Will the Roman Catholic Church continue its policy of ignoring jihad and appeasing Muslims?

“Will the new pope follow Pope Francis in these positions that lead to civilizational suicide, or chart a new path?” 

(Robert Spencer – FrontPage Mag) The late Pope Francis had a long record of whitewashing Islamic jihad violence and making moral equivalence arguments in order to downplay jihad terror. Back in 2017, Ahmed al-Tayeb, the Grand Imam of Cairo’s al-Azhar, noticed the pope’s yeoman service for the Islamic cause and thanked him for his “defense of Islam against the accusation of violence and terrorism.” Continue reading

Thanks To DEI, Most Medical Schools Now Teach Doctors To Damage Patients

“I fear we are approaching an environment — if we’re not already there — where malpractice masquerades as virtuous health care. Picture a physician so bound by ideology he cannot explore the roots of gender dysphoria, instead pushing a child toward irreversible surgery to affirm gender; too fearful of being labeled “fatphobic” to warn an obese patient about heart failure; or so steeped in anti-racist dogma that a critically ill white male is deprioritized to favor a less urgent case for a black female patient.”

(Jared Gould – The Federalist) Speech First has uncovered records from more than 50 public medical schools across 46 states, revealing that these institutions are training left-wing advocates who prioritize race in treatment, promote gender identities contrary to biology, and downplay obesity’s health risks….

So it’s true: DEI seems to have gotten 67 people killed over the Potomac

“The @nytimes story on the January DC plane crash hides its takeaway until the last sentences: the lady helicopter pilot ignored multiple warnings from her right seat about altitude (and his directly telling her to turn away) and flew straight into a passenger jet. The end. Ugh.” – Alex Berenson 

(Monica Showalter – American Thinker) Did DEI have something to do with the inexplicable plane-helicopter collision over the Potomac last January, killing 67* people?

It looks like it based on a long, detailed, Page One report from the New York Times.

Anti-Trinitarian Heretic, TD Jakes is Stepping Down

“Even the greatest charlatans don’t work alone. Steven Furtick was the adoring apprentice, the eager mimic, the dollar-store knockoff of Jakes’ ministry of self. Together, they didn’t so much shepherd the flock as they fleeced it, turning churches into circuses where the name of Jesus was a marketing slogan and the offering plate the main attraction.”

(The Dissenter) At long last, the velvet-tongued emperor of Christian celebrity culture, Bishop T.D. Jakes, has announced his exit from the pulpit of The Potter’s House—the crumbling empire he built atop the rotting carcass of the Word of Faith movement and anti-Trinitarian heresy. Continue reading

Here’s the True Story on Arresting the Judge Who Harbored an Illegal Alien

Must watch video.

(Mary Dowling) The mainstream media has been slow in reporting the facts about the judge’s arrest in Milwaukee. Democrats are using the arrest as an opportunity to smear the administration.

According to Homeland Security, Eduardo Flores-Ruiz, the illegal alien that the Wisconsin judge was shielding, has a violent criminal record with charges including strangulation and suffocation, battery, and domestic abuse. He illegally entered the U.S. twice. Continue reading

Pentagon Puts Politics Over Readiness: Taxpayers to Fund Sex Change Surgeries for Troops

“Despite this clear commitment to restoring focus on mission readiness and discipline, a wave of judicial activism has disrupted the Pentagon’s efforts. Two federal judges recently blocked the military’s reasonable ban on transgender service members.” 

(Sarah Arnold – Townhall) The Pentagon’s decision to resume funding sex change treatments and surgeries for transgender servicemembers marks a controversial shift in military policy, prioritizing progressive social agendas over core defense readiness…. Continue reading

Wood, Hay, and Straw

(Ron Helle – The Patriot Post) The images on the television were stark! It is not unusual for Southern California to have what they call Santa Anna winds. Instead of westerly winds coming from the Pacific Ocean, they shift to easterly winds, blowing the high-desert heat and low humidity toward the coastal cities. Brush fires are not a surprise, and they can be challenging to subdue.

In 2024, Southern California’s firefighters faced the most devastating infernos they had ever experienced. Entire neighborhoods were completely destroyed. Homes and businesses were reduced to piles of ash and debris. The devastation was staggering. Continue reading

Jay Leno Faces His Biggest—and Most Heartbreaking—Challenge

“Leno appeared on the “In Depth with Graham Bensinger” podcast and, in a rare moment, he spoke out about his wife’s condition, their marriage, and what being her primary caregiver means to him. He agreed that taking care of her is a challenge, but there’s no other place he’d rather be.”

(Sarah Anderson – PJ Media) There are few people in Hollywood I can say I truly respect, but Jay Leno is one of them. Growing up watching him on TV, I always liked the fact that he wasn’t overly partisan or political and happily poked fun at both sides. His interviews were good, and he didn’t kiss up to his guests. Continue reading

The Papal Conclave Is A Battle Not Just For The Catholic Church But For Western Civilization

The author is a Roman Catholic.

