If You’re Paying Attention, Biden Just Told Us How Democrats Plan to Rig & Steal 2024 Election By Wayne Allyn Root

Biden did it again.

A feeble, decrepit, brain-dead, old man with dementia and diapers is running the country. Have you heard?

And people with dementia often “spill the beans.” They have no filter. So, they act like little kids - they say whatever is on their mind. Secrets come spilling out.

Pay attention to Joe Biden. He has dementia and belongs in a nursing home, not the White House. So, sometimes secrets come spilling out of his decrepit mouth.

The secret to how Democrats planned to beat Trump in the 2020 presidential election came spilling out of Biden’s decrepit mouth during the 2020 campaign.

If only we had listened and acted.

Biden said (and I quote word), “We have put together, I think, the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics.”

Oops.

That was on October 24, 2020. Don’t believe me? Watch here:

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-voter-fraud-organization-video-gaffe

Biden spilled the beans. He told us how Democrats were going to win. They were going to rig and steal the election with voter fraud.

And they did.

They used mail-in ballots with no Voter ID; ballot drop boxes with no oversight; ballot harvesting- a scam that is illegal in every other country in the world; no signature match; and millions of illegal aliens voted too. Without Voter ID and no one asking about citizenship at the polls, it’s easy.

That’s exactly how the 2020 election was stolen. Old decrepit dementia puppet Biden told us what they planned to do, and they did it.

Biden said, “VOTER FRAUD.” Why didn’t anyone listen?

Well, old decrepit Joe has done it again. So, this time we’d better listen and take action. Because out of the mouths of little children, and decrepit old men with dementia, comes truth.

During an interview with a Spanish radio station last week, Biden referred to millions of illegal alien foreign invaders as “Hispanic voters.”

There it is. That’s the Democrat plan to steal the 2024 presidential election.

Biden also said two other telling things. He said that speaking Spanish is “America’s Future.” And he said the millions of illegal aliens who have crossed his open border into America are “the only reason our economy’s so good.”

Oh my God.

Out of “the mouth of babes” comes truth. This is the Democrat’s new updated plan to intentionally destroy America. Biden just told you.

Trump is leading by a landslide. Blacks, legal Latinos, young voters- everyone hates Biden. Everyone hates “Bidenomics” and this crappy economy. Everyone hates Biden’s massive inflation. Everyone hates the direction of America.

Polls show Biden is the most unpopular president in 70 years- worse than even Carter or Nixon. His approval on the economy and inflation is the lowest in modern history.

And that’s why Trump is leading by double digits in the most recent reliable polls. And winning all the battleground states- including my home state of Nevada by 12 points and Georgia by 10. The latest AARP poll also shows Trump pulling away in Pennsylvania.

James Carville, one of the most brilliant political strategists and soothsayers in history, had a meltdown days ago. He is losing his mind because nothing the Democrats are saying or doing can stop Trump. Not calling him “Hitler.” Not using abortion as the only issue 24/7. Not indictments, rigged trials, or even convictions. “Nothing is working,” Carville ranted like a madman.

Actually Carville is wrong. It is all working- for Trump.

But trust me, Democrats have a plan. Biden just told you. It’s called, “The Great Replacement.”

Biden (and his boss Obama- the real President) have let in millions of illegals, or as Biden just called them, “voters.” Why would anyone want to let in millions of foreign invaders, criminals, terrorists and the world’s poverty-stricken who require welfare from cradle to grave? You’d have to be insane. You’d have to be a suicide bomnber.

Because to Democrats these are all simply new Democrat voters.

Give them all $10,000 visa cards, $2,000 cash, free flights anywhere they want (without any ID necessary to board planes), free food, free healthcare, free phones and free legal services. Add in welfare, food stamps and Medicaid. Add in free public school for each illegal alien child- worth $20,000 to $40,000 per child, annually.

And then ask only one thing in return- fill out the voter registration form and vote for Biden and straight Democrat down the ballot.

And of course, no one needs to read or speak English. Conveniently, they can all vote in Spanish. That’s why Biden calls the Spanish language “America’s future.”

The open border isn’t about letting illegal aliens into America. It’s about letting Democrat voters into America.

These sheeple will vote Democrat to thank Biden for letting them in. They will vote Democrat to keep from being deported. They will vote Democrat to keep the welfare checks and food stamps coming.

Democrats know Trump is winning by a landslide with legal American citizens- including this time around with large numbers of blacks, Hispanics and young voters. So, the only way to overcome perhaps 10 to 20 million new Trump voters is to import 25 million illegal alien foreign invaders to outvote and replace the citizens.

Hence the name “The Great Replacement.”

Don’t you get it? The polls show a Trump landslide. And they’re accurate, IF we’re only counting legal American citizens. But polls don’t count illegal aliens. These poll numbers don’t include millions- perhaps 25 million- of illegal alien voters.

