The story in the Bible that rattled me before I converted to Christianity from Islam: The two thieves crucified next to Jesus. I never knew about them. Bro. They’re the whole Gospel in one scene. Two men. Same sin. Same cross. Same dying breath. Same distance from Jesus — mere feet away on either side. One mocks Him. One turns to Him and says, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.” And Jesus tells the second man: “Today you will be with Me in paradise.” Luke 23:43. That man did ZERO good works. He couldn’t. His hands were nailed down. He never prayed five times. Never fasted. Never gave to the poor. Never got baptized. He had nothing to offer but a dying glance toward Jesus. And Jesus saved him... on the spot. In Islam, that man was doomed. No time to balance the scale. No deeds to weigh. Game over. A horrible life with a horrible punishment ahead. I wonder if that would be me… Yet in the Gospel, that man was in paradise the same day — because salvation was never about his works. It was about WHO he turned to in his last moment. Two criminals. Same cross. One simple difference: which one turned to Jesus. That’s why the Gospel is offensive. And Jesus asks everyone: who do you say I am?

When I was Muslim, I would argue & say we had the same prophets as Christians. But this one broke me: Surah 17:101: Allah gave Moses 9 clear signs. I knew the list. The staff. The shining hand. The drought. The flood. The locusts. The lice. The frogs. The blood. I held onto those 9 signs like proof I had the real story. But bro, you know what shook me? There’s a night missing. After all nine signs, right before Israel walks out of Egypt, something happens that the Quran goes completely silent on. A lamb is slaughtered. Its blood painted on the doorposts. And death passes over every house covered by that blood. The Passover. I grew up hearing the whole Exodus story. But nobody ever told me about the blood on the door. Islam just skips it. And here’s what wrecked me. The Bible, the book I was taught was corrupted, mentions the Passover over 70 times. Exodus. Leviticus. Numbers. Deuteronomy. The Psalms. The Prophets. The Gospels. Paul. 70 times. So I had to ask myself the honest question: If men corrupted this book, why would they obsess over the same story for 1500 years? Across dozens of authors who never met? You don’t forge a document 70 times. That’s just not corruption. That to me is preservation. And then I read the line that finished me off. 1 Corinthians 5:7. “Christ our Passover lamb has been sacrificed.” That’s when it hit me. The whole story was never just about Moses. It was always pointing to a King. The final lamb. Whose blood, when applied to your life, makes death pass over you. Forever. The Quran gave me 9 signs but hid the one night that explains why any of them happened. Because the moment a Muslim understands the Passover… he’s one step away from the cross.

When I was Muslim, I used to ask Christians: “If Jesus was really God, why did He eat, sleep, and bleed like us?” And honestly, I used to ask it with pride like it was some unbeatable argument. But later I realized something: That question was not exposing Christianity. It was exposing my misunderstanding of what kind of God Jesus claimed to be. Because the real question is not: “Why would God become weak?” The real question is: “What kind of God would willingly step into human suffering at all?” Islam taught me about a God who was distant and untouchable. But Christianity introduced me to a God who stepped into hunger, exhaustion, grief, pain, betrayal, blood, and suffering with us. And suddenly His humanity stopped feeling like weakness to me. It became proof of love. If Jesus ate, it means He came close enough to experience hunger beside us. If He slept, it means He embraced the exhaustion we carry. If He bled, it means He did not stand above suffering watching us from a distance. He entered it Himself. Philippians 2 says Christ emptied Himself and took on flesh. Not because He stopped being God, but because He wanted humanity to finally see what God is actually like. And it turns out God is willing to suffer for the people He loves. That changed everything for me. Because every other religion demanded sacrifice from humanity. Jesus became the sacrifice Himself. And no prophet in history ever claimed that.

Please do a quick read of this. It’s short, well written, and will remove a bit of wool from over your eyes.

