Texas school shooting: Obama clobbered for linking Uvalde massacre to two-year mark of George Floyd’s murder

“Critics railed against Obama for suggesting a comparison between Tuesday’s massacre and the police brutality Floyd faced.” 

(Joseph A. Wulfsohn – Fox News) Former President Barack Obama raised eyebrows on Wednesday for attempting to link this week’s mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas, to the anniversary of George Floyd’s murder.

Nineteen children and two teachers of Robb Elementary School were murdered by an 18-year-old gunman, who was killed during a gunfire exchange with authorities. Tuesday’s tragedy is now among the worst mass shootings in U.S. history. Continue reading

High Gas and Home Fuel Prices to Soar Indefinitely

“It is looking increasingly likely that the only cure for these high prices would be a recession, a devastating cure.”

(Mary Dowling – Independent Sentinel) Residential electricity rates have been surging for months and are poised to climb even higher this summer on a combination of tight supplies of natural gas and coal [thanks to Biden], an unrelenting drought in the Western US, and a nationwide forecast for extreme heat, according to Bloomberg. Continue reading

A Cabinency of Dunces

“The common denominator to these Biden appointees is ideological rigidity, nonchalance, and sheer incompetence.”  

(Victor Davis Hanson – American Greatness) As the nation sinks inexplicably into self-created crisis after crisis, debate rages whether Joe Biden is incompetent, mean-spirited, or an ideologue who feels the country’s mess is his success.

A second national discussion revolves around who actually is overseeing the current national catastrophe, given Joe Biden’s frequent bewilderment and cognitive challenges. Continue reading

The Elitists Who Want to Rule the World

“Brilliant businessmen and ambitious politicians, striving bureaucrats and myopic experts — will cure the world of its ills, so long as we grant them power. Or, more likely, so long as they seize power in the name of “stakeholders” to whom they are never answerable.”

(Ben Shapiro – PJ Media) Klaus Schwab is the head of the World Economic Forum; he founded the organization in 1971. Each year, the WEF hosts a massive conference in Davos, Switzerland, with thousands of world leaders, diplomats and experts on various topics gathering to trade ideas about how best to cooperatively run the world….

WHO withdraws 12 Biden ‘sovereignty’ amendments amid fierce opposition

(WND) Amid charges of ceding U.S. sovereignty to the World Health Organization, 12 of the 13 amendments submitted by the Biden administration for a vote in the World Health Assembly this week in Geneva have been removed from consideration.

The amendments were publicized only last month, and it was the advocacy of independent researcher James Roguski that alerted the public to the implications for U.S. sovereignty, prompting a groundswell of popular opposition, largely in the past week. Continue reading

Judge Rules Donors to RZIM Can Sue Over Ravi Zacharia’s Sexual Misconduct

“The donors zero in on the discretionary RZIM fund ‘Touch of Hope’ which was used as the primary source for Zacharias to funnel his illicit expenditures.”

(Protestia) RZIM is about to experience a world of hurt after a federal judge ruled that a class-action lawsuit against Ravi Zacharias International Ministries can move forward, the result of past donors suing the organization for using their funds over the last 17 years to pay off victims of the late world-famous apologist. Continue reading

Biden Turns Texas Horror Into a Partisan Screed Full of Bad Jokes

(Katie Pavlich – Townhall) Speaking from the Roosevelt Room of the White House Tuesday night, President Joe Biden addressed the horrific shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas. An 18-year-old man stormed the school, killing 19 children and three adults [including the shooter].

During his remarks, Biden didn’t use the time to honor the victims and their families. Instead, he rehashed old jokes about deer wearing kevlar and ranted while reading the teleprompter. Continue reading

Deep State? What About Deep Church?

“Unfortunately the world and worldly practices as—opposed to biblical practices and principles—have entered the Church, and there appears to be a “deep church” as well as a “deep state.”  Are we willing to acknowledge and recognize how much the world has been allowed into the Church?  Are we even willing to address the issues biblically?” 

