Mexico Is Complicit In The L.A. Riots, And There Should Be Consequences

“The president of Mexico has sided with the rioters waving Mexican flags over and against federal authorities attempting to enforce U.S. immigration law on American soil.”

(John Daniel Davidson – The Federalist) There’s a lot to say about the rioting and mayhem underway in Los Angeles right now, including the striking prevalence of Mexican flags among the rioters. Iconic images have been circulating online for days of masked men waving Mexico’s flag amid burning vehicles and wreckage, giving the riots a decidedly sinister flavor, as though all this is at least partly the work of foreign powers attempting to undermine the sovereignty of the United States.

Rick Warren Goes on Catholic TV to Call for Unity Between Catholics and Christians

“Warren, like so many of his empty-minded kind fail to understand, is that while Catholics may say they believe in these things, in practice and in definition, they are completely different. Catholics may say they believe Christ died on the cross for our sins, but to them, that simply means that Christ made it possible for them to earn their salvation through good works—something the Scriptures clearly teach is a damnable belief.”

(The Dissenter) Rick Warren, the former pastor of one of the largest former Southern Baptist churches in history, is now joining Catholics on Catholic television stations to lecture us on unity. Continue reading

Union Chiefs, Jayapal, Pledge ‘Solidarity’ with Illegals, not Americans

“Jayapal is a leading advocate for more immigration — regardless of the impact on Americans — because new migrants often depend on government aid and so mostly vote for the Democratic Party.”

(Breitbart) Progressive union leaders are ditching ordinary Americans as they embrace illegal migrants in Los Angeles, just eight months after voters elected a president who declared his solidarity with ordinary Americans.

“In the labor movement, we were built on this word, and that word is ‘Solidarity,’” union leader Liz Shuler announced Monday at a raucous rally on Capitol Hill, adding Continue reading

Three Telltale Signs of ‘Christianity’ Gone South

(Greg Koukl – Stand to Reason) If you want to quickly spot any form of “Christianity” gone south, watch for three specific telltale signs—a hat-trick of errors that, in whole or in part, characterize virtually every single Christian-sounding group that is off the reservation.

When you encounter a group you suspect may be theologically questionable, find out their answers to this trio of key questions. First, “Who or what is your spiritual authority?” Second, “Who is Jesus?” Third, “What must I do to be saved?” Continue reading

‘Choose a Side, America’

“You can’t have leftists without indulgent liberals, liberals without a true north. Liberals who are afraid to drive a stake in the ground and declare that they will not sell their fellow man out for a few atta boys at the club or a knowing nod from a colleague.”

(Victoria Taft – PJ Media) Tom Homan, the “Border Czar,” may have set the scene best when asked by a reporter to respond to Gov. Gavin Newsom’s claim that President Donald Trump’s ICE raids were responsible for the riots taking place in Los Angeles.

Homan responded in his typical just-the-facts fashion: Continue reading

Destructionism: The Left’s New Plan

Remember the BLM riots of 2020? Newsom and his fellow Destructionists called them “mostly peaceful.” Billions in damages, dozens of deaths, and neighborhoods gutted. No accountability. No prosecution. And certainly no apology. Compare that with how Jan. 6 protesters were hunted down across state lines, or how parents protesting school boards were labeled “domestic terrorists.”

(Kevin McCollough – Townhall) They don’t stop it.

They don’t prevent it.

They don’t even *pretend* to care anymore.

I call them Destructionists—and California Democrats have perfected the model. Continue reading

Harvard Is the Enemy

“Stroll on the Harvard campus. You look in vain for the Stars and Stripes. Instead, you see Islamic flags featuring a green field, a white crescent moon and a star. You listen in vain for the national anthem, the “Battle Hymn of the Republic” or “Yankee Doodle.” Instead, you hear the antisemitic chant “From the river to the sea” calling for the destruction of Israel.”