Regardless of the outcome of Spencer Pratt’s race, what he’s doing is authentically American. See a problem, become a part of the solution. His campaign ads are unconventional, but that’s the point; it’s refreshing. Instead of speaking like a career politician, he’s speaking as an American who sees and deeply understands how fragile the simple things in life are when leadership fails. This is what this country is all about. Citizens willing to step into the political arena, unafraid, and challenge a failing system, much like the one that has destroyed Los Angeles. I hope moments like this inspire more Americans to throw their names into the mix, run for office, get involved and stand up for what makes this country exceptional.

🚨 WOW! Rep. Wesley Hunt just made the Democrats SPEECHLESS after dropping straight truth nukes "My own father, who grew up in a segregated South, had to walk around to the back of a restaurant just to order a sandwich because of the color of his skin." "THAT was Jim Crow, and THAT is precisely why it is so offensive to compare that era of legalized discrimination and racial terror to showing a PHOTO ID in a voting booth!" "And it's just as offensive when groups and organizations like these manufacture faux hate and racial tension, requiring identification of vote." "It's not oppression. It is not segregation. It is not racism." "It is a basic standard that applies equally to every single American citizen, regardless of what you look like. You need an ID to board a plane. You need an ID to cash a check." "You need an ID to buy alcohol. You need an ID to enter these very federal buildings. And by the way, attaining an ID in this country is an extremely low bar." "But somehow showing an ID to vote in America is now considered to be Jim Crow 2.0. This is NOT about civil rights. This is about political theater. And the Democrat Party survives on manufacturing grievance." 🫳🏻🎤

All I ever hear the media talk about is right wing violence. All I ever see are left wing shooters.

Pretty good answer

𝗛𝗘𝗥𝗘'𝗦 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗜 𝗗𝗢𝗡'𝗧 𝗟𝗜𝗞𝗘 𝗔𝗕𝗢𝗨𝗧 𝗧𝗥𝗨𝗠𝗣 — 𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗪𝗛𝗬 𝗜 𝗩𝗢𝗧𝗘𝗗 𝗙𝗢𝗥 𝗛𝗜𝗠 𝗧𝗛𝗥𝗘𝗘 𝗧𝗜𝗠𝗘𝗦 𝗔𝗡𝗬𝗪𝗔𝗬 Some of you genuinely think Trump supporters believe this man is perfect. That he can do no wrong. That we're in some kind of cult. We don't. He can. We aren't. Some of us are just mature enough to say: 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗮 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁'𝘀 𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆. So here it is. My honest list. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜 𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲: The social media. The all-caps, impulsive posting, unnecessary jabs. Sometimes the best move is to shut up. Not every fire needs fuel. He could calm situations instantly if he stopped feeding the outrage machine. The cockiness. 𝗡𝗼 𝗼𝗻𝗲'𝘀 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗱𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗶𝘁 𝗯𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲. 𝑶𝒏𝒍𝒚 𝑰 𝒄𝒂𝒏 𝒅𝒐 𝒊𝒕. It gets old. Tell me what's being done. Tell me what's coming. Skip the self-praise. The personal attacks that go on too long. Call out what needs to be called out — then move on. 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗜 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗵𝗶𝗺: He's real. Not rehearsed. Most politicians are polished and presidential — and it sounds nice — but it's usually fake. Trump is raw, blunt, and imperfect. But 𝗜 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲 𝗵𝗶𝗺 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗸𝘀. He doesn't read from a script written by donors and PR teams. In a world full of performance politicians, that honesty is refreshing. He answers questions and doesn't hide. He doesn't dodge the press. He doesn't disappear for days. He doesn't need a teleprompter to breathe. Even when reporters frame questions to trap him — he still answers. 𝗛𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗵𝗲'𝘀 𝗴𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗼. This is why millions still support him. Most candidates campaign on big promises, then magically can't deliver once in office. Trump follows through more consistently than any president I've seen in my lifetime. He puts America first. You can hate his style — but the results speak. He fights for our borders, our economy, our energy, our sovereignty, our safety. He doesn't bend to global pressure. He doesn't apologize for America. I don't support Trump because I think he's perfect. I support him because I agree with his mission: 𝗔𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗮 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗶𝘁𝘀 𝗰𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗻𝘀, 𝗲𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝘁𝘀 𝗹𝗮𝘄𝘀, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗽 𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝘂𝗻 𝗯𝘆 𝘄𝗲𝗮𝗸, 𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗿𝘂𝗽𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗿 𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗽𝘂𝘁 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗲𝗹𝘀𝗲 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁. Stop pretending the only reason people support Trump is because they're brainwashed. Some of us simply looked at the outcomes — and chose the leader who fights for our country. Faith. Family. Freedom. 𝗟𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗵𝗶𝗺 𝗼𝗿 𝗵𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗵𝗶𝗺 — 𝗵𝗲 𝗴𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗷𝗼𝗯 𝗱𝗼𝗻𝗲.