Add them in and Trump’s landslide lead evaporates into thin air.

This is how Democrats plan to turn a landslide Trump victory into a loss. “It’s all about the illegals, stupid.”

Biden just told us.

Despite ominous polling data showing former President Donald Trump holding leads in key battleground states, there are strong indications that President Joe Biden is still polling well among the important 3 A.M. mail-in ballot demographic.

Democratic strategists expressed confidence that this crucial voting block, which played an important role in his 2020 victory, is still firmly in President Biden's corner, leading many insiders to believe that November's presidential election will turn out differently than current battleground polls indicate.

"We'll be just fine," said Biden campaign chief Julie Chavez Rodriguez. "Mr. Trump's camp may be crowing about all the polls showing him having a lead, but we all know which votes are really the important ones. As long as Donald Trump struggles to win the 3 A.M. unverified mail-in votes, President Biden will still end up being the choice of the American people. Joe just knows how to win those middle-of-the-night votes."

While Trump has built impressive leads in many important states heading into the general election, Biden's track record of winning an overwhelming percentage of votes among ballots that surreptitiously arrive after polling locations have closed and don't have verifiable signatures looms large. "Trump can build as big of a lead as he wants," Chavez Rodriguez said. "It won't matter. We know that the 3 A.M. mail-in ballot demographic will come in strong for us in the end. It may even come in stronger for us this year than it did in 2020. In fact, I know it will."

At publishing time, when asked how many 3 A.M. mail-in votes they expected to need, Biden's campaign said it wouldn't know until election night.

The Man Who Wrestled Global Hunger To The Ground by Jarrett Skorup

In the winters, I spend my time officiating high school wrestling. Last year, while going through my pre-meet duties, I noticed a wrestler with the last name Borlaug. I asked him if he knew who Norman Borlaug was and was delighted to learn that wrestler was his great-nephew.

Wrestling must be in the family blood, because Norman Borlaug was an accomplished high school and college wrestler who helped expand the popularity of sport at the high school level in Minnesota. (He also worked as a referee). He was inducted into the National Wrestling Hall of Fame.

The coach of Borlaug’s great nephew, a high school civics and history teacher, overheard our conversation and asked, “Who’s Norman Borlaug?”

That’s a typical response whenever I mention him. In fact, I didn’t learn of him until after completing my college degree. It’s a shame how few people know the name or the remarkable achievements of the man who took action to feed the world’s population at a time when much of the scientific establishment believed we were on the verge of an inevitable global famine.

Called “arguably the greatest American in the 20th century,” Norman Borlaug probably saved more lives during his 95 years than any other person. He is one of just six people to win the Nobel Peace Prize, the Congressional Gold Medal and the Presidential Medal of Freedom. And yet Dr. Borlaug, who died in 2009, is scarcely known in his own country.

Born on a family farm in Iowa in 1914, Borlaug spent most of his life in impoverished nations inventing, improving and teaching the Green Revolution. His idea was simple: Make developing countries self-sufficient in food by teaching them how to use modern agricultural techniques that are simple to implement. Borlaug spent most of his time in Mexico, Pakistan and India, and focused on five areas: seeds, irrigation, fertilizers, pesticides and mechanization. His successes were remarkable.

In 1950, Mexico imported more than half its food. Thanks to Borlaug’s efforts to convince farmers there to try his techniques, Mexican food production increased tenfold by 1970, and the country had become a net exporter. In India and Pakistan, production doubled. Multiple sources estimate that Borlaug's efforts, combined with those he trained and equipped, saved the lives of one billion human beings.

The Green Revolution was almost entirely funded by developing countries and private charities (notably, the Rockefeller and Ford foundations), rather than by the governments of prosperous nations. At the time, the overwhelming view of academic, intellectual and political elites in wealthy countries was that it was already too late.

Biologist Paul Ehrlich’s 1968 bestseller “The Population Bomb” typified this attitude.

“The battle to feed all of humanity is over,” Ehrlich wrote. “In the 1970s and 1980s hundreds of millions of people will starve to death in spite of any crash programs embarked upon now.” He later said, “I have yet to meet anyone familiar with the situation who thinks India will be self-sufficient in food by 1971,” and “India couldn’t possibly feed two hundred million more people by 1980.” Ehrlich’s book, required reading at many colleges, stated that it was a fantasy that India would ever feed itself.

But Ehrlich was ignorant of what Norman Borlaug was already in the process of accomplishing. This is the most famous of many of Ehrlich’s colossal errors, which stemmed from a skepticism of markets and human ingenuity.

