But in fact, it never was. At every point since the invention of the Left/Right spectrum in the fevered, bloodthirsty frenzy of the French Revolution, the Left has been a post-Christian heresy. It's a cargo cult that cherrypicks from the gospels shiny moral sentiments and glittering aspirations, like the work of some mindless magpie. A New Rival Gospel Never mind that Jesus's moral mandates would be literally nonsensical if He was not divine and couldn't offer eternal rewards for self-sacrifice in this life. (Try explaining “Turn the other cheek” to Ghengis Khan and then get back to me; I'd love to hear how that goes. The meek did not inherit the Mongol Empire.) Nor that claims of “equality” among all men only hold up if we mean “in the eyes of God,” since in our own sight we're vastly diverse and manifestly unequal. Even the militantly atheistic, self-styled “scientific” Communist Utopia millions were willing to kill for was cooked up by Karl Marx as a thinly secularized knock-off of the New Jerusalem. Read historian Norman Cohn's authoritative The Pursuit of the Millennium to learn how Marx's program replicated the crackpot claims of self-anointed “prophets” who roused the rabble to murder the priests and pillage the local Jews. But Leftists are born with the same God-shaped hole in their souls as everyone else, so they plunder the Gospel to fill it, picking only the bits and pieces that please them to make a kind of taxidermied replacement Christ fashioned in their own image. These false Christs or antichrists are invariably cast as victims, waved around as banners, and finally used as cudgels … to pummel actual Christians. First the Peasants, Then the Workers The original radical Leftists of the French Revolution held up “the peasants” as the suffering souls for whom they fought — even as the revolutionary government waged a vicious, genocidal war against the real, live peasants of the Vendee region, killing some 300,000 for the crime of clinging to their Church, instead of the fake one the government had set up and imposed on them. A hundred years later, Karl Marx and his movement would claim the international working class as the victims whom they'd champion against the ruthless exploitation of capitalist oppressors. But Marx would fiercely oppose any moderate reforms that would improve workers' real lives, since these might slow down the bloody revolution he needed to impose Communist rule. His followers would fight against any labor unions they couldn't control. Of course, once the Communists seized power in Russia, then other countries, they would enslave the workers and peasants alike, putting them to work in state-owned monopolies, closing their churches, and subjecting them to totalitarian surveillance and persecution. The New Antichrist Idols: “Persecuted” Immigrants The present face of Leftist false religion manifests as a trinity: Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, and its ersatz Christ figure is the immigrant. Marxists and tribalists paint immigrants as victims of climate change, Islamophobia, and dictatorial governments. Cheap labor globalists depict them as rough and ready workers whose ethic is better than the sullen, spoiled American natives ripe for replacement. The media, besotted by their new post-Christian creed, like to select which immigrant stories to tell, the better to paint the Trump administration and its backers as heartless, intolerant, ignorant racist bullies. But Trump's team has been clever, having learned from the debacle of 2017, when their efforts to protect child migrants from human traffickers got painted as “separating families” and “putting kids in cages.” So the administration focused its first removal efforts on gang members, rabid antisemites and jihadists, confident that diversity-happy editors and lawless federal judges wouldn't be able to restrain themselves — but would lionize and try to paint as wounded, hapless puppies the worst immigrants on Earth. Poor, Poor Pitiful Jihadis The Left took the bait. Look at the latest “victims” these apostles of counterfeit Christian compassion have decided to paint as martyrs: The equally radical, equally illegal immigrant relatives of the vicious jihadi who used arson to target a Jewish event to aid Holocaust survivors (one of whom he burned to death), Mohamed Sabry Soliman. Mass media can't help themselves. They're too driven by religious zeal: Of course, the facts of the case fall by the wayside in all this jerry-rigged empathy: Collecting Slaves for Sex Traffickers So the Left will go to the wall for privileged, middle-class, jihadi Muslims who blew through their tourist visas and stayed in our country so their patriarch could incinerate Jews who'd escaped the Nazis. You know who the Left won't talk about? The 300,000 unaccompanied minors smuggled into our country and sent to whoever wanted them, with no vetting or DNA tests for alleged relatives. (Joe Biden abolished that.) How are things going for those migrants, who aren't incinerating American Jews? Gateway Pundit gives us a glimpse: A 37-year-old illegal immigrant, Wilson Manfredo Lopez-Carillo, was arrested in Palm Beach County, Florida, for sexually assaulting a 16-year-old girl placed in his home through the Department of Health and Human Services' (HHS) “Unaccompanied Alien Children” (UAC) program. According to the Daily Wire, the arrest was made on May 22, 2025. According to charging documents from the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office, Lopez-Carillo faces three counts of sexual assault on a minor. The victim, who arrived in the U.S. in August 2023 as an unaccompanied minor, was sent by HHS to live with Lopez-Carillo and others in a loosely vetted household. Police reports detail a horrifying pattern of abuse, with Lopez-Carillo allegedly taking advantage of the girl's isolation to assault her on multiple occasions in February 2024. On one occasion, while the adult woman in the household was out selling tamales to support the family, Lopez-Carillo allegedly grabbed the teen in the kitchen, dragged her to his bedroom, and sexually assaulted her. A second incident followed a similar pattern, with the predator offering the girl $100 to stay silent — an offer she bravely refused. Fearing retribution, the teen initially did not report the assaults, as Lopez-Carillo had threatened her to keep quiet. Go read the rest, if you have the heart. How many more victims are on Joe Biden's catatonic conscience? We won't know on this side of the grave. This is the filth, the exploitation, the mass rape that the Left is happy to invite into our nation in order to pose as defenders of “victims” and rack up names for voter fraud. Once again, the group designated as “victims” get victimized for real by those who pretend to defend them. Leftists haven't just chosen Barabbas. They have tarted him up as Christ.

