I explore the ministry of Ravi Zacharias, and explain the necessity of apologetics in an increasingly pagan world.

Poll: Do you think they should have canceled the 1969 Woodstock music festival because of the 1969 flu pandemic that killed more than 100,000 people in the U.S., and more than 1 million worldwide?

VIDEO Eating ginger candy definitely prevents seasickness. I learned that on a recent cruise. However, on the same cruise I noticed that I never felt drunk despite drinking heavily. So I got to wondering whether eating ginger candy will prevent drunkenness. On May 5, I decided to test this idea out by eating ginger candy followed by drinking 375 ml of Tequila straight. What you see in this video is my participation in this experiment plus the result of that investigation.

The Evening Campaign Update (I Swear I Don’t Make This Stuff Up) I kid you not, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy continued his campaign as an aspirational 3rd-world despot last night by having his state attorney’s office deny the state’s citizenry the right to take an in-car tour of a tulip farm. The man appears determined to wrest the title of the nation’s most abusive governor away from Michigan’s plastic-faced Gretchen Whitmer. Apparently taking a cue from Whitmer’s edict denying Michiganders the ability to purchase seeds to plant their own flowers, Murphy is now denying New Jersyites the right to...

. Now that celebs like Tom Hanks and others reportedly have this so-called “corona virus,” the walking, butt-end of the American public, who thinks Hanks is a real person, might finally grasp what’s being done to them. That is—what’s being done to the public. By the maniac spin-masters who still raven to “get Trump,” at any cost, including poisoning the truth, the “news,” bringing down all of America, wrecking the future, and destroying anybody who seems to be in their way. As a wise woman said to me, “Now they can watch.” Meaning, they can see if Tom Hanks dies...

VIDEO Your humble YouTuber was cited yesterday in a Washington Post column. Although the column was laughably flawed due to the absurd premise that the predictions of New York Times economics columnist Paul Krugman are mostly accurate, the main takeaway is that it cited MEEEEEEEE!!!!!

VIDEO I had been intending to make a cast iron pan pizza for a long time but kept putting it off for what might seem like an incredibly silly reason. Namely I never made dough before and for some weird reason I had a fear of working with yeast because it is a type of bacteria. Well, after I worked with the yeast and the dough, I saw just how absurd that fear was and also how easy it is to prepare dough for pan pizza. With that out of the way, the rest was easy. The great thing...

The Duke of Sussex gave an impassioned speech backing teenage activist Greta Thunberg today as he declared the world was in a state of 'emergency' and 'losing' the battle against climate change. Harry arrived by the banks of Botswana's Chobe River in the north of the country this morning to take part in a tree-planting project - straining with dozens of people to get a huge sapling into the ground. The Duke stressed saving the environment was a race against time, adding: 'Led by Greta, the world's children are striking.' He said he could not understand why anyone - 'you,...

Some thoughts on President Trump's possible designation of the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization, and the attempt to rebrand Islam's biggest jihadist group.

Iowa's longest-serving Republican state lawmaker is ditching the party in a protest of what he called President Donald Trump's "unacceptable behavior" and is joining the Democrats. State Rep. Andy McKean, a moderate from eastern Iowa whose 29 years in the legislature include stints in the House and Senate, announced his party switch at a news conference Tuesday. He called Trump "a poor example for the nation and particularly for our children" and said he'll seek re-election in 2020 as a Democrat. "With the 2020 president election looming on the horizon, I feel as a Republican that I need to be...

VIDEO A brief look at the history of James Comey disingenuously acting as a weasel to maintain his holier than thou image.

Donald J. Trump Verified account @realDonaldTrump Even the Democrats now say that our Southern Border is a Crisis and a National Emergency. Hopefully, we will not be getting any more BAD (outrageous) court decisions! Due to the fact that Democrats are unwilling to change our very dangerous immigration laws, we are indeed, as reported, giving strong considerations to placing Illegal Immigrants in Sanctuary Cities only….The Radical Left always seems to have an Open Borders, Open Arms policy – so this should make them very happy! If the Radical Left Democrats all of a sudden don’t want the Illegal Migrants in...

31,000 protesters estimated by the government this week, just over 80,000 by the Yellow Vests. In Paris the authorities gave 5000 as the number of protesters.

PART 1 – OBAMA AND CLINTON COUNSEL INDICTED – Today the shoe is on the other foot, and I dare say it looks good. Chief White House Counsel in the Obama and Bill Clinton Administrations has been indicted for multiple untruths in the Mueller Probe. However, the Justice Department received no cooperation from those involved with Greg Craig. It seems to me they thought, although Craig told multiple untruths, they were above the law. Craig’s attorneys said, “Mr. Craig is not guilty of any charge and the government’s stubborn insistence on prosecuting Mr. Craig is a misguided abuse of prosecutorial...

Both sides counted lower number of Yellow Vests for Week 21 of the protest. The police say that 4000 protested in Paris. The police calculated that in Paris today they checked over 14,900 people in connection with today's protest. On the ring road around Paris a brief blockade by protesters today then police arrive using tear gas and flash bang rounds with projectiles thrown back their way.....

The government of France continues to apply the maximum pressure on Yellow Vests protests with an ever widening list of restricted zones for protest. This weekend restrictions are in place in Caen, Toulouse and Rouen, where a major Yellow Vests protest has been called for on social media. In Paris an ever widening zone of restriction includes the Champs-Elysees, the Elysee Palace (Presidential Home) and the National Assembly building. Nationwide a mobilization of 63,500 members of the police Saturday. In Paris we have the new Prefect of Police Didier Lallemont keeping up his pressure on protesters and a protest procession...

LET'S GET READY TO RUMBLLLLEEEEEE! Michael sits down with lawyer and publisher of Human Events, Will Chamberlain to discuss their shared goals, their different approaches to reaching those goals, and whether or not there is an effective way to regulate social media (or anything). Have you forgotten what two people disagreeing amicably sounds like? Then this is the episode for you.

Some thoughts on the recent wave of social media censorship.
