Owen Shroyer’s lawyer, Norm Pattis, says the InfoWars host has disappeared into a ‘blackhole’ since he was sentenced to two months in prison for his alleged role during the January 6 protest. An update posted on his X, formerly Twitter, account reads: “Owen will remain in solitary confinement until 11/28 at the earliest. At that time his normal privileges will be reinstated. For now he is only able to communicate via mail. Despite 23 hours a day of lockdown, he remains in good spirits. ‘I’m as mentally strong as ever.'” Speaking with InfoWars, Pattis said: “I sent a note to...

Hi All: I am not the type of person to post much about my personal life…except with one exception… that is when it concerns decisions regarding my health and the health of family and/or friends. I am a HUGE proponent of prayer… I have seen it move mountains when it looked as if there was no path for deliverance… As such, here goes a request concerning the continuing saga of my right eye…. I will likely need surgery to correct the vision in my right eye (vitrectomy & ERM peel) to address a macular pucker (scar tissue on the retina)...

We’ve all witnessed attempts by the left to normalize pedophilia. Many argue that, following the trans movement nonsense, the left’s next agenda is to make sex with children socially acceptable. To rational-thinking people, this is outrageous, but a closer look at the actions of left-wing media types reveals their relentless targeting of young kids. As a matter of fact, a particularly disturbing example is from the former ‘Recount’ editor and reporter named Slade Sohmer, who has actually received praise from left-wing circles for discussing “sexuality” with elementary school students. Disgusting, right? Well, now, we’re learning that this same monster was...

As Chinese President Xi Jinping traveled to California Wednesday to meet with President Biden amid the annual Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum, experts warned that Biden should limit direct engagement with the communist regime and should not expect Xi to keep any promises in the wake of repeated hostile actions China has taken against the U.S.

Alleged pervert sent undercover FBI agent video of "a prepubescent minor male being anally penetrated by an adult male’s erect penis," but "On January 6, 2021, FBI, Washington Field Office [decided] this investigation was halted due to events that occurred at the United States Capitol Building that day." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On January 6, 2021, the FBI explicitly chose to abandon a sting on a child pornographer in Virginia who was messaging with an undercover agent about having sex with a nine-year-old boy, opting instead to focus on prosecuting Donald Trump’s supporters who stormed the U.S. Capitol. Less than three years later,...

This list only includes destroyed vehicles and equipment of which photo or videographic evidence is available. Therefore, the amount of equipment destroyed is significantly higher than recorded here. Loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles and derelict equipment are not included in this list. All possible effort has gone into avoiding duplicate entries and discerning the status of equipment between captured or abandoned. Many of the entries listed as 'abandoned' will likely end up captured or destroyed. Similarly, some of the captured equipment might be destroyed if it can't be recovered. When a vehicle is captured and then...

The United States Army has removed the COVID-19 vaccine requirement for new recruits.The Army’s recruitment challenges have been mounting in recent years, exacerbated by the stringent COVID-19 vaccine mandates that were previously in place.Recruiting has been hampered by COVID-19 vaccine requirements as well as an increasingly woke military atmosphere where trans soldiers are give special privileges while Christian soldiers are persecuted, bases host drag shows, and leaders with a history of anti-white statements are hired.Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin mandated the experimental COVID-19 vaccine for all military personnel on August 24, 2021, and like thousands of others across the Department of...

... Western and Asian antisemitism compared Antisemitism in China and east Asia is different to how it is generally understood in Europe. In Europe, antisemitism is a unique discourse of hatred against Jewish people. It draws upon a long history of persecution and was heavily embedded within Christianity, culminating in the Holocaust. Jewish people were “othered” as troublemakers and disrupters. Antisemitic tropes further positioned them as plotting world domination and engaging in cultist practices. In contrast in East Asia, Jews and Israel have tended to be attached to a positive image of western modernity and achievement. This results in a...

Via Fernando de Castro in Brazil Prestigious hotels in Colombia, Uruguay, and Argentina are refusing to accommodate former Pink Floyd bassist Roger Waters. The refusal stems from Waters’ anti-Semitic positions. The decision to reject lodging for the left-wing singer and his team is primarily due to his stance on the Hamas-Israel conflict. Waters denied the responsibility of the terrorist group for the October 7 attacks, which claimed over 1,400 lives in Israeli territory. Over 200 Jews are still missing and being held hostage by Hamas in Gaza. A Waters concert is scheduled to take place in the Uruguayan capital this...

Data from the Republic of Maldives provides yet more evidence that the COVID-19 vaccines are not only harmful but lethal, says a prominent vaccine watchdog and COVID establishment critic.On Monday, Vaccine Safety Research Foundation founder Steve Kirsch posted on X that an unidentified source had provided him with complete record-level vaccination and death data from the Maldives Health Ministry for 2021 and 2022, which the source said shows that “death rate increased by 50% within the first six months of vaccination. And then increased again in Oct. 2021 with the boosters.”“Can you guess why no country in the world is...

