“Perhaps we should just let the “defund police” lunatics have their way so they can see what that’s like on the other side.”
(Stephen Kruiser – PJ Media) The protest/riot/no social-distancing get-togethers in Democratic enclaves around what I think used to be the United States of America don’t seem like they want to let up any time soon. Police are bad. White people are bad. Heaven help you if you’re a white cop. It’s a mess out there. Continue reading
“Progressives started by taking over the school system. That was their launchpad, that’s where the conservative counterattack has to begin. Understand the phony substitutes and then eliminate them one by one. Bring back proven traditional methods. Schools should once again be educational enterprises, not social engineering boondoggles. That’s how we take back the public schools and then the country.”
(Bruce Deitrick Price – Renew America) May 19, political pundit Dave Rubin appeared on the Buck Sexton Show to talk about his New York Times bestseller Don’t Burn This Book. Continue reading
“The adults most likely to rely upon a religious resource — usually the Bible — were those aligned with either an evangelical church (58%) or Pentecostal church (62%),” the report states. “People associated with a mainline Protestant congregation were most likely to rely upon themselves for moral wisdom (34%). Catholics were most likely to turn to other people (34%).”
(Heather Clark – Christian News) The sixth installation of the nationwide “American Worldview” survey conducted by Dr. George Barna and the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University found that 61 percent of respondents said they look to themselves or other people when making moral decisions. Less than one third said that they look to the Bible. Continue reading
Beijing has warned European nations that if their independent media continued to condemn China, there could be commercial retaliation. A few European journalists still exposed Chinese deceit, even as shaken EU leaders backtracked and tried to contextualize Chinese misbehavior.
(Victor Davis Hanson) George Floyd was killed in Minneapolis last week when a police officer used brutally excessive force to arrest him. It was the latest in a string of high-profile cases nationwide in which citizens, most of them African Americans, died from reckless police force. Once again, protests over police brutality turned violent and rioting ensued. Continue reading
Just when you think that there couldn’t be anything more annoying than watching idiots kneel all about the place comes a post on NPR.org titled “Your Bookshelf May Be Part of the Problem.”
(Stephen Kruiser – PJ Media) Well, Ray Bradbury warned us, didn’t he? Or he tried to, anyway.
As this once great land descends even further into this “check your privilege” wokescold madness, the lawless not only want to govern your actions but your thoughts as well. What so many are hailing as a transformative moment in American history is really a dystopian thought-policing nightmare. Continue reading
(OneNewsNow) When addressing the social upheaval resulting from Minneapolis white police officer Derek Chauvin killing George Floyd during a routine arrest by unnecessarily applying his knee on the African American’s neck, Fox News’ Sean Hannity commented on how the left wants to do away with police and form armed bands of citizens instead.
The conservative host of The Sean Hannity Show was referring to the Washington Examiner Chief Political Correspondent Byron York, who anticipated via social media the left’s next move in the racial tensions caused by Floyd’s tragic death. Continue reading
The idea that the media inflated or exaggerated the pandemic fears to justify a lockdown for social engineering purposes may seem monstrous to those whose modest jobs and small businesses were lost, but like a spouse walking in on flagrante delict what else are they to think? “Honey, I can explain why we locked down the jobs and churches and visits to nursing homes but not antifa. It’s not what it looks like!”
(Richard Fernandez – PJ Media) Megan McArdle fears that public health officials’ endorsement of mass demonstrations to support Black Lives Matter has destroyed their credibility to order lockdowns in the future. Continue reading
“Let’s all pretend that hairdressers who open their businesses in defiance of ukases masquerading as laws deserve jail time but activists who pillage businesses in defiance of law and lockdowns deserve the get-out-of-jail-free card awarded them by bail reform.”
(Daniel J. Flynn – The American Spectator) Let’s all pretend a Republican now serves as mayor of Minneapolis rather than for one day out of the last 59 years. Continue reading
“Beth Moore says that she believes that America is facing a “reckoning” from God because America has used God and the Bible to sin.”
(Jeff Maples – Reformation Charlotte) Moore began her career as a small-group women’s Bible-study teacher. Fair enough, though the Bible says that women should remain silent in Church, no sane-minded Southern Baptist would have argued in favor of women preachers, especially those who teach men until recently…. Continue reading
The visceral hatred of the “Resistance” toward the president has shifted to the hatred of the 63 million who voted for America’s 45th, and the hatred won’t stop until they get their way.