“In Pakistan, wheat yields rose from 4.6 million tons in 1965 to 8.4 million in 1970,” Reason magazine science writer Ronald Bailey noted back in 2000. “In India, they rose from 12.3 million tons to 20 million. And the yields continue to increase. Last year [1999], India harvested a record 73.5 million tons of wheat, up 11.5 percent from 1998. Since Ehrlich’s dire predictions in 1968, India’s population has more than doubled, its wheat production has more than tripled, and its economy has grown ninefold.”

In spite of Ehrlich’s claims, Borlaug had India feeding itself within a mere five years of the release of “The Population Bomb.” Around the time of Ehrlich’s misguided doom-mongering, Borlaug’s colleagues at the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research were spreading his ideas about high-yield rice through Asia, causing another food production explosion. Toward the end of his life, Borlaug was working to institute his agricultural revolution in Africa.

It’s a great irony of my life that at my public high school, we read Ehrlich while never learning about Borlaug.

No good deed goes unpunished, so we shouldn’t be surprised that Borlaug was attacked by proponents of the trendy new faith of radical environmentalism, on the grounds that Green Revolution farming requires pesticide and fertilizer. Gregg Easterbrook quotes Borlaug saying the following in the 1990s:

“(Most Western environmentalists) have never experienced the physical sensation of hunger. They do their lobbying from comfortable office suites in Washington or Brussels. If they lived just one month amid the misery of the developing world, as I have for 50 years, they’d be crying out for tractors and fertilizer and irrigation canals and be outraged that fashionable elitists in wealthy nations were trying to deny them these things.”

There’s an old proverb: “He who has bread has many problems. He who has no bread has only one problem.” During Borlaug’s long career, and continuing to today, modern-day environmentalism typically focuses on massively intrusive government interventions requiring trillions of dollars and enormous societal change. Whether the issue is feeding the hungry, international aid or reliable energy, much less is said about solving real current problems through human ingenuity and proven methods given to us through free enterprise or market solutions.

More than 50 years ago Borlaug wrote, “One of the greatest threats to mankind today is that the world may be choked by an explosively pervading but well-camouflaged bureaucracy.”

Some things never change.

Christ Is King and I Don’t Care If That Makes Me Antisemitic by Andrew Torba

In light of Candace Owens and The Daily Wire “ending their relationship” last week after the factual statements she made about Israel and Jews, I think it’s a good time to answer a serious question from a Biblical perspective that far too many American Christians get wrong: just who are God’s Chosen People?

Pastor Andrew Isker wrote an excellent piece on the subject a few weeks ago and I encourage you all to read it with eyes to see. American Christianity has been utterly devoid of the orthodox, historical, and Biblical perspective on this topic for far too long, but thankfully many Christians are waking up to the truth of the matter.

When people like Candace Owens speak these truths and stand their ground despite being “canceled” more people come to see this truth with their own eyes. I encourage you to pray for Candace and her family because her journey in fighting for the truth has only just begun. We must stand with her against these wicked and evil people.

They will stop at nothing to silence and intimidate her, trust me I’ve lived it. The past few years have been very difficult for me. I’ve faced an onslaught of stalkers, doxxing, harassment, and credible threats of violence against my family because I dare to proclaim the truth of God’s Word on the internet in front of millions of people and provide a platform for millions of others to do the same thing. When the world is telling you that you cannot proclaim certain truths about God’s Word you have a duty and an obligation to share those truths even more. This is a requirement. You cannot pick and choose which parts of God’s Word you want to defend and believe in. It’s all or nothing.

While these trials in my own life have certainly been challenging they have been worth it. More and more people are waking up to the reality of who is really running this country into the ground. The truth of this reality cannot be contained by any amount of censorship. Candace is very brave for speaking about these things from her very large platform and we must stand with her amidst these attacks. She could have kept her mouth shut, kept her head down low, and ignored the patterns of behavior and truth that is there plainly to see, but she didn’t. Far too many “influencers” take the money and keep their mouths shut. Candace did what Christians are commanded to do: speak the truth boldly.

I don’t think many of you realize what time it is. In the past few months alone both South Dakota and Georgia governors signed bills codifying the IHRA definition of antisemitism into state law. This definition includes claims of Jews killing Jesus being “antisemitism.” Guess what that means, Christian? You can no longer share Bible verses such as Matthew 27:24-25, 1 Thessalonians 2:14-15, and many others which clearly and unequivocally state that the Jews killed Jesus Christ. The Stone Choir Podcast recently released an incredible episode on this subject. If you only listen to one podcast this year I highly encourage you to let it be this episode. You should also share it with your Pastor or Priest.

https://stone-choir.com/the-required-confession/

Let’s also not forget Rabbi Ron DeSantis and his recent flight to Israel to sign similar anti-1A legislation for the state of Florida making it illegal to pass out flyers in the street that Jews find offensive. Flyers that happen to contain some of these very Bible verses that I mentioned above as well as other factual and verifiable information on them.

“Communist China” isn’t doing this. “The radical left” isn’t doing this.

