Charlie Kirk ‘Was Doing the Thing that the People in Charge Hate Most… Calling for Them to Repent’– www.breitbart.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

Tucker Carlson delivered a Christ-centered speech at Charlie Kirk’s memorial service in Arizona on Sunday, receiving thunderous applause after encouraging the crowd to listen to the assassinated Turning Point USA founder’s message of faith.

The conservative commentator took to the stage at State Farm Stadium in Glendale in front of tens of thousands of people to shift their focus to Kirk’s “Christian Evangelist” beliefs:

“This is the most unbelievable thing I think I’ve ever seen,” Carlson began, referring to the enormous, lively audience. “Whatever happens next in America — I hope it’s in this direction, because God is here, and you can feel it. And Charlie would have loved this, not just because he loved large groups of people, but because ultimately, he was a Christian evangelist.”

Carlson then brought up how people conspired against Jesus in the Bible: 

It actually reminds me of my favorite story ever. So it’s about 2000 years ago in Jerusalem, and Jesus shows up, and he starts talking about the people in power and he starts doing the worst thing that you can do, which is telling the truth about people — and they hate it, and they just go bonkers. They hate it, and they become obsessed with making him stop. ‘This guy’s got to stop talking. We’ve got to shut this guy up.’ And I can just sort of picture the scene in a lamp-lit room with a bunch of guys sitting around eating hummus, thinking about, ‘What do we do about this guy telling the truth about us? We must make him stop talking.’ And there’s always one guy with the bright idea, and I can just hear him say, ‘I’ve got an idea. Why don’t we just kill him? That’ll shut him up, that’ll fix the problem.’

It doesn’t work that way. It doesn’t work that way. Everything is inverted, and the Beatitudes tell it, I think, the most crisply, that everything is sort of the opposite of what you think it’s going to be.

Abortion Pill Reversal Saved This Baby From Abortion– www.lifenews.com

Excerpt:

… Ashley, a young woman who found herself at a difficult crossroads, overwhelmed and uncertain as the father of her child pressured her to have an abortion against her will.

She was told by abortion facility staff that her decision to take the abortion pill was final—that there was no way to save her baby despite her immediate regret. “I felt trapped, like I had no options left,” Ashley later recalled.

Devastated but unwilling to accept this as the end of the story, she desperately searched the internet for answers. That’s when she found Heartbeat International’s Abortion Pill Reversal® Network.

With the guidance of their dedicated team, Ashley began the Abortion Pill Reversal protocol in a race against time to save her preborn child.

“[Their team] gave me hope when I thought all was lost,” she said.

Today, thanks to her courageous choice and the science-backed APR protocol, Ashley is the proud mother of a beautiful daughter, Thailynn, a living testament to the power of hope and the sanctity of life.

Reflecting on her experience, Ashley shared, “They saved not only my life, but my daughter’s life. I was given a second chance to choose life, and I’ll be forever grateful.”

Now That Planned Parenthood Has Been Defunded, 1/3 of its Abortion Centers Could Close– www.lifenews.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

Pro-Life advocates have cause to celebrate: Planned Parenthood, the largest abortion business in the United States and the world, has officially been stripped of Medicaid reimbursements under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

This victory has been years in the making. Congress passed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act earlier this year, making history as the first federal budget to cut off funding to Planned Parenthood. Lawmakers boldly declared that taxpayer dollars should never prop up the abortion industry.

Yet, almost immediately, a federal judge in Boston, appointed by former President Barack Obama, blocked that part of the law from taking effect. That ruling gave Planned Parenthood temporary cover to continue distributing millions of taxpayer dollars while its lawsuit went through the courts.

This week, that shield crumbled. The First Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously lifted the rulings, allowing the defunding measure to take immediate effect. Remarkably, all three judges on the panel were appointed by President Joe Biden, showing that even jurists handpicked by an abortion-friendly administration could not justify Planned Parenthood’s baseless claims.

Charlie Kirk’s True Legacy: A Generation Unashamed– www.standingforfreedom.com

Excerpt:

The statistics should terrify every Christian parent: 66 percent of young people who regularly attended Protestant churches as teenagers drop out for at least a year between the ages of 18 and 22. Lifeway Research confirms what pastors have witnessed for decades: 70 to 88 percent of youth from evangelical homes abandon their faith after just one year in secular college. By high school, nearly 30 percent of seniors completely dismiss religion as important to their lives.

This is the spiritual battlefield on which Charlie Kirk planted his flag at just 18 years old. While many churches retreated into entertainment and shallow programming, this young warrior marched onto hostile campuses with an arsenal of biblical truth.

