In recent weeks, the world has witnessed a defining moment in the Xi Jinping era—a moment when the full weight of China’s political and military machinery has turned inward. From sweeping purges within the People’s Liberation Army to the Communist Party’s latest five-year planning session, it is clear that Xi is tightening the reins of control across every lever of state and society. Xi Jinping is not merely the head of state; he is the state. As General Secretary of the Communist Party of China, President of the People’s Republic, and Chairman of the Central Military Commission, he holds the...

Then Clark said the quiet part out loud. “Shutdowns are terrible and, of course, there will be, you know, families that are going to suffer,” she said. “We take that responsibility very seriously. But it is one of the few leverage items we have. It is an inflection point in this budget process where we have tried to get the Republicans to meet with us and prioritize the American people,” Clark said. In a shocking admission earlier this month, Democrats said they won’t end the Schumer Shutdown until planes are falling out of the sky.

As everyone knows, many took to the streets in various American cities this last Saturday to protest President Trump and his policies. The theme was “No Kings,” as if Donald J. Trump were the king of America. Far from it. As Speaker of the House Mike Johnson noted, “If President Trump was a king, the government would be OPEN right now. If President Trump was a king, they would not have been able to engage in that free speech exercise.” Gary Bauer said that the funding for all these protests came from the usual suspects: “Multiple far-left organizations funded by...

The left has completed its masturbatory "No Kings" day exercise, once again failing to recognize that Kings would not allow such a spectacle.

They outright called for violence And murder Another protester assured that given the chance he'd kill Stephen Miller And the ultimatum was remove Trump...or else And just in case Trump is not "removed" they're teaching their kids to kill him instead. A schoolteacher mocked Charlie Kirk's death They...

You don’t erase a radical past. You rebrand it. Control isn’t always about silence. Sometimes it’s about agreement. When conservatives crave unity more than truth, deception becomes easy. A “common-sense” mask can hide the most dangerous ideology. Fetterman’s rebrand started in 2022. The campaign ends in the White House. ===================================================================== BRIEFING ... Senator John Fetterman isn’t a Dem with an identity crisis. He’s a psyop. Let’s get into it. You can see the entire blueprint if you just stop staring at the dirty hoodie long enough. Every piece of his history lines up like a case file: the Clinton-era AmeriCorps...

“‘This is Ireland, this is our country, get them out, get them f***ing out,’ roared a woman through a loudhailer.” So opens Conor Lally’s October 22 article in Ireland’s establishment newspaper, The Irish Times. His subject, a rowdy anti-immigration protest in Dublin County. Not until the 19th paragraph does Lally mention what triggered the protest, namely the arraignment of “an African man” for “the sexual assault on Monday of a 10-year-old Irish girl.” The first 18 paragraphs were dedicated to the “thuggery” of the protestors and fawning praise for the “well-drilled lines of gardaí.” The gardai—the Irish word for police—“quickly...

The succinct statement below aims to create common knowledge of the growing number of experts and public figures who oppose a rush to superintelligence.

Whenever the word "nations" is mentioned in the Bible, one should understand where God is coming from when He speaks of them. The Nations of the Earth were: - Conceived in a concerted, godless rebellion (Gen 11:1-9, Rev. 17:5, Acts 17:26). - Born (brought forth) in divine judgment (Gen 10, 11:1-9, Rev 17:5, Acts 17:26). - Reared (raised) in godless unbelief and ignorance (Acts 17:26 -30, Rom 1:18-32, Eph. 2:1-3,11,4:17). - Lived out in carelessness, depravity and violence (Matt 6:6, Acts 14:14-16, Rom 1:24-32, Eph. 2:11,4:17, 1 Thess. 4:5, 1 Peter 4:3, Rev 6:4-8, 13:1-10, 18:23-24). - Terminated in vanity,...