(Judi McLeod) June 2, 2020: Americans woke up this morning following the seventh consecutive night of looting, rioting; injured citizens and injured police officers trying to protect the wanton destruction of small businesses, including some of those operated by minorities—all media-described as “unrest”.
But it is not “unrest” that Americans are waking up to this morning but galvanized “insurrection”—an organized and orchestrated insurrection at that. Continue reading
“Many public health experts have already severely undermined the power and influence of their prior message. We were exposed to continuous daily Covid death counts, and infections/deaths were presented as preeminent concerns compared to all other considerations—until nine days ago,” he added.“Overnight, behaviors seen as dangerous and immoral seemingly became permissible due to a ‘greater need.”
(Dan Diamond – Politico) For months, public health experts have urged Americans to take every precaution to stop the spread of Covid-19—stay at home, steer clear of friends and extended family, and absolutely avoid large gatherings. Continue reading
Rod Dreher of The American Conservative wrote a post titled “The iPad Thieves,” which began with video of a Muslim-immigrant-owned computer store in Minneapolis being looted…before concluding with a look at the riots and looting in Manhattan. Dreher concluded, “When I moved to New York City in 1998, it was so, so common to hear people say that Rudy Giuliani, who had been elected in 1994, had made such a difference in the life of the city. ‘You can’t imagine what it was like before,’ they would say. That was a long time ago. Now, it’s back to the 1980s.”
(Ed Driscoll – PJ Media) The June issue of Commentary, likely assembled in early-to-mid-May, contained an article written by John Podhoretz and illustrated by Daniel Rose headlined “The Empty City.”… Continue reading
Lentz proudly posted the video, taken by his daughter, on Instagram. Note that he calls the insane and ineffectual, hysterical ranting “preaching.”
(PNP) The hipster Hillsong pastor in New York City, Carl Lentz, is helping to contribute to the delinquency of his daughter by letting her take part in mob behavior and verbal assaults against the police. Continue reading
“On Sunday, as American cities were burning and looters were rampaging through the streets, Lemon implored America, “Open your eyes. We are teetering on a dictatorship.” He didn’t mean a dictatorship of the mob, which would have actually made sense given the facts. No, for Lemon and his CNN colleagues the real threat is Trump, who had the audacity to declare that if mayors and governors couldn’t get their cities under control, he would.”
(John Daniel Davidson – The Federalist) It seems no great event or upheaval in our national life can pass now without the media lying to our faces about it. Continue reading
“As Heather Mac Donald relates in an insightful Wall Street Journal op-ed, blacks make up only a quarter of the total number of people killed in police shootings annually, a ratio that has held steady since 2015. The reigning canard, however, is that this 25 percent figure proves racism since African Americans make up just 13 percent of the U.S. population.”
(Andrew McCarthy – National Review) About twice as many white people as black people are killed by police. In fact, in about 75 percent of police shootings, the decedent is not black.
Of course, that is not what you would grasp from consuming media. Continue reading
“Universities celebrate non-Western authors who attack Western Civilization. Throughout the latter part of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century, the toast of universities, the recognized king of the new anti-American truth, was Edward Said, an immigrant from Egypt who claimed Palestinian ethnicity. Raised to a professorship at one of America’s elite universities, he used his platform to vilify Western Civilization.”
(PJ Media – Philip Carl Salzman) Behind the anti-American hate seen in the current rioting, arson, and looting is the long term undermining of America carried out systematically in our universities…. Continue reading
“Brian Simmons– What about the clouds? Jesus is coming, Greek is meta nephele, He’s coming, meta nephele, within clouds. He’s coming within clouds. Not on clouds. Within clouds. Eight times in the Bible, CLOUDS ARE PEOPLE.”
(John Lanagan – The World Like Fire) An appalling and horrible thing has happened in the land: The prophets prophesy falsely, And the priests rule on their own authority; And my people love it so! But what will you do at the end of it? (Jeremiah 5:30) Continue reading
“Turn off CNN and tune into the facts on the ground. At least 25 Philadelphia cops have been hurt during mob violence this week. It’s an all-out war on the thin blue line. At least 150 cops have been assaulted — four nearly murdered — in New York City as of Tuesday afternoon. Two Buffalo, New York, law enforcement officers were run over late Monday night. In addition, 51 members of the U.S. Park Police were injured; a Cincinnati cop was grazed by a bullet aimed at his head…”

Dear law-abiding Americans:
You have done nothing wrong. Continue reading
“At this point, it’s safe to conclude that this organization should be written off as a dangerous anti-Christian movement with no ties to biblical fidelity and should be purged from the ranks of Christendom. Instead, this organization and its contributors are proudly paraded through the professing Church on platforms like The Gospel Coalition and given a voice on Southern Baptist platforms through the ERLC.”
