“‘When you give to the poor, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving will be in secret; and your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you’” (Matthew 6:3–4). From this and other Scripture, we can learn principles to guide us in God-honoring giving. First of all, genuine heart-giving is an investment with God. “Give, and it will be given to you. They will pour into your lap a good measure—pressed down, shaken together, and running over. For by your standard of measure it will be measured...

Open carry was observed and uncontroversial at the NRA Annual Meeting in Atlanta in 2025. It was a bit more common at the NRA Annual Meeting in Atlanta in 2017, as documented in AmmoLand News then. Georgia passed Constitutional Carry (permitless carry) in 2022. Permitless carry applies to all lawful weapons carriers, as defined in Georgia code 16-11-125.1.(2.1) “Lawful weapons carrier” means any person who is licensed or eligible for a license pursuant to Code Section 16-11-129 and who is not otherwise prohibited by law from possessing a weapon or long gun, any resident of any other state who would...

Karen Kingston is a biotech analyst and former Pfizer employee who is back with some grotesque news about what the US government knew about the CV19 bioweapon vax. They knew it was not safe at all, and the FDA also knew Pfizer committed fraud to get the CV19 injections approved. Kingston says, “This is the government’s words exactly: ‘The FDA was aware of the protocol violations.’ So, the FDA was aware of the fraud that was reported . . . before it granted emergency use authorization (EUA) for its vaccine. They were aware of the fraud. Second, the government said...

After an unprecedented on-air hissy fit last week over the forced exit of a longtime editor, 60 Minutes's Scott Pelley decided to go all in on the Trump-hate, using his on-air time to praise and promote Marc Elias, the architect of the Russia hoax scandal and probably the world's sleaziest lawyer. According to Breitbart News's Joel Pollak: CBS News’ 60 Minutes portrayed Democrat election lawyer Marc Elias as a victim of President Donald Trump’s supposed retaliation against law firms — without once mentioning Elias’s sordid background. CBS’ Scott Pelley portrayed Elias as a hero, the only lawyer brave enough to...

Portnoy's complaint began when a now-deleted Instagram account posted footage of a bottle service worker at Barstool Sansom Street holding up an illuminated sign that read 'F*** the Jews.' Portnoy immediately fired two waitresses and identified the two people allegedly responsible for ordering the sign - one being Temple University student Mo Khan.

A Republican poll obtained exclusively by the Houston Chronicle show Cornyn is down against Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton among likely GOP primary voters by 17 percentage points. A Democratic poll shows him down more than 20 percentage points. State Sen. Paul Bettencourt, R-Houston, said it’s time for someone to have a serious talk with Cornyn about whether he really wants to go through with another campaign that could quickly turn negative and costly. “If I was an incumbent senator with these types of polling numbers, I probably wouldn’t run because you can’t win,” Bettencourt said. Cornyn has said he's...

And the tantrum-throwing is epic. Is this scenario not exactly what Americans — and, for that matter, the entire world — have been witnessing in real time as Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) discover the malfeasance, fraud, and criminality of not the fictional housewife Irene, but the real live people who run our massive government institutions? To name only a few, there are the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the Pentagon, and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). All of these have been fleecing our country — with...

Billionaire investor Bill Ackman on Tuesday said Harvard University, one of the nation’s oldest and wealthiest, should not be entitled to taxpayer funds when the school wastes money on what he calls “administrative bloat.” Ackman, who earned undergraduate and business degrees from Harvard more than three decades ago, was speaking hours after the Trump administration said it was freezing future grants to Harvard. He also criticized the school’s investment policies, saying the Ivy League university is facing a financial crisis and that its $53 billion endowment is “poorly invested.” ... “They have lost all future grants, their tax exemptions are...

Republican Sen. John Kennedy of Louisiana told Fox Business host Larry Kudlow Tuesday he suspects China is cooking its books on economic growth. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on Tuesday told the House Appropriations Committee’s Subcommittee on Financial Services and General Government that the Trump administration has not talked with China about trade or negotiating an end to increased tariffs. During an appearance on “Kudlow,” the senator said he suspects China’s economy was “weak as rainwater.” “I’ll bet you a soda and a nice hat [that] China’s economy is not growing at more than 2%,” Kennedy said. “They say 5%, but...

Russia has called on the two countries to de-escalate and find a peaceful solution. “We are deeply concerned about the escalation of military confrontation between India and Pakistan following the terrorist attack near Pahalgam,” Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova said in an official statement Wednesday. “Russia strongly condemns acts of terrorism, opposes any manifestation of terrorism, and emphasizes the need to unite the entire international community to effectively combat this evil.” “We call on the parties involved to exercise restraint in order to prevent the further deterioration of the situation in the region.

I’ve always had a great interest in music. I enjoy almost all types of music, and music is a wonderful gift from God. The Bible is replete with references to music. In Genesis 4, we read about the first musician, “Jubal,” who was the fourth generation from Adam, in the lineage of Cain. Genesis 4:21 tells us that Jubal was “the father of all those who play the lyre and pipe.” And in Exodus, when God closed the Red Sea after the Israelites passed through it, Moses’ sister, Miriam led the Israelite women “with tambourines and dancing” as she sang....

WW International, formerly known as WeightWatchers, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on Tuesday in a bid to cut its debt after Ozempic and other hugely popular obesity drugs upended its business model. Shares of the company, which once boasted of media mogul Oprah Winfrey as one of its top shareholders, slumped 40% in extended trading after announcing plans to file for bankruptcy as part of a reorganization plan with a group of its lenders. WeightWatchers began as weekly weight-loss support group meeting with 400 attendees, and quickly turned into a worldwide phenomena with millions of members across the...

People are swapping Botox for hemorrhoid cream — and experts are begging them to stop. TikTok’s latest wave of unhinged beauty hacks comes with concern: dabbing hemorrhoid cream on under-eye bags to supposedly smooth and de-puff without ever stepping into a derm’s office. On the social media platform, women are claiming that Preparation H is a miracle fix for puffy eyes, saying that it supposedly tightens skin and mimics the effect of under-eye filler — an expensive non-surgical treatment used to reduce dark circles and hollowness by adding volume. But dermatologists are popping the puff-reducing bubble. New York City-based dermatologist...
