When we pray the Our Father, we are invited to pray with “filial boldness” as children of God. Fr. Mike emphasizes that we are God's adopted sons and daughters, and so because of that, we are able to call him “Abba, Father.” He also emphasizes that because of this adoption we are called to “continual conversion and new life.” Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 2777-2785.

The Steel Porcupine is an unforgettable cinematic experience that exposes Russia's campaign of extermination in Ukraine, and the Ukrainian people's spirit to resist and prevail. It follows soldiers, volunteers and people who decided that survival meant resistance, not submission.Created by the makers of the acclaimed To the Zero Line, this is another film about humanity, that clearly states there is no such thing as neutrality when war crimes are being committed systematically by Russia, and on a scale in Europe only comparable to World War Two. Set to a haunting soundtrack featuring music by Philip Glass, and blending rare archival footage with original material, it is an impactful work of art and storytelling, as well as being informative.----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain----------TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND:Save Ukrainehttps://www.saveukraineua.org/Superhumans - Hospital for war traumashttps://superhumans.com/en/UNBROKEN - Treatment.

I had planned to take this week and next off but I can't leave y'all hanging without your fix on Christmas! This week I'm bringing you a special mini fix episode about the Christmas Truce of 1914. This remarkable ceasefire that happened spontaneously all along the Western Front during the first winter of World War I has shocked and inspired the masses ever since. But despite tons of eyewitness accounts and tangible evidence like letters, autographs, and photos, there are many who refuse to believe that the Christmas Truce ever happened. So, what do you think?

Through the Catechism, we learn more about the Lord's Prayer and how it should be included in our personal prayers as well as in community during the liturgy of the Mass. In giving us the Our Father, Jesus models how we are to use this prayer to speak directly with the Father. Fr. Mike drives home that we receive the words to pray and also receive the Holy Spirit when saying this prayer. Together, the words and the Holy Spirit enable us to pray like Christ and become more like him. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 2765-2772.

Tonight On Ground Zero: Mobius Stripper The United States is reportedly the number one user of OnlyFans, a company run by a modern Magnus Hirschfeld named Leonid Radvinsky, according to the 2025 end-of-year report. In the end-of-year 2025 search-result report from Pornhub, run by another Hirschfeld since 2023, named Solomon Friedman, searches for “femboy,” general LGBTQ, and “transgender” exploded in popularity. According to the data: “' Trans threesome' up 67 per cent. 'Trans amateur' rose 49 per cent. Interestingly, this is the same type of material that was targeted for burning in 1930s Berlin by the rising nationalist movement, motivated more by citizens than even Nazism. The Institute for Sexual Science was responsible for pushing every manner of niche sexuality, gender ideology, and pornography onto the public, including children. Their speciality was transgenderism and sex-change surgeries. Considering the background of the people responsible for this perversion, then and today, are we heading for another Berlin book burning as we go around the Möbius strip of history? Tonight, Ryan Gable fills in for Clyde Lewis and speaks about - Mobius Stripper.

Episode Summary: The air war over Vietnam in 1972 was incredibly intense, with campaigns like Linebacker I and II defining the fight. Join us as we chat with Ace Colonel Chuck DeBellevue, USAF (Ret.) as he recounts the bravery and unique abilities of Major Bob Lodge, a fighter pilot from the famed 555th Fighter Squadron who made the ultimate sacrifice over North Vietnam. Lodge's contributions were legendary—developing cutting edge tactics, harnessing new technologies, and personally taking the fight to the enemy in ways that were truly above and beyond. This conversation stands as a special tribute.

An episode that was a long time in the making. Cathy is my wine mentor and a great friend. I am a big fan of the modern wines coming out of South Africa. So after a very long time away from the podcast, I was delighted when Cathy said yes to this interview. Cathy has been a Master of Wine for 20 years, the first from the African continent to become an MW. After a few years on the IMW committee, mainly heading the educational committee, Cathy served as the Chair of the Institute of Masters of Wine for two years, finishing her role just over a year ago, in Autumn 2024. She regularly lectures and judges wines internationally. For the last 20 years, Cathy has been involved with producing the fantastic Platter's Guide to the Wines of South Africa. First, as a taster and about 12 years ago, as an Associate Editor, alongside the Editor, her Husband, Philip Van Zyl. More recently, Cathy has taken the role of Director of The Old Vine Project. She has started a company called Master-Classes, with her friend and business partner, Natasha Hughes MW, where they run seminars preparing candidates and students who are already on the programme to the demands of the Master of Wine studies. Their site can be reached at www.master-classes.org In our conversation, we chatted about her role as Associate Editor of the Platter's Wine Guide, Her involvement with the Old Vine Project, her latest venture of Master Classes, and things she recommends to look out for from South Africa's vineyards in 2026! As it is a week before Christmas, I was curious as to what would grace Cathy and Philip's table. Enjoy and happy holidays! Moshe

