🇺🇸Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem 🇮🇱(3/4/26)[Prayer]A New Study For A New Year: PersonalitiesGenesis 31:36-55 36 And Jacob was wroth, and chode with Laban: and Jacob answered and said to Laban, What is my trespass? what is my sin, that thou hast so hotly pursued after me? 37 Whereas thou hast searched all my stuff, what hast thou found of all thy household stuff? set it here before my brethren and thy brethren, that they may judge betwixt us both. 38 This twenty years have I been with thee; thy ewes and thy she goats have not cast their young,...

NEW YORK (AP) — The wealthy Alexander brothers used the same tactics of luring, drugging and humiliation to sexually assault numerous women and girls, bragging about their exploits in blog posts with titles that included “It’s not rape if,” a federal prosecutor told jurors Tuesday. snip... The allegations are corroborated by the “sheer number of victims who testified,” the prosecutor said — women who never have met each other and live different lives, but “have one horrific thing in common: they were raped by these men.” Far from hiding their activity, the brothers bragged about it in text messages, emailed...

RAIFORD, Fla. — Billy Leon Kearse, the Fort Pierce man convicted of shooting and killing a police sergeant 35 years ago, was declared dead at 6:24 p.m. He declined his last meal in the hours before his scheduled execution at Florida State Prison. The Florida Supreme Court officially denied his final appeal earlier the same day. Kearse was sentenced to death for the 1991 shooting death of 29-year-old Fort Pierce Police Sgt. Danny Parrish. WPTV has covered this case for decades, tracking it from sentencing to this moment. ... In his final words, Kearse asked the Parrish family for forgiveness,...

Democratic Representative and Texas Senate candidate Jasmine Crockett is already saying her election was rigged as voters are turned away due to confusion at the polls. You read that right. Crockett, a member of the party that will call you an “election denier” and a “threat to democracy,” is blaming “cheating” is happening in her race. Now, Jasmine Crockett is crying foul play. In a press conference earlier with House candidate Collin Allred, Crockett claimed that she is being cheated, while urging voters to “make sure that you go ahead and figure out where it is that you are supposed...

Luigi: The Musical will premiere in New York City this summer, mere miles from where Luigi Mangione allegedly assassinated the father of two children. The show is already a hit in far-left San Francisco. Prosecutors say Mangione gunned down UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in cold blood in December of 2024. The motive was to make a statement about the American health care system. “These parasites had it coming,” Mangione reportedly wrote on a note found on him during a police search. The political left immediately embraced the accused murderer as one of their own. CNN’s Kaitlan Collins promoted Mangione’s defense...

The MEK Is Not Pro-Western or Committee to Democracy; It Operates as a Cult and Fosters Anti-Americanism When Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini took power, he denied having any interest in personal power. Rather, he described himself as a figurehead for a coalition of Islamist and leftist groups opposed to the Iranian monarchy. “Personal desire, age, and my health do not allow me to personally have a role in running the country after the fall of the current system,” he told The Associated Press on November 7, 1978. He lied. As soon as Khomeini returned to Iran, he set upon purging his...

The Iranian-backed group Hezbollah has fired rockets from Lebanon into Israel for a second day while the Israeli military has sent troops into the south of the country, as Lebanon is dragged into the war between US, Israel and Iran. Israel has also carried out air strikes that have killed dozens of people, according to Lebanese health officials. On Monday, after the regional conflict spread to Lebanon, thousands of residents fled villages in the south and, in Beirut, displaced families gathered in the city's Martyrs' Square and on the promenade along the Mediterranean.

A submarine attack on an Iranian ship off the coast of Sri Lanka has left at least 101 people missing, one dead and 78 injured, sources in Sri Lanka's navy and defence ministry told Reuters on Wednesday. It was unclear who attacked the ship, which the sources said has now sunk.

France's president has joined Spain in condemning US and Israeli strikes on Iran, branding them illegal. In a televised address on Tuesday evening, Emmanuel Macron declared the attacks were 'outside the bounds of international law'. He is the second Western leader to question the legality of the conflict after Spain's Pedro Sanchez warned that strikes from the US and Israel risked bringing about a 'more uncertain and hostile international order'.

Keir Starmer has defied brutal rebukes from Donald Trump insisting the UK is 'not involved' with Iran strikes. The PM made his latest attempt to wash his hands of the US president's military campaign in a speech to Muslims breaking Ramadan fast last night. Sir Keir - who has been desperately trying to shore up Labour's left flank since the Greens inflicted an humiliating by-election defeat - also talked up his determination to get 'justice' for Gaza.

Jesus spoke in many parables before the masses using agrarian imagery and common motifs to illustrate profound truths. And these truths were only meant for those with eyes that would see and ears that could hear. In other words, Jesus spoke to all but intended for His followers to understand the hidden lessons behind the parable. Even then, He would need to expound upon them until the disciples understood their meaning. Out of 39 parables that Jesus taught, two were of the fig tree. One of them contained the barren fig tree as described in Luke 13:6-9. The vineyard owner...

Incumbent Sen. Blake Johnson (R-Corning) aimed to be Senate majority leader next session. Turns out, he won’t even be in the Senate, after losing the Republican primary in Senate District 21 to Rep. Jeremy Wooldridge (R-Marmaduke). Johnson had Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ endorsement and an incumbent advantage, but neither mattered much when the votes were counted. With 100% of the votes in, Wooldridge beat Johnson 62% to 38%, a margin of nearly 3,000 votes.

U.S. Rep. Christian Menefee holds a narrow lead over longtime Rep. Al Green in Tuesday's Democratic primary for Houston's 18th Congressional District, but possibly not avoiding a runoff, per preliminary votes. The big picture: If no candidate clears 50%, the race will head to a runoff — setting up a showdown between Menefee and Green. For Green, who was first elected in 2004, the stakes are steep after he decided to run in the 18th District when lawmakers redrew his old seat to tilt Republican. It also highlights the generational battles among older and younger members of the party. Menefee...

By a margin of two votes, North Carolina's most powerful politician is losing a primary election to his home county's sheriff. With all precincts reporting Tuesday night, Rockingham County Sheriff Sam Page had recorded 13,077 votes. Senator Phil Berger, R-Rockingham, had recorded 13,075 votes. If the race is within 1% — and this one certainly is — the losing candidate can request a recount. There are also outstanding provisional ballots and military and overseas ballots that could still be added to the total. "Every vote counts," Berger told assembled media after the results came in. "We will continue through the...

The Indianapolis Colts have taken the first step in ensuring that impending free agent quarterback Daniel Jones sticks around, placing the seldom-used transition tag on the veteran. The tag guarantees the Colts the right of first refusal for Jones, preserving the right to match any competing offer sheet he might sign with an interested club. The news comes ahead of Tuesday's deadline to assess franchise or transition tags on players who are scheduled to hit free agency next week. If Jones does not sign a competing offer sheet, he would earn a one-year guaranteed salary of $37.833 million. Colts general...
