 years, a precious...

The attack on Israel by the forces of the Muslim terrorist organization, Hamas, have once again summoned up the oldest gods in the universe; neither the Hebrew, Christian, nor Muslim gods, but the eternal Gods of the Copybook Headings, as limned by the British poet and novelist Rudyard Kipling in his eponymous poem. Antedating Yahweh, God the Father, and Allah, they are the gods of the eternal verities of human existence whose tenets no amount of liberalism or progressivism or wokism can gainsay…. … The lesson currently being relearned by Israel is that the leopard never changes his spots, and...

It is true that the Pope is a privileged representative of God (laughs), and I must testify to an inner coherence, to the truth...
