George W. Bush Eulogizes George H.W. Bush: ‘the Best Father a Son or Daughter Could Have’

/0 Comments/in , /by

On Wednesday, former President George W. Bush gave a moving eulogy for his father, the late former President George H. W. Bush, at the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C.

“To his very last days, dad’s life was instructive,” Bush said. “As he aged, he taught us how to grow with dignity, humor, and kindness. And when the good Lord finally called, how to meet him with courage and with the joy of the promise of what lies ahead.”

“He showed me what it means to be a president who serves with integrity, leads with courage, and acts with love in his heart for the citizens of our country. When the history books are written, they will say that George H.W. Bush was a great president of the United States.”

“The best father a son or daughter could have,” he said in closing.

Watch: Chris Pratt Reads Luke’s Gospel at Disneyland’s Candlelight Ceremony, Speaks of God’s Love for His Children

/0 Comments/in , /by

For some inexplicable reason that can only be described as a Christmas miracle, Disneyland has continued to uphold its overtly religious Candlelight ceremony every year since the park opened in 1955. A ceremony filled by light and wonder, where visitors to the “happiest place on earth” are invited to remember the holiest event in history, complete with traditional Christmas hymns like “Silent Night” and a reading of Luke’s Gospel from a celebrity guest.

This year’s reading was offered by none other than Chris Pratt from Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy.” Past narrators include Darth Vader’s alter-ego James Earl Jones, Dick Van Dyke and Ginnifer Goodwin, whose vocal talents could be heard in “Zootopia.”

According to Theme Park Insider, the annual Candlelight processional offered at Disneyland is markedly different than the one offered at Disney World’s Epcot. For 63 years, the Disneyland event has remained “an exclusive affair, playing just four shows across two nights on the first weekend in December.” No seats are offered to the public and it’s invitation-only. Spectators, however, can watch the show in designated standing room-viewing areas in the perimeter of Main Street’s Town Square.

“The show begins with a live orchestra performing an overture of holidays songs, as the choir proceeds down Main Streets,” reports TPI. “As they enter Town Square, we hear the 600 voices for the first time, as the orchestra accompanies their procession on to the stage, illuminated by their candles and the Star of Bethlehem on the Main Street train station.”

“More than a dozen local school, church, and community choirs joined singers from the Disneyland and Walt Disney Studios cast,” the report continues. “The program includes all the greatest hits of the holiday choral repertoire, including ‘Away in a Manger,’ ‘Angels We Have Heard on High,’ ‘What Child Is This?’ and ‘Silent Night,’ interspersed with the telling of the Christmas story from the Bible.” (Read more from “Watch: Chris Pratt Reads Luke’s Gospel at Disneyland’s Candlelight Ceremony, Speaks of God’s Love for His Children” HERE)

Climate Hysteria: U.N. Climate Summit Warns Climate Change Is Going to Kill Everything

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Daily Wire. Naturalist Sir David Attenborough sounded the climate change hysteria alarm on Monday at the opening ceremony of the United Nations Climate Conference, warning that civilization is about to collapse.

“Right now, we are facing a man-made disaster of global scale,” Attenborough began. “Our greatest threat in thousands of years: Climate change.”

“If we don’t take action, the collapse of our civilizations and the extinction of much of the natural world is on the horizon,” Attenborough claimed. “The world’s people have spoken. Their message is clear. Time is running out. They want you, the decision-makers, to act now.” .

Climate Change Could Lead to ‘a Collapse of Our Civilization’ According to Sir David Attenborough

By USA Today. . .The 92-year-old TV presenter blamed humans for the “disaster of global scale, our greatest threat in thousands of years.”

The United Nations’ conference, known as COP24 (the informal name for the 24th Conference of the Parties), is an annual gathering of the world’s top experts on climate change.

Also speaking at the conference, the head of the U.N. didn’t have many encouraging words, either: “Even as we witness devastating climate impacts causing havoc across the world, we are still not doing enough, nor moving fast enough, to prevent irreversible and catastrophic climate disruption,” U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres told the thousands of delegates from almost 200 countries who gathered in the city of Katowice, Poland.

