Definitely watch this clip. The narrator is Kaity Passe, a New Jersey Director for The Conservative Caucus, a Director for Latinos For America First, and a National Advisor for AFV, among other conservative political and activist involvements. She gives the best definition of a color revolution I have heard, and she explains that it is happening here. I do want to mention some good news. Do you wonder why you haven’t seen riots this summer? Where are the large anti-ICE protests showing up? It has quieted down because Trump has broken up their money and information networks. He shut down…

This morning’s Gospel reading is Matthew 16:21–27:Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer greatly from the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed and on the third day be raised. Then Peter took Jesus aside and began to rebuke him, “God forbid, Lord! No such thing shall ever happen to you.” He turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are an obstacle to me. You are thinking not as God does, but as human beings do.”Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Whoever wishes to come after me…

Michigan leftist U.S. Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed (D), who is a Muslim, apologized Saturday for comments he made after an attack on a Jewish synagogue in West Bloomfield Township. When previously speaking of the attack, El-Sayed said in part that “hurt people hurt people,” but Saturday claimed “I made a mistake,” the Times of Israel reported Sunday. The apology came during a gathering for the state Democrat Party’s Jewish caucus at the party convention. “If my statement caused pain, I’m sorry. It was not what I intended to do.

[embedded content] Plants do not call CO2 a pollutant. They call it dinner. In this presentation from EIKE-17 in Halle an der Saale (26–27 June 2026), CERES co-founder Dr. Willie Soon makes a controversial but thought-provoking case for both CO2 and fossil fuels – “from demon to dinner.” Many scientists and policymakers treat rising CO2 as a harmful air pollutant driven almost entirely by human industrial activity. Dr. Soon takes a polemical approach, systematically examining the main arguments and suggesting that the evidence may point in the opposite direction. You may not agree with every point, but the case he…

The Ukraine-Russia Conflict: Strategic Failures and the Specter of Nuclear Catastrophe  A conflict that began in the Donbas region of eastern Ukraine has expanded into a widening confrontation between Russia and NATO-aligned states, according to a report published on FreeWestMedia.com. Russian President Vladimir Putin’s refusal to acknowledge the full scope of the war is eroding deterrence and potentially paving the way for a nuclear exchange, the report stated. The report, published August 27, 2026, asserts that the conflict has moved from the Donbas battlefield to deep within Russian territory, with long-range Western-supplied missiles and drones striking oil facilities, airports, and…

Report: U.S. Shifts from Military Strikes to Economic Warfare Against Iran The U.S. is not expected to launch new military attacks on Iran and will instead focus on economic warfare, according to a report by The Cradle.

Zinc futures on the London Metal Exchange (LME) touched a four-year high this week, according to exchange data, before a slight pullback on Thursday, Aug. 27. The industrial metal reversed course Thursday, falling 0.8% to $3,861 per ton – halting a seven-day rally, according to intraday trading figures. Analysts describe the physical supply of zinc as extremely thin, with declining mine output and operational disruptions contributing to the tightness. The metal is used primarily for galvanizing steel to prevent corrosion, making it the fourth most widely used metal behind iron, aluminum and copper, according to Amine Bouchentouf’s “Commodities For Dummies” [1].…

“UNBREAKABLE” on Bright U: The DNA perfect storm – what happens when radiation meets a compromised repair system “UNBREAKABLE” Chapter 1 introduced Mike Adams’ “binary weapon system” hypothesis: the potential convergence of lingering SARS-CoV-2 spike protein exposure and radioactive fallout from a regional nuclear conflict. Radiation can damage DNA, including creating dangerous double-strand breaks. The body relies on repair pathways such as NHEJ, which works rapidly, and homologous recombination (HR), which provides more precise repair. The proposed combined threat is that SARS-CoV-2-related proteins could interfere with DNA damage-response mechanisms while radiation simultaneously increases DNA damage. The interview highlighted reported effects…