It is a message increasingly echoed from the nation's pulpits, presented as common-sense decency and virtue. Calls for “radical non-violence” are routinely endowed with the imprimatur of religious doctrine. But what if such teachings were misguided, even damaging? What if the potential of a citizenry to exercise force against violent criminals and tyrannical governments is not just compatible with church teaching, but flows from the very heart of Biblical faith and reason? What if the freedoms we treasure are intimately tied to the power to resist violent coercion? This is the long-overdue case John Zmirak makes with stunning clarity and conviction in No Second Amendment, No First. A Yale-educated journalist and former college professor, Zmirak shows how the right of self-defense against authoritarian government was affirmed in both the Old and New Testaments, is implied in Natural Law, and has been part of Church tradition over the centuries. --------------------------------------------------------------------
This episode comes with content warnings. To be able to accurately describe the level of verbal and physical abuse in this story, it was necessary to include actual accounts that include obscene language, drug usage, and violent acts. The intent of the WHEN DATING HURTS Podcast is never to sensationalize abuse. But there is the need to allow actual survivors to report their stories as they remember them without editing. Abuse is ugly. We want our listeners will learn to be able to detect, avoid, and break free from impending intimate partner violence in any form. This is part one of a two-part story. This story is actually two survivor stories in one. Melody and Lizzie are each survivors of Harry, a toxic serial abuser. What makes what you're about to hear so unique is Melody and Lizzie were married to Harry in succession. One after the other. You will see how an abuser can be methodical. In both cases, the attraction to him at first was quite similar – so were the warning signs, the mounting concerns, the emotional and verbal abuse, and the physical abuse. Of course there were similarities – they were married to the same abuser. Harry merely took what worked in one relationship into the next relationship. We will first hear Melody's story. Then we will move to Lizzie's story. See that if they knew and followed the warning signs, they would have missed a lifetime a misery from this one predatory abuser. Bill Mitchell NOTE: If you are a survivor and want to share your story of abuse on the WHEN DATING HURTS Podcast, please email me: BillMitchell@WhenDatingHurts.com The WHEN DATING HURTS book (in paperback, eBook, and audiobook) can be found on Amazon.

