Merrick Garland Uses Cops Who Died By Stroke, Suicides To Rewrite J6 History

/0 Comments/in , /by

Not a single Capitol police officer was killed on January 6, 2021, yet Attorney General Merrick Garland’s dishonest statement about the protest released Monday may have people thinking otherwise.

“On this day, four years ago, police officers were brutally assaulted while bravely defending the United States Capitol. They were punched, tackled, tased, and attacked with chemical agents that burned their eyes and skin,” Garland said. “Today, I am thinking of the officers who still bear the scars of that day as well as the loved ones of the five officers who lost their lives in the line of duty as a result of what happened to them on January 6, 2021.”

But not a single officer was killed by any January 6 defendants — which is perhaps why not a single defendant was charged with manslaughter or murder.

Officer Brian Sicknick died of natural causes on Jan. 7 after suffering two strokes, according to the Washington D.C. chief medical examiner. Members of the propaganda press, however, spent weeks telling America that Sicknick was beaten to death with a fire extinguisher during the protest (I’m looking at you, New York Times). . .

Four other officers died by suicide within months of the protest — including two officers who were not present for the actual protest. Metropolitan Police Officer Kyle DeFreytag was not present for the actual protest, but later “helped enforce the curfew put in place after a mob of supporters” of then-President Donald Trump entered the Capitol Building, according to People Magazine. Officer Gunther Hashida also died by suicide after having not been present for the riot itself but responding to it.

Biden Mumbles Nonsense While Singing ‘Happy Birthday’ to Kid He Brought on Stage

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Biden’s fumble went viral across social media after another embarrassing gaffe while singing “Happy Birthday” to a White House guest.

During an event marking the signing of the Social Security Fairness Act on Sunday, Biden attempted to sing “Happy Birthday” to 17-year-old Eliseo Jimenez. Jimenez became nationally known after he walked from Lubbock, Texas, to Washington, D.C. in order to spread awareness about the limits of Social Security.

“Eliseo is just around the corner from receiving Social Security,” Biden joked before announcing that Jimenez’s birthday was the next day.

Less than a minute later, Biden appeared to either forget his name entirely or how to correctly say it while leading the audience in singing “Happy Birthday,” mumbling instead as the crowd sang, “…dear Eliseo.” The mumble was so pronounced that Jimenez reacted and laughed as if it were a joke.

This verbal error from Biden was the latest of many gaffes that have made Americans, particularly his critics, skeptical about his mental acuity and wary of his defenders.

Congress Certifies Donald Trump’s Election Victory

/0 Comments/in , /by

On Monday, as snow blanketed Washington, D.C., and security forces patrolled the Capitol complex, Congress officially certified Donald Trump’s return to power, cementing his status as President-elect just weeks before his inauguration. The proceedings unfolded under unusual weather conditions— a rare heavy snowstorm that left the normally bustling Capitol largely deserted, with no crowds or protestors allowed near the premises due to tight security.

This session of Congress marked the final step in the constitutional process to validate the electoral results from each of the 50 states. Trump’s resounding victory of 312 electoral votes was confirmed, making his political comeback official. He continued preparations for his upcoming presidency from Mar-a-Lago, where he celebrated the milestone.

“CONGRESS CERTIFIES OUR GREAT ELECTION VICTORY TODAY — A BIG MOMENT IN HISTORY. MAGA!” Trump shared on Truth Social earlier that morning, expressing his enthusiasm for the momentous occasion.

In her ceremonial role, Vice President Kamala Harris presided over the proceedings. As Congress’s presiding officer, Harris’s function was purely ministerial, with no authority to influence the final outcome. The primary task was to announce the official certification of Trump’s victory alongside Vice President-elect JD Vance.

Biden Administration Releases 11 Yemeni Terrorists From Guantanamo Bay to Oman

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Biden administration released 11 Yemeni terrorists, who were captured after the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, from Guantanamo Bay.

While the men had been “approved for transfer by national security officials” more than two years ago, they were approved to be transferred to Oman on Monday, according to NPR News.