In barely 13 years of public ministry, he built what would become the largest conservative youth organization in America, Turning Point U.S.A., and helped untold numbers of young people recognize that eternal truth, not cultural lies, were the key to creating a life of purpose and joy.

His assassination in Utah last week revealed something the secular world cannot comprehend: Charlie Kirk’s greatest victory was not political but spiritual. He reversed the tide of apostasy by raising a generation unashamed of the Gospel.

The world knew Kirk as a political provocateur. But those with eyes to see recognize his true mission. In a candid 2022 interview, Kirk revealed his heart: “Politics is moments in time… I’m more focused on educational, transformational, multi-decade change.”

This wasn’t campaign rhetoric. It was the battle cry of a man who understood that souls matter more than votes and that worldview transformation precedes political victory.

REPORT: Jimmy Kimmel Loses It After Longtime Show’s Demise: ‘Fu**ing Livid’– trendingpoliticsnews.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

Jimmy Kimmel is “absolutely f**king livid” over ABC’s decision to “indefinitely” pull Jimmy Kimmel’s late night talk show from the air. The decision was made after major broadcasters announced that they would not be airing the show in response to Kimmel’s advancement of a blatant lie in which he baselessly claimed the suspected assassin of conservative activist Charlie Kirk was a Trump supporter.

The statement came shortly after broadcasting giant Nexstar Media Group, which owns and operates more than 200 television stations in 116 U.S. markets, announced Wednesday that it will be pulling Jimmy Kimmel Live! from its affiliates.

“Nexstar’s owned and partner television stations affiliated with the ABC Television Network will preempt Jimmy Kimmel Live! for the foreseeable future beginning with tonight’s show.  Nexstar strongly objects to recent comments made by Mr. Kimmel concerning the killing of Charlie Kirk and will replace the show with other programming in its ABC-affiliated markets,” the company announced in a statement.

Nexstar’s vast media portfolio reaches about 39 percent of American households, primarily through affiliations with major networks like ABC, CBS, Fox and others. This was followed up by a similar announcement by Sinclair, which controls a significant portion of local television networks themselves.

According to a report from the Daily Mail, Kimmel is “absolutely f**king livid” over the network’s abrupt decision, which came just an hour before he was set to tape his next show. “Absolutely f–king livid,” one producer told the outlet about how Kimmel took the news, adding that the late-night host is currently meeting with the network.

“This is clearly the government overreaching. There’s no such thing as free speech in America, if the government can lean on companies to stop any content they don’t like.”

Excerpt:

WASHINGTON — The Senate unanimously approved a resolution by Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, to condemn the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk during a voice vote on Tuesday.

Lee introduced the resolution shortly after Kirk’s death last week, calling on his colleagues to condemn his assassination “in the strongest possible terms” while also honoring his life and “commitment to the constitutional principles of civil discussion and debate between all people in the United States regardless of political affiliation.” The resolution passed in a unanimous voice vote when it was brought to the Senate floor for consideration.

“This is just a flag, planted on a hill,” Lee said of his resolution. “What matters is where we carry it next.”

The resolution was filed in conjunction with the House by Utah Rep. Mike Kennedy, who represents the district where Utah Valley University, the site of Kirk’s death, is located. That version has not yet been scheduled for a vote.

The resolution comes just days before Kirk’s family will hold a memorial service for the conservative activist in his home state of Arizona, which is expected to attract a large number of high-profile politicians and celebrities.

The House of Representatives cleared the way Wednesday for a vote on a resolution honoring slain pro-life conservative activist Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA.

Kirk was assassinated last week during a college campus speaking event in Utah.

The procedural vote, known as a rule vote, advanced the measure alongside a bill to avert a government shutdown, setting the stage for floor debate on the resolution later this week. A final vote could come as early as Thursday or Friday, according to congressional leaders.

The resolution, spearheaded by Speaker Mike Johnson, a Louisiana Republican, praises Kirk as “one of the most prominent voices in America, engaging in respectful, civil discourse across college campuses, media platforms and national forums, always seeking to elevate truth, foster understanding and strengthen the Republic.”

Transcript from RealClearPolitics:

BRET BAIER: Well tonight, in our Common Ground segment, a conversation on bringing the nation together, or trying to, to restore civility in politics. Joining me, Pennsylvania Senators Dave McCormick and John Fetterman. Pennsylvania, by the way, is one of only three states with a Democrat and Republican split in the U.S. Senate. Senators, thanks for being here. You all called me. Usually we reach out. You wanted to do this together. Why?

