(Protestia) When arch-heretic Kenneth Copeland is not giving false prophecies about COVID being destroyed, throwing someone in a wheelchair to the floor, casting away bald spots in Jesus name, or even running his own bizzaro Bible college, the world’s richest prosperity preacher in America can be frequently found making up stuff about Jesus and justifying his personal theological idiosyncrasies in order to increase his net worth, this time with a viral video going around showing him drinking his own blood in some bizarre communion rite.

Watch ‘The Fall of Minneapolis’ – What Really Happened to George Floyd
“One revelation in the film that is astonishing is that the restraint he used, holding Floyd down with his knee was an accepted practice the police were trained in. Everyone lied about that.”
(Mary Dowling) The film, The Fall of Minneapolis shows footage that was kept from the public for nearly 2 1/2 months. [Watch the full movie at the end] It’s something that never happened before in a major case. In the body camera footage, you clearly hear and see George Floyd talking about how we can’t breathe long before Derek Chauvin arrives on the scene. Continue reading
BREAKING: Israel, Hamas Strike a Hostage Deal — Here are the Details
(Katie Pavlich – Townhall) After more than eight hours of deliberations, the Israeli government officially agreed to a ceasefire with Hamas Tuesday night in exchange for 50 hostages who were kidnapped by the terrorist organization and taken to the Gaza Strip on October 7. The rest of the 186 hostages held by Hamas and other Islamic terrorist groups will not be released. The public now has the option to appeal the government decision to the Israeli Supreme Court. Ten Americans are among the hostages. It is unclear if they will be released in this deal.
A statement from the Israeli government: Continue reading
Good News Study on Global Warming the Media Buries
“Trees are getting bigger because of carbon dioxide in the air, which will also help reduce global warming. Trees in the US are growing 1% bigger every year, partly due to fertilizer which the Left wants to ban.”
(Mary Dowling) A new study, an actual scientific study, found that plants will absorb 20 percent more carbon dioxide than predicted by the end of the century. This strongly suggests climate models are overestimating how fast the planet will warm. Continue reading
Can We Save our Universities?
“Since when did such student guests in the United States feel empowered to shut down bridges during commute hours, tear down American flags on Veterans Day, and scout out and hunt-down Jewish-Americans on campus?”
(Victor Davis Hanson – American Greatness) It took the widely reported, repellent, and exempt wave of anti-Semitism and violent pro-Hamas protestors harassing Jews, finally to convince Americans that their own hallmark universities are illiberal centers of mediocrity and intolerance—and increasingly unsafe. Continue reading
Harvard Med School Course Allows Students to Help with Trans Procedures
(Katherine Hamilton – Breitbart) Harvard Medical School students are allowed to participate in transgender procedures in a course available in the fall of 2023 and spring of 2024, The College Fix reported.
The four-week elective course is called “Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.” The course description states that the “heavy-case load” [sic] at BIDMC (Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center) gives students the “opportunity to participate in procedures that span the entire specialty including hand surgery, breast reconstruction, microsurgery, craniofacial surgery, lymphatic surgery, orthoplastic surgery, gender affirming surgery, and cosmetic surgery.” [emphasis added] Continue reading
Elon Musk Just Detonated His ‘Thermonuclear’ Lawsuit
(Victoria Taft – PJ Media) Billionaire Elon Musk warned conservative media assassin Media Matters for America (MMFA) he’d sue the “news” outlet for not just lying about his Twitter/X platform, but for the mendacious way the George Soros-bankrolled website manipulated data to depict it as a racist outlet that is a “risky and unsafe platform for advertisers.” On Friday, Musk issued the threat to go “thermonuclear” on the outlet and “their board, their donors, their network of dark money, all of them,” and by Monday afternoon had detonated a 15-page lawsuit filed in Texas federal court (read it below).

His Kindness Leads Us to Repentance
“Every one of us ought to read the woes against the pharisees and tremble as we recognize that the judgment pronounced on them we also ought to face.”
