Blessings in disguise...

For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it. -Hebrews 12:11

Good when He gives, supremely good;
Nor less when He denies:
Afflictions, from His sovereign hand,
Are blessings in disguise.

JD Vance Reveals What He Saw From Democrats During the State of the Union Speech That Most Viewers Didn't   While many viewers saw Democrats refusing to stand or applaud the president’s list of first-year accomplishments, Vance said something else was unfolding in the chamber: Democratic members were glancing at one another, seemingly looking for cues, or permission, before reacting to the presidents words.


SOTU Poll Stunner: A 27-Point Gain in Voters Who Think We’re Moving in the Right Direction  For voters, that’s the long-term takeaway: Republicans stood for American citizens, whereas Democrats stood for illegal immigrants — and absolutely nothing else. They didn’t stand for Olympic champions, war heroes, voter ID laws, lowering the crime rate, grieving mothers, or even vulnerable children. It was a helluva contrast.
   In the long-term takeaway battle, Trump won in a landslide.

How the Left Is Brainwashing America, Featuring Buck Sexton  Today’s instantaneous communications, he argues, make mass hysterias of history like the Salem witch trials seem trivial. “Those were mass hysterias, but they weren’t able to be broadcast over radio and shared with pamphlets to millions of people at once,” Sexton notes.
   The scares and forced masking during COVID inspired him to look into this phenomenon. “COVID was a mass rape of the American mind. We were lied to. We were forced to do absurd, insane things,” he tells Schweizer and Eggers. “And I wanted to get to how do they do this to you? The two core pillars of menticide are confusion and degradation.”

Cowardice Masquerading as Virtue: Cleveland 1971 and Europe 2026 -Dreher Today in America, in the aftermath of the Great Awokening, we have a new problem. The Great Awokening, which began around 2010 and lasted until Donald Trump’s re-election in 2024, the media, universities, and all the institutions of American life taught young whites, especially white males, that they are uniquely evil. That they are what’s wrong with America. That their purpose in life is to be scapegoats for the failures of black America.

Transitioning Away from Transgenderism...The transgender cultists are still with us, but there is mounting resistance  This perverse progressive craze has been with us for about 10 years and has caused irreparable harm to many young people. Lawmakers, primarily in blue states, have been prime enablers. For example, Washington passed SB 5599 in 2023, allowing the state to legally hide runaway children from their parents if the parents don’t consent to their child’s “gender transition.” The law also applies to children from other states who may come to the state for such procedures not available to them at home, cementing Washington as a “sanctuary state” for runaway teens.

The Smear, The Silence, and The Sword...How the Church and the Media Declared War on Faithful Christians  And in this strange new age, the faithful Christian — the man or woman who simply believes what the Church has always believed — is treated not as a citizen, not even as a misguided relic, but as a threat.
   Let us dispense with the euphemisms.

This is not misunderstanding.
This is not nuance.
This is not complex social evolution.

It is a coordinated cultural assault — carried out through language, through shame, through institutional intimidation — against those who refuse to bow to the gods of the age. Image
