This week sees the long-overdue return of my brother-from-another-mother, Shayan of Trivax and host of the Iblis Manifestations podcast. We dive into his perspective on everything from the critical response to Trivax's latest album, The Great Satan, to his vision for the band's future. We also have a candid and wide-ranging discussion about the rapidly evolving situation in his home country of Iran, his views on the future of the Islamic Republic, and much more. On this week's Unsanctioned Filth, the spotlight falls on Polish black metallers Primitiae Dormientium. Then, on the News Rant, I round up the latest singles from At The Gates, Midnight Odyssey, Extinction A.D., Exodus, and Belphegor for judgement. I also answer your questions, including: what I'd like to see more (and less) of in the metal scene, my all-time Top 5 favourite albums, who I consider the best UKHC band and more.

Rob Zombie's latest album The Great Satan releases on February 27 2025. Derek and John got their hands on an advance copy and have been over the moon getting to know it. In this episode the guys talk through the album and get into the nitty gritty of Mr. Halloween himself, Rob Zombie and what makes him tick. They talk about the band exploring its return to classic horror-inspired metal, the significance of band lineup changes, and the influence of Rob Zombie's film career on his music. www.shittalkreviews.comSpotify - https://tinyurl.com/STR-SpotifyApple Podcasts - https://tinyurl.com/STR-Apple-Podcasts#RobZombie #WhiteZombie #HellbillyDeluxe #thegreatsatan #Dragula #LivingDeadGirl #LaSexorcisto #IndustrialMetal #punksanddemons #nuclearblastrecords #blasko #mikeriggs #gingerfish #metal #rock #guitar #drums #HorrorCommunity #FireflyFamily #HalloweenDrop us a line!

In the final installment of The Great Satan Hunt, we bring the investigation to its conclusion. Even granting—temporarily—the claim that Satan appears in Ezekiel 28:13–15, verses 16–19 render that interpretation unsustainable.
The hunt continues. In Part 4 we examine Ezekiel 28:15–17 phrase by phrase. Trade, merchandise, violence, and judgment before kings—does this really sound like Satan, or a corrupt human ruler? We slow down, stay in context, and let the text speak for itself.

For decades, Americans were told Iran was Israel's problem — not ours. Ambassador Mike Huckabee dismantles that dangerous lie. From the murder of thousands — of U.S. troops in Iraq, to Iran's relentless push for ICBMs capable of striking the American homeland, the Islamic Republic has waged a 47-year jihad against the United States. Until President Trump ordered the destruction of Iran's nuclear program, the ayatollahs were racing toward the bomb. Trump became the first commander in chief to truly hold the regime accountable — and Iran responded with assassination plots against him. Secretary of State Marco Rubio lays it out plainly: radical Islam doesn't want coexistence — it wants expansion, domination, and submission. And Iran has never hidden the fact that America is the Great Satan. With U.S.–Iran talks failing, Israel on high alert, and the regime teetering under internal collapse, Ambassador Huckabee explains why this moment is pivotal — not just for Israel, but for America, the West, and Judeo-Christian civilization itself. This is about knowing your enemy — and understanding that Israel is the front line, but America is the ultimate target. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
The hunt continues. In Part 3 we slow down and examine Ezekiel 28:14 phrase by phrase. Does "the anointed cherub that covereth" really describe Satan—or is it exalted royal imagery aimed at the king of Tyre? No assumptions, no traditions—just careful, contextual reading

The hunt continues. With Bible and notebook in hand, we step into Ezekiel 28:13 and test every claim carefully. Is this Satan in Eden—or poetic language describing the king of Tyre's wealth and pride? No systems. No shortcuts. Just slow, contextual reading.

Ezekiel 28 is one of the most quoted passages used to describe Satan's fall. But does the text actually say that? Before assuming anything, we slow down, read the context, and start a careful, verse-by-verse search. Grab your Bible and your notebook — the Great Satan Hunt begins.

Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they vent over Senate Republicans being far too generous in extending Obamacare subsidies, Georgia Rep. Hank Johnson calling America the “Great Satan,” and the mainstream media suddenly embracing Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene now that she's feuding with President Trump.First, they shake their heads as Senate Republicans propose extending the “emergency” COVID-era Obamacare subsidies for adults making up to seven times the federal poverty level. The GOP plan does change how the subsidies are delivered and it's better than the Democrats' plan. But should there be a plan at all for an emergency that ended years ago?Next, they unload on Rep. Hank Johnson. Formerly just comic relief in Congress for asking things like whether a greater U.S. military presence on Guam would make the island tip over, Johnson is now openly calling the U.S. "the Great Satan," echoing terrorist groups and their benefactors in Iran.Finally, they marvel at the sudden mainstream media fascination with Marjorie Taylor Greene. After years of dismissing her as extreme, reporters are now eager to interview her as long as it fans the flames of GOP infighting with President Trump.Please visit our great sponsors:Before you check out for the holidays, do one smart thing for your future with Noble Gold.

