Namibia, Africa decriminalizes homosexual behavior
Last week, the high court of the Southern African nation of Namibia struck down a colonial law banning homosexual behavior in the country.
Last year, the same court legitimized homosexual faux marriage for a bi-national couple.
Homosexual behavior is criminalized in 30 African countries, and allowed in 24 countries now.
Supreme Court: Trump has limited immunity from prosecution
The U.S. Supreme Court ruled yesterday in favor of the former President, in relation to his post-election activities on January 6th, 2021, reports LifeSiteNews.com.
By a vote of 6 to 3, the high court granted Donald Trump immunity for official acts taken in his role as president of the United States. The majority on the court agreed with Trump’s appeal.
The decision, written by Chief Justice John Roberts, concluded that: “The President is not above the law. But under our system of separated powers, the President may not be prosecuted for exercising his core constitutional powers, and he is entitled to at least presumptive immunity from prosecution for his official acts.”
What remains to be answered is which actions taken after the 2020 election by the president were official and which were unofficial. This question is remanded to the lower courts.
Supreme Court deals blow to regulation stranglehold
Friday’s decision overturned the 1984 decision Chevron U.S.A. Inc. v. Natural Resources Defense Council Inc., — which to this point had allowed federal bureaucracies extensive latitude for interpreting law and implementing regulations.
Poll: Donald – 44%, Biden – 41%
The current president’s rating has also dropped off from 33% to 29%. And 76% of prospective voters polled say Donald Trump won last Thursday’s debate.
Colonel Macgregor: Biden’s cognitive decline means US gov’t is in "unelected hands"
Speaking of that debate, Retired U.S. Army Colonel Douglas Macgregor has said that “the governing power” of the U.S. lies “in unelected hands” after the first presidential debate highlighting President Joe Biden’s cognitive decline to the whole world, reports LifeSiteNews.com.
In a 5-minute video message published on the YouTube channel Our Country Our Choice, Col. MacGregor expressed his profound concern for the United States after Biden’s catastrophic performance.
Listen.
MacGREGOR: “President Biden is not fit to discharge the immense duties of the presidency. The alarming evidence of his cognitive decline was on display for all to witness. Yet his enablers and political allies continue to exploit the president to substitute their destructive agenda for the interests of the American people.
“The unconscionable betrayal of the sacred trust that must exist between the federal government and American citizens is all around us. Destructive executive orders and policy directives, many of which were likely signed when President Biden was in a rapidly diminished state of mind, inflicting tremendous damage on our nation.
“Sadly, President Biden's fragile mental state was laid bare for all to see in last night's debate. His responses were frequently incoherent, he appeared lost even confused, struggling to complete basic thoughts. It was heartbreaking, a spectacle that confirmed our worst fears about his deteriorating capacity.”
Col. MacGregor questioned the legitimacy of Biden’s executive orders in light of his demonstrable mental incapacity.
MacGREGOR: “No individual whose mental health is compromised, should be allowed to continue in the most demanding job on Earth. Americans, we find ourselves at a critical juncture in our nation's journey. In the private sector or in matters of estate planning, the validity of signatures made under such circumstances would be challenged and invalidated in a court of law.
“How can we accept crucial national decisions being made under these conditions? The American people deserve better. It is time to ask, ‘Who truly governs this country?’ Is it ‘we the people,’ as our Founders intended, or have we surrendered control to unelected bureaucrats?”
Trump ally Steve Bannon went to jail yesterday
Longtime Trump ally Steve Bannon was taken into custody yesterday after surrendering at a federal prison in Danbury, Connecticut. He began his four-month prison sentence on contempt charges for defying a subpoena in the congressional investigation into the events on January 6, 2021 at the U.S. Capitol, reports the Associated Press.
Speaking to reporters, Bannon called himself a “political prisoner.”
BANNON: “I'm a political prisoner of Nancy Pelosi. I'm a political prisoner of Merrick Garland. I'm a political prisoner of Joe Biden, the corrupt Biden establishment.
“You saw on Thursday, all the lies that they told any group that would sit there and lie to you about the shape of the President of the United States, with the national security element of that, lied about the 2020 election. They've lied about COVID. They've lied about everything that they've done to the American people and they're not going to stop. Until we stop them, they're not going to stop.”
Court injunction allows Good News Clubs into Hawaiian schools
Here’s some good news for the Good News Clubs sponsored by Child Evangelism Fellowship!
Since 2022, Hawaii’s Department of Education had denied every single request for access Hawaii’s primary schools by the Christian Good News Clubs.
Liberty Counsel has obtained a court injunction to open access to the Good News clubs in Hawaii, and provide “timely responses to future applications.”
In Mark 16:15, Jesus said, “Go ye into all the world, and preach the Good News to every creature.”
Criminal illegal immigrants entry to America has quadrupled
The official Customs and Border Protection numbers clocked 4,300 arrests in 2019. By contrast, this year that number is approaching 17,000 or an average of 1,459 per month.
Banks welcome gold back as a hedge in an uncertain economy
Interest in gold as a safe hedge is back, at least for the world banks.
For fifty years, between 1960 and 2010, the world banks shed their gold reserves, dropping from 1.23 billion ounces to 960 million ounces.
Now, for the last 14 years, the banks have been buying back gold. There is now 1.15 billion ounces of gold representing about 2.7% of the Gross World Product, reports WolfStreet.com.
New Mexico’s surgical abortions have tripled
Since 2020, the number of abortions performed in New Mexico has tripled.
Most of that is due to women from Texas seeking abortions across the border. Now, 71% of New Mexican abortions are out-of-state abortions, reports Abortion Free New Mexico.
The Word of God is firm on this: “You shall not murder.” (Exodus 20:13)
14 Worldview listeners gave a final $9,600
And finally, between some checks that just arrived in the mail at our P.O. Box and some last minute donations online on Sunday and yesterday, 14 Worldview listeners stepped up to the plate to fund our 6-member team for another fiscal year.
Our thanks to Jon in Dewitt, Michigan who gave $50, Johannah in Sedalia, Kentucky who gave $100, as well as Stacy in Metuchen, New Jersey, Michael in Estancia, New Mexico, Moriah, a 16-year-old, in Register, Georgia, and Jonathan in Atascadero, California – each of whom gave $200.
We’re grateful to LeShun in Newport News, Virgina who gave $250, Charles and Susan in Stroughton, Wisconsin $300, as well as Griffin in Kila, Montana and Shawn in Newaygo, Michigan – both of whom pledged $25/month for 12 months for a gift of $300 each.
And we appreciate the sacrifice of Max in Macon Georgia who gave $500, Mary in Wake Forest, North Carolina who pledged $50/month for 12 months for a gift of $600, an anonymous donor in Greenwood, Missouri who gave $2,400, and Jeanne in Columbia, South Carolina who gave $4,000.
Those 14 donors gave $9,600. Ready for our new grand and final total? Drum roll please. (sound effect of drum roll) $96,575! (audience cheering)
Absolutely incredible! We are blown away by your generosity. To each and every one of you who made a donation, whatever the size, we have a simple message. Thank you for believing in our unchanging mission: to report on world news from an unapologetically Biblical perspective. To God be the glory!
