Nearly 60,000 Migrant Criminals Running Around NYC

“New York City is a sanctuary for criminals. However, NYC officials have been flying some of these illegal migrants to other states, even those that are not sanctuaries.”

(Mary Dowling) If you are wondering about the stunning reversal of Governor Kathy Hochul and, to some degree, Mayor Adams, who now wants to work with Donald Trump, wonder no more. The main reason is migrant crime. Migrant gangs and other criminals have taken over the streets.

ICE reported that there are more than 58,000 criminal aliens in the sanctuary city of New York City alone. Continue reading

Here’s How Pardoning Hunter Biden Was Really About Protecting Joe

“Why does this matter? Well, it just so happens that Hunter Biden joined the board of Ukrainian energy company Burisma in 2014. This means that Hunter’s pardon wasn’t merely about taxes or gun charges; it was about preventing exposure of the Biden crime family’s influence-peddling schemes.”

(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) Let’s be honest here. The only thing shocking about Joe Biden pardoning his son, Hunter, was the timing. He was always going to do it. I think most people, myself included, figured he’d wait until January.

Now, this pardon will cast a shadow over the final weeks of Biden’s presidency, but let’s face it: Joe likely doesn’t care. Predictably, some on the left are already applauding him, hailing it as the act of a “good father,” and so on. However, it’s time to cut through the noise. While the pardon was technically on Hunter’s behalf, it’s clear that this move was really about protecting Joe Biden himself. Continue reading

LIAR: Biden Goes Back on His Word, Pardons Idiot Son, Hunter Biden

(Scott Pinsker – PJ Media) He promised he wouldn’t do it. He swore up and down that it would never happen.

But then again, he also said that Trump was Hitler, Americans were garbage, and MAGA was an existential threat to democracy. (Also, he’s “sharp as a tack.”)

Another day, another Biden lie: It was announced on Sunday evening that President Biden would go back on his word and issue a full, unconditional pardon to his idiot kid, Hunter Biden. In his words: Continue reading

We Should Treat the Intellectual Elites Like Royalty

“Present-day central planners seek to rule over more than 8 billion people. Only now, instead of justifying empire-building under the guise of “spreading Christianity,” “Manifest Destiny” or “making the world safe for democracy,” they’re importing millions upon millions of people from poor nations to remediate “systemic racism,” produce “decolonization” or challenge the “patriarchy.” In the name of “climate change,” they demand control over agriculture, industry, transportation and finance. Nor are their powers limited to economics; they censor, silence, prosecute and even imprison those who question their motives, their data, their conclusions, their methods.”

(Laura Hollis – The Patriot Post) Years ago, I read a book by the historian Barbara Tuchman called “Bible and Sword: England and Palestine from the Bronze Age to Balfour.” It’s worth a read for anyone wondering about the origins of the present-day conflicts in the Middle East. Continue reading

Hal Lindsey Dead At 95

“Over the years, Lindsey has been a controversial figure, with some critics challenging his interpretations and predictions.” 

(Ray Fava – Evangelical Dark Web) Hal Lindsey was an American Evangelical minister and author, best known for his interpretations of biblical prophecy concerning the end times, which ultimately did not come to fruition. Born on November 23, 1929, in Houston, Texas, Lindsey grew up in a Southern Baptist family, which laid the foundation for his eventual career in ministry and writing. Continue reading

Wökendämmerung: Walmart Cuts Ties to HRC, Dumps DEI Policies

(Ed Morrissey – Hot Air) Three weeks ago, Donald Trump recorded a smashing victory over Kamala Harris, who ran mainly on two arguments. Mainly, she claimed that Trump had disqualified himself in the aftermath of the 2020 election and that everyone owed her their vote as a result. Secondly, Harris and Democrats pushed the idea that America needed its first woman-of-color president on the basis of identity alone — because Harris certainly never made any other case for herself during the campaign. Continue reading

Love Thanksgiving? Thank Virginia.

(Sean McGowen – TruthScript) When most Americans think of the “First Thanksgiving,” they think of the Pilgrims in Plymouth who sat down for a Harvest Festival meal with the Wampanoag Indians in 1621. The Pilgrims had arrived on the Mayflower in November of 1620 and nearly a year later celebrated the abundance of provisions that God had provided. The Thanksgiving tradition recalls to memory Indians like Squanto (1580–1622) and Englishmen like William Bradford (1590–1657), who was elected governor in early 1621. Many American Christians love to quote the words of Governor Bradford in his “Thanksgiving Proclamation” made three years after the Pilgrims settled in Plymouth, where he proclaimed that all Pilgrim families were to gather on November 29, 1623, to hear from their minister and give thanks to Almighty God. Thus, when Americans think of Thanksgiving, they think of Massachusetts and the Pilgrims. Continue reading

Chief of Staff: Susie Wiles

Deputy Chief of Staff: Dan Scavino

Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy: Stephen Miller

How the Left plans to defeat President-elect Trump’s agenda

“You are now starting to see spots of messaging of how they plan to challenge the agenda of President-elect Trump. Last week, one-term House Member Wiley Nickel (D-NC-13), in what can only be described as a Democrat fever dream, proposed a “shadow cabinet” which appears to be either a desperate attempt to retain power or secure his place as a talking head on whatever is left of mainstream media.” 

