If you come for the king, you had best be careful not to miss. Donald Trump may not be a monarch, except in the eyes of his more venomous detractors, but his enemies have nonetheless ignored this sage wisdom. Sadly, the crusade to “get Trump” has also been to the misfortune of the country at large. Ever since Donald Trump walked down the escalator, his enemies, whether they call themselves liberals, moderates or conservatives, have shown a remarkable unwillingness to meet him on the one battlefield that features most prominently in their discourse: that of democracy. Instead, they have sought...

New Zealand is scrapping a scheme to price gas emissions from livestock — squelching a so-called burp and fart tax initiated under the previous left-wing government led by now departed authoritarian Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern. New legislation will be introduced to parliament this month by the ruling conservative coalition to remove the agriculture sector from a new emissions pricing plan, thus responding to farmer pressure that the plan would make their business unprofitable. “The government is committed to meeting our climate change obligations without shutting down Kiwi farms,” said Agriculture Minister Todd McClay.

Too much debt should be the theme song for the US! Both for consumers and the Feral government (not a typo!) Consumer credit increased by +$6.403 billion in April, much softer than consensus estimate of +$10 billion … more notable, however, was March data, given initial read of +$6.274 billion was revised down to -$1.099 billion. Not to mention $13 trillion in mortgage debt (1-4 unit housing), but at least that is backed by property. Unlike The Feral government who borrows/prints with only a promise. Consumer Debt Hits $17.69 TRILLION. US national debt stands at $34.8+ trillion. And growing awfully...

CLEVELAND — The suspect accused of killing a 3-year-old boy outside a grocery store in North Olmsted told police three months ago that she had killed a woman in California, and she said she would kill again, according to court records. However, Bionca Ellis remained free to roam the streets and the country. Also, traveling to Florida. The Fox 8 I-TEAM uncovered chilling information about Ellis, who is accused of stabbing and killing 3-year-old Julian Wood on June 3. North Olmsted Police have said Ellis attacked the child and his mother in the Giant Eagle parking lot. Julian’s mother survived....

I’m old enough to remember a time when there were serious environmental concerns with internal combustion engine vehicles. NOx and SOx emissions caused a thick layer of brown smog in the atmosphere during calm weather spells in summer and winter; and a layer of black soot would cover the snow along the roadside in the winter. But gradually that all got cleaned up. Today the bona fide serious environmental concerns about internal combustion engines are far in the past. But the war to eliminate them — supposedly on environmental grounds — is just ramping up. The Biden Administration is all...

The King County, Washington, Prosecuting Attorney's Office has charged a man with second-degree murder and assault, both felony counts, for allegedly shooting a teen he thought was holding a gun and who he believed was about to rob a sporting goods store. Aaron Brown Myers, 51, told police he believed the 17-year-old victim had a gun and was going to rob a Big 5 Sporting Goods store in the Seattle suburb of Renton last Wednesday as the teen headed toward the retailer with two others, according to court documents filed by the prosecutor, Leesa Manion. The boy was holding an...

Attorney General Merrick Garland called attacks on the U.S. Department of Justice "dangerous for our democracy" on Tuesday as the GOP-led House prepares to hold him in contempt of Congress. "Continued unfounded attacks against the Justice Department's employees are dangerous for people's safety. They are dangerous for our democracy. This must stop," Garland wrote in a Washington Post op-ed. Garland has refused to turn over an audio recording of President Biden's interview with special counsel Robert Hur for the investigation into Biden's handling of classified documents. This prompted House Republicans to hold him in contempt.

A woman is accused of killing a 3-year-old boy in a grocery store parking lot in Cleveland. She smirked in court. She stabbed and wounded the mother. Bianca Ellis The 32-year-old named Bionca Ellis was seen stalking 3-year-old Julian Wood and his mother before killing the boy with a knife. When the arraignment hearing began, Ellis refused to answer questions from the judge and was caught smirking. After answering “no” to almost every judge’s questions, Ellis finally pleaded not guilty to the charges. Her bond is $5 million. She deserves the death penalty. Ellis is accused of taking a knife...

