(Mary Dowling) President Trump’s senior White House aide, Stephen Miller, corrected the record on a number of issues relating to the Big, Beautiful Bill. Some of the potentially erroneous claims come from the House, others from the Senate.
The bottom line is the bill slashes $1.6 trillion, strengthens the border, cuts welfare abuse, and protects tax relief for working Americans.
There is a lot of criticism over not codifying the DOGE cuts in this bill…. Continue reading
“By defending individual liberty and questioning government overreach during the pandemic, PJ Media and our readers apparently earned ourselves a spot on Biden’s domestic terrorist watchlist. The irony? We were right about the mandates all along—their ineffectiveness, their unconstitutionality, and their use as tools of control rather than as public health measures.”
(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) The COVID pandemic feels like a distant, bizarre dream now—but the remnants are still around if you look closely. A lone mask-wearing Karen at the grocery store… faded social distancing stickers no one bothered to peel off… reminders of just how absurd—and sometimes terrifying—that era really was….

“Along the way, something in the organization’s emphasis shifted so that the early sense of collegiality dissipated and the ranks of speakers became steadily narrower. G3 spearheaded the Statement on Social Justice and the Gospel and, though I was present for the meetings in which it was discussed and began to be drafted, I opted not to sign it. As that statement became increasingly central to G3’s identity, it began to seem inevitable that my time there would come to an end.”
(Tim Challies) I have fond memories of the early years of the G3 Conference. When G3 held its debut event in 2013, I was one of the invited speakers and it quickly became a tradition. For eight years I fell into the comfortable pattern of making an annual trip to Atlanta. I would almost always speak in the second spot, then remain for the rest of the event to enjoy growing relationships with speakers and attendees alike. Though the list of speakers varied at each event, it is my recollection that Josh Buice (who founded G3), Steve Lawson, and I were the three who brought a keynote address for each of those first eight years.

“Kennedy then issued a warning. “It just sounds to me like there were a lot of people coming to the Department of Energy who had all four feet and their snout in the trough. I hope you’ll take whatever time you need to go through these projects penny by penny.”
(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) During a blistering Senate Appropriations Committee hearing, Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) was visibly floored after Energy Secretary Christopher Wright dropped a bombshell: the Department of Energy handed out a staggering $93 billion in loans and commitments during the final 76 days of the Biden administration, a figure that more than doubled the loan total from the previous 15 years combined. Continue reading
(The Dissenter) At The Dissenter, we are committed to proclaiming the truth of God’s Word while dragging into the light the wolves who twist it to serve the devil’s agenda. Over the years, we’ve exposed a long procession of frauds—charlatans, grifters, heretics, and smooth-talking deceivers—men and women like Joel Osteen, Joyce Meyer, Steven Furtick, Beth Moore, T.D. Jakes, and many that you may not have ever even heard of, each one helping pave the broad road to destruction with a smile and a Scripture ripped out of context.
Today, we introduce number 64 on our ever-growing roster of deceivers: Joseph Prince. Continue reading
(Mary Dowling) President Donald Trump has warned Apple that it will be hit with a 25% tariff if it does not start producing iPhones in the U.S.
In a post on his Truth Social platform Friday morning, Trump wrote he had “long ago informed Tim Cook of Apple that I expect their iPhone’s that will be sold in the United States of America will be manufactured and built in the United States, not India, or anyplace else.”
“If that is not the case, a Tariff of at least 25% must be paid by Apple to the U.S.” Trump said. Continue reading
“Yes, the propagandists in the media all over the world have blood on their hands after this.”
(Stephen Kruiser – PJ Media) After years of being quick to blame conservative rhetoric for various acts of violence, the Democrats and other American leftists have suddenly gone quiet on the subject. Their claims over the years about conservative rhetoric were never remotely true, but the same cannot be said about what they’ve been condoning and the horrific murders of two Israeli embassy staffers on Wednesday night. Continue reading
(Steven Richards – Just the News) Senate subcommittee’s interim report has disclosed that federal health officials from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) received warnings as early as February 2021 about the potential for patients to develop myocarditis in the wake of the COVID-19 mRNA vaccination. It also concludes that they delayed issuing a public warning about the deadly heart disease, and downplayed the risks of the vaccine and the condition, new records show. Continue reading
Pope Leo XIV
“The Reformers understood that when the Roman church said that the Pope was the head or supreme pastor of the church, they replaced Christ with the Pope. That is why the Reformers would refer to the Pope consistently as the antichrist, which means the one who replaces or stands falsely in the place of Christ. What better description could there be even today of the Pope, who claims for himself the very position that Christ alone holds, as head of the church?”
(Robb Brunansky – The Cripplegate) “For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church, He Himself being the Savior of the body.” Ephesians 5:23
This profound truth—that Christ reigns as head of the church—carries immense weight. Countless martyrs have sacrificed their lives to defend it. In 17th-century Scotland, Covenanters huddled in misty glens, clutching tattered Bibles. Hunted for rejecting the king’s claim over the church, they sang psalms defiantly, their voices echoing across the moors. A mother, shielding her child, whispered of Christ’s sole headship before facing exile. Continue reading
“The president previously questioned if Biden’s last-minute pardons in January are “void” because they were signed with an autopen. He doubled down on that argument over the weekend also, after audio from the former president’s interview with a special counsel was unveiled.”
(Matt Vespa – Townhall) Ed Martin’s nomination to serve as DC Attorney was nuked by Republican Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC). He was in office on an interim basis. Trump selected Jeanine Pirro to replace Martin, who is now a pardon attorney and helming the Department of Justice’s weaponization task force…. Continue reading
“Celebrity culture turns shepherds into performers and pulpits into stages. When influence is prioritized over intimacy with Christ, ministry becomes a brand instead of a calling.”
(Drew Von Nieda – Servants of Grace) There is a kind of sorrow that does not arise from fear or fragility—but from reverence. It’s not a sorrow for the Church herself—for Christ has promised that the gates of hell will not prevail against her (Matthew 16:18).
Rather, it is a sorrow for the men who once stood behind pulpits, who were once voices of conviction at conferences and shepherds of flocks—and who have now fallen. Continue reading
“The Trinity is one of the central theological foundations of Christian churches. However, that teaching is widely misunderstood, often rejected, and rarely acted upon…” – George Barna (article below under Related)
(Ryan Foley) A new survey has found that more than half of Americans do not believe God exists or that He “affects lives,” prompting one prominent researcher to highlight the need for “sweeping national repentance and spiritual renewal.”
The Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University released the second installment of its American Worldview Inventory 2025 on Wednesday. Continue reading
Kay Arthur – photo courtesy Precept
(Anne Stych – Ministry Watch) Kay Arthur, a popular Christian speaker, author and longtime host of the “Precepts for Life” Bible teaching program that was broadcast around the world, has died.
“She will be remembered for her love for the Lord, His Word, and His people,” Chattanooga-based Precept, the ministry Arthur co-founded with her late husband, Jack, said in announcing her death. “A dynamic speaker with a warm writing style that captivated many, Kay was a remarkable beacon of grace and truth to all who encountered her.”
A former missionary and registered nurse, Arthur was born Nov. 11, 1933, in Jackson, Michigan, and graduated from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio…. Continue reading
“The term Wellness has allowed these New Age and occult practices to fly under the radar so that they can enter schools, workplaces, and the church. People do not know that Wellness does not mean health. Rather, it means one is responsible for one’s health, including your thoughts and your “invisible” body which is made up of chi/chakras/the meridian – whatever one believes in. These things do not exist but they act as spiritual vehicles for deception and destruction.”
(Marcia Montenegro) Don Veinot recently sent me a brief video, Spirituality Without Religion: The Rise of the ‘Modern Mystic’ (less than 9 minutes), that discusses how society is now more open to “spirituality” without connecting it to specific religions, at least not knowingly. This has been a trend for some time and is not new. It is just that practices like yoga, burning sage, mindfulness, breathwork, energy healing, shadow work, and other similar practices, are no longer viewed as fringe or even just merely tolerated, but are embraced as paths to what is called wholeness, wellness, “holistic spirituality” and other ideals that have reached a high status in today’s culture. Continue reading
“Alcoholics Anonymous is successful. But its success is not in treatment effectiveness, which is limited, but in pointing people away from Jesus Christ, and in watering down the theology of the Christians who do attend.”
(John Lanagan – The Word Like Fire) What does the Bible say about Christians who participate in 12 Step groups such as Alcoholics Anonymous? Is this allowed or is it biblically forbidden?
It is forbidden. In spiritual matters we are to remain separate. According to 2 Corinthians 6:14-15: Continue reading
(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) For four years, Americans watched Joe Biden stumble—literally and figuratively—through his presidency, while his inner circle and media allies insisted everything was just fine. Any attempt to question his physical or mental decline was met with accusations of “ageism” or dismissed as wild conspiracy talk. This, from the same Democrats who once obsessed over Donald Trump’s mental fitness, but spent most of Biden’s term parroting absurd claims that he was “sharp as a tack,” “a beast,” or “running circles around his staff.”… Continue reading
(Stephen Green – PJ Media) FBI director Kash Patel told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo Sunday night that he reviewed the entire Jeffrey Epstein case file and concluded that the notorious sex trafficker “killed himself” and that “there’s no evidence in the case file suggesting otherwise.”
