Month: April 2025

What many older Americans have undoubtedly perceived as a decades-long cultural retreat from Christianity now feels like a modern revival.

In a clip posted Tuesday to the social media platform X, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy received enthusiastic and prolonged applause from midshipmen at the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy when he insisted that a painting of Jesus Christ, relegated to the basement by officials in former President Joe Biden’s administration, must return to its former place of honor.

“Let’s bring Him up!” Duffy thundered.

One could barely hear the secretary’s words over the audience’s raucous cheers.

The full clip, which had more than 607,000 views on X as of Friday morning, even provided some important context.

Early in the clip, Duffy pledged to fight so that the academy received the “respect and the money that this academy deserves.”

Of course, everyone likes respect and money, so that comment brought the applause one would expect.

Those cheers, however, paled in comparison to what followed when Duffy mentioned the painting.

“Could we bring Jesus up from the basement?” the secretary asked as he concluded his remarks, looking at someone in the audience.

The midshipmen erupted in cheers, which told Duffy that he had hit upon something important to them.

“Let’s not put Jesus in the basement!” he said, barely audible above the cheers. “Let’s bring Him up!”

Those cheers continued for a full 30 seconds.

“That was the loudest applause we got!” Duffy said.

Midshipmen at the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy erupted in applause when @SecDuffy demanded a painting of Jesus saving merchant mariners be restored.

The Biden admin put a curtain over the painting before putting it in a flood-prone basement.

According to The Christian Post, the Biden administration relegated the 1947 painting, “Christ on the Water,” to a flood-prone basement “following following a 2023 letter from Mikey Weinstein, founder of the Military Religious Freedom Foundation, who issued a ‘demand’ to … ‘expeditiously remove a massive, sectarian painting illustrating the supremacy of Jesus Christ.’”

Weinstein has spent years making similar demands to other military academies and installations over Christian-themed objects.

Multiple midshipmen, speaking on condition of anonymity, praised Duffy for making that very public, painting-related demand.

“I remember many times when I used to pray underneath that painting when I was on the verge of failing a class, or I had big tests or I was worried about something,” one midshipman said. “I’ve prayed underneath that painting when it used to be in Wiley Hall. So to me, it’s a very significant, important painting, and I think it’s an important part of the school’s history.”

Meanwhile, another midshipman described the painting in similar terms while adding a larger context.

“[P]eople would look up to that painting and say, ‘Everything’s going to be all right. Jesus is looking after me, just like He’s looking after these sailors who are washed up on a boat somewhere in the middle of the ocean,’” the second midshipman said.

“I think everyone was on their feet for the Jesus painting and clapping,” he added. “I thought, ‘Finally, the fight is somewhat close to over.’”

Transportation Sec. Sean Duffy promised to restore a painting of Jesus that had been displayed for generations at the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy. The painting was removed in 2023 after godless atheists complained. https://t.co/2oX0tj8DUR Thank you @SeanDuffyWI pic.twitter.com/MzZWfLcoG5

That word — “finally” — undoubtedly hit home for many readers.

After all, the woke elite’s war on Christianity suffered a major setback when President Donald Trump returned to the White House.

Furthermore, that relentless and tyrannical assault helped bring other prominent figures to Jesus.

Indeed, those with eyes to see and ears to hear have observed many signs of Christian revival in recent years.

Thus, kudos to Duffy for allowing those midshipmen to voice their love of Jesus and thereby provide us with one more stirring piece of evidence that God’s work in modern America continues.

War Room’s Steve Bannon with Judicial Watch’s Tom Fitton 4/12/25

War Room’s Steve Bannon talked with Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton on Saturday. They discussed the corruption of the deep state, including at the FBI. Fitton explained that President Trump almost went to jail during his own administration.

“The FBI and the DOJ came that close, within a micro millimeter, of jailing President Trump, and not just me and Navarro. I’m talking about others, but jailing President Trump for 20 or 30 years for nothing, totally made up,” Bannon said.

“We need immediately, a special counsel designated by the President, to report to the President as the Chief Magistrate and Chief Law Enforcement officer,” Bannon continued.

Bannon explained that Fitton’s tireless efforts had restrained the Obama administration’s already out-of-control overreach.

“Tom Fitton has been in these trenches for 15 plus years. If it was not for Tom Fitton, the Obama administration would have been 10 times more out-of-control than it was,” Bannon said.

“A country has got to get control of the border. The people have got to get control of the border in order to have a country that you can actually call a nation-state. You also need to get control of the administrative state,” Fitton explained.

