Sudanese police arrest pastor for not giving Muslim the church

In an apparent attempt by a Muslim businessman in Sudan, Africa to seize church property, the police arrested and jailed a pastor on October 28th in River Nile State, reports Morning Star News.

At 6:00pm, two police officers arrived at the home of Rev. Daud Kachu of the Sudan Presbyterian Evangelical Church in Atbara and presented him with an arrest warrant.

When congregation members said he needed to speak with the church attorney first, the officers initially feigned understanding, but two other policemen, hiding behind the church building, appeared and forced Pastor Kachu into a vehicle.

They took him to the Atbara police station, where he was jailed. An intensive interrogation followed on October 29th, and police conveyed the Muslim businessman’s demand that he had 30 days to vacate the church premises.

The police officers said, “The law is above your religion.”

Police demanded that the pastor sign a document stipulating that he would no longer object to anyone trying to seize the church property, but the pastor refused.

Rev. Kachu, who has led the church for 30 years, was initially denied bail, but police later released him after intervention by the church attorney.

In Psalm 105:15, God warns, “Do not touch My anointed ones, and do My prophets no harm.”

Box Office Massacre: October Revenue Falls to 27-Year Low, Excluding Pandemic

Halloween is shaping up to be scarier than ever for Hollywood and its exhibition partners, but not in a good way, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Domestic box office revenue for October 2025 is expected to come in at roughly $425 million — the worst showing in 27 years, according to Comscore. This excludes October 2020, the heart of the COVID-19 pandemic, 

Two problems. First, many October titles simply didn’t resonate with general audiences. Second, fewer people are going to the silver screen.

MN Supreme Court allows men, pretending to be women, to compete in powerlifting

The Minnesota Supreme Court ruled unanimously on October 22nd that men have a right to cheat in women’s sports, reported Fox News. The particular sport in question makes the ruling even more outrageous—powerlifting -- where men have a decided strength advantage biologically speaking.

 
Don’t forget: This is the state where Governor “Tampon Tim” Walz put tampons in boys’ bathrooms while letting boys go into girls’ bathrooms.
 
Walz and his Democrat predecessor, Mark Dayton, appointed all of the state’s Supreme Court justices. The fact that the decision was unanimous proves how the Left is “all in” on radical transgender ideology.
 
The New Left tells women today, “You have to let a man watch you undress and your daughter has to compete against boys.”

Trouble In Chinatown

In New York City’s Chinatown district, illegal vendors are selling counterfeit merchandise like fake Gucci purses, designer clothing, and  high-end watches, reports Breitbart.com.

That’s not only illegal, it also hurts legitimate merchants who cannot compete with the fake knockoffs. Merchants have repeatedly complained to the city, but to no avail.

 
Federal immigration police launched an enforcement operation. They arrested nine illegal aliens, most of whom had committed additional crimes. Their rap sheets included robbery, assaulting police officers, drug trafficking, drug possession, forgery, and domestic violence.
 
Gary Bauer of Campaign for Working Families, wrote, “This enforcement operation was a ‘win-win’ for New York City. Immigration police got rid of illegal merchants and criminals.

“But what happened? There was a riot in Chinatown as leftists rushed into the streets to prevent immigration police from doing their jobs. This is what the Left has fomented around America. They have inspired an insurrection that is resisting federal law enforcement.”

Tucker Carlson: Abortion enthusiasts have a “religious fanaticism” about killing

In the footsteps of the late Charlie Kirk, conservative commentator Tucker Carlson took a strong stand for life recently during a Turning Point USA event at Indiana University in response to a pro-abortion student, reports LifeSiteNews.com.

Listen.

STUDENT: “A lot of what's happening in this country with people using religion to justify their stance against abortion. People are using

religion….”

CARLSON: “May I just suggest something.  I've never seen religious fanaticism like I see among the abortion enthusiasts. (applause) From my perspective, it's so obviously a child sacrifice rite.

“The number of unintended pregnancies in an age of universally available free birth control is probably pretty low. They happen, okay.  The wicked, gleeful enthusiasm that people have for abortion.”

STUDENT: “Who is enthusiastic?”

CARLSON: “Oh? Shout your abortion? (laughs) I think there's some enthusiasm. Putting an abortion truck outside the Democratic Convention? There's a lot of enthusiasm for it.

“I kind of believed the ‘My body, my choice’ thing. I really thought that's what it was about. Bodily autonomy.”

STUDENT: “That is what’s it’s about?”

CARLSON: “Really? So, where were you on the COVID Vax?” (cheers applause) It's not about that. What it's about is killing. It's about killing and the thrill that people derive from killing another human being and the power they feel when they kill.”

STUDENT: “Is that a real argument that you're making?”

CARLSON: “No, it's not an argument. It's a reality.  I've seen it when people plan wars. I've actually seen that happen. I've seen it when people in power show videos of them killing people with drones or whatever. And they get so high from it. There's no greater thrill than extinguishing life because that makes you ‘God.’ I think that's the most evil thing there is, and one of the greatest temptations that people have is to kill because it makes them feel powerful.”

Isaiah 59:7 says, “Their feet rush into sin; they are swift to shed innocent blood. They pursue evil schemes; acts of violence mark their ways.”

Wheel of Fortune no longer family friendly

And finally,

ANNOUNCER: “From the Sony Pictures studio, it’s America’s Game …”

PEOPLE: “Wheel of Fortune.”

The Wheel of Fortune game show is no longer family friendly, reports OneMillionMoms.com.

Sadly, they have recently added a puzzle category entitled “What the Fun” which winks at the insinuated profanity of the most obscene word in the English language, making Wheel of Fortune no longer suitable for family viewing.

After Pat Sajak hosted it for 41 years, Ryan Seacrest replaced him as Vanna White continues to reveal the correct letters in the hangman style guessing game that enriches contestants with cash and prizes,

Parents will have to explain to their children that the primetime program they were once allowed to watch is no longer a clean show.

Let the executives at Wheel of Fortune know that you do not approve by signing the online petition which is linked in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com.