Red state governors are doing it at the behest of their Jewish donors and Zionist “Christians” are standing by and letting it happen.

Christ is King

For several years now I’ve ended all of my emails and blog posts with the phrase “Jesus Christ is King.” Asserting the Kingship of King Jesus makes His enemies tremble. Simply invoking His name in conversation will make them cower in fear. There is power in His name and there is supreme authority in asserting His Kingship, which is precisely why these demons are trying to prevent you from saying “Christ is King” by calling it “antisemitic.”

Shortly after Candace Owens started proclaiming “Christ is King” in front of her millions of followers many Christ-hating Jewish leaders started attacking her character on X. This is a common occurrence when prominent figures in conservative circles proclaim the name of Christ in conversation and it’s why unfortunately many Christians in conservative media circles rarely bring up their faith or talk about Jesus at all.

Candace fired back at these despicable rabbis with factual and verifiable information about the state of Israel and the nature of political and social influence that Jews have in our country. Candace’s Jewish boss Ben Shapiro didn’t like this one bit and so now she no longer works at the Daily Wire.

Following her departure a familiar narrative broke out from Conservative Inc circles. The claim that saying “Christ is King” is “antisemitic” when it is said to an unbelieving Jew. New “sins” are being fabricated from thin air not by the Christless pagans on the left, but by those who claim to be Christians on the conservative right. Andrew Klaven, an ethnically Jewish convert to Christianity who also works for the Daily Wire, did a segment on this controversy following Candace’s departure and made this claim.

His segment is so bad on so many levels. It hurts my heart that many sincere Christians will listen to this man and take what he says here seriously, but make no mistake this is straight from the pit of hell. Like many others Klaven says that those who proclaim Christ’s Kingship are antisemitic. This entire segment is about him elevating his Jewish ethnic identity above his identity in Christ. He is not concerned that the Kingship of his Savior is being attacked, he is instead concerned that his ethnic tribe is being offended by that Kingship.

He is in error and should be rebuked.

Klaven then continues to bear false witness against fellow believers in the segment by claiming that those of us who proclaim that Christ is King also believe that God has abandoned the His Chosen People and that He has broken His promises.

Nothing could be further from the truth.

None of us believe God has abandoned His Chosen People. First of all the Bible is very clear: God’s Chosen People are Christians, not unbelieving Christ-rejecting Jews (1 Peter 2:9.) God did not abandon the Jews, they abandoned Him when they killed and rejected His Son Jesus Christ. (1 Thessalonians 2:14-15)

None of us believe God has broken His promises. All of His promises were fulfilled in Christ. (2 Corinthians 1:20) There are no special side promises to unbelieving Christ-hating Jews. They missed the boat 2,000 years ago. The good news is they can still get back on the boat if they repent and accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. This is Christianity 101. Stating these facts isn’t “antisemitic” and even if it was it wouldn’t matter: Christians are required to affirm these facts because this is plainly what the Word of God says. When you deny the Word of God to appease the feelings of a Christ-rejecting Jew you are sitting at a table that Jesus flipped over and denying Christ Himself.

The very worst part of Klaven’s segment on this topic is when he tells us about his “friend” Ben Shapiro. He claims that if Ben were to embrace Jesus Christ it would cause “devastation” for his life. He would be worse off. Klaven apparently believes God wants Ben to continue to reject His Son. With friends like this who needs enemies? This is madness. As Christians our heart longs for the salvation of our unsaved friends and family. My own heart longs for Ben Shapiro to repent and accept Jesus Christ as His Lord and Savior. It’s unthinkable that Klaven would say this as a Christian.

So Who Are God’s Chosen People?

Those who are in Christ, regardless of ethnicity, are part of Abraham’s seed. Those who deny the son, regardless of ethnicity, do not have the Father. Galatians 3:29, 1 John 2:23

Romans 9:6-7 states “For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel. Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children.”

In Romans 11, Paul uses the metaphor of an olive tree. The natural branches (Jews) were *broken off* because of unbelief, and wild branches (Gentiles) were grafted in. Yet there’s hope that the natural branches can be grafted back in ONLY if they accept Jesus Christ—who is the root. (Revelation 22:16)

The Old Covenant was completely fulfilled and rendered *obsolete* with the destruction of the Temple in AD 70, as indicated in Hebrews 8:13. This marks a transition to the New Covenant, which is open to all through faith in Jesus Christ

No one who rejects Jesus Christ has any covenant with God simply because of their ethnic background. “God’s Chosen People” initially referred to the Israelites but has now been expanded to include all who believe in Jesus Christ, irrespective of ethnic background. This is based on passages like Galatians 3:28-29, which emphasize unity in Christ regardless of ethnic distinctions. What are God’s people chosen for? The answer in both the new and old covenants is simple: Jesus Christ. You can’t reject Him and be part of God’s Chosen People. Period.