“Political control of the administrative state has got to be job number one, two or three for President Trump, and he has made significant strides there,” Fitton said.

Fitton also explained that agencies like the FBI and DOJ do not have the kind of accountability that is needed when it comes to budget and lawfare. He explained that an agency like DOGE could hold them accountable for budgets.

“Let’s stop pretending that the FBI is controllable in terms of budget and size. Let’s stop pretending DOJ is controllable in terms of budget and size. So, there needs to be a., a DOGE approach to both agencies and there needs to be an approach treating them like Department of Education and DOGE,” Fitton said.

Fitton also explained to Bannon the importance of holding accountable those people in these agencies that have waged lawfare against their political enemies.

“In terms of the lawfare, there has got to be accountability for it,” Fitton said.

“Remember, Trump was almost jailed during the Trump administration,” Fitton said.

“It’s a question of are these agencies subject to the rule of law? There is no evidence the FBI thinks it is subjected to the rule of law,” Fitton warned.

Mel Gibson’s appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience and their discussion about a potential miracle cancer drug grabbed the attention of people across the globe.

According to the Economic Times,

In a candid conversation on comedian Joe Rogan’s podcast, the Braveheart star revealed that two of his close friends, who had been battling stage 4 cancer, experienced remarkable recoveries after using ivermectin and fenbendazole—drugs commonly employed to treat parasitic infections like roundworms and threadworms. 

Gibson went on to make a bold statement, claiming that all three friends who tried these medications “don’t have cancer right now.” He emphatically added, “This stuff works, man.” While these claims have sparked interest, experts urge caution, as scientific evidence supporting the use of these drugs for cancer treatment remains in its infancy.

Some preliminary studies hint at potential benefits. For instance, ivermectin, when combined with other therapies, has been found to shrink tumors in early research, though such findings are yet to be validated by larger clinical trials. Similarly, fenbendazole—marketed under brand names such as Panacur and Safe-Guard—has shown promise in laboratory studies by halting the growth of certain aggressive cancer cells.

Watch:

While studies are scarce, ivermectin and mebendazole (the FDA-approved version of fenbendazole) have long shown that they are highly effective in treating parasites.

You can get compounded Ivermectin + Mebendazole TODAY – and that’s where The Wellness Company comes in!

Ivermectin and Mebendazole combine dual-action forces to effectively and quickly treat parasitic infections.

Medication You Can Trust from a Trusted Source

The medical experts at The Wellness Company – like Dr. Peter McCullough and Dr. Kelly Victory – were leaders in the efforts to provide the public with accurate medical information during COVID. These experts have repeatedly shown that they prioritized the health and welfare of their patients over the bottom line of the big pharmaceutical companies.

MYTHS & FACTS

Not surprisingly, big pharma is doing everything they can to demonize Ivermectin (just like they did during COVID) and Mebendazole. Here are the truths:

Ivermectin is not a horse paste. Ivermectin has won the Nobel Prize for parasitic eradication in humans and is widely used in mammals.

Mebendazole is for human use.Just like with Ivermectin, the biopharmaceutical complex has attempted to scare people in believing the Mebendazole isn’t safe for human use – that is absolutely not true. While Fenbendazole is only approved for pets and livestock, the FDA has approved Mebendazole for human use.

What Cancer Experts are Saying

The use of Ivermectin and Mebendazole is being advocated by global cancer experts like Dr. William Makis. Dr. Makis, who is one of the most influential cancer experts and medical freedom fighter, routinely treats cancer patients with Ivermectin and Mebendazole. Indeed, Dr. Makis’ Substack is chock full of success stories directly attributed to this combination!

Weezer bass player Scott Shriner’s wife, Jillian Shriner, fired at police before being shot by a Los Angeles Police Department officer on Tuesday, the department has confirmed.

Shriner has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder of a peace officer.

Shriner, 51, is a former prostitute-turned-author who wrote about her time in the harem of the Prince of Brunei.

The LAPD was tracking an unrelated hit-and-run suspect through a backyard when they spotted Shriner in a neighboring yard armed with a handgun.

In a press release, the LAPD said, “As the officers were in the rear yard of that residence, they observed a female, later identified as 51-year-old Jillian Shriner, in the yard of a neighboring residence armed with a handgun. The officers ordered Shriner to drop the handgun numerous times; however, she refused. Shriner then pointed the handgun at the officers, and an Officer-Involved Shooting occurred.”