...Though Wade isn’t as active in the entertainment industry as his wife Gabrielle Union, he has been an executive producer on multiple projects. And one work he was associated with has finally received recognition. ‘The Dads’ won a Daytime Emmy Award at the 51st Daytime Emmy Awards held in Los Angeles. Wade posted the celebratory photos... ...The movie is available on Netflix and the description on the streaming platform states, “On a fishing trip with Matthew Shepard’s father, five disparate dads discuss their love, hopes and fears for their trans kids.” Some of the main cast members of the

We cannot afford to be complacent. The left is not going to hand us this election or even allow for a fair process to unfold. They are preparing for an all-out battle, and so must we. Those of us on the right should have a very honest conversation about the next five months, our elections in America and what to expect. Let’s start with the first item of business: the Stalinistic Star Chamber in NYC just concluded with Trump being found “guilty” on 34 counts, more counts than most mass murderers get. That should be a massive wake-up call for...

What happens when almost 2,000 teenagers show up to a quiet hamlet in New York with shotguns in tow? A good time is had by all. The 2024 New York State High School Clay Target League State Tournament took place at the Bridgeport Rod & Gun Club in Bridgeport, New York this past weekend, with thousands of teens participating from most parts of the state. The five boroughs were woefully underrepresented, thanks in large part to the anti-gun ideology that's so entrenched in the Big Apple, but students from more than 130 high schools were on hand as the targets...

Most Black adults say the prison (74%), political (67%) and economic (65%) systems in the U.S., among others, are designed to hold Black people back, according to a new Pew Research Center survey in September 2023. For example, 82% of Black adults say they have heard the following racial conspiracy theory about the prison system: Black people are more likely than White people to be incarcerated because prisons want to make money on the backs of Black people. Many Black adults (74%) say this racial conspiracy theory is true and happening in the U.S. today. For this report, we surveyed...

“And Daniel continued until the first year of Cyrus the king” (Daniel 1:21). People of integrity are people of significant spiritual influence. When King Nebuchadnezzar took Daniel as one of his personal servants, it was just the beginning of a ministry that would last for seventy years. Daniel 2:48 records that soon afterward “the king promoted Daniel and gave him many great gifts, and he made him ruler over the whole province of Babylon and chief prefect over all the wise men of Babylon.” At Daniel’s request, the king also appointed Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego to positions of authority, thereby...

Republican Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin said Monday on Fox News how his state could be in “play” for former President Donald Trump come this November, calling out the top issues for voters within the state. Youngkin appeared on “Hannity” to discuss recent polling from the typically blue state which showed President Joe Biden in a tight race with the former president. Fox host Sean Hannity questioned the governor on the new data, asking if the state could possibly be in “play” for Trump based on the data being shown.

In a stunning blow to the Biden administration, the widely respected statistical analysis website 538 has reported that President Joe Biden’s approval rating has plummeted to an all-time low of 37%. This alarming statistic comes at a time when the Biden administration is grappling with a range of challenges, including the ongoing border crisis, rising inflation, and the aftermath of the chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan. The 538 poll, which is considered one of the most reliable and accurate sources of political data, has sent shockwaves through the political landscape. The poll’s findings indicate that a significant majority of Americans disapprove...

We all have a high calling from the Lord. At some stage of our lives, he sets before us a preordained plan we are to fulfill. God promises that if we act in faith, he will bring that plan to completion. However, this is not always easy. As everyone who has walked with Jesus for any length of time knows, following his calling means we will encounter obstacles. One of the most common obstacles is the skeptic’s voice. As we seek to cross the Jordan River into the Promised Land, we will hear every kind of voice telling us not...

Biden’s talk of Our Democracy™ is a smokescreen. He and the broader left have no faith in the electorate, voting, or majority rule, as well as absolute hatred for at least a plurality of voters. In business, they say the customer is always right. This was long true in politics too. No one dared to attack voters, even when they supported an opponent. The voters were all Americans who had a right to their own opinions. Those on the margins were always in play. This was one of the salutary customs of American political life. Such respect for the voters...

The Second Amendment case of Morin v Lyver, granted certiorari, vacated, and remanded back to the First Circuit, has been decided in favor of the plaintiff, Alfred Morin.In June of 2022, the Supreme Court published a clarification of how the Second Amendment should be treated by the Courts in the Bruen decision. Bruen gave clear guidance on how Heller should be applied. This was necessary because the Circuit courts had created a complicated two-step process that was used to sidestep the Heller decision. In Bruen, the court said the two-step process was one too many. The Court laid out a...
