The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department and Black Police Association conducted active shooter preparedness training in several churches and other places of worship in the Las Vegas area.

In a statement to the press, the LVMPD shared that its training is in response to a major need for better safety measures in places of worship.

Bill Carpenter, a minister at Land of God Church, told Fox 5 Vegas, “We just want to be prepared and learn what we can, what the training is about, and if we need to make improvements to security, then maybe take that to our church and implement it.”

“Every one of us can learn the signs of what to look for or have seen it in people with mental issues, etc., that they might be bringing it up or talking about doing something,” added Carpenter.

The training consists of learning tactics such as how to escape a mass shooting, where to run, and how to fight if necessary.

Per Fox 5 Vegas:

On Saturday, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department and the Black Police Association partnered with valley places of worship for an active shooter preparedness training.

“We just want to be prepared and learn what we can, what the training’s about, and if we need to make improvements to security, then maybe take that to our church and implement it,” said Bill Carpenter, minister at Land of God Church.

“Because it’s better to have this kind of training, and we’re hopeful that we need to use it, than to actually need it and not have ever taken advantage of the training that was available,” said Michael Jackson, pastor at Tabernacle of Praise Church.

Metro says the training is in response to a critical need for increased safety measures in public and private sectors, including places of worship.

“We want to try and bridge that gap, and we want to try to bring awareness to the community,” said Detective Adrian Hunt, Black Police Association Nevada Chapter president.

With an uptick in church shootings in recent years, many churches are conducting “Christian Warrior Training” to prevent mass shootings during worship services.

Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-CA)  has made a bold claim about Joe Biden’s presidential powers.

Following a ruling from the Supreme Court that President Donald Trump does have immunity from prosecution over supposed crimes he committed in office, Lofgren took to MSNBC’s Deadline with Nicolle Wallace to argue that Joe Biden could “theoretically” order the military to take out conservative Supreme Court justices.

She explained:

He’s been very open about what he intends to do, and that’s retribution. He himself said last December he intends to terminate parts of the Constitution. He didn’t say which parts, but apparently, the Court is going to give him a wide range to terminate whatever he wants. You know, he summoned a mob to Washington knowing they were armed. He sent them to the Capitol to try to prevent the peaceful transfer of power.

If that’s OK, we’ve got a problem in this country. And certainly, in the debate the other night, he would not commit to accepting the election results this November unless he won. So we’ve got a problem here. If he cannot be accountable to — any president, any president cannot be held accountable under the laws that exist — that’s a complete departure from our history.

I guess, you know, theoretically, President Biden, acting within the scope of his official duties, could dispatch the military to take out the conservative justices on the Court, and he’d be immune. Think so?

MSNBC legal analyst Andrew Weissmann appeared to agree with her assessment:

All these things the congresswoman is saying could be done, which is … Joe Biden could go ahead and prosecute somebody like Donald Trump with no evidence — that’s OK. Could order somebody to be killed — that’s OK. Could go ahead and prosecute Justice Thomas for tax evasion or for bribery based on the facts that we know with respect to Harlan Crow?

All of that seems to be on the table, which is horrendous and the reason it’s not going to happen for Joe Biden is because he’s decent and he wouldn’t do it. But that’s not how our country’s supposed to be working on checks and balances. This takes away an enormous check on the most powerful position in the free world.

Lofgren and Weissmann are not the only ones floating the possibility of political assassinations.

Social media influencer and Biden megafan Harry Sisson suggested that Biden now had the power to kill both the Supreme Court justices and Donald Trump himself.

“According to the Supreme Court, Biden could now send in Seal Team 6 to take all of them out,” he wrote on the X platform. “He could send in the military to take out Trump. He has ‘immunity’ for official acts now!”

According to the Supreme Court, Biden could now send in Seal Team 6 to take all of them out. He could send in the military to take out Trump. He has “immunity” for official acts now!

