Harbinger’s Daily
By Calvary Chapel Magazine: “Of the 56 men who shaped the Declaration of Independence, more than half of them, 29 had some form of seminary or Bible school degrees,” noted Gary Hamrick, senior pastor of Cornerstone Chapel in Leesburg, VA, in a May 2026 teaching honoring the 250th birthday of our country. “They acknowledged that it was upon God that this nation was founded. They so relied on Him, that they were willing to sign their names and to die for this cause, if necessary.”

Two Calvary Chapel pastors, one on the West Coast and another on the East Coast, share their thoughts about this significant event.

David Rosales, Senior Pastor of Calvary Chapel Chino Valley, CA:

Because history has really been neglected in school—has been for a generation now—people do not realize the hand of God on this nation and the character and fiber that came from its initial founding. Our laws are based on the Judeo-Christian philosophy of life. I see the U.S. as being a “city on a hill.”

“You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:14-16 ...



Prophecy News Watch
By PNW Staff: For centuries, the Church has stood at the bedside of the dying with a simple but profound mission: to comfort the suffering, proclaim the hope of Christ, and remind both the living and the dying that life belongs ultimately to God. That sacred calling is now being dramatically redefined in Canada.

The Anglican Church of Canada has authorized the trial use of a 66-page liturgy specifically designed for those choosing Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD), complete with prayers before the lethal drugs are administered, prayers afterward, confession, anointing with oil, Holy Communion, blessings, and other rites traditionally reserved for preparing believers to meet God.

It is difficult to overstate the significance of this decision.

This is not merely the Church ministering to someone who has already decided to end his or her life. It is the Church creating an official religious framework surrounding the act itself. Whether intended or not, the message received by many believers will be unmistakable: euthanasia is compatible with faithful Christian discipleship.

That represents a profound theological shift. ...



Israel 365 News
By Tamar Stein: Tucker Carlson, the former Fox News host turned independent podcaster, accused Israel of running an “apartheid situation” and announced plans to help launch a third political party in the United States, in an interview published Wednesday by the Columbia Journalism Review. The remarks mark the most explicit break yet between Carlson and both the Republican establishment and the Trump administration he once championed.

Carlson told CJR he had avoided criticizing Israel for most of his career because the subject felt “too personal,” adding that he had long operated under what he called an “unwritten rule” that criticism of Israel amounts to criticism of Jews generally. He claimed his private views have not changed in twenty years. “I’ve been to Israel a lot, so I’m fully aware of the apartheid situation in Israel,” Carlson said. “I’ve been offended by it going back twenty years.”

Carlson said the immediate trigger for going public was the 2025 war with Iran, which he described as “the first salvo in a regime-change effort led by Israel.” He said he warned Trump directly, during three White House visits in the month before the war began, that toppling the regime in Tehran would not produce “a democratic, pro-Western government.” According to Carlson, Trump’s response was simply, “I know.”

Carlson’s Bbreak With Facts

Carlson framed his falling-out with Trump in the language of betrayal, telling CJR he feels sorry for a president he now regards as unable to control his own administration’s direction. “He’s not a man in charge of his own life at this point,” Carlson said. That claim collapses under its own weight: Trump remains the sitting president of the United States, commanding the executive branch, the military, and a Republican Congress. Carlson’s sympathy is a rhetorical device, not an argument. ...

Jihad Watch
By Robert Spencer: Ragab Abdelmoneim is not an “extremist.” He is simply reflecting the teaching of the Qur’an, which calls on believers to wage violent jihad: “Those of the believers who sit still, other than those who have an injury, are not equal with those who wage jihad in the way of Allah with their wealth and lives. Allah has conferred on those who wage jihad with their wealth and lives a rank above the sedentary. Allah has promised good to each, but he has bestowed on those who wage jihad a great reward above that of the sedentary, degrees of rank from him, and forgiveness and mercy. Allah is always forgiving, merciful.” (Qur’an 4:95-6) ...



Frontpage Magazine
By Josh Hammer: It’s hard to believe, but our great nation celebrates its 250th birthday this Saturday. May that celebration, as Declaration of Independence signee and then-future President John Adams put in a letter to his wife Abigail on July 3, 1776, “be solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with Shews, Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other from this Time forward forever more.”

The United States is the oldest continuously functioning constitutional republic of its kind. Empires have risen and fallen. Monarchies have been toppled. Tyrannies have met the ash heap of history. Countless other republics have succumbed to faction, corruption, and decadence. Yet through civil war, depressions, world wars, a century-long “march through the institutions” by the Marxist Left, and so much more, the American constitutional order has endured. Indeed, in many (though not all) ways, it has thrived.

This was never inevitable. ...



Leo Hohmann’s Newsletter
By Leo Hohmann: The big-picture lesson from the Covid era should have been obvious. It should have screamed loud and clear to every freedom-loving American: The power elites who run things at the local, state and federal levels want to tag and track our movement, but not just our movement. They want to track our diet, our healthcare, our purchasing habits, our use of energy, our online comment history, our very thoughts.

They want all of it. And if they get their way, you will own nothing. Literally nothing. Even if you technically own an asset, you will not control it, so do you really own it?

Your bank account will be theirs, programmed to be switched on or off at their pleasure, based on your compliance with the dictates of the surveillance state. Your car will be theirs, able to monitor your eye movements, your posture and who knows what else in real time, and be remotely disabled at their pleasure, thanks to Joe Biden’s remote vehicle kill switch law. Your ability to eat healthy food will be gone, thanks to Donald Trump’s granting of legal immunity to Bayer/Monsanto, protecting it from lawsuits based on the harmful effects of bioengineered food laced with chemicals. Same for your healthcare. Your online speech. Even your thoughts. They will own it all if they succeed in bringing in the long-planned AI-powered digital control grid that is currently under construction in the form of 6G wireless networks along with thousands of AI data centers, Flock cameras and other devices. ...