Many believe the Biden administration, happily and now an historical footnote, fostered an anti-Christian approach to politics, culture, and lifestyle generally. That was so even though Biden was a self-proclaiming Catholic Christian.In the Biden administration, there really were none in high positions who were publicly confessing Christians. That of course, under the Trump administration, has significantly changed, and changed for the better. There are those in leadership in America now who come to their awesome responsibilities as public citizens and representatives of WE THE PEOPLE with a biblical influence in their lives, even an outright Christian testimony. What a blessing that is for America, for Christianity, and for:FREEDOM OF RELIGIONfor all Americans, the FIRST AMENDMENT really at work!I do hope and pray that you know by heart, by memory, those First Amendment freedoms. They include and especially so:THE FREEDOM OF RELIGION.The freedom to practice any religion of choice. Or, none at all. Your call. But there can be no restriction on religious freedom and worship of any kind, so says the First Amendment. Let people believe and worship as they please. We The Christians, born again, evangelical, denominational, Roman Catholic, are free not only to worship as we please, but to believe as we please. Few countries in this modern age allow that, and so many nations abridge that freedom, attack it, attempt to control it, or even eliminate it. Not so with the Trump administration. Trump has pledged to reinvigorate the old Christian America, to respect Christianity and all its forms, and to make absolutely certain that there is no persecution, disrespect, or attempts to control this precious faith.And the same for Jews. Antisemitism is on the rise, one of the most ugly things in the entire history of mankind and now even resurrected today. So many politicos, academics, and even many in business and higher up in corporations turn a blind eye or actually foster antisemitism. That will all end under the Trump administration. Amen to that.And there is absolute freedom to worship for all other religions, including Islam, the Hindu religion, and any other legitimate religion. That is the American promise, the Constitutional guarantee, that sacred Frist Amendment freedom and it will be respected more than ever, more than under the administration of Obama or Biden, as the Constitution has always promised.That beloved First Amendment also guarantees freedom of speech and press. More than ever, that will be reinvigorated and protected. Both such freedoms are absolutely essential with regard to the full and free practice of religion.And the same for the other First Amendment freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution, namely freedom of assembly and freedom of petition. Churches, gatherings, services, the congregations of people in worship can feel the old constitutional freedoms under the Trump administration more than ever. Amen to that. Make it happen President Donald J. Trump, MAKE IT HAPPEN!DEFENSE. Our Department of Defense needs change, even radical change back. It has become woke, socialized, racially concerned, all to the detriment of its clear and primary priority and mission, namely, the development and growth of the greatest military, army, navy, and marines, and more, that the world has ever known. We need an aggressive, remade and revitalized Department of Defense and branches of the military. We have threats to our great country like never before, threats from China, especially China in this modern day and age, and our old nemesis Russia, and North Korea, a rising nuclear power, and of course Iran, which literally hates the Great Satan, the America we love. All four and more would love to see the end of America and given the right circumstances, whether all-out war, or terrorism, or limited combat, they are ready, hatred brimming, to destroy America or as much of it as they can.Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, intends to change the department, bring in new leadership, develop meaningful financial budgets and the support of Congress and develop the weapons, offensive and defensive, which our country desperately needs, especially to keep pace with China. It seems inevitable that we will have warfare of some sort with China sometime in the future, perhaps the near future.We, America, must be ready!THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM. More than ever judges at any level of the federal judiciary and all the way up to the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) will play an important and primary role in the development of the philosophy, policies, and future of our country. There are many, very many, judgeships unfilled and can be filled by the appointments of the president of the United States. President Trump intends to do just that. He is well aware of the need to appoint judges and the right kind of judges, fair thinking judges who will make the right decisions for America. In the first Trump administration, 2017-2021, Trump nominated three Supreme Court justices, all were confirmed by the Senate, and all were fair minded or conservative leaning. They were the outstanding scholars including:1.Neil Gorsuch2.Anthony Kennedy3.Amy Coney BarrettMuch litigation will be decided by the Supreme Court, critical for America, and there will be many emergency hearings on the basis of critical and immediate need of our country, which will be decided upon by the Supreme Court in short order. Trump has issued dozens of Executive Orders, many are being challenged by liberals, radicals, and democrats, and the Supreme Court will be more active with emergency hearings perhaps than in any other administration. We can only hope for fair results, for the vast majority of those executive orders are exactly what America needs, they are legal, thorough, and they create the change-back which again, our country desperately needs. We were under Biden on a pathway to Socialism, even Marxism, and so many of these executive orders put a stop to so much of that. I say Amen to that, and I trust you do as well. What do you think of the first six weeks in office of Donald J. Trump?Franklin Graham, the marvelous evangelical evangelist and pastor, son of perhaps the greatest evangelist ever in the history of America, Billy Graham, prays himself that President Trump will surround himself with men and women who will give him Godly counsel and advice, and urges us, we the Christian people of America, to do the very same. I do hope and pray that you will. President Trump will be challenged the world over, and especially by China, Russia, North Korea, and Iran. But Trump is tough, no nonsense, determined, and not at all intimidated, and no nation or foreign leader will intimidate him no matter what they do. As world events unfold in the next four years, WE THE PEOPLE should both:WATCH AND PRAY.We should follow the advice of the Apostle Paul in I Timothy 2:1-3, where this God-sent apostle admonishes us as follows:“THEREFORE, I EXHORT FIRST OF ALL THAT SUPPLICATIONS, PRAYERS, INTERCESSIONS, AND GIVING OF THANKS BE MADE FOR ALL MEN, FOR KINGS, AND ALL WHO ARE IN AUTHORITY, THAT WE MAY LEAD A QUIET AND PEACEABLE LIFE IN ALL GODLINESS AND REVERENCE FOR THIS IS GOOD AND ACCEPTABLE IN THE SIGHT OF GOD OUR SAVIOR.”So, my fellow Christians, prayers. And intercessions. And giving of thanks. So that WE THE PEOPLE may lead a quiet and peaceable life, and be assured of the rights in the Constitution which are justly ours. Why? Because this is good, says Paul, and not only acceptable in the sight of God our savior, but what this God, our Lord Jesus Christ wants for us.So, my fellow Americans, pray for President Trump, and all who advise him, all of our leaders, secretaries of various departments, our Congress, House, and Senate, our courts and our Supreme Court, pray for all of them. Pray for anyone who is in authority and who works for us. Pray that the wisdom of God Almighty will guide President Trump and all political others so that America can be great again. Pray thatthe promises of Donald J. Trump will be fulfilled that indeed, the four years of the second Trump administration will:MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN (MAGA)!
YOU have a dirty mind. "Satan's Boletes" doesn't mean *THAT*. Although it does translate to "Great Satan's Fun Guys," so maybe it's still worth a giggle, as Mrs S says. Welcome to episode 104.