If unbelieving Jews aren’t God’s Chosen People then what are they?

“Who is the liar? It is whoever denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a person is the antichrist—denying the Father and the Son” (1 John 2:22). This verse highlights that at the heart of being antichrist is the denial of the core Christian belief in Jesus as the Christ and the Son of God.

The concept also extends beyond individuals to what John calls the “spirit of the antichrist,” which was already at work in the world during his time (1 John 4:3). This refers to a broader movement or attitude that opposes or seeks to replace Christ, which is exactly what modern Jews wish to do today—thus making them antichrist.

So when they call you “antisemitic” you need to be calling them antichrist, because they are. One of those words is in the Bible, the other is made up by antichrist Jews. If that offends you, take it up with God.

Make no mistake about it: the demons attacking the Kingship of Christ during Holy Week is no coincidence, but rest assured brothers and sisters: the gates of hell will not prevail.

Christ is King, and I don’t care if that makes me antisemitic.

Deal with it.

If you’ve had your fill of German terms of endearment and want to learn how to insult someone instead, look no further. Some of these insults are amusingly innocent-sounding, while others are pretty devastating so let’s hope you don’t wind up on the receiving end of one of those.

Here are 30 of the best German insults:

1. Arschgeige
Someone who doesn’t perform a particular task very well can be called a “butt violin,” or arschgeige.

2. Bananenbieger
Someone who’s engaged in a pointless task, who can’t concentrate, or has no direction in life can be called a bananenbieger, or “banana bender.”

3. Erbsenzähler
A “pea counter” is a nitpicker who obsesses over the little details. Similarly, you can call an overly pedantic person who always plays by the rules an ameisentätowierer, or “ant tattooist.”

4. Lustmolch
This word literally translates to “pleasure newt,” which is what you’d call someone who can’t get enough horizontal refreshment (a delightful 19-century slang term for sex).

5. Arsch mit ohren
A “butt with ears”—or, put simply, a complete ignoramus.

6. Evolutionsbremse
An “evolutionary brake” is an unintelligent person whose very existence on Earth hinders the advancement of the human species, so to speak.

7. Einzeller
In a similar vein, this word means a “single-cell organism.”

8. Hosenscheißer
These “trouser-poopers” are cowards.

9. Dünnbrettbohrer
A “driller of thin planks” is someone who takes the easy way out and does the bare minimum.

10. Spargeltarzan
This imaginative insult translates to “asparagus Tarzan,” and describes someone who is thin and gangly.

11. Kotzbrocken
A “lump of puke.”

12. Heißluftgebläse
A “hot air gun” is someone who talks too much, but about nothing. You can also call someone a labertasche, or “babble bag.”

13. Gehirnverweigerer
A “brain denier” is someone who doesn’t use their noggin often.

14. Teletubbyzurückwinker
This word, which means “someone who waves back at Teletubbies,” describes someone who isn’t too bright.

15. Schluckspecht
A boozer who hits the bottle too much can be called a “guzzling woodpecker.”

16. Stinkstiefel
A “smelly boot” is an especially grouchy person.

17. Tratschtante
A “gossip aunt” is someone who loves to spread rumors and talk about other people.

18. Rotzlöffel
A brat—literally, “snot spoon.”

19. Speichellecker
A “saliva licker,” or brown-noser.

20. Lackaffe
A “varnish monkey” is an overly flashy man who dresses garishly.

21. Schweinehund
In English, someone who behaves crassly can be called a “pig” or a “dog.” German combines both into schweinehund, meaning “pig dog.”

22. Trantüte
Here’s one for your morning commute: You can call the slowpoke in front of you a trantüte, or a “bag of whale blubber.”

23. Backpfeifengesicht
Backpfeife is a slap across the cheek, and gesicht is face. Put them together and you get “a face that invites a slap.”

24. Blockflötengesicht
Remember the recorder from your childhood music class? It has seven holes and blows hot air, just like a “recorder face,” or blockflötengesicht. (It refers to a person’s two eyes, two ears, two nostrils, and mouth.) Basically, it means a stupid person, or someone given to meaningless talk.

25. Socken-in-Sandalen-Träger
There are a few sock-oriented taunts in German. A socken-in-sandalen-träger, or “socks-in-sandals wearer,” is kind of a wimp. So is a sockenschläfer (someone who sleeps in socks) and a sockenfalter (a man who folds his socks).

26. Weichei
Likewise, “soft eggs” are weak or wimpy.

27. Warmduscher
A warmduscher is a wuss who takes warm showers.

28. Jeansbügler
Someone who irons their jeans.

29. Tee-trinker
Someone who drinks tea—most likely when everyone else is drinking beer.

30. Schattenparker
Someone who parks in the shade.

Who Are God’s Chosen People? by Pastor Andrew Isker

“We must give eleventy gazillion dollars to Israel because ‘they are God’s Chosen People’ and ‘those who bless you I will bless’” is a refrain Christians have been told their entire lives. There is no single theological issue that is the cause of greater confusion among Christians than what the status of Israel is in the New Covenant.

