Nigerian Muslims killed 21 Christians in Benue State

On November 1st and 2nd, Fulani Muslim herdsmen killed six Christians in Benue State, Nigeria after slaughtering 15 Christians in a nearby village two days prior, reports Morning Star News.

Terwase Avande, a local resident, said they “began shooting at Christian residents.”

And Paul Adetsav, a community leader, said, “The Fulani herdsmen keep attacking us almost on a daily basis, killing Christians at will and igniting fire on our houses and places of worship.

“Crops we planted on our farms too have been destroyed by the armed herdsmen. Hunger has become an epidemic, killing us and our children since we have nothing to eat.”

More than 400,000 members of the community have been displaced as a result of incessant attacks.

According to Open Doors, Nigeria is the sixth most dangerous country worldwide in which to live as a Christian.

Luke gave wise counsel in Acts 14:22. “…remain true to the faith.”

Argentina’s first Day of Evangelical Protestant Churches

Argentina celebrated its first Day of Evangelical Protestant Churches on October 31 of this year.

The country passed a law back in April to commemorate the day in memory of when Martin Luther published the 95 theses, sparking the Protestant Reformation.

Fifteen percent of Argentina’s population is Evangelical, numbering six million.

Pastor Christian Hooft, the president of the Christian Alliance of Evangelical Churches of the Argentine Republic, said, “We celebrate the 5 solas of the monk Martin Luther: ‘Christ Alone, Scripture Alone, Grace Alone, Faith Alone, and Glory be to God Alone,’ which were an emblem that remained and strongly influenced culture, knowledge, and science.”

Joe Scarborough hypocritically chastises the Democratic Party

Joe Scarborough, host of MSNBC’s Morning Joe, spent much of the first hour of November 6th pontificating about where the Democrats went wrong. His focus was not their tactical moves, but their broader failure to understand and connect with the American people regarding their concerns, reports Newsbusters.

SCARBOROUGH: “So, it's time for the Democrats to look in the mirror and figure out exactly what went wrong.”

However, Scarborough —a Democrat flunky himself — has personified the very problems of which he complains.

SCARBOROUGH: “There was some reluctance to talk about the things that were concerning Americans that really mattered this year — illegal immigration, the mass border crossings. That was something that concerned Hispanic voters. It's something that concerned Black voters, something that concerned all voters.

“We've been talking about the transgender ad. Thirty thousand times it ran over $30 million. This is going to be a problem in the three states that you need. And yet, they just didn't respond to it because they were afraid to respond to it because it might offend some small subset of their base.

“They have lost working-class America. The question is, How long until they understand that this isn't just about tax cuts? This isn't just about economics. This is about cultural markers that matter greatly in these people's lives.”

Joe Scarborough sounds like the late Rush Limbaugh, doesn’t he?

But Mark Finkelstein of Newsbusters wrote, “There has been no show more slavishly devoted to parroting Democratic themes than Morning Joe. There's a reason why Joe Biden made Morning Joe his favorite show, calling on his staff to watch it, and becoming phone buddies with Scarborough.

“And when others were calling out Biden's undeniable decline, it was Morning Joe which claimed that Ol' Joe was ‘sharp as a tack.’"

White House Press Secretary blames bad economy on COVID pandemic

Democrats are trying to figure out how President-elect Donald Trump won in a landslide.

On November 7th, Karine Jean-Pierre, the White House Press Secretary, didn’t blame the bad economy on the inflationary policies of Biden-Harris who printed up money to give away in stimulus checks. Instead, she blamed the bad economy on the COVID pandemic.

JEAN-PIERRE: “One of the things that occurred was the pandemic. It caused disruption. It caused the supply chain to be disrupted, and caused the economy to be turned upside down. We are, in fact, leading the world on the economy.

“That doesn't stop the fact that there has been a political toll for incumbents. That is something that I'm telling you as a data point to share because we know that you guys would have questions.”

Late-night comedians meltdown over Trump win

The late night comedians, who are by and large more committed to the Democratic Party than making America laugh, sounded as though they were attending the funeral of America.

In fact, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel actually broke down in tears over Trump’s victory.

Listen.

KIMMEL: “Let's be honest, it was a terrible night last night. It was a terrible night for women, for children, for the hundreds of thousands of hard-working immigrants who make this country go, for health care, for our climate. It was a terrible night for poor people, for our allies in Ukraine, for NATO. I mean, I guess it was a bad night for everyone who voted for him, too. You just don't realize it yet.”

And CBS’s Steven Colbert tried to comfort his liberal audience.

COLBERT: “How are you doing? If you watch the show regularly, I'm guessing you're not doing great. Yeah. Me neither.

“It happened again. And in this democracy, the majority has spoken. They said they don't care that much about democracy. The first time Donald Trump was elected, he started as a joke and ended as a tragedy. This time, he starts as a tragedy. Who knows what he'll end as.”
