This is the hill to die on... because it's the final hill. If we concede that others may redefine reality with their "identity," we lose everything. I've received criticism for going "off message." Well, your message sucks. We need to defend the real, or children suffer.

Former Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe revealed that several high-ranking FBI personnel are getting ready to flee the United States if Donald Trump takes back the White House in November.

“Together we can finish the job.” — “Joe Biden”. This is the most significant reality of the world picture now: the wishes of the manager class are going in one direction while the actual dynamics of economy and politics go in the opposite direction. The managers wish for their management of systems to become as centralized and top-down as possible; but the very systems they manage are breaking down and seeking to reorganize at smaller scale, distributed locally. The tension entailed is explosive. Forgive me for reiterating a basic principle driving this moment in history: everything organized at the gigantic...

"The first step is putting a stop to any new borrowing and working together to reduce the deficit. Our fiscal house is barreling down an unsustainable path and we must act fast before tomorrow's problems become today’s," said the head of the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget... The U.S. government is borrowing $4.9 billion each day on average, driving the deficit for the first 8 months of this current fiscal year to $1.2 trillion, according to the latest data from the Congressional Budget Office. "With little surprise, our economic challenges have continued to mount with our debt only four...

“There was a knock on the door. A voice said, ‘It’s the IDF. We’ve come to take you home.’” This is how former hostage Noa Argamani described her rescue from Hamas on the Sabbath — Saturday, June 8 — which also happened to be her father’s birthday. Israelis spent the weekend cheering her rescue, along with the rescues of three other former hostages — Almog Meir Jan, Andrey Kozlov, and Shlomi Ziv. All four, ranging in age from 22 to 41, were kidnapped from the Nova music festival on October 7, Hamas’s notorious day of atrocities. Israeli intelligence recently determined...

Savage reacts to the SHOCKING verdict delivered in New York against President Donald Trump. Savage warns that this day is a 9/11 event in America’s history. We have entered a new era and there may be no turning back now. He explains why this case has been rigged from the beginning, why NY DA Bragg should be on trial, and why the criminals are now running the nation. He then questions what can be done to save our nation and why it’s time to turn to God for salvation.

In 2020, the count dragged on for days after the election until Biden won. That can’t be allowed to happen again. The Trump era has seen a new election phenomenon: Modern-day American Bolsheviks in blue cities have been distorting local elections by counting votes well past election day. Fortunately, there are ways to combat this election distortion plague. Remember how the Democrat mantra was “every vote must be counted” rather than every legal vote being counted? In my August 1, 2023 essay, Beware the ‘Long Count’, I discussed the mechanics of this new phenomenon. With modern computer technology and high-speed...

WORLD — Authorities across the globe have forcefully condemned Liam Neeson for killing dozens of kindly human traffickers just to save one lousy hostage. "We are absolutely disgusted by this rampage of violence against innocent human traffickers trying to make a living," said U.S. Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre. "One measly little hostage is no excuse for Neeson's horrific actions." According to sources, Neeson began hunting down the human traffickers after they kidnapped his daughter to sell as a sex slave. "Terrorists violently taking his daughter to rape is simply no justification for violence," said British politician Jeremy Corbyn. "We called...

resident Joe Biden sparked concerns Monday night when he appeared to freeze for the better part of a minute before his speech became slurred past the point of comprehension during a lively Juneteenth celebration at the White House. During the event ahead of the national holiday next week, the Commander-in-Chief seemed to short-circuit as the rest of the crowd, including Vice President Kamala Harris and Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff, grooved along to the lively band. Philonise Floyd, brother of the late George Floyd, flanked Biden on his left and eventually noticed the concerning pause he was taking and wrapped his...

A team of researchers has discovered that a common anti-inflammatory drug, mesalamine, can replace the work of good bacteria in fighting the nasty fungus Candida albicans in the gut. C. albicans, or candida, is known to cause yeast infections. The researchers found that this fungus can't grow without an oxygen supply. Their study showed that the drug can maintain a low oxygen (hypoxia) environment that prevents fungal bloom in the gut. When the body's immunity goes down due to cancer or chemotherapy, the fungus may grow beyond the colon and spread throughout the body. In such cases, the patient develops...

A team of medical researchers has found further evidence that regular consumption of melatonin reduces an older person's chances of developing age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a disease that often leads to blindness. In their study, the group researched case histories of 200,000 older patients looking for an association between regular consumption of melatonin and the development of AMD. Prior research has shown that as they age, many people begin to experience degeneration of the macula, a central part of the retina. Currently, approximately 11 million people in the U.S. alone are experiencing vision loss due to AMD. Medical scientists have...

Dolly’s right that all should be treated with love and kindness, but when we refuse to label sin a sin, we’re doing more harm than good. Fifty years after her original rise to stardom, Dolly Parton has released her highest-charting album and is more beloved than ever before. Initially known for her songwriting skills and beauty, Parton has entered her golden years as a “secular American saint.” In a world where division is the default, she collects fans of every political stripe, refusing to denigrate anyone, and regularly proclaims, “I love everybody,” when asked how she does it. This response...

If Hamas had not taken Israeli hostages and hidden them among their civilian population, there would have been few to no deaths of civilians in Gaza during the heroic rescue mission on Saturday. There were no innocent deaths as the IDF rescued four Israeli hostages being held in two buildings - private homes of Gazans. The Gazans who held the hostages were killed. FAFO. The Gazans in the home that had three of the hostages were a doctor and his son, a journalist, plus the journalist's wife. They were not innocents, they were Hamas. As long as Gazans vote for...

It seems like Canada's very liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has been around forever. It seems longer when you have someone who is so insufferable. He's been in office since 2015, which I guess is a long time when you consider all the harm he's done to the country. If you think people hate Joe Biden, people in Canada may hate Trudeau even more:He has trailed in polls by double digits for nearly a year, and the outlook for the once popular prime minister is so grim that some old guard Liberals have been grumbling that maybe he should just...