Christians are in the New Covenant. Most Christians understand this. But the confusion begins when we consider the Old Covenant. What was the point of the Old Covenant?

When God made a Covenant with Abraham and then developed it further with his descendants under Moses, what was the purpose of it?

How is the New Covenant made in Jesus’s blood so radically different?

These are questions that were sorted out throughout the New Testament. And despite much of the New Testament dealing with this issue, and millennia of Christian tradition extrapolating from it, confusion reigns today.

There is a whole panoply of false notions many Christians have unfortunately been taught to believe. For many Christians today, the Old Covenant was “the way you got saved before Jesus.” Despite a host of examples of non-Jews getting saved in the Old Testament (Jethro, Naaman, the whole city of Nineveh in Jonah, Nebuchadnezzar, etc.) many who think of it that way believe that only Jews in the Old Testament were saved. They think the special regulations that Israel was under in the Old Covenant—laws of clean and unclean, food regulations, sacrifices, etc.—were what you had to keep in order to go to heaven.

Because we don’t read and study the Old Testament, we fall prey to totally false notions like these. Because we don’t know the Old Testament, we have a hard time understanding the New Testament and what is new about the New Covenant. Because ignorance of the scriptures abounds, even from those called to teach it, we are in a very similar situation to the church at the time of the Jerusalem Council in Acts 15.

It was at this point in the history of the apostolic period that the false teaching of Judaizing began to take off. Satan had done his best to attack the church through external persecution, through the killing of Christians, but these efforts failed—the church continued to grow. So instead he took a much more insidious tactic. He began to attack the church from the inside. False apostles went to the churches and taught that in order to truly be saved, one must come under the rule of the Old Covenant—you must be circumcised and keep the Law of Moses. In the Jerusalem Council, Paul and Peter successfully made the case to the rest of the apostles that, no, the Gentiles—the non-Jewish believers—were just as much a part of the faith as Jews were. Peter had witnessed the Holy Spirit come upon the Roman centurion Cornelius and his household in the exact same manner He came upon the apostles at Pentecost. Paul had just preached to the Gentiles in Asia Minor and masses of them came to the faith. James and the rest of the apostles had concluded that the prohibitions on occult practices such as eating food sacrificed to demons, eating blood and animals strangled so as to retain their blood, and sexually immoral practices that are found in Leviticus 17-18 had always been binding on Jew and Gentile alike, and remain in force. The Gentiles in the Old Covenant era were under a covenant with God, too—the Noahic Covenant. And so this determination by the apostles was that this part of Leviticus was a universal feature of God’s moral law, binding to all mankind in the Covenant He made with Noah. The rest, laws regarding food, clean and unclean, what clothing you could wear, and requirements to keep the liturgical calendar and feasts, were not binding upon Christians. The reign of the Old Covenant had come to an end with the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

For us today, we are in a similar position as the church in Acts. In many cases, we are in a much worse place. We, generally speaking, don’t have any idea what the Old Covenant was about or what the Old Covenant was for. The best way to explain it is to look at the Nazirite Vow (Number 6:1-21). Samson, Samuel, and Paul later in this book, take Nazirite vows. A Nazirite was a special holy warrior who took on special restrictions during the time of his vow. He wouldn’t drink wine or eat grapes, could not touch anything dead, and could not cut his hair. But when his warfare was over, he cut his hair, made an offering, and resumed normal life. This is the Old Covenant that Israel was under in a microcosm. God had set apart Abraham with circumcision, and later the children of Israel with the laws of Moses with special regulations on clean and unclean, what they could and could not eat, even the clothes they could wear. The reason He did this is not because keeping these laws saved them, but because they were the people He chose to be His priests who led the nations of the world to Him. That is why they were under all these special regulations. And Jesus, the true Israel, came and kept this law perfectly, and kept the point of this law perfectly: going to the cross to die so the world could be saved. He did what Israel could not and would not do. And once His warfare was complete, the Nazirite cut his hair, so to speak. The Old Covenant had been fulfilled by Jesus Himself.

This is the point that the Book of Hebrews makes: you don’t need a priestly people because a new High Priest, not in the order of Aaron but of Melchizedek, the Gentile, was serving as High Priest and this High Priest would never die. The world is now in something like a redeemed Noahic covenant. All of mankind has access to God directly through Jesus.

So this is why it is so abominable to assert that Gentiles need to become Jews in order to be saved. The Jews thought they were the only saved people in the world, which was always false, but this error crept into the church subverting it. You must not go back to the Old Covenant which at that time was quickly passing away.

