Explanation: What does it mean for Saturn and Neptune to be in retrograde? Featured is a composite of images taken over 34 nights from May 2025 to February 2026 tracing Saturn (brighter, foreground) and Neptune (dimmer, background). Over that time, the two planets exhibited retrograde motion, meaning they appeared to move backward in the sky. This apparent backwards motion occurs when Earth overtakes the slower outer planets as they orbit the Sun. Imagine the Solar System is a running track. Earth "runs" faster along the inside of the track compared to the outer planets. As Earth approaches, aligns, and then...

Shane Kidwell@shanerkidwell·5hWashington just became the first state in U.S. history to terminate a public employee pension plan.The plan belongs to retired police officers and firefighters. LEOFF Plan 1 was 160% funded as of June 2024 per the state's own actuarial valuation. It had not required a single contribution in 25 years. By 2029 it was projected to reach 200% funded with a $4.3 billion surplus.The legislature terminated the plan, swept $3.9 billion, and is using $880 million of it to refill a rainy day fund it already drained to cover a deficit it created.Days ago, retired first responders including former...

Minnesota Democrats on the House Fraud Prevention and State Agency Oversight Committee circled the wagons to protect one of their own, blocking a subpoena for Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar (MN-5) on Tuesday. The action, or lack thereof, prevents deeper scrutiny into the congresswoman's alleged ties to the massive Feeding Our Future scandal. Despite Republican control of the committee, the measure fell one vote short of the required two-thirds supermajority. Democrats, who claim they are actively rooting out fraud in the North Star State (they're not), uniformly opposed efforts to compel the Squad member to turn over documents and answer questions...

In Genesis chapter 1 you see the phrase, "God said and it was so or God said and He saw." Here's the thing what God says is so whether you see it or not. And just as sure as God said and made this physical (visible) realm, God said and made the spiritual (invisible) realm. There is an invisible realm. Notice, in Colossians 1:16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and...

Virginia Democrats won a narrow victory that could turn into a black eye for the party. In a clip posted to the social media platform X, former Democratic strategist Dan Turrentine reported that leading Democrats in the Old Dominion believe their redistricting plan, approved by voters last month, will not survive in court. "What I was told is they now think it's less than 50 percent that the court will let the certification go through," Turrentine said in a clip posted to the social media platform X. "The time, they don't believe, is on their side," he added moments later....

This week, the US Department of Justice obtained an indictment of David Morens, an aide to Dr. Anthony Fauci, former chief medical advisor for the Biden Administration, for destroying, altering, or falsifying of records in federal investigations; concealing, removing, or mutilating records, and aiding and abetting the misinforming of the American population on the origins of the COVID virus, the ineffectiveness of masks, social distancing, and the vaccines forced upon them. Former House COVID Subcommittee Chairman Brad Wenstrup (R-Ohio) said "the repercussions of these actions have caused significant damage to the public health system, and recovery may take considerable time...

When President Abraham Lincoln Prayed, a 5-minute video on YouTube

My dear friends, I am so blessed that President Trump has called for a national day of prayer for the turning back to the God of our founders on May 17th! Prayer in contrition and with a whole heart brings the Almighty into the spiritual war that is raging throughout this nation. That God, through President Trump, has stopped the demonic godless and lawless advance under Brandon is proof that He hears our prayers for America. In light of the present and continual persecution of President Trump by the godless and demonic American Woke Marxist, along with the demonic American...

Terms such as "historic" and "game-changing" were used by to describe the outcome of the nationally watched Republican primaries for state Senate in the Hoosier State. No less than five of the Trump-backed challengers unseated incumbents. Only two GOP senators have been defeated in primaries in the last 40 years. The outcome of the primaries will not affect the shape of Indiana's U.S. House districts until 2027.

SOUTH CARIBBEAN — A couple trapped on a hantavirus-infected cruise ship reportedly have declined to be rescued by a nearby Carnival cruise, saying they'd rather take their chances with hantavirus instead. "We appreciate the offer, we really do," cruise passenger Arthur Pendleton shouted down to rescue workers through a megaphone while wearing a hazmat suit. "But we've weighed our options. On one hand, we have fever, severe muscle aches, potential respiratory failure, and death. On the other hand, we have the deafening DJ deck, a hundred guys on board named Chaz, and the inevitable all-out violent brawl ending in death....

Heather Honey runs an organization called Verity Vote in Pennsylvania. She is a walking encyclopedia of information on how elections are actually run in this country. In the aftermath of the 2020 election in Pennsylvania, Heather began to hear some very disturbing things. Put simply, she began to acquire information that in counties around the state, more votes had been counted than the number of voters who voted. I’m not a math whiz, but I think we all understand that this is a big problem. Those two numbers – the number of people who voted and the number of votes...

President Trump has issued a statement on the passing of CNN founder Ted Turner, and it is quite different from other deaths of noted rich liberals. As The Gateway Pundit reported, Turner, the left-wing billionaire who founded CNN, died today at the age of 87. In addition to founding CNN, Turner was a prominent philanthropist who once donated $1 billion to the United Nations. Turner also gave $1.3 million to Democrats and Democratic causes throughout his life. No cause of death has been revealed yet, but Turner announced in 2018 that he had Lewy body dementia, a progressive brain disorder....

The history of the Trojan horse is probably one of the most famous stories ever told. A gigantic wooden horse is loaded with Greek soldiers and presented to the Trojans as a gift. Unsuspecting, they swallow the bait and pull the horse into the city. Under cover of darkness the Greeks slip out of the horse and open the gates to their comrades. Only hours later the mighty Troy goes up in flames. But what if the myth of the horse is not true at all? New, groundbreaking findings show that one of the most famous stories of all time...

Hahn’s office has officially requested that L.A. County District Attorney Nathan Hochman launch an investigation into the Turner’s Outdoorsman store on Hawthorne Boulevard in Torrance – and the seven other Turner’s Outdoorsman locations across the county. The store in Torrance is where Cole Tomas Allen, the alleged White House Correspondents’ Dinner gunman, purchased the shotgun used in the April 25 attack in Washington, D.C. “Turner’s Outdoorsman’s practices demand investigation,” Hahn wrote. “Every day, guns sold at Turner’s locations in L.A. County turn up at crime scenes. These guns are used to kill, to injure, to rob and to intimidate. They...

Tennessee lawmakers on Wednesday unveiled a proposal for a new congressional map that would heavily favor Republicans this November by splitting up the state’s sole Democratic district. The map would put a target on Rep. Steve Cohen, who represents the state’s only majority-Black district and is the lone Democrat among Tennessee’s nine House members. Memphis, which is currently contained in Cohen’s district, would be divided into three parts under the proposal. The proposal comes amid a renewed push from President Trump for GOP state lawmakers to move forward with mid-decade redistricting. Trump and Republicans scored a victory last week when...
