Louis was a 17 year old boy with his whole life in front of him… on Friday night he was beaten into a coma by a group of immigrants in France.

He died today.

You will not see this on the mainstream media and you all know why.

Deport the invaders!

🚨 President Trump is CALLING OUT the LA Mayoral election being STOLEN from Spencer Pratt

"You ever see an election that takes WEEKS to count the votes?!"

"After the evening, it looked like [Pratt] was going to win or certainly be in the runoff. And then I started hearing rumors as the days went by, days and days went by, that Pratt is fading. He's fading.

I said, 'they RIGGED the election!' And then, lo and behold, he didn't qualify."

"In California, they can put you in JAIL if you say, 'sir, do you have proof of citizenship?'"

"If you ask that question to a voter, you are CRIMINALLY liable!"

"The election's totally rigged. California is totally rigged. All mail in ballots. It's a disgrace."

WE NEED THE SAVE AMERICA ACT!

@TheLizVariant @gaye_gallops Needed this post at exactly this moment. Thank you

[TheLizVariant @TheLizVariant]

You can either worry about it or pray about it.

One steals your peace.
The other brings you to the Prince of Peace.

Worry has never changed a single outcome, but prayer has moved mountains.

Before you spend another night pacing the floor over something you cannot control, take it to the One who can.

“Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.”

Stop carrying what God is willing to carry for you. 🙏❤️

Holy shit…

The White House official account is legit “Q posting”.

This is not an actual Q drop, but it’s a meme constructed to look like a Q drop.

People can claim this is trolling, but this is soft disclosure.

What is the main thesis of the Q drops? The entire thing revolves around Uranium One, Obama’s Iran deal, and the rogue nuclear material that ended up in North Korea, Syria, and Iran.

Sounds kind of pertinent to the current conversation, doesn’t it?

Not an accident. It’s time.

Wrap your head around this... The Democrats are mad ICE is using Medicaid data to arrest illegals after they told us illegals aren't on Medicaid.

A tragic multi-vehicle crash hit the 210 Freeway in Irwindale this weekend. A jackknifed semi crossed the divider, killing a 58-year-old woman and injuring 32 others, including children.

The driver has been identified as 21-year-old Jashanpreet Singh from Yuba City. He was arrested on suspicion of DUI.

Prayers for the victims and their families. We need stronger trucking safety standards and enforcement on California roads. What do you think?

🚨 JUST IN: After the SAVE America Act hits 50 votes, Scott Presler is demanding the GOP force a real, old-school, hours-long talking filibuster on the Senate floor.

No hiding. No procedural games. Stand there and explain it to the country.

He called out Cory Booker directly. Tell 76 percent of black Americans why you oppose voter ID. Tell 82 percent of Latino Americans. Tell 83 percent of Americans overall why you are against photo ID.

Make them say it on camera. Make them own it.

Presler’s point is simple. If you believe in your position, defend it in public. Don’t bury it in Senate procedure.

Bring it to debate. Let the country watch.

Preach! 🔥

Texas is the last big piece of the America we all grew up dreaming about … bold, free, unapologetic, and built on “don’t tread on me” energy.

That Brit nailed it.👇🏻

@benwehrman Yes but wasn’t that Golden Girls back tattoo worth it ?

[Its₳llaPlay 🎭 @RuLooking4This2]

@benwehrman Believe it or not 90% of women didn't have tattoos until
a television show started showing this woman and
others.

See how television programming works.

[₿en Wehrman @benwehrman]

The moment tattoo ink enters your skin, your immune system treats it like an invader and sends specialized cells called macrophages to remove it.

These cells swallow the pigment, but the particles are too large to break down. Instead of disappearing, the ink becomes trapped inside the very cells trying to eliminate it.

The battle never ends. As those immune cells die, they release the ink back into the skin, where new macrophages quickly capture it again. This cycle repeats for years, sometimes decades.

Your tattoo remains visible not because your body gave up and accepted the invasive chemicals, but because it keeps fighting a battle it cannot win.

This is Paul Powlesland. He is facing prosecution by the Environment Agency for pulling rubbish out of a local river without a licence.

The 40-year-old barrister and a group of volunteers took matters into their own hands to clear a section of the River Roding in Barking, East London.

The group hired a digger for £1,000 and filled over 200 bags of rubbish, but after the clean-up, Paul received a letter from the Environment Agency notifying him he was under investigation for operating without a licence.

The offence carries a maximum punishment of two years in prison, and he could also lose his job.

A British physiologist named Brett Gooden published a paper in 1994 that quietly proved every human walking around on this planet has an emergency reset button hidden in the skin of their face, and almost nobody knows how to use it.

His name is mostly forgotten outside diving medicine. The paper is called "Mechanism of the Human Diving Response," and the body of research it kicked off has been replicated by neuroscientists, cardiologists, and physiologists in labs across the world for the last thirty years.

The mechanism it described is the single fastest way to lower a human heart rate that has ever been documented.

The discovery actually began long before Gooden formalized it. Physiologists had noticed for decades that seals, whales, dolphins, and otters could slow their heart rates dramatically the moment their faces touched water, allowing them to dive for long periods without running out of oxygen.

The question Gooden helped answer was whether the same reflex existed in humans, and what exactly triggered it.

The answer turned out to be a network of nerves almost nobody outside neurology had paid attention to.

The trigeminal nerve is one of the largest nerves in your head, and it covers the entire surface of your face, especially the area around your eyes, nose, forehead, and mouth. When cold water touches that skin, the trigeminal nerve fires a signal straight into the brainstem, which then routes a command through the vagus nerve directly to the heart.

