The IDF struck over 250 terror targets in ground, aerial and naval operations across the Strip over the past 24 hours. Dozens of Hamas terrorists lost contact with the terror group's leadership, leaving them with no option but to lay down their weapons and surrender to Israeli forces in the Gaza Strip, Army Radio reported on Sunday morning. After images of stripped terrorists in Jabalya and Khan Yunis circulated on social media, reports emerged that the IDF is "identifying changes in Hamas leadership's conduct." A security source told Army Radio that Hamas's senior leaders, thought to have fled to Khan...

Pray For The Peace of JerusalemActs 22Paul Before the Sanhedrin 30 The commander wanted to find out exactly why Paul was being accused by the Jews. So the next day he released him and ordered the chief priests and all the members of the Sanhedrin to assemble. Then he brought Paul and had him stand before them. _______________________________________________________New International Version (NIV) Holy Bible, New International Version®, NIV® Copyright © 1973, 1978, 1984, 2011 by Biblica, Inc.® Used by permission.

Knowing one another’s dirty secrets is the glue that binds a government run by criminals. America is not meant to have a “ruling class.” The Declaration of Independence takes direct aim at an entrenched aristocracy by stating a “self-evident” truth that “all men are created equal.” People, of course, are not naturally equal. They are blessed with individual talents and carry through their lives individual burdens, but no person is born with a divine right to rule over others. On the contrary, through God’s gifts of life and liberty to each one of us, we are capable of governing ourselves....

Vivek Ramaswamy attended an X Spaces livestream with Elon Musk, Andrew Tate, Alex Jones, and others. It sounded like Ramaswamy was relieving himself in the bathroom, and forgot to turn his mic off. Around 100,000 listeners were tuned in at the time.

Joseph McCarthy is the most unjustly demonized individual in American history. In February 1950, McCarthy, a Republican senator from Wisconsin, launched a massive campaign against alleged Communists and Soviet agents working for, and perhaps spying on, the U.S. government. In Senate hearings stretching across much of the first half of the 1950s, he accused numerous U.S. government employees, including many in the State Department, of being Communists or even agents of Soviet Intelligence. He was bitterly opposed by powerful members of the Senate, by numerous high-ranking officials within both the Truman and Eisenhower administrations, and by the overwhelming preponderance of...

MILWAUKEE - A Milwaukee woman has been sentenced to one year of probation for pulling a gun inside a school. Khadijiha Hamilton, 29, pleaded guilty in October to possessing a firearm on school grounds. A misdemeanor weapon charge was dismissed as part of a plea deal. It happened May 10 at Rocketship Transformation Prep near 68th and Silver Spring. According to a criminal complaint, a teacher told police she saw a woman yelling about a fight in a hallway. The teacher then realized the woman was Hamilton. Another teacher said a woman was yelling that she was going to "beat...

And if Republicans think they can run from the hounding accusations, forget it. Democrats and their compliant media have given us a roadmap to their strategy for the 2024 presidential and congressional elections. The strategy is not subtle. Democrats and their media handlers have spoken of little but “January 6” for almost three years. Willa Cather once wrote that if you teach people a new word, they think they have learned a new fact. The left wants to make “January 6” such a “new fact — an accusation, a symbol, a belief system, a strategy, and much more. Politicians want...

The recent Supreme Court ruling on affirmative action forbids the use of race in college admissions. Yet North Carolina public universities are already finding ways to circumvent the spirit of the ruling, such as by using essay questions that ask students about challenges they have faced or to reflect on their identity. These prompts allow students to say, for example, “As a Black student … ,” which is indeed permissible under Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard; students are not forbidden from bringing up their race in their applications. These essay responses, as well as the personal interviews that are...

Trump had been scheduled to testify Monday as one of the final defense witnesses in a trial that has lasted two months and is entering its final week of testimony. Court officials also confirmed to Fox News that Trump has notified the court that he is not testifying.

The bursting of the tech and housing bubble is sending shockwaves through the markets, with ominous signs pointing to an impending economic downturn. San Francisco, a city synonymous with skyrocketing real estate prices, is witnessing a significant shift as condos are now priced under $1000 per square foot for the first time in eight years. This unsettling development comes alongside a series of WARN notices, indicating a rise in job cuts and economic uncertainty. According to reports from Goldman Sachs, the so-called “Magnificent 7” tech stocks—Microsoft ($MSFT), Apple ($AAPL), Google ($GOOGL), Meta ($META), Amazon ($AMZN), NVIDIA ($NVDA), and Tesla ($TSLA)—have...

Javier Milei, the new president of Argentina, has about-turned on his commitment to withdraw from the Paris climate agreement. Mr Milei, who was sworn into office on Sunday, had previously said he intended to rescind Argentina’s participation in the agreement after calling climate change a hoax. But the country’s new top climate diplomat, Marcia Levaggi, told Reuters on Sunday that Mr Milei’s government had sent her to head the Argentine delegation at the United Nations Cop28 climate talks underway in Dubai.

Half a century ago, George Orwell, writing on literary censorship, wrote that “unpopular ideas can be silenced, and inconvenient facts kept dark, without the need for any official ban.” That dynamic now broadly extends to an opaque network of government agencies and self-proclaimed anti-misinformation groups that have repressed online speech. There’s no official ban on discussing the efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines or criticizing American involvement in the Ukraine-Russia war, but editors and journalists have realized that writing on such topics can come at a cost. News publishers have been demonetized and shadow-banned for reporting dissenting views and the bureaucratic means...

"They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away. And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection. "But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience. "No man, when he hath lighted a candle,...

All that was missing was Rush Limbaugh's famous Al Gore Armageddon Clock! Jake Tapper has obviously bought into Al Gore's doomsday view of climate change. On CNN's State of the Union today, Tapper introduced Gore by saying: "The world's climate nears a breaking point."For alarmists like Gore, and followers like Tapper, that breaking point has always been right around the corner—but never manages to arrive. Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

A new Pew Research Center in-depth report, “Spirituality Among Americans,” revealed that “7 in 10 U.S. adults describe themselves as spiritual in some way, including 22% who are spiritual but not religious.” The 95-page report released on Thursday found that: 83% of all U.S. adults believe people have a soul or spirit in addition to their physical body. 81% say there is something spiritual beyond the natural world, even if we cannot see it. 74% say there are some things that science cannot possibly explain. 45% say they have had a sudden feeling of connection with something from beyond this...

This video is a presentation of material derived from Tyranny of the Left, books 1 and 2, by Finnbarr O’keefe. Review below:If you think the mania of the left is a modern phenomenon, then you need to read this book. This explosive study lays bare the sickness at the heart of the radical left. The hatred, the intolerance, the censorship, the iconoclasms, vandalism, looting and violence that have marred recent years are not aberrations. The left is behaving in the same wild manner that has defined its activism for centuries. Unless confronted, and stopped, it will only get worse. Much...
