Democrats’ Criminal-Leniency Policies Sparked an Undeniable Crime Wave

“After trying to cover up last year’s shocking rise in violent crime, the liberal media is now trying to spin this year’s increase in crime. The New York Times headline announcing the worst increase in murder in American history read: “Murder Rose by Almost 30% in 2020. It’s Rising at a Slower Rate in 2021.” This transparent attempt to add a positive spin to a worsening situation insults the intelligence of the American people.” 

(Sen. Tom Cotton – Breitbart) The numbers are in, and the debate is over. Our nation is in the midst of one of the worst crime waves in American history. Continue reading

Salon says ‘it’s time to start firing unvaccinated people’ and I guess they must really dislike black Americans

“As for ethnicity, black and Hispanic Americans continue to lag behind whites and Asians in vaccinations.”

(Jesse James – Not the Bee) There’s only one problem with this article, Salon…[see Salon’s photo on the site] and it’s that the largest group of unvaxxed people in America by ethnicity are not white MAGA hillbillies with scraggly beards, but black Americans of all educational and socioeconomic backgrounds. Continue reading

Concerned Parents Are ‘Immediate Threat’ Says National School Boards Association President—Some Are Even Domestic Terrorists!

“Not only does Garcia, blame parents for “threats and intimidations” instead of her own failed leftist school boards, but she also raises the crazy bar to high by equating upset parents’ attempts to speak at school board meetings as “equivalent to a form of domestic terrorism and hate crimes.” She even calls for numerous federal law enforcement agencies to target those parents.”

(Gwendolyn Sims – PJ Media)  It’s completely understandable that many parents around the country are fed up. They’re fed up with not only the onerous and arbitrary pandemic-related safety measures but also the racist and radical left-wing ideologies being forced upon kids in our taxpayer-funded schools. America’s parents are concerned and pushing back. Continue reading

A discussion of felt emotions in worship, one that is sure to annoy all fans of scrunchy-face worship

“Is the intensity of Pentecostal worship a rational response of the heart, or is it a sensation? Is it evoked by consideration of truth, or charmed by a combination of chord progressions? Is the goal to rightly value and admire God, or to feel my feelings?”

California to require all schoolchildren to get COVID shots

“In Los Angeles County — the nation’s largest, with more than 10 million residents — just 1.7% of people tested for the virus have it and daily infections are down by half in the last month, when most kids went back to school.”

(AP) California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Friday announced the nation’s first coronavirus vaccination mandate for schoolchildren, a plan that will have all elementary through high school students get the shots once the vaccine gains final approval from the U.S. government for different age groups. Continue reading

The Coordinated Attack on Ivermectin Is a Crime Against Humanity

(Louie Gohmert – American Greatness)  Just as we saw with hydroxychloroquine last summer, government alphabet agencies, the medical industrial complex, and their willing accomplices in the media have recently made it clear that there is yet another safe, effective treatment for COVID-19 they wish to torpedo. It’s the latest naughty word which will get you censored on social media and mocked and belittled by late-night “comedians”: ivermectin. Continue reading

Merck Says Experimental Pill Cuts Worst Effects of Coronavirus

(Breitbart)  Merck & Co. said Friday that its experimental COVID-19 pill reduced hospitalizations and deaths by half in people recently infected with the coronavirus and that it would soon ask health officials in the U.S. and around the world to authorize its use.

If cleared, Merck’s drug would be the first pill shown to treat COVID-19, a potentially major advance in efforts to fight the pandemic. All COVID-19 therapies now authorized in the U.S. require an IV or injection. Continue reading

Coup investigator John Durham issued new subpoenas

(Mary Dowling – Independent Sentinel) Special Counsel John Durham issued a new set of subpoenas, including to a law firm with ties to Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign. – Perkins Coie.

The grand jury subpoenas for documents were issued earlier this month, according to CNN, after Durham charged Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann for knowingly making a false statement to the FBI. Continue reading

Some rules to lighten the burden of woke Americans

(Bill O’Reilly, The Rules) Man, it’s not easy to be a woke progressive these days.  So many controversies, so little time to think up ways to justify a far-left lifestyle.  It’s crazy.  So, I am here to help.  Here are some rules to lighten the burden of woke Americans.