The vagus nerve is the master switch of your parasympathetic nervous system, which is the part of the body responsible for calm, recovery, and the slowing of the heart.

The entire signal chain takes about a second to complete. Cold water hits the face. Trigeminal nerve fires. Vagus nerve responds. The heart slows.

Human heart rate has been documented to drop anywhere from 5 to over 50 percent during this response, depending on the temperature of the water, how much of the face is covered, and how strongly the person is holding their breath.

In infants the response is so powerful that it has been implicated in cases of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, because the same reflex that protects a baby underwater can be triggered accidentally by bedding pressed against the face during sleep.

The reflex is called the mammalian dive reflex, and the broader nerve circuit it sits inside is called the trigeminocardiac reflex.

Researchers who study it now consider it the single most powerful autonomic reflex in the human body, which means it is faster and stronger than almost any other automatic response your nervous system is capable of producing.

The detail Gooden zeroed in on is the part that should matter most to anyone who has ever had a panic attack, a racing heart at 3am, or a moment of overwhelming anxiety they could not breathe their way out of.

Two ingredients trigger the response. The water has to be cold, ideally under about 15 degrees Celsius, and it has to touch the area around the forehead, eyes, and nose. The skin of the cheeks and chin alone is not enough.

The receptors that fire the reflex are concentrated in the upper face, which is exactly the part of a seal that hits the water first when it dives. Evolution kept that wiring intact in humans even though we stopped diving for our food a long time ago.

This is why splashing cold water on your face during a moment of panic actually works. It is not psychological. It is not a placebo. You are activating a neurological circuit that has been sitting in your body since before your species walked upright, and the circuit does exactly what it was built to do.

A psychiatrist at Harvard named Marsha Linehan eventually wrote this exact protocol into a dialectical behavior therapy technique she called the cold water dive, which she taught to patients in acute emotional crisis. The instruction was simple.

Fill a bowl with cold water and ice. Hold your breath. Submerge your face from the forehead down to the chin for thirty seconds. Within the first ten seconds, the heart begins to slow. By the time the face comes out of the water, the body has shifted out of fight-or-flight and into the parasympathetic state that makes thinking clearly possible again.

Emergency room physicians have used the same trick to reset abnormal heart rhythms in patients with certain types of tachycardia for decades. They call it the diving reflex maneuver.

A bag of ice water held against the face for fifteen to thirty seconds can convert a runaway heart rhythm back to normal without a single drug being administered.

Same nerve. Same reflex. Same biology your ancestors used to hunt for fish underwater two hundred thousand years ago.

The strangest part of all of this is how few people know it exists. The cold plunge industry has built itself into a billion-dollar movement based on full-body cold exposure, ice baths, and dramatic protocols that require expensive equipment and serious commitment.

But the fastest, most underrated nervous system reset available to a human being requires a sink, a few seconds, and the upper half of your face.

Your nervous system has an emergency brake. You were born holding the handle.

[Old School Eddie @Old_SchoolEddie]

A young Christian girl in school faced real hardship.

She sat crying in the gym, not because she caused trouble, but because school leaders forced her to stay at an assembly that went against her faith.

She politely asked to leave when the talk made her uncomfortable, but they told her, "You have no choice."

This was not the first time.

In second grade, they searched her backpack every day for Bibles and Gospel tracts.

Later, they scolded her just for speaking about Jesus to friends.

Now this is the third time the American Center for Law and Justice has stepped in to protect her.

Friends, the Bible teaches us to stand firm in our faith.

Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me" (Matthew 19:14).

Parents have the God-given duty to raise their children in the ways of the Lord. Schools should not force a child to choose between learning and obeying God.

It grieves my heart to see this happen in our country.

We must pray for this brave girl and her family.

Pray that the school leaders turn from this path and respect the rights of believers.

Pray for wisdom and courage for all who stand for truth.

No child should have to hide their faith or suffer for it in school.

Let us remember the words of Scripture: "Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid" (Joshua 1:9).

Stand with families who seek to follow Christ.

May God protect the innocent and bring justice where it is needed.

[Dana Rachel 🇻🇦 @thyflameoflove]

There is one person in the entire Bible who Jesus personally guaranteed would be in Paradise. It wasn't a priest. It wasn't an apostle. It was a criminal who had seconds left to live.

Christian tradition calls him St. Dismas, the Good Thief.

As Jesus hung on the Cross, two criminals were crucified beside Him. One mocked Him:
→ “If you are the Christ, save yourself and us!” (Luke 23:39)

But the other thief saw something different.

He knew he was guilty. He knew he deserved his punishment. Yet he also knew that Jesus was innocent.

Then he spoke:
→ “Do you not fear God? We are receiving the due reward of our deeds, but this man has done nothing wrong.” (Luke 23:40–41)

Think about that for a moment.

While many people around the Cross rejected Jesus, a dying criminal recognized Him as King.

He then turned to Jesus and said:
→ “Jesus, remember me when You come into Your kingdom.” (Luke 23:42)

He had no time left to change his life. No chance to repay what he had done. No opportunity to build a good reputation or perform great acts of holiness.

He had only repentance, faith, and trust in Christ.

And Jesus answered him:
→ “Amen, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise.” (Luke 23:43)

Those words came directly from Jesus.

The Church has long honored this repentant thief as St. Dismas. His story does not mean our choices do not matter or that we should wait until the end of life to repent. None of us knows when our final hour will come.

But it does show something many people struggle to believe.

No sinner is beyond God's mercy.

No one is too far gone.

As long as a person is still alive, the door to repentance remains open.

One simple prayer changed his eternity:
→ “Jesus, remember me.”

St. Dismas reminds us not to give up on ourselves and not to stop praying for the people we think will never return to God.