As a maritime cybersecurity researcher, consultant, and practitioner with nearly fifty years of experience, Gary walks us through the ins and outs of cybersecurity at sea, automated identification systems (AIS), and AI's current and future role in maritime operations. What is AIS spoofing, and why is it dangerous? What are the unique challenges posed by cybersecurity at sea? Is the maritime industry ready for artificial intelligence integrations? “AI is going to [present] really incredible opportunities for us moving forward. I think however, it is a tool that is not well understood in general by people who are not specialists. And particularly in the maritime industry, we're going to have to get a lot better at understanding the capabilities and the pitfalls,” Gary said. Join us for this and more on this episode of Hack the Plan[e]t. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast represent those of the speaker, and do not necessarily represent the views and opinions of their employers. Hack the Plant is brought to you by ICS Village and the Institute for Security and Technology. The podcast and artwork embedded on this page are from Bryson Bort, which is the property of its owner and not affiliated with or endorsed by Listen Notes, Inc.

Durven dromen, plannen, investeren. Eigenlijk wil Peter Wennink van ons land één groot PPS-project maken: publiek-private samenwerking. Het doet denken aan 50 jaar geleden, toen op 1 december 1975 Wim Leeman de eerste sleutel kreeg van een groepje tijdelijke houten huizen, het Bivak, in het nieuwe Almere. Nederland bouwde een nieuwe stad op drooggelegde zeebodem. Een nieuwe omgeving in een nieuw landschap in een nieuw land. Letterlijk een poldermodel. Nu, 50 jaar later, wil Rob Jetten maar liefst tien nieuwe steden, Henri Bontenbal overal 'een wijkje erbij' en Wennink wil het hele land op de schop nemen. Lukt dat? En wat leren zij, wij en u van Almere? Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger nemen u mee naar de toekomst van gisteren en de noodzaak, uitdaging en inspiratie om in het komende nieuwe jaar weer vooruit te durven kijken. *** Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken. Word ook vriend van de show! Heb je belangstelling om in onze podcast te adverteren of ons te sponsoren? Zend ons een mailtje en wij zoeken contact. *** In de jaren van wederopbouw en woningnood vonden de grote politieke families elkaar in een maatschappelijk ideaal waarin beginselen als 'volksverheffing', 'eigen verantwoordelijkheid', 'bezitsvorming' en 'zelfstandig leven' tot uitdrukking kwamen. Toen de ergste nood gelenigd was, ontstond de ambitie van een herontwerp naar een modern, welvarend en geëmancipeerd land. Grote projecten en nieuwe locaties als de Maasvlakte, de Bijlmermeer, Zoetermeer, Nieuwegein en Purmerend werden aangepakt. Daar hoorde Almere bij, ‘de zuidweststad’ in de nieuwste polder. Het begon met een nostalgisch imitatie-Hanzestadje en een ontwerp van een verzameling losse kernen, à la Los Angeles. Maar dat concept veranderde allengs tot een meer urbaan geheel. Almere groeide naar 100.000 bewoners in 1995, meer dan 232.000 inwoners nu en tijdens het kabinet-Balkenende IV werd zelfs gedacht aan expansie naar 350.000 in 2030. Maar het deels verkrotte Amsterdam herleefde en werd een onverwachte concurrent voor de nieuwe stad. Almere 'verzoetermeerde'. De samenwerkingsplannen van de Vrije Universiteit en Hogeschool Windesheim voor een kenniscentrum sneefden en het idee om de stad met de Floriade op de kaart te zetten werd een dure flop. Niet drie miljoen, slechts 600.000 bezoekers vonden de weg naar de stad in de polder. In het ambitieuze advies van Peter Wennink heeft Almere een bijzondere plek gekregen. In een gloednieuw Institute for Advanced Materials and Metrology (IAMM) moeten ‘A.I., materialenwetenschap en metrologie in één geïntegreerde omgeving worden samengebracht’, schrijft hij. Daarmee zal een essentiële bouwsteen voor de halfgeleiderindustrie en