I break down what Texas State Rep. Brian Harrison really uncovered when he went undercover at the University of Texas. Spoiler alert: it wasn't just about “trans issues.” It was a full-blown queer anarchist indoctrination fest—complete with crip theory, BDSM kink theology, and non-medical transition guides. He posted the photos, went viral, and called for the university to be defunded. I'm giving him credit where it's due—but also showing why conservatives keep missing the forest for the queer-theory-covered trees. If you want to understand what's actually going on in these circles, I've got the receipts.

HOUR ONE: On a barren field in the U.S. state of Georgia, five granite slabs rise in a star pattern. Each of them weighs over 20 tons and on top of them, there is a capstone. Nobody knows who built it or why they were placed there, but one popular opinion that their purpose is to guide humanity after a predicted post-apocalyptic event that will come in the not so distant future. (The American Stonehenge) *** When you think "fairies," what comes to mind? You probably picture an adorable and sparkly creature akin to Disney's Tinker Bell, a lovely - and above all, friendly - presence. You may even want to make contact with them. Unfortunately, glittering humanoids with butterfly wings are the stuff of children's books. Retrace faerie folklore, and you'll discover their secret scary origins. (The Dark Side of Fairies) *** In the Summer of 1949, a geologist named Vadim Kolpakov discovered a strange feature on the surface of the earth in the Bodaibo, Irkutsk, region of South-Eastern Siberia. Encircled by a largely treed area, this anomaly is oval with a conical crater that contains a small ball-like mound in its middle. The geologic mystery has baffled scientists who are uncertain of what caused this weird formation. (What Caused the Patomskiy Crater) *** Is there any truth behind the enduring legend of the werewolf? (Planet Werewolf) *** The Red Pen==========HOUR TWO: Love, money, divorce, anger, and murder. One Pennsylvania family had it all and then some in the late 1800's.

