Dear Friends,
Eighteenth-century British preacher Charles Spurgeon once said, “We have all seen swords that are beautiful but are useless in war, or shoes made for decoration but not for walking. Yet God’s shoes are made of iron and brass, and we can walk all the way to heaven in them without ever wearing them out. We could swim the Atlantic Ocean a thousand times in His life vest, with no fear of ever sinking. His Word of promise is meant to be tried and tested.”
“There is nothing Christ dislikes more than for His people to publicly profess Him and then not use Him. He loves for us to make use of Him, for His covenant blessings are not simply meant to be looked at, but should be appropriated! Our Lord Jesus has been given to us for our present use. Are you making use of Him as you should? O beloved, I plead with you not to treat God’s promises as something to be displayed in a museum, but to use them as everyday sources of comfort.”
1. DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY SAYS COVID-19 CAME FROM A LAB: The Wall Street Journal reports, “The U.S. Energy Department has concluded that the Covid pandemic most likely arose from a laboratory leak, according to a classified intelligence report recently provided to the White House and key members of Congress.”
Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) responded, “So the government caught up to what Real America knew all along.” Senator Eric Schmitt (R-MO) wrote, “Fauci knew this immediately but dismissed it because of funding for the Wuhan lab. We know what happened next — when Fauci spoke, Big Tech censored.”

2. COVERUPS IN EAST PALESTINE: Chemist Mike Adams has detailed 8 “alarming coverups and contradictions” stemming from the East Palestine train derailment. Two of the eight are listed below:
#2) Why are we told that the toxic chemical runoff from the firefighting water sprayed on the chemical fire is so toxic that it has to be injected deep underground so that it won’t surface for thousands of years, but also that the land and water where all those chemicals rained down is now perfectly safe and there’s nothing to worry about?
#5) Why do people who had already left East Palestine and were healed from their original exposure start getting sick again when they return to East Palestine?
Read the full list here. The Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) estimates that over 43,000 fish and other aquatic animals have died from chemical poisoning from the train wreck.
3. ONLY 4% OF AMERICANS HOLD BIBLICAL WORLDVIEW: The latest study from Dr. George Barn and the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University finds that only 4% of Americans hold a Biblical worldview, down from 6% just three years ago, in 2020. The report noted, “The COVID-19 lockdowns and lifestyle changes that began in early 2020 provided Americans with an opportunity to spend more time doing things their hectic, on-the-go lives precluded, such as reading the Bible. But it appears that as people’s lives were substantially altered by the virus and government policies, Americans were not spending the extra time devoting energy to spiritual matters and worldview enhancement.”
4. MARRIAGE AND MANHOOD CONTINUE TO DECLINE: Pew Research reports that 30% of U.S. adults are not married or in any committed relationship, while 47% of young adults (ages 18-29) are single. More shockingly, 63% of men aged 18-29 are single, compared to only 34% of women aged 18-29. American Principles Project President Terry Schilling said, “Men are more under attack than ever. A majority of college graduates are now women, and men are making less in the workforce. And because women expect their partner to make more than they do, it’s leading to a great isolation of American men.” Meanwhile, the Pentagon reports that a staggering 77% of Americans aged 17-24 are unfit for military service, up 6% since 2017.
YouGov reports, “A majority of Americans (55%) prefer complete monogamy in their relationships, but many adults would rather have some form of non-monogamy. Commenting on these trends, conservative columnist David Marcus predicts, “Polygamy will be legal in parts of the U.S. within a decade. There is no logical basis to oppose it once you accept gay marriage.”
5. BRAZIL TO ADOPT TOTALITARIAN CENSORSHIP: Journalist Glenn Greenwald (who currently lives in Brazil) reports, “A major escalation in official online censorship regimes is progressing rapidly in Brazil, with implications for everyone in the democratic world. Under Brazil’s new government headed by President Lula da Silva, the country is poised to become the first in the democratic world to implement a law censoring and banning ‘fake news and disinformation’ online, and then punishing those deemed guilty of authoring and spreading it. Such laws already exist throughout the non-democratic world, adopted years ago by the planet’s most tyrannical regimes in Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and Turkey.”