Love can feel like a double-edged sword, cutting deep despite the tender moments. Or is that really love? Caring and kindness mixed with toxic, controlling behaviors create a dangerous emotional cocktail of bonding and trauma.
Ret. FBI Robin Dreeke on the Culture of Fear That Let Sandra Birchmore's Abuser Operate Freely Description: How does a police officer groom a teenager for years—under supervision—and no one says a word? That's the question at the heart of the Sandra Birchmore case. In 2021, Sandra was found dead. Local authorities quickly called it a suicide. But federal prosecutors now allege that Officer Matthew Farwell, who had been intimately involved with Sandra since her teens, actually murdered her to cover up years of exploitation and control. And yet, the most chilling part of this case isn't just the alleged crime—it's how many people saw something and stayed silent. Fellow officers, supervisors, and department leaders looked the other way as red flags piled up. Some resigned. Others let their certifications quietly expire. No one stepped forward. No one sounded the alarm. In this episode, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke explains how fear-based culture within law enforcement agencies enables predators like Farwell. Robin breaks down the psychological pressure points: why officers stay quiet, how loyalty morphs into complicity, and how departments learn to rationalize abusive behavior as just another “gray area.” We also explore the psychology of silence—how fear of losing a job, disrupting status quo, or challenging someone in power keeps people quiet. Robin gives powerful insight into what real accountability looks like, what leadership failure feels like on the inside, and why these kinds of cases don't just happen—they're built over time through neglect, denial, and fear. This isn't just about one department. It's about a culture that exists in too many places—and the consequences it leaves behind. #SandraBirchmore #RobinDreeke #PoliceCulture #CultureOfFear #TrueCrimeInvestigation #FBIBehavioralAnalysis #HiddenKillersPodcast #TonyBrueski #SystemicAbuse #GroomingInLawEnforcement

Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussion of domestic violence, murder-suicide, and police-perpetrated abuse. Please take care while listening.In this powerful and heartbreaking episode, Bruce Bieber joins us to share the story no parent should ever have to tell — the murder of his daughter, Hillsborough County Sheriff's Deputy Abigail Rose Bieber, by her boyfriend and fellow deputy, Daniel Leyden, in an officer-involved domestic violence (OIDV) murder-suicide in January 2022.Abby had planned to end the relationship during a weekend away in St. Augustine. What neither she nor her family knew was that Leyden had a prior domestic violence history — one that was known to the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office but never acted upon meaningfully. When Bruce and his family began asking questions, they were met with silence, deflection, and eventually complete shutdown by HCSO.Bruce shares the gut-wrenching journey from grief to advocacy — his fight to uncover the truth, the betrayal by law enforcement leadership, and his mission to push for mandatory OIDV policies and accountability nationwide.This conversation is not just about Abby. It's about the wider, deeply hidden epidemic of domestic violence committed by those sworn to protect — and the systemic failures that allow it to continue.If you've ever wondered what happens when the abuser wears a badge — this is the episode you need to hear.
What does spiritual warfare look like today in light of the finished work of Christ? Paul told the Corinthians they could eat meat sacrificed to idols, so why does Revelation 2 condemn it? How should we view Israel today given we are the Church (God‘s people)? My friend is making a big deal out of Psalm 82 and what she calls “the divine council of gods.” What is this chapter really about? My husband is narcissistic and financially abusive. Should I leave to try to save the marriage? Why does God talk to the church at Thyatira about destroying children? Who is He talking about?

Four cat deaths recently have re-ignited calls for tougher enforcement against animal abusers. Synopsis: Every second Wednesday of the month, The Straits Times takes a hard look at Singapore's social issues of the day with guests. Just before the crack of dawn in early May, the mutilated carcass of a community cat was discovered on a road in Yishun. In the days that followed, three more cats were reported to have been seriously injured or found dead in housing estates around Singapore, stoking fears of animal abusers at large. While three of the cases have since been attributed to road traffic accidents rather than deliberate acts of cruelty, they have re-ignited calls for tougher enforcement against animal abusers. In this episode, correspondent Ang Qing unpacks the psyche of an animal abuser in Singapore with psychiatrist Lim Boon Leng and criminal lawyer Josephus Tan.

On Sunday, April 7th, 2024 there was a fatal road traffic crash in Churchtown, a suburb in south dublin. It happened early in the morning when a pensioner driving an old red van hit a tree.Unusually, the name of the dead man was not released though The Irish Times was able to report, through confidential information received at the time, that the dead man had been due in court the following day.He had been charged with more than 100 counts of sex abuse offences involving young boys dating back to the 1980s and 90s. His five victims were ready to give evidence but his death denied them any hope of justice.He wasn't named at the time for legal reasons. But we are naming him now, thanks to the bravery of his victims, who since his death just over a year ago have met and given each other support.Neville Kearns lived in suburban Dublin and won the trust of the young teenagers who became his victim.One, who we are calling Chris, came in to studio to tell his story.Irish Times reporter Orla Ryan has talked to three of the men and explains why they chose to name him now and what it means to them.Presented by Bernice Harrison.