It's Friday, January 5th, A.D. 2024. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Ugandan Muslims kill grandmother, 2 grandkids on Christmas On Christmas Day, Islamic extremists in western Uganda killed a 75-year-old woman and her two grandchildren, reports Morning Star News. The bodies of Edrine Ngwabize and her two grandchildren, 5-year-old Emoni and 13-year-old Mathias, were found inside their home in the Kamwenge District after the Muslims broke in. Edrine's son, Wilson said, “The attackers were shouting the Muslim slogan, ‘Allah Akbar' [God is greater] and saying, ‘We have to teach these infidels a lesson during this Christmas celebration.'” He saw the assailants first set ablaze the farm of a church pastor that is 500 meters from his mother's home at about 7:00 p.m. He rushed to warn his mother and the two children, one of them his own, to take cover. Then he returned to hide his wife, who was ill, in a safe place. He said, “On coming back to pick up my mother and the children, I found the Muslim terrorists were already at my mother's house, and there was a loud bang [from gunshot] … which was so frightening.” He rushed to a nearby police station, and officers shot dead the leader of the assailants, Musa Kamusi, as he was fleeing near the house. The assailants also slaughtered five goats and took some food from the home of the deceased. While Muslims make up no more than 12 percent of Uganda's population, they live in high concentrations in the East. The biggest names from Jeffrey Epstein's unsealed court documents The names of acquaintances and associates of the late Jeffrey Epstein, a wealthy man who sexually trafficked minors, were released on Wednesday evening in a set of court documents that were part of a suit against Ghislaine Maxwell in 2015, reports Time Magazine. The documents, the first in more than 200 that are expected to be unsealed over the next week, are part of the defamation lawsuit filed by victim Virginia Roberts Giuffre. Names of figures that were previously associated with Epstein, such as Prince Andrew and former presidents Donald Trump and Bill Clinton, were mentioned in the court documents. New names include the late Marvin Minsky, a former MIT professor, Hedge billionaire fund manager Glenn Dubin, Leslie Wexner, the billionaire founder of Victoria's Secret and Bath & Body Works, the late New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson, and Alan Dershowitz, Epstein's former attorney. Connections to Epstein previously led high-level executives to resign from their positions, like Barclays chief executive Jes Staley. In addition, Jean-Luc Brunel, a French modeling agent suspected of scouting girls for Epstein, killed himself in a Paris jail in 2022 while awaiting trial for rape accusations. Tucker Carlson interviewed Mark Epstein, Jeffrey's brother, which you can watch through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. Mark asserts that his brother did not commit suicide, but was murdered by the U.S. government. Texas Board of Ed. protects children from sexually explicit books On December 13th, the Texas State Board of Education voted to approve new guidelines to reassert parental rights and prohibit “harmful” books in school libraries, reports LifeSiteNews.com. They voted 13-1 in favor of a new set of guidelines to ensure school children are protected from offensive content. The move comes after Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott earlier this year signed into law a new bill, authored by Plano Republican Rep. Jared Patterson, requiring book sellers to rate books for appropriateness, reports KXAN. The seduction and damage of sexually explicit content is comparable to the Proverbs 7:21-23 description of the adulteress who seduces a man. It says, “With persuasive words, she led him astray; she seduced him with her smooth talk. All at once, he followed her like an ox going to the slaughter, like a deer stepping into a noose till an arrow pierces his liver, like a bird darting into a snare, little knowing it will cost him his life.” The Texas set of guidelines further calls on Lone Star State schools to “recognize that obscene content is not protected by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution.” Republican State Rep. Brian Harrison argued that the American Library Association “works against parents by fighting to keep pornographic materials in public libraries under the guise of opposing ‘censorship.'” Pastor slams “Americanized lukewarm church-going Christianity” And finally, at a time when it's increasingly unpopular to believe that salvation is only attained through faith in Jesus Christ, Jonathan Pokluda slammed “Americanized lukewarm church-going Christianity” and stressed that lasting truth and life is found in “no other thing or no other person than Jesus Christ,” reports the Christian Post. In a message delivered to thousands of young people gathered in Atlanta, Georgia, for Passion 2024, Pokluda cited statistics from USA Today revealing that 70% of all major Christian and non-Christian religious groups say many religions can lead to eternal life. He said, “And we might reject this in belief; maybe you hear that, [you think], ‘No, that's not true.' But we accept it in practice because we're not bothered by someone not believing in Jesus. We sleep fine. We ride elevators and walk through hallways with people who are going to Hell, and we're OK. It doesn't seem like we believe that Jesus Christ is the only way. … If you're here and you're a believer, I want to teach you how to address things like, ‘All religions lead to God,' or ‘I'm glad that's your truth.' Or, ‘I'll live my life and get right with God later before I die; I'll figure out the Jesus thing.'” Pokluda, pastor of Harris Creek Baptist Church in Waco, Texas and author of Why Do I Do What I Don't Want to Do?: Replace Deadly Vices with Life-Giving Virtues, tackled the idea of truth, emphasizing that Jesus is not just historically true, but the embodiment of Truth itself. He stressed the importance of recognizing absolute truths, regardless of personal beliefs or feelings. In John 14:6, Pokluda noted that “Jesus says, ‘I'm the way to God. There's no other way to God; I'm the only way to God.' And you probably have heard, ‘Well wait, I think there are many ways to God,' or ‘All religions will lead to God,' or ‘Don't all religions actually teach the same thing?' “That's a statement of ignorance. The person who says that all religions teach the same thing has never studied other religions.” Close And that's The Worldview in 5 Minutes on this Friday, January 5th in the year of our Lord 2024.