Oman reportedly “agreed to help resettle them and provide security monitoring” for the 11 prisoners, who are described as being “former al-Qaeda members,” according to records from the U.S. Department of Defense.

The outlet noted that the transfers of the prisoners were “originally scheduled to happen in October 2023,” but were paused “due to concerns” regarding the “instability in the Middle East” in the aftermath of Hamas’s October 7, 2023, attack on Israel.

That the plan was resurrected during President Biden’s final two weeks in office signals a last-ditch effort by his administration to shrink Guantanamo’s prisoner population and get closer to his goal of trying to close the facility. In recent weeks, the U.S. has transferred four other Guantanamo inmates — a Kenyan, a Tunisian and two Malaysians — and is preparing for the transfer of at least one more, an Iraqi.

Christian Pronoun Hospitality: The Hidden Problem That Leads to Compromise

/0 Comments/in , /by

Should Christians engage in so-called gender pronoun hospitality?

Gender pronoun hospitality refers to the concept of using someone’s “preferred pronouns” or a trans-identifying person’s transgender name despite otherwise disagreeing with LGBTQ ideology. . .

Not to practice gender pronoun hospitality, its practitioners argue, risks offense and, ultimately, the potential destruction of relationship, which could be a barrier between LGBTQ-identifying people and the Gospel. Bible scholar Preston Sprinkle has even described pronoun hospitality as a “common courtesy.”

But according to famed pastor John Piper, Christians should not engage in gender pronoun hospitality — and for good reason.

On a recent episode of his podcast “Ask Pastor John,” Piper answered a question he received from a concerned church elder about gender pronoun hospitality and whether Christians can use it in relationships with non-Christians in evangelism contexts.

Could This Unexpected Trend Spark a Nationwide Spiritual Revival?

/0 Comments/in , /by

New Year’s often inspires plans for enhancing our lives, and a recent trend could spark a nationwide revival.

America saw a Bible boom last year — the hope and good news of Scripture reaching millions of new eyes. Bible sales increased 22% in 2024 over 2023, led by shoppers purchasing copies as first-time readers. Bible sales rose to 14.2 million in 2023 from 9.7 million in 2019, according to data reported by Jeffrey A. Trachtenberg at the Wall Street Journal, and hit 13.7 million in the first 10 months of 2024.

An interesting point is that sales of all books — including secular ones — were up less than 1%. That means there’s an undeniable spike in demand for the Good Book.

What does all this mean? Christians like me are rejoicing at this opportunity for more people to know God’s love. As a recovered agnostic, baptized as an adult seven years ago on December 3, my desire is to encourage new believers or curious seekers exploring faith.

For some new Bible readers, it may seem foreign and uncomfortable to embark on this journey, especially if they experienced or witnessed religious trauma and abuse. I certainly did, which is part of why returning to Bible reading was hard for me at first. (Read more from “Could This Unexpected Trend Spark a Nationwide Spiritual Revival?” HERE)

Liz Cheney Should Be Criminally Investigated For Her Corruption, Not Rewarded

/1 Comment/in , /by

President Joe Biden rewarded disgraced ex-Wyoming Congresswoman Liz Cheney with one of the nation’s highest civilian honors on Thursday for her work undermining democracy through the illegally established and since-disbanded Jan. 6 Select Committee.

After sources close to Biden recently told The Washington Post he regretted that the Justice Department (DOJ) did not move more aggressively to jail top political opponents, Biden awarded Cheney the Presidential Citizens Medal. He also gave the medal to Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., who chaired the House probe. The Presidential Citizens Medal is second only to the Presidential Medal of Freedom in prestige.

Fox News contributor Guy Benson reminded followers on X that Thompson, the long-time Mississippi lawmaker, “refused to certify George W. Bush’s 2004 victory in Ohio.”

