‘Office’ Actor Rainn Wilson Admits Hollywood Hates Christians

(Abdul–Rahman Oladimeji Bello, Headline USA) Rainn Wilson took to Twitter over the weekend to share his concerns about the anti-Christian bias he believes is evident in modern Hollywood, a reaction to some episodes of HBO Max’s The Last of Us. 

As reported by The Daily Wire, the post-apocalyptic show was created based on video game content with the same name. The show managed to stick to the original content and storyline of the video game for most parts. However, viewers pointed out that David, a villainous character in the storyline, was made out to be a pastor only in the show. 

In the 8th episode, Ellie, the show’s main character, comes across some survivors led by a cannibal who continually quotes the scriptures. At the end of the episode, David, the character who is also a pastor, tries to rape Ellie. He eventually met his drastic end as she killed him in self-defense. 

In reaction to this controversial show, Rainn wrote on Twitter, “I do think there is an anti-Christian bias in Hollywood. As soon as the David character in ‘The Last of Us’ started reading from the Bible I knew that he was going to be a horrific villain. Could there be a Bible-reading preacher on a show who is actually loving and kind?”

Knowing Wilson to be at the forefront of leftist propaganda, many of his followers on the platform were shocked to see him take such a stand on the current Hollywood reality. However, Wilson was not the only one who had this reaction to the show. Many other Twitter users agreed with the assessment on the anti-Christian bias in Hollywood, including Daniel Garza, LIBRE’s Initiative president. 

“Defamation of Christianity has become the most unoriginal and tired clichés in movie/TV series storylines,” Garza wrote. “Its prevalence is much more than a bias against an entire people, it is meant to undermine faith and position the secular-minded as only ones with altruistic intentions.”

Putin Sending Captured U.S. Weapons to Iran

(Jacob Bruns, Headline USA) The Biden administration has spent the past year giving hundreds of millions of dollars worth of weaponry to the Ukrainians while ignoring domestic crises including a recession and an invasion at the southern border.

However, President Joe Biden’s warmongering may be far more than a waste of U.S. resources—it may also be helping to empower other longtime U.S. enemies who could create geopolitical instability in the years to come.

Russia has begun sending captured U.S. weapons to Iran—the biggest benefactor of President Joe Biden‘s disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal—where the weapons will presumably be reverse-engineered and repurposed for Iranian ends, CNN Politics reported.

According to the report, Russia has captured numerous, high-end weapons systems and sent them to Iran.

Putin has “flown the equipment to Iran to dismantle and analyze, likely so the Iranian military can attempt to make their own version of the weapons,” CNN said, citing unnamed sources.

“Russia believes that continuing to provide captured Western weapons to Iran will incentivize Tehran to maintain its support for Russia’s war in Ukraine,” it added.

Such disasters have already happened on multiple occasions in the past several decades.

In the 1970s, Iran created the Toophan anti-tank guided missile, which was reverse-engineered from the American BGM-71 TOW missile.

Iranians also captured a U.S. manufactured drone in 2011, reverse-engineering it to create a new drone, which they have used to spy on Israel.

According to Jonathan Lord, a senior fellow and director of the Middle East security program at the Center for a New American Security, these past successes on Iran’s part indicate that they have the capacity to do the same thing with the newer technology.

“Iran has demonstrated the capability to reverse-engineer US weapons in the past,” he noted.

“They reverse-engineered the TOW anti-tank guided missile, creating a near-perfect replica they called the Toophan, and have since proliferated it to the Houthis and Hezbollah,” he continued. “Iran could do the same with a Stinger, which could threaten both civil and military aviation throughout the region.”

Lord also suggested that the weapons could be effectively used to threaten Israeli sovereignty in the Middle East.

“A reverse-engineered Javelin could be used by Hamas or Hezbollah to threaten an Israeli Merkava tank,” he said. “In the hands of Iran’s proxies, these weapons pose a real threat to Israel’s conventional military forces.”

The shipping of weapons to Ukraine has also been problematic for America, however, as the U.S. military faces a massive weapons shortage with few prospects of manufacturing capacity increases in the horizon.

