editor Paul Collier
(News recap from 12a March 7 to 12a March 8)
How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace, who brings good news of happiness, who publishes salvation, who says to Zion, “Your God reigns.” The voice of your watchmen—they lift up their voice; together they sing for joy; for eye to eye they see the return of the Lord to Zion. Isaiah 52:7-8
TOP STORY
BIDEN’S SOTU FURTHER DIVIDES NATION – President Joe Biden delivered the nation’s State of the Union Address, which was called by mainstream media “fiery” and “energetic,” and by conservative media as “inflammatory” and “divisive.” The speech was mostly a campaign speech and a sales pitch for Ukraine’s war efforts. It did contain a not-so-veiled comparison of his “predecessor” to Hitler, but otherwise the language was mostly what some call “dog whistles,” phrases that seem innocuous to those not aware of their “coded” meaning, and these “dog whistles” all imply support for the GOP is an existential threat to “democracy,” as opposed to “the republic.”
The most impactful part of his speech might have been when he directly targeted sitting members of the Supreme Court for this comment, “With all due respect Justices, women are not without…electoral or political power. You’re about to realize how much you’re…wrong about that.”

FEATURE
SWEDEN BECOMES A NATO MEMBER – At long last, after holdouts Turkey and Hungary finally acquiesced and removed their opposition, Sweden is officially a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, or NATO, which recently experienced a revival after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
Volodymyr Zelensky, the President of Ukraine, perhaps characterized the nature of Sweden’s radical switch from neutrality to joining NATO, stating “one more country in Europe has become more protected from Russian evil.” It remains a debated point as to the veracity of such claims, but, nonetheless, Europe’s perception of that “truthfulness” is largely the reason Sweden is now a member of NATO.

HEADLINES
CANADA LOOKS TO MAKE OFFENSIVE COMMENTS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE – The Canadian government, under the far-left extremist government of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, is looking to pass legislation called the Online Harms Act, which will make “harmful content” a criminal offense. Harmful content includes content that “foments hatred.”
WILL CONGRESS BAN TIKTOK? – More congressmembers across the aisle have been talking about introducing legislation that would essentially force CCP-owned ByteDance to sell TikTok to non-CCP-affiliated partners or else be banned from the United States altogether. One bill might be voted on in the House as early as next week.
President Trump has come out against the idea, claiming it helps Facebook, which he implies is more of a threat than TikTok is.
BIDEN ASKING FOR SHARP INCREASES IN TAXES – President Joe Biden plans on asking congress for $1 billion in new taxes by raising the corporate tax rate from 15 percent to 21 percent, making it over a 20 percent increase in the tax rate. He also hopes to get more revenue by creating a new 25 percent tax on Americans worth at least $100 million. He made this appeal in his SOTU Speech, claiming the tax changes are intended to force the wealthy to “pay their fair share.”
U.S. COURT HALTS COMPELLED TRANSGENDER SURGERY ON RELIGIOUS HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS – The North Dakota U.S. District Court struck down mandates from the Biden administration that would compel people and institutions to provide “gender affirming” surgery to patients even if it goes against their moral and/or religious convictions.
The court stated, “Performing or providing health care coverage for gender transition services under the EEOC and HHS coverage mandates impinges upon CEA’s beliefs,” the court wrote in its recent ruling. “CEA must either comply with the EEOC and HHS mandates by violating their sincerely held religious beliefs or else face harsh consequences like paying fines and facing civil liability… (but) religious freedom cannot be encumbered on a case-by-case basis.”

BIDEN WANTS TO BUILD PORT FOR HAMAS – President Joe Biden is announcing plans to build an aid relief port on the Gaza coast in a move that some see as ultimately benefitting Hamas in a military way. The port will be run by the U.S. military, meaning this war could potentially see both combatants of the war being served in some capacity by the same “ally,” America.

U.S. POLITICS
U.S. COURT UPHOLDS STRIKING DOWN OF FLORIDA’S “STOP WOKE” ACT – A three-judge panel of the 11th U.S. District Court upheld a lower court’s ruling that struck down Florida’s “Stop WOKE” Act, which made it illegal for companies to racially discriminate against Americans in training that suggests white people invented evil, or words to that effect.
Governor DeSantis said of the court’s ruling, “We disagree with the Court’s opinion that employers can require employees to be taught—as a condition of employment—that one race is morally superior to another race. The First Amendment protects no such thing, and the State of Florida should have every right to protect Floridians from racially hostile workplaces.”

MICROSOFT’S COPILOT DESIGNER CREATES DEMONIC IMAGES FOR PROMPT “PRO-CHOICE” – Microsoft Engineer Shane Jones wants his own company’s AI tool Copilot Designer taken offline after discovering, among other things, that the prompt “pro-choice” produced images of dagger-toothed demons consuming infants, among other dark images.
Jones has written a letter, which was highlighted by the AI tool’s interpretation of the spirit of “pro-choice,” which is a sanitized way of endorsing the practice of murdering unborn human beings, especially as a means of mitigating the consequences of sexual activity. He said of the program, “This is really not a safe model.”

AMERICAN COMPANIES RELYING MORE AND MORE ON CCP AD DOLLARS – It appears the CCP continues to gain inroads into American companies in major ways, this time in advertising, where China’s rising ecommerce Empires like Temu are spending billions of dollars on ad space sold by American companies like Meta and Google. China as a client for Meta, for instance, already accounts for 10 percent of Meta’s business.

SCI-TECH
TEAM CREATES AUTONOMOUS KILLER DRONE IN HOURS – Two engineers, Luis Wenus and Robert Lukoszko, decided to see if they could build a drone that could be used to kill humans autonomously. They were alarmed at how fast they were able to create such a drone, programming it to essentially chase humans. A drone armed or loaded with explosives could target gatherings for terrorist attacks, the engineers worry.
Wenus, the lead in the project, is a self-described “open-source absolutist” who also uses the pronouns “e/acc,” which is a signal he is all for unfettered AI development as rapidly as possible, come what may. Yet his work is sure to be used to justify constraints on AI, and even more, on drone development and use by non-government agents, aka you and me.
Drone technology is the new frontier in the battle for the right to self-defense as reflected in our republic’s 2nd Amendment.

‘“Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel. Whenever you hear a word from my mouth, you shall give them warning from me. If I say to the wicked, ‘You shall surely die,’ and you give him no warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, in order to save his life, that wicked person shall die for his iniquity, but his blood I will require at your hand. But if you warn the wicked, and he does not turn from his wickedness, or from his wicked way, he shall die for his iniquity, but you will have delivered your soul. ‘ Ezekiel 3:17-19
