Euphrates River Is Drying Up and Crisis Looms, Just as the Bible Warned

/1 Comment/in , , /by

In the Bible, it’s said when the Euphrates river runs dry then immense things are on the horizon, perhaps even the foretelling of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ and the rapture. Revelation 16:12 reads: “The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up to prepare the way for the kings from the East.”

Well, not to sound dramatic or anything, but it looks like that time is nigh.

Together with the Tigris, the Euphrates carves through present-day Syria and Iraq before emptying into the Persian Gulf. For thousands of years, the twin rivers have allowed farming communities and grand cities to flourish in Mesopotamia, which is considered the cradle of some of the world’s earliest civilizations.

However, for several decades, it’s become increasingly apparent that the Tigris–Euphrates river system is drying out. A government report in 2021 warned that the rivers could run dry by 2040 due to declining water levels and droughts driven by climate change.

NASA’s twin Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellites collected images of this area in 2013 and found that the Tigris and Euphrates river basins had lost 144 cubic kilometers (34 cubic miles) of freshwater since 2003.

Millennials Are Racking Up More Chronic Health Conditions Compared to Other Generations: Study

/1 Comment/in , , /by

Millennials are seeking more professional help for health issues than ever, a new study revealed.

Conducted by United Healthcare and Health Action Council, the study explored factors and claims data from policyholders ages 27 to 42 — a total of 126,000 individuals.

It compared current data from April 2021 through March 2022 to historical data dating back to 2012. The findings were presented in the groups’ sixth annual white paper.

Millennials with common chronic medical conditions and their children are “high utilizers” of the health care system compared to Generation X, the research found.

This includes 106% more hospital admissions for millennials with diabetes and 55% more emergency room (ER) and urgent care (UC) visits for hypertension. (Read more from “Millennials Are Racking Up More Chronic Health Conditions Compared to Other Generations: Study” HERE)

Study: Here’s How You Can Reduce Alzheimer’s Risk

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A new study has shown that people can significantly reduce their risk of Alzheimer’s and dementia by making healthier choices in the kitchen.

By following either Mediterranean or brain-focused Mediterranean-DASH Diet Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay (MIND) diets, people showed fewer physical signs of Alzheimer’s, CNN reported Wednesday. Further, the study showed that those who followed either diet had lowered their odds by almost 40% of accumulating enough plaques and tangles in brain tissue to be diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, the outlet reported.

The MIND diet has already been touted for years as the anti-memory loss diet. In a study conducted in 2015, MIND diet researchers monitored a group of older adults for up to 10 years from the Rush Memory and Aging Project (MAP) with annual dietary questionnaires.

“Researchers found a 53% lower rate of Alzheimer’s disease for those with the highest MIND scores. Even those participants who had moderate MIND scores showed a 35% lower rate compared with those with the lowest MIND scores,” the study showed.

This new research, however, shows that even small changes, can potentially have big effects. (Read more from “Study: Here’s How You Can Reduce Alzheimer’s Risk” HERE)

Jim Jordan Goes Scorched Earth on Dr. Fauci in Explosive Hearing; Here’s What the Former CDC Director Says Is Likely the Cause of ‘Greatest Pandemic the World Has Seen’ (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Trending Politics News. . .Rep. Jim Jordan went off today slamming Fauci and his attempt to cover up the “lab-leak theory.”

“Why did Dr. Fauci work so hard for just one of those theories? Why was it so important to push one over the other?” Jordan questioned. . .

On Wednesday, Jordan yelled, “Two of the signatures of the original email to Dr. Fauci, that’s Dr. Anderson and Dr. Gary, were awarded a $9 million grant for their research. So there’s 9 million reasons why they changed their position and the only intervening events a conference call with Dr. Fauci and Dr. Collins, again a call that Mr. Redfield was not allowed to be on, the head of CDC and on the Coronavirus Task Force, and then three months later, shazam, they get nine million bucks from Dr. Fauci. Well isn’t that something?” . . .

Jordan continued, “What was Dr. Fauci doing? He was trying to cover his backside and everybody knows it. And that’s the part that ticks us off because this is the highest paid guy in our government, getting all kinds of money to tell us things that were not accurate. Because we now know, U.S. tax dollars went to a lab in China, a lab that was not up to code, a lab that was doing gain of function research, and that’s where this thing most definitely came from.”