“J.D. Vance of course represents a rejection of Francis’ liberalism. He and others like him — including myself; I was received into the Catholic Church the year before Vance, in 2018 — are not becoming Catholics because of men like Francis but in spite of them. They seek something solid and unchanging and true amid the uncertainty and falsity of modern life. 

(John Daniel Davidson – The Federalist) The papal conclave to elect a successor to Pope Francis will soon be underway in Rome. Cardinals from all over the world, 135 of whom are eligible to cast a vote, are now traveling to the Vatican. There they will meet behind the sealed doors of the Sistine Chapel, cut off from the outside world for as many sessions as it takes to elect a new pope. Continue reading

Disrupters and Facilitators

(Bill O’Reilly’s Message of the Day) As Donald Trump approaches 100 days in office, it is becoming clear as to how he is running the country the second time around. The President has hired two different types of people to advance his agenda: disrupters and facilitators.

The D group is headed by Elon Musk, RFK, Jr., and Pete Hegseth.

The E crew’s composition includes Pam Bondi, Marco Rubio, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.

Now, why should you care?  Well, Mr. Trump’s policies directly affect your well-being, and that’s why.

What Is Biblical Counseling?

“[Biblical counseling] is a partnership between people who are seeking God’s wisdom—a wisdom that goes to the heart of the matter. It is a wisdom that can penetrate a person’s inmost being (Hebrews 4:12).”

(Edward T. Welch) Biblical counseling is a hybrid of discipleship and biblical friendship. Its occasion is when life seems painful, confusing, or unmanageable, and we turn to the Spirit and the Word for help. This anchors biblical counseling in the ancient tradition of pastoral care, which has now been dispersed to all God’s people (Ephesians 4:11–13). Biblical counseling is not a trademarked school of thought. Instead, it rests in the public domain and grows as we all bring Scripture to the difficult details of life in a way that honors God and is exactly what our souls need. Continue reading

Companies Must Remove Petroleum-Based Food Dyes From Our Food

“Secretary Kennedy said sugar is more addictive than crack. It’s poison! He said when he was a kid, a doctor saw one diabetic child in his career, today it is one out of every three children. It’s existential, giving us a diabetes crisis.”

(Mary Dowling) The food lobby has forced Americans to eat foods with petroleum-based food dyes. Thanks to MAHA and Secretary Kennedy’s leadership, companies have to eliminate it from our food. They have a year-and-a-half to do it. Continue reading

DOJ Files First-Ever RICO Charges Against 27 Tren de Aragua Gang Members

(Bob Price – Breitbart) The Department of Justice filed multiple federal charges against 27 members of the hyperviolent Tren de Aragua Venezuelan gang on Monday. The charges include Racketeering, Narcotics and Sex Trafficking, Robbery, and Firearms offenses. DOJ officials say this marks the first time RICO charges have been filed against Tren de Aragua gang members.

On Monday, DOJ officials unsealed indictments against 27 current or former members of the Tren de Aragua (TdA) gang. Officials report that 21 of the 27 indicted gang members are currently in federal custody. Continue reading

The Rise and Fall of Russell Moore: It’s Time to Say, ‘No Moore.’

“In 2 Timothy 2:17-18, the apostle Paul names Hymenaeus and Philetus as those who “have swerved from the truth,” and he warns that their talk “will spread like gangrene” if not stopped. Paul modeled the hard but necessary step of publicly rebuking those who lead others astray. Russell Moore’s influence is a spiritual gangrene in the body if left unchecked. A limb with gangrene must be decisively treated, or the infection spreads. In this case, the “treatment” is a public rebuke and distancing, done with the hope of restoration but prepared for rejection.”

(David Mizenbacher – Founders Ministries) There was a time when many conservative evangelical leaders respected Russell Moore as a gifted theologian and champion of biblical values. But that time has long passed. In recent years, a growing number of those same leaders who once platformed Moore have begun privately voicing grave concerns about Moore’s trajectory. The dissonance between private criticism and public silence is untenable—and worse, it is harmful to the church. Continue reading

Christianity Today Apologizes For Viral Article That Was Hated By 99% of People

(Protestia) Christianity Today has issued a correction and apology for publishing an article arguing that Jesus wasn’t nailed to the cross, with the author saying that he failed to consider Jesus’ interactions with Thomas in John 20:25 and, as a result, unintentionally “called into question the inerrancy of Scripture.”