versnelling van de materiaalontwikkeling worden gevormd, waardoor technologische doorbraken in de nieuwste kennis en toepassing ervan mogelijk worden. De High Tech Campus van Almere - op de locatie waar ooit die Floriade had moeten schitteren – biedt zo een extra ruimtelijke aanvulling op de kennishub van Brainport. Het is geen toeval dat IMEC, ASM International en ASML bij de initiatiefnemers horen. De hightech toekomst van ons land wordt daarmee een soort coproductie van Leuven, Eindhoven en Almere. Hiermee kan alsnog de ambitie van een stevig kenniscentrum van de grond komen. Windesheim slaat alsnog de handen ineen met de Universiteit Twente voor ICT- en AI-opleidingen aan diezelfde campus. Ook wordt een LLO-initiatief gestart om mensen bij- en om te scholen naar de IT-sector, waar de behoefte aan talent nijpend is. Almere heeft natuurlijk veel pluspunten voor de gedurfde dromen van Wennink. Er is ruimte voor studentenhuisvesting en voor woningen voor toptalent uit de hele wereld dat naar het IAMM zal trekken. Ook voor de uitbouw van zo'n kennishub en nieuwe startups en scale-ups biedt de polder alle ruimte. Waar Brainport nu al moet woekeren met plekken voor de cruciale kennisinfrastructuur kent Almere de luxe van kansen voor expansie. Geen wonder dat Jeroen Dijsselbloem op de vraag in Betrouwbare Bronnen naar de mogelijkheden voor een vijfde Technische Universiteit als perspectief bij 'Wennink', dat direct bevestigde Daarmee is ineens de kans aanwezig - net als in de wederopbouwjaren de verschillende politieke stromingen vanuit 'Draghi' en 'Wennink' met nieuwe accenten uit hun beginselen - zoals talentbevordering, kenniseconomie, Europese integratie, ondernemerschap, de kwaliteit van het bestaan – voor ons land een wenkend perspectief mogelijk maken. Het kan immers wel en het kan ook echt anders. Net als toen. *** Verder lezen Rapport-Wennink Almere begon met 13 volwassenen en 9 kinderen in 8 houten huizen Tenttonstelling: het Bivak Nog meer over Almere *** Verder kijken In de polder komt de nieuwe stad Almere (Polygoonjournaal 1 januari 1973) Allereerste bewoners Almere (Polygoonjournaal 1976) Andere Tijden: wonen in Almere Presentatie rapport-Wennink (2025) *** Verder luisteren 547 – Knopen doorhakken, hervormen en stevig investeren: het formatie-advies van Jeroen Dijsselbloem en Pieter Duisenberg https://omny.fm/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/547-knopen-doorhakken-hervormen-en-stevig-investeren-het-formatie-advies-van-jeroen-dijsselbloem-en-pieter-duisenberg 525 – Wat Brainport Eindhoven ons leert en hoe we onze economie nóg toekomstbestendiger kunnen maken https://omny.fm/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/525-wat-brainport-eindhoven-ons-leert-en-hoe-we-onze-economie-n-g-toekomstbestendiger-maken 446 - Doe wat Draghi zegt of Europa wacht een langzame doodsstrijd https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/7af41d6c-1463-4010-94df-a702f6f5cf08 512 – Hoe onderwijs, bedrijven en overheden samen de arbeidsmarktkrapte bestrijden https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/da589da5-3d17-468f-9fcf-536388414e67 431 - Kabinetsformatie: Handelsland Nederland staat op het spel https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/8f019a55-5189-4ed9-972a-3987b4de72c6 422 - Een eigen huis, een plek onder de zon - woningnood toen en nu https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/abaeec39-90bb-4c8c-a969-63653742e18e 371 - Banen op zoek naar mensen.

Diving into the Lord's Prayer, we look at the origin, meaning, and significance of this prayer. The Catechism reveals the Our Father as "the summary of the whole Gospel" as it includes all that we believe. Fr. Mike helps us understand that this prayer focuses our hearts on the Father and prioritizes our desires. As we begin this prayer in the Father's name, we know who we are addressing, and we know we can trust the Lord as our Father. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 2759-2764.

