Dan Ball and OAN was my go-to for news….until DirecTV dropped them. I’m angry that news can be censored due to 4 Democrat Congressmen demands and my choice of news is not readily available. 🤬🤬🤬

I admire their courage to stand up and speak out against this blatant hypocrisy and political interference to shut down a news outlet.

“I’m angry that news can be censored”

I’m angry that the society I live in has become insane and is disintegrating. It is what it is though. No point crying about it. Only God knows what fate has in store for us as our rotting society and our fallen world slide ever closer to the abyss.

God doesn’t intervene in our affairs so your prayers won’t help.

“For he makes his sun rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the just and the unjust.” Matt 5:45

Jensen Huang is the CEO of Nvidia, one of the world’s top AI companies. In this video he’s talking about how fast it’s moving and the immense impact it will have on our world. He’s a globalist but in the sense of someone who wants the best for humanity rather than in the sense of an elitist who wants to be in the globalist ruling class that wants to micromanage humanity. We’re very fortunate to have people like him and Elon on our side. They give me hope for our dark and fallen world which seems to have such a bleak future. For whatever reason, what people like this are saying sails past most like water off a duck’s back but this is the only thing powerful enough to save our sinking ship.

Praying for guidance. Praying for strength in character. Praying for our enemies to seek redemption. Yes, prayers work and His will, will be done, but it will be on His timeline and not ours.

“but it will be on His timeline and not ours.”

We have very little time left and if God is planning to help us then perhaps he’s taking advantage of this universal principle of the “emergence phenomena” of complexity emerging from simplicity faster and faster.

We will soon see though, that’s for sure. Every single day I go online and read and watch videos of the ever worsening rot and insanity in our society and world and at the same time every single day I go online and read and watch videos of the exponential advance of AI and its already proven immense ability to be a game changer for humanity and this is happening right now. Even just 6 months from now AI will be far more advanced and our society and world will be in far worse shape and much closer to the abyss. The best of times. The worst of times. Very strange how true this is.

I agree, Ruth. I pray the rosary and trust in Jesus.

Expand full comment

I beg to differ. God most assuredly hears our prayers and admonishes us throughout the entire length and breadth of the Bible to pray without ceasing!

He gave us free will and thus requires an invitation (our prayers), to allow Him to intervene.

He has answered more prayers in my lifetime that outnumber the grains of sand on earth!

So why didn’t God intervene to save the Jews being murdered by the Germans during WW2 and why isn’t God intervening to save the Palestinians being murdered by the Jews in Gaza right now? Time for you to face the dark reality of the fallen world we live in.

Same here. I had AT&T's cable TV product which then went back to DirecTV and OANN was the only news I watched after Pres. Trump took office in Jan 2017 and I saw Fox news anchors turn increasingly against him after the 2018 mod terms when Paul Ryan left Congress and joined Fox management. I dropped Comcast altogether b/c of their refusal to carry OANN, but then had to drop DirecTV Now (streaming product) when they stupidly dumped OANN. I downloaded the OAN app onto my Roku box and its been fine ever since. Best video / TV news network in the USA.

I was in the same dilemma.

OAN is on Pluto, along with Blaze and others, via Amazon Prime. Much cheaper than Direct Or Comcast. I cancelled every thing. Amazon has Prime and Netflix which is plenty of time to waste.

Worth watching Glenn mop the floor with these morons at this WH Correspondents Dinner. No one does a better job of pounding these people than Glenn Greenwald and he does have a huge audience. Just imagine though being one of these people from this dinner who happened to watch what Glenn has to say about it and knowing how many people follow him. You’d be just totally horrified by this. It really is devastating.

Thanks for the link, Seva. Greenwald is spot on with that skewering, and analogy of White House press dinner to the Palace of Versailles. The adversarial press core now only exists outside the MSM. Will it also eventually end in guillotines? Hope not.

Thank you Sasha! For posting these videos of Tucker's interviews.

And especially this one about OANN! i always thought they were better than Newsmax.

Tucker, OANN, Elon Musk, last refuge of honest reporting and commentary.

From where I sit, I see America going down. It now obviously ehoes the Revelation 17-18 prophetic vision of The Great Whore, which matches what the USA has turned into. I have read the ending of the story and the wicked will be turned into hell with the devil and his "angels". And God's people end up with crowns.. (See Daniel 11)

Don’t forget Glenn Greenwald and there are actually many others who do daily report the truth. There are two media’s in America, one Woke and the other nonWoke which simply lack a common reality. A society this severely fragmented cannot function as a country which is why we no longer are.