(Josh Rieger) The Great Sequoias are one of the most majestic things on earth. They grow to enormous sizes. They live for millennia. But as amazing as they are, they require fire to reproduce. Apart from forest fires their cones won’t open and release the seedlings, the ground won’t be clear from underbrush and leaves for the seeds to germinate in the soil, and light and water will not be able to reach the forest floor to give them the proper conditions to grow. Continue reading
Argentina’s New President Is Trump…on Steroids
(Matt Vespa – PJ Media) Is populism dead? It depends on who you ask. In Argentina, right-wing populism thrives after nearly two decades of left-wing Peronism, leading to two lost economic decades. A whopping forty percent of the population now lives in poverty, the peso has collapsed, and inflation is sky-high. Does this sound familiar? In a country dominated by the Kirchners, it’s quite a slap in the face to the nation’s political class that Javier Milei is the new president. It’s much like Trump’s 2016 win, a rejection of eight years under Obama. Continue reading
The J6 Daddy-Issues Fascists Are Terrified They’re About to Be Exposed
The two execrable Republicans who were integral to the charade — “Adam Kinzinger and Liz Cheney — are no longer members of Congress, but they’re still skittish about being found out. Sen. Mike Lee from Utah is interested in officially exploring the committee’s selective editing…”
(Stephen Kruiser – PJ Media) Well, they’re back in the news, and they’re as irritating as ever.
The House Soviet Select Committee on Daddy Issues, also known as the J6 Committee, has come under some long-overdue scrutiny, courtesy of Speaker of the House Mike Johnson…. Continue reading
Tennessee Town that Banned ‘Public Displays of Gayness’ Walk it Back After Lawsuit
(Protestia) In late June of this year, residents of Murfreesboro in Tennessee passed an ordinance that critics say banned all public displays of homosexuality. At the time city officials were particularly concerned about banning Pride parades after last year’s festivities saw marchers in various stages of undress, and a “family-friendly” drag show saw the performer twerking and acting out sexually in front of children- something LGBTQ love seeing, but normal folks despise.
The city of 157,000 banned “indecent behavior” and “that (which) may be judged as … harmful to minors,” which includes “indecent exposure, public indecency, lewd behavior, nudity or sexual conduct.”… Continue reading
BREAKING: Speaker Johnson Releases J6 Footage, and the Left Is Gonna Flip Out
(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) Moments ago, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) publicly released footage from the events of Jan. 6, 2021.
“To restore America’s trust and faith in their Government we must have transparency,” Johnson said in a post on Twitter. “This is another step towards keeping the promises I made when I was elected to be your Speaker.”
Johnson provided a link that will be continuously updated “with thousands of hours of footage.” Continue reading
What the Media Aren’t Telling You About a Trans Mayor’s Suicide
Graphic language warning toward the end
“Aside from wearing plus-sized women’s clothes and undergarments, the mayor authored violent erotica fantasizing about murdering a female constituent—a real-life resident living in Copeland’s community—and assuming the victim’s identity.”
(Mia Cathell – Townhall) “Transgender rights” activists and the LGBTQ-allied mainstream media are mourning the horrific death of a crossdressing Alabama mayor who committed suicide with a handgun after a conservative news site “involuntarily outed” the transsexual politician.
Fred L. “Bubba” Copeland, the Republican mayor of small-town Smiths Station, died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound during a welfare check that reportedly turned into a slow-chase police pursuit. Copeland killed himself on November 3, two days after the publication of an exposé by 1819 News, the brainchild of right-wing think tank Alabama Policy Institute, that unmasked the middle-aged mayor’s double life he secretly lived as a closeted “transgender curvy girl” in the midst of “transitioning.” Continue reading
The Shocking Truth About Climate Change
(Mary Dowling) We came to the point where we think that we’re going to prevent bad weather by eliminating fossil fuels. It’s just about the most nonsensical, illogical thing that I can imagine, and the whole world is caught up in this nonsense. ~ Climatologist, Judith Curry
In the interview below with John Stossel, climatologist Judith Curry explores the origins and problems with Climate Change as it exists today.