INVESTING IN HUMAN INTELLECT OVER ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE Colleague Dr. Sabayashi Pal. Given an unlimited budget, Dr. Pal would prioritize human resource development over new telescopes, proposing a space study institute in Africa to train experts. He argues that while AI is a useful tool, education is essential for humans to interpret data and appreciate the machinery rather than being replaced by it. NUMBER 14 1962

Why You Should Listen:  In this episode, you will learn about the role of microglial activation in complex, chronic illness. About My Guest: My guest for this episode is Dr. Jonathan Streit.  Jonathan Streit, DC, CPN, IFMCP is a Functional and European Biological Medicine practitioner.  He has dedicated his professional life to helping patients with complex chronic illnesses.  His passion for this type of work grew from walking with his wife through her own battle with Epstein Barr and Lyme disease.  Since then, Dr. Streit has focused his career on applying and advancing these approaches to address the deeper roots surrounding chronic illness.  He's the co-founder of the Institute for Restorative Health, where he and his team use their BioRestorative Method™ a comprehensive approach that blends European Biological Medicine, Functional Medicine, neurology, nutrition, and terrain-based healing principles.  Dr. Streit has trained with internationally recognized leaders in healthcare, completed postdoctoral work through the American Institute of Postural Neurology, and teaches pathology and functional medicine for the University of Integrative Health doctoral program.  With nearly two decades of clinical experience, he has supported patients across a wide range of chronic health challenges.  To bring these insights to the many still struggling without answers, he wrote "Silent Spark: An Unseen Force Fueling Chronic Illness and How to Heal", a book that sheds light on the often-overlooked deepest roots keeping people sick. Key Takeaways: What are microglia and their role in chronic illness? What are the M1 and M2 states of the microglia? What symptoms or conditions may be associated with chronically activated microglia? What cytokines and interleukins do microglia produce? Is there any testing available to explore microglial activation? What are the most common triggers of the microglia? Can the microglia remain activated long after the threat is gone? What are the primary roles of the microglia? What conditions are associated with under-pruning or over-pruning? Does microglial activation overlap with Mast Cell Activation Syndrome? Does the limbic system play a role in microglial activation? How has COVID further complicated the microglial conversation? What is the role of the microglia in neurodegenerative conditions? Does the external environment play a role in triggering the microglia? What is the gut-brain-microglial axis? How do hormones impact the microglia? Can EMR/EMFs be a trigger for the microglia? What is the role of chronic stress in microglial activation? Do the microglia play a role in pain syndromes or seizures? What treatment options are available to support the microglia?

ChristianaCare researchers make a breakthrough in lung cancer care.The breakthrough reverses chemotherapy resistance, and the hope is this research will help develop the same results for other cancers in the future.In this edition of Enlighten Me, Delaware Public Media's Joe Irizarry talks with Kelly Banas, the lead author of the study and associate director of research at the ChristianaCare Gene Editing Institute about the importance of the findings and what might come next.

In this episode, I'm joined by Shana Peschek, Executive Director of the Machinists Institute, for a timely conversation about what it really takes to build a manufacturing workforce that can meet the moment. Workforce is one of the AMCC “Big Six” pillars of a functioning regional manufacturing ecosystem, and across the country, we're falling short. Shana brings a practitioner's lens to this challenge, drawing on her experience building apprenticeship and training models to support advanced manufacturing talent pipelines.We talk about how the Machinists Institute was founded by IAM District 751 to serve aerospace, manufacturing, and industrial trades; how Shana scaled the organization from an idea into a statewide—and now national—workforce platform; and why apprenticeship is fundamentally an educational modality, not a niche labor program. Along the way, she breaks down persistent myths around apprenticeship, explains how employer-driven curriculum keeps training relevant, and shares how the Institute partners with unions, non-union employers, community colleges, workforce boards, and community-based organizations without duplicating efforts.If you care about reindustrialization, aerospace and defense manufacturing, apprenticeships, or how regions can build real workforce capacity,this is a must-listen. Shana's work shows what systems leadership looks like in practice, and why workforce development can't be siloed from economic development if we're serious about competing globally, way to go Shana!