(Armstrong Williams – The Patriot Post) During his 2024 campaign, President Donald Trump correctly assailed elite universities like Harvard as controlled by “Marxist maniacs and lunatics.” He received a popular mandate to take them down. They deserve it.

The bill of indictment against Harvard is long. It is teaching students to hate America, to become modern-day Benedict Arnolds…. Continue reading

Homosexuality Losing Support; Christianity Resurging

“After decades of steady decline, the share of Americans identifying as Christian has stabilized. One reason is the unexpected religiosity of Generation Z — young adults born after 2000 — who are not abandoning religion at the rate their parents did. For some, faith has become a form of rebellion against a culture that rejects traditional values.”

(Paul Dragu – The New American) It’s June, and for most Americans that means there are few places to hide from LGBTQ propaganda. Pride parades have begun marching, social media feeds are churning out a daily barrage of articles promoting them, and Big Entertainment is hard at work touting the monumental accomplishments of gays, lesbians, bis, trans, and every other sexual “minority” group whose contribution to society is being brave enough to act on its abnormal sexual inclination. Continue reading

Throwdown: Simone Biles Goes Full Mean Girl on Riley Gaines – Sage Steele, Others Show No Mercy in Turn

(Sister Toldjah – Red State) I did not have “Simone Biles attacks Riley Gaines” on my bingo card this week, and yet here we are.

Biles, of course, won 11 Olympic medals in women’s gymnastics, with seven of them being gold, while Gaines was a champion collegiate athlete in women’s swimming and became a fiercely outspoken critic of having men participate in women’s sports after having to compete against transgender swimmer Lia Thomas. Continue reading

Dear Brandon Lake, Bubba Ain’t as Dumb as You Think

“When a man walks into church—even skeptical, even tired—he’s not looking for himself. He’s looking for something bigger. Transcendent. Weighty. And when we open with “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty”, we’re not alienating him. We’re inviting him into heaven’s soundtrack (Rev. 4:8).”

(Mike Edwards – Clear Truth Media) Brandon Lake [popular Christian worship singer, award winning songwriter and pastor who collaborates with heretical Bethel Redding] wants us to think about “Bubba”—the guy who got dragged to church by his wife and doesn’t get all the Christianese. He’s not ready to sing “Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty” yet. Brandon’s conclusion? Maybe we should tone it down for Bubba’s sake. Ease him in. Sing something he can “find himself” in. Continue reading

Sure Test of the Christian Profession Is One’s Reaction To Scripture

(Iain Murray) The first and invariable result of the new birth, according to Christ, is ‘sight’ (John 3:4). By this rebirth an individual comes to belong to the number of whom it is written: ‘They shall all be taught by God’ (John 6:45). He possesses an enlightenment which sets apart the teaching of God from all the teaching of men; for this person the promise ‘You shall know the truth’ is a reality (John 8:32).

This is not to say that becoming a Christian is primarily a change of opinion: it is far more profound. The Christian has received a new nature. Included in that nature is a capacity for truth, an affinity with truth, and a love for truth…. Continue reading

Bono the Clown Raised Millions for Food Relief That Went to Back Warlords & Buy Guns

Bono, U2’s frontman, is a professing Christian. But is he an authentic believer … or a counterfeit? Read the articles below to find out.

(Mary Dowling) Huh? What? Mike Benz reveals that Bono helped raise $100 million for food relief in Ethiopia in the 1980s, but only $5 million went to food. The other $95 million or so went to the government to cause and escalate a civil war. It paid for CIA-Backed warlords and guns. Continue reading

While Trump and Musk Spatted, SCOTUS Hemorrhaged Unanimous Decisions

(Stephen Kruiser – PJ Media) Well, that escalated quickly.

My colleagues here at PJ Media and most of our sister sites wrote volumes about the bromance brouhaha that erupted yesterday, so I’m going to lead off with something else.