According to Newsweek, Democrats also objected to more states in the 2016 election than Republicans did in 2020, but none faced criminal charges. Democrats on the Jan. 6 panel, however, referred Trump to the Justice Department for criminal prosecution and successfully incarcerated former Trump advisers Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro for their refusal to comply with requests from the partisan probe.

House Republicans who ran their own investigation into the Capitol riot and the ensuing cover-up for then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s refusal to deploy the National Guard issued an additional criminal referral from the Jan. 6 saga last month. The House Administration Subcommittee on Oversight, led by Georgia Republican Barry Loudermilk, recommended that Cheney face a criminal probe from DOJ investigators for “witness tampering.” (Read more from “Liz Cheney Should Be Criminally Investigated For Her Corruption, Not Rewarded” HERE)

Biden Curses At Reporters Amid Bizarre Rant About Immigrants

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden lashed out on reporters Sunday evening while rambling about his administration, the border crisis and President-elect Donald Trump.

“Is white supremacy still the biggest threat to the United States?” one reporter asked Biden after signing the Social Security Fairness Act into law.

“One of the many threats — look, any kind of [inaudible] of supremacy is a threat to United States. Look, we are the most extensive, multicultural nation in the world. It’s the reason why we’re so strong. It’s the reason why we’re who we are. It’s not a problem. It’s not — it’s not in spite of — I mean, you know, we go all the way back, every major flow of immigrants, from my Irish ancestors in the 1840s to people the Italians came in the turn of the century. I mean, this has been — it’s who we are, and we are so connected to the rest of the world. Everywhere I go, [the] rest of the world gets it,” the president began in response to the question.

Biden then pivoted to talking about the border and his control of the migrant crisis.

“When I became president, the numbers came way down, number one. Number two, we had a circumstance where I pushed very hard for bipartisan agreement to put more people on the border, more, more secret service agent[s], and guess what? He’s on the phone saying, ‘Don’t do it. Don’t do it, [it will] make me look bad. That bill, that bill is ridiculous. It’s ridiculous,’” he continued.

LGBTQ Liberals Start Arming Themselves Over Baseless Fear of Being Placed in ‘Concentration Camps:’ Report

/0 Comments/in , /by

Gay and transgender liberals around the country are arming themselves over perceived concerns they’ll be rounded up and placed in “concentration camps” under a second Trump administration, according to a report.

The Philadelphia Inquirer on Sunday profiled several members of the emerging gun-toting left, who belong to groups with names like the Liberal Gun Club, the Socialist Rifle Association and Pink Pistols.

Although precise figures regarding LGBTQ gun ownership are tough to ascertain given the small cohort, the Liberal Gun Club told the outlet that it’s received “thousands” of firearms training requests since the election — more than in all of 2023 combined — and that about a quarter of them were from those in the LGBTQ community.

“Three months before the election, that’s when the alarm bells started to ring,” said a 24-year-old trans woman who recently decided to purchase a gun, identified by the outlet only as “A.”

“Minorities that are armed are more difficult to legally oppress,” she said, expressing relief that she’d be ready to fight back “in the event of hate crimes or terrorist attacks.” (Read more from “LGBTQ Liberals Start Arming Themselves Over Baseless Fear of Being Placed in ‘Concentration Camps:’ Report” HERE)

Canadian PM Justin Trudeau Expected to Announce Resignation After Mounting Calls for Him to Step Down: Report

/0 Comments/in , /by

Lefty Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is expected to announce his resignation from office this week, according to a report.

Three sources told the Globe and Mail, a Canadian outlet, on Sunday that Trudeau, 53, could reveal he’s leaving as Liberal Party Leader before a critical national caucus meeting on Wednesday.

It was unclear what day he could announce his resignation, but it reportedly could happen as early as Monday, the sources said.

The bombshell report comes as an embattled Trudeau has faced increasing calls for his resignation as a Donald Trump presidency – and the threat of 25% tariffs on all products north of the border – looms large.

The prime minister was struck with a devastating blow after his then-finance minister, Chrystia Freeland, quit last month over a deepening divide between the two over the future of Canada’s economy.