Biden, meanwhile, issued a statement claiming that the ruling will allow Trump to become America’s first dictator.

“Since January 6, Trump has only grown more unhinged. He’s promising to be a dictator ‘on day one,’ calling for our Constitution to be ‘terminated’ so he can regain power, and promising a ‘bloodbath’ if he loses,” the statement read.

“The American people already rejected Donald Trump’s self-obsessed quest for power once – Joe Biden will make sure they reject if for good in November,” he continued.

A new survey from Bankrate reveals the sad truth about how Americans feel drowning in Joe Biden’s economy.

According to the survey, Americans feel they need to earn at least $186,000 per year to feel secure in an economy hammered by high interest rates, low homeownership, rising rent and home costs, and rising consumer costs like food and gas.

Unfortunately, for the vast majority of the population, only 6% of U.S. adults actually reach at least that threshold.

Federal data shows the median family income is between $51,500 and $86,000, less than half of what those polled said is needed to feel secure.

And, according to a previous Bankrate poll, Americans aren’t looking to live lavishly.  They are simply hoping to live comfortably and unburdened by financial worries.

While Americans suffer, the Biden administration continues its relentless efforts to gaslight Americans on how his disastrous policing is ruining the country and putting the American Dream out of reach for the majority of people.

Biden and his mouthpieces continue to lie and say inflation was 9% when he took office in January 2021.

It was 1.4% in January 2021.

Biden’s lie was so egregious that even the Washington Post gave him four Pinocchio’s.

A recent research paper by four noted economists, including Larry Summers, the former Treasury Secretary under Barack Obama and former Harvard President, discovered that the real inflation rate during the Biden years, using pre-1983 calculations, reached 18% in 2022.

The number is the highest inflation rate the country has seen in over 50 years.

In the first quarter of 2024, the GDP dropped faster than expected. Real GDP increased 1.6% after rising 3.7% in the fourth quarter of 2023 based on government spending.

Meanwhile, inflation rose to 3.7% in the first quarter – squeezing consumers who are already strapped in the Biden economy.

A recent study found that half of renters in America cannot afford housing.

While the data from the study is from 2022, not much has changed since then in terms of the economy or the amount of available housing.

From CBS News:

Many inflation-weary consumers continue to experience financial stress, with a new Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia survey finding that 35% of Americans are worried about making ends meet, up from 29% a year earlier.

That gap between what the typical American earns and what they aspire to earn means “Americans have their eyes set on this high income, and they think they need to make more money even if they know it’s unrealistic they’ll never make that amount,” Sarah Foster, an analyst at Bankrate, told CBS MoneyWatch.

During remarks in Australia, Tucker Carlson made a haunting and heartbreaking observation about the impact of the economy on our society and on the next generation.

“The birthrate tells the whole story…they are not at replacement rate.  And the U.S. population is growing because we are importing people from other countries.”

“And my view is that happy people have children. And a functioning economy allows them to do that. And we don’t have that. And so you need to fix the economy and fix the culture and make it so that people who want to have kids can.”

“You don’t go for the quick sugar fix of importing new people. That’s my position.”

“Americans aren’t having kids because they can’t afford to. And nobody in charge cares.

Jamie Foxx has finally broken his silence about a terrifying near-death experience that kept him hospitalized for 20 days last year. The 56-year-old actor shared more details about the mystery illness that landed him in the hospital in April.

Jamie Foxx has been at the center of speculation regarding his health after reports emerged claiming he had a blood clot in his brain allegedly caused by the experimental COVID-19 vaccine.

According to the details given by Hollywood journalist A.J. Benza, Foxx allegedly suffered partial paralysis and blindness, among other complications, following his vaccine administration.

“Jamie had a blood clot in his brain after he got the shot. He did not want the shot, but the movie he was on, he was pressured to get it,” said Benza during an interview with Dr. Drew.

Foxx’s health scare initially came to light during a film shoot with Cameron Diaz last year, where he was hospitalized due to a serious condition.