Occupy Democrats: Jeffrey Epstein was Good Judge of Character

(Ken Silva, Headline USA) Deceased sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein may have been an intelligence asset who ran an international sexual blackmail operation—but at least he didn’t like Donald Trump.

So says the political organization Occupy Democrats, which revealed its thoughts on the matter Saturday in reaction to a new story about Epstein’s ties with Trump.

The new story from Business Insider reported that Epstein stopped hanging out with Trump because he thought Trump was a “crook.” This goes against the widely reported narrative that Trump ended his acquaintanceship with Epstein and kicked him out of Mar-a-Lago in 2007 for harassing the daughter of a member.

The source for Business Insider’s story is Epstein’s brother, Mark Epstein, who said he viewed an interview footage between former White House advisor Steve Bannon and Epstein from 2017. At the time, Bannon was conducting filmed interviews with the now-dead financier.

“Jeffrey showed me the link to one of these interviews,” Mark Epstein reportedly said. “And in that interview, Jeffrey said he stopped hanging out with Trump when he realized Trump was a crook.”

Reacting to the rumor that Epstein was the one to break off his ties to Trump, Occupy Democrats tweeted on Saturday that “Epstein may have been an evil predator, but he was a perceptive judge of character.”

Occupy Democrats deleted the tweet by the next day, replacing it with one that says, “Evil recognizes evil.” However, nearly every reply to the tweet references the previous, deleted one.

The outrageous Occupy Democrats tweet has led to parodies such as this one, which has been viewed more than 100,000 times.

Occupy Democrats’ endorsement of Epstein’s character judgment is the organization’s latest scandal. In September, the group was reportedly found funneling over a quarter of the donations it received into a “consulting” company owned and directed by the founders of the publication. According to The Post Millennial, founders Omar and Rafael Rivero paid $250,000 in donor to Blue Deal LLC—a company founded and controlled by them.

Occupy Democrats also faces a defamation lawsuit from Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., after it falsely promoted a story claiming she’s a former prostitute.

Youngkin Calls for Gender-Neutral Bathrooms in CNN Town Hall

(Molly Bruns, Headline USA) At a town hall hosted by CNN, Gov. Glenn Youngkin, R-Va., announced the need for gender neutral bathrooms in his state and pushed the idea of “accommodation” for students who believe they are transgender.

An audience member, Nico, who identifies as a transgender man, asked the governor if he believed women would be comfortable with masculine-presenting females using the women’s restroom.

“Look at me,” Nico said. “I am a transgender man. Do you really think that the girls in my high school would feel comfortable sharing a restroom with me?”

Youngkin started his response by thanking Nico for coming and speaking on the issue, and praising the child’s dad for supporting the transition.

The governor then stated that making everyone comfortable would simply require providing additional gender neutral bathrooms.

“There are lots of students involved in this decision,” he added. “What’s most important is that we try very hard to accommodate students. That’s why I have said many, many times—we just need extra bathrooms in schools. We need gender neutral bathrooms so people can use a bathroom that they, in fact, are comfortable with.”

Historically, Youngkin ran on a platform of parental rights and fought against gender ideology and critical race theory’s invasion into the school system.

Youngkin’s primary point of concern has been parental notification if their children are considering transitioning. He constantly emphasizes the importance of family decision making, and approved several legal measures in that vein.

“[P]arents have a fundamental right to be engaged in their children’s lives,” Youngkin said. “And, oh, by the way, children have a right to have parents engaged in their life. And we needed to fix a wrong… children don’t belong to the state. They belong to families.”

Twitter users seemed surprised at the governor’s seeming departure from this pattern, calling him a “republican in democrat drag.”

Oscar Winner Credits Sexual Degeneracy for his ‘Creativity’

(Ezekiel Loseke, Headline USA) Daniel Scheinert, the co-director of Everything Everywhere All at Once, credited transvestism, disturbing blood and gore scenes, and sexual perversion, with fostering his creativity during his acceptance speech at the Academy Awards.

He dedicated his award to “the mommies,” and specifically thanked “our moms,” whilst naming his parents “Ken and Becky.”

Thanking one’s mom and dad when winning an award is normal, but Scheinert’s thanks was anything but common.