Understanding this is crucial in our day for several reasons. First, we don’t really get what the law is. God has revealed His eternal standards for righteousness in His Law. Modern antinomians—people who say there really is no law at all—will say that in the New Covenant, we are under grace not the law and so everything that God says is righteous and just in the Old Testament just gets thrown out. Similarly, unbelieving mockers like to attack Christians who don’t understand their Bibles as well as they should saying “Why are you saying homosexuality is a sin? Don’t you know that right next to all the passages about homosexuality being a sin is stuff about not eating pork and shellfish and not wearing clothing with two kinds of fabric? You eat bacon so you can’t say anything bad about Drag Queen Story Hour.” But James and the Jerusalem Council answered this objection. They took out their highlighter to Leviticus and said “These are the special regulations that God put upon the priestly people” and with another color, they highlighted chapters 17 and 18 and said, “these are the laws for all of mankind for all time.” They answered these stupid objections 2000 years ago for us.

The second reason we need to understand this is because many Christians are very confused about the status of Jews today. You have many popular teachers on TV who will tell you “Yes, Jesus said, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life, no one comes to the Father except through Me,’ but the Jews are God’s chosen people so they can somehow be saved apart from Jesus.” That is entirely untrue. And in fact, it is a species of what the Judaizers taught, just in the other direction. Being Jewish does not save you. Having the Torah does not save you. Only Jesus saves you. But many Christians today do not understand this, and so we are easily manipulated by all sorts of false teachings. We misunderstand the promise to Abraham and His Seed, that “I will bless those who bless you and curse those who curse you, and all the families of the earth will be blessed through you.” (Genesis 12:3) Paul makes very clear in Galatians that the Seed of Abraham is Christ, not those who reject Him (Galatians 3:16). Instead of being manipulated into wanting billions of dollars to flow to a foreign country, Christians should be concerned with Christ and His people being blessed.

Hebrews, written just before the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple tells us very clearly what the status of the Old Covenant is: In that, He says, “A new covenant,” He has made the first obsolete. Now what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away (Hebrews 8:13). The very locus of the Old Covenant, its absolute center and beating heart was the temple in Jerusalem. And when that temple fell, the Old Covenant was finished forever. There is no more Old Covenant left. All the promises God made to His people are fulfilled in Jesus Christ. “And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” (Galatians 3:29).

That is the great purpose of the New Covenant that all the nations belong to Jesus and they must fear God and glorify Him. Jesus has accomplished what Israel could not, He completed her warfare and now sits on the throne of David forever. We must have the same perspective as the apostles: that the world is Christ’s and we must announce the victory of Christ’s kingdom everywhere.

We must search out the scriptures deeply. We must recover the knowledge of the scriptures that we have lost. To not see the Old Testament as some kind of historical appendix to the New Testament that you can read only if you are interested, but rather to see it as one complete book that is unified. The Old Testament shows us God’s eternal purposes for the world not just one nation. It shows us the priestly people awaiting the King and High Priest who would finally do what they could not. It shows us a God who always wanted all the nations, who from the very call of Abraham had declared that all the families of the world will be blessed through you and your Seed. That Seed of Abraham has come and that Seed reigns over the entire world right now. That the world belongs to Him and you play a role in the conquest of His Kingdom.

A somber mood fell over one of the nation's foremost defense contractors this morning, as Raytheon lowered its flags to half-staff after Nikki Haley announced she was dropping out of the 2024 presidential race.

The aerospace technology corporation, which had been holding out hope that the world would enter a new era of highly profitable war, destruction, and death with the onset of World War III, was devastated by this morning's news that Haley had suspended her campaign.

"This is a major blow," said a Raytheon spokesperson. "We are deeply saddened by the news of Nikki Haley dropping out of the race. It is a dark day for us and for anyone who was hoping for a much darker future for the human race, and indeed the entire world. We have lowered our flags to half-staff in solemn memory of the dream we shared with Nikki Haley of endless wars and vast rivers of defense contract money."

In a brief statement, Haley also acknowledged disappointment that she would be unable to lead the country into a global conflict that would wreak havoc on human civilization. "It is indeed a sad day," she said. "While Donald Trump continues his quest to return the world to a state of peace and stability, we hoped to plunge the globe further into very lucrative chaos. I thank my dear friends at Raytheon for their support, the millions and millions of dollars they have given me over the years, and their ongoing desire to see the world burn."

At publishing time, Raytheon's parent company had already offered Haley a seat on its board of directors.

DEI killed the CHIPS Act by Matt Cole and Chris Nicholson

DEI — the identity-obsessed dogma that goes by “diversity, equity, and inclusion” — has now trained Google’s new AI to refuse to draw white people. What’s even more alarming is that it’s also infected the supply chain that makes the chips powering everything from AI to missiles, endangering national security.

