We made it, everyone. The greatest week in golf is finally upon us, and in just a few short days, the 90th edition of the Masters will get underway from Augusta National. It’s the one event in sports that never loses its mystique, intrigue, or charm, and it’s the golf tournament we hold most sacred. Yet, when we’re asked the simple question of why that is the case, there isn’t a de facto answer, which, oddly, may be exactly why so many cherish the Masters as much as they do.Scottie Scheffler understands the Masters and Augusta National quite well with…

Congo President Felix Tshisekedi and President Trump (Credit: White House) The Trump administration has secured a new agreement with the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) to take in deported illegal aliens.

Democratic California Rep. Ro Khanna told “Meet the Press” host Kristen Welker Sunday he would make another appearance with a left-wing streamer who used a shock collar on a dog. Controversial Twitch streamer Hasan Piker has become an influential figure on the left, with a growing role in midterm politics and potential sway over the 2028 presidential race, according to Politico. While many Democrats have embraced his reach, others have raised concerns about his antisemitic comments and the risk his rhetoric poses to the party. When Welker raised those concerns Sunday, however, Khanna defended Piker. (RELATED: Ro Khanna Vows Democrats…
“We lost the keys [to the Strait of Hormuz]”, is certainly one response the crumbling military junta running Iran could give to Donald Trump’s final warning to surrender, but not one that’s going to keep the lights on, literally and figuratively. It took Pharaoh putting Egypt through ten different plagues before relenting after God boomeranged his command to kill the firstborn Hebrew child. God turned that into a death sentence for any household without blood over the doorway. That was the first Passover over 3,300 years ago. As Jews all over the globe celebrate Passover this year, you would think that…
Savannah Guthrie returned to NBC’s “Today” on Monday wearing yellow — the color of optimism. That has been the same emotion she has exhibited since her mother, Nancy Guthrie, went missing Feb. 1.

We are so glad you started your week with us, and it is good to be home,” Guthrie said. “Here we go, ready or not, let’s do the news,” she added, as co-anchor Craig Melvin was by her side in more ways than one. “So…
Tell us what you really think. On Saturday’s The Weekend: Primetime, MS NOW’s resident “Republican,” Elise Jordan, went on a blistering rant against President Trump—denouncing him as “trashy,” “classless,” and “unhinged” in a tirade that outpaced even her liberal co-hosts. Reacting to Trump’s Easter post about Iran—featuring an F-bomb profanity, a “praise be to Allah” phrase, and a threat to send Iranians to “hell”—Jordan said she wasn’t supposed to surprised by “the lack of decorum and the trashiness and just the utter classlessness of Donald Trump.” But she quickly escalated. I cannot believe that this characterless man is the President…

In recent months, ISIS and ISIS-inspired groups have carried out attacks in Africa, the United States, Australia, Europe, and the Middle East, and now ISIS has called on Muslims around the world to launch more. In its April 3, 2026 edition of al-Naba, its Arabic-language weekly newsletter, ISIS called on Muslims worldwide to set fire to churches and synagogues across the United States, Europe, Russia, and India, naming specific targets in Tunisia, Morocco, the UAE, and Syria. The group cited Israel’s closure of the al-Aqsa Mosque compound on the Temple Mount as justification, a site Israeli authorities closed to Muslim…

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth is a committed Christian, and his convictions have led him to renew the U.S. military’s orientation toward God. As part of that effort, Hegseth has hosted several optional Christian services in the Pentagon, providing senior defense officials the chance to be exhorted and encouraged by various pastors. But one secular advocacy group is displeased by the services, claiming they violate the First Amendment. Americans United for Separation of Church and State filed two lawsuits pertaining to the services at the War Department, as well as the Labor Department. Lawsuit filed over Hegseth’s Christian nationalism. He’s…

A Weekend of Lies: The Truth Behind Trump’s ‘Pilot Rescue’ and the Catastrophic Uranium Grab That Failed Introduction: The Predictable Cycle of Lies and Market Manipulation I’ve been watching the geopolitical theater for a long time, and what we witnessed this past weekend was another obvious attempt at deception and manipulation. While the public was fed a thrilling tale of a heroic pilot rescue, I saw the gears of a well-oiled propaganda machine churning out another series of lies. In my view, this is part of a recurring, absurd pattern: weekend war-mongering designed to manipulate markets, followed by weekday lies…
Gullibility Is Stupidity: My Plea to Think for Yourself in an Age of Official Deception Believing Official Sources is Dumb I want to speak to you plainly about a sickness that has infected our collective mind. It’s not a virus in the traditional sense, but a cognitive surrender — a willful abandonment of our most sacred human faculty: critical thought. We are living in an age of official deception, where governments, corporations, and captured media present a unified narrative designed for compliance, not truth. I’ve spent years observing this descent into what I can only describe as a mass cognitive…
The book “The Psychological War on Our Children: Exposing the Assault on Innocence” warns that children are targeted by a coordinated ideological campaign rooted in cultural Marxism, aiming to dismantle traditional values, deny biological reality and indoctrinate them into harmful ideologies. The Frankfurt School and Gramsci’s “long march through the institutions” laid the groundwork, with the Rockefeller and Ford Foundations funding progressive education reforms that prioritized social engineering over academic rigor. Schools now teach gender ideology, hide students’ gender transitions from parents and push irreversible medical treatments on minors, while media and Big Tech amplify LGBTQ+ narratives and undermine family…

China accelerates military expansion in South China Sea with new high-tech radar and island-building campaign Satellite imagery confirms China is constructing a high-tech HF radar system on Cuarteron Reef in the Spratly Islands, escalating tensions in the contested South China Sea and reinforcing Beijing’s military dominance. After years of inactivity, China has resumed large-scale island-building, with Antelope Reef potentially becoming its largest military stronghold—featuring jetties, helipads and possible missile facilities—bolstering surveillance and offensive capabilities near Taiwan. Despite Vietnam’s protests over illegal construction in the Paracel Islands, China dismisses objections, asserting sovereignty while expanding infrastructure that could support submarines and aircraft…

Introduction A 12-year observational study has found that older adults who received treatment for gum disease had a significantly lower incidence of dementia compared to those who did not. The research, published in the journal Neuroepidemiology by a team from New York University, followed 866 older adults with periodontal symptoms. [1] According to the study, participants who underwent professional periodontal treatment experienced a 38% lower rate of developing dementia over the study period. [1] This finding points to oral health as a modifiable risk factor for cognitive decline, a connection often overlooked in standard medical assessments for dementia risk. The study’s authors have called…
Thiamine (B1) supports digestion by maintaining gut muscle tone and nerve signaling, essential for peristalsis and preventing constipation, bloating and appetite loss. Genetic factors influence B1 utilization, with some individuals benefiting more from increased thiamine intake for improved gut motility and bowel regularity. B1 aids metabolic function, converting carbs into glucose, which fuels digestive cells and promotes efficient waste movement without acting as a laxative. Best dietary sources include pork, trout, whole grains and legumes; those with issues like alcohol use, digestive disorders and poor diets may need supplementation. Chronic constipation sufferers should consider thiamine adequacy alongside fiber and hydration, as…

What I find interesting, within the inside baseball aspect of this political endorsement, is that Steve Hilton never even discussed getting a President Trump endorsement with him. If the remarks Hilton made to Politico are correct, there was never a discussion of the race with President Trump.