Here’s What the Former CDC Director Says Is Likely the Cause of ‘Greatest Pandemic the World Has Seen’ (VIDEO)

By Townhall. Testifying on Capitol Hill Wednesday morning, former Centers for Disease Control Director Robert Redfield was asked about the benefits of dangerous gain-of-function research — the frankensteining of viruses to make them more lethal or infectious to humans.

When asked if he could point to a single pandemic gain-of-function research had prevented, Redfield couldn’t give an example and instead pinned the latest pandemic on the practice.

Back in early 2020 in the first stages of the pandemic, Redfield publicly stated he believed the virus escaped from a lab. Despite his assertion being correct and now backed by the FBI and Department of Energy, he received death threats. He was also cut out of meetings with then National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Anthony Fauci and former Director of the National Human Genome Research Institute Francis Collins.

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Fox News host Tucker Carlson sent a series of private text messages to his colleague regarding his relationship with former President Trump, which was released by Dominion Voting Systems as part of its defamation suit against the network.

According to a January 4, 2021, text message, Carlson revealed he has a strong dislike toward Trump.

“I hate him passionately,” a text sent by Carlson to a colleague read. “What he’s good at is destroying things. He’s the undisputed world champion of that. He could easily destroy us if we play it wrong.”

Two days before the January 6 Capitol Hill protests, Carlson wrote that he was very close to being done having to talk about the former president on-air.

“We are very, very close to being able to ignore Trump most nights. I truly can’t wait,” Carlson wrote. (Read more from “Tucker Carlson Said He Hates Trump in Private Text Messages: ‘I Can’t Handle Much More of This'” HERE)

Opportunist and Leftwing Political Activist Alexander Vindman Accused of Trying to Profit off Ukraine War With Defense Contracts

/2 Comments/in , , /by

Retired Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, who made waves as a witness during the first impeachment proceedings of former President Donald Trump, is now being accused of trying to profit off the war in Ukraine by pitching lucrative defense contracts through his private company.

In a statement to Fox News Digital, Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., who was one of the sharpest critics of Vindman throughout the impeachment investigation, blasted him as an “opportunist,” and accused him of undertaking continuous efforts to try and personally profit from his attacks against the Trump administration to his reported dealings in Ukraine.

The first impeachment of Trump centered around a July 2019 call in which Trump pressed Ukrainian President Zelenskyy to launch investigations into the Biden family’s actions and business dealings in Ukraine—specifically Hunter Biden’s ventures with Ukrainian natural gas firm Burisma Holdings. The president’s request came after millions in U.S. military aid to Ukraine had been frozen, which Democrats and some witnesses, including Vindman, cited as a quid pro quo arrangement.

“When conservatives speak the truth, the mainstream media panics and desperately attempts to provide cover for the left. They did this for Alexander Vindman, just like they did for Hunter Biden, Dr. Fauci and teachers unions,” Blackburn said, referencing liberal media outlets’ staunch defense of Vindman throughout his time as a witness during the impeachment investigation.

“Alexander Vindman has always been a political activist and opportunist masquerading behind his career. He saw an opening for personal fame and profited by exploiting the media’s outrage against President Trump,” she accused.

Stanford’s Class of 2026 Doesn’t ‘Look Like America’; U.S. is “Publicly Committing Suicide”

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The demographic profile of Stanford University’s class of 2026 is out, with 1,736 matriculated students in the freshman class of one of the world’s most prestigious universities. But as some perceptive critics were quick to notice, one key demographic is disproportionately underrepresented: While whites make up more than 50 percent of the nation’s adolescent population, per 2019 Office of Population Affairs numbers, they were only 22 percent of Stanford’s class of 2026. A Twitter user by the name of Fischer King was one of the first to flag the disparity, adding: “Now I’m speculating, but admitted white men are likely connected — legacies, or just bought way in. The rural math genius like John Nash — he has no chance.”

Progressive journalist Elizabeth Spiers, on the other hand, suggests this is simply meritocracy at work:

Of course, if Spiers and her counterparts believe that the underrepresentation of whites is simply the result of merit, they would ostensibly be fine with ending affirmative action — after all, the stated purpose of affirmative action was “to further a compelling interest in obtaining the educational benefits that flow from a diverse student body,” as Justice Sandra Day O’Connor wrote in the majority opinion for the Supreme Court’s 2003 ruling on the matter, Grutter v. Bollinger. Now that said “diversity” is apparently attainable without the artificial engineering of race-conscious admissions, we can return to colorblind candidate selection. Right?

