Harbinger’s Daily
Erick Stakelbeck: You would think that this story was from a satirical website like The Babylon Bee or a parody skit, but it’s all too real. Pope Leo just awarded a top Iranian official with the Vatican’s highest diplomatic honor.
When I read it, I thought there was no way that such a lack of moral clarity—outright insanity—could be possible. Then I did some research, digging into multiple sources confirming that this top official from one of the world’s most bloodthirsty regimes, that’s fresh off slaughtering 43,000 of its own people in January alone (according to President Trump’s latest figures) is getting top honors at the Vatican.
Folks, wrap your heads around this!
Pope Leo has been critical of the Iran war, at loggerheads with President Trump. The timing of this seems like a poke in the eye.
Some pro-Leo websites insist that the timing meant nothing, the same excuse that we saw under the Biden administration when “transgender day of visibility” just happened to fall on Easter Sunday. They call it a simple “diplomatic protocol,” as this official is the Iranian ambassador to the so-called “Holy See.” He has been in that position for two and a half years, they assert, so it’s time he received this honor.
Sorry, I’m not buying it!

By PNW Staff: For generations, many Americans assumed the warnings about "papers, please" societies belonged to dystopian novels or authoritarian regimes far removed from the English-speaking West. Yet this week, alarm bells rang across both Britain and the United States after King Charles III formally announced the U.K. government's push toward a national digital ID system as part of its legislative agenda.
To supporters, it sounds harmless enough: modernization, convenience, fraud prevention, border security. But to critics, the proposal represents something far more significant -- another major step toward a fully trackable digital society where governments increasingly control not only identity, but eventually access itself.
And many Americans are now looking across the Atlantic and asking a troubling question: if it can happen in Britain, why couldn't it happen here?
The proposal, championed by Keir Starmer and the ruling Labour Party, would create a government-backed digital identity system designed to verify citizens for employment, services, and interactions with the state. Officials insist the program is necessary to combat illegal immigration and streamline public services.
On paper, the argument sounds practical. Britain is facing enormous migration pressures. Tens of thousands of migrants continue crossing the English Channel by small boats every year. Government systems are strained. Fraud is expensive. Bureaucracy is slow.
The solution, the government says, is digital efficiency.

Israel 365 News
By Valerie Locke: When Nicholas Kristof’s op-ed landed in the pages of the New York Times this week, it did not just spark a diplomatic controversy. It revived a term that has haunted Jews for nearly a thousand years: blood libel.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar issued a joint statement Thursday announcing Israel will sue the New York Times over the column, which alleged “a pattern of widespread Israeli sexual violence against men, women and even children” committed by soldiers, settlers, Shin Bet interrogators, and prison guards.
Netanyahu called it “one of the most hideous and distorted lies ever published against the State of Israel in the modern press.” He later posted on X: “They defamed the soldiers of Israel and perpetuated a blood libel about rape, trying to create a false symmetry between the genocidal terrorists of Hamas and Israel’s valiant soldiers. We will fight these lies in the court of public opinion and in the court of law. Truth will prevail.”
The medieval blood libels — false accusations that Jews murdered Christian children to use their blood for Passover rituals — sent entire Jewish communities to the sword.
The protesters gathered Thursday outside the Times‘ Manhattan headquarters understood this lineage. One demonstrator held a sign reading “J’accuse” beside the Times logo — a direct reference to the Dreyfus Affair, in which false accusations nearly destroyed an innocent Jewish officer. Another shouted, “Hamas abuse covered up! Nick Kristof made stuff up!” Around 200 demonstrators chanted, “New York Times, shame on you,” and “Stop the libels, stop the hate.”

By Daniel Greenfield: One of the things I keep reminding people of is that Islamization isn’t just a problem in a handful of blue cities like New York City, but all across the country. Dems and refugee resettlers focused on moving Islamic populations to parts of the country like Minnesota and Maine to change the electorates.
People are now paying attention to the Islamization crisis in Texas. But it’s also all across the South.
Over in North Carolina, Democrats are replacing state Sen. Terence Everitt with Haseeb Fatmi, CAIR’s Action arm had backed Fatmi for Wake Forrest Commissioner and now their candidate is headed for the state senate.
Haseeb is the son of Mohammad Fatmi from a family that apparently hails from Bangladesh.
And this is how it happens.

Sunday Night Prophecy Update 05-17-26
Synopsis: In this powerful Sunday Night Prophecy Update, Tom Hughes is joined by Pablo Frascini for a wide-ranging conversation on UFO disclosure, end-times deception, revival in the last days, the rapture, “high watch days,” and the growing apostasy inside the modern church. Together, they examine current events through the lens of Scripture, discussing Matthew 24, Daniel’s 70th Week, the rise of globalism, and why believers must stay spiritually alert at all times instead of chasing sensational predictions.
Pablo also shares a powerful message about occupying faithfully, preaching the Gospel, and remaining grounded in biblical truth as deception increases in the world. The second half of this study dives deep into Judges chapter 11 and the life of Jephthah — the rejected son turned mighty warrior — revealing how God uses broken, unwanted, and unlikely people for His glory. This encouraging teaching reminds us that no past is too messy for God to redeem, and that He can transform pain, failure, and hardship into purpose when we fully surrender to Him.
