Many people stated after the attempted assassination of Trump that He must be protected by God and therefore must be "God's Man" for America due to His intervention in Pennsylvania. Well, there is a Bible reference that could apply if you think there could be evidence that God has His hand on Trump.Let's look at God anointing His pick of men to serve Him in the Tabernacle of God. Leviticus 8:22-24 speaks of placing goat blood on the right ear, the right thumb, and the right big toe, of the person being consecrated. We all know Trump had goat's blood...

Pope Francis gave new meaning to the old term “Catholic guilt” on Wednesday when he said that refusing to aid the multitudes of migrants who are streaming into Europe was a “grave sin.” Refusing to become an open-borders globalist leftist takes its place among pride (well, that one is borderline these days, too), anger, lust, sloth, and the rest. Will Catholics who fought in earlier ages to preserve the cultural and spiritual heritage of Europe now get sentenced to hell retroactively for not opening their doors to the invaders? About that, the pontiff was mum, but if you don’t favor...

When some attending the Democrat Convention in Chicago found maggots and crickets in their breakfasts their first instinct was to call the FBI. The FBI is currently trying to figure out how this happened. Director Christopher Wray said "domestic right-wing terrorists, MAGA people are at the top of our suspect list. We are currently searching through Trump's recent speeches to try to ascertain what code words he used to instigate his followers to do the deed." Others suggested that protesters opposed to the Israeli invasion of Gaza that have been protesting outside the Democratic convention might be responsible. Maggots were...

In the 1920s, a term was coined that is very appropriate for what is taking place in America today: red fascism. It was a term that likely originated with an Italian anarchist, Luigi Fabbri, who wrote in 1922 that “‘red fascists’ is the name that has recently been given to those Bolshevik communists who are most inclined to espouse fascism’s methods for use against their adversaries.” This description and behavior of course should not come as a surprise to anyone. Socialism is intrinsic to both communism and fascism, as both are movements of the left with a massive, oppressive, and...

NEW HAVEN, Conn. (WTNH) — More than 100 community members rallied outside the New Haven County Courthouse Wednesday morning in support of the dozens of Yale University students and workers arrested by campus police during a pro-Palestinian protest in April.

A strong, capable, independent, girlboss of a woman that "don't need no man" has reportedly asked a man to accompany her on a job interview in case there are any hard questions. Tim Walz, running mate for Kamala Harris on her 2024 presidential campaign, didn't need any further explanation. "Yeah, okay," he sighed. "I knew what I was signing up for." According to sources, the pair prepped for the softball interview long into the night. Walz had hoped to prepare her enough that he wouldn't have to go, but reluctantly, he called it a night after she failed to answer...

Boeing’s satellite maker Millennium Space Systems will soon have a new CEO. Jason Kim, the executive who held the position for nearly four years, has departed the company, TechCrunch has learned. Boeing acquired Millennium Space Systems in 2018. Since that point, the company has scored mega-deals with the U.S. Department of Defense to build satellites to help warfighters track missiles and other threats. Millennium also successfully executed a “responsive space” mission for the U.S. Space Force; that mission, called Victus Nox, sought to establish a new record for the time it takes to put a defense payload into orbit. Millennium...

Saint Augustine, one of the greatest intellects in human history and a Catholic apologist par excellence, lived and proselytized during the twilight of the Roman Empire. As his life drew to a close, however, his homeland of Roman Numidia was overrun by an army of marauding Vandals--a barbaric host which had carved a swath through the enervated provinces of Gaul, Spain and Mauritania. By the time the Vandal armies reached Augustine's province of Numidia in about AD 430, the great bishop lay on his deathbed. His city of Hippo Regius was besieged and the remaining Roman forces under Count Boniface...

Free speech is dying in once-liberal democracies that are now ruled by unaccountable administrative bureaucracies. Reading the corporate media coverage of Telegram CEO Pavel Durov’s arrest in Paris this week, you’d think he was a Kremlin spy or an international terrorist, not the founder of a popular social media app with nearly a billion users.The charges against Durov — whom the media never fail to inform us was born in Russia — include “complicity in the distribution of child pornography and selling of drugs, money laundering, and a refusal to cooperate with law enforcement,” according to The New York Times....

Of the 1 million names removed, more than 6,500 were noncitizens and about 1,930 of them have a VOTER HISTORY, the governor’s office said. “The Secretary of State’s office is in the process of sending all 1,930 records to the Attorney General’s Office for investigation and potential legal action,” Governor Abbott signed House Bill 1243 into law last year, increasing the penalty for illegal voting, including voting by noncitizens, to a second-degree felony.”

KYIV (Reuters) -Ukraine's top diplomat said on Wednesday that the biggest problem faced by Kyiv as it battles Russia is that its allies are afraid of approving new policies to support Ukraine out of a fear of escalation.The remark by Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba came a day after Russia's foreign minister said the West was "playing with fire" by considering allowing Kyiv to strike deep into Russia and warned of the risks of World War Three."Ever since the beginning of the large-scale invasion, the biggest problem Ukraine has been facing is the domination of the concept of escalation in the...

Former President Donald Trump has overtaken Vice President Kamala Harris among independents, the latest weekly survey — taken after the Democratic National Convention (DNC) in Chicago, Illinois — from the Economist/YouGov found. The survey asked respondents, “In November 2024, who do you plan to vote for in the presidential election” and listed Trump, Harris, independent candidate Cornel West, and Green Party candidate Jill Stein as options. Notably, this survey was taken after independent Robert F. Kennedy Jr. dropped out of the race and endorsed Trump. Overall, Harris — whom many believe is at the end of the honeymoon period of...

According to a report in The Sofia Globe, an intact Thracian temple dated to the third century B.C. has been discovered in a mound in south-central Bulgaria, on the outskirts of the city of Plovdiv. The structure was built with stones and a mortar made of clay and sand when the city was known as Philippopolis, said Kostadin Kisyov of Plovdiv's Regional Archaeological Museum. Pottery and the bones of seven types of domestic animals thought to have been used in rituals were found inside the structure. A later Thracian Christian building and a medieval church dated to the twelfth and...

...misinformed and slanderous remarks of Kamala Harris and other Democratic politicians while interviewing a judicial nominee in 2020 who happened to be a faithful Catholic and a member of the Knights of Columbus. There are over 73 million Catholics in the United States.

Sir Keir Starmer has confirmed pensioners’ worst fears. There will be no U-turn on his decision to remove the winter fuel payment. He has said it is a choice he “has to make”, a decision he “didn’t want” to make. But this cannot be true. Be under no illusions, this is a cold, hard political calculation. Sir Keir is trying to dress up his political choices as “difficult decisions”, sheepishly blaming everyone but himself. He is trying to take the 10 million pensioners who will lose their annual payment for fools. Removing the winter fuel payment is something he cannot...

In 2019, Kamala said that there’s “no question I’m in favor” of banning fracking; in 2020, after becoming Biden’s VP nominee, she flip-flopped to say she wouldn’t ban fracking. And as soon as she took power, the Harris-Biden...
