at all-time high
Posted By: Ribicon, 7/7/2022 3:50:07 PM
Americans’ confidence in the Bible’s veracity is at an all-time low, Gallup Inc. reported Wednesday, with just 20% professing a belief that the religious book is the literal word of God. For the first time, more Americans are Scripture doubters than they are believers. Gallup noted that 29% of those surveyed said the Bible is comprised of “fables, legends, history and moral precepts recorded by man.” Gallup said 49% of those responding took the view that the Bible is “inspired by God” but that not all of the book is “to be taken literally.”(Snip)Lack of confidence in the Bible as God’s word, the polling firm said, could

One of the two illegal aliens accused of plotting a mass shooting on the Fourth of July in Richmond, Virginia, has been given a mere $15,000 bail. As Breitbart News reported, Guatemalan nationals 52-year-old illegal alien Julio Alvardo Dubon and 38-year-old illegal alien Rolman Balacarcel Ac were arrested by the Richmond Police Department for allegedly plotting a mass shooting at the city’s annual July 4th celebration. The mass shooting plot was thwarted thanks to an American “hero citizen,” according to police, who called in a tip. Court records and the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency confirmed that Dubon and Ac are illegal aliens.
House Oversight and Reform Ranking Member James Comer (R-KY) told Breitbart News in an exclusive statement that when Republicans take control of the House, they plan on investigating reports that President Joe Biden sold nearly one million barrels from the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) to a Chinese state-owned gas company that has financial ties to a private equity firm cofounded by Hunter Biden. The Washington Free Beacon’s Collin Anderson released a bombshell report that Biden’s Department of Energy sold one million barrels to Unipec, the trading arm of Sinopec. Sinopec is wholly owned and operated by the Chinese Communist Party.
Philadelphia—The City of Philadelphia is offering a $20,000 reward for information on a group of suspects wanted in connection with the beating of an older adult who later died. According to police, on June 24 at 2:38 a.m. 72-year-old James Lambert was attacked by a group of "teen offenders" on the 2100 block of Cecil B. Moore Avenue. Surveillance video released by police shows members of the group hitting Lambert in the head with objects, including a traffic cone. The video also appears to show one of the group members recording the attack on a cellphone.(Snip)This comes amid a rise in crime amongst teenagers
Dozens of people lined up for vaccines against monkeypox in New York City Friday as the city launched its second jabbing drive. The queue—formed mostly of men—snaked around the side of the Chelsea sexual health clinic in Manhattan this morning. Gay or bisexual men who have multiple sexual partners over two weeks are again being offered the jab in America's monkeypox capital, alongside anyone exposed to a patient with the tropical disease. But the 2,500 appointments available for the jabs ran out within minutes yesterday, as thousands hurried to grab a slot. Health officials were slammed for a 'technical glitch' which allowed so many people to book slots early
A State Department grant of $500,000 to fund the promotion of the rights of atheists and other nonbelievers in the Near East and South-Central Asia has drawn fire from more than a dozen members of Congress who say the goal is to push atheism, which they assert is a component of “radical, progressive orthodoxy” worldwide.
The 2021 grants were designed to allow “members of minorities and marginalized groups—particularly atheists and nonbelievers” to network and campaign for their freedom alongside religious believers, but Rep. Jim Banks, Indiana Republican, and 14 other signers of a letter to President Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken say the funds
Berkeley, Mo.—A man is facing charges after he was accused of beating his neighbor to death in Berkeley, Missouri, Wednesday morning. Isaac Heath, 31, was charged Thursday with first-degree murder, a class-A felony, and armed criminal action. St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney Wesley Bell said there was some type of disturbance outside a home on Kathlyn Drive Wednesday morning. The victim, Eileen Schnitker, went outside to check out what was going on and Bell said that's when the woman was attacked. According to the Berkeley Police Department, the defendant was seen standing on the victim's porch, swinging a bat and striking an object.