“We need a complete transformation of our global energy economy, as well as how we manage land and forest resources,” Guterres said. “We need to embrace low-carbon, climate-resilient sustainable development.” (Read more from “Climate Change Could Lead to ‘a Collapse of Our Civilization’ According to Sir David Attenborough” HERE)

By Daily Wire. Caravan migrants from Central America that are stuck in Tijuana, Mexico are reportedly trashing the area, leaving behind bottles of urine and mountains of trash.

The news comes as migrants are facing increasing backlash and negative attitudes from local Mexican residents, as the overwhelming majority of Mexican residents — 73% — hold negative views towards the migrants, according to a poll from the Mexican newspaper El Universal.

Tijuana Shuts Down Migrant Caravan Shelter

By Washington Times. The city government of Tijuana announced Saturday that it has closed down a migrant shelter at a sports complex close to the U.S. border that once held about 6,000 Central Americans who hope to get into the U.S.

Officials said all the migrants were being moved to a former concert venue much farther from the border. The city said in a statement the sports complex shelter was closed because of “bad sanitary conditions.”

Experts had expressed concerns about unsanitary conditions that had developed at the partly flooded sports complex, where the migrants had been packed into a space adequate for half their numbers. Mud, lice infestations and respiratory infections were rampant.

The remaining migrants were taken by bus to the new shelter about 10 miles from the border crossing at Otay Mesa and 14 miles from San Ysidro, near where people line up to file applications for asylum in the United States.

Tijuana officials had said earlier that nobody would be forced to move to the new facility, a large building and concrete patio known as El Barretal that was used for concerts and other events until about six years ago. But they also warned they would stop offering food and medical services at the Benito Juarez sports complex. (Read more from “Tijuana Shuts Down Migrant Caravan Shelter” HERE)

Watch: Ocasio-Cortez Compares Election Victory to Something out of This World – Literally

/0 Comments/in , /by

Democratic Socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez rambled on Friday that her election victory was on par with the United States landing on the moon, something that she falsely thinks was a political victory for the Democrats over the Republicans.

Ocasio-Cortez made the remarks at a press conference for the far-left Sunshine Movement in Washington where she made incoherent statements. . .

“Because in every moment when our country has reached the depths of darkness, in every moment when we were at the brink, at the cusp of an abyss and we did not know if we would be capable of saving ourselves, we have,” Ocasio-Cortez continued. “We’ve done it. We’ve dug deep and we’ve done what we thought was impossible.” (Read more from “Watch: Ocasio-Cortez Compares Election Victory to Something out of This World – Literally” HERE)

Watch: Democrat Rep Calls for Death of GOP Rep’s Family

/0 Comments/in , /by

An Illinois state Democratic lawmaker is facing increasing pressure to resign after she called for the deaths of a Republican lawmaker’s family during a floor speech this week.

Democrat Rep. Stephanie Kifowit said she wanted to pump a “broth of Legionella” into Republican Rep. Peter Breen’s water system so his wife and children would “be infected” and “ultimately die.”

“I would like to make him a broth of Legionella and pump it into the water system of his loved ones so that they can be infected, they can be mistreated, they can sit and suffer by getting aspirin instead of being properly treated and ultimately die,” Kifowit said in a fit of rage.

Kifowit’s horrifying remark “came just before the Illinois House voted 71-36 to override Gov. Bruce Rauner’s amendatory veto of a bill to increase the cap the state pays in civil litigation cases from $100,000 to $2 million,” The Chicago Sun-Times reported.

“How dare you concoct up some sort of story about brewing up some batch of Legionella and having him feed it to his family,” [Republican Rep. Jeanne] Ives fired back. “How dare you take the discussion and the debate about a very serious bill that has a huge cost consequence on both sides, both for the victim and the state taxpayers. How dare you take an honest debate about an issue and then wish death on my colleague Peter Breen, his wife and his two adopted kids.”

Watch: Drag Queen Admits to ‘Grooming’ Children at Library

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Daily Wire. The so-called Drag Queen Story Hour (DQSH) program, wherein grown men dressed as overly-dramatized and sexualized women read to children in public libraries, have popped up across the nation within the last five years or so. Parents, understandably, have raised serious questions and concerns over the general over-sexualized nature of the drag queens and clear transgender agenda being pushed on impressionable young minds.