SEN. JOHN FETTERMAN (D-PA): Well, I mean, we thought it was just a great idea. I think it’s an important idea right now. I mean, the trauma after the Charlie Kirk assassination, and now, as things continue now, it’s like, I feel like it’s important that people can witness, you know, a Democrat and a Republican having a conversation after this. It’s absolutely horrific, and it’s entirely necessary to allow people to grieve for that. I mean, everyone’s seen the video.

SEN. DAVE MCCORMICK (R-PA): Yeah, it’s just the, the heartbreak, you feel for Charlie Kirk’s family, Eric and their children, and all the students across the country, the people across the country that were huge followers. And I think the Senator and I agreed that, and we, we do agree that there, there’s just no place in this country, for political violence. It, it’s absolutely something, it runs counter to the very idea of free, free speech and freedom, and that when you see, dangerous rhetoric, like fascist and Nazism and authoritarianism, that’s a, and, and the end of democracy, that’s a, that’s a permission. That takes us down a path where the inevitable next step is, is violence, and, and that’s what we see.

BRET BAIER: And Senator Fetterman, you’ve talked about that recently, calling somebody Hitler, calling somebody Nazis.

SEN. JOHN FETTERMAN (D-PA): Exactly, this idea, it’s like, do not ever, ever, ever compare anyone to Hitler. If not, go online and you can read up on exactly what he’s responsible for, you know, 75 to 80 million lives lost in World War II, and you don’t compare him to anyone. And if you do, then you will incite somebody to say, well, now I feel like I have to stop, to stop that and take them out.

Drug shows promise against aggressive cancers in trial– www.futurity.org

Excerpt:

An immunotherapy drug eliminated aggressive cancers in a clinical trial, researchers report.

Over the past 20 years, a class of cancer drugs called CD40 agonist antibodies have shown great promise—and induced great disappointment. While effective at activating the immune system to kill cancer cells in animal models, the drugs had limited impact on patients in clinical trials and caused dangerously systemic inflammatory responses, low platelet counts, and liver toxicity, among other adverse reactions—even at a low dose.

But in 2018, the lab of Rockefeller University’s Jeffrey V. Ravetch demonstrated it could engineer an enhanced CD40 agonist antibody so that it improved its efficacy and could be administered in a manner to limit serious side effects.

The findings came from research on mice, genetically engineered to mimic the pathways relevant in humans. The next step was to have a clinical trial to see the drug’s impact on cancer patients.

Now the results from the phase 1 clinical trial of the drug, dubbed 2141-V11, appear in Cancer Cell. Of 12 patients, six patients saw their tumors shrink, including two who saw them disappear completely.

“Seeing these significant shrinkages and even complete remission in such a small subset of patients is quite remarkable,” says first author Juan Osorio, a visiting assistant professor in Ravetch’s Leonard Wagner Laboratory of Molecular Genetics and Immunology and a medical oncologist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.

 

 

Trauma focused therapy shows promise for children with PTSD– cosmosmagazine.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

A new study has demonstrated how a specific form of therapy can help improve symptoms in children living with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), a mental health condition that develops after witnessing or experiencing a traumatic event.

Researchers from the University of East Anglia in Norwich, England have examined the effectiveness of trauma-focused cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) for treating young children who have been subjected to abuse, violence or serious accidents.

CBT is a treatment for mental health conditions that helps individuals to identify any negative thoughts they may have and teaches them self-help strategies to challenge and reduce these unhelpful thought patterns.

According to the World Health Organisation, roughly 3.9% of the world’s population has experienced PTSD at some stage in their life. While trauma-focused CBT is already used to help treat the disorder in adults, children who experience multiple traumas are often considered harder to treat.

“Recent research has shown that more than 7% of young people in the UK will have developed PTSD at some point by the age of 18,” says Richard Meiser-Stedman, the lead researcher of the study from the University of East Anglia, UK.

Kurdish-led forces arrest ISIS leader in east Syria: Monitor – rudaw.net

Excerpt:

The Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) on Sunday carried out a “precise security operation” to arrest a “prominent” Islamic State (ISIS) leader in Syria’s eastern Deir ez-Zor province, a war monitor reported.

The operation, conducted with support from the US-led global coalition, “resulted in the arrest of a prominent ISIS leader,” said the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a Britain-based war monitor, adding that it took place in the town of al-Shuhail.

The SDF has carried out numerous operations this year to counter what they say is a resurgence in ISIS activity targeting both their forces and civilians.

The Observatory noted that the suspect was whisked away “to a security agency for further investigation.”