“Shriner was struck by gunfire and fled into her residence. She later exited and was taken into custody,” the press release continued. “Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics transported Shriner to a local hospital, where she was treated for a non-life threatening gunshot wound.”

In a subsequent press release, the LAPD confirmed that Shriner had actually fired her weapon at the police.

“Our investigation revealed evidence such as a shell casing and video footage showing she repeatedly ignored police commands to disarm and that she fired her weapon at LAPD officers. She was subsequently booked for attempted murder of a peace officer.”

No officers or other civilians were injured during the incident.

Shriner was released on Wednesday on a $1 million bond. She is scheduled to return to court on April 30.

Weezer is scheduled to perform at the Coachella Music Festival on Saturday. NBC News reports that the band still intends to perform.

The law firm Susman Godfrey LLP—the same firm that secured a staggering $787.5 million defamation settlement from Fox News on behalf of Dominion Voting Systems—is now suing President Trump and nearly every major federal agency in a brazen effort to overturn a recent executive order targeting the firm for its politicized legal activism.

Susman Godfrey, a Houston-based firm of leftist legal elites, filed a 66-page lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, hysterically claiming that President Trump’s Executive Order targeting their firm is an unconstitutional “retaliation” for their work defending the “integrity” of the 2020 election.

The complaint alleges violations of the First and Fifth Amendments, as well as separation-of-powers principles.

“The President is abusing the powers of his office to wield the might of the Executive Branch in retaliation against organizations and people that he dislikes,” according to the filing.

“Nothing in our Constitution or laws grants a President such power; to the contrary, the specific provisions and overall design of our Constitution were adopted in large measure to ensure that presidents cannot exercise arbitrary, absolute power in the way that the President seeks to do in these Executive Orders.”

More on the filing reviewed by The Gateway Pundit:

The Executive Order makes no secret of its unconstitutional retaliatory and discriminatory intent to punish Susman Godfrey for its work defending the integrity of the 2020 presidential election.

[…]

The President is engaged in an unprecedented and unconstitutional assault on those bedrock principles and on the independent bar. In recent weeks, the President has issued multiple executive orders targeting law firms and their employees in an express campaign of retaliation for representing clients and causes he disfavors or employing lawyers he dislikes.

Those orders are so obviously unconstitutional that the firms that have challenged them have immediately and uniformly received judicial orders acknowledging their probable unconstitutionality and barring their enforcement.

On Wednesday, President Trump signed a sweeping executive order launching a federal investigation and crackdown on the law firm Susman Godfrey LLP

The new directive orders the Department of Justice, the Office of Management and Budget, and intelligence agencies to immediately initiate a full-scale investigation into Susman Godfrey, citing a pattern of “egregious conduct, racial discrimination, and weaponization of the legal system” against political opponents and the American public.

The 6-section executive order makes clear that Susman Godfrey is no longer welcome in the halls of power:

Section 1 denounces the firm for pushing radical “diversity, equity, and inclusion” policies — including programs that offer jobs and scholarships based solely on race — and declares these practices “un-American and unlawful.”

Section 2 calls for the suspension of security clearances held by Susman employees and ends the firm’s access to government resources and classified spaces.

Section 3 orders a freeze and review of all federal contracts involving Susman or its affiliates, urging agencies to cancel deals where possible.

Section 4 ties the move to broader efforts to dismantle race-based hiring practices in federal contracting and lawfare against conservatives.

Section 5 prohibits Susman personnel from entering federal buildings or being hired by the U.S. government without high-level waivers.

Section 6 underscores that this order must be interpreted in a way that defends American national security and respects existing law.

While China has had a rough week in the markets trying to cope with what Viktor Orbán called ‘the Trump tornado’, now Beijing has a more literal storm to deal with.

Chinese state media is now urging people weighing less than 110lb to stay at home to shelter from the extreme winds expected this weekend.

Daily Mail reported:

“Typhoon-like gales are expected to sweep through northern China from Friday to Sunday, with Beijing postponing major sporting events, closing parks, suspending dozens of train services.

The region’s 22 million residents have been warned against non-essential travel, while those weighing less than 110lbs have been told they could be ‘easily blown away’.”

Thin people and children are in dangers of being carried away.

Flights have been cancelled due to ‘Mongolian gusts’ of up to 93mph across northern China.

The strong gales carrying sand and dust forced Beijing to issue an orange (second strongest) gale alert for the first time in 10 years.

