Hamas is calling on Gaza residents not to accept food from the new Israeli aid mechanism that began operating today. Hamas’s Interior Ministry warns Gaza residents against cooperating with the new Israeli food distribution mechanism, claiming its purpose is “the occupation’s takeover of aid distribution in the Strip.” The Hamas ministry adds: Israel is funding the mechanism through the “Gaza” aid fund and is violating international law by operating it. Gazans have the right to receive aid at their place of residence under international law. Cooperating with the occupation’s mechanism threatens the work of international organizations. If the mechanism fails,...

The FBI on Monday announced it reopened the investigation into cocaine found at the White House. “Shortly after swearing in, the Director and I evaluated a number of cases of potential public corruption that, understandably, have garnered public interest. We made the decision to either re-open, or push additional resources and investigative attention, to these cases. These cases are the DC pipe bombing investigation, the cocaine discovery at the prior administration’s White House, and the leak of the Supreme Court Dobbs case. I receive requested briefings on these cases weekly and we are making progress. If you have any investigative...

TCM has been showing movies in honor of Memorial Day since this past Friday evening. Its Memorial Day Marathon continues through this evening until early tomorrow morning. It kicked off its observance on Friday with the showing of The Best Years of Our Lives. Jack Fowler writes about the marathon in “Making Memorial Day with movies.” Peggy Noonan singled out The Best Years of Our Lives in her Wall Street Journal column “Memorial Day and the Best Movies of Our Lives.” I want to draw from my previously posted comments on the movie to recall it briefly with a little...

Memorial Day used to be on May 30th. Then Congress came in to help celebrate the day and shifted it all over the place by making it a Monday holiday. This was done to help federal workers and that’s fine with me, but it shows what congressional priorities are.The Greeks and the Romans had Memorial Days too with Pericles holding one in Athens in 431 BC. The highlight was his somber speech that praised the sacrifice and valor of those killed in the Peloponnesian War.2,452 years later, the man’s words ring true. His speech was so important that it is...

In 2023, the Supreme Court rendered a 6-3 decision that effectively outlawed affirmative-action policies in college admissions, finding in favor of groups representing qualified students whose applications were rejected at Harvard and the University of North Carolina. But, as he often does, Chief Justice John Roberts left a loophole. It allows colleges to continue their discriminatory admissions policies if they desire, and Roberts made sure to point at it in the decision. He stressed that universities can still take into account “an applicant’s discussion of how race affected his or her life, be it through discrimination, inspiration, or otherwise.” It...

Donald Trump said Sunday that he had a “very nice call” with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, and he has agreed to delay his threatened 50 percent tariff until July 9 at her request. The EU wants to negotiate, Trump said:That agreement came after a call Sunday with Ursula von der Leyen, the president of the European Commission, who had told Trump that she "wants to get down to serious negotiations," according to the U.S. president's retelling."I told anybody that would listen, they have to do that," Trump told reporters on Sunday in Morristown, New Jersey, as he...

Here we will expose the shooter on the roof of the Dallas County Records Building. This was the Headquarters of the Dallas County Sheriff's Office, and controlled by Law Enforcement.

Karmelo Anthony, the teenager charged in the fatal stabbing of Austin Metcalf, will be tried as an adult in Texas. The incident took place last month during a championship track meet at Kuykendall Stadium in Frisco, Texas. According to police, Anthony stabbed Metcalf following a dispute about where he was sitting. The case is being handled by the Collin County District Attorney’s Office, just north of Dallas. Anthony has been charged with first-degree murder and will face trial as an adult. This is because Texas allows minors aged 16 or 17 to be tried as adults for certain crimes. If...

Massachusetts Senate Majority Leader Cynthia Stone Creem (D) introduced a bill this year to create a commission with the goal of reducing the number of miles driven by residents in their cars because of ‘climate change’, with an ultimate goal to “reduce the need for personal vehicles.” The 82-year-old Creem wants the state government to promulgate regulations that could fine residents for driving too much and force them into riding public transportation, using bikes paths and walking. Excerpt from Bill S. 2246: Section 81. (a) To relieve traffic congestion, improve air quality, and promote compliance with the greenhouse gas emissions...

On Sunday, Johnson made an appearance on CNN’s State of the Union and told Jake Tapper that there are enough Republicans in the Senate to “stop the process until the President gets serious about the spending reduction and reducing the deficit.” WATCH: How many other Republican Senators do you think share your concerns and are willing to work to make major changes to this bill? I think we have enough to stop the process until the President gets serious about the spending reduction and reducing the deficit.

Ukraine used drones in an attempt to down a helicopter carrying Russian President Vladimir Putin over Russia’s Kursk region on May 20. Russian Air Force Major-General Yuri Dashkin said Putin’s helicopter was “virtually at the epicenter of repelling a large-scale attack by the enemy’s drones,” and that 46 drones were shot down during the attack, according to a report from the Associated Press.

This week, President Trump lambasted South African President Cyril Ramaphosa over the way his country is treating its farmers. The incident arose after Trump had granted refugee status to 59 white South African farmers who claim they are being discriminated against and threatened with expropriation of their property by the government and murder by anti-white racists. Ramaphosa tried to explain that "my country has passed a law legalizing the seizure of land for public purposes just like your country allows for land to be taken from owners to fulfill public purposes. How can you be outraged over it?" Trump pointed...

A Christian rally and concert hosted by the conservative group MAYDAY USA in Cal Anderson Park on Saturday afternoon descended into chaos after Antifa militants showed up to clash with attendees, resulting in 23 arrests. The event, branded by organizers as the “#DontMessWithOurKids” rally, began around 2 pm and drew the attention of the radicals for its mission, including defending the “sanctity of human life,” “biological gender,” and “freedom of religion.” Antifa and left-wing counter-protesters showed up in park, the same location of 2020's deadly Capitol Hill protest (CHOP), accusing MAYDAY USA of promoting “fascist family values” and holding the...

In these last few day many people have asked me what I think about the new Pope Leo XIV? As a priest and pastor, one of my most important priorities is to protect the sheep from the wolf, that is, to try to be a “good shepherd” ready to “lay down my life for the sheep” (Jn 10:11; 1Pt 5:1-4), and thus to warn the souls of the many dangers and traps today in this period of the great apostasy before the manifestation of the Antichrist (2Thess ch2) when “if possible, even the elect” (Mt 24:24) will be led astray....

84 years ago today, Bob Dylan was born. At his Nobel Prize winning best, from 1961 to 1966, he challenged us to rethink everything with everything he wrote. Donald Trump, born about 5 years after Dylan, in 1946, looks to me like he is just entering into a period of his Dylanesque best. Trump forces us to revealuate this modern world all the time. Bob Dylan mastered and elevated American music twice to great literature in a few short years, first as a folkie but then as a great rock n roller. Potus 45 surprised everyone to come down a...
