We live in a moment when Jewish life in America feels more vulnerable than it has in decades. The threats are real, and we cannot outsource all responsibility for our safety. With that in mind, I want to offer a modest proposal: First, we should drop the sneering rhetoric about guns. Too often, Jewish discourse is laced with derision for those who own guns or advocate for them. A little empathy, even if we disagree, is a Jewish value too. Second, Jews should learn to shoot. Every Jew should go to the gun range at least once. You may never...

This week, a person who was "tired of being trans" opened fire on praying students at the Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Two children were killed and 17 others were wounded. The killer's manifesto complained "gender and weed f**ked up my head. I wish I never tried experimenting with either. Don't let your kids smoke weed or change gender until they are like seventeen." The heinous crime sparked outrage among many public officials. Mayor Jacob Frey (D) warned "the most important thing is that we not blame the 'trans community' for this tragedy." He insisted that "anti-trans hate is...

This week, another transgender shoot-up of a Christian school provides more chilling evidence that the culture war is a spiritual war. The Minneapolis shooter’s actions and Democrats’ interpretation of them both demonstrate this. The New York Post published excerpts of the shooter’s journal posted on YouTube that include a drawing of him communing with a Satanic figure in a mirror. As I’ve written before, Satan-worshippers can be startlingly more direct than many Christians about the connections between their spiritual and political beliefs.

When a tragedy like the one at Annunciation Catholic School on August 27 unfolds, the knee-jerk reaction from Democrats and their allies in the corporate media is to demand more gun grabs and recruit Republicans to pass red flag laws. There is a solution, however, that wouldn’t require any further encroachment on law-abiding Americans’ Second Amendment rights. In fact, the answer lies in the very paperwork and background checks that leftists often claim aren’t enough of an obstacle to guns.

Long Form Interview

The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) presents itself as a bloc dedicated to advancing Islamic interests globally, often pushing an agenda that prioritizes the expansion of Islamic influence at the expense of Western values and principles. As the second-largest intergovernmental organization after the United Nations, the OIC holds considerable sway in shaping global policies, frequently promoting narratives that are more concerned with Islamic solidarity than with universal freedoms or democratic values. In its efforts to assert Islamic interests, the OIC often seeks to control critical global discussions on human rights, religious freedom, and security. This influence is frequently exercised in...

The National Iranian American Council (NIAC) has come under increasing scrutiny for acting as a de facto mouthpiece for the authoritarian regime in Tehran, all while claiming to represent Iranian-American interests. Far from being a neutral or pro-democracy organization, NIAC has repeatedly advanced narratives and policies that align closely with the goals of the Islamic Republic—a regime notorious for sponsoring terrorism, suppressing dissent, and threatening American allies. NIAC has long-standing ties to high-ranking regime figures, including former foreign minister Javad Zarif, and has actively lobbied against measures that would hold the Iranian government accountable—such as congressional oversight of nuclear...

Welcome to ... Minnesota? VIDEO AT LINK................... The chyron down at the bottom doesn't help. 👇 The last line may help you to decipher that this is Omar Fateh, the Somalian socialist who is running for mayor of Minneapolis. In this clip, there is some anger that the Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party (the state's branch of the Democratic Party) retracted its endorsement of Fateh. More from the Minnesota Star-Tribune: Fateh, a democratic socialist challenging Mayor Jacob Frey, won the endorsement at the end of a raucous July convention that prompted dozens of challenges amid delays and miscounted votes. The state party's Constitution,...

Is Abby Grossberg: Tucker Carlson’s “Mordecai”?Tucker Carlson has long trafficked in dog whistles and culture war grievances—but his rage toward Abby Grossberg, a Jewish former Fox producer who challenged him legally, seems to cut deeper. In classic authoritarian fashion, when confronted by a credible critic, Carlson didn't just fight back—he allegedly let that grudge fester into something uglier. Like Haman targeting Mordecai in the book of Wsthet [Esther 3:4] Purim story, Carlson’s hostility toward Grossberg hints at something broader and more dangerous: when a powerful man can't take accountability, he looks for someone to blame—and too often, it’s the same...

As families chased from their homes by the Burma Army return to their villages, hidden mines still threaten homes, churches, and fields. The Free Burma Rangers (FBR) are working with local volunteer deminers under civilian authority to train communities, improve detection, and get the gear needed to make the land safe again. Since the 2021 military coup, landmines have become one of the deadliest threats facing civilians in Burma. In Karenni and southern Shan state alone, there have been 205 recorded landmine incidents since that time, with actual numbers likely far greater due to underreporting. Burma now has one of...

Sadly, I'm not shocked by this. This "church" has hosted drag shows each June and said they would only hire a openly gay minister several years ago.

Since January, Tucker Carlson has been funded by Qatar and has become an opponent of Trump. The journalist is part of an Arab influence strategy over North American media. 18/06/2025 by Editorial Team.

According to various investigations, this is because Carlson is part of a Qatar influence strategy over American media. Official documents submitted to the U.S. Department of Justice under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) reveal Qatar's growing influence in strategic sectors of...