Many suggested the actor suffered a stroke, further fueled by Foxx’s stint in a Chicago facility specializing in stroke recovery.

Mike Tyson confirmed these speculations in a podcast interview with Patrick Bet-David, Tyson stated Foxx “isn’t feeling well.”

The former heavyweight champion continued, “They said he (Foxx) had a stroke. I have no idea what happened to him.”

In a video shared on X, Foxx can be seen discussing his health scare with a group of people at an outdoor café in Phoenix, People reported.

“Look, April 11th last year,” Foxx begins, “Bad headache. I asked my boy for an Advil.” He snaps his fingers to illustrate how quickly things escalated. “I was gone for 20 days,” he continues, “I don’t remember anything.”

Foxx reveals that he was in Atlanta at the time of the incident. His sister, Deidra Dixon, and daughter, Corinne Foxx, took him to see the first doctor. “They gave me a cortisone shot,” he tells the woman sitting next to him.

“The next doctor said something’s going on up there,” Foxx added, pointing to his head. The actor chose not to disclose further details on camera about what exactly his diagnosis was, which elicited laughter from those around him.

For months, we have been hearing how Ukraine is ‘soon’ to receive f-16 planes from the West, in a bid to rebuild its decimated Air Force.

In the meantime, Russian Federation forces are repeatedly targeting the main air fields and extending the destruction list of fighter jets that’s almost at 100 planes since the start of the war.

The Mirgorod air base, located 100 miles from the frontline  in the Poltava region, suffered multiple attacks in the month of June – and the attacks are getting ever more destructive.

Yesterday, a Russian Orlan surveillance drone was surveilling the Mirgorod air base, and spotted ‘at least six’ Ukrainian Su-27 supersonic fighters parked in the open at the base in broad daylight.

A Russian Iskander missile attack followed. Iskander operational-tactical missile system was initiated to strike the Ukrainian Mirgorod airfield.

Ukrainians say two of the planes were destroyed, and the other four were damaged. The Russian Ministry of Defense states that five operational Su-27 multirole fighters were destroyed, and two under repair were damaged.

Forbes reported:

“It may have been one of the costliest single days for the battered Ukrainian air arm since Russia widened its war on Ukraine in February 2022. ‘There are some losses’, air force official Yuriy Ignat acknowledged.”

Ukrainian bloggers and social media users were quick to blame air force officers for deciding to park their jets out in the open, especially in a base so close to the front line.

“The raid on Mirgorod is just the latest in a series of Russian strikes on vulnerable Ukrainian air bases. In recent months, Russian Lancet drones have struck at least four Ukrainian jets at Dolgintsevo air base near Kryvyi Rih, just 45 miles from the front line in southern Ukraine.”

The Su-27s at Mirgorod increase the number of Ukrainian warplanes blown up on the ground – losses the ailing Ukrainian air force may not recover from.

“The Ukrainian air force went to war in February 2022 with around 125 Su-27s, Su-25s, MiG-29s and other jets. In 28 months of hard fighting, the Ukrainians have lost around 90 jets that the analysts at Oryx have confirmed.

To make good their losses, the Ukrainians have acquired from their allies, or restored from long-term storage, scores of replacement MiGs and Sukhois. These airframes are keeping the air force in action until ex-European fighters—85 Lockheed Martin F-16s and perhaps a dozen Dassault Mirage 2000s—arrive in Ukraine.”

This is just stupid

Russian Forces, using a Cluster Missile and a Iskander-M SRBM, managed to destroyed 2x UkrAF SU-27/(UB?), and damage 4 other SU-27s, which were all parked in the open at Mirgorod Airbase

I have no words, whoever is in charge of the base, needs to get fired pic.twitter.com/pvZRRqdbyV

— WarVehicleTracker (@WarVehicle) July 1, 2024

F-16s and Mirages will also be vulnerable unless steps are taken to protect them. To pull operational jets away from Russian territory would be a start.