“Thank [you for] not squashing my creativity,” he said to his parents. This refusal to destroy his creativity came “when [he] was making really disturbing horror films,” and “[making] really perverted comedy films.” Scheinert reported that his parents enabled him to “dress [in] drag as a kid.”

Scheinert also made the most political statement of the night, according to Breitbart News.

He asserted that his aforementioned transvestism “is a threat to nobody!”

The comment engendered excited applause from the Hollyweird crowd, in his apparent attack on states like Florida, Oklahoma  and Arkansas who have prohibited drag shows for children.

Scheinert is just one of many celebrities to attack these states trying to protect children from groomers and pedophiles.

Infamous transvestite Rue Paul attacked the states.

“Drag queens are the Marines of the queer movement,” he said, as reported by Breitbart. “Don’t get it twisted and don’t be distracted.”

“Register to vote so we can get these stunt queens out of office.”

Whoopie Goldberg also mouthed off regarding the protection of children. She argued that Republicans attempting to protect children from groomers and pedophiles was intolerant.

“So stop calling us snowflakes,” she concluded.

The aged and irrelevant B-52’s even took to social media to attack the states.

“It is unacceptable that in the 21st century, we are witnessing such blatant attempts to undermine the rights of individuals based on their gender identity and sexual orientation,” they wrote. “These bills not only violate the fundamental human rights of the affected individuals but also perpetuate a toxic culture of hate and intolerance that has no place in our society.”

Melissa McCarthy also weighed in.

“You’ve been entertained by drag your whole life. Don’t pretend it’s a problem now,” she wrote.

Chuck Todd Accuses DeSantis of ‘Politicizing’ Communism by Teaching about It

(Molly Bruns, Headline USA) NBC News host Chuck Todd responded to the implementation of “Victims of Communism Day,” in Florida, complaining that by implementing the day, Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis is “politicizing” communism.

According to the Daily Wire, “Victims of Communism Day” is meant to “teach… students at all grade levels about the evils of communist regimes throughout history.”

“We’re also the first state in the country to establish every November 10th, the day in our schools is earmarked, to teach our students at all grade levels about the evils of Communist regimes throughout history,” DeSantis said at a recent press conference in Las Vegas.. “We’re going to tell the truth about Marxism and Leninism.”

The very suggestion of teaching about communism offended Todd, who even suggested it is redundant.

“I went to Florida public schools,” Todd declared, “We were taught this, it was called history. It just seems like a weird politicizing, you know, he’s going out of his way to politicize something.”

Todd’s take drew severe criticism on Twitter.

“Wait, what? A politician politicizing something,” user Patrick Flannelly said. “Gadzooks, what is the world coming to?”

“Isn’t communism a political philosophy?” another user pointed out.

“90% of teacher union donations go to Democratic candidates,” said user Holly Thornton. “They prioritize POLITICAL rhetoric over math & science in the classrooms, which is why our kids are falling behind globally. But sure, @chucktodd, it’s TOTES DeSantis & Republicans who are politicizing education.”

DeSantis’s passed a trio of civil literacy bills emphasizing the horrors of communism, as many of Florida’s residents escaped from communist regimes, such as Cuba.

“We have a number of people in Florida, particularly southern Florida, who’ve escaped totalitarian regimes, who’ve escaped communist dictatorships to be able to come to America,” DeSantis said.

The bills also target critical race theory in school curricula, with DeSantis arguing that “race essentialism” has no place in Florida.

Government Considers Social Media Censorship amidst Banking Collapse

(Ken Silva, Headline USA) After censoring information about COVID-19, elections and a variety of other issues in recent years, government authorities are now reportedly looking to employ similar tactics to suppress financial news in the aftermath of multiple bank closures.

Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky, said Sunday that a Democrat senator suggested financial news censorship during a Zoom meeting he had with officials from the Federal Reserve, Treasury Department, FDIC, House and Senate.

“A Democrat senator essentially asked whether there was a program in place to censor information on social media that could lead to a run on the banks,” Massie said.

Massie declined to name the senator on the grounds that the meeting was confidential. According to the congressman, the response from U.S. authorities to the senator’s question was, “We will get back to you on that.”