Fr. Mike reviews this section of the Catechism, summarizing the battle of prayer and the prayer of the hour of Jesus. We are reminded that prayer is active, and we must engage in grace. The Catechism goes on to state that, “We pray as we live because we live as we pray.” In this, we see that God meets us where we are and wants us to pray always. Finally, Jesus' prayer to the Father in the Garden of Gethsemane exemplifies humility, filial trust, honesty, and perseverance; modeling how we are to pray to the Father. Today's readings are paragraphs 2752-2758. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

To celebrate Melvyn Bragg's 27 years presenting In Our Time, five well-known fans of the programme have chosen their favourite episodes. Guy Garvey, lyricist and lead singer of the band Elbow, has selected the episode on eclipses, first broadcast in December 2020. Solar eclipses are some of life's most extraordinary moments, when day becomes night and the stars come out before day returns either all too soon or not soon enough, depending on what you understand to be happening. In ancient China, for example, there was a story that a dragon was eating the sun and it had to be scared away by banging pots and pans if the sun were to return. Total lunar eclipses are more frequent and last longer, with a blood moon coloured red like a sunrise or sunset. Both events have created the chance for scientists to learn something remarkable, from the speed of light, to the width of the Atlantic, to the roundness of the Earth, to discovering helium and proving Einstein's Theory of General Relativity. With Carolin Crawford Public Astronomer based at the Institute of Astronomy, University of Cambridge and a fellow of Emmanuel College Frank Close Emeritus Professor of Physics at the University of Oxford And Lucie Green Professor of Physics and a Royal Society University Research Fellow at Mullard Space Science Laboratory at University College London Producers: Simon Tillotson and Julia Johnson Spanning history, religion, culture, science and philosophy, In Our Time from BBC Radio 4 is essential listening for the intellectually curious. In each episode, host Melvyn Bragg and expert guests explore the people, ideas, events and discoveries that have shaped our world. In Our Time is a BBC Studios production

The Reagan National Defense Survey has again illuminated the MAGA world: MAGA Republicans are not isolationists, nor are the majority of Americans. Despite what those in Washington assert Americans believe, the latest polling reveals that 64 percent of Americans support U.S. leadership on the world stage, with eight in ten self-identified MAGA Republicans driving that figure. So why do we see this dissonance on the Right? Who gets to speak for “America First,” and what does it really mean? Why are figures within Trump's ranks convincing him that his base opposes intervention and a strong foreign policy? The latest polling reminds us that the American people know who our enemies are, and they are telling us how they want to deal with them. Who's going to listen?Roger Zakheim serves as the Washington Director of the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute. He previously practiced law at Covington & Burling LLP where he led the firm's Public Policy and Government Affairs practice group. Before joining Covington, he was General Counsel and Deputy Staff Director of the U.S. House Armed Services Committee. Mr. Zakheim also served as Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense where he supported the department's policies and programs related to Iraq and Afghanistan coalition affairs. Mr. Zakheim also currently serves on the Board of Directors of the United States Institute of Peace and is a Commissioner on the Congressional Commission on the National Defense Strategy of the United States.Read the transcript here.Subscribe to our Substack here.

In this episode of the ChinaPower Podcast, Randy Schriver and Mike Kuiken join us to discuss key findings from the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission's 2025 Annual Report to Congress, which they helped draft. They examine how Beijing is increasingly using the PLA for political signaling, how China's treatment of space as a warfighting domain marks a notable shift, and how China's dominance across key supply chain choke points creates structural vulnerabilities for the U.S. and global markets. The conversation also covers several other recommendations from the report, including proposals related to Taiwan's role in supporting U.S. posture initiatives and deterrence in the Indo-Pacific.  Randy Schriver is the Chairman of the Board of the Institute for Indo-Pacific Security (IIPS) and a partner at Pacific Solutions LLC. Prior to this, he served for two years as the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Indo-Pacific Security Affairs during the first Trump Administration.  Mike Kuiken is a Distinguished Visiting Fellow at Stanford University's Hoover Institution and spent over two decades in the Senate.   Both are commission members of the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission.

Looking at the prayer of the Hour of Jesus, we learn from the Catechism that it “embraces the whole economy of creation and salvation, as well as his death and Resurrection.” This prayer summarizes everything: “God and the world; the Word and the flesh; eternal life and time; the love that hands itself over and the sin that betrays it; the disciples present and those who will believe in him by their word; humiliation and glory. It is the prayer of unity.” Fr. Mike reiterates that this prayer from the Son to the Father allows us to pray as sons and daughters of Christ and give glory to the Father. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 2746-2751. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

The United States has raised concerns with the EU for years on these matters without meaningful engagement or basic acknowledgement of U.S. concerns. In stark contrast, EU service providers have been able to operate freely in the United States for decades, benefitting from access to our market and consumers on a level playing field. Some of the largest EU service providers that have hitherto enjoyed this expansive market access include, among others: — Accenture — Amadeus — Capgemini — DHL — Mistral — Publicis — SAP — Siemens — Spotify If the EU and EU Member States insist on continuing to restrict, limit, and deter the competitiveness of U.S. service providers through discriminatory means, the United States will have no choice but to begin using every tool at its disposal to counter these unreasonable measures.