“Ukrainian forces have access to around 20 large air bases, dozens of smaller airfields and even highway airstrips scattered across the country. Every single Ukrainian jet type ranges hundreds of miles on internal fuel. There’s no reason for an Su-27 that ranges 700 miles to spend any time at an airfield a hundred miles from the front line.”

Of course, Russians have missiles that can strike across Ukraine all the way to Lvov in the border with Poland.

Ukrainians must move quickly in their countermeasures, or face destruction.

BBC presenter David Aaronovitch

BBC presenter David Aaronovitch sparked outrage on Monday after he called for the murder of President Donald Trump on Twitter-X.

Aaronovitch, who has since deleted his call for murder from X, called on Joe Biden to “Hurry Up” and “have Trump murdered.”

Don’t forget, it is the left that ALWAYS attacks the right for being violent and dangerous. And it is ALWAYS projection.

David Aaronovitch defended his call for murder before he deleted his tweets.

Aaronovitch is a presenter of BBC Radio’s 4’s Briefing Room.

David Aaronovitch was reportedly raised by atheists whose “faith was Marxism.”

The Express reported:

A top BBC presenter has sparked fury today after tweeting that President Joe Biden should have Donald Trump ‘murdered.’

David Aaronovitch, who presents Radio 4’s Briefing Room show, took to X/Twitter shortly after 5 pm and said: “If I was Biden I’d hurry up and have Trump murdered on the basis that he is a threat to America’s security #SCOTUS.”

The hashtag suggests his wild opinion was sparked by the ruling from the Supreme Court today, which ruled that former presidents have absolute immunity from prosecution for their official acts.

The post from Mr Aaronovitch sparked instant backlash from those who saw it, with many pointing out an egregious breach of the corporation’s rules around employee impartiality.

Responding to journalist Jack Montgomery who accused him of “Trump derangement syndrome”, Mr Aaronovitch doubled down and lashed out, replying: “Did you see the Supreme Court ruling Jack? Or were you too busy with your head up Nigel Farage’s derriere?”

…An hour after posting the tweet, he told one critic that the post was “satirical and based on today’s 6-3 ruling on presidential immunity.”

Mr Aaronovitch finally deleted the post after around 90 minutes, tweeting: “There is now a far right pile-on suggesting that my tweet about the Supreme Court’s ruling on presidential immunity is an incitement to violence when it’s plainly a satire.

Lt. Col Larry Brock, USAF-ret’d and his A-10 Warthog that he piloted.

 

This week on Blessed.News “Inside J6″ retired US Air Force Lieutenant Colonel Larry Brock joined us to discuss his experiences before, during, and after the persecution of January 6th protesters.

Lt. Col. Brock, in full dress uniform, addressed his fellow Americans on the X platform and gave thanks to the opportunity to serve his country.  In his heartfelt speech, he gave thanks to God and his fellow Americans who prayed for him.  He would go on to address a weaponized bureaucracy that is infringing on our basic rights.  And a court system that is allowing it to happen unchecked.

Brock called for people to reach out to their Congressmen and Senators and demand that they “live up to the gospel they profess to believe.”  He called for them to use the full force of the legislature to “set at liberty those oppressed.”

During the interview, Lt. Col. Brock would talk about what he went through in the prison system and some questionable arrangements that were made, especially given his history as an A-10 Warthog pilot who flew combat sorties over both Afghanistan and Iraq.

His message is incredibly uplifting, despite the hardships he’s endured at the hands of a government he once fought for.

Coincidentally, during the news portion of Inside J6, we discussed the Gateway Pundit’s reporting on recent developments in the House with Speaker Johnson taking a vote among the Bipartisan Legal Advisory Group, or the BLAG, to hold the sham J6 Committee as “illegitimate”.  The BLAG consists of the Speaker, both party leaderships, and both party whips.  The vote was 3-2 and requires no further action from Congress.