She notes that the IPCC’s role in climate change goes back to the 1980s, and the UN environmental program had this big environmental, anti-capitalism agenda. They hated the oil companies and seized on the climate change issue as one to move their policies along. Continue reading
Timothy Keller: Human Reason vs. Biblical Authority
“God’s true children must rely upon Biblical authority in their presentations of the gospel of Christ. They must reject the popular methodologies recommended by popular leaders like Timothy Keller. The sinfulness of sinners prevents their response to mere humanistic attempts of reason and marketing of benefits. Sinners stand separated from God by their sin, spiritually dead, and condemned under God’s judgment, the real reason they need Christ. He alone saves sinners and reconciles them to God.”
(Tom Horn) “We live in a post-modern world, and postmodernism is about relativism. My truth is your falsehood, and your falsehood is my truth. But there is such a thing as the plain truth.” (Barukh Binah)
Barukh Binah captured succinctly one of the pillars of postmodernism, the suspicion of truth. Current culture proclaims the death of objective truth in accord with postmodernism. Thus, no one can refer to an external source for truth nor claim that (s)he possesses it. It does not exist. Continue reading
Buddha & Jesus are ‘Great Healers’? More Blasphemy From the Pope As Rome and Buddhist Join Forces
(Magdalene Henah) The Vatican continues leaving a trail of bad theology and ecumenism in its wake, with The Dicastery for Interreligious Dialogue releasing a joint statement with the Mahama Kut Buddhist University, Chinese Buddhist Order of Sangha in Thailand, and others, on a recently held Buddhist-Christian Colloquium.
As Buddhists and Christians, we see the Buddha and Jesus as Great Healers. The Buddha pointed to greed and Jesus to sin as the cause of suffering. On many levels, Jesus and the Buddha proposed love and compassion as medicine to drive out the darkness in the human heart and the world. Nourished by their respective spiritual teachings, Buddhists and Christians, for thousands of years, have adopted compassionate ways of living to address the suffering of life. Continue reading
Untwisting the Bible, Part IX: Will a Man Rob God? – Malachi 3:8
(The Dissenter) “Will man rob God? Yet you are robbing me.” Malachi 3:8—a verse so frequently plucked from its Old Testament habitat and transplanted into the fertile soil of modern-day sermons, especially when the collection plate seems a little light. It’s become the go-to verse for proponents of “first fruits tithing,” a doctrine that, while superficially sounding spiritually rigorous, crumbles under the slightest scriptural scrutiny. Let’s untwist this verse and see what it truly tells us about tithing, giving, and the nature of our relationship with God under the New Covenant. Continue reading
Ben Shapiro and Candace Owens ‘Destroy’ Each Other Over the Use of Scripture, But Who is Right?
(Protestia) Daily Wire hosts Ben Shapiro and Candace Owens have brought their simmering feud to the public, seeking to ‘destroy’ each other over a couple of posts that have scripture as their center.
Ever since Hamas murdered 1200 Israelis and kidnapped hundreds more, Shapiro, an orthodox Jew, has been raging about the terroristic attacks, both against the perpetrators and those who are giving them cover. He, like many in Israel, views the actions against the country as an existential threat that will only be mitigated by Hamas being decisively dismantled. Any collateral damage to civilian life, though seeking to be minimized, is the fault of Hamas, and responsibility must be laid there. Continue reading
You May Not Want to Fly in a Plane for a While After Reading This
(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) Well, this isn’t very comforting. A team of aviation analysts called the National Airspace System (NAS) Safety Review Team (SRT), scrutinized the safety records of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and essentially hit the panic button over a surge in “serious close calls” between planes. Without more staffing, equipment, and better technology, the situation is only going to get worse, the analysts said.