[SOURCE – AUGUST 19, 2025] As originally reported in August 2025 {SOURCE}, a group of far-left human rights advocate sent a letter to 150 U.S. colleges and universities asking them to disable the CCTV systems to protect “free expression and academic freedom across the country,” because “the Trump administration has launched an aggressive campaign against US academic institutions.” The motive for the request to disable CCTV systems as stated: “Right now these tools are facilitating the identification and punishment of student protesters, undermining activists' right to anonymity––a right the Supreme Court has affirmed as vital to free expression and political participation.” {SOURCE} The letter from ‘Fight For The Future‘ (August, 2025) came after an earlier campaign by the same group seeking to stop the use of facial recognition cameras on college campuses. {SOURCE} Source: theconservativetreehouse.com https://twitter.com/DataRepublican/status/2001107948312133776?s=20   network.

The university has not released an official statement explaining the deletion, but online discussions and news coverage point to it as an effort to scrub digital traces of Kharbouch during the ongoing FBI manhunt and investigation. His X (formerly Twitter) account has also been taken down, fueling theories of a cover-up by the university, media, or authorities to control the narrative around his pro-Palestine activism and alleged radical views. As of now, federal authorities have released images and a timeline of the suspect’s movements but have not publicly confirmed Kharbouch’s involvement, though some outlets report he has fled and remains at large with a $50,000 reward offered for information leading to his arrest. This is a summary of his (now deleted) manifesto: In Mustapha Kharbouch’s 2024 manifesto, “I Hear The Voice of My Ancestors Calling: From The Camps to The Campus,” published by the Institute for Palestine Studies, the author reflects on his role in the Brown University Gaza Solidarity Encampment amid the ongoing conflict in Gaza. As a third-generation stateless Palestinian refugee raised in Lebanon, Kharbouch draws from his family’s history of displacement during the 1948 Nakba to frame his activism. The piece begins with lyrics from an adapted “Ancestor Song,” symbolizing a call to action and intergenerational resilience. He describes participating in non-violent protests, including an eight-day hunger strike by 19 students, arrests of 61 comrades for demanding university divestment from apartheid and illegal occupation, and organizing encampments with hundreds of participants engaging in rallies, teach-ins, art, film screenings, and chants. Kharbouch explores themes of “radical love” for land and people in Gaza, collective grief over the genocide, and solidarity as a revolutionary practice rooted in Palestinian revolutionary traditions that reject colonialism, carcerality, and imperialism. He critiques passive hope, instead advocating for active, decolonial hope through community-building and bearing witness to atrocities, like the invasion of Rafah. Influenced by queer feminist approaches (citing scholars like Sarah Ihmoud and Robin Kelley), he emphasizes transforming anger and despair into sustainable world-making, while questioning intergenerational betrayal and the cynicism inherited from survival under oppression. Ultimately, the manifesto affirms the encampment’s role in a broader student rebellion, linking campus actions to global Palestinian liberation and calling for continued, unyielding commitment despite challenges. https://twitter.com/EndWokeness/status/2001028141851013528?s=20 https://twitter.com/JamesHartline/status/2001090533746467327?s=20 https://twitter.com/EndWokeness/status/2001089445194235926?s=20 https://twitter.com/ProvidenceRIPD/status/2001345847133643062?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E2001345847133643062%7Ctwgr%5E8764cf1453bd57445310069de900ad0f6828d697%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thegatewaypundit.com%2F2025%2F12%2Fbreaking-providence-police-release-photos-person-proximity-brown%2F https://twitter.com/nypost/status/2001047137308590081?s=20 https://twitter.com/TheSCIF/status/2000985628029403418?s=20 https://twitter.com/amuse/status/2001347329585012818?s=20 https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/2001000454042607728?s=20 DOGE Trump Suspends ‘Tech Prosperity Deal' With UK Over Censorship and Regulations by ‘Online Safety Bill' Hurting US Tech Companies  Trump has suspended the ‘Tech Prosperity Deal' with the UK over its censorship push. The Telegraph reported: “The White House paused the tech prosperity deal amid concerns the Online Safety Act, which regulates online speech, will stifle American artificial intelligence companies, the Telegraph understands. The law allows the British government to levy large fines on tech giants it deems