Pakistani Muslim attempted to rape 15-year-old Christian maid
A Muslim businessman in Pakistan has falsely charged a 15-year-old Christian girl and two of her relatives with theft in retaliation for leaving his employ following his attempt to rape her, reports The Christian Post.
Javed Masih, a Catholic vegetable vendor in Punjab province, said that his daughter, Muskaan, worked as a maid in the house of Muhammad Haider.
He said that his daughter was in a state of shock when she came out of the house, tears flowing down her cheeks.
Masih said, “Upon inquiring, Muskaan told his wife that Haider, [the Muslim employer], had attempted to sexually assault her, taking advantage of being alone in the house. My wife was shocked to hear this, but instead of confronting Haider at that time, she decided to first inform me about the incident.” It turns out the Muslim employer had made multiple sexual advances and had been harassing her from the time she began working in his house in September.
In Matthew 18:6, Jesus said, “If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in Me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.”
When the 15-year-old Christian girl stopped working for the Muslim man, he filed false charges that she had stolen $3,000 worth of gold jewelry from the home.
Trump rings opening bell at New York Stock Exchange
On Thursday, President-elect Donald Trump rang the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange after promising to deliver an economic boom to a cheering crowd of traders and business leaders. At one point, as you’ll hear, the room broke into a chant of “U-S-A.”
REPORTER: “The incoming leader of the free world, he’s going to ring the bell here in about 20 seconds. An historic moment at the New York Stock Exchange as we get the opening bell rung by the President-elect, Donald Trump!”
(audio of ringing of the bell at the New York Stock Exchange)
CROWD: “USA! USA! USA! USA!”
Trump named Time Magazine’s “Person of the Year”
For the second time, Time Magazine named Donald Trump “Person of the Year.”
In the opening paragraphs to the cover story, Eric Cortellessa wrote, “Trump’s political rebirth is unparalleled in American history. His first term ended in disgrace, with his attempts to overturn the 2020 election results culminating in the attack on the U.S. Capitol. He was shunned by most party officials when he announced his candidacy in late 2022 amid multiple criminal investigations.
“Little more than a year later, Trump cleared the Republican field, clinching one of the fastest contested presidential primaries in history. He spent six weeks during the general election in a New York City courtroom, the first former President to be convicted of a crime—a fact that did little to dampen his support. An assassin’s bullet missed his skull by less than an inch at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, in July.”
Cortellessa of Time Magazine concluded, “Over the next four months, Trump beat not one but two Democratic opponents, swept all seven swing states, and became the first Republican to win the popular vote in 20 years. He has realigned American politics, remaking the GOP, and leaving Democrats reckoning with what went awry.
“Trump has a ready explanation for his improbable resurrection. He even has a name for its climactic final act. ‘I called it 72 Days of Fury,’ he says as the interview gets under way. ‘We hit the nerve of the country. The country was angry.’
“It wasn’t just the MAGA faithful. Trump harnessed deep national discontent about the economy, immigration, and cultural issues. His grievances resonated with suburban moms and retirees, Latino and Black men, young voters and tech edgelords.”
Before he rang the opening bell at 9:30 a.m., a first for him, Trump spoke at the New York Stock Exchange.
TRUMP: “It's really been something very special. And I have to say, Time Magazine getting this honor for the second time. I think I like it better this time. Actually been on the cover many times. I don't know who has the record, but I can only probably talk well about 25% of the covers. 25% are great. The others, I just sort of hide. But it's been an honor.
“This is a double because usually they don't coordinate the Man of The Year or the Person of The Year with the ringing of the bell. Brilliantly, you picked them both at the same time. You were all friends, and you said, ‘Let's do it.’
“The economy, I believe, is going to be very strong. We do have to solve some problems. We have wars going on that we didn't have. We have a lot of things happening that we didn't have, that would have never happened. They have happened, and I want to get them solved.”
GOP Rep: Why hasn’t Biden fired DOJ personnel over “selective prosecution”?
When President Joe Biden issued his unconditional pardon of his son Hunter on December 1st, the president said this. “No reasonable person who looks at the facts of Hunter’s cases can reach any other conclusion than Hunter was singled out only because he is my son – and that is wrong. There has been an effort to break Hunter – who has been five and a half years sober, even in the face of unrelenting attacks and selective prosecution.”
In light of that bold assertion by President Biden that his own Department of Justice has singled out his son, Hunter, and selectively prosecuted him, Republican Congressman Jason Smith of Missouri, the Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, asked an important question about Biden and the Department of Justice on the Fox News Channel.
SMITH: “If Biden actually believed that his son was politicized by the Justice Department's prosecution, then why has he not fired one employee of the Justice Department? Because if he believes that there is corruption, if he believes that they’re unfairly targeting individuals, he has the authority to fire those prosecutors, yet he hasn't done that.”
Abortion mills could face mass closures if Trump defunds Planned Parenthood
And finally, Donald Trump has committed to vetoing any federal abortion law that makes it to his Oval Office desk, but there are other ways to cripple America’s booming abortion industry, reports LifeSiteNews.com.
Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, Trump’s appointees to head the new Department of Government Efficiency, have already noted their commitment to defund Planned Parenthood, America’s largest abortion provider, by possibly $300 million.
Plus, Vice President-elect J.D. Vance had already stated in October that a second Trump administration would defund Planned Parenthood.
Isaiah 59:7 describes the abortion giant well. “Their feet rush into sin; they are swift to shed innocent blood. They pursue evil schemes; acts of violence mark their ways.”
If the Trump administration makes good on that promise, it will lead to mass closures of Planned Parenthood abortion mills nationwide.
In response to the proposed cut by the newly created Department of Government Efficiency, Planned Parenthood issued a press release on November 21st in which it claimed that Americans were already “taking control of their sexual and reproductive health.”
On November 6 – the day after the election was called – Planned Parenthood locations saw:
vasectomy appointments increased by 1,200%;
IUD appointments increased by over 760%;
birth control implant appointments increased by 350%;
and, [so-called] gender-affirming care appointments, [where people pretend to be the opposite sex with hormones and surgeries], increased by 140%.And that's The Worldview on this Friday, December 13th, in the year of our Lord 2024.
