Lawmakers Demand U.S. Punish Country for Criminalizing Christianity as a ‘Hate Crime’ (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Six Republican U.S. representatives Wednesday issued a letter demanding that the United States take action against Finland for criminalizing Christianity through its hate crimes laws.

Prosecutors in Finland are pressing charges against a Protestant bishop and a member of the national Parliament for publicly stating what the Bible teaches about sex and marriage.

Bishop Juhana Pohjola and Parliament member Paivi Rasanen face fines and up to two years in prison under “hate crimes” laws that effectively criminalize speech and set the government up as the arbiter of what religious beliefs are legal in Finland. One of the charges against Rasanen is the alleged crime of posting a Bible verse on Twitter.

“Free people should not have to violate and recant their deepest convictions to remain part of a free society,” the U.S. lawmakers write in response to this situation. “True religious liberty both protects an individual’s right both to hold beliefs that are unpopular with the prevailing cultural winds of the world, but also their right to live out authentically and profess the truths they hold dear without fear of government interference. Those rights are fundamental and unalienable to the whole human race, and it is critical to the flourishing of both the human soul and civil society.”

Rasanen and Pohjola have each been interrogated for hours by Finnish officials for stating beliefs that Christians have held for thousands of years. They will stand trial in January.

“Any time a black person says anything that doesn’t go with the democratic narrative, they said that person is carrying water for white supremacists,” Rogan told Von. “They’re out of their fu**ing minds.”

New Inflation Numbers Are Here and They’re Really Bad (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

New wholesale inflation numbers from September are in and once again prove the rapid increase in prices for everyday items isn’t “transitory” as President Joe Biden has repeatedly claimed.

Wholesale prices rose by 8.6 percent compared to September 2020, matching the largest increase on record.

“The Labor Department reported Tuesday that its producer price index — which measures inflation before it hits consumers — rose 0.6% last month from September, pushed higher by surging gasoline prices. Excluding volatile food and energy prices, wholesale inflation was up 0.4% in October from September and 6.8% from a year ago,” the Associated Press reports. “More than 60% of the September-October increase in overall producer prices was caused by a 1.2% increase in the price of wholesale goods as opposed to services. A 6.7% jump in wholesale gasoline prices helped drive goods prices up.”

Reporter Says Photos Show Pence Hiding During Capitol Riot

/0 Comments/in , /by

ABC Chief Washington Correspondent Jonathan Karl says there are photos of Mike Pence hiding underground during the Capitol riot that the former vice president’s team did not want him to publish.

The journalist, who is previewing a forthcoming book, Betrayal: The Final Act of the Trump Show, described to late-night talk show host Stephen Colbert how he got in touch with an “official White House photographer” who was with Pence during the several hours “he was hidden away in the bowels of the Capitol in a place no one has ever really known.” Karl said he saw all of the photographs for himself.

“It is wild to see that he was in a loading dock in an underground parking garage beneath the Capitol complex,” Karl said in a CBS clip shared by The Late Show on Monday. “No place to sit. No desk. No chairs. Nothing. He was in this concrete … parking garage with his family.”

“This is the vice president of the United States, and he’s … holed up in a basement,” he added.

In one of the photos, Karl said an aide was showing Pence a tweet from former President Donald Trump slamming his vice president for not having “the courage” to try and overturn the results of the 2020 election while he was presiding in the Senate chamber over lawmakers certifying Joe Biden’s victory on the day of the riot.

WATCH: Kenosha Detective Admits Kyle Rittenhouse Only Shot People Chasing Him

/0 Comments/in , /by

Kenosha Police Department Detective Ben Antaramian, a prosecution witness, admitted under cross-examination Monday in Kenosha County Court that Kyle Rittenhouse only shot people who chased him through the streets during Black Lives Matter riots last Aug. 25.

Rittenhouse, who was 17 at the time, is on trial for murder and related charges after shooting and killing two people and wounding another rifle in a melee shortly before midnight. Rittenhouse’s lawyers say that he was acting in self-defense.

Earlier in the day, Gaige Grosskreutz, the man who was wounded and survived, admitted under cross-examination by defense attorney Corey Chirafisi that he had pulled his own gun first, and had pointed it at Rittenhouse, on the ground.

The prosecution then called Detective Antaramian, and Chirafisi went to work again, eliciting an admission that police declined to execute a search warrant on Grosskreutz, and that Rittenhouse had only shot people who were pursuing him.

Chirafisi systematically worked through the other possibilities: “You’d agree there are multiple times, based on the surrounding circumstances, that he doesn’t pull the trigger, right?” After Antaramian seemed reluctant to agree, Chirafisi cited an example in which an unarmed person ran up to Rittenhouse, and then stepped back, and the latter did not fire.

Congressman Posts Strange ‘Anime’ Video of Him Attacking AOC, Biden (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

A Republican congressman tweeted a digitally edited video that shows an anime-style version of him slashing Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and lunging with two swords at President Joe Biden.

