Explains that CNN, et al., are not prevented from doing their jobs and reporting, just no longer have access to the briefing room, whereas he and his colleagues, as well as POTUS 45 were actually being deprived of 1st Amendment rights, and the same lib "journalists" at the time were squealing with demonic glee.

Moderate Democrat Sen. John Fetterman had a small slip during a panel in Austin, Texas where he referred to himself as a “life-long Republican” when asked why he hasn’t abandoned the Democrat Party to position himself as an Independent.

Young voters are financially drowning — and the life raft the Democratic Socialists of America is throwing them is an anchor in disguise. If Americans don’t see past this facade, they’ll be sinking even faster. ========= Young voters are right that the system is failing them. They’re wrong, though, about which system it is. What they’ve experienced isn’t free-market capitalism at all — it’s a quasi-socialist economy that’s let government displace the market in precisely the spending categories that have become least affordable. Turning further toward socialism means embracing the anchor that’s already weighing them down. Just look at where...

Israel’s military and intelligence forces killed the terrorist who kidnapped Noa Argamani and was seen on camera in a terrifying viral video during the Oct. 7, 2023, massacre, officials said Sunday.

Major League Baseball has approached the Trump administration about hosting a game at a national park, officials from the White House and the league confirmed to The Washington Post on Saturday. The White House said in a statement that MLB asked the administration about hosting a game at a national park, adding that the National Park Service has not granted a permit to do so.

Republicans are pouring money into more than three dozen US House races previously considered “safe” after internal polling showed they could be vulnerable in the November 3 election, according ​to three Republican operatives familiar with the party’s thinking. The shift is already starting to show in advertising reservations and campaign finance filings. Since September 1, major Republican groups and megadonors have begun ‌spending in at least 39 congressional races where they haven’t previously deployed money this cycle, a Reuters review of spending by some of the largest Republican political groups shows. Many of the candidates receiving new support sit in...

"With all prayer and petition pray at all times" (Eph. 6:18). Make prayer an ongoing part of your day. As important as prayer is to your Christian life, you might expect Paul to list it as another piece of spiritual armor, but he doesn't. Instead, he makes it all-pervasive by instructing us to pray at all times. That's our spiritual lifeline—the air our spirits breathe. The effectiveness of each piece of armor is directly related to the quality of our prayers. We see the importance of prayer throughout the New Testament. Jesus instructed His disciples to be on the alert...

Tech billionaire Bill Gates warned that artificial intelligence had the potential to kill a billion people in the wrong hands — as he joined the call to put safety restrictions on the technology. The Microsoft co-founder called for greater government oversight on AI during a talk with NBC’s “Meet the Press” on Sunday, where he suggested AI could be abused and lead to humanity’s near extinction. “AI is certainly powerful enough to drive events that cause a billion deaths,” he warned. “So even though it’s pretty hard to get to 100% [of humanity], there’s never been a weapon as powerful...

Explanation: What does the Andromeda galaxy really look like?