As Kamala Harris curries favor with pro-Hamas Democrats, her administration is euchring Israel to agree to a ceasefire designed to save that terrorist organization from increasingly imminent destruction by the Jewish State. Should her efforts succeed, the predictable result would be not only the death in captivity of more hostages, but the imperiling of every other Israeli as what would amount to their country's defeat emboldens Iran and its friends to try to finish her off. They will then turn to us, “the Great Satan.” Fortunately, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is resisting such extortion, as he must. U.S. polls keep showing eighty percent of Americans stand with Israel, and not Hamas. Especially if our campuses are again besieged by the pro-jihadist “Red-Green axis” this fall, Kamala's sympathies may become a distinct political liability, as well as a strategic disaster for America. This is Frank Gaffney.
In this episode we will investigate the mysterious world of Vocaloid. What is it? Why is it? And most importantly, does it upset Chri$tians? Vocaloid is a voice synthesizer program launched by the Yamaha Corporation in 2004. This software allows users to synthesize human singing by typing in the lyrics, much like text to speech.Each voicebank was modelled after professional singers and each voice bank has a custom avatar.Each voice has an animated character that goes along with that voice. For example there are Kagamine Len and Rin who are twins with yellow hair.Then there's Megurine Luka who has long pink hair and is very elegant.The most popular Vocaloid character is Hatsune Miku. A sixteen year old girl with long blue pigtails.She has become the defining icon of the Vocaloid phenomena. When you think of Vocaloid, and I'm sure you do as often as I do, you think of Hatsune Miku.This episode contains weird marriages, disappointing performances and ghosts!Also making cameos, Lady Gaga, David Letterman, Willy Nelson, Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, Wimbledon, Pepper's Ghost, John Henry Pepper, Tupac, Easy E, Ol' Dirty Bastard, Michael Jackson, Frank Zappa, Ronnie James Dio, Akihiko Kondo, Chiharu Dawn, God-ish, Pinnochio-P, Friedrich Nietzsche, Teniwoha, LGBTQ+, Song for Great Satan, Nanka-P, Song for a Great Evil King, Hachioji-P, q*Left, Sweet Devil, Valentines Day, Project Sekai Colourful Stage featuring Hatsune Miku, Mizuki Akiyama, Mrs Lovejoy, Ferry, She Could Be Satan For All I Know, Gumi, Gray Slate, Sad Satan, Oliver, John Lydon, Johnny Rotten, Sex Pistols, Jimmy Saville, Lower One's Eyes, Nulut, Osamu Dazai. #SketchComedy #Sketch #Comedy #Sketch Comedy #Atheist #Science #History #Atheism #ConspiracyTheory #Sceptical #Scepticism #Mythology #Religion #Devil #Satan #Skeptic #Debunk #HeavyMetal #anime #manga #animation #japanese