Massie’s meeting came after the historic failure of Silicon Valley Bank on Friday, and news that New York-based Signature Bank had also failed and was being seized on Sunday. At more than $200 billion and $110 billion in assets, respectively, Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank mark the second- and third-largest bank failures in U.S. history.

The congressman’s information indicates that authorities could employ censorship—along with bailouts and money-printing—to avoid a wider financial crisis.

The DHS and a wide network of government-funded organizations have repeatedly pressured social media companies to censor information about COVID-19, elections and a variety of other matters in recent years—as revealed in the Twitter Files. Financial censorship would be nothing novel.

And indeed, the DHS already treats financial “misinformation” as a national security threat. The DHS has recommended that its Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency play more of a role in combatting information that undermines democracy or “other sectors such as the financial system.”

Whether the censorship measures will be necessary remains to be seen. Biden administration official have moved quickly to bail out depositors to stem a wider financial crisis.

Officials said Sunday that depositors at Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank, including those whose holdings exceed the $250,000 insurance limit, will be able to access their money.

The Treasury Department, Federal Reserve and FDIC said Sunday that all Silicon Valley Bank clients would be protected and able to access their money. They also announced steps that are intended to protect the bank’s customers and prevent additional bank runs.

“This step will ensure that the U.S. banking system continues to perform its vital roles of protecting deposits and providing access to credit to households and businesses in a manner that promotes strong and sustainable economic growth,” the agencies said in a joint statement.

Under the plan, depositors at Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank, including those whose holdings exceed the $250,000 insurance limit, will be able to access their money on Monday.

In a separate announcement, the Fed late Sunday announced an expansive emergency lending program that’s intended to prevent a wave of bank runs that would threaten the stability of the banking system and the economy as a whole.

Experts Believe Many Children Interested in ‘Transitioning’ Are Autistic

(Molly Bruns, Headline USA) A recent report revealed that children with autism are more susceptible to identifying as transgender, and identify as trans more often than almost any other group.

According to the Daily Caller, people who identify as trans are also three to six times more likely to be autistic. The uptick “gender affirming care” into mainstream health practices lead to more and more scientists studying the connection between the two phenomena.

The Gender Development Identity Service at Tavistock—the world’s largest gender clinic—faced mounting public criticism over allegations that 97.5% of the institution’s gender patients also had autism.

Some professionals, such as Dr. Susan Bradley, believe that Big Pharma exploits autistic pediatric gender patients.

“When we were seeing these kids from a very young age, we had kids who would come into the clinic, a little girl who thinks she’s a boy or vice versa,” Bradley explained at the DSM-IV Subcommittee on Gender Disorders. “It wasn’t uncommon to find that one of them thought they were a dog or a cat or something else.”

Bradley demonstrated that many of these kids have trouble in social situations, often feel excluded or isolated from their peers and often do not understand that they are different from others.

She also explained that many very young children are very poorly equipped to manage the emotions that coincide with these experiences, often leading to them to search for alternative peer groups.

“When somebody happens to mention that, you know, they’re trans or they hear about trans kids and go online, even if all they do is say, ‘I wonder if I’m trans,’ a lot of these kids are automatically accepted,” Bradley explained. “‘Well, you must be trans if you’ve even thought about that.’ And for them, that is a very helpful reaction, because all of a sudden, they feel as though that explains all of the trouble all the way along.”

Several other doctors believe that the literal mindset of autistic people may contribute to the growing trend.

The population of transgender youth has skyrocketed in the last ten years, with an estimated 300,000 minors now “transitioning” and many of them seeking permanent medical changes to affirm their “gender identity.”

 

O’Keefe Confronts NYTimes in First Post-Veritas Viral Video

(Jacob Bruns, Headline USA) Investigative journalist James O’Keefe has released his first viral video since being fired last month from Project Veritas, the nonprofit media watchdog that he founded in 2010, Valiant News reported.

This time, O’Keefe, who recently helped to uncover Pfizer’s reckless vaccine-development practices, set his sights on exposing the New York Times’s biased coverage of the Jan. 6, 2021, uprising at the U.S. Capitol.