Also, it’s been a long couple of weeks, and I would like to finish up on a happy note, which the Battle Royale was not (although, as my friend Matt Vespa wrote over at Townhall, the memes were a rollicking good time). Continue reading

Surprise! Sesame Street Is Grooming Your Children

“The message is loud, the costumes are bright, and the damage is deliberate. What used to be a quiet corner of educational television has been hijacked by activists with sock puppets and scripts from GLAAD.”

(The Dissenter) Once upon a time, Sesame Street was the gentle hum of a sunny day, where Big Bird helped kids spell “apple” and Oscar’s biggest sin was being grouchy. But somewhere between Bert and Ernie’s friendship bracelets and Michelle Obama’s kale evangelism, the street corner got bulldozed and rebuilt into a glitter-soaked gender studies classroom. Continue reading

The ‘Worldview Gamble’ on Eternity

“We believe as Christians we have a God-given responsibility to ensure to our best ability that the spiritual “fountains” we see people sampling are not poisonous or could not cost them a price far too great to bear. Our job, as we see it, is to warn people who might be unaware of the dangers of false teaching.” 

(Don and Joy Veinot – Midwest Christian Outreach) Questions about faith and faith claims are important. Whether the person asking the question is genuinely seeking an answer or attempting to pose a rhetorical “gotcha” question is not always clear. For example, GatoNegro777 posted a challenge to our webcast “No Quarter for False Teaching with Will Spencer,” on our Rumble channel…. Continue reading

People Swallow These Stories Hook, Line, and Sinker

“We talk about people living in a bubble–and they do–but the problem goes deeper than the filtering of information. If it were just a filter or bubble, then the bubble could burst, as it should have many times in the past few years. After the Steele Dossier, Hunter Biden laptop, “sharp as a tack” hoaxes were exposed, a person exercising rationality would revise their circle of trust, right? But millions haven’t, and most of those millions are pretty smart.” 

(David Strom – Hot Air) If there is one constant in life, it is this: according to the media, every time a Republican does something, millions of people will die.

Like Atlas holding up the world, the spendthrift ways and DEI policies of the Democratic Party are the only thing that stands between vast numbers of oppressed people dying horrible, torturous deaths and nirvana itself…. Continue reading

Why the Southern Baptist Convention (and PCA) Is Worth Fighting For

“This is especially obvious in a household. A father’s faithful life—or his abdication—shapes his children. But it goes further. The trajectory he sets has a ripple effect: his grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and even those outside his family are pulled into the wake of his character. This is the power of gravitas. And what’s true of a household is true of institutions.”

(Michael Foster – American Reformer) Before I explain why the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) is worth fighting for, let me tell you a story about the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA).

I came into the PCA in 2014. Early on, I met a ruling elder who, at first, struck me as a typical company man—the kind of guy who plays it safe, avoids confrontation, and just keeps the wheels turning. He was a soft-spoken Southerner. And I’m very much a blunt Midwesterner. Continue reading

Pride, Ungratefullness, and Trump Derangement Syndrome

“God put leaders in place to promote good and punish wrongdoing (Romans 13:1-7). To call him a “fascist,” “bigot,” or “racist” for promoting the most basic law and order is irrational and evidence of severe Trump Derangement Syndrome. Leaders are put in place by God to enforce the law (1 Peter 2:13-14).” 

(Seth Brickley – TruthScript) We have a continuing problem in the American church.

This problem is Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS).

A phrase coined to describe those on the Left and their attitude toward Trump, TDS is a disease that has infected many Americans, including many American churchgoers. The symptoms of this disease include possessing irrational thought, seeing Trump as a grave threat, and being unable to see any of the good he’s accomplished as President…. Continue reading

Critique of TPUSA’s Women’s Leadership Summit

Detractors to my assessments of women like Allie Beth, Priscilla Shirer, Beth Moore, Joanna Gaines, Christine Caine, Raechel Myers, women who claim to be biblical but live a very forward life, are numerous. One constant rejoinder I receive is, ‘Well her children are grown now, she has time and energy to serve the Lord in other ways!’