Edition No154 | 07-06-2025 - Trump was asked a simple question. One which any man with empathy, leadership qualities, or any human dignity would find simple to answer. His instinct was to reach for a classic rapists' response, or defense. Ukraine was asking for it, he basically said. Trump was asked: Do Ukraine's strikes against Russian airfields change your view of the cards Zelenskyy has? ----------Links: https://kyivindependent.com/operation-spiderweb-gave-putin-a-reason-to-bomb-the-hell-out-of-them-trump-says-following-large-scale-attacks-on-ukrainian-cities/https://kyivindependent.com/russian-attack-on-kharkiv-kill-1-injure-13/https://kyivindependent.com/fires-reported-following-russias-drone-attack-on-kyiv/https://kyivindependent.com/six-people-likely-trapped-under-the-rubble-of-enterprise-hit-by-russia-in-kharkiv/https://kyivindependent.com/zelensky-refutes-trump-comparing-russian-war-to-children-fighting-calls-putin-murderer/----------SUMMER FUNDRAISERSNAFO & Silicon Curtain community - Let's help help 5th SAB together https://www.help99.co/patches/nafo-silicon-curtain-communityWe are teaming up with NAFO 69th Sniffing Brigade to provide 2nd Assault Battalion of 5th SAB with a pickup truck that they need for their missions.

Carson joins me to talk about the open letter he wrote to Lori Anne Thompson a public apology for his role in enabling Ravi Zacharias and failing to see the truth sooner.In this conversation, we explore how powerful individuals often groom their supporters long before they ever groom their victims.

To Align with your Divine within is to Align with your humanity. Essence of our humanity is under attack- not by demons, aliens, or Artificial Intelligence per se, but by self appointed self anointed global leaders who are hellbent on destroying our spirit of humanity. It was my experience as detailed in ACCESS DENIED For Reasons of National Security that these globalist perpeTraitors follow a linear DARPA generated plan. They believe all creation, our planet included, is flawed in its divine design, just as they believe our bodies need their 78+ vaccines to fix ‘genetic flaws'. These dark perpeTraitors feel justified in ‘saving' our planet from their belief the sun is destroying it. DARPA's conclusion inspires believers to play god by cross breeding genetically altered humanity with AI while also actively working to block our sun. The audacity of these power mongers is inconceivable!As my daughter Kelly observed, “Sun is the SOULar battery of all existence on earth.”We need sunlight for optimum mental health and for grounding into our true nature. Our nature is our humanity- who we are intended to be and how life is intended to be lived.To disrupt our essence of humanity, mind control is being used to block our ability to Align with our Divine within, which in turn inhibits access to soul expression, strength of spirit, and our innate energy source of infinite power of love. Without free thought, there is no free will soul expression. No ability to remember who we are and why we are here. No capacity for connecting with each other on energetic, loving levels of compassion, understanding, and unity. United we stand against these perpeTraitors of humanity who mask themselves as gods to lord over our existence.Equally as alarming as discussed by George Bush Sr. at Bohemian Grove in 1985 is that if their New World Order agenda fails, then those playing god will destroy our planet. Wouldn't blocking the sun do that anyway? Semantics aside, the end game of these dark negative energy force perpeTraitors is our demise. When we Align with our Divine within, we have wisdom. Wisdom is our saving grace to outthink criminal minds and AI's linear plan every time. Preservation of free thought is key. Knowledge is our defense against their mind control.Traumatic fear is the basis of all mind control as puppetmasters manipulate humanity's brain defense mechanism against incomprehensible trauma to their advantage. It was found through Hitler/Himmler research that there is no trauma more horrific on the human mind than sexual abuse of a child prior to age 5 while the brain is still forming. Similarly satanic ritual abuse has the same effect of shutting down neuron pathways of conscious thought, leaving the subconscious wide open to being led, manipulated, and programmed to drive future thoughts.Many children, including myself, have experienced trauma beyond comprehension to render us compliant and malleable for controllers' vision of how life should be lived based on their own fears that the world is ending. Our humanity is under attack because our strength of spirit is perpeTraitors' greatest fear. Many children, me included, witnessed other children being sacrificed at their alter of justification. Many victims of traumatic mind control died, which is also in keeping with depopulation agenda to reduce humanity's numbers to a much more manageable size. Abusers have no remorse in their justifications. Yet children who witness and experience the demise of others are left with the same traumatic dilemma that most military veterans experience:Why did I survive when others didn't?Read the full article on Cathy's website Here!

