Russell Brand sentenced to 10-year prison sentence
A well-known British comedian named Russell Brand has been sentenced to 10 years in prison for engaging in non-consensual sexual sin.
Two years ago, Brand was baptized in the River Thames. He has been interviewed concerning his “faith” by Sean Hannity and Megyn Kelly.
Throughout his trial, Brand was holding online prayer meetings with his followers, and as of the last few weeks, he’s still marketing his book entitled How to Become a Christian in 7 Days.
Some have questioned the sincerity of his recent profession of faith. Time will tell.
South Africa voted conservative
The South African elections over the weekend took the nation decidedly towards the right.
The African National Congress lost 15 percent of support — now holding only 31 percent of the parliamentarian seats. The radical left MK Party lost 4 percent, now holding only 6 percent of the seats. Several center-to-right parties gained 18 percent.
The trend for South Africa and Brazil has been a rise for the right.
Fewer Congressmen in our nation’s capital
After this midterm election, there will be fewer men leading in the U.S. Congress than any other time on record — only 376 out of the 535. That accounts for a drop to 70 percent male leadership, down from 94 percent in 1990, and 98 percent in 1970, reports CNN.
Male leadership in national parliaments around the world has also dropped off from 90 percent in 1990 to 72.5 percent in 2026. Plus, the number of female heads of state has increased from 3 to 28 since 1970.
Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa accepts female ordination
The Calvary Chapel flagship in Costa Mesa, California, once pastored by Chuck Smith and featured in the movie Jesus Revolution, has moved to accept the ordination of women as pastors, reports ChurchLeaders.com.
This came a week ago in the Sunday morning service when Lead Pastor Char Broderson made the announcement.
BRODERSON: “Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa believes and practices the ordination of both men and women to pastoral ministry as a recognition of the priesthood of all believers.”
The leftist version of Calvary Chapel has formed what they have called another association called the Calvary Global Network.
Quoting from 1 Timothy 2:11-14 –“Let a woman learn in silence with all submission. And I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, but to be in silence. For Adam was formed first, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman, being deceived, fell into transgression.”
California swapped out Christian faith for Muslim faith
The State of California has now officially swapped out the Christian faith for the Muslim faith.
Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom has signed Assembly Bill 2017. Two Muslim holidays, Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, will become official California holidays, reports The Daily Signal.
According to the law, public schools may now be “acknowledging and celebrating the meaning and importance” of these Islamic religious holidays. Previously, California replaced the terms “Christmas” and “Easter” with the labels “Winter” and “Spring.”
NASA will invest $10 billion to build base on Moon
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration has announced a $10 billion program for building a permanent base on the Moon, reports Space.com.
The government program is inviting Elon Musk’s SpaceX, Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin, and six other aerospace companies to compete for the contracts.
Polish mass shooting claims six lives
A mass shooting in Poland left six dead and more than a dozen injured over the weekend.
The massacre took place in the Main Market Square in Krakow, a major tourist attraction. According to a spokesman following the attack, “Many pieces of weapons and ammunition were found in his vehicle.”
The 24-year-old suspect, Michał Oksiński, allegedly killed three members of his own family before the attack. Four men and two women died in the shooting, including a Briton and an Austrian.
Another Planned Parenthood mill bites the dust
And finally, here’s a bit of good news!
A Planned Parenthood murder mill in Manitowoc, Wisconsin is set to permanently close before the end of the month.
Since the beginning of 2025, more than 60 Planned Parenthoods have closed or consolidated.
Dan Miller of Pro-Life Wisconsin celebrated. He said, “The pro-life people of Manitowoc have been holding a peaceful vigil at this location for years. Today, God answered their prayers. With this closing, no more Manitowoc babies will die and no more Manitowoc mothers will cry because of abortion. When you defund Planned Parenthood, this is what happens. To God be all the glory.”
In Psalm 35:17, David asked, “Lord, how long will You look on? Rescue me from their destructions, my precious life from the lions.”

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney vs. Conservative Pierre Polievre
Canada is looking to open its borders wide in the coming years.
Prime Minister Mark Carney announced a new budgetary plan for the country that involves bringing in over two million immigrants in the next three years!
Conservative opponents are blasting the decision, especially as Canadians continue to struggle finding work and solid wages.
Pierre Poilievre, the leader of Canada’s conservative party, exclaimed, “There are corporate power brokers [who] want to use the labor to drive down wages and charge more rent, and they’ll profit by continuing to destroy the working class. And we want exactly the opposite: less immigration, [and] controlled [so we] bring in only the people who can contribute, and only in the numbers for which there is healthcare jobs and housing available.”
Breitbart reported, “[Canada] already includes roughly 8.3 million subsidized migrants — and a declining number of jobs. In the last three months, Canada lost 114,000 jobs.”
The debate about Flock cameras and privacy
As fears about automated license plate readers and Flock cameras are coming to a head for many voters, the office of the Attorney General is working to dismiss these issues.
Attorney General Todd Blanche pointedly stated, “If you’re asking whether I support law enforcement reading license plates. Yes, as every single citizen in this country should. I’m not suggesting that privacy doesn’t matter. To the contrary. But what I am suggesting is that the technology around license plate readers does not affect the privacy of American citizens.”
The problem? Citizens across the country have already voted against these methods of surveillance en masse, believing them to be tools that encroach on their privacy.
Veronika Kyrylenko pointed out in The New American, “Modern Automated License Plate Recognition networks do considerably more than read individual license plates. They automatically record vehicle descriptions, locations, and timestamps, building searchable databases that authorities can use to reconstruct movements across multiple jurisdictions.”