“As someone who has worked as a public defender, as a prosecutor who’s been in that prison system, who’s been in the Metropolitan Detention Center, who’s been in segregated housing, you know a suicide when you see one, and that’s what that was,” Patel said to Bartiromo. Continue reading
(Jeff Charles – Townhall) The US Supreme Court has lifted an injunction against its effort to revoke legal status for over 500,000 migrants who were part of the Biden-era CHNV program.
This ruling is another victory for the Trump administration’s efforts to curb illegal immigration. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson was the only judge to dissent.
The Supreme Court has sided with the Trump administration (8-1 with Jackson dissenting) to stay an injunction from the lower court blocking the March cancellation of parole for migrants under the Biden administration’s CHNV program. Continue reading
“The real tragedy isn’t that Coates is just wrong—it’s that he’s confidently, proudly, and unforgivably wrong, leading these people down a path of spiritual ruin.”
(The Dissenter) Delman Coates, the senior pastor of Mt. Ennon Baptist Church, recently delivered a sermon that could only be described as theological arson. Coates didn’t just bend the truth—he violently assaulted it, dragged it into a dark alley, and left it bleeding. He essentially raped the text of Scripture to accommodate his progressive ideology. Continue reading
(Chris Queen – PJ Media) Welcome back to another tour of the craziness that is progressive Christianity. Sometimes, I approach these columns with a theme in mind, but that wasn’t my plan this week. It wasn’t until I finished compiling these examples that I realized that there was a theme, and it’s that progressive churches will preach anything but the gospel.
Let’s start with a doozy. My friend and colleague Sarah Anderson sent me a post on X featuring a woman pastor (shocker) with sort of a mohawk (bonus) spouting a bunch of left-wing clichés that start with “I’m a pastor…” Continue reading
“Along with emailing Protestia under a pseudonym requesting that we look into some issues relating to John MacArthur and The Master’s Seminary, The Roys Report has revealed that he also contacted them under the name “Tom Smith” with allegations of financial misconduct potentially totaling $1.1M.”
(Protestia) Former G3 President and disqualified elder of Pray Mills Baptist Church, Josh Buice, sent an anonymous tip to news organization The Roys Report, accusing Voddie Baucham of using a ghostwriter to write his book ‘Fault Lines’ and misappropriating over a million dollars in GoFundMe donations. Continue reading
“FACT-O-RAMA! The phrase “86” was code to vacate the speakeasy at 86 Bedford in NYC. A cop on the take would hear they were about to be raided and would call the joint and say “86” and they knew to 23 Skidddo.” – Kevin Downey JR.
(Victoria Taft – PJ Media) It doesn’t get much more desperate and deranged than this. A former FBI director appears to have called for the assassination of the current president of the United States, Donald Trump. At least that looks like the message being telegraphed by the nation’s former top lawman on his social media accounts. Continue reading
“The outlet’s release of the audio comes after the Biden administration refused to release the recordings of Biden’s interview with Hur. As Breitbart News previously reported, in May 2024, Biden invoked executive privilege to block a subpoena from House Republicans seeking to obtain audio recordings of his interview with Hur.”
(Elizabeth Weibel – Breitbart) Newly released audio from Axios reveals that former President Joe Biden struggled with his memory during an interview with then-special counsel Robert Hur. Continue reading
(Jeff Charles – Townhall) The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) will no longer recommend the COVID-19 vaccine to minors and pregnant women, a significant departure from government policy during the pandemic.
The Wall Street Journal reported that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will remove the recommendations when it enacts new policies for approving vaccinations.
The exact timing of the announcement wasn’t clear, the people said, though it was expected in the coming days. Continue reading
(Robb Brunansky – The Cripplegate) God designed the church to be a foretaste of the new creation, but sadly, the church can often look more like the old creation as Christians surrender to the desires of the flesh. These problems in the church are not unique, new, or specific to a handful of churches. Rather, conflict has riddled the church from its earliest days.
The first churchwide conflict in the New Testament occurred in Acts 6. This dissension happened during an exciting time of massive growth, not during a time of difficulty or a season of stagnant ministry. With this increase, however, came a proliferation of conflict and strife…. Continue reading