No one likes talking about child sex abuse. But prevention experts say we need to bring pedophilia out of the shadows if we ever want to end abuse. They insist, it is not inevitable. CBC producer John Chipman explores an innovative new program in Kitchener, Ontario, that has sex offenders and abuse survivors working together to prevent future harm and promote healing. *This episode originally aired on Sept. 23, 2024.
By some estimates, some 90% of murders in Mexico go unpunished. But when a woman in Mexico kills an abusive partner, many of them do end up in jail convicted of "excessive use of legitimate force". Mexican singer-songwriter Vivir Quintana started looking into the issue and found compelling, tragic tales. We speak to Quintana about her new album which tells the stories of some of these women.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

In Sean "Diddy" Combs' ongoing federal sex trafficking trial, his legal team is framing his past sexual activities with ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura as part of a consensual "swingers lifestyle." During cross-examination, defense attorneys presented text messages and emails between Combs and Ventura, suggesting she willingly participated in the so-called "freak-offs"—drug-fueled group sex encounters involving male escorts. They argued that Ventura's involvement was voluntary and indicative of mutual consent within an unconventional relationship dynamic.Ventura, however, refuted this portrayal, testifying that she often felt coerced and degraded during these events. She acknowledged the existence of the messages but emphasized that her participation was driven by fear and manipulation, not genuine consent. Ventura described the relationship as controlling and abusive, asserting that Combs used his power and influence to dominate her actions and decisions. The prosecution supports Ventura's claims, alleging that Combs orchestrated these encounters as part of a broader pattern of exploitation and abuse.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Sean ‘Diddy' Combs' lawyers push ‘swingers lifestyle' defense while grilling Cassie Ventura about ‘freak-offs'Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Send us a textThe landscape of power, fame, and accountability collides in our latest episode as we unpack the shocking testimony in Diddy's trial. Cassie's brave recounting of years of abuse doesn't just tell her story – it potentially exposes an entire system of enablers around one of music's most powerful figures. The details are disturbing, from alleged beatings that left her unable to perform to "freak offs" that she described as more job than creative partnership.We shift gears to examine DDG's troubling domestic violence allegations from Halle Bailey, including claims he slammed her head into a steering wheel and weaponized his fanbase against her. What happens when influencer power dynamics spill into co-parenting? And why do these patterns seem so familiar in celebrity relationships?The conversation takes a critical turn as we dissect how "Black fatigue" – originally meaning the exhaustion Black Americans feel from systemic racism – has been twisted by some white Americans to express their own impatience with discussions about race. This linguistic co-opting represents a broader pattern of appropriating and inverting terminology meant to describe marginalized experiences.From examining Netflix's "Forever" and its portrayal of young Black love to questioning the dubious "refugee" status granted to white South African farmers, we're asking the hard questions about how power, race, and media narratives shape our understanding of the world around us.We round out the episode with a surprising geopolitical twist: Trump's acceptance of a $400 million plane from Qatar, a nation he previously condemned as "funders of terrorism." What changed? And what does this suggest about potential conflicts of interest?
In this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, Tammy shares her story about meeting her future husband on Tinder. He quickly pushed Tammy's boundaries, and manipulated her into thinking it was because of life experience and cultural differences. The abuser isolated Tammy from everyone, so when the physical abuse began, she didn't have anyone to turn to because of the shame attached to it. Tammy eventually sought help, obtained an intervention order, and began healing, reflecting on the parallels between her abusive partner and her manipulative mother. It's a story of intimidation, shame, guilt, trauma bonds, gaslighting, manipulation, financial abuse, physical abuse, sexual abuse, sexual assault, suicidal ideation, isolation, intergenerational trauma, put downs, and depression. *** CONTENT WARNING - This episode discusses physical abuse, sexual abuse, sexual assault, and suicidal ideation. *** If you want to be a guest on our survivor story podcast, please click here or send us an email at narcissistapocalypse@gmail.com PODCAST RECOMMENDATIONS: Perfect Prey With Dr. Christine Cocchiola | Click Here The Covert Narcissism Podcast | Click Here Something Was Wrong | Click Here When Dating Hurts Podcast | Click Here If you or someone you know are experiencing abuse, you are not alone.
