Whole Foods enters mark-of-the-beast territory with palm payment readers

Whole Foods Market is rolling out a new palm payment reader devised by Amazon One, the contactless identification creation of Amazon, with expectations that all 500-plus grocery stores will offer the system before the end of this year. And so Americans move a step closer toward taking the mark of the beast.

Americans’ belief in hell falls to new lows

Seventy-four percent of Americans believe in God; 69% and 67% in angels and heaven, respectively -- but only 59% in hell and 58% in the devil, according to new polling from Gallup. Surprise! That's going to be the reaction of quite a few Americans one fine day. But the findings explain quite a bit about this nation's drift.

Bold & Blunt: Christians must judge

One of the most common retorts that Christians who call out evil hear is, 'Hey, you can't judge me -- the Bible says thou shalt not judge.' But how can a Christian live a godly life without judging?

A person walks along the Las Vegas Strip devoid of the usual crowds after casinos have been ordered to shut down due to the coronavirus, March 18, 2020, in Las Vegas. Loneliness in America can be deadly. In May 2023, U.S. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy declared it an American epidemic, saying that it takes as deadly a toll as smoking upon the population of the United States. “Millions of people in America are struggling in the shadows," he said, “and that’s not right.” (AP Photo/John Locher) ** FILE **

Bold & Blunt: Why go to church? One answer: To live longer

As more and more turn to the religion of "none," fewer and fewer believe in God, and greater and greater numbers of youth embrace socialism -- the faithless fruit of the Democrat Party -- church attendance in America is dropping. And that's having a devastating effect on Americans' health.

Face masks bans — finally

In-N-Out, a fast-food burger franchise, sent around a notice to employees -- which was then posted by a critic of the company policy on Twitter -- that said the wearing of face masks was prohibited at work, save for those who could show a doctor's note advocating otherwise. Finally. A return to common sense.

Dear God, please don’t let Kamala Harris become president

Vice President Kamala Harris, fresh off her stint as "border czar," has taken on a new role as "A.I. czar" -- which, as she likes to helpfully explain, stands for, boys and girls, "arr-tuh-fih-shul in-tell-li-jense." Dear Lord, please don't let Harris become president. Ever.

Bold & Blunt: America in moral crisis of mounting globalism

If you want to stop the onslaught of globalism from destroying America's sovereignty, then quick -- pick up a Bible, teach your kids biblical truths and recapture the essence of American Exceptionalism: God-given rights. And elect Donald Trump in 2024.

The people who stand up to the storm are the ones who go down in history, not just in this world, but in the heavenly sphere, as the true successes in life. Agree?

U.N. pressing preelection takedown of American sovereignty

The United Nations is gathering in September 2024 to debate and then adopt a collective plan for global governance, one that if fully implemented, will mean the end of America the free. Now, more than ever, it's crucial to elect a president who can effectively fight the peril of globalism. Donald J. Trump, anyone?

Liberal swamp D.C. finally sees the error of soft-on-crime ways

The District of Columbia Council passed an emergency crime bill this week that gives judges more power to punish criminals. Imagine that. One of the nation's biggest liberal swamplands has become so overrun with crime its leaders are actually acknowledging: Umm, police ain't such a bad thing after all.

Wiping out womanhood, one LGBTQ step at a time

A male pretending to be a female just won the crown in the "Miss Netherlands" beauty contest and now heads to El Salvador to compete for the title of "Miss Universe." This is beyond absurd. It's dangerous. Soon enough, women won't even be a thing.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a punchline — but a dangerous one

On surface, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a goon. A goof. A Dopey McDope Face with eyes so vacant she makes porcelain dolls on shelves seem intelligent. But she's a socialist who holds a congressional seat, duly elected not just once, but twice. And that makes her a danger to America. 'Lest we forget.

Jill Scott’s twisted ‘home of the slaves’ anthem face-slaps all America

SingerJill Scott took to an Essence Fest stage and belted out a rendition of the National Anthem that subbed out the phrases "by the dawn's early light" and "what so proudly we hailed" for "by the blood in the streets" and "that this place doesn't smile on you, colored child." Hmm. Did I mention she's a millionaire?

Climate ‘hottest day’ lies ratchet, and lockdowns loom again

The news cycle is filled with headlines about the "hottest day ever recorded," and the "Earth's hottest day" -- and so forth, and so on, and so we go. Make way for the spontaneous combustion of earth and with it, all of humanity, right? Not so fast. Pay your mortgage. The hysteria is based on lies.

Freedom reigns, as judge tells Team Biden, Big Tech to quit collusion

A federal judge just issued a preliminary injunction ordering the Biden administration to stop reaching out to social media companies with complaints about "disinformation" and "misinformation" -- a ruling that, in effect, means Democrats have to stop censoring the American people.