have facilitated hate speech.” After the rise of artificial intelligence, companies like OpenAI or xAI can face huge fines – harming their growth and giving China an edge in the AI race. “'The perception is that Britain is way out there on attempting to police what is said online, and it's caused real concern', a source with knowledge of the decision to suspend the deal said. ‘Americans went into this deal thinking Britain were going to back off regulating American tech firms but realized it was going to restrict the speech of American chatbots'.” Source: thegatewaypundit.com Geopolitical https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/2001217017001685167?s=20    of our Assets, and many other reasons, including Terrorism, Drug Smuggling, and Human Trafficking, the Venezuelan Regime has been designated a FOREIGN TERRORIST ORGANIZATION. Therefore, today, I am ordering A TOTAL AND COMPLETE BLOCKADE OF ALL SANCTIONED OIL TANKERS going into, and out of, Venezuela. The Illegal Aliens and Criminals that the Maduro Regime has sent into the United States during the weak and inept Biden Administration, are being returned to Venezuela at a rapid pace. America will not allow Criminals, Terrorists, or other Countries, to rob, threaten, or harm our Nation and, likewise, will not allow a Hostile Regime to take our Oil, Land, or any other Assets, all of which must be returned to the United States, IMMEDIATELY. Thank you for your attention to this matter! DONALD J. TRUMP PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA In 1970, as National Security Advisor, Kissinger was briefed on and helped shape US oil import policies toward Venezuela following a visit by Venezuelan President Rafael Caldera. These policies, announced in June 1970, focused on long-term petroleum development and were positively received by Venezuela, but they represented unilateral US adjustments rather than a negotiated deal.  In 1972, Venezuela terminated a longstanding reciprocal trade agreement with the US that included concessional tariff rates on Venezuelan oil imports. Kissinger was informed of this as National Security Advisor, and the US considered maintaining low tariffs to avoid cost increases, but this was a termination process, not a new deal.   Venezuela effectively took control of oil fields and assets from US companies on two major occasions, though the processes involved nationalization and expropriation rather than outright theft without legal frameworks or compensation. These actions shifted operations from private foreign (including US) entities to state control under the Venezuelan government.In the 1970s, Venezuela nationalized its entire oil industry, which had been largely developed and operated by foreign companies since the early 20th century. On January 1, 1976, the government officially took over, creating the state-owned Petróleos de Venezuela, S.A. (PDVSA). This affected major US firms like Exxon (formerly Standard Oil), Gulf Oil, and others, which had held concessions. The companies were provided compensation as part of the process, and it was generally seen as an expected transition in global oil politics at the time, without major disruptions to US supply. In 2007, under President Hugo Chávez, Venezuela escalated state control by mandating that foreign oil projects in the Orinoco Belt (a massive heavy oil reserve) convert to joint ventures where PDVSA held at least a 60% stake. Companies like Chevron complied, but ExxonMobil and ConocoPhillips refused, leading to the government expropriating their assets. International arbitration tribunals later ruled these actions unlawful, awarding ExxonMobil about $1.6 billion and ConocoPhillips over $8 billion in compensation (though Venezuela has contested and delayed payments). This has been a point of ongoing tension, with US firms pursuing Venezuelan assets globally to enforce the awards. These events did not involve taking oil fields directly from the US government but from American corporations with investments in Venezuela, reflecting broader shifts toward resource nationalism. https://twitter.com/WarClandestine/status/2001087786879795546?s=20 War/Peace Zelensky: If Putin rejects peace plan, US must give us weapons The Ukrainian leader issued the warning as Russia said it would not drop its claims to land it believes to be its own  So Zelensky, NATO EU DS rewrote the plan knowing Russia wouldn’t accept it.  Source: thetimes.com Zelensky is stealing the election before it begins The overstaying Ukrainian leader has made a show of agreeing to hold a vote – but his preconditions make a mockery of it   The often-heard claim that Ukraine cannot hold presidential elections in wartime, by the way, is badly misleading, and a thoroughly politically motivated misrepresentation of the facts: In reality, the Ukrainian constitution only prohibits parliamentary elections in time of war.