Officials with NASA and the European Space Agency condemned Russia for using the International Space Station to show support for breakaway regions in Ukraine that have aligned with Moscow following its invasion of its neighbor. In a rare public rebuke, NASA on Thursday accused its Russian partners of using the space station as a forum to back President Vladimir Putin’s war against Ukraine, calling it “fundamentally inconsistent with the station’s primary function among the 15 international participating countries to advance science and develop technology for peaceful purposes,” according to Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty. NASA issued the statement after Roskosmos, the Russian space agency, released photographs showing three of its cosmonauts
House investigators want three firearm companies to testify at a July 20 hearing on gun violence in the wake of mass shootings in New York, Texas and Illinois. Rep. Carolyn B. Maloney, New York Democrat and chair of the House Oversight Committee, said Thursday they will take a closer look at the marketing behind “AR-15-style” weapons that are usually tied to mass shootings. Ms. Maloney requested information and testimony from Daniel Defense, Smith & Wesson Brands, and Sturm, Ruger & Company. “Products sold by your company have been used for decades to carry out homicides and even mass murders, yet your company has continued to market assault weapons to civilians,”
Joe Biden, as his former daughter-in-law recounts in her new memoir, comes on strong. That’s no surprise to anyone who has read the allegations of sexual inappropriateness against President Biden, or has seen the multiple videos and photos of creepy Uncle Joe with women and young girls: sniffing their hair, massaging their shoulders, pressing his forehead against theirs, grabbing them by the arm or kissing them on the lips, pulling them in close for a full-contact hug. Betsy DeVos, in her new memoir, is the latest to claim unwanted forehead-to-forehead contact.(Snip)“It was gross, and it was also a feeble attempt to intimidate me,”
The gunman who fired a shot that hit an NYPD detective in a marked car in Brooklyn last month was aiming for a romantic rival, police said Thursday. Police identified the shooter as Jah-Mike Woolridge, 27, who lives steps from the scene of the shooting—and was busted for criminal possession of a weapon in 2011. Woolridge was allegedly firing at another man he was feuding with over a woman at around 4:30 p.m. on June 23—just as Detective Sunjay Verma was driving with his partner through the crossfire on Pitkin Ave. at Legion St. in Brownsville. At least nine shots were fired—with one bullet shattering the cruiser’s
Emmett Till protesters stormed a senior living facility in search of the woman who has been accused of setting a lynch mob on him after a 1955 arrest warrant was unearthed in a Mississippi courthouse.
Carolyn Bryant Donham, now in her 80s, of Raleigh, North Carolina, reportedly accused Till of whistling at her in a grocery store in Money, Mississippi, in 1955.(Snip)On Wednesday, the Lead Counsel for the Black Lawyers for Justice, Malik Shabazz, and other activists stormed a senior living center in search of her.(Snip)'We on the move. We don't know how they're hiding this white woman down here, they're hiding Carolyn Bryant Donham,' Shabazz
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre defended the performance of the U.S. economy Thursday when she was pressed on a new poll showing an overwhelming majority of Americans think the country is on the 'wrong track.' She was asked about a bleak Monmouth University poll that came out Tuesday, showing a stunning 88 per cent of Americans who say the nation is on the 'wrong track'–and just 10 per cent saying it is going in the right direction. 'I don't think it's that our plan is not popular with the American people. We know that the American people are feeling the high cost. We understand what they are feeling