(Jeff Maples – Reformation Charlotte) It’s no secret that the woke social justice movement isn’t actually about racial reconciliation, but a progressive agenda designed to overturn civilized society, wreak havoc, and institute an economic and political system that has exchanged Constitutional freedoms built upon a theistic worldview for a godless system built on the combined secular ideologies of revolutionaries like Stalin, Lenin, and Marx…. Continue reading
“Americans are loving people, but they’ve had enough. They had enough of lockdowns and now they’ve had enough of lootings. It’s time to defend our founding principles, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. We do this with respect for our fellow man, with our love of God, and our belief in the inherent goodness of mankind…”
(CNS News) Fox News’s Laura Ingraham lives in Washington, D.C., and on Sunday night, she said she witnessed some of the rioting, including the arson at the historic St. John’s church. Continue reading
The four dissenting justices…said the California restrictions were clearly discriminatory. The dissenting opinion noted, “In response to the COVID–19 health crisis, California has now limited attendance at religious worship services to 25% of building capacity or 100 attendees, whichever is lower. The basic constitutional problem is that comparable secular businesses are not subject to a 25% occupancy cap, including factories, offices, supermarkets, restaurants, retail stores, pharmacies, shopping malls, pet grooming shops, bookstores, florists, hair salons, and cannabis dispensaries.”
(Cliff Kincaid – Renew America) With all that’s happening in the United States and the world, you may have missed the ruling from our “conservative” Supreme Court on May 29…. Continue reading
“The statistics don’t lie. Black women are only 13% of the female population in the United States but make up 35% of aborting mothers. In the inner city, up to half of the black babies conceived are killed by largely white abortion doctors who pump millions of dollars into advertising their services in black media publications.”
(PNP) As lawless criminals dishonor the memory of George Floyd be victimizing innocent people and terrorizing whole cities, arsonists have had a field day setting buildings across the inner cities ablaze…. Continue reading
“The transcripts released Friday establish that, contrary to the special counsel office’s attestation, Flynn never asked the Russian ambassador to “not escalate the situation and only respond to the U.S. Sanctions in a reciprocal manner.” In fact, Flynn never raised the “U.S. Sanctions” — defined by the special counsel’s office as the sanctions announced by Obama Dec. 28, 2016, in Executive Order 13757 — with the Russian ambassador at all.”
(Margo Cleveland – The Federalist) Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s office deceived the country and a federal court about former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn’s late-December 2016 conversations with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak…. Continue reading
“The Lord’s Supper, like baptism, is not a private event. It’s public and is one of the two ordinances given to God’s Church. In 1 Corinthians 10:17, Paul writes these words, “Because there is one bread, we who are many are one body, for we all partake of the one bread.” The church publicly gathered in the presence of one another are called to be served together from the same bread—indicating their unity in Christ. This cannot be accomplished as a pastor looks at a camera and gives directions to people in their homes. The assembly of God’s people is necessitated in order to fulfill God’s plan for the Lord’s Supper.”
(Josh Buice – Delivered By Grace) One of the most intimate services we will hold until we dwell in the presence of our God in eternity is the Lord’s Supper. It points us to the body and blood of Jesus which unites us together in love and directs our attention to the promise of Jesus’ triumphant return when our King shall descend in glory. So, what about COVID-19 communion? Continue reading
The conservatives and libertarians keep chanting, “Socialism doesn’t work,” and they produce charts and tables to prove it. The socialists glance over the charts and tables and then they clamor for more socialism. They don’t care about data because no amount of data can refute a dream. The socialist mantra is, “We don’t care if it hasn’t worked. We will figure out a way to make it work.” The critics are focused on yesterday, while the socialists are all about tomorrow. Owen Jones expresses this futuristic hope, “A socialist society…doesn’t exist yet, but one day it must.”
(Dinesh D’Souza – Breitbart) We have gotten a nasty preview of it during the Coronavirus epidemic. We’ve experienced empty shelves, food shortages, limits on what you can buy, and also the attack on civil liberties, on freedom of assembly, on religious liberty, on privacy. So we’ve endured on a temporary basis what, under socialism, we are likely to endure on a permanent basis. Continue reading