Spiers, for her part, goes on to attribute the fact that there are more women than men in Stanford’s class of 2026 — 54 to 46 percent — to the fact “that girls outperform boys in school,” maintaining: “Given that we know that empirically, anyone who is confused about why there might be slightly more women than men is just asserting their own biases.” Excellent: We’ve relegated Ibram X. Kendi’s “all disparities are proof of discrimination” — “when I see racial disparities, I see racism” — to the dustbin of history where it belongs. Overrepresentation of one group, and underrepresentation of another, in a particular institution is no longer proof, in and of itself, of systemic bias. I look forward to Spiers extending that logic to the nation’s prison system, policing, crime, income inequality, marriage rates, Fortune 500 C-suites, the so-called “wage gap,” and heavily male-dominated careers in STEM.

Biden Guilty of Treason, Declares Horowitz in Scathing Column

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Conservative publisher David Horowitz deemed President Joe Biden guilty of treason in a scathing new column on his FrontPageMag.com news site.

Horowitz, the founder of the David Horowitz Freedom Center and best-selling author of several books including “Dark Agenda: The War to Destroy Christian America” and “I Can’t Breathe: How a Racial Hoax is Killing America,” takes aim at Biden in a no-holds-barred column entitled “How Should We Regard the President’s Treason?” In it, he blasts Biden for allowing deadly fentanyl to flow across a porous Mexican border, bungling the COVID pandemic by being weak on China, and botching the pullout from Afghanistan.

“The list of such cover-ups to protect the Chinese Communist dictatorship is long and depressing,” Horowitz writes on the site, which is published by his Freedom Center. “It includes the White House’s stone-walling of congressional efforts to investigate the origins of the pandemic that killed 9 million people globally. It includes similar stone-walling on otherwise inexplicable blunders that turned Afghanistan and its hapless citizens over to the Taliban and China, along with seven multi-billion-dollar air bases and tens of thousands of advanced weapons, and that made hostages of those who helped us during the 20-year war.” (Read more from “Biden Guilty of Treason, Declares Horowitz in Scathing Column” HERE)

Tucker Carlson Says Jan. 6 Footage ‘Demolishes’ Claims of Insurrection, Exposes Media Lies (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By The Blaze. On Monday night’s episode of his show on the Fox News Channel, conservative commentator Tucker Carlson aired some of the surveillance footage from the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) has granted Carlson access to the video. Carlson noted during his show on Monday that producers had enjoyed “unfettered access” to the surveillance footage.

While media outlets, Democrats, and some Republicans have described the events of Jan. 6 as an “insurrection,” Carlson asserted that the footage “demolishes that claim.”

Some of the footage shows police officers near Jacob Chansley, widely referred to as the “QAnon Shaman,” whose image has become ubiquitous in the wake of the Jan. 6 episode. Chansley was arrested on January 9, 2021, according to the Justice Department.

Carlson also aired footage showing Officer Brian Sicknick walking in the Capitol, and Carlson claimed that the January 6 Committee had been aware that the man had been “walking normally … after he was supposedly murdered by Trump supporters.”

Tucker Carlson Releases Exclusive Jan. 6 Footage, Says Politicians, Media Lied About Sicknick, ‘Qanon Shaman’

By Fox News. Tucker Carlson released never-before-seen footage from the Jan. 6, 2021 riots at Capitol Hill that appear to dispel several narratives pushed by the Democrat-controlled House Select Committee and the legacy media.

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy granted “Tucker Carlson Tonight” an exclusive first look to over 40,000 hours of security camera footage from the Capitol Building that were hidden from the public for over two years. On Monday, Carlson offered the first glimpses of footage involving key figures from that day.

Carlson concluded the footage proves that lawmakers and the media were “lying” about the events that took place on Jan. 6.

The first batch of footage showed Trump supporters peacefully touring the building, “sightseers” as Carlson put it, but the footage of the rioters overwhelmingly consumed the news coverage of Jan. 6, which many in D.C. have compared to 9/11 and the attack on Pearl Harbor.

Capitol police officers were seen escorting Jacob Chansley, a Navy veteran widely referred to in the liberal media as the “QAnon Shaman,” around the building without incident. Carlson reported that officers were seen showing Chansley around, even trying to open locked doors for him. At one point, at least nine police officers were seen in close proximity to Chansley, and none of them slowed him down, as Carlson noted.
