In a statement released on the day of his abruptly canceled confirmation hearing, Dr. Dave Weldon, President Trump’s initial nominee to lead the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said concerns that Big Pharma was behind the subversion were “probably true.” “They are hands-down, the most powerful lobby organization in Washington DC giving millions of dollars to politicians on both sides of the aisle,” he wrote. [Snip] Weldon believes these two objections killed his shot at being CDC director. He has forever been tarnished as an “anti-vaxxer” despite his insistence that he just wants solid, unbiased research done on the safety of vaccines.

A major survey on the religious landscape of America was just released by Pew Research Center, and what it reveals about the decline of Christianity should alarm every American, whether or not one is Christian. ...if America loses the Christian faith from which our system of government is derived, we will lose everything that makes America what it is. All of the rights and freedoms we enjoy, the rule of law, the checks and balances on government power, all of that will disappear. [Snip] The practice of the Christian faith is deteriorating as well.

The Department of Justice was persecuting Donald Trump with sham trials just last year. But today, now-President Trump spoke at the DOJ, calling out the “communist” federal persecution of conservatives. “They tried to turn America into a corrupt communist and Third World country, but in the end, the thugs failed and the truth won. Freedom won, justice won, democracy won, and above all, the American people won,” Trump said. “There could be no more heinous betrayal of American values than to use the law to terrorize the innocent and reward the wicked.”

At the end of this week, Jews around the world will celebrate the holiday of Purim. The annual commemoration of the divine salvation from extermination has a special resonance this year. Haman, the Purim story’s central villain, the Persian Empire’s grand vizier, descended from the Amalekite peoples, has traditionally served as a stand-in for contemporary villains like Hitler, Stalin...as well as Hamas and other Islamic Jihadists. [Snip] There is much that Israel could have learned and still can learn from King David’s approach to hostage negotiations. The first thing is to eliminate moral doubt about its rightness through faith.

Who wiped out the Wagner group in Syria? Who sold offensive weapons to Ukraine first? Who warned Germany not to become dependent on the Russian Nord Stream II deal? [Snip] Fable Five: Europe is going to save Ukraine? [Snip] We are now witnessing European heads of state sending the same old virtue signaling support for the brave Zelenskyy, who supposedly spoke truth to power to the mean U.S. Orange Man. ... To multitudes of European tanks, skies full of European jets, and division after division of crack European infantry now heading east to “back up” Ukraineled on horseback by its new Joan of Arc, Ursula von der Leyen?

Long before Donald Trump berated Ukrainian president Volodymir Zelenskyy, the president has been criticized for his lack of decorum, manners, politesse, and political “norms.” [Snip] But complaints about manners and proper behavior generally reflect the mores and sensibilities of privileged elites...all policed by professional and political guilds. ...tools for silencing rival factions’ free speech rights... [Snip] We’ve seen this dynamic for over a decade... [Snip] ...in the case of Trump, ...subjectivity and hurt feelings are not as important as good policy predicated on the Constitution and its central purpose--to protect our political freedom and equality, the two major bulwarks against tyranny.

The White House dismissed concerns that the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) is instructing employees to destroy classified documents amid efforts by the Trump administration to shutter the agency. [Snip] But the documents remain available on computer systems--and the order comes as U.S. Customs and Border Protection is poised to move into the USAID building,... [Snip] Everyone involved in the process of eliminating the documents had a secret security clearance or higher, and were not among those placed on administrative leave,...those involved were familiar with the content they were handling and were specifically appointed by the agency to review and conduct the purge,...

A LifeSiteNews reporter told former Trump adviser Steve Bannon on Tuesday that Catholics are urging the Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate the U.S. Catholic Conference of Bishops (USCCB) for the mishandling of massive funds from the government for the resettlement of “refugees.” [Snip] “They’ve received hundreds of millions of dollars. Supposedly that all goes to the resettlement of illegal immigrants. But in the midst of all that, supposedly 300,000 children are just missing." [Snip] Catholic NGOs, including the USCCB, received nearly $3 billion in federal funding for immigration-related activities during the Biden years, according to recent reports.

Last week President Trump said farmers in South Africa who are facing confiscation of their lands without compensation under a new land expropriation law could be offered an expedited pathway to U.S. citizenship. [Snip] ...Prioritizing certain foreigners over others is a repudiation of the popular but fatuous notion that any person from any culture or part of the world can become an American simply by going through a neutral administrative process. ...it matters where you come from, what you believe, and how you live. [Snip] Before the 1965 immigration changes, U.S. immigration law reflected the fact that America is a particular people with a particular culture and traditions...

Many times, when we are too close to something, it can seem out of focus or undefined. But then, when distance and time are added, it immediately snaps into the sharpest of clarity and meaning. I maintain that is what is happening now about how President Donald J. Trump is transforming our government, our quality of life, our nation, and even the world. He, and he alone, is ushering in a new American revolution. One which may not be clear to us now, but months, years, and even decades from now,,, [Snip] As well as its massive historical significance.

A group of prominent Catholics, including Janet Smith and Elizabeth Yore, and clergy abuse victims have sent the following letter to Vice President JD Vance: We are impressed and grateful that you called upon the U.S. bishops to be transparent about how they have spent government funds to settle refugees and immigrants. [Snip] There are few things worse than pedophilia. ... DOGE has discovered that an obscene amount of funds has been given to the Catholic Church... [Snip] Did any of the funds end up in the hands of cartels ... What did they do to protect vulnerable children and women?

Led by their stylish first lady, the trendsetting women of America are doing what Volodymyr Zelensky can’t: wearing neckties. Melania Trump showed up to Capitol Hill this week wearing a tailored three-piece camel suit with a slim black tie. Lately, the neckwear has also shown up on runways, red carpets, and even on the queen of Spain. The necktie is “2025’s Most Talked-About Accessory Trend” for women, according to WhoWhatWear, and L’Officiel calls it “2025’s Must-Have Accessory.” It’s typically accompanied by broad-shouldered suits, like the hourglass-shaped tuxedo Melania wore for her official White House portrait (sans tie, though with a white collared shirt).
Comments:
The author points to political pressure from the Biden administration, EU, UN, other global forces and “domestic pressure campaigns insisting that hostage releases take priority over the destruction of Hamas” resulting in what began “as a Davidic war of principle and courage gave way to a Saulite political slog...putting Israel back in the same familiar no-win scenario of fighting Islamic terrorism” that “Hamas and its backers in the Muslim Brotherhood, Qatar and others around the world had been counting on.” The narrative recalls young David’s decisive confrontation with Goliath as coming “in the name of the Lord of hosts. ... That moral certainty is sadly lacking today.”
