If it seemed like a lot of the various "enforcement" actions by the Joe Biden-Kamala Harris administration put a bull's-eye on Christians, it was because they did.
A report from Fox News explains how an assessment by the American Principles Project showed that "nearly 70% of enforcement actions executed by" the Biden-Harris Education Department "targeted faith-based and career schools."

Using Chemistry, New Study Pokes Holes In The CO2-Induced Climate Catastrophe - Climate Change Dispatch
According to a new study, the notion that we can and must reduce atmospheric CO2 to avoid climate catastrophe (e.g., runaway global warming or ocean acidification) does not withstand probing academic scrutiny. - Kenneth RichardCarbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is a mitigation strategy proposing to sequester CO2 underground to reduce emissions to “net zero” by 2050.
- The practice [of CCS] is poised to cost tens of trillions of dollars over the coming decades...
- But can CCS actually do what is intended and reduce atmospheric CO2 concentrations?
- Chemistry says no, CCS “will not reduce the atmospheric concentration of CO2 at all.” From the study:

Mexico's president talks up her nation's efforts to fight illegal immigration * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh
Mexico's president talks up her nation's efforts to fight illegal immigration * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh:
Mexico already has worked to eliminate the caravans of thousands of illegal aliens from around the world approaching, and breaching, America's southern border. And it has worked on eliminating the flow of illegal drugs into the U.S.
So claims Claudia Sheinbaum, the president of Mexico, who was reacting to President-elect Donald Trump's promise of 25% tariffs should those migrant and drug problems continue as they have under Joe Biden and his border czar, Kamala Harris.
A report from Newsweek documents Sheinbaum's comments, including claims that those migrant caravans no longer are reaching the U.S. border.
Isn’t it amazing? As soon as Trump was elected and not officially the new president, both Canada and Mexico have suddenly seen the light and wish to stop illegal immigration into America.
Why? - Trump’s plan of tariffs on their goods. - Dave Agema
- Trump understands economics and how to leverage it to accomplish his goals.
Both our northern and southern borders are inundating America with illegals of which many are terrorists. Excellent move by Trump-something Biden never understood.
This is the difference between a politician and a businessman...

"Mexicans are worried that threats by Donald Trump to impose 25% tariffs could affect a wide range of iconic Mexican products and threaten entire regional economies. Avocado producers say tariffs will raise the price of their fruit, while Mexico’s Economy Secretary said U.S. consumers might have to pay $3,000 more per pickup truck.

RUNNING SCARED: Jack Smith steps down before Trump has a chance to FIRE him | Blaze Media:
Jack Smith’s cases investigating Trump’s attempts to challenge the 2020 election are falling apart — and now he’s stepping down from his position as special counsel before the president-elect takes office.
Mark Levin of “LevinTV” isn’t surprised.
“You know why? It’s simple. He’s an unconstitutional prosecutor. Donald Trump’s going to fire his ass. All the cases collapse, based on Department of Justice memos,” Levin says. “They collapse, these cases should never have been brought, the case in Florida was rightly thrown out.”
“That’s why they were in a rush to get these cases prosecuted. To get him in prison before the election, which also violated numerous Department of Justice rules,” he continues.

Here's how Christian broadcaster and bestselling author Eric Metaxas put it one day after a would-be assassin in Butler, Pennsylvania, shot Donald Trump, hitting him in the ear while missing his skull by literally half an inch – and only because Trump suddenly turned his head 90 degrees at the exact right moment:
"I have said repeatedly for months that those who hate Trump would stop at nothing to make sure he doesn't get back in to the White House, including trying to assassinate him. I have also said God's hand is on him, and would protect him, if God forbid someone did try to do that. Last night we saw that happen. His survival was nothing less than a miracle. So be assured that God is not finished with this nation.

President-elect Donald Trump has officially selected all 15 Cabinet nominees less than three weeks since he won the election.
Trump has selected several MAGA-aligned nominees to serve as his closest advisers in the upcoming administration. Although they have the president-elect's support, these nominees will still need to secure the Senate's approval.
With the incoming 53-seat Republican Senate majority, Trump's nominees can afford to lose only three votes during the confirmation process, assuming Vice President-elect JD Vance also participates in the vote. Some candidates are expected to breeze through the confirmation process, while others may be facing an uphill battle.

Fifty years ago, the mark of achievement was a college degree.
- Then I read a link from X about school officials and police in Houston, Texas, reporting and detaining a middle schooler for passing counterfeit currency and warning his grandmother, who gave him the money, for using counterfeit bills. The counterfeit money in question? A perfectly legal $2 bill. Produced until 1966, paused, and then re-issued beginning in 1976, it is rare these days, but is legal.
- Shortly thereafter, I ran across the "controversy" about how Pete Hegseth, Trump's putative SecDef nominee, is a known white supremacist. How do they know? Well, he has tattoos of a swastika on his chest and a well-known white supremacist phrase on his arm. The problem is the "swastika" is a Jerusalem cross and the phrase "Deus vult" (God wills it) are common Christian symbols originating at least a thousand years ago.
