Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem (2/5/25)[Prayer]Names and Titles of God the Holy Spirit (Prophet) 1 Timothy 4:1-5 4 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; 2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; 3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth. 4 For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be...

Fans have been concerned for Wendy Williams, and she received good news despite her conservatorship woes. The former host of The Wendy Williams Show was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia and primary progressive aphasia. It has forced the talk show superstar into a conversatorship. Williams was put on a conversatorship back in 2022 when she reportedly lost all her money. Wells Fargo and Williams began going back and forth after she asked for a look into her bank statements when she questioned some things her financial advisor did. Now, she is stuck in a battle. Williams did have success with her...

Governor Gavin Newsom is heading to the White House on Wednesday to ask President Donald Trump for federal money to address California’s wildfires, after state legislators passed $50 million to fund anti-Trump measures. Newsom himself agreed to the $50 million deal in mid-January, with fires still burning in the Los Angeles area, after complaining that Trump wanted to “politicize” the fires by talking about the state’s failed water policies and forestry. The spending came out of a special legislative session called by Newsom himself. The State Assembly passed the anti-Trump funding right away, and while the State Senate balked at...

The World Economic Forum has big plans to stifle the world’s freedom. But America stands in the way. The World Economic Forum (WEF), the self-anointed vanguard of the global elite, reconvened late in January in Davos, Switzerland. The agenda this year looked at the increasingly thorny question of free speech. The rhetoric soared to new heights after German chancellor Olaf Scholz said during a panel discussion, “Freedom of expression has its limits, especially when it’s right-wing.” Scholz took a jab at the role of X (previously Twitter) in amplifying some controversial voices. His remark was a direct shot at Elon...

For decades, fusion researchers struggled with neutron isotropy, a key indicator of scalable plasma stability. Zap Energy’s latest results show its FuZE device avoids the pitfalls of past Z pinch failures, generating isotropic neutrons that confirm thermal fusion is occurring. A Major Milestone for Zap’s Fusion Technology In physics, “isotropy” refers to a system where properties remain the same in all directions. In fusion research, neutron energy isotropy is a key measurement that assesses how evenly neutrons are emitted from a device. This uniformity is crucial — when fusion plasmas are isotropic, they indicate a stable, thermal plasma that can...

Maryland Gov. Wes Moore and the Maryland Transportation Authority (MDTA) unveiled the design for the new Francis Scott Key Bridge almost a year after it was hit by a cargo ship, causing it to collapse. "Today, we take an important step toward recovering from the tragic Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse that has affected not just Maryland's economy, but the nation's economy," said Gov. Moore. "While we mark the unveiling of the new bridge design, we continue to honor the six Marylanders who lost their lives while serving our state and their families who carry their legacy forward. Together, we...

The Kremlin, asked Wednesday about contacts with the administration of President Donald Trump over Ukraine, said that there have been contacts at the ministerial level and they have been intensifying recently. Russia welcomes Trump's view that drawing Ukraine towards the NATO military alliance was an issue of concern to Moscow, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said. -snip- "Suddenly, for the first time, President Trump, in one of his first speeches, criticizing the position of the administration of Biden on the Ukrainian crisis, bluntly said that one of the main mistakes was drawing Ukraine into NATO," Lavrov said. "For the first time...

Australia has banned DeepSeek from all government devices over concerns that the Chinese artificial intelligence startup poses security risks, the government said on Tuesday. The Secretary of the Department of Home Affairs issued a mandatory direction for all government entities to “prevent the use or installation of DeepSeek products, applications and web services and where found remove all existing instances of DeepSeek products, applications and web services from all Australian Government systems and devices,” the statement said. Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke said DeepSeek posed an “unacceptable risk” to government technology and the immediate ban was “to protect Australia’s national...

It has become increasingly obvious that DOGE is Gorbachev’s glasnost (openness) reprised. Glasnost soon led to perestroika (reform) and the Soviet Union croaked. DOGE will play a key role in dismantling the Deep State. We’ve lost count of how many decades former congressman Ron Paul has called for auditing the bankers’ plaything, the Federal Reserve System and its 400+ PhD economists. Or more recently, when senators Sanders and Grassley teamed to demand a Pentagon audit. Not only will DOGE audit the Fed and get to the bottom of the Pentagon’s missing trillions, but the entire federal leviathan is undergoing a...

A federal judge has blocked Donald Trump’s administration from forcing three incarcerated transgender women into men’s prisons and taking away their gender-affirming healthcare. The order on Tuesday from Washington, D.C. District Judge Royce Lambert – who was appointed by Ronald Reagan – temporarily strikes down part of Trump’s sweeping executive order on gender as a likely violation of the Eighth Amendment’s prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment, landing yet another court-ordered blow to his agenda. A pair of lawsuits filed by incarcerated trans women have accused the president of endangering their lives while stripping them of their healthcare through an...

Our founders intended for us to have a very small, very limited federal government. Instead, we have the largest and most bloated government in the entire history of the world. So we should all be glad that someone is finally attempting to get it under control. For far too long, ultra-powerful government agencies have been running around doing whatever they want and making our lives miserable in the process. Congress has been able to exercise very little control over these monstrosities, and their leaders had little fear of ever being held accountable for their actions. But thanks to Donald Trump...

On January 22, 2025, Democratic Governor Whitmer of Michigan signed HB No. 6145 into law as part of a package of bills. HB No. 6145 mandates the state destroy valuable assets as an ideological statement. The bill requires all parts of firearms that come into possession of the Michigan State Police to be destroyed instead of being sold and the money used for the public good.

The corrupt dictatorship gets a wake-up call.. In myth, post-apartheid South Africa became a land of unity, peace, and brotherly love. In reality, it became a corrupt racist dictatorship: a slow-motion Zimbabwe whose more gradual pace of self-destruction was only made possible by the vastly greater wealth that the corrupt Communist movement that took it over had to play with. In its greed for wealth, the ANC just starved dozens of miners to death and is plotting to seize the land of white farmers. The African National Congress presided over the destruction of South Africa’s economy and its transformation from...

The Kremlin confirmed Wednesday that Russian officials have been in contact with members of the Trump administration but did not say whether the discussions focused on ending the war in Ukraine. “There are indeed contacts between certain agencies, and they have intensified recently,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters. “I can’t share any further details.” Peskov also dismissed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s recently expressed willingness to negotiate peace directly with Russian President Vladimir Putin. “Readiness needs to be based on something — both readiness and willingness. It can’t be based on a legal ban preventing Zelensky from holding such talks,”...