Jelly Roll just scored…Best Contemporary Country Album at Grammys Instead of thanking “the industry,” he thanked God. He said this season of his life is “all Jesus” and that when he looks at his nominations, “all I see is God.” Cue the left absolutely losing their minds.

This woman woke up at 4 AM in 20° cold, worked out for two hours, faced a packed college Monday… and her first thought? “I woke up this morning. I’m healthy. I get to move my body. I get to learn. And above all—Jesus loves me. Not because of anything I’ve done. Just because I’m His.” No complaints. Just tears of gratitude. A beautiful reminder: The greatest privilege isn’t the workout, the degree, or the sunrise—it’s waking up known and loved by our Creator. If you’re breathing today, you’re already blessed beyond measure. Don’t let the noise steal your thankfulness. He loves you more than you’ll ever grasp.

Sen. Fetterman says the Biden administration failed on border security, urges unity around deporting criminal illegal immigrants “President Biden did a terrible job, and our border was effectively open at that point. President Biden and Mayorkas did not secure our border, and I tried to warn my party back in 2023 that this would cost us in the election. America deserves a secure border, and I don’t know why every American can’t agree with that. Another thing that’s the truth—we should all agree to deport all the criminals who are here in our nation right now. I do have to give credit to our president for securing our border and arresting all of the criminals. For the tragedy that happened, we’ve lost two American citizens, and I don’t think any American citizens want that.”

If there’s one learning lesson you need to take away in 2026 it’s that the truth doesn’t matter anymore and reality isn’t real. People will invent narratives and facts to suit desired objectives and if enough people agree, that’s the new reality. People who point out that the emperor has no clothes will be crushed. Katherine Maher of Wikimedia said it best herself. “Our reverence for the truth is a hindrance to getting things done.” (Paraphrasing) We’re living in a world where lies don’t matter anymore. There are only words and how effective they are to reaching desired outcomes. People don’t care about the truth. They care about achieving their goals. We’re living in Demon times.

BREAKING: Christian women in Nigeria weep after 173 people were kidnapped from Church service last Sunday. How is this not a bigger story? 173 innocent Christians kidnapped by Islamists.

The Minnesota Somali fraud exposes everything that is wrong with government. Politicians and their administrators spend other people’s (taxpayers’) money to advance their own interests —getting themselves and their party elected and reelected by supporting an ethnic group which votes as a block — under the guise of supporting a purported good, in this case child daycare, autism care and ‘healthcare’ broadly defined. When this fraud is combined with a system which allows one voter to ‘verify’ up to eight other voters who do not have to show state or federal ID, at best you destroy the American people’s confidence in our democratic voting system, and, at worst, you have rigged elections. The only way this stops is for the people responsible to suffer severe criminal consequences and for there to be a Federal internal audit system where private citizen bounty hunters who find fraud earn rewards equal to a percentage of the grift identified. The time to fix our broken system is now.

Straight talk from Mike Rowe as he explains why our country’s focus must be on training our young people for trades rather than pushing them into a college degree they may never be able to use. “We’ve got 7.2M men not participating in the workforce, and not looking for work. We have $1.7 T in student loan debt on the books. We’ve got 7.6M positions that don’t require a 4 yr degree, and yet we keep lending money to kids who are never going to be able to pay it back; to train them for jobs that don’t exist anymore. If we want to close the skills gap, we need to make a more persuasive case.”
