    Legacy media is doing what it does best – spread misinformation and confusion – in regard to Friday’s downing of a USAF F-15E Strike Eagle in western Iran. Legacy media is doing what it does best -- spread misinformation and confusion -- in regard to Friday’s downing of a USAF F-15E Strike Eagle in western Iran. According to the usual suspects, this means that America has lost “air supremacy” and marks the moment when the tide turns completely in Iran’s favor and, sweeping all before them, enables them to achieve absolute victory by Sunday. Monday at the latest. In truth,...

    Billy Hallowell trusts the biblical accounts of angels and demons as a Christian, but as an investigative reporter, he wasn’t ready to accept stories of spiritual beings influencing the modern world without digging into the evidence. He found plenty of credible sources and compelling testimonials during his research for “Investigating the Supernatural: Angels & Demons,” the second documentary in his series with filmmaker Jarrod Anderson for the Christian Broadcasting Network. “Even though I believed a lot of these things in my mind, I’m a natural skeptic,” said Mr. Hallowell, a columnist and digital host for The Washington Times. “When I...
  • Americans would be ‘up at night worrying’ if they knew the truth about alien life, Tennessee Rep. Tim Burchett says

    Burchett — a member of the House Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets — recalled that he was briefed two weeks ago “on an issue” about extraterrestrial life that “would have set the Earth” on fire and “unglued” the country if released. When Finnerty played a clip of former Rep. Matt Gaetz alleging knowledge of alien-human hybrid breeding programs, Burchett stopped short of directly addressing the explosive claims. “I’m still a member of Congress, so I can’t really comment too much on what Matt said,” Burchett told Finnerty. “Wait, seriously?” Finnerty slightly pushed back. “I’m being 100% serious,”...

This video is the most in-depth explanation of the world economic system, dollar hegemony and why we can’t reduce the deficit and why that won’t hurt the value of the dollar. It discusses the impact of American debt on the hollowing of industrial capacity and the impact on wages and lifestyle. We really can’t discuss...

    It varies a lot by nutrient, form, dose, and whether the person is deficient, but the short answer is: some synthetic vitamins/minerals are absorbed about as well as natural ones, while others are less well utilized unless the form is chosen carefully.pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih+2General ruleWater-soluble vitamins like vitamin C and many B vitamins are often absorbed well in synthetic form, and in human studies synthetic vitamin C has shown no meaningful difference from natural vitamin C at steady state.pmc.ncbi.nlm.nihMinerals can be absorbed anywhere from about 25% to 90%+, depending on the mineral and the chemical form; for example, calcium is often around...

    WASHINGTON — President Trump wants to make California’s Alcatraz Island into an active prison again — feared by criminals and impossible to escape. Trump’s budget to Congress on Friday includes a $152 million request to get the long-shuttered iconic lockup up and running again as a “state-of-the-art secure prison facility.”

    New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani made a Good Friday statement about sacrifice, fasting, and faith, but did not mention Jesus Christ by name, while Rep. Andy Ogles (R-TN) promoted legislation calling for the American flag to be flown at half-staff in recognition of Christ’s crucifixion. Mamdani wrote on X: Today, on Good Friday, we mark a day of sacrifice. Some New Yorkers will abstain from eating; others will spend hours without speaking. Faith, the Bible tells us, is belief in the things unseen. That belief is what will guide so many of our neighbors in solemn reflection and reverence....

    My Catholic Life! (YouTube) ^ | Saturday, April 4, 2026 | My Catholic Life!
    Though the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass was not offered yesterday, the faithful received Holy Communion during the commemoration of the Lord’s Passion. Today, however, the Church falls into profound silence. No liturgical services are celebrated during the day; the tabernacle remains empty, and the Church waits in expectant stillness for the joyful proclamation of the Resurrection. This silence invites us to enter more deeply into the mystery of Christ’s descent to the dead and to reflect on the unfathomable depths of His sacrifice. For those who attend daily Mass, this day often brings a sense of emptiness—a longing for...

    Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 5 April 2026 | John Semmens
    President Trump's suggestion that the US might withdraw from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) drew criticism from former Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky) and Sen. Chris Coons (D-Conn), both members of the Senate defense appropriations subcommittee, who asserted that "Americans are safer when NATO is strong and united. NATO troops fought and died in Afghanistan and Iraq alongside American forces." Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) and Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) pointed out that "NATO stood by America and came to our aid after the September 11, 2001 attacks. Remember, the obligation of NATO members is to aid each other...

  • Rising number of Americans refusing life-saving blood transfusions because they come from vaccinated donors

    04/03/2026 9:43:27 PM PDT · by algore · 138 replies
    Health researchers are sounding the alarm after noticing more people refusing life-saving blood transfusions because they come from vaccinated donors. In a study out of Vanderbilt University Medical Center, 15 patients or families of patients who needed blood transfusions rejected them because they requested blood from donors who were not vaccinated. The majority of patients were children or teenagers. The refusal led one patient to go into shock, another to develop anemia and others to have their surgeries delayed. Now, doctors involved say they fear more Americans, spurred by vaccine-suspicious health secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr, will follow. Over a...

    "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven" (Matt. 5:3). If you are poor in spirit, certain characteristics will mark your life. The Puritan writer Thomas Watson listed seven ways to determine if you are poor in spirit (The Beatitudes [Edinburgh: The Banner of Truth Trust, 1971], pp. 45-48): You will be weaned from self—Psalm 131:2 says, "Like a weaned child rests against his mother, my soul is like a weaned child within me." When you are poor in spirit you will focus not on yourself but on glorifying God and ministering to others. You...

    The Federalist ^ | April 03, 2026 | M.D. Kittle
    Government investigator Mike Howell says Pam Bondi, out as attorney general, wasn’t the right fit to take on the weaponizers. Pam Bondi was President Donald Trump’s second choice for attorney general, and she never quite fit. Bondi often looked uncomfortable in the top prosecutor role, fumbling her way through and failing to meet the demands of a Department of Justice with a mandate to bring the criminals in the corrupt Biden administration to account. The frustration from the MAGA movement has been mounting for many months. The president’s patience had worn threadbare with an attorney general who — for many...