The Biden administration recently promised it will finally loosen the purse strings on $39 billion of CHIPS Act grants to encourage semiconductor fabrication in the U.S. But less than a week later, Intel announced that it’s putting the brakes on its Columbus factory. The Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) has pushed back production at its second Arizona foundry. The remaining major chipmaker, Samsung, just delayed its first Texas fab.

This is not the way companies typically respond to multi-billion-dollar subsidies. So what explains chipmakers’ apparent ingratitude? In large part, frustration with DEI requirements embedded in the CHIPS Act.

Commentators have noted that CHIPS and Science Act money has been sluggish. What they haven’t noticed is that it’s because the CHIPS Act is so loaded with DEI pork that it can’t move.

The law contains 19 sections aimed at helping minority groups, including one creating a Chief Diversity Officer at the National Science Foundation, and several prioritizing scientific cooperation with what it calls “minority-serving institutions.” A section called “Opportunity and Inclusion” instructs the Department of Commerce to work with minority-owned businesses and make sure chipmakers “increase the participation of economically disadvantaged individuals in the semiconductor workforce.”

The department interprets that as license to diversify. Its factsheet asserts that diversity is “critical to strengthening the U.S. semiconductor ecosystem,” adding, “Critically, this must include significant investments to create opportunities for Americans from historically underserved communities.”

The department does not call speed critical, even though the impetus for the CHIPS Act is that 90 percent of the world’s advanced microchips are made in Taiwan, which China is preparing to annex by 2027, maybe even 2025.

Handouts abound. There’s plenty for the left—requirements that chipmakers submit detailed plans to educate, employ, and train lots of women and people of color, as well as “justice-involved individuals,” more commonly known as ex-cons. There’s plenty for the right—veterans and members of rural communities find their way into the typical DEI definition of minorities. There’s even plenty for the planet: Arizona Democrats just bragged they’ve won $15 million in CHIPS funding for an ASU project fighting climate change.

That project is going better for Arizona than the actual chips part of the CHIPS Act. Because equity is so critical, the makers of humanity’s most complex technology must rely on local labor and apprentices from all those underrepresented groups, as TSMC discovered to its dismay.

Tired of delays at its first fab, the company flew in 500 employees from Taiwan. This angered local workers, since the implication was that they weren’t skilled enough. With CHIPS grants at risk, TSMC caved in December, agreeing to rely on those workers and invest more in training them. A month later, it postponed its second Arizona fab.

Now TSMC has revealed plans to build a second fab in Japan. Its first, which broke ground in 2021, is about to begin production. TSMC has learned that when the Japanese promise money, they actually give it, and they allow it to use competent workers. TSMC is also sampling Germany’s chip subsidies, as is Intel.

Intel is also building fabs in Poland and Israel, which means it would rather risk Russian aggression and Hamas rockets over dealing with America’s DEI regime. Samsung is pivoting toward making its South Korean homeland the semiconductor superpower after Taiwan falls.

In short, the world’s best chipmakers are tired of being pawns in the CHIPS Act’s political games. They’ve quietly given up on America. Intel must know the coming grants are election-year stunts — mere statements of intent that will not be followed up. Even after due diligence and final agreements, the funds will only be released in dribs and drabs as recipients prove they’re jumping through the appropriate hoops.

For instance, chipmakers have to make sure they hire plenty of female construction workers, even though less than 10 percent of U.S. construction workers are women. They also have to ensure childcare for the female construction workers and engineers who don’t exist yet. They have to remove degree requirements and set “diverse hiring slate policies,” which sounds like code for quotas. They must create plans to do all this with “close and ongoing coordination with on-the-ground stakeholders.”

No wonder Intel politely postponed its Columbus fab and started planning one in Ireland. Meanwhile, Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo was launching a CHIPS-funded training program for historically black colleges.

Now the secretary is calling for a second CHIPS Act. Before that, let’s make the one we have usable. There’s an easy fix. A bipartisan group of lawmakers is already trying to pass a bill exempting CHIPS funding from the multiyear environmental review required by the National Environmental Policy Act. The same need for speed calls for adding in a veto of the Commerce Department’s diversity tag-alongs.
All Congress has to do is insist it meant what it said in the CHIPS Act and no more: giving poor people opportunities isn’t a free pass to enact all of DEI’s pet causes, and especially not to make national security wait on them. What Congress didn’t give, Congress should be willing to take away.

This is the stuff declining empires are made of. As America pursues national security by building a diverse workforce, China does it by building warships.

The CHIPS Act’s current identity as a jobs program for favored minorities means companies are forced to recruit heavily from every population except white and Asian men already trained in the field. It’s like fishing in all the places you aren’t getting bites.

Instead of solving the problem, the people in charge are trying to cover the problem up just long enough to win reelection. Don’t be fooled by the Biden administration’s upcoming weekend-at-Bernie’s act — the CHIPS Act is dead.