(Helen Louise Herndon – The Aquila Report) The term “deep state” is ubiquitous in today’s parlance and used by many to signify political control and power in the United States.  While driving my car just a while ago listening to the program, Issues, Etc., on the Lutheran Missouri Synod radio station KFUO, reference to the “deep state” occurred several times….

Fanatic Cult Leader Klaus Schwab: ‘The Future Is Being Built By Us’

“Panels included: investing in China, averting a global food crisis (partnered with CNN for this), staying the course for climate change, equitable responses to the pandemic (partnering with Politico and focusing on Moderna’s CEO), equitable economic outlook for the US (partnering with the NYT), shaping the future on investing (partnering with Reuters), defining the US (WSJ on stakeholder capitalism).”

(Mary Dowling – Independent Sentinel) On Day 1 of the World Economic Forum, attendees – the global elites – unabashedly flew in on their private gas-guzzling jets to discuss climate change. Continue reading

Yale Prof: Telling Gay Men to Stop Having Sex With Strangers to Halt Monkeypox Spread is Untenable

(Chris Menahan – InformationLiberation) Remember how Fauci said go ahead and use Grindr for hookups during the start of the covid pandemic?

“If you want to go a little bit more intimate, well, then that’s your choice regarding a risk,” Fauci said.

Amazing. They told us to lock down and stop living our lives for years to avoid COVID but now they say it would be stigmatizing and unfair to tell gay men to stop having random sex with strangers to avoid monkeypox. These are our “public health experts,” folks. — Matt Walsh Continue reading

Jory Micah Arrested for Biting Cop’s Hand, Faces 19 Charges and 10 Years in Prison

“According to reports, Micah is “charged by state police with aggravated assault, simple assault, resisting arrest, and possession of drug paraphernalia.” 

(Protestia) Jory Micah continues prancing into apostasy without a care in the world, giving the world a living, breathing emblem of what it means to be wholly without the mind of Christ, despite her frequently-touted Master of Arts in Christian Doctrine and History. Continue reading

WOKE Army Looks at Transfers If Soldiers Don’t Agree with State/Local Laws

(Mary Dowling – Independent Sentinel) The WOKE army, which might go to war with China or Russia, is considering a policy called a “compassionate reassignment” permitting soldiers to request a transfer to a different area if they feel state or local laws discriminate against them because of their gender.

In addition to gender, the service member could cite sex, religion, race, or pregnancy as a reason to move. Continue reading

White House Scrambles to Cancel Biden’s Promise to React ‘Militarily’ to Chinese Aggression

“Maybe someone in the West Wing should establish an Office for Explaining What the President Really Meant to Say. Obviously, it would be a full-time, high-pressure job, presumably with a high turnover.”

(Stephen Green – PJ Media) Presidentish Joe Biden said in Tokyo on Monday that the United States would “get involved militarily to defend Taiwan,” but now the White House is scrambling to clarify what Biden really meant.

There he goes again. Continue reading

Former SBC President Accused of Sexually Assaulting Woman 20 Years Younger Than Him According to Task Force

(The Dissenter) The Dissenter has been covering the story of the Southern Baptist Convention’s (SBC) political hit job perpetrated by Russell Moore, an ex-employee of the SBC’s Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission. After he departed the denomination to join the staff at the apostate “Christian” publication, Christianity Today, to continue his liberal agenda, Moore leaked a letter to the press claiming he had knowledge of sex abuse involving women and children dating back nearly two years and alleged that SBC leaders pressured him to cover up these abuses. Continue reading

Famous Seeker-Sensitive Megachurch Cuts Staff Budget by $6.5 Million, Laying off 30% of Staff

(Protestia) Willow Creek Community Church, once a multi-campus 25,000 member church founded by Bill Hybels that pioneered the church growth and seeker-sensitive movement – the demonic practice of gearing everything about a church service to be as comfortable and friendly to non-believing “seekers” as possible, is crashing and burning.