(Ami Sanchez – Human Events) The Left seems quiet right now – a little too quiet. They are working, busy as ever, organizing to defeat the policy agenda of President-elect Donald Trump once he takes office. Continue reading

Holy smokes—Trump just announced two earth-shattering moves before even stepping foot in office…

“President Trump is willing and ready to deal a crushing blow to these two disloyal “allies” on our borders. Make no mistake, this move will crush both of their economies…”

(Revolver) President Trump is serious about getting down to business, and he’s not waiting for Day One. He’s getting going nearly two full months before Day One with the announcement of two sets of tariffs, one against China and the other against Mexico and Canada.

President Trump first announced the move against Canada and Mexico on Truth Social. Continue reading

Pop Your Popcorn: It’s Time for Elon Musk Vs. Planned Parenthood

(Sarah Anderson – PJ Media) Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy have been making lots of new friends and enemies lately, as President-elect Donald Trump tapped the two businessmen to head the newly formed Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). To the delight of conservatives and pro-life people around the country, the latest on that enemies list is none other than Planned Parenthood.

In an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal published last week, Musk and Ramaswamy pointed out that “DOGE will help end federal overspending by taking aim at the $500 billion-plus in annual federal expenditures that are unauthorized by Congress or being used in ways that Congress never intended.”… Continue reading

Who Will Replace Wray at the FBI?

“Nearly four years hence, the FBI’s failure to identify the person who planted those pipe bombs at both the Democrat and Republican Party headquarters in one of the most heavily surveilled areas in the entire world, even though the bureau released video footage of the suspect sitting on a bench in front of the DNC while using his cellphone, is, shall we say, deeply mysterious.”

(Douglas Andrews – The Patriot Post) “Just spoke to President Trump regarding Mike Rogers going to the FBI. It’s not happening — In his own words, ‘I have never even given it a thought.’ Not happening.”

So said Trump Senior Advisor Dan Scavino on Friday in response to a question about who’d fill one of the leading posts for which the president-elect has yet to announce a nominee: FBI director…. Continue reading

Losing a Pet and Glorifying God

“If you have a pet, be reminded that your pet is a gift, and worship the Giver of that gift. If you have recently lost a pet… not only did God take your pet at His appointed time, but He did so for a particular reason. Praise the Lord for His kindness, in giving you an undeserved gift.”

(Henry Anderson – The Cripplegate) My wife and I got a Basset Hound shortly after we got married, around nine years ago. He was a floppy-eared, droopy-eyed, ball of joy. When looking at the litter, we chose the most rambunctious, outgoing little puppy. We named him… Maverick. Not only did the meaning of the name suit him at first glance, but he grew into and filled out that name more than we could ever have expected. Continue reading

Discerning Dietrich Bonhoeffer

(Ray Fava – Evangelical Dark Web) The Angel Studios distributed film, Bonhoeffer: Pastor Spy Assassin is being marketed as a faith-based film by several figures in rightwing media and Evangelicalism. Similar to Sound of Freedom, Angel Studios is trying to sell movie tickets that will not be realized to inflate the box office performance. But where Sound of Freedom tells a story highlighting the disgusting underbelly of human trafficking, Bonhoeffer is yet another WWII movie, but one that celebrates a teacher who lacked sound doctrine and practice. The movie is a romanticized version of the life of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and every clip Angel Studios has promoted features horrendous acting, cartoon villains, and cheesy inspirational dialog. This is a faith-based film more than a war film, like the Tom Cruise Valkyrie movie. But it’s worth noting including “assassin” in the title of the Bonhoeffer movie completely overstates his contribution to attempts on Adolf Hitler’s life. Continue reading

Chaos at Daystar Television Network Amid Terminations, Sex Abuse Scandals, and Heresy Galore

Since its founding, Daystar has platformed the who’s who of prosperity heretics and false teachers, including Joyce Meyer, Sid Roth, Joel Osteen, Joseph Prince, Jentezen Franklin, TD Jakes, Andrew Womack, Kenneth Copeland, Creflo Dollar, Jim Bakker, and Paula White.”

(Protestia) Days ago, it was announced that Jonathan Lamb, the son of Daystar Television Network founders Marcus and Joni Lamb, had been fired from the global Christian network giant. According to Daystar, Lamb was terminated as head of the network’s cafe, facilities, and distribution department for failing to meet his performance improvement plan. Notably, one of the points of this plan included: Continue reading

Wait Until You Hear What Planned Parenthood Was Just Caught Doing

“The heavily redacted plan stated that the project would harvest fetuses from four weeks up until six months old from patients undergoing “elective surgical pregnancy termination” who are carrying viable, non-anomalous fetuses at Planned Parenthood.” 