The six-member group, headed by former FAA Administrator Michael Huerta, released a 52-page report on Wednesday, that is a shocking wake-up call as to just how much we take our safety for granted when we fly. Continue reading
Pro-Palestinian Protesters Clash with Police Outside DNC, Arrests Made
(Paul Bois – Breitbart) Several arrests have been made outside the DNC offices in Washington, DC, where pro-Palestinian protesters violently clashed with police on Wednesday.
“U.S. Capitol Police said they were making arrests at a pro-Palestinian protest on Wednesday night in Southeast D.C.,” noted NBC Washington.
“The protesters had gathered outside of the headquarters of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) just south of the Capitol before authorities said several dozen demonstrators got into a shoving match with officers,” it added. Continue reading
Women are starting to take their sports back. Here are two examples from this week.
Transgender weightlifter Mary Gregory
“It’s no exaggeration to say that this man could easily kill her. But the organizers of the event didn’t care. They were ready to trot out any woman this dude could beat up in the ring.”
(Harriet Rigby – Not the Bee) I usually don’t promote quitting, but when a female is matched up in sport against a trans-identifying male opponent, well, I’m all for it. And that’s exactly what happened in Wales over the weekend at the English Pool Association’s 2023 Champion of Champions.
Female pool player Lynne Finches walked away from the game after realizing the woman she was facing was clearly a man. (See the photos on the site.) Continue reading
In 2016, the US Government Decided to End Free Speech
“The one thing he doesn’t mention is Obama-led alterations to the Smith Mundt Act that now allows the government to spread propaganda in the media. 2016 that’s a good set of circumstances for the government. Donald Trump is new to all of it, and Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell are worthless.”
(Mary Dowling) The executive director of FFO Freedom, Mike Benz, explains in this clip how The US government decided in 2016 to end free speech on the Internet.
Mike Benz answers the question: Was the 2016 election a critical tipping point of Internet free speech?
“Oh, absolutely, yeah. There were three things that happened in 2016. Continue reading
‘Precise and Targeted’: Israeli Forces Storm Hamas Headquarters in Gaza City
(Matt Vespa – Townhall) Israeli forces were seen displaying their flag proudly in the captured parliament chamber of Hamas. They’ve also been giving extensive tours of the weapons caches and rocket sites used by the terror group; unsurprisingly, many were civilian facilities, like children’s schools. Hamas has done this for years, but their grip on Gaza is being methodically chipped away. As of now, they’ve lost control of Northern Gaza.
The remaining Hamas terrorists in Gaza City have nowhere to go…. Continue reading
‘March for Israel’ Breaks Record; Largest Pro-Israel Rally in U.S. History
“Left-wing CNN analyst Van Jones — once an icon on the same “progressive” left that now opposes Israel — spoke, as did conservative pastor [heretic] John Hagee.”
(Joel B. Pollack – Breitbart) Tuesday’s “March for Israel” on the National Mall in Washington, DC, reached an estimated total of 290,000 participants — three times what organizers had expected and the largest pro-Israel gathering in U.S. history.
The rally was larger than similar events to support Israel during the terror of the second Palestinian intifada in 2002, and a rally to support Soviet Jews trying to leave the USSR in 1987. Continue reading
Sometimes, No Amount of Evidence is Enough
“This seems to be what Jesus is talking about when he speaks about casting our pearls before swine. It’s certainly what he did with the Pharisees, when he reached a point where he insisted they would get no further signs from him nor would he even bother answering their questions anymore.”
(Stephen Kneal) It is not uncommon, nor unreasonable, for people to ask us for evidence of why we believe in Jesus. It is perfectly right and proper to give people a reason for the hope that is in us. Indeed, not only reasonable, but something the Bible demands. God condescends to reason with us (cf. Isaiah 1:18) and calls us to reason with others (cf. 1 Peter 3:15). It is good, right and proper to offer genuine reasons to believe. Continue reading