“Temperatures in the capital were set to fall by 12 degrees Celsius on Saturday, and meteorologists warned that wind speeds could rival or exceed April records dating back to 1951.”

Chinese marathon to mix robots and humans is postponed.

A Beijing marathon previously scheduled for tomorrow (13) in which humanoid robots will race alongside humans has been postponed by a week.

“Natural disasters in China caused direct economic losses of 9.3 billion yuan ($1.27 billion) in the first two months of 2025, according to the Ministry of Emergency Management.”

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has announced plans to phase out animal testing requirements, starting with monoclonal antibodies and expanding to other drugs.

The initiative is being led by newly appointed FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary.

The NIH should be doing a long-term study of natural immunity instead of torturing thousands of beagle puppies, including cutting their voice box to avoid barking sounds (sick). All taxpayer funded. All our health agencies need fresh new leadership. https://t.co/KCG6lF0Put

— Marty Makary MD, MPH (@MartyMakary) October 27, 2021

Makary is a longtime supporter of the White Coat Waste Project (WCW), a taxpayer watchdog group that has championed ending the agency’s reliance on animal experiments.

Puppy Beagles and other dogs are not ours to abuse in barbaric medical experiments.

Thank you @NancyMace for leading a broadly bipartisan bill to ban NIH research that mistreats dogs. Agree it’s “outdated, unnecessary, and cruel” https://t.co/9KiTNucXCc

— Marty Makary MD, MPH (@MartyMakary) December 11, 2022

In a press release about the shift, the FDA said:

Today, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is taking a groundbreaking step to advance public health by replacing animal testing in the development of monoclonal antibody therapies and other drugs with more effective, human-relevant methods. The new approach is designed to improve drug safety and accelerate the evaluation process, while reducing animal experimentation, lowering research and development (R&D) costs, and ultimately, drug prices.

“For too long, drug manufacturers have performed additional animal testing of drugs that have data in broad human use internationally. This initiative marks a paradigm shift in drug evaluation and holds promise to accelerate cures and meaningful treatments for Americans while reducing animal use,” said FDA Commissioner Martin A. Makary, M.D., M.P.H. “By leveraging AI-based computational modeling, human organ model-based lab testing, and real-world human data, we can get safer treatments to patients faster and more reliably, while also reducing R&D costs and drug prices. It is a win-win for public health and ethics.”

The changes mark a significant policy shift, replacing outdated animal testing mandates with advanced, human-relevant methods like computational models.

Vanda Pharmaceuticals has been working with WCW to fight the FDA’s outdated animal testing mandates.

For every new drug the FDA demands routine lethal toxicity “studies” in 4-month-old beagle dogs with no evidence of any predictive value for humans. This brutal FDA requirement should be replaced by available modern highly predictive human relevant methods and put an end to the…

Sen. Rand Paul had also previously worked with WCW on bipartisan legislation to end animal testing mandates within the FDA.

— Senator Rand Paul (@SenRandPaul) July 20, 2022

“This is a win-win for ethics and public health,” Dr. Makary stated in a post on X, emphasizing that the plan will streamline drug development while reducing the use of animals in labs.

The initiative builds on efforts from the first Trump administration, which WCW credits for laying the groundwork through policies that cut FDA animal testing and prioritized lab animal welfare.

Anthony Bellotti, WCW’s President and Founder, praised Makary’s policy in a statement provided to The Gateway Pundit, saying:

“For years, White Coat Waste has been leading campaigns to cut FDA’s in-house animal testing and red tape that forces federal agencies and companies to waste money and time poisoning puppies and other animals in cruel and unnecessary drug tests. Following WCW efforts, Trump 45’s FDA canceled nicotine addiction tests on primates and for the first time ever sent the survivors to a sanctuary, enacted an agency-wide lab animal retirement policy, and launched an initiative to cut dog testing. We applaud Commissioner Makary for picking up where Trump left off and prioritizing efforts to cut wasteful animal tests conducted and required by the FDA.”

Under Trump’s first term in 2018, WCW successfully pushed the FDA to end nicotine addiction tests on monkeys, retire the animals to a sanctuary, and establish an agency-wide lab animal retirement policy in 2020. The organization also played a key role in dramatically reducing the FDA’s in-house primate testing, culminating in the closure of its largest monkey lab in 2023.

As The Gateway Pundit reported earlier this week, the Trump administration’s Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) pledged to eliminate animal testing, reinstating a plan originally introduced during President Donald Trump’s first term.