Crypto billionaire Sam Bankman-Fried carried out one of the largest financial frauds in the history of capitalism and was just convicted on all counts. This week, Kshama Sawant and Bia Lacombe talk crypto and other financial scams, which were talked up as new ways to get rich quick—but when working people invested what little money they had, the rug was pulled out from under them by big finance and they lost everything. What does the Bankman-Fried case mean for the millions of ordinary people who have lost money to these schemes, and why is he being convicted when most corporate fraudsters never see the inside of a jail cell? Can we trust the justice system to hold other billionaires accountable? And what does the proliferation of these “new avenues” for wealth—crypto, Robinhood, NFTs, etc—say about the capitalist system as a whole? Kshama Sawant and Bia Lacombe speak with Brian Harrison, a Workers Strike Back activist and socialist lawyer, and other WSB activists about how these scams work and how they impact working class people's lives.

The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: Are Aggie jokes true?! If regents are finding it hard to blunt a perception of a Left-liberal agenda at Texas A&M then maybe the jokes are true because, frankly, it's quite easy to deal with such without getting into the arena of academic freedom, etc. Just stop funding programs that promote Leftist political orthodoxy and campus and you'll go a long way to solving the problem at A&M, Texas Tech, Texas State, UNT, Houston and so many others. You don't have to fund conservative-Right programs either – just stop funding and promoting Leftist orthodoxy on campus!Also on the subject of A&M's absurd “settlement” with the UT professor it didn't hire, state Rep. Brian Harrison has it right: “Like hell my constituents should have to pay a DEI activist professor one million dollars for simply not leaving one government job for another government job. She's still tenured at UT Austin and is getting a $1M bonus? I will demand answers from Texas A&M University, my alma mater.”Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995. Another all to common example of local media misleading voters on what local government is doing to property taxes out of Lamesa. The local paper says the council “adopts lower tax rate.” The rate doesn't lower or raise, it gets set anew each year with a different set of base numbers. The truthful and meaningful message would be “Council adopts 2.75 % property tax increase” – that's a lot different than “adopts lower tax rate.”More impeachment debacle news. I discuss several issues and specifically mentioned the section about Paxton and Mindy Montford from this DMN story.

The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: State Rep. Brian Harrison, former Chief of Staff at Health and Human Services under President Trump, joins me to talk about how Texas House leadership, and many members, turned their backs on Texans on the issue of banning COVID vaccine mandates by private employers. Rep. Harrison is asking Governor Abbott to put the issue on one of his special session calls.Also on the subject of COVID, Odessa's doctor, Richard Bartlett, has been proven right on his early treatment of WuFlu, treating inflamation, for which he was denounced by the medical establishment and censored by press outlets.Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.What a letdown for those frothing at the mouth to get Ken Paxton. Today's arraignment on federal charges of Nate Paul, the man the Texas press repeatedly calls central to Paxton's impeachment, found the FBI charging him with only 8 charges all relating to “overstating his assets and understating his liabilities while seeking loans.” The FBI has been working Paul since 2019 and that itself is at the center of Paul's seeking help from the Office of Attorney General. These are charges that almost any real estate developer could be charged with from time to time and, in fact, Trump has been accused of such as have many others. Not much to show, so far, for years of FBI investigation and certainly nothing to do with Paxton in this latest move by the Biden DOJ.Texas oil and gas rig count drops big again this week.Border news: Abbott orders a 1000 foot floating barrier for the Rio Grande.And, other news of Texas.Listen on the radio, or station stream, at 5pm Central.

The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: In the legislature, there are even Republicans who do not want voters to be told the truth on bond elections – that each when passed is effectively a tax increase. As Rep. Brian Harrison asked in the Public Education Committee hearing last week: “I hear this, that bonds don't increase taxes. But I mean, are buildings free? Somebody's paying for the buildings, right?”I have long said on Pratt on Texas that many people, including many who should know better, actually believe bond debt money is magical free money because they are so often told by officials that passing a bond debt issue will not raise their taxes. This is simply untrue. It is bothersome, and maybe indicative of a fundamental problem (?), that some Republican lawmakers want mislead voters on the issue.Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.Behindtheblack.com's Robert Zimmerman is right to be upset with our horrible press.