Rep. Paul Gosar, Re-Tx., was slammed for posting the strange video and flagged by Twitter for violating the social media platforms rules about hateful conduct.

But the video is still visible with a message now affixed to the tweet saying Twitter “determined that it may be in the public’s interest for the Tweet to remain accessible.”

The video shared Sunday is a take on “Attack on Titan,” created by Hajime Isayama, according to The Hill.

“Any anime fans out there?” Gosar wrote in the post with the 92-second video, which also splices footage of migrants at the border. (Read more from “Congressman Posts Strange ‘Anime’ Video of Him Attacking AOC, Biden” HERE)

‘Black Trees Matter’ — VP Kamala Harris Asks NASA if It Can Track Trees by Race for ‘Environmental Justice’ (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Vice President Kamala Harris asked NASA if it could use its satellites to track trees “by race” in various neighborhoods as part of “environmental justice” during a recent display on climate change, leading many to ridicule the vice president online and even giving rise to a “Black Trees Matter” hashtag.

Harris, who serves as chair of the National Space Council, visited Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, on Friday “to see vital climate science work.”

As she met with scientists and engineers and received a firsthand look at how the climate is studied by the space program as well as how it provides data concerning planetary changes and their impacts, the vice president declared, “I truly believe space activity is climate action.”

In a clip originally shared by Deputy Director of Rapid Response at Republican National Committee (RNC) Jake Schneider, Harris is seen interrupting a presentation in order to share her “woke” inquiry.

“Can you measure trees — part of that data that you are referring to, [and it’s an issue of] EJ, environmental justice — that you can also track by race their averages in terms of the number of trees in the neighborhoods where people live?”

WATCH: Former West Point Cadets’ Reasons for Leaving Academy Should Horrify Every Red-Blooded American

Former West Point Cadet Says Military Academy ‘Glorifies Ignorant Submission and Unethical Behavior’

By Fox News. Former cadet at the United States Military Academy Hannah MacDonald said that West Point “glorifies ignorant submission and unethical behavior” Thursday on “Hannity,” joining two other former cadets in their criticism of the academy.

For MacDonald and her fellow former cadets Nickaylah Sampson and Willow Brown, enrolling at the nation’s oldest service academy was a dream come true. . .

Sampson remembered talk of briefs about “White rage” and “extremism.” The former cadet found such discussions “ridiculous,” saying “[i]t really had nothing to do with…bettering yourself as an Army officer.”

MacDonald recounted tutoring students writing essays about critical race theory and socialism this fall, explaining that the students “didn’t agree” with such ideas but “thought their professors would enjoy [their essays] because [they were] in line with the books they were reading.”

Her disappointment was especially profound given her Christian upbringing, in which she said she was taught that “there’s no greater love than to lay down your life for someone else.” (Read more from “Former West Point Cadet Says Military Academy ‘Glorifies Ignorant Submission and Unethical Behavior’” HERE)

Former West Point Cadets’ Reasons for Leaving Academy Should Horrify Every Red-Blooded American

By Biz Pac Review. On Fox News’ “Hannity” Thursday, host Sean Hannity spoke with three former West Point cadets who were effectively driven from the military academy because of its philosophical shift in values as well as for refusing to submit to the COVID vaccine.

Although the stated policy of the academy was that vaccinations were optional for cadets, the trio nevertheless endured targeting and harassment which eventually took a toll on their well-being and paralyzed their military career endeavors. It all came to a head on September 27th, following the U.S. government-imposed vaccine mandate.

Cadets were then “instructed in a meeting to either get vaccinated, file for an exemption or separate from the academy,” Hannity said. According to several cadets in attendance, they were denied legal counsel after being assured they could acquire it.

Willow Brown, who left the academy in the spring, explained the reasoning behind her decision to leave West Point.

“I went to the academy hoping to serve my country and bring the fight to the enemy. I found myself instead in the classroom learning about how to be more sensitive, and this woke ideology that had taken over West Point really surprised me.” (Read more from “Former West Point Cadets’ Reasons for Leaving Academy Should Horrify Every Red-Blooded American” HERE)

Second Grader Suspended for Over a Month After Violating Mask Rule (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

A Florida second-grader was reportedly suspended a total of 36 days and disciplined in school for violating the school district’s mask mandate.

Fiona, a student in Palm Beach County, was served her first punishment Aug. 31, according to The Free Press. Since then, she has faced other in-school and out-of-school disciplinary actions.

“Fiona has changed her priorities a bit and is on a mission to take back not only her rights but every American child’s constitutional rights from the tyrant school board being operated by a financial expert who has no knowledge of how to safely and effectively run the 10th largest school district in America,” Fiona’s mother, Bailey Lashells, said, reported The Free Press.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis announced an executive order in July banning mask mandates in schools. The order protected parents’ rights to choose whether or not to mask their children while in school. A Florida judge ultimately shot down the order.

Starting Nov. 15, parents will be able to opt their children out of wearing masks at school, the school district announced Thursday in a press release. (Read more from “Second Grader Suspended for Over a Month After Violating Mask Rule” HERE)