Trump EPA Recommits to Ending Animal Testing, Reversing Biden-Era Policy

This decision comes after taxpayer watchdog White Coat Waste Project (WCW) exposed the Biden administration’s cancellation of the earlier initiative, which aimed to phase out testing on mammals by 2035.

Under the leadership of newly appointed Administrator Lee Zeldin, the EPA will now revive and enforce the phase-out.

After years of stonewalling, spin, and subversion of truth, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, under the leadership of Director Kash Patel, has finally placed Deep State operative Brian Auten on administrative leave.

Sources familiar with the matter told the New York Times that Auten was placed on administrative leave last week.

BREAKING: Kash Patel has suspended and removed from HQ C.I. the FBI analyst Brian Auten who rubber-stamped the fake dossier to frame and spy on Trump adviser as a “Russian agent” & who later discounted Hunter Biden laptop evidence as Russian disinformationhttps://t.co/rTk4TNfKug

— Paul Sperry (@paulsperry_) April 12, 2025

Auten’s suspension comes after years of public outcry over his corrupt misconduct inside the Bureau, which turned the FBI into an arm of the Democrat Party.

He was a key player in Crossfire Hurricane, the FBI’s scandalous counterintelligence investigation based on the now-discredited Steele Dossier.

According to the DOJ Inspector General, Auten failed to alert FBI leadership about gaping holes and fabrications in the dossier, yet still aggressively pushed for illegal FISA warrants on Trump campaign adviser Carter Page.

Let’s be clear: this was the FBI spying on a presidential campaign based on false evidence — and Brian Auten was in the thick of it.

But Auten didn’t stop at attacking Trump. In 2020, just weeks before the election, whistleblowers allege that Auten authored an internal FBI report that falsely labeled damning information about Hunter Biden as “Russian disinformation.”

That report effectively shut down the FBI’s investigation into the Biden family’s foreign business dealings — conveniently just in time to protect Joe Biden’s presidential campaign.

Auten’s fingerprints were reportedly all over both cases — despite being under internal investigation for misconduct related to the FISA abuse during the Russia probe. Instead of being removed or disciplined, he was allowed to continue shaping politically explosive investigations under dirty FBI Director Chris Wray.

Auten’s fingerprints are also on the FBI’s unprecedented raid on President Trump’s home, another blatant abuse of power targeting the Biden administration’s chief political opponent.

More from the NY Times:

Mr. Patel has called the Russia investigation a hoax, and singled out Mr. Auten in his book, “Government Gangsters.” In the book, Mr. Patel claimed that the F.B.I. was trying to “hide and spin” what he called “the Biden family corruption” buried in the laptop, even as agents investigated the matter.

“Government Gangsters” also included a list of 60 names in an appendix called “Members of the Executive Branch Deep State.”

Mr. Auten was among the names listed in the appendix. At his confirmation hearing, Mr. Patel denied that it was an enemies list.

“It’s a total mischaracterization,” he told senators. He later added: “There will be no politicization at the F.B.I. There will be no retributive actions taken by any F.B.I., should I be confirmed as F.B.I. director.”

The suspension of Mr. Auten came after he and others had been disciplined for serious mistakes found in the F.B.I.’s applications for a secret surveillance warrant involving a former Trump campaign adviser.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) arrested 25-year-old Aliakbar Mohammed Amin in Georgia for making direct threats against President Donald Trump, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, and the White House.

Amin was taken into custody in Lilburn, a suburb of Atlanta, where FBI agents reportedly confiscated a firearm during the arrest, according to Daily Wire.

The FBI’s Atlanta field office announced the arrest via social media, stating: “Bottom line, the FBI does not tolerate threats and will hold offenders fully accountable.”

Details regarding the nature of Amin’s threats remain undisclosed, and it is unclear what specific charges he will face. The FBI has indicated that more information will be released on Monday.

Deputy Chief of Staff to Gabbard, Alexa Henning, called out CNN, which shamelessly endangered Gabbard’s life just days before Amin’s arrest.

“I told @CNN that @TulsiGabbard had credible, active threats against her and her family and they went ahead and doxxed her address anyway.”

The arrest of Amin came just hours after another threat was neutralized in Pennsylvania, where Shawn Monper, a self-described Satanist who posted under the handle “Mr Satan,” was arrested for openly stating his intent to assassinate President Trump on YouTube.

Monper lived in Butler, Pennsylvania—the same town where Trump barely survived an assassination attempt during a rally last summer.