6. ALL MUSLIM TICKET WINS SUSPICIOUS ELECTION IN NIGERIA: In Nigeria, where Christians and Muslims each make up about half of the population, Bola Ahmed Tinubu of the ruling party claimed victory in a suspicious Presidential election. Even The Washington Post reports, “The opposition, including the campaigns of outsider candidate Peter Obi and former vice president Atiku Abubakar, has vowed to contest the results, saying that a new election should be held under a new elections chief.”
One Nigerian wrote, “The eyes of Nigerians were on the opposing parties as the emerging winners of the election. But overnight, it changed; it turned out that things happened which were not in the interest of Nigerians; we quickly saw the rigging of the election results…There are no well-meaning Nigerians who are happy with what is going on right here with the election. The ruling Muslim government has their own interests, and their choices are being imposed against the mass’s will.”

7. BIDEN TAPS TRILATERAL MEMBER, FORMER MASTERCARD CEO, TO HEAD WORLD BANK: Joe Biden has picked Trilateral Commission member, cybersecurity expert, and former Mastercard CEO Ajay Banga to head the World Bank. Biden said, “Ajay is uniquely equipped to lead the World Bank at this critical moment in history…He also has critical experience mobilizing public-private resources to tackle the most urgent challenges of our time, including climate change.”
Technocracy expert Patrick Wood notes that 11 current or former Trilateral Commission members occupy important positions in the Biden Administration and says, “For anyone who thinks that the Trilateral Commission has no influence in today’s world, or indeed, is still calling all the plays, they are ignorant of history and the depth of entanglement that remains to this day. In fact, the Commission still controls all economic policy within the White House, and they are intent on driving the world into and through the Great Reset into Technocracy.”
Ed. Note: For an in-depth look at the Trilateral Commission and Technocracy, see Trilaterals Over Washington, Volumes I and II, by Antony Sutton and Patrick Wood.
8. JOURNALIST SAYS BIG TECH COMPANIES ARE AGENTS OF THE STATE: In a recent interview, journalist Alan MacLeod said that Twitter, Facebook, and Google are essentially “agents of the national security state.” MacLeod pointed out numerous examples of “former” intelligence operatives going to work for tech companies and said that either Big Tech is “actively recruiting from the intelligence services or that there is some sort of backroom deal between Silicon Valley and the national security state.”
MacLeod said that “Google fundamentally started as a CIA project,” noting that Google co-founder Sergey Brin was funded and supervised by the CIA while at Stanford: “The CIA actually directly midwifed Google into existence.”
In related news, cellphone inventor Martin Cooper recently lamented, “We don’t have any privacy anymore because everything about us is now recorded someplace and accessible to somebody who has enough intense desire to get it.”
9. MEDICARE DATA CONFIRMS RISKS OF COVID VACCINES: A Medicare whistleblower has released extensive data confirming that Covid vaccines increase risk of death, especially for the elderly, and that the CDC has deliberately hidden this data from the American public. A pre-print study from Dr. James Thorp examining government data finds that, compared to the influenza vaccine, the Covid mRNA injection produces “a 57-fold increase in miscarriages, a 38-fold increase in stillbirth rates, and a 1200-fold increase in menstrual abnormalities.” Thorp said, “The pushing of these experimental COVID-19 vaccines globally is the greatest violation of medical ethics in the history of medicine, maybe humanity…[It is a] golden rule to never allow unknown substances to ever be used in pregnancy.”
10. HOUSE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE HOLDS HEARING AT SOUTHERN BORDER: The House Judiciary Committee held a hearing on the southern border crisis in Yuma, Arizona. Only Republican members were present, with Democrats refusing to attend. Pinal County, Arizona, Sheriff Mark Lamb testified that illegals told him they crossed to the United States “because Joe Biden said we could.” Lamb also said his county has witnessed “a 600 percent increase” of fentanyl, and that 44 Arizona children died of fentanyl poisonings in 2021.
War correspondent and former veteran Michael Yon recently visited the Southern Border and concluded, “This is an obvious invasion force…As a former Green Beret, having spent many years in many wars and conflicts, and an equal time in history books, this all is amazingly clear.” Yon believes illegals will be armed and stirred up to commit violence against groups of people the government wishes to eliminate.
