The law did not require Jews to be at the Temple in Jerusalem, as this was not one of the pilgrimage festivals. Every one observed it in his own place, not as a holy time. Jesus was there that He might improve those eight days of holiday for good purposes. Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon’s porch when the Sadduciens asked him “How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou be the Christ tell us.” They pretended to want to know the truth, as if they were ready to embrace it; but it was not their intention....

Fool's Ball Week 14!!!!!!!!!! Your home for all things Fool's Ball! In Memoriam Danny Lee (BENDER2)

Attacks against University of California, Berkeley, students wearing Israeli flags aren't being investigated as hate crimes, said a graduate student who claimed the students were assaulted because of their Jewish identities. In two incidents, assailants aggressively tried to take Israeli flags from students, shoving and cursing at them in the process, videos reviewed by Fox News show. In one, a crowd gathered around a student draped in an Israeli flag who was struck in the head with a metal water bottle. The videos are part of a lawsuit filed last week by the Brandeis Center — a pro-Israel nonprofit —...

Twice-failed Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has accused President Donald Trump of using psychological “projection” of his own behavior onto other people. In the eyes of many Americans, Democrats have a particular habit of publicly accusing Republicans of engaging in the same actions that they routinely do. This hypocritical habit is known as “projection.” However, according to “election denier” Clinton, it is her arch-rival Trump who is guilty of engaging in such projection, the Inquisitr reported. Rather ironically, Clinton’s accusation of projection against Trump is itself a clear-cut example of such hypocritical duplicity. In September, the Huffington Post reported that...

Special Counsel Jack Smith has requested permission from the Obama-appointed judge overseeing his case to address the jury and smear President Donald Trump as an “election denier” and an “insurrectionist.” Smith is looking for permission to offer the jury “evidence” that he claims will expose Trump’s attempts to foster doubt about the election process. This comes as Smith is attempting to prosecute Trump for his actions on Jan. 6. The events of January 6, 2021, occurred around the time that Smith asserts that Trump was sewing doubt about the elections, as POLITICO reported. The prosecutor asserts that such information would...

mRNA vaccines were affected by the glitch but no adverse effects were created, Cambridge researchers say ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ More than a quarter of people injected with mRNA Covid jabs suffered an unintended immune response created by a glitch in the way the vaccine was read by the body, a study has found. No adverse effects were created by the error, data show, but Cambridge scientists found such vaccines were not perfect and sometimes led to nonsense proteins being made instead of the desired Covid “spike”, which mimics infection and leads to antibody production. mRNA jabs, such as the ones created by...

Family meetings have long been a practice for wealthy families like the Rockefellers (who hold them twice a year). But with more complex issues facing families that affect family members’ time, money, and wishes, it is a good practice for every family to undertake, regardless of their wealth. Spending a great deal of my time helping individuals and loved ones prepare for future challenges, as well as having personally been through the deaths of parents and caring for an aging father-in-law, I know firsthand how important it is to talk through these issues with your family. Here are three topics...

The two teachers sued EUSD in April over its policy requiring teachers to refer to students in school by the names and pronouns they choose to correspond to their “gender identities.”

During last Thursday’s Congressional hearing on the Weaponization of the Federal Government, Democratic members of Congress insisted that censorship efforts of groups like the Cyber Threat Intelligence League (CTIL), the Election Integrity Partnership (EIP), and the Virality Project (VP) were benign and not a violation of the First Amendment. “It's not the First Amendment!” said Rep. Dan Goldman, “It's the [social media platforms’] Terms of Service.... And they are flagging it for the social media companies to make their own decisions. That is not the First Amendment. That is the Terms of Service.” But the CTIL Files, a trove of...

Illinois Senator Dick Durbin is a clear and present danger to the National Security and future of the United States of America. The senior Democratic Senator that serves as the Senate Democratic whip and chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee has recently emerged from his milquetoast shell as an opponent to the Republic for which its stands. Durbin leads a Democratic party that views the invasion of 8 million illegals under the BIden Administration as a voting block and enforcement arm against taxpaying U.S. Citizens. Relishing in the possibility of millions of non assimilated military aged men given the power...

The six Republicans are accused of falsifying records and each face two felony charges. A Nevada grand jury has indicted the six Republicans — including the chair of the Nevada Republican Party — who falsely pledged Nevada’s electoral votes to Donald Trump following the 2020 election despite President Joe Biden’s victory in the state.

This is a subject that I wish got more attention. My late husband was a victim of a scam at a time when he was too ill to have this kind of stress. I’ve held a hard grudge since. That particular scam was different but the premise is the same. Hit the victim emotionally and get the money by any means.. Scammer Payback is one of my favorites, but there are several working on various platforms that do amazing work. I watch how they target these low life scum, using their computers and cameras against them, stealing their files, finding...

Don’t conserve institutions that hate youAmerica’s institutions certainly have an agenda, but it is clear that they no longer serve the interests of American citizens.At their founding, the institutions of a civilization were created to serve the needs of its citizens and perpetuate their way of life. These organizations transmit and safeguard the values of the culture from which they arise. As a civilization grows and the scale of its operation increases, the people rely more and more on these institutions, which bind an ever-expanding population together and ensure their well-being. Conservatives naturally seek to defend and preserve these institutions....

Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) drew attention at a fiery congressional hearing on Tuesday when he pressed FBI Director Christopher Wray on the agency's alleged warrantless surveillance of the American people. Lee blasted Wray over the FBI's conduct regarding its searches, even suggesting he had no regard for the Fourth Amendment of the US Constitution. "FBI and other agencies searched Americans' communications over 200,000 times, only 16 of which were evidence of the crime that returned information," Lee said at the beginning of his question pertaining to searches on American citizens. "Were the three related batch queries consisting of over 23,000...

Congressional lawmakers released an interim report Monday titled, "The FBI's Breach of Religious Freedom: The Weaponization of Law Enforcement Against Catholic Americans," providing a glimpse into the lengths the FBI has gone to cast those with conservative religious beliefs as threats apparently requiring state surveillance and "mitigation." The new report from the House Judiciary Committee and its Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government indicates the FBI: "abused its counterterrorism tools to target Catholic Americans as potential domestic terrorists"; "relied on at least one undercover agent to develop its assessment"; "proposed developing sources among the Catholic clergy and...

Migrant encounters at the southern border hit the highest total for a single day ever recorded on Tuesday.

Massie says: - AIPAC spent $100k on advertising in his district on Fox News and local conservative talk radio in the last few weeks. - They're actively trying to recruit a primary challenger despite the fact that he tends to win his primaries and election easily. - They're using church pastors to lobby him or something. - Support for Israel is not a top 5 issue or motivating factor among the voters in his district. - He thinks they wont beat him and they're wasting money.

Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage. Galatians 5:1 The latest name they are calling patriots is Christian Nationalists which the National Socialist Party claims is the new term for Nazis. These are the new term for Domestic Terrorists which gives the Alphabet Agencies the right to spy and jail in the name of national security. These radical Christian Nationalist are being vilified the same way they have dehumanized the Tea Party, the Deplorables, and of course MAGA supporters. You are not an American if...
