SUPER EL NIÑO, IS THE TERMINATOR TO BLAME?
In a 2023 paper, Robert Leamon of NASA and the University of Maryland (Baltimore County) made a striking prediction: The next El Niño would arrive in 2026. He based it on the Terminator, a magnetic event on the sun that ends one solar cycle and ignites the next. Averaging the past five solar cycles into a “standard cycle” and projecting it forward, Leamon found that El Niños follow about five years after a Terminator. The most recent termination event happened in December 2021, putting the next El Niño squarely in 2026. His model says nothing about the strength of this El Niño, but the timing is spot-on.

Chinese Intellectual Property Theft Zeroes in on AI and Advanced Chips 
While Chinese intellectual property theft has plagued the United States and the West for decades, recent efforts by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to zero in on artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced microchips could prove particularly disastrous for American economic and national security. Congress must act decisively to stay ahead of Beijing. CCP-backed entities are now stealing AI labs’ intellectual property on an industrial scale. “Leveraging tens of thousands of proxy accounts to evade detection and using jailbreaking techniques to expose proprietary information,

Prophetic Pieces: As Putin Ups The Ante In The Arms Race, Russia Considers Providing Refuge To Top Iranian Leaders

Nonprofit Crackdown: Feds Target the Liberal Dark Money Infrastructure 
A dual-pronged investigative and regulatory pincer movement is moving to close on the nonprofits and “dark money” networks that have long anchored the American left’s political and cultural infrastructure. From Congress to the Justice Department and the IRS, the Trump administration and allied lawmakers are examining the anonymity and tax-exempt status enjoyed by some of the most influential progressive organizations in the country. The latest development came on Thursday when the House Oversight Committee issued a subpoena to the Sixteen Thirty Fund, the massive non-profit hub managed by Arabella Advisors.

SSPX responds: ‘Excommunicated? But by whom? By those who kneel before Pachamama?’
The Society of Saint Pius X responds to the Holy See’s recent statement regarding excommunication if episcopal consecrations are carried out on July 1. The novelty that appears in this declaration from Rome is that the episcopal consecrations scheduled for July 1st will not be “accompanied by the corresponding papal mandate.” Coming from a Prefect of a Vatican dicastery, this remark is quite clearly an attempt to convey to the Society that Pope Leo XIV will refuse to authorize the consecrations.

Deadlocked At Square Zero: Very First Line Of Iran’s Latest Proposal ‘Unacceptable,’ Trump Says
Tehran and Washington are truly not just back to square one, but it’s as if no rounds of dialogue – direct or indirect – have even taken place. It’s more like being back at square zero – and the US President has just acknowledged it. President Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One Friday while departing Beijing that even the very first first sentence of Iran’s latest proposal was “unacceptable” and blamed the Iranians for backtracking on the nuclear issue.

The UFO Phenomenon Is Not Proof Of Extraterrestrials, But Evidence Of A Larger Spiritual Deception
Many people in our churches have noticed the recent increase in news stories, government hearings, military footage, and online discussions regarding UFOs-UAPs/aliens. Add to that the recent (unverified) report of a “Pastor’s meeting” with government officials discussing these topics, and it is understandable why some believers are taking notice—especially those who hold to a biblical view of the rapture of the church and the return of Christ. I have personally awaited this day to begin addressing UFOs/aliens out of necessity and not speculation.

Canada’s Assisted Suicide Program Could Include Children And The Mentally Ill
Canada’s MAID program is the subject of ongoing concern among anti-globalist movements across the western world. The assisted suicide system kills around 15,000 or more Canadians each year and is quickly expanding to include more and more people who are not terminally ill. Almost all assisted suicide programs are created by liberal governments and all of them are initially promoted as a way to “end the suffering” of people who are close to death anyway. However, this is merely the first stage of the greater goal, which is to normalize the government sanctioned killing of almost anyone for any reason.

Re-Arranging The Global Game-Board ‘Bigly’.
“Trump has done so much damage to libtardery that the Democrats will need a decade of uninterrupted power to undo it, which they’re not going to get.” If you learned anything from this week’s extravaganza in Beijing, it is that Donald Trump is aggressively re-aligning world relations so that the USA does not end up one of the losers in the global resource scramble that lurks darkly behind all current events. China does not intend to be an eventual loser, either, though it has lost a lot of traction lately. The Eurolands are certainly the main losers, Iran is the poster boy for that. It could go either way for them, soon, and rather sharply. If Iran’s jihad-happy leaders just quit FAFOing, they have the chance to re-enter the global community as an advanced modern economy with a comfortable standard of living.

Defra wants to replace native white Britons with anything but white to “diversify” the countryside

The UFO Phenomenon Is Not Proof Of Extraterrestrials, But Evidence Of A Larger Spiritual Deception
Bible-believing Christians should view the UFO phenomenon not as evidence of benevolent extraterrestrials, but as part of a spiritual deception preparing the world for end times. Could this help explain the rapture of the church after believers disappear? This would be ideal for the Evil One to keep the focus from Christ and to national gov’ts, maybe a world leader – antichrist.

Minnesota ‘Culture Of Fraud’ Enabled More Than $9 Billion In Misused Taxpayer Funds, Panel Says
A “culture of fraud” infected Minnesota state agencies, resulting in more than $9 billion in taxpayers’ money squandered, a new legislative report says. “We finally pulled the curtain back—and the public is grateful,” state Rep. Kristin Robbins, chair of the Minnesota House Fraud Prevention and State Agency Oversight Committee, said May 13 during a session that summarized 16 months of investigative work. Many fraudsters “came to believe that fraud was tolerated and paid in a big way,” according to a report that Robbins released at the meeting. The report summarizes the committee’s attempts to dissect how state agencies became so mired in fraud. Testimony from dozens of witnesses, including state employees and whistleblowers, demonstrated that Gov. Tim Walz’s administration neglected “basic due diligence” to protect taxpayers’ money,

Biden FBI Quietly Hid Trump Prosecution Files For Potential Post-2028 Case
Another trove of newly unearthed Biden-era files suggest that the FBI attempted to retain purported evidence related to its prosecution of President Donald Trump until 2030 — when he would presumably be out of office. The documents, reported Tuesday by Just the News, add to a growing body of records that have detailed the breadth of the aggressive actions targeting Trump, Republican lawmakers and conservative organizations connected to the 2020 election. “One of the key ‘Case Closing’ documents obtained by Just the News – originating from the FBI’s Washington Field Office’s CR-15 team – was dated a couple of weeks into Trump’s second term, on February 5, 2025, when many holdover FBI agents and leaders were still in place.