11. WISCONSIN SUPREME COURT ELECTION COULD IMPACT 2024 ELECTION: Liberal Janet Protasiewicz and conservative Daniel Kelly have advanced to the general election for the swing seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court. CNN reports, “The state Supreme Court could also play a crucial role in the 2024 election.” The radical Communist Party USA says, “If the election for a judgeship in Wisconsin on April 4 goes the wrong way, right-wing tinkering with the election procedures in that state could well tip the entire national election in favor of either Trump or whatever MAGA fascist runs for the presidency under the Republican banner.”
Ed. Note: The odds seem stacked against conservatives, just as they have against every freedom movement in history. Yet we cannot afford to concede, no matter the difficulties. Last November, Jay Valentine reported how conservative activists were able to collapse the Democrats’ ballot-gathering machine in Wisconsin and re-elect Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI), who the New York Times smeared as “one of the foremost spreaders of misinformation” by a mere 26,000 votes. If you live in Wisconsin, this is a critical battle for you to engage.
12. MORE WORLD NEWS: In a recent address, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated, “The U.S. will have to send their sons and daughters… to WAR…and they will be DYING.” Russia, China, and South Africa are conducting joint military exercises off South Africa’s coast, as the anti-Western alliance accelerates. Scottish Health Minister Humza Yousaf, a Muslim with ties to the Muslim Brotherhood and other Islamic extremists, is poised to become the next leader of Scotland. NZ Herald reports, “South Africa is on the verge of “collapse” amid rolling blackouts and warnings a total power grid failure could lead to mass rioting on the scale of a ‘civil war.’”
13. CENSORSHIP AND MISINFORMATION STORIES: Dr. Joseph Mercola reports, “A group of health care providers that includes the American Medical Association, the American Hospital Association, Advocating for Health Insurance Providers (AHIP) and more than 50 others has formed a coalition aimed at stopping medical misinformation.” A proposed bill in Washington state would create a Domestic Violent Extremism Commission to censor “anti-LGBTQ and anti-science misinformation.’” In a recent House Select Subcommittee hearing on the Covid pandemic, Johns Hopkins School of Medicine professor Dr. Marty Makary rightly noted, “The greatest perpetrator of misinformation during the pandemic has been the United States government.”
14. NOTEWORTHY STORIES:

FAITH, FAMILY, & FREEDOM REPORT
1. MISSISSIPPI PROTECTS CHILDREN: Mississippi Republican Governor Tate Reeves signed House Bill 1125, which bans “gender reassignment” surgery and treatments for minors. Governor Reeves said, “There is a dangerous movement spreading across America today. It’s advancing under the guise of a false ideology and pseudoscience being pushed onto our children through radical activists, social media, and online influencers. And it’s trying to convince our children that they are in the wrong body. I stand before you today to sign legislation that puts a stop to this in Mississippi and protects our kids.”
2. CHLOE COLE TAKES ON TRANSGENDER CULT: Detransitioner 18-year-old Chloe Cole is filing a lawsuit against the doctors who performed a “gender transition” surgery on her as a teenage girl. Cole said, “I am going forward in taking legal action because every second that goes by, more blood is spilled by the same individuals and medical centers that destroyed my body and childhood.”
3. SECOND NHL TEAM DITCHES PRIDE GEAR: The New York Islanders have followed the New York Rangers, becoming the second National Hockey League team to ditch pride gear for its players. Joseph Backholm of the Family Research Council commented, “NHL players are demonstrating that bullies only have the power you give them. Once you ignore their threats, you often learn they didn’t have that much power to begin with. Bullies only win if they are allowed to fight us alone. In this case, it looks like they were going to have to fight a lot of hockey players — and that’s a fight they didn’t want to have.”
4. AAPS CONDEMNS GENDER IDEOLOGY AND MUTILATION: The conservative Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS) released eight bullet points detailing the harmful impacts of gender surgery and ideology. The AAPS said, “Through medical, surgical, and other interventions, it is possible to change the physical appearance of one’s body. Changing physical appearance does not change biological sex.”
5. SENATOR JOHNSON INTRODUCES BILL TO BAN WHO PANDEMIC TREATY: Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) has reintroduced the No WHO Pandemic Preparedness Treaty Without Senate Approval Act, a bill that would require any World Health Organization agreement to be approved by the U.S. Senate. Johnson said, “The WHO, along with our federal health agencies, failed miserably in their response to COVID-19. This failure should not be rewarded with a new international treaty that would increase the WHO’s power at the expense of American sovereignty…The sovereignty of the United States is not negotiable.”