Glenn Greenwald has a good video about this bill overwhelmingly, 320 to 91, passed by the House to criminalize criticism of Israel. No doubt this will be passed by the Senate and signed into law by Biden. Under this law Glenn can be silenced, sued, prosecuted and punished for objecting to what Israel is doing to Gaza. This is insane and yet another reason why I don’t believe America even still exists as a country. God only knows where we’ll all end up as our rotting society collapses and shatters.

Coincidentally, after watching OAN religiously since they began and was sad when Frontier unceremoniously dropped them, JUST LAST NIGHT I subscribed to their streaming service. Dan Ball did an admirable job tonight explaining what a hatchet job had been done to their network and its owners. Thank you Tucker for publicizing their story and thank you OAN for keeping my favorites Lilia, Chanel, John, Dan and many others to once again be the background ‘music’ of my daily life. By the way, Frontier told me that you wouldn’t agree to their new contract terms and that was why OAN was dropped.

Wonder what those new ‘contract terms’ w/ Frontier were. Pretty sure it was anti-free speech in nature. OANN has thier own lawsuit it seems so stay tuned…

OANN was sued in 2022 by voting tech company Smartmatic, and I think part of settlement was OANN being forced to report on air some kind of apology for reporting ‘widespread voter fraud’. You’ll recall Fox News was also sued by Dominion Voting (also for claiming 2020 vote was rigged) and settlement for $787M. I happen to believe 2020 vote had massive funny business to it, and this past week we see survey report of 1 in 5 mail in votes, 2020 were illegally cast.

https://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/partner_surveys/one_in_five_mail_in_voters_admit_they_cheated_in_2020_election

Rasmussen and The Heartland Institute who conducted the survey will now be cancelled, tarnished or otherwise discredited. The persecution of OANN & Fox was also about trying to squelch the ‘2020 vote was rigged’ narrative. They probably succeeded in some camps. But not this one.

America is rotting, no longer exists as a country and our whole world is in a tailspin. That’s basically our situation in a nutshell. Peter Diamandis interviews two of the world’s top AI researchers. Quite fascinating. What they’re saying is that AI can quickly process a vast amount of data and easily see very subtle, underlying patterns that humans miss and therefore is ideally suited to come up with with answers to biological issues where we do have a vast amount of data and more all the time which simply overwhelms human researchers but are easily analyzed by AI. How far away is AI from being truly creative? We actually have already arrived and are just beginning to benefit from this knowledge. The best of times. The worst of times. That’s basically our situation in a nutshell.

“Geoffrey Hinton, often referred to as the "godfather of deep learning," is a British-Canadian cognitive psychologist and computer scientist recognized for his pioneering work in artificial neural networks. His research on neural networks, deep learning, and machine learning has significantly impacted the development of algorithms that can perform complex tasks such as image and speech recognition.”

Neither here nor there ...

America is the only country I will ever have. But apart from the self-interest of myself and my line, I am not really emotionally invested in it. "I gaze beyond the rain-drenched streets ... to England, where my heart lies". Written by a Hungarian Jew (Paul Simon), but one with good taste.

One of the best memories of my life is somehow, with my father and brother, stumbling into a dell where beeches were the only living things to be seen. There were perhaps about 30 or so, looking like the columns of temple. I could imagine I was in England. I have not since been able to find the place. My guess is that the rednecks of Hardin County TX (locally notorious for shooting at game wardens) cut them all down just out of spite over "eminent domain". I know that had happened earlier.

Mike Johnson is despicable. He’s now owned and operated by the democrats who threaten to block any more money for Israel unless he does what they want. With leaders like this, we sure don’t need enemies. In effect, this means the democrats now control the House along with the Senate and the White House. Why would anyone believe that America is still a country?

First, they came for OANN, on their way to NewsMax and then Fox. Hmm ... now why does "First, the came for ..." sound familiar?

Here's what the American version, if we do not stop it, will be:

"First, they came for they Jews. But I was not a Jew."

"Then, they came for the Christian Whites. But I was not a Christian White."

"Then, they came for the non-compliant Whites. And those who would have defended me had no power to do so."

The usual expression is "boiling the frog". That is what they will do, if they are not stopped.