Obama-Appointed Judge Blocked From Forcing Taxpayer Funding of Planned Parenthood Clinics– conservativeroof.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

A federal appeals court on Thursday blocked a lower court order mandating taxpayer funding for abortion giant Planned Parenthood.

A three-judge panel for U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit, all appointed by former President Joe Biden (D), ultimately allowed a congressionally approved measure stripping Planned Parenthood of taxpayer dollars through Medicaid to go forward as litigation continues. The order stays two July preliminary injunctions issued by Obama-appointed U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani, which blocked the defunding measure from going into effect.

“Notwithstanding the contrary conclusion reached by the district court after its careful consideration of the matter, we conclude that defendants have met their burden to show their entitlement to a stay of the preliminary injunctions pending the disposition of their appeals of the same,” wrote Judges Gustavo Gelpí, Lara Montecalvo, and Seth Aframe.

“The motion is GRANTED. The July 21, 2025 preliminary injunction and the July 28, 2025 preliminary injunction are hereby stayed pending disposition of the respective appeals,” they continued.

Republicans passed a measure in this summer’s “Big, Beautiful Bill,” stripping Planned Parenthood of taxpayer funding through Medicaid for one year. Defunding abortion providers through the reconciliation process allowed the Senate to bypass the critical 60-vote threshold for a simple majority vote, instead capitalizing on Republicans’ overall trifecta. While federal funding for abortions is barred by the Hyde Amendment — except in cases of rape, incest, or life of the mother — pro-life advocates argue no federal funds should be used to prop up any organization that performs abortions.

32,000 Students Step Up to Carry On Kirk’s TPUSA Vision– legalinsurrection.com

Excerpt:

Earlier this week, Turning Point USA revealed that the organization has received an astonishing 32,000 inquiries to start new campus chapters in just 48 hours, according to Charlie Kirk’s executive producer, Andrew Kolvet.

“The organization has received over 32,000 inquiries in the last 48-hours to start new campus chapters. To put that in perspective, TPUSA currently has 900 official college chapters and around 1,200 high school chapters.”

Those numbers far exceed the total number of colleges in America, suggesting that multiple students from the same school—and even multiple schools—are stepping up to carry on the movement. Kirk’s long-term goal was to establish “Club America” in every high school nationwide, about 23,000 in total. What once seemed ambitious now looks increasingly attainable.

Patriots flood London streets for Unite the Kingdom festival: ‘Cultural revolution has begun’– www.theblaze.com

Excerpt:

Patriots in London gathered Saturday for a historic march organized by British independent journalist Tommy Robinson.

Authorities estimated that the crowd, which flooded the blocks surrounding Whitehall, included roughly 100,000 individuals. Yet Robinson and other attendees of “Unite the Kingdom” placed those estimates in the millions.

‘The despicable traitor UK Prime Minister Slippery Starmer and virtually all of the corrupted regime media are lying about the Uniting the Kingdom rally.’

“We asked: ‘where are the men of England?'” Robinson wrote in a social media post the day after the festival. “And instead of only the men of England. The men, women, even their children, from all four corners of the UK, Ireland, Europe, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the list goes on, came calling, in their millions.”

Robinson declared that “a cultural revolution has begun.”

“The liberal elite and legacy media have labelled, everyone, ‘far right,’ for simply voicing an opinion that doesn’t fit theirs,” Robinson said. “Those labels don’t wash anymore, they massively overplayed their hands and exposed themselves. Millions of us in London yesterday. United as one.”

American podcaster Dan Keith stated, “The [sheer] weight of this massive crowd in London protesting their government and celebrating free speech is unbelievable with @TRobinsonNewEra and friends.”

Excerpt:

A Washington state high school principal has announced he is stepping away from his role after posting a controversial message on social media mocking the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

Erik McDowell, principal of North Creek High School in Bothell, drew backlash after sharing an Instagram story that read: “Thoughts and prayers. Too bad gun control would have been far far more effective (he’d still be alive). Maybe thoughts and prayers will work…oops – nope.”

The now-deleted post included a photo of Kirk with the caption, “Pray For Charlie Kirk.”

The Instagram post triggered multiple complaints from parents and community members. On Thursday, the Northshore School District issued a public statement acknowledging the controversy without naming McDowell directly.

“Northshore is committed to providing safe, welcoming, and supportive learning and working environments for all of our students, families, and staff,” the district said. “We are aware of the personal Instagram story made by one of our administrators. The concerned individuals were informed of the district’s formal complaint process. While we can’t discuss personnel issues, we take all concerns seriously and follow a standard response.”

The district encouraged parents and students with concerns to contact school staff or use its Safe Schools Tip Line, noting that submissions can be made anonymously.