Bible Study – Job Class Two: Job 1: 6-12 From the Orthodox Study Bible. Satan is Permitted to Test Job 6. Then as it so happened one day that behold, the angels of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and the devil also came with them. 7. The Lord said to the devil, “Where did you come from?” So the devil answered the Lord and said, “I came here after going about the earth and walking around under heaven.” 8. Then the Lord said to him, “Have you yet considered my servant Job, since there is none like him on the earth: a blameless, true, and God-fearing man, and one who abstains from every evil thing?” 9. So the devil answered and said before the Lord, “Does Job worship the Lord for no reason? 10. Have you not made a hedge around him, around his household, and around all that he has on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his cattle have increased in the and. 11. But stretch out Your hand and touch all that he has, and see if he will bless You to Your face.” 12. Then the Lord said to the devil, “Behold, whatever he has I give into your hand; but do not touch him.” Thus the devil went out from the Lord. Let's break this down. v. 6; why were the angels of God presenting themselves before the Lord? Many angels surround Him continually; · Anaphora of St. John Chrsysostom. For all these things we give thanks unto Thee, and to Thine only-begotten Son, and to Thy Holy Spirit; for all things of which we know and of which we know not, whether seen or unseen; and we thank Thee for this Liturgy which Thou hast willed to accept at our hands, though there stand by Thee thousands of archangels and hosts of angels (Daniel 7:10) the Cherubim and the Seraphim, six- winged (Isiah 6:2) many-eyed (Revelations 4:8) who soar aloft, borne on their wings: Singing the triumphant hymn, shouting, proclaiming, and saying: “Holy! Holy! Holy! Lord of Sabaoth! Heaven and earth are full of Thy glory'. (Isaiah 6:3) Hosanna in the highest! Blessed is He that comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest. (Mathew 21:9, Mark 11:9-10, Psalms 118:26) · Hebrews 12:22. But you have come to Mount Zion, to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem. You have come to thousands upon thousands of angels in joyful assembly, Possibly – they are part of His Divine Council · Psalm 81:1-2a; “God stood in the assembly of gods; He judges in the midst of gods,” · Psalm 88: 9-13 (89:6-8). “The heavens shall confess Your wonders, O Lord, and Your truth in the church of the saints. For who in the clouds shall be compared to the Lord and who among the sons of God shall be compared to the Lord?” More likely – they are ministering angels · Hebrews 1:14. Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation? · Psalms 90:11. For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; · Matthew 18:10. “See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in heaven. Hesychius of Jerusalem (5th Century - not recognized as a saint): Was there ever a time when the angels did not stand before the Lord? Was it not written about them that “a thousand thousands served him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him”? (Daniel 7:11)But this coming, in our opinion, is that of the angels who had been sent to serve human beings. Paul actually says, “Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation?” HOMILIES ON JOB 2.1.6. More on v.6: why was the devil with him? Note – the problem is why God would be talking with the devil, and why the devil could even stand to be in His presence. One way to resolve this is to note that there are other places in scripture when God talks to the devil and demons (temptation in the wilderness, demons at Gardenes). Another way is to say that it wasn't really “THE Devil”, it was “The Satan”, which is a job title, “The Adversary.” This takes us back to the Divine Council. As Michael Heiser writes; Evidence for exactly the same structures in the Israelite council is tenuous. Despite the fact that popular Israelite religion may have understood Yahweh as having a wife, Asherah (see Hess), it cannot be sustained that the religion of the prophets and biblical writers contained this element or that the idea was permissible. There is also no real evidence for the craftsman tier. However, the role of the śāṭān (see Satan), the accuser who openly challenges God on the matter of Job's spiritual resilience, is readily apparent (Job 1:6–12; 2:1–6). In the divine council in Israelite religion Yahweh was the supreme authority over a divine bureaucracy that included a second tier of lesser ʾĕlōhîm (bĕnê ʾēlîm; bĕnê ʾĕlōhîm or bĕnê hāʾĕlōhîm) and a third tier of malʾākîm (“angels”). In the book of *Job some members of the council apparently have a mediatory role with respect to human beings (Job 5:1; 15:8; 16:19–21; cf. Heb 1:14). M. S. Heiser, “Divine Council,” ed. Tremper Longman III and Peter Enns, Dictionary of the Old Testament: Wisdom, Poetry & Writings (Downers Grove, IL; Nottingham, England: IVP Academic; Inter-Varsity Press, 2008), 114. However, these are not the tacts that St. John Chrysostom took. By his time, this Satan had been seen to be the same as the fallen angel in the garden etc. · He had a lot to say about how angels and demons are mixed together here on earth (even remarking on the headcover passage 1 Corinthians 11:10). This has obvious implications for us and our spiritual lives! · He also said that there was no way the devil could talk to God in this way, and that this is written for the sake of the story (page 24). Also his comment on being rich already putting Job into the arena. [NOTE: I was kidding/prodding about St. John being woke, but he was/is supremely concerned for the poor and the obligations of the rich. Before the term became altered and politicized, this made him a strong promoter of social justice.] v. 7–8 Where Have You Come From? St Gregory the Great: Satan's “going to and fro on the earth” represents his exploring the hearts of the carnal. In this way he is seeking diligently for grounds of accusation against them. He “goes round about the earth,” for he surrounds human hearts in order to steal all that is good in them, that he may lodge evil in their minds, that he may occupy completely what he has taken over, that he may fully reign over what he has occupied, that he may possess the very lives of those he has perfected in sin. Note that he does not say he has been flying through the earth but that he has been “walking up and down it.” For in fact he is never easily dislodged from whomever he tempts. But where he finds a soft heart, he plants the foot of his wretched persuasion, so that by dwelling there, he may stamp the footprints of evil practice, and by a wickedness similar to his own he may render reprobate all whom he is able to overcome. But in spite of this, blessed Job is commended with these words, “Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man who fears God and turns away from evil.” To him, whom divine inspiration strengthens to meet the enemy, God praises as it were even in the ears of Satan. For God's praise of Job is the first evidence of Job's virtues, so that they may be preserved when they are manifested. But the old enemy is enraged against the righteous the more he perceives that they are hedged around by the favor of God's protection. MORALS ON THE BOOK OF JOB 2.65.66. v. 1:9–10 Does Job Fear God for Nothing? St. John Chrysostom: Do you see that Job's wealth was a gift from God? Do you see that it was not the fruit of injustice? How Job had to suffer in order to demonstrate to people that his wealth was not the fruit of injustice! And behold, the devil himself bore witness to him from above and did not realize that he praised Job as well by saying that he had not acquired that wealth through illicit trading and through the oppression of others. Instead, Job owed his wealth to God's blessing, and his security came from heaven. You would have not rejoiced if Job had not been virtuous. But the devil praised and covered him with laurels without realizing what he was doing. COMMENTARY ON JOB 1:10.