This was big news for Steve Bannon, who is supposed to report to federal prison in Danbury, CT today for a 4-month prison sentence over a congressional subpoena from an illegitimate, improperly convened committee.

We also discussed the series being released by America First Legal (AFL), called the #DeepStateDiaries, that exposes documents obtained after AFL was victorious in disbanding the Deptartment of Homeland Security “Homeland Intelligence Experts Group”.

Former Trump AG Bill Barr laughs out loud at Steve Bannon going to prison. Disgusting.

On Monday, former Trump Chief Strategist Steve Bannon reported to prison in Danbury, Connecticut.

The Biden regime jailed the most important MAGA media personality for the four months prior to the 2024 presidential election.

They wanted him out of the way.

This is the definition of election interference.

Later in the day, Neil Cavuto and Bill Barr yucked it up over Bannon’s imprisonment.

Bill Barr got a good laugh out of it. It was truly revolting.

WATCH:



Attorney Jeff Clark called Bill Barr’s disgusting reaction to Steve Bannon’s imprisonment “breathtaking.”

Jeff Clark: “You need to get this clip… Bill Barr yucking it up with Neil Cavuto about Steve Bannon being sent to prison. With Barr saying, ‘Well I’m not losing any sleep over it,’ with a big grin on his face. It’s really remarkable. To think that the former AG is gleeful that someone is going to jail… especially someone who was a top adviser to the President that selected him…is really just breathtaking.”

While no elected Democrats have called on Biden to drop out of the presidential race after his disastrous debate against President Trump last Thursday, NBC News reported overnight that at least four Democratic lawmakers, including one Congressman, have privately told NBC they believe Biden should drop out.

While Democratic lawmakers are all standing by Biden publicly, at least four told NBC News that they privately believe he needs to drop out now — four months before Election Day — to avoid a lopsided defeat for Democrats. https://t.co/ZSd9LCnbjK

Excerpt from the NBC News report:

While Democratic lawmakers are all standing by Biden publicly, at least four told NBC News that they privately believe he needs to drop out now — four months before Election Day — to avoid a lopsided defeat for Democrats.

“It’s a very tough call. But because he will continue to decline, and because if he continues as our nominee we risk some catastrophic event after the convention that prohibits him from continuing as the nominee, he should step aside and allow for a nominating process at the convention in August,” said a Democratic lawmaker, who spoke on condition of anonymity to speak candidly.

Asked whether Biden should gracefully bow out now, a moderate House Democrat replied, “yes,” adding that they still would like to see whether Biden’s approval drops precipitously in new polling after the debate.

Another Democratic lawmaker said colleagues will decide what to publicly say about Biden once they see the impact of the debate on House swing district polls. Democrats need to flip just a handful of seats to flip the House to Democratic control, while they face a tough map to hold on to the Senate.

“That has to be the firewall” against a potential Trump presidency, the lawmaker said.

A USA Today/Suffolk poll released Monday shows that 41 percent of Democrat voters think Biden should drop out (USA Today excerpt):

President Joe Biden’s core support has been shaken by his stumbling performance in last week’s debate, an exclusive USA TODAY/Suffolk University Poll finds, fueling a furor over whether he should continue his candidacy.

More than 4 in 10 Democrats, 41%, said the Democratic Party should replace Biden as its presidential nominee. That included 37% of those who say they plan to vote for him.

“There’s no question the debate sent out shockwaves across the political landscape,” said David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk Political Research Center. “Democrats in the poll are offering tough love to President Biden by saying to him, ‘You’ve served us well, but try to see yourself last Thursday night through our eyes. Hold your head up high, it’s time to go.’”

Biden ignored a reporter who asked if he will drop out of the race after he made brief remarks at the White House Monday night condemning the Supreme Court ruling in favor of President Trump from criminal charges for presidential acts:
