Why did Fox hosts battle Newt Gingrich over Leftist George Soros?
Something very strange happened on Fox News yesterday.
Fox host Harris Faulkner was in the middle of discussing the violence in the streets when former House Speaker Newt Gingrich laid out one contributing factor, reports TheHill.com.
Listen.
HARRIS: “Speaker Gingrich, I know you have a final thought for us.”
GINGRICH: “Yeah, look, the number one problem in almost all these cities is George Soros elected left-wing, anti-police, pro-criminal district attorneys who refuse to keep people locked up. Just yesterday, they put somebody back on the street who’s wanted for two different murders in New York City. You cannot solve this problem.
“And both Harris and Biden have talked very proudly about what they call ‘progressive’ district attorneys. Progressive district attorneys are anti-police, pro-criminal, and overwhelmingly elected with George Soros’ money. And they’re a major cause of the violence we’re seeing because they keep putting the violent criminals back on the street.”
Upset with Gingrich’s decision to link Leftist billionaire George Soros to the Black Lives Matter riots, listen to what co-host Melissa Francis said.
FRANCIS: “I’m not sure we need to bring George Soros into this.”
HARRIS: “I was gonna say you get the last word, Mr. Speaker.”
GINGRICH: “He paid for it. Why can’t we discuss the fact that millions of dollars…”
Marie Harf, a former Obama administration State Department staffer, sided with Fox co-host Francis in favor of the censorship of Newt Gingrich.
HARF: “No, he didn’t. I agree with Melissa. George Soros doesn’t need to be a part of this conversation.”
GINGRICH: “Okay. So, it’s verboten.”
At this point in the conversation, there was a long, awkward pause until Harris said this.
HARRIS: “Okay, we’re gonna move on. A historic day at the White House …”
Nearly 32,000 AFA supporters urge AG Barr to prosecute Netflix
Netflix and all those associated with the movie Cuties should be held accountable for distributing a film that promotes the sexual exploitation of minors and includes minors engaging in sexually explicit conduct.
The American Family Association applauded Republican Senator Ted Cruz of Texas for urging U.S. Attorney General William Barr to investigate Netflix for distribution of child pornography by airing Cuties.
While Netflix cancellations are reportedly spiking nearly eightfold above what is typical for the streaming service, it’s still not backing down.

Half million U.S. sodomite couples have “married”
Five years after the U.S. Supreme Court legalized sodomite faux “marriages” across the U.S., more than a half million households are made up of “married” homosexual couples, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, reports the Associated Press.
Of the 980,000 sodomite couple households reported in 2019, 58% were faux “married” couples and 42% were unmarried partners.
High school student sent home over T-shirt’s Christian message
In late August, Brielle Penkoski, a high school student, was reportedly sent home from Livingston Academy in Tennessee after she refused to change out of her t-shirt that stated, “homosexuality is a sin” in bold letters, reports Christian Headlines.
Her father, Rev. Rich Penkoski, who leads Warriors For Christ, told The Christian Post that his daughter had her First Amendment rights violated in standing up for biblical truth while the public school is pro-LHBT.
Pretty ironic in light of the numerous students wearing pro-homosexual rainbow messages and clothing. The Leftist double standard is alive and well.
Rev. Penkoski asserted, “If a Christian comes up there and repeats what the Bible says, they are seen as intolerant, they are seen as hateful. Simply saying ‘homosexuality is a sin’ is not hate speech. That’s what the Bible says. And we need to start preaching truthfully.”
The message on the shirt references 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 which asks, “Do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men … will inherit the kingdom of God.”
NFL Great Hershel Walker vs. Marxist Black Lives Matter
Herschel Walker, the former Georgia Bulldog, Heisman Trophy winner, and NFL great, posted a video on his Twitter account sharing his thoughts about learning that Black Lives Matter is led by “trained Marxists,” reports Fox News.
WALKER: “The other day I was listening to one of the founders of Black Lives Matter. And I heard her say that they are trained Marxists. I’m challenging every owner in the NFL, every owner of major league sports, every owner of stadiums, every leader in Washington, every church, I’m challenging every professional player, ‘Is this who you’re supporting?
“Because a trained Marxist tells you that they’re anti-government, they’re anti-American, they’re anti-Christian, they’re anti-everything. They’re saying it with their own mouths. When you talk about supporting BLM, are you supporting the group that said they are trained Marxists?”
In another Twitter video, Walker backed the police.
WALKER: “America we have to have to support our men and women in blue. Our police. We’ve had so many Chief of Police to step down, to resign. Do you know how difficult it is for anyone to become chief of police? Let alone a woman? It is time for this to stop America. We have to, have to get behind our people in blue. So, all the kids out there, white, brown — all the kids out there — to realize that all police are not bad.”
John MacArthur ready to do 6 months in jail for holding services
And finally, appearing on The Ingraham Angle with Fox host Laura Ingraham, California pastor John MacArthur of Grace Community Church said he’s willing to go to jail for holding indoor services in defiance of Democratic coronavirus health restrictions and that, if arrested, he’ll preach the Gospel there, too, reports ChristianHeadlines.com.
MacARTHUR: “We received a letter with the threat that we could be fined or I could go to jail for a maximum of six months. Of course see, you know, my biblical hero, apart from the Lord Jesus Christ, is the Apostle Paul. And when he went into a town, he didn’t ask what the hotel was like, he asked what the jail was like, because he knew that’s where he was going to spend his time.
“I don’t mind being a little apostolic. If they want to tuck me in a jail, I’m open for a jail ministry. I’ve done a lot of other ministries and haven’t had the opportunity to do that one. So, bring it on!”
MacArthur said, “I am so thankful that President Trump has told me personally that he supports the church as essential and the churches need to stay open. So, with the Constitution on our side and the president’s backing, we’re open.”
Acts 5:29 says, “I would rather obey God than man.”

How International Christian Concern helped abandoned young man
On New Year’s Eve of 2018, a Ugandan young man named Kadir placed his faith in Christ after hearing the Gospel during an overnight prayer gathering. The next day, his Muslim father abandoned the family, viewing Kadir’s newfound faith as a betrayal against the family. Only a few months later, his mother also left, leaving Kadir to care for his two younger siblings, reports International Christian Concern.
Kadir has since stepped up to support his siblings who were looking up to him. Furthermore, he rescued a young boy from the streets, bringing another mouth to feed into the family.
Thankfully, Kadir is skilled in making a local dish called chapati rolex, an egg-based dish wrapped in bread. International Christian Concern provided Kadir with the cooking equipment necessary to set up his own chapati shop so that he can financially support his family.
