UNIQUELY EVIL? Why Islam is NOT a religion of peace | Blaze Media

UNIQUELY EVIL? Why Islam is NOT a religion of peace | Blaze Media

Ahuman being’s faith is the foundation of their worldview, which is why Steve Deace of the "Steve Deace Show” believes “it is vitally important to understand where Islam and the Quran are coming from.”

“What it believes, what it claims, and then what it believes and claims about the biblical worldview that this country and Western civilization was founded upon. Vitally important to know this because we’re mingling these two cultures now at rates never done before,” Deace explains.

Americans’ Dementia Cases Forecast to Double by 2060, Study Finds

Findings show that Americans’ risk of developing some form of dementia after age 55 stands at 42 percent. - Jack Phillips 
“All of our research suggests what you do in midlife really matters,” Dr. Josef Coresh of New York University’s Langone Health, who co-authored the study, said...
  • The study noted that a high risk of developing dementia is also linked to high rates of diabetes and hypertension, an unhealthy diet, lack of exercise, obesity, poor mental health, and genetic factors...
Other Key Findings
  • Only 4 percent of people developed dementia between the ages of 55 and 75, which Coresh identified as a key 20-year window for protecting brain health. 
  • Among those who survived common health threats until age 75, the dementia risk increased to 20 percent by age 85 and 42 percent between ages 85 and 95.
  • Overall, the lifetime risk of developing dementia after age 55 was 35 percent for men and 48 percent for women, the researchers concluded...

Who really runs the world? Meet the puppet masters behind the puppet masters | Blaze Media

Le Cercle is a shadowy network of global elites that makes the CIA look like the DMV.
Bilderberg recently announced plans to be more open and friendly to the press — but what about Le Cercle?

If Bilderberg is the shadowy conference everyone whispers about, Le Cercle is the one that doesn’t even make it into the conversation. For many readers, this may be the first time you’ve encountered the name.

How dare he!-----White jazz professor canceled for criticizing critical race theory plans lawsuit | The College Fix

Students claim comments ‘affected their mental health’; petition demands his dismissal - Dave Huber - Associate Editor 
Martin Speake, a U.K. “composer, saxophonist, academic and educator” specializing in jazz, early last year had responded to a request for feedback regarding Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance‘s “BLM/anti-racist policies and initiatives.”
  • Speake noted in his email response “that there is no systemic racial inequality in the UK jazz scene,” and that critical race theory is “divisive and dangerous.”
  • He concluded with Martin Luther King Jr.’s quote about judging people “by the content of their character,” not their skin color.
Here’s what followed, according to the professor:
...Speake claims Trinity Laban “threatened disciplinary action” against him, that students boycotted his classes, and that the London Jazz Orchestra (for whom he was lead alto saxophonist for 15 years) requested he take a leave of absence...
A Change.org petition created by “Distressed Student” notes he/she was “deeply affected” by Speake’s message that “perpetuated harmful and defamatory narratives about black musicians in the jazz industry.”...

They ruin EVERYTHING they touch!-----Democrats Killed Los Angeles And No One In Power Cares

The horror that has hit Los Angeles is something we haven’t seen since Mrs. O’Leary’s cow kicked over that lantern in 1871.  - Derek Hunter 
Back then, Chicago burned to the ground and roughly 300 people died. 
That was more than 150 years ago, things were different then, and things are very different now. 
There is literally zero reason for a repeat, in any respect, of what happened in Chicago, and yet we are getting just that because of the mentality of the radical progressive leftists who’ve run that city for all but 8 of the last 64 years.
  • The Great Chicago Fire makes sense in a weird way. Wood and brick were the building materials of choice back then, and wood burns like mad. There were no zoning laws to speak of; buildings were clustered together because “traffic” was a bunch of horses stopping for water or a poop...
But we aren’t living 150 years ago...

Minnesota says it can decide what constitutional rights people have * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh

"Minnesota's refusal to honor other states' lawfully issued firearm permits places an unreasonable burden on the Second Amendment rights of individuals like Mr. McCoy and Mr. Johnson who regularly cross state lines in the course of their work," explained Loren Seehase, a lawyer for the center.

"There is no other constitutional right that individuals are prohibited from exercising until they've obtained permission from the state. No one loses their right to free speech or freedom of religion by simply driving from Texas to Minnesota—so why should they lose their right to self-defense?"

Important read!-----Michigan’s Reading Proficiency Is Abysmal, But Nearly Every Public School Teacher Is Deemed “Effective”

In Flint, less than 4% of third graders tested proficient in English, yet not a single teacher got an “ineffective” rating - By Tom Gantert 
  • Michigan school administrators and teachers received top marks from State Department of Education evaluations in 2024. 
  • Meanwhile, more than 60% of Michigan’s third graders failed to meet state standards for reading proficiency this spring.
  • Public education in Michigan has a serious accountability problem...
Meanwhile, the state’s conventional public schools want to gut transparency and accountability for their own performance.
Consider Flint’s public schools, where just eight of the 220 third-grade students (3.6%) who took the 2023-24 MSTEP assessment were proficient in English language arts.
  • While the students struggled mightily, Flint Community School’s teacher assessments told a different story. Not a single Flint teacher, of 154 evaluated in 2023-24, was found to be either “minimally effective” or “ineffective.” 
  • Instead, 35% of teachers reached the top rating of “highly effective,” with the remaining 55% receiving the second highest rating, “effective.”..

Defense Department ignored COVID-19 'herd immunity' data that might have prevented military vaccine mandate * WorldNetDaily * by J.M. Phelps

Kupper was not surprised, he said, considering it "par for the course of everything DOD was doing at the time." More than that, he said, "It pisses me off." Admittedly, he is most frustrated about "how the government, military and supposed leaders can disobey the law and refuse to right the wrongs they've done."

Hmmm. Why? Another government scam?

 

Trump's 'Crazy' Ideas Not So Crazy After All | ZeroHedge

Why is it that people are always calling for someone to think "outside the box," then when someone does, say, "Aaaak! He thought outside the box!" - Authored by Lawrence Kadish via The Gatestone Institute 
In that view, President-elect Donald J. Trump has already committed (at least) three heresies: Buy Greenland, stop China from controlling the Panama Canal and deepen America's affiliation with Canada.
All three ideas are neither crazy nor even new.
  • President Harry S. Truman looked at acquiring Greenland in 1946.
  • Thomas Jefferson, after the Louisiana Purchase, proposed buying Cuba – just think how the Cubans would be prospering now, politically and economically, if that deal had gone through. 
  • Those acquisitions didn't take place but in 1917, the US did acquire Denmark's Virgin Islands for $25 million. As historian Stephen Press writes,
"As secretary of state, John Quincy Adams arranged debt relief for Spain in exchange for Florida. Secretary of State William Seward acquired Alaska. What Mr. Trump proposes is consistent with this American tradition—and with our current borders. Sovereignty purchases are responsible for more than 40% of U.S. land...

"We gave the Panama Canal to Panama," Trump has pointed out"We didn't give it to China. They've abused that gift."

Daniel Jupp - Are the people who rule us alien lizards? No. Are... | Facebook
Are the people who rule us alien lizards? No.
Are secret government energy weapons to blame for every disaster? No.
  • Is there any PRACTICAL difference between the effects of Globalist Progressive ideology, corruption and mismanagement, DEI, stupid people who think they are smart, a ruling class that views ordinary people and every traditional objective reality with scorn……and alien lizards directing energy weapons to kill you?
  • Not much.
The wilder theories express a symbolic truth.
  • Our leaders MIGHT AS WELL be alien lizards directing energy weapons at us. 
  • The same malignancy is there, and disasters are just as much a consequence of their conscious actions.
They DO burn the world to ash...
They couldn’t do any more damage if the energy weapons are real.

Blaze News original: Let us never forget the left's reprehensible behavior toward fellow Americans who refused COVID jabs | Blaze Media

'We have to stop coddling the morons who will not get the shot. We start by calling them what they are. They are all snowflakes. And cowards. And idiots. And losers.' After COVID-19 vaccines became available in early 2021, not everybody in America was down with the getting the jabs. Typical vaccines take years of testing prior to approval, but since the COVID vaccines were produced with lightning speed, lots of folks were concerned and resisted getting the shots. Readers of Blaze News won't soon forget what happened next. Vaccine mandates and steadily growing pressure to get the jab turned into an all-out assault on "anti-vaxxers" by the government, businesses, the mainstream media, celebrities, politicians, and the medical community.

With police officers shouting, people crowded around the coat check desk, clamoring for their belongings. Workers hadn't been putting coats on racks in any particular order, which added to the confusion.

Congestion at Detroit Auto Show coat check line following charity preview prompts changes:
The Detroit Auto Show's Charity Preview went well Friday night. 
But there was one big hiccup: coat check.
The coat check line took hours, attendees said. 
  • As police stepped in to assist employees with coat returns, some people even lost their jackets — some made of expensive fur — and others lost their tempers.
The charity preview is an annual feature of the show that hosts high-profile stakeholders in government, nonprofits and the auto industry. 
The event, which many refer to as "auto prom," emphasizes high fashion. 
So, with the show returning to January after experimenting with shows in summer and fall, attendees dressed warmly. 
Of course, they brought coats. (and shoes!)...

Detroit Police and other law enforcement yell to a crowd growing uneasy after waiting hours for their coats to move back as they help look for coats after workers did not put any coats in an order at the 2025 Detroit Auto Show Charity Preview at Huntington Place in downtown Detroit on Friday, Jan. 10, 2025.© Ryan Garza, Detroit Free Press...

Biden Sneaks In Another Massive Spending Package 11 Days Before Trump Enters Office

President Joe Biden is plucking about a half a billion dollars’ worth of military hardware from American stockpiles to ship to Ukraine.

President-elect Donald Trump has voiced skepticism over the Biden administration’s policy toward Ukraine and has said he wants to end the conflict.

The next class-action bonanza!-----Millions of Americans—especially Gen X—are dealing with psychiatric disorders associated with leaded gasoline exhaust, new study finds

A new study published in the Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry has calculated that millions of Americans are dealing with mental disorders attributable to childhood lead exposure—through exhaust from cars fueled with leaded gasoline.
  • Researchers found that those who were born between 1966 and 1986—Generation X— were the most lead-exposed, as they were children during the peak of leaded-gasoline’s usage. 
  • They also experienced the largest increase in mental illness symptoms, according to the study...
