Marty: It is painfully obvious why the bankers always tried to have the government silence you. Every aspect of what you forecast eventually unfolds, turning this random walk theory into propaganda. Bloomberg has reported that French corporate rates are now below government. The shift from Public to Private is right before our eyes. Thank you for a fantastic WEC. I loved your passion for saving the country if they listen. I also want to enroll my children in your gift to society, a WEC for the next generation. It’s just brilliant. JD COMMENT #2: Hi Martin, As you predicted, corporate...

The death of Peanut, a squirrel euthanized after being seized by New York state authorities over rabies fears, was discussed by Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch during a dinner hosted by the Federalist Society on Thursday. Addressing the audience about what he perceives as government overreach, Gorsuch commented: "I've just seen too many cases like that. You have just the other day, some of you might have seen one in the newspaper, if the newspapers are to be believed." To laughter from attendees Gorsuch added: "Yes, I'm speaking of Peanut the squirrel." Peanut's death became a rallying point for conservatives...

Reactions have come fast and hard following Kash Patel's nomination to lead the FBI. Donald Trump made the selection amid years of corruption and abuse within the nation's top law enforcement agency, citing Patel's role in uncovering the Russian collusion hoax. To be sure, though, his resume extends much further, having held numerous high-level positions in the Pentagon, DOJ, and NSC. Anyone claiming he's not "qualified" is simply not telling the truth. Still, some are trying to make that case by sharing a quote from Bill Barr's 2022 tell-all book in which he trashed Patel as having "virtually no experience...

Outgoing National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan denied reports that the Biden administration is considering returning nuclear weapons to Ukraine, after the country relinquished its stockpile three decades ago after the fall of the Soviet Union. Last month, the New York Times reported that several anonymous officials floated the idea of Ukraine becoming a nuclear power again as a deterrent against its Russian invaders. “That is not under consideration. No,” Sullivan told ABC News’ “This Week” on Sunday when asked about the report. “What we are doing is surging various conventional capacities to Ukraine so that they can effectively defend themselves...

Ellen DeGeneres’s U.K. Home Floods After Fleeing From Trump: Her 2 Girlfriends Died In Car Crashes

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Officials within the FBI have warned that naming Kash Patel director of the Bureau could seriously undermine the agency's work on not releasing the Epstein client list. For years, the FBI has poured massive amounts of resources into not releasing the Epstein list, the Nashville shooter manifesto, the JFK files, and results the Las Vegas shooter investigation, all of which could be undone by Patel's nomination. "We have done such incredible work not releasing the names of sex-trafficking pedophiles," said a senior official on condition of anonymity. "All of that could come crashing down. Next thing you...

The National Institutes of Health, the world’s leading public funder of biomedical research, has an enviable track record. Research supported by the agency has led more than 100 Nobel Prizes and has supported more than 99 percent of the drugs approved by federal regulators from 2010 to 2019.No surprise, then, that the agency has been called “the crown jewel of the federal government.” But come January, when President-elect Donald J. Trump and congressional Republicans take charge, the N.I.H. may face a reckoning.Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., the new administration’s selection for secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services, which...

The incoming Trump administration can return the department to its core mission.Between Eric Holder’s soft-on-crime memo, James Comey’s election meddling, and Jack Smith’s incessant lawfare, the United States Department of Justice has spent much of the last two decades in the proverbial wilderness. The incoming Trump administration has the opportunity and incentive to reshape DOJ. Here are five steps it can take to restore a department in desperate need of change. Row the boat or get thrown overboard. It’s time for line federal prosecutors—Assistant United States Attorneys—to get back to work. In 2010, federal prosecutors brought 68,591 new federal criminal...

An MSNBC panel discussion on Saturday about President-elect Donald Trump’s choice of Kash Patel to lead the FBI went absolutely off the rails. Network contributor Hayes Brown claimed that his running the agency would be like if it was handed to a cross between Alex Jones and J. Edgar Hoover. “Kash Patel as FBI director would be like if you crossed Alex Jones with J. Edgar Hoover in terms of just how much he would want to ignore precedent and the constraints that have been put on the FBI over the years,” Brown claimed. The unhinged panelist continued, “With all...

PHOENIX -- Reyna Montoya was 10 when she and her family fled violence in Tijuana and illegally immigrated to the U.S. Growing up in Arizona, she worried even a minor traffic violation could lead to her deportation. She didn't feel relief until 11 years later in 2012, when she received a letter confirming she had been accepted to a new program for immigrants who came to the country illegally as children. “All of the sudden, all these possibilities opened up,” Montoya said, fighting back tears. The Obama-era Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program granted her and hundreds of thousands of...

Trump-hating Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe accidentally endorsed Kash Patel for FBI Director in a CNN appearance Saturday night, saying his nomination is “terrible” for those who are currently at the Bureau. .... Snip.... President Trump announced Patel’s nomination Saturday evening in a Truth Social post, saying, “This FBI will end the growing crime epidemic in America, dismantle the migrant criminal gangs, and stop the evil scourge of human and drug trafficking across the Border.” In his leftist media rant aimed at discrediting Patel, McCabe said the nomination "can only possibly be a plan to disrupt, to dismantle, to...

The bromance between George Clooney and Barack Obama is reportedly on the rocks, with the Hollywood star said to be “furious” with Obama for setting him up as the “patsy” to end President Joe Biden’s career and then absorb the blowback following Kamala Harris’ election defeat. “George is furious with Obama for disappearing after the election disaster and leaving him holding the bag for pushing the plan with his Hollywood pals,” an unnamed entertainment industry source told Radaronline.

In Proverbs 4:20-22 it says something very powerful about God's word that people need to understand. It says, My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. 21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. 22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh. They are life which has to do with revive, give life to, quicken, restore to life. That's wonderful by itself, but they are also health which means medicine, healing, remedy, and cure and that's to all your flesh....

The White House has finally confirmed that the US will assist Ukraine with ATACMs launches deep into Russia - according to Sputnik. Indeed, there have been a number of attacks on Kursk using ATACMs this week. So, the Oreshnik warning fell on deaf ears and Russia has already begun to retaliate by destroying stocks of these missiles along with large numbers of NATO personnel (see Russian Missile/Drone Attacks below). Commentators have been speculating about Russia’s response in the event that the ATACMs/Stormshadow attacks continue - which is likely. Will Russia take out the Ukrainian grid, will it deploy another Oreshnik...

Explanation: What color is the universe? More precisely, if the entire sky were smeared out, what color would the final mix be? This whimsical question came up when trying to determine what stars are commonplace in nearby galaxies. The answer, depicted here, is a conditionally perceived shade of beige. In computer parlance: #FFF8E7. To determine this, astronomers computationally averaged the light emitted by one of the larger samples of galaxies analyzed: the 200,000 galaxies of the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey. The resulting cosmic spectrum has some emission in all parts of the electromagnetic spectrum, but a single perceived composite color....
