Six million dead. Ten million enslaved. Twenty-five million displaced. The raging genocide hiding in plain sight — and why you’ve never heard of it. They say the winners write the history books. What if the Nazis had won? The Holocaust would be a vague conspiracy theory — denied, spun, suppressed, purged from the media. Anyone who raised it would be marginalized, branded a fringe lunatic. Israel wouldn’t exist. The Middle East would be under total Islamic domination. And eventually, America would be fighting Nazis on the homefront. We don’t have to guess what that world looks like. There’s a real...

A clip of Democrat Senate hopeful James Talarico offering a bizarre prayer while delivering an invocation on the House floor in 2021 has resurfaced where he referenced Hinduism, Islam, and more while attempting to acknowledge the names of the one true God and His son Jesus, ending his prayer in “all your many names.”“Let us pray. Holy Mystery, you have so many names,” Talarico said in the prayer before referencing a long list of other religious beliefs and their names for God, seemingly offering a universalist view of the One True God, the great I Am.“The Torah calls you Creator....
