Brits are clamouring to sign up after an offer from Vladimir Putin to leave the "woke West" and move to Russia to embrace its "traditional values," the Kremlin has claimed. According to reports from Moscow, 17 people from Scotland have been in touch with the Russian Embassy to enquire about Putin's "fast-track residence permits". It was after the Russian dictator amended immigration laws to tempt more Westerners to come to his country. Putin has effectively said westerners would be seeking asylum from wokeism in Russia as he was offering "humanitarian aid" to people "who share traditional Russian spiritual and moral...

“Now to Him who is able to do exceeding abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us . . .” (Ephesians 3:20). Through the Holy Spirit, God gives His children all the spiritual power they will ever need to live the Christian life. It’s a joy to know that spiritual gifts are not like toys whose packages say “batteries required.” What the Spirit provides is not dependent on perishable batteries for power. Instead, when the Spirit secures our new life in Christ, He also empowers and strengthens us with every spiritual resource...

"Shark Tank" star Kevin O'Leary isn't known to mince words, and his take on workers splurging on their daily cups of coffee and work lunches was no exception. "Stop buying coffee for $5.50. You got to work and spend $15 on a sandwich – what are you, an idiot?" O'Leary, also known as Mr. Wonderful, said in a financial advice clip shared on Instagram last week.

1. Harris faces first test when a cop is killed The shooting of a police officer on a poorly lit street in San Francisco in 2004 would haunt Harris for decades. Officer Isaac Espinoza and his partner were in plainclothes when they approached a man in their unmarked vehicle on April 10. Espinoza, 29, stepped out and flashed a light at David Hill, according to accounts of trial testimony. Hill fired several rounds from an AK-47. Two struck Espinoza, killing him. Espinoza’s partner was injured, and Hill was accused of first-degree murder, along with other charges. The newly elected DA,...

LONDON, Ky. — Dozens of law enforcement officers are combing through the rugged terrain of southeastern Kentucky for a third day Monday as they search for the man suspected of shooting of nine vehicles and wounding five people on a busy interstate. When asked by reporters what makes this terrain so rough, Acciardo said the area off of I-75 where the shooting occurred is one of the most remote locations in The Commonwealth. "That exit along I-75 is probably the most remote throughout Kentucky," he said. "It's wooded, it's heavily wooded. It's got hills, it's got rocks. There's one business...

I don't know where you all were hiding during the Trump Administration. For four years, conservatives had front row seats on C-Span as Kamala Harris in hearing after Senate committee hearing excoriated every single one of President Trump's nominees for federal office. Harris was brutal, rude, and discourteous, to say the least, treating every Trump nominee as though they were criminals. But she was never once reprimanded by any of her peers for her atrocious "prosecutorial" behavior. Fast forward to all of the ridiculous prognostications by alternate media and conservative bloggers showing up on this site in 2024 as to...

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., suggested that “30%” of Republican voters will never vote for Democrats because of their racism, sexism and homophobia. Speaking at the 2024 Texas Tribune Festival on Saturday, Pelosi was pressed by podcast host Kara Swisher on why the presidential race between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Trump is so close. “There are people who will never be, shall we say, inclined to support Democrats because of—they just have a different orientation toward women, people of color, LGBTQ, you know, they just are not ever going to be there,” Pelosi said. “So, say...

The American Journal of Gastroenterology has published a new guideline on the treatment of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. H. pylori is a bacterium that infects over half the people in the world, though most are asymptomatic. It can cause dyspepsia, peptic ulcer disease and gastric cancer. This latest clinical practice guideline notes that its prevalence in North America is decreasing, but it still infects 30-40% of the population. A previous guideline was published in 2017. It had maintained the recommendation of a proton pump inhibitor-clarithromycin triple therapy as the primary treatment option. In the new guideline, the number one...

Anyone who’s ever looked deeply into the well of human sexual depravity will recognize that all deviance is measured against the standard of true normalcy: monogamous binary heterosexuality. It is a universal human norm, known in Christendom as the One-Flesh Paradigm, based on Genesis 1:27 and 2:24. Faithful Jews and Christians adhere to this standard, or at least aspire to do so. The sinfulness/harmfulness of any given sexual act, inclination or relationship is judged by God and His law based upon its degree of its deviance from the standard. The acts, inclinations and relationships most similar to the standard are...

A study demonstrates in animal models how daily administration of cannabidiol (CBD), a substance obtained from the cannabis plant, extends lifespan and improves symptoms associated with Leigh syndrome. This severe mitochondrial disease affecting children is characterized by a progressive decline in cognitive and motor functions and premature death. The research group also demonstrated in both mice and fibroblasts from children with the disease that CBD improves cellular function. Researchers demonstrated that daily administration of CBD is a promising treatment option. Through its multiple actions, it provides antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anticonvulsant effects, which improve the symptomatology and help recover cell functions...

A study addresses: Why is aging the biggest risk factor for cancer? The study reveals how an aging immune system spurs tumor growth, offering new insights into cancer prevention and treatment. The research team found that anakinra, a drug typically used for inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, can be repurposed to block harmful signals between early lung cancer lesions and the bone marrow. This is critical, say the investigators, because as the immune system ages, it creates harmful inflammation that can drive cancer development. "We found that by blocking specific inflammatory pathways, especially those involving molecules called interleukin-1⍺ (IL-1⍺)...

Episode Summary: In this episode, Keith Graves, a retired police officer with over 30 years of experience and an expert in drug recognition, discusses his observations about Vice President Kamala Harris.

The episode delves into topics including: Recognizing signs of drug impairment...

The Michigan Supreme Court ruled Monday that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will remain on the battleground state's presidential ballot in November, reversing a ruling from a lower court that had agreed to remove him last week. The high court's majority wrote in its order that Kennedy, who ended his independent White House bid last month and endorsed former President Donald Trump, did not point to a specific “source of law” that called on the state to take him off the ballot. As a third-party presidential candidate, Kennedy had fought to secure ballot access in the key swing state, but sought...