These concerns were horrifyingly validated in September by drag queen Dylan Pontiff, who proudly told the Lafayette City-Parish Council in Louisiana that drag queens at these story hours “are trying to groom the next generation.”

“This is going to be the grooming of the next generation. We are trying to groom the next generation,” admitted Pontiff.

According to LifeSite News, Pontiff, whose drag alter ego is named Santana Pilar Andrews, helped organize a DQSH events for children as young as three years old at the Lafayette Public Library in October.

“I’m a person who’s been through a lot in their lives [sic]. I’ve been bullied most of my life for being a gay male, not necessarily being what a typical man is, and I thought that this event shows people, and shows children, especially at that age, that understanding that people are different than you doesn’t make them necessarily un-normal or not good,” Pontiff told a room filled with Lafayette residents.

Opponents renew fight to end Drag Queen Story Hour at Houston libraries

By Click 2 Houston. . .The event is facing new backlash a month after a federal judge tossed out a conservative group’s lawsuit against the city’s library and Mayor Sylvester Turner in an attempt to stop it.

Linda Rodriguez, with the group Mass Resistance, calls the program brainwashing and destructive.

“Children are great imitators. Let’s give them something great to imitate like moral and ethical values, not drag queen lifestyles,” Rodriguez said. (Read more from “Opponents renew fight to end Drag Queen Story Hour at Houston libraries” HERE)

Watch: Caravan Migrants Reveal How Miserable They Are

/0 Comments/in , /by

Members of the “migrant caravan” currently camped out in Tijuana, Mexico, just across the border from San Diego, California, told MSNBC late Tuesday that they were told making entrance into the United States would be much easier and that they’re ready to make the long journey back home.

The MSNBC reporter on scene claims that after speaking with migrants biding their time in shelters near the border, that many of the would-be asylum seekers were told that crossing the border would be a relatively painless process, and that most of them would be eligible for available work programs designed to help them integrate into American culture and society.

That didn’t turn out to be the case; it appears many of the members of the “migrant caravan” were sold a bill of goods, and are just coming to realize that crossing the border will be much more difficult than they imagined, particularly in light of the weekend’s violence.

The problem has become so pronounced — and demand to return to Honduras has gotten so high — that the government of Mexico is setting up tents in migrant camps along the border, helping those who might want to return to obtain safe passage back to Honduras and Guatemala, where the caravan originated.

The Mexican government is also keeping offers of temporary amnesty and temporary work visas open for those who are disillusioned with the caravan’s goals but feel they cannot return to war- and drug-ravaged Central America.

Something Bizarre Happened After the Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony at the White House

/0 Comments/in , , /by

President Donald Trump abandoned his protective press pool after the Christmas lighting ceremony at the White House and sped away in his motorcade, according to social media reports.

Anita Kumar, the White House correspondent for McClatchy, tweeted about being left behind in the protective pool and how unprecedented and bizarre it is. . .

The 96th annual Christmas tree lighting ceremony apparently went off without a hitch, but the president’s motorcade left hastily afterward. The White House provided no details as to why the president was whisked away to the White House.

Trump led the audience assembled in a countdown until first lady Melania Trump flipped the switch to turn on the lights on the Christmas tree.

Steve Herman, the White House bureau chief for The Voice of America, explained that the White House works with the Secret Service in order to provide the protective pool an opportunity to cover the president from the motorcade.

Trump Responds to Dire Predictions in the Latest U.S. Climate Report

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Donald Trump disagreed with the dire economic projections in the U.S. government’s latest climate report.

“I don’t believe it,” Trump said when asked by a reporter outside the White House on Monday if he agreed with the latest National Climate Assessment (NCA) report’s projections that global warming could hurt the U.S. economy.

“And here’s the other thing — you’re going to have to have China, and Japan, and all of Asia, and all of these other countries — you know, it — it addresses our country,” Trump said.

“Right now, we’re at the cleanest we’ve ever been, and that’s very important to me. But if we’re clean but every other place on Earth on is dirty, that’s not so good,” Trump said. “So I want clean air. I want clean water — very important.”

The Trump administration released the NCA Friday, launching a wave of media coverage on the report’s dire predictions. The report claims that “global greenhouse gas emissions is expected to cause substantial net damage to the U.S. economy throughout this century,” including a 10 percent hit to gross domestic product (GDP) in one extreme scenario.
