“That has to stop. And there may be a remarkable way to stop it right now.”
(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) Virginia used to be a model of fair redistricting. That reputation is now gone.
On Tuesday, Virginia Democrats passed a redistricting plan that transforms one of the most fairly apportioned states in the country into one of the most blatantly gerrymandered.
Keep in mind that Virginia only narrowly backed Kamala Harris over Donald Trump in 2024 by roughly five points…. Continue reading
(The Dissenter) Over Easter—of all times—spiritual charlatan, Paula White, stood in front of cameras and compared Donald Trump to Christ. Not subtly. Not loosely. Directly. She took the betrayal, the suffering, the cost, the language that belongs to the cross alone—and laid it at the feet of the president as if it were even remotely transferable.
That should have been the moment. The hard stop. The line in the sand where everyone in that orbit said, “No—this is out of bounds.” Continue reading
“While Bickle has ‘only’ admitted to sexually inappropriate behaviors with two separate adults, two minors have alleged they were victims as well of sexual abuse…”
(Protestia) The founder and disgraced former leader of the International House of Prayer, Mike Bickle, is setting the stage to return to ministry, even after an independent investigation found that the charismatic leader sexually abused or harassed at least seventeen women during his tenure there. Continue reading
“…Acknowledging that the world would be safer without Iran’s nuclear program would force his colleagues to admit they’ve been wrong for the past 50 days. So instead, they’d rather keep calling it illegal and dumb — and hope Iran just waits them out. That last part is what should disturb every American.”
(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) John Fetterman just handed his own party another brutal dose of reality — and you can bet Democrats won’t be happy about it.
Fetterman was on SiriusXM’s The Michael Smerconish Program on Monday and did something almost no one in his party can do anymore: He told the truth. Continue reading
“We live in a time in which your generation has grown up in a totally different environment from those of us who are older, who sought to remain knowledgeable of and true to over two thousand years of biblical understanding of the need to maintain the moral purity of the church by its shepherds and leadership.”
(Helen Louise Herndon) As most know, church members are considered flocks—flocks made up of shepherds and sheep, also called lambs. Shepherds are males who are teaching and ruling elders. They are called elders, as historically they were older rams…. Continue reading
“Wesley Hill… 𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐮𝐞𝐬 in a most twisted manner in his 2025 article, “Excluded from God’s Kingdom?

(Protestia Wesley Hill is a celibate, self-described “gay Christian” and Episcopal priest and professor who is perhaps best known for his book Washed and Waiting: Reflections on Christian Faithfulness and Homosexuality and for writing for such publications as Christianity Today and The Living Church.
A key figure and supporter of the controversial Revoice conference, we last wrote about him after he said he feels no need to oppose a lot of what he finds in queer theology. Continue reading
“Ciaramella cited double or triple hearsay evidence and had no direct knowledge of the phone call but, like a game of telephone, was told about it afterward. Later, the Inspector General, who’s also been referred for prosecution, ignored the hearsay, took his whistleblower complaint form (there’s a suggestion that he swapped it) and never bothered to read the transcript of the actual conversation.”
(Victoria Taft – PJ Media) The Director of National Intelligence’s declassification of documents this week proved that the impeachment of President Donald Trump 45 for a phone call about Ukraine was an utterly fabricated put-up job. We all suspected it, but the released docs confirm it. And now we’re seeing stunning video of the lawyer in charge of the impeachment also confirming the gobsmacking reason behind it.

“I find myself asking—quietly at first, then louder, then not quietly at all: What God? Because the answer to that question is not abstract. It is not philosophical. It is not negotiable. “No one who denies the Son has the Father. That’s not a rhetorical shibboleth. That’s a hard line in the sand.”
(The Dissenter) “Antichrists are the dissembled enemies of Christ, who every manner of way are against the doctrine of Christ, whose followers they profess themselves to be (1 John 2:18–22; 4:3; 2 John 7).” — Amandus Polanus
I keep coming back to that word, “dissembled.” Not open hostility. Not the snarling enemy at the gate. No, something far more unnerving. The kind that smiles. The kind that speaks the language. The kind that stands in familiar places, wears familiar garments, and says just enough of the right things to pass—until you actually listen. Continue reading
“Studies indicate that approximately 35 to 46 percent of pastors identify unrealistic expectations as one of the most challenging dynamics of ministry, with younger pastors reporting the highest levels of strain. Such pressures erode pastoral confidence and can subtly reshape ministry from faithful presence to anxious performance.”
(Mark Horne – Place for Truth) Throughout the history of the church, pastors have been burdened with expectations that exceed both biblical warrant and human capacity. While pastoral ministry has always carried weighty responsibility, the modern period, particularly in the post-industrial and post-consumerist West, has intensified these pressures…. Continue reading
“Thomas avoided naming specific politicians or referencing current events. He didn’t need to. The indictment was broad, clear, and landed with full force in a country that knows exactly who fits the description.”