On Wednesday evening, leftist protestors harrassed Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh at a Morton’s Steakhouse in Washington, D.C., forcing him to leave the restaurant, according to a report from Politico. “Honorable Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh and all of our other patrons at the restaurant were unduly harassed by unruly protestors while eating dinner at our Morton’s restaurant,” the representative of the chain restaurant said in a statement. “Politics, regardless of your side or views, should not trample the freedom at play of the right to congregate and eat dinner. There is a time and place for everything. Disturbing the dinner of all of our customers was an act of selfishness
President Joe Biden’s scandal-ridden son, Hunter Biden, received a front-row seat at the White House Medal of Freedom ceremony held on Thursday.
Hunter Biden, who attended the ceremony with his wife Melissa Cohen, became a de facto greeter for the attendees due to his front-row seat. The president’s son was seen shaking hands and hugging multiple ceremony attendees as they entered the White House’s East Room and took their seats.(Tweet/Video) President Biden awarded the Medal of Freedom to several of his political allies.

CNN host W. Kamau Bell wore a t-shirt that read “I WILL AID AND ABET ABORTION” before President Joe Biden‘s speech and executive order on abortion.
Bell wore the shirt of Friday’s episode of CNN’s At This Hour, which he appeared on to promote the new season of his CNN show, United Shades of America.
The segment was scheduled just ahead of Biden’s remarks, so there was a chance it would get cut off to show the speech.
RICHMOND, Va. — More than 300 employees from five state agencies have resigned since Gov. Glenn Youngkin announced Virginia’s new telework policy in early May, according to records obtained by 8News. This includes 183 Virginia Department of Transportation employees, 28 of whom cited “telework options” as the reason for leaving. Two VDOT workers who listed telework as the reason did move to another state agency, records obtained by 8News after filing a Freedom of Information Act request show. On May 5, Youngkin updated the state’s telework policy for all state employees to begin working in-person full-time by July 5, a
Hunter Biden blamed First Lady Jill Biden for forcing him to go back to rehab – calling her a 'selfish silly entitled c***', 'a moron', 'stupid', and 'vain' – after she offered him a house and sent him loving messages.
The biting insults were made behind his stepmother's back in text messages on a newly uncovered backup of Hunter's cell phone stored on his abandoned laptop.
The vicious verbal attack, appears to be over Hunter's family asking him to go back to rehab in winter of 2018.

An Army training slide obtained by Breitbart News instructs soldiers to shower with transgender members of the opposite sex even if they have not undergone a surgical transition.
The training slide offers a “vignette” instructing soldiers on what to do if they encounter a female soldier who identifies as male according to the Department of Defense’s personnel tracking system known as Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS), but has not surgically transitioned and still has “female genitalia.”
The slide, titled “Soldier/Unit Training Barracks, Bathrooms, and Showers,” reads:
The Biden administration has signaled its intention to punish Texas border agents who were falsely accused of “whipping” Haitian migrants last year.
The Daily Caller reported Friday that U.S. Customs and Border Protection has proposed charging the agents with “poor judgement” and “unsafe conduct” in connection with the viral incident, though those suggestions have not yet been finalized.
The Post previously reported that the September 2021 encounter near Del Rio, which made international headlines and sparked a political firestorm, was the subject of an administrative investigation by CBP’s Office of Personal Responsibility.

Billionaire Elon Musk called off his deal to buy social media company Twitter, according to a filing on Friday with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Skadden Arps attorney Mike Ringler said in a letter to Twitter's chief legal officer that “Twitter has not complied with its contractual obligations." For nearly two months, the company has failed to provide Musk with information about fake or spam accounts, the letter said.
A left-wing activist group is encouraging users on social media to tweet the location of any of the conservative Supreme Court Justices Brett Kavanaugh, Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, Neil Gorsuch, Amy Coney Barrett and John Roberts in exchange for money.
The six conservative justices were the majority who voted to overturn the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade decision last month. June. Since then, pro-abortion activists have repeatedly protested outside the justices' homes and, in some cases, confronted them in public.
ShutDownDC is promising a bounty of $50 for anyone who shares a 'confirmed sighting' and a further $200 if they are still in that location half an hour later.
President Joe Biden’s administration sold 950,000 barrels of oil from the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve to a Chinese state-owned gas company that has financial ties to a private equity firm cofounded by Hunter Biden, according to a Washington Free Beacon report.
In April, Biden’s Department of Energy announced the nearly one million barrel sale to Unipec, which is the trading arm of Sinopec. Sinopec is wholly owned and operated by the Chinese Communist Party.
Unipec reportedly purchases oil across the globe and then apparently sells it through its Sinopec Marketing subsidiary. According to Unipec’s LinkedIn page:
There is growing concern that we may never learn the identity of the person who for the first time in history leaked a draft of a pending decision. It’s been nine and a half weeks since the draft opinion on Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health was published by Politico on May 2. Although this is the biggest breach in Supreme Court security in history, we have had no indication that the culprit has been identified. This is strange, given the very small pool – fewer than 100 clerks, justices and support staff
More than 60,000 unvaccinated Army National Guard and Army Reserve soldiers will be barred from performing their military duties and have their pay and benefits cut because they refuse to get their shots, officials announced on Friday.
'Soldiers who refuse the vaccination order without an approved or pending exemption request are subject to adverse administrative actions, including flags, bars to service, and official reprimands,' according to a statement from the Army.
There are about 40,000 National Guard soldiers and 22,000 Reserve soldiers how have not been vaccinated.

And by no coincidence whatsoever, the influence of communism in the USA is at an all-time high, in every aspect of our lives. Gallup correctly notes that turning away from the Bible also implies that the divine guidance found within will be less influential when forming public policy, which is a big part of why the communists attack religion.