That is merely a question of political will, not legality.  Zelensky and his fixers are planning to shift the whole presidential election online.

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth directed all War Department department heads and principal staff assistants to “take immediate action to recognize and reward [the] very best” of the department's civilian workforce with “meaningful monetary awards consistent with the relevant existing civilian awards authorities for each pay system,” according to a memorandum for senior Pentagon leadership first obtained by The Daily Wire. The distribution of bonuses — which could reach up to $25,000 — is also in line with the Trump administration's broader efforts to make the federal government function more like a private-sector business.

The massive 2010 sale of US uranium deposits to Russia approved by Hillary Clinton and rubber-stamped by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) – after figures linked to the deal donated to the Clinton Foundation? Turns out rank-and-file FBI investigators thought there was enough smoke to launch a criminal investigation, but internal delays and disagreements within the DOJ and FBI ultimately caused the inquiry to lapse, newly released records reveal.   The Uranium One transaction – involving the sale of a Canadian mining company with substantial U.S. uranium assets to Russia's state-owned nuclear firm Rosatom – became a flashpoint during Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign. Critics argued that then-Secretary of State Clinton, a member of CFIUS, helped approve the deal while donors connected to Uranium One made large contributions to the Clinton Foundation.  The newly released documents suggest that the circumstances surrounding Uranium One were never fully investigated, leaving unresolved questions about how a strategic U.S. asset came under Russian control – and whether potential criminal conduct went unexamined due to internal delays and legal disputes.

Ex-Marine planned attack in New Orleans that would ‘recreate’ Waco, officials say Plans to “carry out an attack” in New Orleans were thwarted after an ex-Marine was arrested while on the way to the Louisiana city with guns and body armor in the car, according to court documents obtained Tuesday by The Associated Press. Micah James Legnon, 28, was charged with threats in interstate commerce. Federal authorities said they had been surveilling Legnon due to ties to an extremist anti-capitalist and anti-government group. Four members of the group were arrested Friday in the Mojave Desert, east of Los Angeles, as they were rehearsing a foiled plot to set off bombs in Southern California on New Year's Eve, authorities said.  Legnon believed it was time to “recreate” Waco with an attack in New Orleans, authorities said in court documents. They pointed to a Dec. 4 chat message by Legnon written under the alias “Kateri The Witch” the day after Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents arrived in New Orleans. Legnon's alias had “she/her” written beside it, but jail records referred to Legnon as male.

In fact, he admitted to having a “very possessive” personality. “No, she meant that I'm — you see, I don't drink alcohol. So everybody knows that — but I've often said that if I did, I'd have a very good chance of being an alcoholic. I have said that many times about myself, I do. It's a very possessive personality,” Trump told the Post. “I've said that many times about myself. I'm fortunate I'm not a drinker. If I did, I could very well, because I've said that — what's the word? Not possessive — possessive and addictive type personality. Oh, I've said it many times, many times before,” he added.

In this Advent episode of the Podcast for Cultural Reformation, Dr. Joe Boot, Dr. Michael Thiessen, and Pastor Nate Wright continue their discussion of Think Christianly by examining why the divinity of Jesus Christ is essential to the Christian faith and the gospel itself. Drawing on John 1, the early church fathers, and the historic battles against heresies such as Gnosticism and Arianism, the hosts explain why Christ must be fully God and fully man to accomplish salvation. They explore the significance of the incarnation, the Council of Nicaea, and why reducing Jesus to a moral teacher undermines Scripture, creation, and redemption. This episode calls Christians to recover both the awe and the doctrinal clarity needed to confess Christ as the eternal Word made flesh—God with us, for our salvation.

The Catechism teaches about the effectiveness of prayer and how to persevere in prayer. Fr. Mike explains that although God already knows what we need before we ask, he wants us to pray, and he extends us dignity by allowing us to pray and ask for what we need. In the process of prayer, we are able to learn the heart of the Father, grow closer to him, and become more like him. The Catechism goes on to state that when it comes to prayer, it is always possible, a vital necessity, and inseparable from the Christian life. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 2738-2745.

What motivates our prayer? Do we see God as our “divine genie,” or do we look to him as our Father? We learn that the most common temptation in prayer is a lack of faith. Another major temptation is acedia or sloth. In the face of these temptations of presumption and discouragement, we must respond with filial trust in God our Father, the giver of all good gifts.
