The chaos in El Salvador before Bukele was never an accident, and the chaos in Haiti today is not an accident either. The media told you that the gangs were just poor boys who went bad on their own, but that story falls apart the moment you ask one simple question. Where does a poor sixteen year old boy living in a slum with no job and no money get an AK-47 and an AR-15 and a Glock and thousands of rounds of ammunition, and where does he get a brand new Toyota Hilux and motorcycles and speedboats and drones and encrypted phones and bulletproof vests and night vision goggles, and who pays his monthly salary and pays for his safe house and pays his lawyer when he is arrested and pays the police and the judge and the prison guard to look the other way, and who pays his family when he dies? A poor boy cannot afford even one bullet, so someone else is paying for all of it. That someone is the multimillionaires and the billionaires and the wealthy entities who profit from chaos, because chaos is a business and a broken country is the most profitable business in the world. When a country is in chaos its land becomes cheap so they can buy it, its gold and its drugs and its resources can be stolen without anyone asking questions, its government becomes weak so they can control it, and its people become so scared that they obey anyone who promises them a little safety. In El Salvador the gangs were not fighting the system, the gangs were the system, paid to keep the poor terrorized so the poor would never rise up and demand a better country. In Haiti it is the same story, the gangs are not independent, they are funded and armed and protected by rich families and foreign businessmen and foreign NGOs who want Haiti to stay weak so they can keep stealing its ports and its gold and its labour. And when a man like Bukele comes and says I will lock up all the gangs and end this in two years, who attacks him? It is the same people. The same billionaires who fund the gangs fund the media that calls Bukele a dictator, the same wealthy entities who arm the gangs fund the NGOs that cry human rights for murderers, the same people who profit from chaos fund the political voices that hate real help in Haiti and sabotage anyone who is actually capable of doing it. Look at the pattern and it becomes clear, when a gang kills a hundred innocent people there is silence, but when a leader kills a hundred gang members there is outrage. When a gang rapes children there is no campaign, but when Bukele locks up rapists there is a global campaign against him. That is because the media is not independent, it is owned by billionaires, the NGOs are not independent, they are funded by billionaires, and the politicians are not independent, they are bought by billionaires. They do not want Haiti saved and they did not want El Salvador saved, they want them broken, because a broken country is cheap to buy and easy to control. Bukele exposed them, he proved that gangs can be destroyed in months if you have the will, and that terrified them, because if El Salvador can be fixed then Haiti can be fixed, and if Haiti can be fixed then Africa can be fixed, and if Africa can be fixed then the billionaires lose their business. That is why they demonize Bukele, that is why they sabotage Haiti, that is why they hate any man who actually helps the poor.

Agree. You can't believe in the Qur'an, which denies freedom of religion, and then swear to support and defend the freedoms enshrined in the US Constitution-- the two documents are contradictory. Thoughts?
Hot take of the day: The Bible should be the only book used to swear in public officials. If they can’t do that, then they aren’t fit for service in the United States.

I take the concerns about plagiarism in my written work seriously. Honesty and integrity matter deeply to me, and not correctly crediting others’ work, in any setting, falls short of those standards.  I’m committed to full accountability and am walking closely through this with my pastor, church elder board, and the Apologetics Canada Board of Directors. Right now, my family’s priority is caring for our young daughter as she recovers at home following her recent hospitalization. I’m very grateful for the support and prayers we’ve received. I will be stepping back from further public comment while the Apologetics Canada Board conducts its thorough review.