Big Pharma’s deceptive cancer guidelines: How the American Cancer Society pushes toxic diets while suppressing the truth The ACS focuses on weight loss and exercise while ignoring the real cancer drivers: toxic food additives, GMOs, pesticides, chemtrails and mRNA spike protein damage—all part of the globalist depopulation playbook. The organization promotes pesticide-laden, GMO-contaminated “plant-based” diets while demonizing nutrient-dense animal foods (grass-fed meat, organ meats) that actually fight cancer. It blames natural red meat while ignoring the true carcinogens: processed meats with sodium nitrite, factory-farmed hormones and Bill Gates’ lab-grown/fake food agenda. It also discourages vitamins (D3, selenium), iodine and anti-cancer…

The forgotten prescription: Study identifies dietary keys to protecting the aging brain Diet directly impacts cognitive aging, with a study finding that diets rich in fiber, unsaturated fats and specific micronutrients (like vitamins A and E) are linked to sharper memory and better brain health in older adults. A significant shift in Alzheimer’s research is underway, moving from a focus on unsuccessful pharmacological cures toward lifestyle and nutritional prevention as the most promising strategy. A widespread “nutrition gap” exists, as the study revealed that older adults commonly lack these brain-protective nutrients in their diets while often consuming high amounts of…

The frailty-fighting superfood: How quercetin in apples and onions builds resilient aging The research emphasizes improving the quality of life (“health span”) and preventing frailty—characterized by exhaustion, weakness and weight loss—rather than just extending lifespan. Analyzing decades of data from the Framingham Heart Study, researchers found a strong link between higher dietary intake of plant compounds called flavonols and a reduced risk of developing frailty later in life. A specific flavonol named quercetin showed the strongest effect. For every extra 10 mg of quercetin consumed daily, the risk of frailty dropped by 35%. Quercetin fights frailty through its powerful antioxidant…

“Republicans pounced.” It is such a worn journalistic trope that it has become the object of mockery whenever some brave but foolish member of the media dares to use it yet again. But what if the subject who supposedly pounced is not even a Republican? Well, that is apparently no problem for the Philadelphia Inquirer which conveniently relabeled the person in question, in this case Robert F. Kennedy Jr., as a Republican via the use of blatant misinformation despite the reporters piously lecturing the readers about, yes, misinformation.  This mighty feat of stupendous hypocrisy was performed on Friday  by Aubrey…

The revolution apparently ends when the landlord wakes up. Portland’s self-proclaimed “president of Antifa” just ran into a force more powerful than a black-bloc mob: an angry landlord who wanted peace inside her own home. Michael James Duntley, 59, better known in Portland protest circles as “Spider Mike,” “Big Spider Mike,” or “Wider Mike,” was captured on a profanity-laced livestream arguing with a woman who identified herself as his landlord after she confronted him over screaming, yelling, and banging things around in a garage. The woman said Duntley was terrifying her. Duntley’s excuse? He and his online buddies were simply…

—– Writes Bill Madden: . The Constitution was created by prescient American leaders hundreds of years ago.  They designed it to keep our central government weak to preserve the freedom of the people.  Our country was built on the god-given rights of “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” for the people.  It was as though they had learned from history that powerful humans would one day attempt to enslave the people and assume control of our country to manage it for their benefit exclusively.  These powerful humans would, in essence, use the money and blood of the masses to…

In his book, Making Patriots, Walter Berns of the American Enterprise Institute argues that traditional American individualism, with its emphasis on natural rights to life, liberty, and property, creates a serious dilemma for the state (and hence for neocons): Not enough young people will be willing to sacrifice their lives in the state’s wars. Too concerned with leading independent lives within their own families and communities, America’s youth are not sufficiently keen on dying for “abstract ideas” that are fed to them by propagandists for the state (i.e., Straussians like Berns and his AEI colleagues).For example, Berns says “we cannot be…

In my last article, I discussed Lindsay Clancy, mental health, and the law. The primary question was one that has gripped the nation, as mental health diagnoses seem to be a convenient excuse for crime. Does a plea of insanity render one incapable of assuming responsibility for murder, or any other violent act? This is a very subjective question as the answer varies widely depending upon the circumstances, the crime in question, and the demographic. For example, nearly all mass shooters are allegedly suffering from some sort of mental illness and taking numerous psychiatric medicines. However, there has never been…