The Blue Cord Karen Bijjani There was a time in this country when we trained, equipped and sent missionaries into the far reaches of the world as witnesses for Christ. Their success was astounding. But now, we see the Islamic faith making huge inroads into the people groups of, what we refer to as, the “10-40 Window.” Now, these same nations are sending their Islamic practices into the Western nations and, as they do so, we can see the Christian Faith weakening here. In fact, they refer to us as the “Great Satan.” Does that shock you? It shouldn't. We have let our Faith in God and in Jesus slip to the point where immorality runs rampant in this nation. This nation is the #1 promoter of pornography, drugs, etc. So much so that now, other nations look to us as needing to hear the Gospel. In that light, I want to bring you someone today who is still faithful in reaching across other cultures. Sharing her Faith with people of other Faiths. Karen Bejjani grew up in America's heartland, basically unaware of the faiths in other cultures around the world. She was a successful business woman, climbing the corporate ladder of success. Then, in 2011, she and her husband Renod, launched iHOPE Ministries. iHOPE Ministries comes alongside the Church to inspire and empower people every day Christians to share their faith with people of other faiths. Amen! Through the efforts of iHOPE Ministries, thousands of people have become Jesus followers across the world. God is making an extraordinary impact through ordinary Christians – and doing it through iHOPE Ministries. Karen is also the author of a great book, “The Blue Cord: Connecting Your Faith with Purpose.” She also hosts a podcast by the same name and the ministry also has some training materials and courses as well. Help me welcome to the program, Karen Bejjani. Karen, thank you for coming on the program today to share all about your ministry. I do appreciate it. The first question I always start with is this… Other than that brief information I just shared, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Karen Bejjani?” Your husband was a Christian living in a Muslim country. Share a little bit about his upbringing and the persecution he endured. This persecution gave him a true hatred of Muslims, correct? How did his story affect you when you first heard it? From what I understand, he realized the Middle East and North Africa shifted from a Christian heritage to 99% Muslim – but that was not all. He lived in those areas and now he started seeing the trends in Western nations – just as I alluded to in the opening, correct? Your background was not in ministry. What was the impetus that the Lord used to get you started doing what you are doing now in ministry? Have you always been so outspoken and courageous about sharing your Faith? Share with us some of the teachings and outreaches that iHOPE Ministries sponsors… But, not everyone is evil. Not everyone truly understands what their faith truly represents. What should we know about people of other faiths who are living here among us that you have learned over the...
Here are 3 big things you need to know right now— Number One— The so called Methadone Mile—once hailed as some great liberal achievement is going to be torn down by a Democrat Mayor in Bean Town—I guess the whole DEI thingy ain't workin out after all— Number Two— In New Jersey the Democrat Governor Phil Murphy is begging the Democrats there to pay off thousands in taxpayer dollars he used to go to the Taylor Swift concert—and have a lot of drinks too— Number Three— The distractions are many these days—and the parade of so-called breaking news consumes millions of us every day— I think some of the more sane members of society limit the amount of news they take in—I mean it can really give you a terrible outlook on things— I mean there are now two wars—and we are pretty much paying for both—and while the one in Ukraine seems to be a stalemate of sorts—the War in Gaza looks like it could go out of control and spread like a wildfire at any moment— We are also looking at the economy and we could be on the verge of a recession—worse than any we've seen in a long time—and the price of everything seems to be out of control— The divide between left and right keeps us arguing and if you're not into politics you can get busy watching sports, porn, video games and an endless stream of TV shows and movies to make sure you are not looking around much or seeing what is actually happening to our country— Because if you were watching you would realize there are 3 things right now that could also be the end of us all—or at least the end of things as we have known them— China of course tops my list as the CCP is the biggest global threat to America and all western nations—and they are building a huge military—and they aren't building it—not to use it— Next is our debt—I mean we owe so much money to so many people that we may never dig ourselves out of that hole—not without making things a whole lot worse—and it was one of the failures of ancient Rome—fiscally reckless policies that will lead to bankruptcy— Which brings me to number three today on my list of urgent matters—and that is the border—it is worse than you have been told—even by me—because the evidence of wholesale failure is coming out every day— Right now as we speak—tens of thousands of people from all over the world are on their way to cross the border illegally—some want a better life, some want to be Americans—BUT others they want to invade—rob, pillage and steal anything and everything they can—others want to destroy America, the country they call the Great Satan—and they will sacrifice their own lives to make it happen—I mean, the terrorist attacks are coming—its not a matter of whether it will happen—it's a matter of when and where—and will there be multiple attacks at the same time? Those are the relevant questions we are facing today— Let me start with Oscar El Blue—a reporter for Real America's Voice who has covered tens of thousands of miles from the border all the way to South America covering the story of the flood of illegal aliens streaming into our country—this may be the biggest threat of all in the end—time will tell— It depends on who you ask—but the estimates range from about 6 million to as many as 15 million people have come into this country illegally since Joe Biden took office—and right now the numbers are setting new records every single day—and many of the once mouthy Democrat politicians who chided Republicans for sounding the alarm on the invasion—find themselves begging for it to stop— And those people are being spread all over the country—even though most of them are unknown to law enforcement—could they be terrorists? Of course they could and everybody knows it—so why are we letting this go on day after day and month after month? And the one guy who really should have a good handle on how many people have broken the law and come into the United States—just won't answer any of what should be really easy questions— And the border is setting up one more fight—this one in Washington over money—

Rafael Trujillo was Generalissimo of the Dominican Republic from 1930 until his assassination in 1961. The violence deployed by his regime was extraordinary, with Trujillo's men murdering an estimated 30,000 Haitians in a matter of weeks in 1937, not to mention thousands of Dominicans across three decades, in what my guest today describes as the violence of the Trujillo plantation. Trujillo's story, and indeed the story of the Dominican Republic, can be read as a story of domination, perhaps suffocation, by the United States. The image of the United States as the Great Satan in the World, which can only do wrong, is a simplistic and misleading one, but it isn't difficult to see where it comes from if you read about the Caribbean and Latin America. My guest today is Junot Diaz. Junot is a Dominican-American author, who has written multiple novels including The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao, winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 2008. He is also a Professor of Creative Writing at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and his insights on the experience of growing up Dominican in the United States are fascinating.

One of the most politically charged football matches in history has just kicked off at one of the most political World Cups ever. Iran's win over the US at the 1998 World Cup was billed by the regime's supporters as victory over the "Great Satan". Fast forward to Qatar 2022, and that grudge match is on display once again. Arab Gulf States Institute in Washington DC senior scholar Kristin Diwan spoke to Corin Dann.

Fans kept their distance from the skunk, which searched the aisles and under seats for food before hiding under a step.

This is the way things go at the top of college football’s food chain. If you can’t win the most important game on your schedule, there will be questions about whether you are the right man for the job. For the second straight season, Harbaugh’s Michigan team pummeled Day and Ohio State. Day is 45-5 at Ohio State as Urban Meyer’s replacement, but 1-2 against Michigan. It was just last year when Harbaugh couldn’t win the big one. Not anymore. Now he was the Wolverines on the verge of a second straight College Football Playoff. NCAAFB – AP Top 25: Michigan up to No. 2 behind top-ranked Georgia Michigan moved up to No. 2 in The Associated Press college football poll, with TCU at No. 3 and Southern California at No. 4 behind top-ranked Georgia after four top-10 teams lost on the final day of regular-season games. The Bulldogs are No. 1 for the eighth straight week and 11th time this season in the AP Top 25. Georgia received 58 first-place votes and Michigan received the other five.

The result leaves both teams with three points after two games in Group E. Fuller took advantage of a defensive error when Japan failed to clear the ball and hit the net from 18 yards with the ball going in off the fingertips of leaping Japan goalkeeper Shuichi Gonda. The match was tactical and largely lackluster and the first half did not yield a single shot on goal. The second half was slightly better with Japan pressing throughout until Costa Rica broke through. Morocco 2, Belgium 0 – Morocco pulls off another World Cup upset, beats Belgium 2-0 Morocco pulled off another shock at the World Cup by beating Belgium 2-0 and leaving Kevin de Bruyne and the 2018 semifinalists in peril of a group-stage exit. Morocco captain Romain Saiss gave his team the lead with a barely noticeable deflection off his hip after a free kick from Abdelhamid Sabiri in the 73rd minute. Zakaria Aboukhlal then guided a shot into the roof of the net off a pass from Hakim Ziyech in stoppage time. Belgium had won its last seven group games at the World Cup. It was Morocco’s first win at a World Cup since 1998 and only its third ever. Croatia 4, Canada 1 – Croatia downs Canada 4-1 at World Cup on Kramaric’s 2 goals Andrej Kramaric scored a pair of goals and Croatia crushed Canada’s hopes of advancing at its first World Cup in 36 years with a 4-1 victory.

Álvaro Morata put Spain ahead in the 62nd minute and Füllkrug equalized in the 83rd. Germany will next face Costa Rica. The Costa Ricans defeated Japan 1-0 earlier in the day.

The school said Rhule would be introduced at a Monday news conference and terms of the contract would be announced then. The 47-year-old Rhule has been out of work for less than two months since getting fired by the Carolina Panthers. Nebraska has had six straight losing seasons and is more than 20 years removed from its 1990s heyday. Rhule took over struggling programs at Temple and Baylor and built them into conference contenders in three years. He was 11-27 with Carolina before getting fired after a 1-4 start.

NCAAWBKB – Indiana coach says Vegas tourney set back women’s basketball Indiana women’s basketball coach Teri Moren says she considered not playing Memphis on Saturday night in the Las Vegas Invitational. No paramedics were on site to tend to an injured Auburn player in the preceding game. Auburn freshman Kharyssa Richardson fell hard to the floor with four minutes left against Colorado State and appeared to bang her head. There was a 50-minute wait for EMT personnel to arrive to The Mirage on the Las Vegas Strip. That delayed the Indiana-Memphis games by nearly 90 minutes.

