The presidential debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden did not meet media expectations. This is somewhat surprising given Joe Biden's decline, but many pundits thought he would do better. Democrats are freaking out now that the American people as a whole got to see Biden's mental constraints on the national stage. Donald Trump outperformed Biden, but what does this mean? Was this a ploy by Democrats who want to replace Biden at the convention? What about Trump's answers on abortion. Should they concern anti-abortion voters? Jon talks about all this and more.

Jon shares thoughts on doxxing, including advice for anons, why doxxing should be discouraged, and why doxxers should be subject to public ridicule when they bring the Left's hammer down on ordinary people. #dox #doxxing #doxxed

Voddie Baucham discusses his new book "It's Not Like Being Black." Book Details: IT’S TIME FOR THE CHURCH TO STAND UP AND FIGHT BACK AGAINST SEXUAL IDENTITY IDEOLOGUES AND THEIR UNHOLY ANNEXATION OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT. We are living in crazy times. Biological men are competing and winning against biological women in sports. The newest Supreme Court justice declined to answer the simple question: “What is a woman?” Record numbers of young Americans now identify as transgender. Sexually explicit materials permeate schools. Pedophiles have rebranded as “minor-attracted persons.” And now sexual identity and gender ideology advocates have hijacked the civil rights movement, co-opting its success for their own insidious purposes. They have sold the lie that sexual identities are equivalent to race and that the fight for the rights of “sexual minorities” is the final frontier in the struggle for civil rights. To make matters even worse, many evangelical leaders, eager to appease the culture, have gone along to get along—even excusing and redefining sinful behavior as a mere “sexual identity.” In It’s Not Like Being Black, pastor and bestselling author Voddie T. Baucham Jr. equips Christians to fight back against this pervasive sexual identity ideology and stand firm in biblical truths, giving them the courage to: Remain vigilant and protect their children from the onslaught of this insidious ideology Contend for biblical truth in the marketplace of ideas Boldly celebrate, cherish, and defend true marriage Willingly suffer as strangers and aliens for holding fast to what the Bible actually says Now is the time for the Church to act. Christians cannot contradict Scripture, discard thousands of years of tradition, subvert the English language, and deny fundamental reality without paying a heavy price. 00:00 Pride Month in Zambia 03:58 It's Not Like Being Black 09:58 Degeneracy not Rainbows 14:02 The Heart of Degenerate Normalization 17:39 Civil Rights Movement Compromised 22:12 What about friends who disagree? 29:24 Handling "Trans" Children 34:30 TGC and SBC Split 39:11 Questions 44:50 Hope

Find this essay in printed form at https://americanreformer.org/2024/05/the-inescapability-of-identity-politics/ While the term “identity politics” belongs to the Left with all its baggage, separating identity from politics is ultimately impossible because of human nature. People want groups to belong to. In a healthy society, national, regional, familial, and spiritual identities help fulfill this longing.
