‘My time at Area 51’: What does Kash Patel know about UFOs?



Kash Patel is Donald Trump’s choice to head the FBI, but before he receives the great honor of helping the president-elect lead and protect our great country, he sat down with Alex Stein of “Prime Time with Alex Stein” for an interview.

And in that interview, Stein grilled Patel on UFOs, which are now mysteriously flooding the sky across America.

“This is a tough question, and I want you to give us the real answer because I think it’s all a bunch of fuddy-duddy bullcrap,” Stein began. “All this UFO stuff, Kash, what’s going on with that?”

“I mean, is it another balloon? Is there really a lifeforce from a trillion space miles away, light years away, whatever the mumbo jumbo is, or is that all meant to distract us?” Stein asked.

Patel’s answer hinted that he may know something, but what he knows will remain a secret.


“When I come back in like 60 days and reveal myself as the biggest mole in CIA history, I will tell you all about the UFO landings and my time at Area 51. But, I’m just saying that as an ‘if’ right now,” Patel joked.

“But when I come back, I’ll describe the spaceships in detail and the places that we take all the aliens when we remove them,” Patel continued. “But you know what? They all have a copy of ‘Government Gangsters’ already, so they’re already ahead of the curve.”

Pastor goes scorched-earth on ‘pronoun hospitality’



Donald Trump’s election revealed plenty about those who voted against him, and Pastor John Piper was no exception. The pastor reacted to the win in a post on X, writing, “Having delivered us from one evil, God now tests us with another.”

While Allie Beth Stuckey of “Relatable” was disappointed in Piper’s response, the pastor has quickly earned himself a place back in her good graces after showing that while he might not like Trump, he doesn’t buy into the left-wing insanity either.

This was made crystal clear in a recent episode of “Ask Pastor John,” in which the pastor was asked what to do when confronted with the question of using “gender pronoun hospitality” on a local campus.

Allie says John Piper stated that “the entire idea of ‘gender pronoun hospitality’ is a misleading slogan" and that "connecting the beautiful biblical word ‘hospitality’ with the unbiblical concept of gender pronouns is unhelpful.”


“We ought to be hospitable, but we ought not to be affirming of pronouns that designate a destructive choice and a false view of reality. It is possible to be hospitable and honest,” he continued, before listing ten clear reasons he disagrees with “pronoun politeness.”

“It defies God. … Self-conception as male or female should be defined by God’s holy purposes in creation,” he began. “It involves living a lie. A woman cannot become a man nor a man a woman.”

“Being a man or a woman is not like being left-handed or right-handed. It goes far deeper and touches the depths of our created nature,” and “it regularly leads to destructive and irreversible surgeries and treatments” — which “destroys the God-designed potential of procreation and will bring sooner or later profound and sometimes suicidal regret.”

Piper went on to say that so-called transgenderism “expresses the deeply anti-God commitment to human autonomy over against the will of God” and that it “contributes to the cultural disorder of sexuality that tends to undermine God’s pattern from male and female and confuses and destabilizes our young people.”

Pronoun hospitality also “overlooks alternative ways forward that take seriously a person’s sexual confusion or rebellion,” “is the prelude to future perversions,” and “therefore, the greatest possible care should be taken before one gives any impression of approving or even being mildly disagreeable toward so-called transgenderism.”

“I think that is a perfect response, and I am so grateful for his clarity,” Stuckey says, adding, “Clarity is kindness.”

DEBATE: Should congressmen be allowed in women’s bathrooms?



House Speaker Mike Johnson has announced a new policy that explicitly states that transgender women must use the men’s bathroom and transgender men must use the women’s bathroom while in the Capitol.

This was in response to Representative-elect “Sarah” McBride, who identifies as a transgender woman, winning the Delaware seat.

“These are women’s spaces, and we should have a say. We shouldn’t have to bend to the rules of men who wear a skirt, who say that they have a right to infiltrate our spaces. I mean, these are private, sex-segregated spaces for a reason,” Allie Beth Stuckey of “Relatable” comments.

Brad Polumbo of the “Brad vs. Everyone Podcast” disagrees.


“I just see the whole thing as a solution in search of a problem. Basically, they’ve been using the facilities of their gender identity for years and years,” he tells Stuckey. “Even when you zoom out and look across the country, instances of physical assault or voyeurism or harassment in bathrooms are incredibly statistically rare.”

“And these gender identity ordinances that they’ve passed in many blue areas that allow people to use their preferred bathroom, those don’t correspond with any increase empirically in those crimes, in those offenses, according to a whole host of studies,” he continues.

“So I view the whole thing as kind of a culture war outrage that’s solving a problem that isn’t really there,” he adds.

However, Polumbo appears to be making the mistake of seeing the situation solely from a male perspective — as there are legitimate reasons a woman wouldn’t want to share a bathroom with a man who believes he is a woman.

“We’re talking specifically about women,” Stuckey responds. “No man is really afraid of the 5'4” guy, or actually female, with a beard, because he’s been on testosterone for a few years coming into his bathroom.”