Days ago, Daniel Silliman, the senior news editor of CT, wrote Was Jesus Crucified with Nails?, where Jeffrey P. Arroyo García, an ‘evangelical biblical scholar’ who teaches at Gordon College, insisted that Jesus likely wasn’t nailed to the cross but instead was merely secured with ropes when he perished. Silliman entertained this erroneous speculation, throwing a bit of cover and intrigued to help him make his case. Continue reading

Van Hollen’s Post From 2017 on MS-13 Comes Back to Haunt Him

(Rebecca Downs – Townhall) Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) has been talking quite a bit about “Maryland man,” a deported illegal immigrant whose real name is Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia. The Trump administration has provided evidence that Abrego Garcia is a member of MS-13, with the release of documents last week coming the same day that Van Hollen traveled to El Salvador to visit Abrego Garcia. Van Hollen’s focus becomes even more curious, given that back in 2017, during the first Trump administration, he was posting to his X account about concerns with MS-13 gang members. Continue reading

Grave Soaking At TD Jakes’ Church? Pastor Tells Potter’s House To Put Their Faces On His Grave

The Potter’s House is led by infamous Modalist TD Jakes, who has gone on record saying he doesn’t believe that Jesus is the second person of the Trinity but rather is just a “manifestation” of God.

(Protestia) Yesterday’s service at The Potter’s House Dallas featured TD Jakes, his son-in-law Touré Roberts, and daughter Sarah Jakes Roberts, all preaching part of the Easter sermon message when Roberts, talking about leaving a legacy, told congregants he wanted his children and their children to visit his grave when he’s dead so they can get his ‘oil’ from him.

In the context of the great cloud of witnesses in Hebrews 12, Roberts revealed: Continue reading

Democrats See MS-13 Gang Member as Their Next George Floyd

“…this feels like a replay of the George Floyd case. Just as they did then, Democrats are strategically ignoring inconvenient truths to shape a narrative that creates outrage and energizes their voters. With Floyd, they chose to ignore the medical examiner’s findings that Floyd did not die from asphyxiation, as they claimed. Now, with Abrego Garcia, they gloss over his violent history, focusing instead on emotional appeals about the cruelty of deportation, all while conveniently ignoring the due process he received.”

(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) The Democratic Party and their media allies are busy crafting their next political martyr, and this time, the man at the center of their campaign comes with a long, troubling history. Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a suspected MS-13 gang member, wife-beater, and human trafficker, is being transformed into a cause célèbre for deportation reform. Continue reading

False Teacher of the Day: Craig Groeschel

“Don’t let the charming tone and disarming smile fool you. Craig Groeschel is not a faithful minister of the gospel. He’s a wolf dressed in khakis and charisma, and his influence is as corrosive as it is colossal.”

(The Dissenter) He walks onto the stage with a flawless smile and a perfectly-timed pause. The lights dim, the audience leans in, and for thirty minutes, the man speaks with the cadence of a TED Talker and the certainty of a Silicon Valley mogul pitching salvation like a subscription service. Continue reading

Trans World: Reflections on a cult

“Why is the Left literally hell-bent on asserting that male and female are false, oppressive social constructions, that something called gender is on an infinite spectrum, that masculinity and femininity are so fluid as to be meaningless? Because the most crucial front of the neo-Marxist agenda is the abolition of the family, as Karl Marx himself explicitly called for. It is necessary to eradicate the distinction between male and female in order to dissolve the bonds between mother and father, sister and brother, wife and husband, and pave the way for a collectivist utopia ruled by the State.”

(Mark Tapson – FrontPage Mag) The Supreme Court of the United Kingdom unanimously ruled recently that the definition of the word “woman” is based only on biological sex. She is, as a Supreme Court justice here in the U.S. infamously was unable to state, “an adult female human being.” Conversely, then, transgender women are not legally considered women. Continue reading

The Pontiff Has Fallen—And He Will Not Rise Again

“He peddled a gospel that cannot save.  He merged Christianity with ideologies that hate Christ. He confused grace with permissiveness. He hugged wolves and let the sheep wander. And he did it all with a grin. And this is all an understatement. The stakes here aren’t just doctrinal—they’re eternal. Francis wasn’t just a bad pope. He was a pied piper in white robes, whistling his way down the broad road and dragging millions behind him.”

(The Dissenter) The pontiff is dead. And no, the bells aren’t ringing in triumph—they’re tolling like a funeral dirge for a man whose soul now quakes before the throne of Almighty God. Pope Francis—Rome’s darling, the media’s mascot, the Church of Nice’s poster boy—is gone. And what lies ahead for him isn’t a harp or a halo, but the thundering words of the Risen Christ: “Depart from me, you worker of lawlessness.” Continue reading

Firefly Investigation Finds Dr. Michael Brown Engaged in ‘Sexually Abusive Misconduct,’ But Under Whose Definition?

“IW #11 described this closeness as inappropriate, unprofessional, and unethical, adding, “If it happened in a church in front of congregants, they would be horrified. No man would let a preacher treat his eighteen-year-old the way Mike treated me and other young women with whom he cultivated this type of relationship.”

(Protestia) Firefly has concluded its independent investigation into sexual misconduct allegations against noted author and apologist Michael Brown, finding that he engaged in some degree of ‘sexually abusive misconduct‘ but that the incidents appear to be isolated to the two instances from 2001-2002 that have already been made public.