If you’re here, you already love Justice Clarence Thomas for being a reliable defender of the Constitution. You’ve probably wished that we could clone him so that he could be on all nine seats of the Supreme Court. He never seems to disappoint. And during a speech on Wednesday at the University of Texas at Austin Law School, he definitely did not disappoint. Continue reading
“Personally, I think the charge that “it is all about the Jews” is the most weapons-grade idiocy out there. It’s like saying J.R.R. Tolkien wrote The Lord of the Rings because it was all about protecting the Hobbits and the security of the Shire, but that “take” sells because it is attention-grabbing, conspiratorial, and it plays on hatred rather than intellect.”
(Michael Smith – The Patriot Post) People tend to reduce events to a level of simplicity they can comfortably explain to themselves, a lowest-common-denominator version of reality that fits inside their existing worldview. It is as much a coping mechanism as an intellectual shortcut…. Continue reading
“Franklin Graham. Robert Jeffress. Other so-called evangelical leaders. Men who know better. Men who, at least on paper, affirm the authority of Scripture and the uniqueness of Christ. And yet there they stood, shoulder to shoulder with a woman—Jezebel—who had just compared a man to the Risen Lord in language that should have set off every alarm in their theological framework.”
(The Dissenter) I thought I had heard it all.
I really did. Paula White has spent years building a reputation as one of the most brazen purveyors of prosperity nonsense in modern evangelicalism—name it, claim it, decree it, declare it, speak it into existence. The whole tired script. I’ve watched it, critiqued it, and frankly, gotten to the point where very little coming out of that camp still shocks me. Continue reading
“Today marks the first conviction under the Take It Down Act – protecting victims from non-consensual AI-generated sexually explicit images, cyberstalking, and threats of violence,” the first lady wrote on the social platform X. “Thank you U.S. Attorney Dominick S. Gerace II for protecting Americans from cybercrimes in this new digital age.”
(Revolver) Melania Trump just bagged her first bad guy.
The bill was introduced by Ted Cruz and Democrat Amy Klobuchar, championed by First Lady Melania Trump, and signed into law by President Trump about a year ago. Melania pushed the Take It Down Act as a way to protect both kids and adults from digital abuse…. Continue reading
“New York City’s Pride event organizers have said they’ve seen a decline of $750,000 in sponsorship money. This represents a drop of roughly 20%. In San Francisco, of all places, its Pride organizations said they’ve lost sponsors that have included: Anheuser‑Busch, Comcast, Diageo, and Nissan, representing a loss of $200,000-$300,000.”
(Tim O’Brien – PJ Media) If you were to celebrate the Tucson Pride Festival this past February, you were out of luck. Organizers of Tucson Pride had to dissolve their organization and cancel the annual festival, which for some reason wasn’t held during national Pride Month, which is in June. Continue reading
“Trump added that he also did not want a Pope who criticizes him because he was “doing exactly” what he was elected to do.”
(Elizabeth Weibel – Breitbart) President Donald Trump criticized Pope Leo XIV, labeling him as “WEAK on Crime, and terrible for Foreign Policy,” and added that he does not want a Pope who opposes the actions of the Trump administration.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump stated that he likes Pope Leo’s brother “much better” than he likes the Pope. Trump also noted he does not want a Pope “who thinks it’s OK for Iran to have a Nuclear Weapon,” or who “thinks it’s terrible that America attacked Venezuela.” Continue reading
“We last covered Mark Driscoll in our article Fox News Driscoll, which we catalogued him openly lying to his congregants, and also after we commented on his bizarre porno-visions…”
(Protestia) Pastor Mark Driscoll of Trinity Church is slated to preach during the main session of the upcoming Rededicate 250 celebration, according to a recent newsletter sent out by his Real Faith ministry.
Rededicate 250 is a national faith event announced by President Donald Trump during this year’s National Prayer Breakfast…. Continue reading
“Bethel Church of Redding, CA is known for both the pastor’s wife and youth from the church doing what they call “grave soaking” meaning they lay on graves and try to get some kind of impartation from dead people Benny Hinn has the keys to Aimee Semple Macpherson’s grave site and also visits Kathryn Kuhlman’s grave where he has stated he gets a special impartation from their graves.”
(Sandy Simpson – Deception in the Church) The Bible is quite clear about occult practices. Neither Israel nor the Church is to have anything to do with the way the world tries to gain secret knowledge. The Gnostics were and are known for promoting new revelation that is either loosely tied to Scripture taken out of context or not at all. The Israelites seeking information from the dead or in omens were judged harshly by the Lord who had warned them numerous times to stay away from that stuff. Continue reading
Below is a fascinating video that will leave you wondering “How could so many church leaders allow this to happen to their precious sheep?” Here’s some of what you’ll learn by watching it – but there’s way more information in the video that most people are unaware of.