The result leaves both teams with three points after two games in Group E. Fuller took advantage of a defensive error when Japan failed to clear the ball and hit the net from 18 yards with the ball going in off the fingertips of leaping Japan goalkeeper Shuichi Gonda. The match was tactical and largely lackluster and the first half did not yield a single shot on goal. The second half was slightly better with Japan pressing throughout until Costa Rica broke through. Morocco 2, Belgium 0 – Morocco pulls off another World Cup upset, beats Belgium 2-0 Morocco pulled off another shock at the World Cup by beating Belgium 2-0 and leaving Kevin de Bruyne and the 2018 semifinalists in peril of a group-stage exit. Morocco captain Romain Saiss gave his team the lead with a barely noticeable deflection off his hip after a free kick from Abdelhamid Sabiri in the 73rd minute. Zakaria Aboukhlal then guided a shot into the roof of the net off a pass from Hakim Ziyech in stoppage time. Belgium had won its last seven group games at the World Cup. It was Morocco’s first win at a World Cup since 1998 and only its third ever. Croatia 4, Canada 1 – Croatia downs Canada 4-1 at World Cup on Kramaric’s 2 goals Andrej Kramaric scored a pair of goals and Croatia crushed Canada’s hopes of advancing at its first World Cup in 36 years with a 4-1 victory. Alphonso Davies scored Canada’s first-ever World Cup goal seconds into the match but the team’s trip to soccer’s biggest tournament will end on Thursday against Morocco. The Group F leaders beat Belgium 2-0 earlier in the day. Marko Livaja and Lovro Majer also scored for the 2018 World Cup runners-up. Spain 1, Germany 1 – FT – Germany salvages 1-1 draw against Spain at World Cup Germany forward Niclas Füllkrug salvaged a 1-1 draw against Spain at the World Cup. The Germans still need to win their last group match to have a chance of advancing to the knockout stage. The four-time champions were eliminated in the group stage four years ago in Russia. Álvaro Morata put Spain ahead in the 62nd minute and Füllkrug equalized in the 83rd. Germany will next face Costa Rica. The Costa Ricans defeated Japan 1-0 earlier in the day. Even a win may not be enough for the Germans. They are in last place in Group E and need the other result to go their way.

The federation described the move as a show of support for protesters in Iran ahead of the two nations’ World Cup match Tuesday. The federation says in a statement Sunday that it decided to forego the official flag on social media accounts to show “support for the women in Iran fighting for basic human rights.” The move comes as nationwide protests challenging Tehran’s theocratic government continue in Iran. FIFA – Lalas: US overlooked importance to Iran of ’98 Cup match Looking back to the United States’ infamous 1998 World Cup loss to Iran, Alexi Lalas thought the Americans failed to appreciate the emotional significance of their opponents. He says "this is a country and culture that we have a long history with — a lot of it is negative, let’s be honest.” Following draws against Wales and England, the U.S. needs a win to reach the knockout stage. The U.S. and Iran met at the 1998 tournament, 19 years after an Islamic Revolution.

Opening & closing music courtesy of Bellevue Presbyterian Church (37221)We got hurt & the nation demanded retribution.We lost the first battle of WW IV and we don't know it! We don't even know when it happened. Was it the Marine barracks in Lebanon or the USS Cole? 911 was a wake-up call.What are we trained to do in an emergency? Dial nine - one - one of course. It's the one thing you may do from an otherwise locked iPhone. Our problem is our focus we employed the same strategy as in Viet Nam. We fought an amorphous enemy on his terms. The famous “seek & destroy” found nothing & destroyed the wrong stuff. We could have played The “Great Satan” card & made Kabul vanish in a cloud of nuclear dust. Sun Tsu would have counseled patience. “Know your enemy & in 1000 battles, you will not know defeat.” Revenge is a dish best served cold.