No criticism of minority communities. Don’t do it, ever.  The CDC says only about 30 percent of African-Americans have accepted Covid vaccinations.  A very low number…. Continue reading

Pastor John Hagee denies that Jesus is the only Messiah?

Before I get to Reformation Charlotte’s article, you should know that John Hagee is a false prophet, a fact that RC doesn’t mention. If blood moon rings a bell it is because the term has been popularized by Hagee and another false prophet, Mark Biltz. (Biltz holds to heretical Hebrew Roots beliefs.) In a piece I penned, Blood Moons: Prophets Who Persist in Prophesying Falsely I said this about Hagee:  “Prophet pastor John Hagee, who has more baggage than Samsonite, enticed a large number of Christians into believing the blood moons hype by reading his aptly titled book Blood Moons. In 2014 Hagee gave us fair warning: “God is trying to communicate with us in a supernatural way…I believe that in the next two years, we’re going to see something dramatic happen in the Middle East involving Israel that will change the course of history in the Middle East and impact the whole world.”  Continue reading

We Must Insist on Autonomy in the Practice of Medicine Before It’s Too Late

The Rome Declaration, posted on September 23, with 7,200 signatures from doctors and researchers [is] demanding a restoration of the doctor/patient relationship, an end to political intrusion into the practice of medicine, and a restoration of their rights to prescribe treatment under the principle of “First do no harm.”

(Stacey Lennox – PJ Media)  It is becoming increasingly evident that vaccinated and unvaccinated Americans who are infected with COVID-19 need early outpatient treatment for COVID-19…. Continue reading

NYT Corrects Story on Border Agents, Admits No Evidence for Claim They Attacked Haitian Illegals

(R. Cort Kirkwood – The New American) When the leftist Twitter mob spread photos of mounted U.S. Border Patrol agents “whipping” Haitian illegal aliens to herd them back across the Rio Grande into Mexico, President Biden reacted quickly.

“It was horrible to see” images of “people being strapped,” he lamented. Continue reading

Arizona 2020 Vote Audit Finds Potentially Election-Shifting Numbers Of Illegal Ballots

“Left unmentioned, however, were the numerous findings of problems with the election and, most significantly, evidence indicating tens of thousands of ballots were illegally cast or counted.”

(Margot Cleveland – The Federalist)  On Friday, the Arizona State Senate released the final reports on the results of the Maricopa County Forensic Election Audit. While the reports made several significant findings supporting former President Trump’s complaints about the 2020 election, the corporate media ignored those aspects of the audit to focus instead only on the results of the hand recount. Continue reading

Marine Officer Who Demanded Accountability From Military Leaders For Afghanistan Debacle Has Been Thrown in The Brig

(Debra Heine – American Greatness)  The Marine officer who received viral attention in August for posting a video on social media blasting military leadership over the botched withdrawal from Afghanistan, has been thrown in the brig, the United States Marine Corps has confirmed.

Lt. Col Stuart Scheller was taken to a military brig on Monday for violating a gag order, his father told the military blog Task & Purpose…. Continue reading

You Need to Hear a Story About Chickens Before Vaccine Mandates Go Any Further

“Marek’s disease in chickens was the first time the phenomenon of a leaky vaccine, and its effect on viral mutation, demonstrated that the vaccinated can be dangerous to the unvaccinated.”

(The Conservative Dispatch)  While reading a story about a new COVID-19 variant called R-1, blamed for 53 cases in California, I came across a line that needs to be corrected. “The R.1 variant proves that mutations will continue to take place…. Continue reading

Who is Controlling the Biden Presidency?

“Why would Biden abandon Bagram Air Force Base? It is key to all of Southwest Asia – just 400 miles to China and 500 miles to Iran. It is a vitally important geopolitical, military and intelligence platform with consequences and “reach” that involve far more than just Afghan regional matters. Who, specifically, made the recommendation to just walk away from Bagram – and then who gave the order?”

(Chris Farrell – Gatestone Institute)  The question has been asked dozens of different ways, depending on the questioner and the public policy issue. “Who is controlling the Biden presidency?” Continue reading

Mask Mandates Correlate With GREATER COVID Spread/Death

“Studies have found that masks become as pathogen-laden Petri dishes on people’s faces, can restrict oxygen intake and induce dangerously high carbon dioxide levels in people’s bloodstreams, may introduce unhealthful plastic microparticles into wearer’s systems, can cause skin problems, may exacerbate anxiety and breathing difficulties in children, and can lead to altered facial development in kids due to continuous mouth-breathing.”