In Haiti, they told the Haitian people the Clintons came to save Haiti. After the earthquake in 2010, the world watched Port au Prince crumble, and then the saviors arrived. Bill Clinton became the UN Special Envoy to Haiti. Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State, controlling America's aid. And the Clinton Foundation was right there, raising money in Haiti's name. Husband approving the projects. Wife controlling the money. Foundation collecting the donations. That was a family business. The world pledged 13.5 billion dollars. America pledged 4 billion. It was supposed to rebuild a nation. Instead, it rebuilt bank accounts in Washington. Less than 40 percent of that money was ever spent inside Haiti. Only 2 percent of US aid ever reached Haitian organizations. The rest went to American contractors, foreign NGOs, and the UN: a circle of friends getting rich off someone else's tragedy. Caracol Industrial Park, their great flagship, their promise of a New Haiti. Three hundred million dollars of taxpayer money, built on prime farmland. Farmers were kicked off their land to make room for it. They promised 65,000 jobs. What Haiti got was 10,000 low-wage sewing jobs for a South Korean company. Bill and Hillary cut the ribbon and smiled for the cameras. Haitians called it a sweatshop. They promised hundreds of thousands of homes. They spent half a billion dollars on housing, and they built 6,000 houses. Years later, millions were still sleeping in tents, with no water, no electricity, and no roads, while the Foundation kept fundraising. A company called VCS Mining, with a Clinton Foundation donor sitting on its board, suddenly got one of the rarest things in Haiti: a gold mining permit. In a country where those permits are almost impossible to get. Donate to the Foundation, get a deal in Haiti. That was the deal. Haitians don't call this mismanagement. They call it theft. Billions came in, cholera brought in by UN troops killed 10,000 people, and Port au Prince still has no reliable water, power, or roads. The Clintons left with their reputation intact. Haiti was left poorer. This is how the liberal elite works. They find a poor Black country, use it as a charity poster, fly in, take photos with crying children, raise billions, hand the contracts to their friends, and then blame corruption in Haiti when nothing gets built. The real corruption was never in Haiti. It was in Washington, and it was in the Clinton Foundation. If a Republican had done this, it would be called a crime. Because the Clintons did it, they called it philanthropy. Haiti didn't need saviors. Haiti needed to be left alone to rebuild with its own money. The Clintons didn't save Haiti. They looted Haiti. t.me/fmazhindu

I’m speechless
DISGUSTING: The U.N. has just elected the Islamic Republic of Iran to its committee responsible for shaping the agenda on human rights, women’s rights, and counterterrorism. 144 countries voted in favor. The United Nations has become a complete joke.

When I was Muslim, I never noticed what the Quran DOESN'T have. Namely, exact dates, exact places or exact titles or names you can check. Bro, when you read the Quran’s stories there is literally zero chronology, almost no geography, kings called only “Pharaoh,” events floating in no particular year. It is incredibly vague. You cannot get answers to questions like: Where did the story happen? When? Under whom? The text doesn’t say. You can’t check it, which conveniently means you can’t check it. Now, contrast that to the Bible, read the opening of Luke 3: “In the FIFTEENTH YEAR of the reign of TIBERIUS CAESAR — PONTIUS PILATE being governor of JUDEA, HEROD being tetrarch of GALILEE, his brother PHILIP tetrarch of ITUREA and TRACHONITIS, and LYSANIAS tetrarch of ABILENE, during the high priesthood of ANNAS and CAIAPHAS…” SEVEN historical anchors in one sentence. An emperor, a governor, three rulers with their exact territories, two high priests. And people HAVE checked, for centuries, often trying to break it. Skeptics mocked Luke’s “Lysanias of Abilene” as an error… UNTIL an inscription naming Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene turned up. Pilate was called legend by some… until the Pilate Stone was dug up at Caesarea in 1961 with his name and title carved in it. Luke 1:3-4 tells you why: “Having followed all things closely… that you may have CERTAINTY.” Certainty. That’s the offer of the Bible. The Quran floats above history where nothing can touch it. The Bible planted its flag in checkable ground and said: dig. I dug. It’s still standing. Praise the Lord and His mighty God-Breathed scripture.

The Palantir billionaire-backed Cicero Institute recently met with Austin city officials to promote their anti-homeless agenda, which includes arresting homeless people and forcing them into institutions. Homeless Austinites need housing, not handcuffs. austinchronicle.com/news/cit…

NEVADA HOUSE DISTRICT 2 - IMPORTANT At 3:27 AM Eastern 34,957 votes were removed from Democrat Teresa Benitez-Thompson and 56,329 were removed from Republican David Flippo. This was a net loss of 21,282 votes from Flippo. Who, apparently, lost the race by 18,896. So we have an example of vote reductions in the Election Night Reporting whose magnitude would have changed the race. I hope my Nevada friends can let Mr. Flippo know and start asking hard questions in District 2!

.@compassion International just sued the whistleblower who exposed their failure to act on more than 25,000 suspected grooming cases in sponsor letters. Not to fix the problem. Not to protect the children. But to claim “reputational harm” and silence the man who tried for months to get them to do something. This is what prioritizing the brand over the kids looks like. Disgusting. roysreport.com/compassion-in…

I think it’s wild that both parties are still freaking out over the midterm results but no one is talking about the strike in Iran.