“It is, of course, women who are justifiably nervous about the 6'2” guy who happens to be wearing a skirt and lipstick coming into her bathroom not only with her, but also with her 10-year-old daughter. Also, while she may be breastfeeding, also while she may be pumping, while she may be changing, she may be doing things that, of course, require privacy. That’s why we have bathrooms,” she continues.

While Polumbo goes on to claim that conservatives' fear of transgender women in women’s bathrooms is the same as the fear of a Catholic priest molesting a child, Stuckey couldn’t disagree more.

“I don’t think that’s a good analogy, because it’s not only that we are saying that men who identify as women may violate these girls. I understand that not every man who identifies as a woman is going to inflict violence upon a girl or a woman. It’s not only that though. It is in violation of reality, it is in violation of the truth,” she explains.

“There is a cost to saying that ‘two plus two equals five.’ Now, you could say it doesn’t really harm you to say that ‘two plus two equals five,’” she continues, “but I believe in violation of the rules of nature and the laws of reality.”

Jimmy Kimmel breaks down in TEARS after Trump landslide



Donald Trump’s win means a lot of great things for America, and it also means there’s no shortage of liberals recording themselves crying.

And late night host Jimmy Kimmel just became one of them.

“Let’s be honest, it was a terrible night last night. It was a terrible night for women, for children, for the hundreds of thousands of hardworking immigrants who make this country go, for health care, for our climate, for science, for journalism, for justice, for free speech,” Kimmel began.

“It was a terrible night for poor people, for the middle class, for seniors who rely on social security, for our allies in Ukraine, for NATO,” he continued, as his eyes sparkled with tears and his voice began to tremble.


“For the truth and democracy and decency, and it was a terrible night for everyone who voted against him. And guess what? It was a bad night for everyone who voted for him too, you just don’t realize it,” he concluded.

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” is amused to say the least.

“He’s just a sad, sad man,” Rubin says, adding, “look at the poor sad man. All of the money, all of the fame, and you didn’t get what you want.”

How FEMA is replicating COVID’s playbook



As disaster strikes America yet again, the government response is leaving many citizens with déjà vu — specifically from the COVID-19 lockdowns.

“We are told by President Biden that we have no money left, FEMA is out of money. Alejandro Mayorkas, the DHS secretary says, ‘You know, we don’t have anything left for hurricane season, our budget is completely depleted.’ But what did they do? They gave over a billion dollars to build illegal alien welcome centers,” Liz Wheeler of “The Liz Wheeler Show” comments.

“Then we’re told when we criticize the government, we are told by the FEMA administrator, her name is Deanne Criswell, that our response criticizing FEMA’s response is dangerous,” Wheeler says, noting it’s much like the demonization of those who rejected the government's response during COVID-19.



In a recent interview with George Stephanopoulos, Criswell claimed that the negative response has “a tremendous impact on the comfort level of our own employees to be able to go out there.”

“It’s also demoralizing to all of the first responders that have been out there in their communities helping people,” Criswell continued, adding, “When you have this dangerous rhetoric like you’re hearing, it creates fear in our own employees.”

Wheeler is horrified.

“George Stephanopoulos is doing exactly what the feds did with the Gretchen Whitmer fed-napping. When Gretchen Whitmer locked down her state during COVID-19, she had lockdowns. She prohibited people from traveling from A to B. She forced people to wear masks, and they had the feds basically entrapped,” Wheeler says.

“They created this situation with a bunch of homeless people, drug addicts, and ne’er-do-wells and had them stage, or attempt to stage, a kidnapping of the governor. And the reason that they did this wasn’t because this group of ne’er-do-wells would have actually staged their kidnapping had not the feds suggested it, given them money to do it, encouraged them, and drove them to the location,” she continues.

“The reason they did that is so that they could criticize anybody who dissented from the COVID lockdown narrative and say, ‘Oh, well you must want to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer,’” she says, adding, “That’s exactly what they’re trying to do to us right now.”

Obama 'still in charge' as White House puppet master



D.C. correspondent for Blaze Media, Christopher Bedford, has been exploring the dark depths of America’s capital for years — and it’s now the worst he’s ever seen.

Crime has skyrocketed among its residents while politicians live lavishly.

“There’s been about three shootings within a block of my house in the last month, because they’re just not afraid of the police. And it’s not like D.C. or other cities in America have been hit by some massive global depression, it’s not like a real actual disease has swept through and broken down law and order,” Bedford says.

“This is intentional suicide by our city council,” he adds.

However, one politician in particular is doing extremely well despite the city that’s crumbling around him: Barack Obama.

“You know who’s having a great time in D.C. is Barack Obama,” James Poulos tells Bedford.

“You’re not supposed to be living in D.C. and doing whatever he does in that mansion. Violated many, many decades of precedent of 'You're supposed to bug out of town once you’re out of office,'” he adds.

Bedford knows why.

“He’s still in charge,” he says. “He has full access to the White House. He’s holding meetings whenever he wants, he’s on phone calls, and visitors are coming to and from that Kalorama Heights mansion, and I kind of just want to know which aspects of the White House are being run by him.”
