Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me...
Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart. -Jeremiah 29:12-13
Faith is to the soul what life is to the body. Prayer is to faith what breath is to the body. How a person can live and not breathe is past my comprehension, and how a person can believe and not pray is past my comprehension too. -J.C. Ryle

Inside New York’s medical fraud capital where often empty senior centers bill Medicaid $100M-a-year for patients The vibrant, east Asian immigrant enclave of Flushing may be New York’s medical fraud capital.
A one-mile radius of the neighborhood boasts 77 Social Adult Daycares (SADCs), which bill Medicaid over $100 million a year, accounting for 14 percent of all daycare spending in the state, a Post investigation reveals.
When The Post visited some of largest — which are private businesses that have claimed between $20 and 40 million from Medicaid over the last six years — many storefronts were shuttered, and those that were open had empty rooms with no patients.
Scamdani and the Truth About City-Owned Grocery Stores Scamdani’s city-owned stores are nothing but a subsidized loss-leader program. Taxpayers will actually be paying for the same groceries twice. And better prices and more convenience are available at your fingertips using an app. This is socialism in action.
Instead, Mamdani’s government published a searchable online database identifying properties that could be subject to the tax. This database included names and addresses across all five boroughs – effectively a hit list of the supposedly “wealthy” New Yorkers whom the socialist Mamdani has long lambasted as enemies of the public.
The move was widely criticized as an unnecessary and potentially dangerous invasion of privacy – especially after questions emerged about the accuracy of the list itself.
Can Homeowners Save New York State from Socialism? In November, the suburbs of New York City will be the pivotal arena for whether the Democratic Socialists of America cement their takeover of the entire state from their New York City stronghold.

FBI Warns of Cyberattacks on Municipal Water Systems Across Seven States NBC News reports that the FBI and the EPA released a joint public service announcement warning water and wastewater utilities nationwide that malicious cyber actors are attempting to disrupt critical water infrastructure. Water utilities in multiple states have reported cybersecurity incidents, the agencies said, and some attacks have degraded water operations. The warning follows a breach in Minnesota, where hackers targeted more than 30 municipal water facilities in an attack.

Anti-Zionism has become the suffocating religion of the cultural establishment. Every social ill – from war to broken borders to the rise of the far right – is giddily traced back to Israel. Not only does this hang yet more target signs around the necks of Jews, it also obscures the truth about Europe’s social problems. It is our own governments’ suicidal abandonment of the ideal of national sovereignty that has caused the migrant crisis, not the hand-rubbing plotting of the Jews of the Holy Land. Like their forebears in the pitchfork Middle Ages, anti-Zionists prefer to live in a house of lies than to confront the truth of their world, and themselves.

It is the paradox of our age that anyone can flee Somalia, the West Bank, Puerto Rico, or Uganda and then win the global lottery by being accepted into America’s constitutional society and free-market economy—only to do their best to repay the generosity of their host by turning their new country into something unrecognizable to the prior 10 generations of Americans.
But then again, America might become quite similar to the mess they abandoned.
So far, the model holds true: socialist candidates (as opposed to registered socialist activists) hide their communist-adjacent agendas during elections. But once in office and drunk with power, they find socialism too wishy-washy and go full communist. So they destroy borders, institutions, names, dates, statues, norms, customs, and traditions to replicate the illiberalism and concomitant failures of a new Haiti, a West Bank, or a Morocco in the West.
In sum, to make a new socialist America, you must first destroy everything that made Americans and all that they hold dear.

His mental condition was in question during his entire presidency. For example, his performance in the 2024 debate against Trump was so poor that Democrats pressured him to withdraw as a candidate for reelection.
As President, Biden was never given a cognitive test, so there were no results to reveal to the American people, in contrast to Trump, who has released cognitive test results on multiple occasions.
In fact, Biden’s mental health was deteriorating years before he entered the White House as President. Last week, the 2016 and 2017 recordings with his ghostwriter Mark Zwonitzer were finally released to the public. It was the subject of longstanding litigation as Biden tried to prevent the tapes from being made public.

There is much that can be done to improve children’s education in the U.S., beyond curbing the malign influence of teachers’ unions and quashing destructive fads such as “restorative justice.” Most importantly, people with children need to be married, take advantage of school choice programs, or, if possible, homeschool their children. Their children’s future—and ultimately the country’s—depends on it.

The score so far: over a million dead in America from the Covid-19 virus that Dr. Fauci helped develop starting as far back as the 1990s, with Dr. Ralph Baric of the University of North Carolina. Tens of thousands left with serious, lasting injuries from the vaccines they promoted. The exact number of vaccine-connected deaths unknown because the public health agencies refused to report honestly on an operation that they caused to happen. There are whole legions of high officials and doctors behind Dr. Fauci now desperate to cover their asses.
Fauci’s follies — time to toss the ‘science is settled’ groupthink Systems in which the powerful can steer money to their friends and away from critics tend to do bad science, or no science at all.
Science is never really “settled,” in other words — and the insistence that it can be was one of the most damaging messages of the COVID years.
We need to fix NIAID, NIH and other science agencies to make open communication and diversity of ideas easier, and to make it harder for those at the top to build empires and stifle critics.
No more Faucis, ever again
Aaron Rodgers Goes Live on ESPN and Takes No Prisoners. Anthony Fauci Hardest Hit. Appearing live on ESPN’s The Pat McAfee Show, Rodgers tore into Anthony Fauci over his most recent testimony before the Senate and just about everything else Fauci has done over the past six years. Rodgers took no prisoners, which made everyone on the ESPN training camp set visibly uncomfortable. As a reminder, Disney owns ESPN and ABC.