(Selwyn Duke – The New American)  Perhaps a clue is that the politicians who insist on instituting mask mandates are shown, repeatedly, to not be too fond of actually wearing masks themselves…. Continue reading

Are Your Favorite Celebrity Pastors Really Saved?

“With few exceptions, you will not find these celebrities standing bold for the truth of God’s Word in the face of cultural acceptance of sexual abnormality, persecution, or relentless attacks against religious freedom.” 

(Reformation Charlotte)  Everyone has their favorite celebrities. They may be sports players or musicians — and many have their favorite celebrity Christian preachers. But are those really famous celebrity pastors and preachers who claim to be born again really saved? Continue reading

The Symptoms of Our Insanity

“There is only one bright spot for the moment: perhaps the Chinese, Russians, North Koreas, and Iranians see us as so crazy, weird, and self-loathing that they have no idea what our best and brightest nihilists might do.”

(Victor Davis Hanson – American Greatness)  Think for a minute.

When did we become a nation of socialist AOCs wearing “Tax the Rich” dresses to $35,000-a-ticket celebrity galas, without mandatory masks, while being served by masked servants—a now tired script from the Obama birthday bash crowd to the grandees at the Emmys?  Continue reading

America Has Not Lost Its Religion — It Just Replaced It with the ‘Cult of the Coronavirus’

(Breitbart)  Monday, FNC’s Tucker Carlson warned Christianity was being replaced by what he called the “cult of the coronavirus” and what cultural impacts that would have on the country.

Carlson referred to Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY), who he noted wore a “vaccinated necklace,” and called her the “high priestess” of the cult.

Transcript as follows:

CARLSON: “Is God dead?” That’s the question that Time Magazine famously asked way back in 1966 when Time Magazine mattered. The answer then and now is, “No, God is not dead.” But a lot of the people who believed in Him are dead, it turns out. Continue reading

It Gets Worse: Look Who Worked Together to Frame Donald Trump With Fake Russia Hoax

“Stories of Soros’s meddling in elections around the world are legion. When he’s not tanking  markets or creating fake revolutions, he and his minions are opening borders, destroying reputations, and making the world safer for assisted suicide, hard drugs, and released inmates to prey upon the law abiding.”

(Victoria Taft – PJ Media)  How much more frightening will this conspiracy get?  Now, according to court documents reported by JusttheNews.com, we learn that The Dark Lord himself, George Soros, paid for his own investigator to work for the U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee to plant the fake Trump-Russia story–and that then-Senator John McCain let him do it. Continue reading

Times Reveals FBI Role in January 6

WARNING. This article is going to make your blood boil.

One thing is certain; the Times’ damage-control article is just the tip of the FBI iceberg. And more proof January 6 was an inside job.

(Julie Kelly – American Greatness) The New York Times often acts as the spin cycle for the Democrats’ dirty laundry. For years, Times reporters have helped get ahead of damning news, especially when it’s related to the Russian collusion hoax, in an attempt to establish the narrative early. Continue reading

Amid Growing Frustration Among Laypeople, SBC Leadership Finally Call on Ed Litton to Resign

(Reformation Charlotte)  While it has been like pulling teeth trying to get Southern Baptist leaders to break the 11th Commandment–thou shalt not speak out against other SBC leaders–some leaders are sensing the growing frustration among laypeople who are quickly tiring of the repeated failure of the leadership to take action when action is necessary. I’m speaking, of course, in the context of the Southern Baptist president, Ed Litton’s, plagiarism and lying scandal. Continue reading

Companies Stand to Make Billions Off Coronavirus Booster Shots

(Paul Bois – Breitbart)  The advent of coronavirus booster shots could rake in billions of dollars in profits for companies like Pfizer and Moderna, according to the Associated Press (AP).

“Billions more in profits are at stake for some vaccine makers as the U.S. moves toward dispensing COVID-19 booster shots to shore up Americans’ protection against the virus,” reported the AP. “How much the manufacturers stand to gain depends on how big the rollout proves to be.” Continue reading