The church announced that they were cutting their staff budget by $6.5 million dollars and axing 30% of the employees, the result of losing over 10,000 congregants in the last 3 years: Continue reading

Monkey Pox: Truth versus Fearporn

“Is the biothreat real? Is is imminent? Does it justify the global media hype? As I was waiting in an airport lounge to travel from USA to the UK two days ago, I saw a newsreel from CNN which was breathlessly reporting on this “threat” while displaying historic images of patients suffering from Smallpox disease. This provides a classical example of public health fearporn, in my opinion…”

(Robert W. Malone) I keep getting asked the same question again and again; is this outbreak of monkey pox a real threat, or is this another case of overstated and weaponized public health messaging? I am going to save my answer to this question for the end of this article and instead focus on what monkey pox is, the nature and characteristics of the associated disease, what we know and don’t know.

Photo credit: Breitbart

(Spencer Lindquist – Breitbart) Amid pushback from parents and Republican leaders, Disney has launched a “Pride Collection” initiative, which includes an LGBTQ pride-themed line of plush toys marketed to young children.

Among the plush toys from Disney, which were made in conjunction with the squish mallow company, are various Disney characters such as Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, and Stitch, all of which feature a rainbow design. Continue reading

Evidence now shows false Russia collusion story began and ended with Clinton

“Hillary Clinton herself personally approved spreading the story to the news media, despite the concerns about its accuracy.”

(John Solomon – Just the News) In an era where the hunt for disinformation has become a political obsession, Hillary Clinton has mostly escaped having to answer what role she played in spreading the false Russia collusion narrative that gripped America for nearly three years.

On Friday, that dodge ended with a most unlikely witness: her former campaign manager Robby Mook, who was supposed to be a witness helping the defense of her former campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann on a charge of lying to the FBI. Continue reading

Jackie Hill Perry Releases Rap Video Saying Lake (of Fire?) Awaits White People Preaching Against CRT

“She has completely embraced every error and heresy the film [American Gospel] that she was once featured in, set out to expose.”

(The Dissenter) Jackie Hill Perry, who recently made headlines after claiming that “God primarily deals with her in dreams,” says that you don’t need “discernment bloggers” to teach you how to spot false teachings.

In 2018, Hill Perry was featured in a prominent and widely-viewed “discernment” film titled American Gospel, which turned the spotlight largely on the Word of Faith gospel that has infected the American Church…. Continue reading

San Francisco Bishop Bans Pelosi From Communion

“…I have determined that the point has come in which I must make a public declaration that she is not to be admitted to Holy Communion unless and until she publicly repudiates her support for abortion ‘rights’ and confess and receive absolution for her cooperation in this evil in the sacrament of Penance.”

(Newsmax) The archbishop of San Francisco told House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., that she is barred from receiving communion over her support for abortion rights, the archdiocese said in a letter released Friday. Continue reading

Michele Bachmann urges, ‘Melt the phone lines’ over WHO power grab

‘Trust me, once they get the power, Thy’ll use it’

(Art Moore – WND) An Associated Press “fact check” chastises former Congress member Michele Bachmann for claiming the Biden administration’s proposed amendments to the World Health Organization’s regulations amount to ceding substantial power to the U.N. agency’s director-general, allowing him to unilaterally declare a health emergency in the United States. Continue reading

Bethel Music is a Stumbling Block to Biblical Worship in Spirit and in Truth

Here’s the problem. When we do know the source and we know the source is theologically problematic, it becomes pretty difficult to sing that song without thinking of the theological associations. So…I would say don’t use it in worship.”

(The Dissenter) If you’ve followed us at The Dissenter (formerly Reformation Charlotte) at all, you know we’ve covered the contemporary Christian music movement and have written about several of its mainstream figures, including Kari Jobe and Hillsong…. Continue reading

Israel joins U.S. in plan to hand over sovereignty to United Nations World Health Organization

“It is a revolution that abolishes all of the constructs of human identity, whether it is sexual identity, family identity, or national identity. Globalism claims that human identity is created by men and does not originate in God (who they claim does not exist). God-given identities are evil, in this postmodern age, put in place to enslave women, blacks, LGBT people, and the like.”

(Leo Hohmann) Globalism is a demonic spirit that has infected every nation, even those least likely to realize a single long-term benefit from it. That would include the United States and Israel. Both of these nations were much stronger when they relied on their own people for manufacturing, supply chains and military protection of secure borders. Continue reading