(Sarah Arnold Townhall) The nation’s largest abortion clinic was caught selling 23-week-old aborted babies for research— the same clinic that argues they are “saving” women’s lives.  Continue reading

Stunning Testimony by Dr. Marty Makary

(Mary Dowling) This is amazing testimony from Dr. Marty Makary, a surgeon and researcher at Johns Hopkins.  He is a highly respected Johns Hopkins surgical Oncologist and Health Policy Expert. It confirms what Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has been saying for years. He might become one of your favorites among Donald Trump’s nominees. He will make you a believer.

“I’m trained in gastrointestinal surgery. My group at Johns Hopkins does more pancreatic cancer surgery than any hospital in the United States. But at no point in the last 20 years has anyone stopped to ask, why has pancreatic cancer doubled over those 20 years?” Continue reading

Diabolical: MSNBC Anyalyst Laments José Ibarra’s Fate

“MSNBC is in free fall, and to be honest, the best thing that could happen is for the network to be fire-sold with its denizens scattered to the four winds and forced to seek honest work. Either the reporters and writers have become such dead-eyed, slack-jawed, drool-faced acolytes of progressivism that they are hopelessly mired in their hatred for all things that lean right in any way that they cannot summon one ounce of compassion for Laken, her family, or anyone else who has suffered from crimes at the hands of illegals — or they are evil.” 

(Lincoln Brown – PJ Media) It’s not uncommon in this line of work to say that the legacy media “beclowns” itself. But the latest offering from MSNBC is such a horrifically tone-deaf, unbelievably narcissistic exercise in left-wing talking points that the network deserves no quarter. There are differences of opinion, and there is propaganda. Continue reading

With Matt Gaetz Gone, Establishment Media Targets Pete Hegseth, Tulsi Gabbard

(Wendell Husebo – Breitbart) Perhaps the biggest losers of Matt Gaetz’s confirmation defeat are cabinet nominees Pete Hegseth and Tulsi Gabbard.

Hegseth, nominated for defense secretary, and Gabbard, nominated for national intelligence director, now appear to be the main targets of the establishment media from among President-elect Donald Trump’s nominees.

The media will endlessly report on the alleged dangers of their nominations after successfully helping to defeat Gaetz from consideration for attorney general. Continue reading

Righteous Fury – And Why Not Being Angry Is Sometimes A Sin

“…Christians may do well to remember that although we trust a sovereign God with every outcome in such times, we are still called to love the things that God loves and hate those things which God hates. This is not denying God’s sovereignty, it is the enthusiastic affirmation of that sovereignty.” 

(Josh Howard – Clear Truth Media) Anger is not a sin. At least, anger isn’t necessarily a sin. Like many other things, sin can easily creep into the situation and cause anger to become a sinful passion, but anger by itself is not necessarily a sinful response. So a Christian might find a situation where they can be angry, and yet without sin. But further still, there are certain times when a Christian not only can be angry, they should be angry. Sometimes when a Christian lacks anger, that lack of anger can itself be a sinful response. Continue reading

Was Trump Doing His 4-D Chess Thing With His Attorney General Picks?

“Given Pam Bondi’s close personal and professional relationship with Donald Trump, why wasn’t she his first choice? Since we’re having fun with the 4-D chess idea, we have to wonder if the plan always was to eventually have her be the nominee.” 

(Stephen Kruiser – PJ Media) We’re going to have some quick fun today.

There’s been an ongoing joke since the beginning of Donald Trump’s first term in office. It was popular with both his detractors and supporters alike, for different reasons…. Continue reading

Bill O’Reilly reveals inside scoop on what’s really happening to MSNBC and The View, and it’s about time…

“Word on the street is that massive layoffs are looming over at CNN. But the real shocker is what’s happening behind the scenes at MSNBC and The View. According to Bill O’Reilly, there are some very sneaky moves underway to pull these shows off the air, as they continue to drag down NBC News and ABC News like anchors on a sinking ship.”

(Revolver) There’s a lot up in the air right now about what will unfold after the biggest and most historic election of our lifetime. One thing we know for certain is that President Trump is assembling the ultimate America First team, but we also know the Deep State will stop at nothing to stand in his way. This is truly a battle of good versus evil, and our fight is just getting started. Continue reading

The Deity of Christ and the Sovereignty of God

 

30 “I and the Father are one.” (John 10:30 translated from the NA28 Greek text)

I read the following paragraph from one of my devotions the other day:

Visible disunity in the church is the worst it has ever been, but we must take care not to think that God’s people were once fully and visibly united on all matters of Christian living. Christians may have the Holy Spirit, but they are not free from sin in this life, and living in community with other believers always leads to disagreements…Continue reading

Why the Deep State is afraid of Matt Gaetz

UPDATE BELOW

“Barack Hussein Obama would not have been elected president if he had been subjected to the CARL test. But members of Congress also evade the security clearance process.”

(Cliff Kincaid – RenewAmerica) I have examined the reports about the sex charges against President Trump’s nominee for attorney General, Matt Gaetz, and can find no proof. In fact, Biden’s DOJ and FBI never charged him with a sex crime. Senator Tommy Tuberville says, “Prove he’s a criminal,” otherwise confirm him to the job. There is no proof. So we are left to conclude that the charges are a smokescreen to derail his nomination because he has been such a vociferous critic of the DOJ and the FBI. Continue reading