Below is AI generated. The video was produced by The Secret List:
Rick Warren’s book, “The Purpose Driven Life,” has had a profound impact on American churches, leading to significant changes in church practices and membership. The book’s influence is evident in the following ways: Continue reading
(Protestia) Fresh off of suggesting that abortion may be a tragic yet best allowable option in cases of rape, incest, or for the mental health of the mother, and that that belief in the bodily resurrection of Christ is not necessary to be a Christian,famed New Testament scholar N.T. Wright has shared some thoughts on the origins of Adam and Eve.
On a recent episode of Premiere Unbelievable?, after being asked whether or not Adam and Eve literally existed, Wright opines: Continue reading
“America is not perfect. No nation is. But the United States remains something rare in human history: a country capable of extraordinary power and, at its best, willing to use that power against evil.”
(Ben Shapiro – PJ Media) America is living through a moment difficult to describe without sounding a little unhinged.
But here goes: We are watching the United States do things that only the United States can do.
In the span of a few days, Americans have watched astronauts push farther into space than any human beings in history, while U.S. forces execute military operations so precise and technologically overwhelming that they look like something written for a Hollywood script. Pilots are being rescued in missions that resemble “Mission: Impossible.” Terrorists are being eliminated with the kind of targeted strikes that only a modern superpower can carry out. Continue reading
“I feel like it’s okay for me to say this because as you know, I’m honored evangelical mascot of the LDS church. So I’ve been granted favor to say certain things that maybe others can’t say.”
Dallas Jenkins, son of “Left Behind” author Jerry Jenkins, and Director of the smash-hit TV show The Chosen, continues to act as an apologist for the Church of the Latter Day Saints, insisting in a new interview that Mormons have such a reverence and genuine respect for Christ- more than most evangelicals do-and they honor scripture and exhibit fidelity to scripture. Continue reading
“This is incredible news! Therapists have been under the threat of losing their license in states like CO for simply helping a child feel comfortable in their body, which is the compassionate & evidence-based treatment for gender dysphoria. This issue is akin to anorexia & now therapists have the freedom to treat this mental health issue ethically. God bless Kaley Chiles and thank you ADF Legal!!”
(Bill Muehlenberg – Culture Watch) Let me start with a scenario: a person who says she is addicted to chocolate, or to buying too many clothes, goes to a friend to get some counsel on how to change. Prayer might even be asked for as part of this. Yet the state has declared that anyone offering such counsel or even just praying for the person can be fined or imprisoned. Continue reading
“The message, unusually apocalyptic in tone even by Trump’s standards, immediately drew attention from policymakers, analysts, and international observers.”
(Newsmax) President Donald Trump sparked global concern Tuesday with a dramatic post on his social media platform, Truth Social, warning of a potential catastrophic turning point involving Iran and setting a striking deadline of 8 p.m.
In the post, Trump wrote: Continue reading
“Remember the poor metaphorical frog that was placed in a pot of lukewarm water until brought to a boil, unaware of the progressive heat until it was too late? The frog, which is the endless stream of young men and women herded like cattle through slaughterhouses of woke universities peddling cultural marxism and leftist ideologies, is completely clueless. The frog is toast. I’m mixing metaphors, but you get the point–in the end, neither the frog nor the cow makes it.”
(Zack Carter – TruthScript) Remember the hero scene from the 90s film Independence Day? Deep in the alien mother ship – having stealthily flown their Trojan Horse inside – the heroes upload the computer virus, disabling the ship, rendering defenseless smaller ships on Earth, wreaking untold carnage, chaos, and catastrophe. Humanity finally had a fighting chance to send its alien agenda into the abyss. Continue reading
“The U.S. Air Force then set up a landing strip near the city. There, two U.S. transport planes became stuck and were demolished in place so as not to fall into Iranian hands. But those on the Left who are inclined to caterwaul about the expense of the operation might want to shut their lousy soup coolers — lest we remind them that Joe Biden abandoned some $7 billion worth of American military equipment and the superbly strategic Bagram Air Base when he high-tailed it out of Afghanistan.”
(Douglas Andrews – Patriot Post)
What no one knew was the Taliban had some sort of bunker back there, and as the MH-47 tilted back for the insert and the ropes fell away for the climb-down, the Taliban fired a rocket-propelled grenade straight through the open ramp.
It shot clean past the heads of the lead group and blew with a shattering blast against the fuel tanks, turning the helo into an inferno, stern and midships. Several of the guys were blown out and fell, some of them burning, to their deaths, from around 30 feet. …
The helicopter pilot fought for control, unaware of the carnage behind him but certainly aware of the raging fires around and above him. Of course, there was nothing he could do. The big MH-47 just fell out of the sky and crashed with thunderous impact onto the mountainside, swayed, and then rolled with brutal force over and over, smashing itself to pieces on a long 200-yard downward trail to extinction.