6. DESANTIS ENDS DISNEY’S SPECIAL STATUS: Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed a bill terminating Disney’s self-governing status. DeSantis said, “Allowing a corporation to control its own government is bad policy, especially when the corporation makes decisions that impact an entire region. This legislation ends Disney’s self-governing status, makes Disney live under the same laws as everybody else, and ensures that Disney pays its debts and fair share of taxes.” Moms for Liberty co-founder Bridget Ziegler is one of five conservatives appointed to head the new district.
7. WEST VIRGINIA PASSES SECOND AMENDMENT BILL: Republican West Virginia Governor Jim Justice signed the Campus Self-Defense Act, which allows concealed carry holders to carry arms on university campuses. NRA State Director Art Thomm said, “The Campus Self-Defense Act recognizes the fact that danger doesn’t disappear just because you’ve stepped onto campus grounds. Now, those who choose to exercise the right will have the ability to protect themselves, their classmates, and their loved ones should they need.”
8. ALABAMA SECRETARY OF STATE EXPOSES ERIC: Alabama Secretary of State Wes Allen recently withdrew the state from the leftist-controlled ERIC voter management system, which makes fraud easier by inflating voter rolls. Allen discovered the following when he visited ERIC’s headquarters in D.C.: “Since I was in town, I went to see the ERIC Headquarters. What I found was that there was no ERIC headquarters at that address. There were no employees. There were no servers. There was no ERIC presence of any kind. Instead, I found a virtual office that is rentable by the day. What it was missing was people, servers, and any sign of the ERIC team.”
9. JUDICIAL WATCH REMOVES OVER 1 MILLION INELIGIBLE VOTERS FROM ROLLS: Judicial Watch has successfully forced Los Angeles County, California, to remove 1,207,613 ineligible voters from its rolls following a lawsuit from the organization. Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said, “This long overdue voter roll clean-up of 1.2 million registrations in Los Angeles County is a historic victory and means California elections are less at risk for fraud. Building on this success, Judicial Watch will continue its lawsuits and activism to clean up voter rolls and to promote and protect cleaner elections.”
10. CRIME IN EL SALVADOR PLUMMETS AFTER CRACKDOWN: The Daily Wire reports, “El Salvador witnessed a 56.8% decrease in the murder rate last year as the Latin American nation’s government instituted a crackdown on gang-related violence.” Michael Knowles commented, “We in the United States need to follow the lead of the government of El Salvador. We need to be clear that if you commit crimes, you will be punished for it.”
11. FORMER ABORTIONIST SAYS KILLING BABY IS NEVER NECESSARY TO SAVE MOTHER’S LIFE: Dr. John Bruchalski, a former abortionist turned pro-life doctor, calls the pro-abortion “Life of the Mother” argument a “false flag operation.” Bruchalski writes, “As an obstetrician-gynecologist who used to provide abortions early in my training, I know that intentional feticide is never necessary, even in the worst-case scenarios.”
12. JACOB KERSEY STANDS UP: 19-year-old Jacob Kersey, a former police officer who lost his job over a Facebook post defending biblical marriage, is working with First Liberty Institute to ensure that other police officers aren’t terminated over their religious beliefs. Kersey said, “If you get a distorted view of marriage, you get a distorted view of the Gospel,” and “If you cannot speak about religion, then you do not have religious freedom.”
13. “JESUS REVOLUTION” FILM TAKES OVER 15 MILLION ON OPENING WEEKEND: The Western Journal reports, “The film ‘Jesus Revolution’ more than doubled industry estimates, taking in over $15 million at the weekend box office and earning a third place finish overall.” Actor Kelsey Grammer, who stars as California pastor Chuck Smith in the film, said shooting the film reminded him of the Jesus revolution 50 years ago: “What it reminded me most of… in our time, the love, the sense of community, the things that we all had, it was real, and I miss it. Who knows? Maybe this film will bring some of that back. The light in people’s eyes then was genuine and sincere, and there was a connection of faith that was extraordinary.”
