SENATOR JOHN KENNEDY: "It strikes me as breathtakingly ironic that that the people who are screaming so loudly about President Trump's decision to audit federal spending, are the very same people who wanted to hire 80,000 new IRS agents with guns to audit the American people."
WARREN BUFFETT: "I can end the U.S. deficit problem in 5 minutes."
"Just pass a law that any time there's a deficit of more than 3% of GDP, all members of Congress are ineligible for re-election."
Politics are important, but listen to me: Politics cannot fix what politics did not break.
And Mankind was broken long before any political system.
Only a return to Jesus Christ who can reach inside the chests of men and give them new and living hearts of love, worship, and humility can save any person, any family, and any society.
Christ is the only way out of the chaos.
being introverted is weird because
people think you’re shy, rude, or “too serious”
when really
you just don’t feel the need to turn every second of silence into noise
yes, i can be social
i just don’t enjoy performing friendliness for no reason
small talk drains me
forced energy drains me
being expected to be “on” all the time drains me
and somehow the quiet person is always the one asked to explain themselves
maybe introverts aren’t hard to understand
maybe people just get uncomfortable around someone who doesn’t perform for approval
what do people misunderstand most about introverts?
None.
The Bible teaches confessing sins directly to God through Jesus (1 John 1:9; Hebrews 4:16). No verse supports confessing to a priest instead of Him. Catholic practice draws from tradition and interpretive readings of passages like John 20:23 and James 5:16, but those do not specify "priest" or "instead of Jesus."
They skinned Matthew alive.
They crucified Peter upside down.
Boiled John in hot oil.
Beheaded James with a sword.
Hung Luke from an olive tree.
Stoned Philip to death.
None of the apostles died for a lie.
🚨Biblical Christianity looks straight-up crazy to lukewarm Christians who don’t truly know God.🚨
No, Jaden Ivey hasn’t lost his mind—he’s finally found the mind of Christ.
The world calls it ‘extreme.’ The Bible calls it normal. 🔥
When you really meet Jesus, compromise dies. Truth gets loud. And the same crowd that cheers sin suddenly says you’re the problem.
Stay bold, Jaden. The narrow road was never meant to be crowded. ✝️

“You ever think that maybe food is so expensive because, I don't know, 42 million people get it for free?”
Really think about this
Some people don’t understand why some of us hold God so dearly. They don’t grasp the dark places He pulled us out of the nights we cried ourselves to sleep, the battles we fought in silence, the moments when life felt so heavy we didn’t think we’d make it through.
When everything around us felt empty, when people walked away, when the pain was deeper than words could express, God was our only comfort.
He sat with us in the darkness, held us together when we were falling apart, and carried us through seasons that should have broken us.
So when you see us loving God the way we do, speaking about Him the way we do, and thanking Him the way we do, understand this: He didn’t just bless our lives He saved them.
I have been informed by NBC that I won’t be back with FNIA this fall and it has given me time to reflect and also to look ahead.
It’s disappointing news but I want to thank my NBC family for making the last 17 years so special. I’ll have lasting memories of my time there, especially with Rodney Harrison who has become a tremendous friend.
God has always directed me in these moments and while I’m not sure what the next step will be for me—whether it will be in football, in broadcasting, or getting more involved in church and community outreach —I know God has plans for my life and I can’t wait see them unfold. And I am reminded of one of my favorite verses in the Bible-Romans 8:28. “God works all things for His good for those who love the Lord.”
Teaching my daughter about payroll withholding
She did chores all week so I owe her $10
I hand her $7
> this isn't $10
"right, I withheld the rest"
> what does that mean
"I kept $3 of your money"
> but it's my money
"It was your money"
> what are you even doing with it?
"Funding household infrastructure"
> what
"The roof over your head. The hallway you walk through to get to the bathroom. The door locks that keep strangers out"
> you're charging me for the hallway
"I'm charging you for access to the hallway. The hallway itself was a capital expenditure"
> you're my dad. you're supposed to---
"I'm also your government"
> what if I don't want to pay for the hallway
"Then I can't guarantee the hallway"
> it's a hallway. It's already there
"For now"
She asks what else the $3 covers
"Meals, dispute resolution, nightlight maintenance"
> dispute resolution?