O’Keefe confronted Times reporter Matthew Rosenberg, who previously acknowledged in a Project Veritas hidden-camera investigation that the corporate media was guilty of “making too big of a deal of Jan. 6 by claiming it was “an organized thing that it wasn’t.”

Rosenberg’s admission followed another bombshell by Fox News host Tucker Carlson, who used the access granted to him by House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., to review tens of thousands of hours of Jan. 6 footage from the Capitol, showing that it was a largely peaceful and orderly affair.

The footage, and Rosenberg’s account, further confirmed that the isolated incidents of violence and vandalism may have been part of a false-flag operation.

“There were a ton of FBI informants who attacked the Capitol,” Rosenberg said during the hidden-camera interview. “The left’s overreaction in some places were so over the top.”

In his follow-up interview with Rosenberg, O’Keefe asked him if he wished to amend his previous statements, but Rosenberg declined, electing instead to text his left-wing hack friends.

O’Keefe followed up his successful video by beginning to recruit for his next potential venture.

“The world needs a citizen army holding institutions accountable,” he wrote. “We do that by empowering people to report things that are wrong.”

O’Keefe said he is looking for 100,000 “fierce truth seekers” willing to help him expose the establishment.

Unfortunately for Americans who wished to see our elites exposed as frauds, O’Keefe was fired by the board of the company that he founded earlier this year.

After his firing, numerous employees at the company lamented the loss of their leader.

“We will never replace James O’Keefe,” they said. “But for now, we see it as our job to hold the torch for him while keeping the door wide open for his return. We will keep the spirit of James’ mission alive for as long as we are able.”

Musk Signals Interest in Buying Failed Bank, Turning it Digital

(Jacob Bruns, Headline USA) Tesla founder and Twitter CEO Elon Musk signaled over the weekend that he may be interested in bailing out and taking over the failed Silicon Valley Bank, the Daily Mail reported.

In what has been called an “an extinction-level event for startups,” Silicon Valley Bank, the nation’s 16th-largest bank, failed after depositors hurried to withdraw money this week amid anxiety over the bank’s health.

It was the second biggest bank failure in U.S. history after the collapse of Washington Mutual in 2008.

The bank served mostly technology workers and venture capital-backed companies, including some of the industry’s best-known brands.

But on Friday, as the news was breaking, Musk—one of the world’s richest men—floated the idea of purchasing the bank in a five-word tweet.

“I’m open to the idea,” he wrote, responding to suggestions that he consider buying up the failed bank.

Many pushed the idea on Twitter in the wake of Musk’s suggestion.

“I think Twitter could use a financial leg,” Mikael Pawlo, head of branding at Swedish fintech firm Bokio, tweeted.

“Would make total sense for the entire Musk ecosystem to buy the ruins of SVB and could also create a viable business model going forward for Twitter,” Pawlo added.

Kevin Paffrath, CEO of HouseHack, a real-estate and A.I. startup, noted that it might be an unprecedented opportunity for Musk to avoid the pratfalls that other online platforms—notably Facebook—have suffered while trying to break into the financial sector.

“What an opportunity,” he tweeted. “2-3 years to get a banking charter otherwise. Just make sure you go through those toxic assets with a fine-tooth comb.”

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg was forced to dial back his sweeping plans for a digital currency that threatened to destabilize the dollar after government regulators stepped in.

Regardless of whether Musk steps in to prevent a government bailout, the surprise collapse of SVB and several other banks echoes, for many, 2008’s “too big to fail” fiasco, which served as prelude to a recession and protracted period of stagnant, “new normal” growth during the Obama administration

According to, Dan Roccata a finance professor at the University of San Diego, turbulent times are ahead—even though it may not yet be time to panic.

“I don’t think we’re going back to where we were in 2008 necessarily, but these things aren’t one-offs,” he said. “My suspicion is we’re going to see a few more of these things creep up.”

SVB’s customers are in danger of losing tens of billions of dollars as the situation deteriorates.

“It’s extremely painful,” said Karen Petrou, managing partner of Federal Financial Analytics.

 It could have very adverse consequences: microeconomic harm, social welfare harm,” she continued. “People all of a sudden could be up the creek.”
