Absolute dependence upon God...

I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. If anyone does not abide in me, he is thrown away like a branch and withers; and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire, and burned. -John 15:5-6

Workers, here is your first lesson: learn to be nothing, learn to be helpless. The man who has got something is not absolutely dependent; but the man who has got nothing is absolutely dependent. Absolute dependence upon God is the secret of all power in work. The branch has nothing but what it gets from the vine, and you and I can have nothing but what we get from Jesus.  -Andrew Murray

The Left’s  Family Problem: Marriage and Kids Cratering Among Liberal Young Adults  The Left has a family problem—actually, multiple family problems. Progressive messaging that devalues, denies, and deconstructs the value of family life and celebrates solo living in recent years is leaving its mark on the hearts, minds, and lives of young liberals. After being sold various messages that include, “Married heterosexual motherhood in America… is a game no one wins” (in The New York Times), or “Divorce led me to my happily ever after” (in The Washington Post), or “Women who Stay Single and Don’t Have Kids are Getting Richer” (in Bloomberg), or “Why Are Many Single Women Without Children So Happy?” (in Psychology Today), too many young adults, especially young women on the Left, now view marriage and family as not for them or, at least, not their top priority.

Why The ‘Seditious Six’ Should Be Prosecuted Swiftly For Urging A Military Rebellion The left is a steamroller. It will not stop unless it’s smashed. If Kelly and Slotkin and Crow, Goodlander, and the rest are allowed to get away scot-free, not only will they do it again, but they will raise the ante. One reason why leftists are so dangerous today is that there were no consequences for them over the last four years. When you burn down American cities and the Democrat VP candidate’s campaign pays your bail, you get the message quickly.

ALARMING Posts From Army JAG Officer Show Just How DANGEROUS the Seditious Six's Video Really Is  "The seditious 6 would be proud as they see their efforts produce these kinds of results within the ranks. 

   Army JAG officer MAJ Baker has been very vocal about her dissension on social media for months, and now she’s publicly stating she will not comply with lawful orders she disagrees with."

Muslim Sheriff Calls Non-Somali-Born Minnesotans ‘Foreigners,’ Claims He Serves Somalis First  Reaction to the video was intense. Many want the Somalis deported, whether they are actual American citizens or not. Police who are Somali even have their own police union called the Somali American Police Association (SAPA). This could easily be another step toward Sharia law. Screenshot

Christianity Out, Islam In: Vienna Will Be a Muslim-Majority City Within Two Generations Steger described the shift not simply as demographic, but civilizational: a rapid decline in social cohesion, cultural continuity, public safety, and national identity.

New York Is Cooked: Mamdani Brings in Anti-Police Activist to Transition Team  The NYPD was already bleeding officers before Mamdani won the election, but I'm not entirely sure how the NYPD will stay near battle-ready now. Officers will likely cut and run to other departments outside the city, or possibly even move to different states, and rightly so. It's highly unlikely that Mamdani's regime will have officers' backs, and no one wants to be the next Derek Chauvin. 

   New Yorkers better brace for impact. Or better yet, leave.

Ignoring EV Pollution for Fake Climate Crisis  

Pull back the curtain on the EV supply chain – starting with Indonesian nickel mining and extending through rare-earth mineral processing in China – and there is revealed a far less immaculate picture. The "zero tailpipe emissions" tag is a masterpiece of misdirection, diverting attention away from an environmental hellscape.

Ken Burns Is Off To A Hard-Left Start With His American Revolution Series  Moreover, nothing in the Congressional Journals of the 1st and 2nd Continental Congress gives any hint that the Iroquois Confederacy was used as a model either for Congress or the Articles of Confederation that John Dickinson drafted. Nor is there mention of the Iroquois Confederacy in Madison’s Notes on the Debates in the Federal Convention. In short, all claims that the US government was based on or borrows from the Iroquois Confederacy are groundless.
