President Trump should absolutely give the Presidential Medal of Freedom to the Amish for their amazing work rebuilding Western North Carolina.

They have rebuilt hundreds of bridges, homes, businesses, and roads... and are STILL HERE!!!

No single group deserves it more.

The DSA (Destroying Society Altogether) wants to eliminate the President, eliminate the Senate, and eliminate the United States altogether.

They want to do more to destroy America than Al Qaeda did.

Socialists are terrorists.

The girl behind BPJ v West Virginia deserves to be honored.

She was young and terrified. So she told God that if He wanted her to speak up, He'd have to make it clear.

The next morning, the verse of the day that popped up on her phone was Esther 4:14 — “Perhaps you were created for such a time as this.”

She's been standing up ever since.
This is Adaleia, in her own words. Don't look away. ↓

[Shahriq Khan @RealShahriqKhan]

When I was Muslim, Surah 5:32 was my favorite verse to quote.

“Whoever kills a soul, it is as if he killed all of mankind.”

I put it in every debate. Every conversation about Islam and peace. It felt like the most beautiful verse in the Quran.

Then I read it slowly.

The verse doesn’t say Allah revealed this to Muhammad. It says: “We decreed upon the CHILDREN OF ISRAEL…”

Wait. Decreed where? When? I went looking.

And I found it.

Mishnah Sanhedrin 4:5. A rabbinic commentary on Cain and Abel, written down around 200 AD — four centuries before the Quran.

Rabbis discussing why Genesis says Abel’s “bloods” cry out — plural — and concluding: whoever destroys one soul, it is as if he destroyed an entire world.

Word for word. Same context. Same Cain and Abel story it’s attached to in Surah 5.

The most beautiful verse in the Quran is a rabbi’s classroom commentary.

And that’s when the question changed for me. It was never “is this verse beautiful?” It was: what is a rabbinic homily doing inside a book that claims to be the eternal, uncreated speech of God?

Because there are only two options:

Either Allah quoted the rabbis.

Or a man in Arabia heard Jewish teachers and repeated what they said.

The Bible predicted men would do this too.

Jeremiah 23:30 — “I am against the prophets who steal my words from one another.”

Once I stopped defending man’s word… I found the Living Word. Christ Jesus my King.

We’re seeing more socialist candidates in the open — but this has been the Democrats’ position the entire time.

The Green New Deal. Obamacare. Higher taxes. The second they get in power, they push socialist policies.

We can’t forget what we’re up against this November. We must win.

[The Undercurrent @NotTheirScript]

Years ago, I knew someone who claimed that a young man killed in a motorcycle accident had been her boyfriend. She told everyone she was devastated, quit her job, and made his death the defining story of her life. I believed her initially.

Later, I learned the truth.

They had never actually dated. He had pursued her briefly, but they were never a couple. In fact, before his death, she had told mutual friends that he annoyed her and that he was a loser.

There’s a term for this: grief appropriation. It’s when someone inserts themselves into another person’s tragedy, elevating themselves into a central figure in a loss when, in reality, they played only a minor role in that person’s life.

Often, there’s a secondary gain. In her case, it was attention. It gave her a reason to quit a job she didn’t want, receive sympathy, and continue being financially supported by her parents. She even tried to enter his bedroom to collect personal belongings she claimed he “would have wanted her to have.”

She genuinely believed she was entitled to them.

The story became more elaborate over time. The more she invested in it, the more convinced she became that they were soulmates and that she was one of the primary victims of his death.

Meanwhile, his real family was left to deal with the confusion and additional pain her behavior created. His parents had lost a son. His siblings had lost a brother. Instead of allowing them to grieve, she made herself another person they had to manage.

That’s one of the cruelest parts of grief appropriation. It doesn’t just rewrite the past. It competes with the people whose grief is actually rooted in reality.

I share this because I see striking similarities in Candace Owens’ attempts to position herself as the guardian of Charlie Kirk’s legacy. Charlie has a real widow. He has real children who will grow up without their father. He has parents, a sister, lifelong friends, and colleagues who are carrying an unimaginable loss.

When someone elevates themselves into the center of another person’s tragedy, they aren’t honoring that person’s memory. They’re appropriating it. And in the process, they often make an already devastating loss even harder for the people who loved that person most.

Friendly reminder

Jesus flipped tables when what was sacred was being corrupted.
Your home is sacred.
Your children are sacred.
Your peace is sacred.

**Flip tables accordingly.**

[Noahs Ark Scans @noahsarkscans]

When Jesus said, "As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man," His audience knew exactly what He meant.

They didn't think Noah was a myth.

Neither did they think the giants were.

The Jewish historian Josephus wrote that the bones of the ancient giants could still be seen in his day.

The Book of Enoch was widely read throughout the Second Temple period, and Jude even quotes it in the New Testament.

The world of Noah wasn't a forgotten legend.

It was part of the historical memory of the people Jesus preached to.

Perhaps we've become far more disconnected from the world of the Bible than the first Christians ever were.

[Taya Bass @travelingflying]

Thomas Sowell: ”Slavery was much bigger and involved infinitely more people than people have realized. It was not confined by race. It was not defined or created by race. It existed for thousands of years.

A history professor once had a student come up to him and ask, ‘When did slavery begin?’ The real question is: when did freedom begin? Cause slavery existed as long as we have any records. From archaeological findings, we know that people were enslaving other people before they could read or write. It has always existed and has existed all over the world.

The number of White people enslaved by pirates in North Africa was greater than the number of Africans brought to the United States.

And yet, that’s not even mentioned.”

We’re thrilled to announce that our scientific research at the Noah’s Ark site has officially been approved to resume!

We are deeply grateful to everyone who prayed for this outcome and to all those who encouraged and supported our work during this challenging time, including our Turkish university partners & officials, the Turkish professor leading the expedition, and friends of the project in the United States, including those at the White House who expressed their support and encouragement.

There were moments when it seemed like this work might come to an unexpected halt. But we are thankful that, through the prayers of believers around the world and the support of so many people, those obstacles did not have the final word. As Romans 8:31 reminds us, “If God is for us, who can be against us?”

We’re thankful that we can now move forward together with our Turkish university partners in this important scientific and biblical expedition.

We're so excited to continue using the most advanced scientific methods to explore what we believe to be the resting place of Noah's Ark. Our goal is to show irrefutable scientific evidence of this largely debated archeological site to the world.

Imagine the souls that could be saved.

Thank you for your continued prayers, encouragement, and support. They truly make a difference.
If you’d like to help us complete this phase of the expedition, please consider making a donation. Every gift—whether $10, $20, $50, or more—helps provide equipment, field supplies, and meals for the scientists and research team working on site.

When people think of Noah's Flood, they think of judgment.

Peter thought of grace.

In 1 Peter 3:20, he describes "God's patience" while the Ark was being built.

For decades, Noah built the Ark as a witness to the world.

Every hammer strike was another opportunity to repent.

Then, when the Ark was finished, God waited another seven days before closing the door.

Judgment wasn't rushed.

Grace came first.

The story of Noah isn't just about a God who judges sin.

It's about a God who patiently calls people to Himself before judgment ever comes.
