For decades, the deplorable Anglican denomination has been drifting towards damnation, abandoning all biblical fidelity and proving time and time again millions of members are not the least bit committed to upholding the biblical teachings. Instead, they’ve adopted the worst excesses of the woke movement in a pathetic and desperate attempt at relevancy, and it shows. From voting to bless same-sex civil “marriages” to praising the Hindus for celebrating their pagan holiday’ Diwali’ and wishing them well on their week of unrestrained idol worship, they are as corrupt as they come. Much of the move towards the acceptance of homosexuality...

The Damnable Nonsense of the Synod on Synodality’s Final DocumentIn the November 21, 1963 entry in his My Journal of the Council, Yves Congar wrote the following in all caps: “I SEE THAT THERE IS A PROFOUND AMBIGUITY UNDERLYING THE SAME WORD “ECUMENISM,” BETWEEN THOSE WHO SEE ONLY REUNION WITH THE CHURCH (FAVORED BY CHARITY) AND THOSE WHO SEE SOMETHING QUITE NEW AHEAD OF ALL OF US, THAT CALLS FOR A PROFOUND REFORM.” Congar counted himself among those in this latter group — he saw the need for profound reform, as he emphasized in the 1967 preface to the revised...

"It’s a forward operating base for long-range bombers, and a port for ships, so that navy ships can sally forth from there," said Peter Layton, a defense and aviation expert at the Griffith Asia Institute in Australia.

Republican vice presidential nominee J.D. Vance caused a full blown meltdown at CNN over the weekend, frequently triggering longtime network host Jake Tapper into emotional outbursts. At one point in the interview, Tapper pointed to thoroughly debunked accusations from generals Mark Milley and John Kelly, both of whom have referred to the former president as a “fascist.” Accusations from Milley, who conspired with the Chinese government to “warn” them about Trump, and Kelly, who claimed Trump praised Hitler even though he continued to work for “Hitler” until he was fired, have been refuted by dozens of sources, including senior White...

Former President Donald Trump has repeatedly referred to CNN anchor Anderson Cooper with a woman’s first name in recent days as the Republican presidential nominee focuses his closing message on a hypermasculine appeal to men. On a Friday morning post on Trump’s social media site Truth Social, the former president referred to one of the most prominent openly gay journalists in the U.S. as “Allison Cooper.” […] In referring to Cooper with a woman’s name, Trump appeared to turn to a stereotype heterosexual people have long deployed against gay men. Such rhetoric evokes the trope of gay men as effeminate...

Oakland, birthplace of Democratic nominee Kamala Harris and the city where she launched her ill-fated presidential campaign in 2019, now resembles a post-apocalyptic nightmare, its streets piled high with trash, burned-out vehicles and homeless encampments. Driving through its streets is a surreal and potentially dangerous experience. Many businesses have closed down and are boarded up. Those still operating are covered in graffiti, even on their windows, and many refuse to allow customers inside for fear of being robbed. Critics of Ms Harris, who began her legal career as a prosecutor in Oakland, across the Bay Bridge from San Francisco, argue...

You tube link again: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YxeIqTbQRnk&t=4s This is a 3 minute video that proves beyond any doubt that Kamala Harris is a deranged and dangerous person. Not only should she not be president, she should not even babysit your plants. She went after parents of "truant" children, and she found it all most amusing. Ruining people's lives is a big fat joke to her. If you hang on to the end you'll see her main motivation was to get the $$ to the schools, not to ensure the education of children. Instanpundit had this posted yesterday, my jaw literally dropped watching...

It's a bold strategy, Cotton, let's see if it pays off.The Obamas certainly seem to have a particular message that they want to vent in the final days of the campaign. Barack Obama scolded black men for being misogynist in their lack of enthusiasm for Kamala Harris two weeks ago. This weekend, Michelle Obama scolded women for allowing themselves to be oppressed by their MAGA menfolk. The closing pitch from both Harris surrogates puts younger men squarely in the role of villainDoesn't that seem a little risky, considering the circumstances?Brian Stelter @brianstelter · Follow "To the women listening: We have...

Mariel Garza, the editorials editor, resigned in protest, saying "I want to make it clear that I am not okay with us being silent. We're a very liberal paper.

According to officials, 28-year-old Colton Bush had an active Domestic Violence Protective Order that prohibited him from having any contact with the woman, but on the evening of Sunday, October 8th he called his ex more than two dozen times while sending her dozens of text messages as well.

A controversial former Roman Catholic archbishop who was excommunicated earlier this year has told American Catholics there is “no question” they have to vote for former President Donald Trump — because Vice President Kamala Harris is “an infernal monster who obeys Satan.” Carlo Maria Vigano, who served as the Vatican’s ambassador to the US from 2011 until 2016, penned a fiery open letter to American Catholics in which he said this November they must “choose between two radically opposed ways of conceiving the government of your Nation.” “The choice is between a conservative President, who is paying with his very...

Navarro, who is married to a U.S. citizen, secured U.S. citizenship herself last year. She is excited to...

GOP veep pick JD Vance on Sunday went head to head with CNN host Jake Tapper over former President Donald Trump’s rhetoric and the fact that some former top aides have called him a “fascist.” “State of the Union’s” Tapper came out of the gate grilling Vance on Trump’s remarks about an “enemy from within” and retired Gen. John Kelly’s suggestion that his onetime boss fits “into the general definition of fascist.” Vance, 40, in turn belittled Trump turncoats such as Kelly and former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) as warmongers, which led to Tapper, 55, to drill down on the...