(Elizabeth Prata – The End Time) SYNOPSIS Turning Point USA’s Young Women’s Leadership Summit aims to empower women through civic engagement and political activism. However, the article critiques this initiative, questioning its alignment with biblical roles for women which are supposed to be primarily focused on home and motherhood. It highlights inconsistencies among speakers promoting activism while diverging from scriptural teachings on femininity and family responsibilities. Continue reading

50% of Liberal Women Are Mentally Ill – Pew Said It, Not Me

Watch the short LOL videos – the ranting “ladies” vulgar language has been bleeped.

“There’s an entire demographic who take antidepressants and go to therapy, and then think we should all listen to them on how to run the country…”

According to Pew Research, not a conservative outfit, half of liberal women admit they have a mental health problem. Such a shock. I’m shocked. Continue reading

Latest FBI Revelations Show The Mueller Special Counsel Was A Cover-Up, And Much More

“Those details, however, pale in comparison to two explosive facts the EC revealed by way of background. First, the EC explained the FBI’s Sentinel case management system allows investigative material to be coded “Prohibited Access,” which renders the files not merely inaccessible to other agents — but invisible to them. And second, Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s team designated the Trump/Russia-collusion investigations “Prohibited Access” in Sentinel, meaning any agents running keyword search in Sentinel would wrongly believe there were no responsive documents.”

(Margot Cleveland – The Federalist) The FBI’s electronic case management system, Sentinel, allows agents to hide the existence of relevant investigative reports from other authorized users of the federal database. And during the Russia collusion hoax, Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s team used that functionality to keep potentially relevant documents hidden from other FBI agents investigating whether a Fusion GPS contractor lied to Congress. Continue reading

N.T. Wright Says “Adam” and “Eve” Were ‘Primal Pair of Hominids’ Living Among Other Hominids When ‘Some Strange Force’ Called Them

(Protestia) Famed New Testament scholar N.T. Wright shared more about his long-standing position on the early chapters of Genesis, offering that not only is it poetry that is not to be taken literally, but that “Adam” and “Eve” were simply a primal pair of hominids (a type of primates that first appeared 5-7 million years ago) living among other hominids when “some strange force or power” called to be a part of “the human” project.

We recently wrote about Wright after he suggested abortion may be a tragic yet best allowable option in cases of rape, incest, or for the mental health of the mother who can’t deal with a child with physical and mental deformities, and after he offered that belief in the bodily resurrection of Christ is not necessary to be a Christian. Continue reading

We’re Commanded to Love Our Neighbors, Not to Make Them Feel Loved

“There is a growing tendency among many Christians in the West to redefine the second greatest commandment instead of simply misapplying it. To these misguided minds, when Christ said, “Love your neighbor as yourself,” he actually meant, “Make sure your neighbor feels loved by you.” The difference between those statements can be a matter of (eternal) life and death.”

(Doug Ponder – Clear Truth Media) In view of the importance that our Lord gives the command to love your neighbor (Matt. 22:36–40; Mark 12:28–33; cf. Matt. 7:12; Luke 10:25–28), it is no mystery why Christians have followed suit in making much of the same. This is well and good, provided that we understand what is (and is not) required of us. Unfortunately, there are two common ways the neighbor-love command is hellishly misinterpreted and misapplied. Continue reading

Andy Stanley’s Church Doubles Down on Transgender Ideology

“A gender-dysphoric child who finds “comfort” at North Point is likely to be encouraged to socially, hormonally, and surgically transition.” 

(Alan Shlemon – Stand to Reason) After attending Andy Stanley’s Unconditional Conference in October 2023, I realized his church (North Point) promoted pro-gay and pro-trans theology. I, among many others, called out their unbiblical teaching. Many prayed they would repent. Continue reading