President Joe Biden suggested Thursday that Americans who are unhappy with the economy are experiencing a “disconnect.” Biden touted a variety of economic statistics during a speech at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit on Thursday, before acknowledging that the American people feel a “disconnect” between the “numbers, and how people feel about their place in the world right now.” As Biden and his administration continue to insist “Bidenomics” is a success, 61% of Americans are living paycheck-to-paycheck and 75% of U.S. adults think the economy is in a “fair” or “poor” state. “The last quarter the American economy grew...

A top executive from the company behind the voting machines that “flipped votes” in Pennsylvania on Tuesday has admitted that “someone from our team programmed the election.”The voting machine issued caused votes in an eastern Pennsylvania county to appear to be “flipped” on a ballot question, officials said Tuesday.Voters were asked to decide whether Pennsylvania Superior Court Judges Jack Panella and Victor Stabile should be retained for additional 10-year terms.The “yes” or “no” votes for each judge were switched on a summary displayed to voters before they cast their ballot, said Charles Dertinger, the Northampton County director of administration.If a...

We must demand immediate action, and take serious responsibility over our own safety. In a recent article I pointed out that the conflict in Israel is very important, but it’s a distraction from another major goal: an attack against the United States that would make 9/11 pale in comparison. Remember, Israel is the “Little Satan” but the U.S. is the “Great Satan.” Jean DuBois makes a similar point. Though the world now rightly focuses on Israel, the world’s sole Jewish state is largely irrelevant as regards the real threat to world peace: militant Islam. If you really want to address...

Federal law since the early 1990s requires mandatory audits for all government agencies. The Pentagon didn’t begin auditing itself until 2018 and has only had incremental improvement yearly. This time around, 1,600 auditors combed through DOD’s $3.8 trillion in assets and $4 trillion in liabilities, conducting some 700 site visits. They found that half of DOD’s assets can’t be accounted for.

American business titans who paid thousands to be in the room with Chinese President Xi Jinping gave the communist country’s leader a standing ovation after his remarks in San Francisco this week. On Wednesday evening, Xi dined with more than 300 American business executives and delivered remarks promoting investment in China, a country many Americans consider the greatest threat to the U.S., at a gala in the ballroom of the Hyatt Regency in downtown San Francisco. [cut] Among the American executives gathered to listen to Xi were Apple CEO Tim Cook, Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla, FedEx CEO Raj Subramaniam, Salesforce...

"By faith [Abraham] lived as an alien in the land of promise, as in a foreign land, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, fellow heirs of the same promise; for he was looking for the city which has foundations, whose architect and builder is God" (Heb. 11:9-10). Focusing on Heaven is the best way to endure difficulties on earth. Following God's call isn't always easy. He expects us to trust Him explicitly, yet doesn't ask our advice on decisions that may impact us dramatically. He doesn't tell us His specific plans at any given point in our lives. He...

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is committing to defending anti-Israel incumbent members who are facing primary challengers in 2024, Politico reported Thursday. Members of the “Squad,” including Democratic Reps. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, Cori Bush of Missouri, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Rashida Tlaib of Michigan and Pramila Jayapal of Washington, continue to call for a ceasefire while repeating anti-Israel sentiments after Hamas, a Palestinian terrorist group, attacked the U.S. ally on Oct. 7. Jeffries will attempt to defend the Progressive Caucus members’ seats in 2024, including those of Omar and Bush, who are facing pro-Israel Democratic primary challengers, as...

Israel is a nation in trauma. Shockwaves reverberated throughout the world when Hamas attacked civilian communities in southern Israel on Oct. 7, slaughtering people of all ages and taking more than 200 hostages. Entire villages now lie empty as the survivors have been forced to flee their homes. With the growing threat of violence in the north, many more have fled. Hundreds of thousands of people are now internally displaced, having lost everything. One kibbutz that is now abandoned is Be’eri. Hamas terrorists breached the “Iron Wall” fence that separates Israel and Gaza, and overran the small agricultural neighborhood at...

VIDEOPerhaps some of you might remember the "Maalox Moment" commercials that used to run frequently on television. Well, perhaps now is a very good time to bring back at least one of those commercials because Antony Blinken most definitely had a Maalox Moment when Joe Biden public called his paymaster, Xi Jinping, a dictator in San Francisco. You can actually see the exact Maalox Moment that Blinken experienced as you could see the extreme pain that ran across his face when the word "dictator" slipped past Biden's lips. It was such an obvious Maalox Moment for Blinken that I even...