"When your brother takes your toys and I make him give them back. That's taxpayer funded"
> that's just parenting
"That's the Department of Justice"
> what about meals. You already feed me
"That's a social program. Not everyone qualifies"
> I'm your daughter
"Which is why you're currently enrolled"
She wants to see where the money goes
I tell her that would require a FOIA request
> what's that
"A form asking me to show you what I do with your money. Processing time is 6 to 8 weeks"
> 6 weeks to see where my $3 went?
"Could be longer. We're understaffed"
> there's two of you
She asks how she gets any of it back
"It's already spent"
> you spent my money already?
"We had a budget shortfall"
> you just took it 20 seconds ago
"And the deficit existed 30 seconds ago. The timing worked out"
> so I'm not getting it back
"I didn't say that. You might qualify for a refund"
> of my own money
"Correct. You just have to fill out a form telling me how much you made"
> you know how much I made. You paid me
"Right but I need you to tell me how much I paid you"
> so you already know the answer
"The point is compliance"
She asks what happens if she gets the number wrong
"Penalty"
> from the money I don't have because you already spent it?
"We could set up a payment plan"
> I'm 8
"Monthly installments. Very manageable"
> you're going to penalize me for getting wrong a number you already know and then make me pay you back with money you took from me
"Now you're getting it"
> I want to talk to mom
"Mom's not a qualified representative. She can't help you here"
She stormed off to her room saying how this is extortion
Slammed the door
That's my little citizen
I've never been more proud
Look who’s playing in the Vermont State Semifinal tonight! It’s the Christian school that forfeited in 2023 vs. a male player—and were then expelled from the league.
Three years and one big legal victory later, they’re back.
Best of luck, ladies! You’ve already made us proud.
For nine months, my wife Brooklyn carried our baby boy knowing he was dying. Three months in, they told us he had severe hydrocephalus. Too much fluid crushing his brain. "Off the charts bad," the specialists at Cincinnati Children's said. So extreme they stopped measuring because it didn't matter anymore.
The MRIs were sickening to look at. They said over 90% chance he'd either die right after birth or survive with such severe brain damage that any quality of life was impossible. We had meetings about breathing tubes. About when to remove life support. About letting our son "pass peacefully."
Brooklyn moved to Cincinnati, lived in a hotel near the hospital in case she went into labor. I drove back and forth, working, trying to hold our family together while planning our baby's funeral. On July 8th, fifteen minutes before her C-section, we had another meeting about the breathing tube. About when we'd need to remove it and let him go to Heaven.
Then Charlie came out crying. The sweetest sound I've ever heard.
He stayed in intensive care until yesterday. Now he's home, doing everything babies do. Normal. Beautiful. The doctors have no medical explanation. His brain somehow cleared the blockage on its own, something they've never seen in a case this severe. Nurses with decades of experience kept saying "miracle" and "divine intervention."
Thousands of people were praying for us. Friends, family, strangers, people we'd never met. I'm practical, I believe in science, but I know God was involved in this. I give Him all the credit.
During those endless nights in Cincinnati, I started woodworking in the hotel parking lot just to keep my hands busy, to stop my mind from breaking. Made small toys hoping one day Charlie might hold them. Listed a few things on the Tedooo app where I'd been selling my work, and strangers started buying pieces they didn't need, sending messages saying they were praying for our son. That community held me when I couldn't stand.
Charlie's here. He's alive. Prayer is real, and miracles still happen.

Obama never did a damn thing for black Americans. And when he retired, he moved into a rich all-white neighborhood!
A black pastor drops truth bombs: Trump delivered Opportunity Zones, criminal justice reform, and record low black unemployment - Obama gave nothing but crickets.
Even after Trump condemned that video, the hate keeps coming - pure indoctrination blocking the facts.
Wake up, folks - Trump did more for black Americans than Obama ever dreamed, and the evidence is undeniable now.