Do you love him, that is politically love him? Or, do you hate him? There seems to be no in–between. One or the other.Extreme positions but then again, Trump is a man of extremes. All or nothing with this business man. You are with me or you are against me is the mindset, the position, the psyche of: THE DONALD. His personality is engaging, energizing and exceptional. Perhaps that is why one half of our country and its adult, legal voting citizens embrace him. But his personality can be abrasive, antagonistic, contradictory and confronting. We the people will, think so many, never have another President like him. Those who hate him shall Amen and those who love him grieve for him and for America. For without him, back to politics as usual. The turn–off side of Trump's personality cost him the election, so say many. But look at the promises he made in 2016. TRUMP PERFORMED. The vast majority of the political promises candidate Trump made were PERFORMED by President Trump. Contrast that with Joe Biden who presented himself as a political candidate Democrat centrist, shunning the extremists like Sanders, AOC and the radical Muslims Tlaib and Omar, promising to unite America and bring together its factious and diverse elements in a new American unity. There has never been a larger political lie since 2008. Trump promised and performed. Biden promised to get elected. THE DONALD fundamentally changed the Supreme Court of America. In came Gorsuch, Kavanaugh and Barrett, Catholics all, joining fellow Catholics Thomas, Alito and Roberts for a total of six Roman Catholics on the Supreme Court: TWO THIRDS!With the exception of Roberts, in many ways a chameleon and unpredictable in decision making, all are constitutionalists, originalists, rule of law thinking Justices, nothing but good for America. Whatever happens in the political arenas federal and state, we the Christian and conservative people can only hope for the full protection of our beloved Constitution and especially the freedoms of the First and Second Amendments. Thank you President Trump, thank you.And the MILITARY. Trump strengthened the American military, knowing the incredible war–like threats which exist verbally. Military budgets were increased and military aid was provided to America's friends. Military respect for America increased worldwide.And TAXES. Taxes were generally lowered especially on the Corporate side. The economy grew, even boomed in certain areas. Unemployment was at an all time low. Americans were confident, working, spending, enjoying a lifestyle they had not for years. Then came, according to Trump, THE CHINESE VIRUS. Corona, Covid–19. Destroyed most of those economic gains and probably was the most significant factor in the political defeat of THE DONALD. The oppressive Obama REGULATIONS AND EXECUTIVE ORDERS were done away with. The essential freedoms for business to grow and produce were restored. The SWAMP was identified, attacked and cut back in size and influence. Trump believed and practiced the Reagan philosophy and admonition: GET GOVERNMENT OFF PEOPLE'S BACKS!And the MEDIA, corrupt to the core, incredibly biased to the point of being un–American or even anti–American was identified for what it is. The media hated Trump and Trump hated the media. Twitter replaced the press conference. No effort, real effort was made by the press to ask and interview, but merely seize an opportunity in person to attack, confront, belittle and reign hostility upon the President of the United States. Trump exposed them for what they are, the three networks, the cable–haters CNN, MSNBC and others, turning to Fox even though at the end of his term, Fox began slowly to turn left which occasioned the rise of NewsMax and One America, most interesting new conservative cable outlets which began to take much of the Fox audience. Biden and the new – old Democrats will now be the darlings of old media and it, negative for four years, will become once again positive and supporting. Donald Trump vigorously supported the essential and fundamental five freedoms of the First Amendment and especially the first and most predominant freedom: FREEDOM OF RELIGION.No President, said so many African Americans, was more friendly to religion, the church, and Christianity, and Black Christians then Donald Trump. Of course, the media made sure he never got credit for that. Many wise African Americans saw the danger to religion, and especially Christianity as religious freedoms under the First Amendment were eroded, step by step wherever possible. Trump, with Executive Orders, did everything possible to prevent that from happening and to preserve, protect and defend religious liberty. As a Christian, I thank you for that Mr. President. THANK YOU! Trump aggressively attacked the immigration problem. He did everything possible to stem the tide of illegal immigrants entering our country illegally. He championed the wall, the Mexican wall and much of that was built. Democrats aggressively opposed the law then, but now, under Biden and with their full governmental control, the priority of the wall returns. Trump attacked the trade problems America has. He utilized tariffs to protect us against the unfair practices of foreign nations, including and especially CHINA. PRESIDENT TRUMP was PRO–ISRAEL. He in many ways authored and motivated the ABRAHAM ACCORDS. Bitter, hateful enemies became friends. The United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, even the Sudan and others became friendly to Israel, restored nations and resumed trade. Trump confronted CHINA, a brutal communist–controlled nation. He exposed China for what it is, a war–like, freedom–oppressing nation determined to be the most important, the very first and most powerful nation in the entire world. Trump exposed China's unfair trade practices, the governmental support of industry to compete worldwide which of course included the oppression of its own people and asked the world to recognize China for what it was and is. Naturally, Trump had no Democrat or media support. Biden, you can be sure, will undo any good Trump did and China will once again resume its unfair practices and even subterfuge against America and WE THE PEOPLE. That perhaps is something to be feared as much as anything. RUSSIA, the great Bear is on the rise. Russia is equal to or even superior to America militarily. Russia will increase in competition and threat to America under Biden. And IRAN. This war–like, hatred–filled nation is determined to destroy the nation of Israel, the Little Satan and then, find ways to attack and destroy THE GREAT SATAN, namely our beloved America. Iran will resume nuclear production under Biden, of that you can be sure. America will change, CHANGE BACK under Biden. Trump promised to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, and Biden will do everything possible to make America the spineless, even socialistic nation he and his Democrat allies want it to be. Be aware of that my fellow Americans. If Biden and the Democrats have their way, America will be socialistic, A SOCIAL STATE in four years. What a tragedy that would be.Donald Trump THE DONALD was arrogant. His personality was put–off. He showed so many times a significant disrespect for others. He was aloof, even selfish, possessed of an ENORMOUS EGO. He shot from the hip, said what he thought and felt, nothing held back. He at times became UNHINGED, very rarely scripted but always ready with verbal attack. He was strong, tough, independent, one–of–a–kind, probably never to be repeated. Donald Trump was never really a true Republican. Some thought him to be Libertarian but more appropriately INDEPENDENT. He had disdain for Democrats, but as well, so much of the Republican Party. He regarded many Republicans as RINOS, Republicans In Name Only. He worked with them when he could but departed from them perhaps more often. No President was ever like Trump and none to follow will ever be like him. Fox columnist Liz Peeks said this of Trump and his presidency:“It is hard to imagine that President Trump will soon leave office. His presidency has been so big, so full of energy and purpose, that it seems almost impossible that it will come to an end.”Peeks goes on to say that Trump supporters are angry, believe the election was unfair and fraudulent and that Biden and the incoming Democrats will do nothing to protect their interests. Many feel that it will be necessary to “take on” the liberal mob, whatever that means. Trump and his Administration, says Peeks, have faced “unprecedented opposition from the liberal media and dishonest Democrats.” An understatement to be sure. Peeks goes on to say the following:“For his supporters, patriots from all walks of life are fed up with political correctness and the censorious Left, the Trump presidency has been a breath of fresh air.” Indeed, an exceptional it has been in the pursuit, preservation and protection of American EXCEPTIONALISM. No President in our history will have the LEGACY which Donald Trump will have. THE DONALD was indeed a breath of fresh political air. Now we go back to POLITICAL BUSINESS AS USUAL. Four years from now, America will never be the same. I grieve for younger Americans who will never know the America and the lifestyles so many of us have known, and loved, and done our best to protect and defend. But, to live is to choose. America chose Biden, whether fairly or not, as the leader on the pathway to socialism. The day will come when Americans all will come to appreciate what Donald Trump was and did for America in a marvelous attempt to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. At times, Mr. President, you were hard to like and appreciate but I for one thank you for all you did for my country and the true America. I stand with 75–100 million other Americans with the hope that all the PROMISES YOU PERFORMED remain. WE LIKE YOU WILL FIGHT TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
