The REAL Olympic spirit: The mother who ran 100 miles and WON



Motherhood is undoubtedly one of the hardest jobs there is — but some women make it look easy.

Jasmin Paris is one of them. Paris is not only a mother but somehow has also been able to accomplish being a clinical academic, small animal vet, teacher, and an ultramarathon runner.

Paris took life and literally ran with it. The mother became the first woman ever to finish a 100-mile ultramarathon called the Barkley Marathons and participated in the Spine Race — which is around 268 miles.

“The reason I signed up for it originally was when I was coming back into training after having my daughter, my first baby, and I kind of wanted a new challenge. Something that would keep me motivated,” Paris tells James Poulos of “Zero Hour.”

When her daughter was 10 months old, Paris was back at work full time — but that didn’t stop her from training for the Spine every single day.

“It’s difficult when you compare yourself to the way that you were before you had a kid, but if you sign up for something completely new, and a different challenge altogether, then you’ve got nothing to compare yourself against. You can just go into it completely new and excited,” she explains.

Poulos is thoroughly impressed.

“That’s beautiful, that you’re splitting your time, aside from family of course, between caring in expert ways for small animals, and then taking on some of the biggest challenges that just seem to be outside of all human proportions,” he tells Paris.

One of Paris’ main reasons for running the way she does is that she says it’s where she is truly herself.

“Once you kind of become a parent, I think it’s difficult to, alongside work, to keep something that’s just about you. And I personally found that having running helps me be a better parent,” she explains. “I also think it’s really good for the next generation, for my kids to see that I’m not just taking them around from swimming class to gymnastics class, with my whole life revolving around them.”

“It’s good for them to see that I’ve got a hobby as well, because if you want them to grow up like that, with a passion, and be ambitious, and believe in themselves, then you need to lead by example,” she adds.

George Soros, Andy Stanley, and the left-wing plot to END Evangelicalism



Evangelical leaders are selling out to the LGBTQ agenda, and Daily Wire reporter Megan Basham, who just released her new book “Shepherds for Sale: How Evangelical Leaders Traded the Truth for a Leftist Agenda,” has the receipts.

“You have organizations that claim to be ministries that are taking funding from secular, left-wing, gay lobbying groups,” Basham tells Allie Beth Stuckey on “Relatable,” noting that the Arcus Foundation is one of them.

The Foundation was founded in 2000, and it’s the country’s largest LGBTQ grant maker.

“What that foundation started to do, the Arcus Foundation, was look at, ‘Okay, how can we reform church doctrine in conservative ministries and in conservative denominations,’ and that’s what they did,” Basham says.

“They’re bringing this curriculum in,” she continues. “I think a lot of churches don’t realize that activists are being trained to come change your doctrine on this.”

Stuckey knows of one pastor in particular who’s embraced this change, referencing a recent sermon pastor Andy Stanley gave.

“He basically said that homosexuality is different than any other sin because saying that homosexuality is a sin is saying that who someone is is a sin,” Stuckey says. “Which is a completely unbiblical way to look at sexuality and identity.”

A more widely known name has also been pushing a left-wing agenda on the church.

That name is George Soros.

“His foundation started funding a secular-left immigration NGO called the National Immigration Forum, and around 2013, 2015, they realized that they needed to move the evangelical vote on this particular issue if they wanted to get some of these immigration reform policies, what I would call very lax border policies, across the finish line,” Basham tells Stuckey.

So, they partnered with the National Association of Evangelicals and launched what Basham calls a “front group”: the Evangelical Immigration Table.

“Its purpose, to be very clear, is not to do things like spread the gospel to illegal immigrants. It’s not to feed and clothe people regardless of how they got there,” Basham explains. “It’s specifically policy-focused.”

Groups like the ERLC and the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities have also been heavily involved in these groups.

“They all became involved with this group,” Basham continues, “that is under the umbrella of a secular left immigration NGO that is taking funding from people like George Soros in this program that was specifically designed to target conservative voters, specifically evangelical.”

‘Death over deprogramming’: The ‘Black Girl Tragic’ cult seeks to DESTROY America



Nearly 100 years ago, the Ku Klux Klan stormed Jason Whitlock’s great-grandfather’s home in Kentucky.

They dragged his grandfather from his home, beat him, and carried him to a lynching tree. His grandmother witnessed the entire assault. However, unbeknownst to his attackers, Whitlock’s grandfather was a Freemason, and made a hand signal that could only be understood by a fellow Mason.

One of the Klansmen recognized the hand gesture and objected to his killing. His life was spared, and he fled with his family to Indianapolis.

While his grandmother was understandably scared of white people for decades following, she was able to see past it and embrace Jesus Christ.

“It’s a reminder of the way things were. The way black women used to represent themselves and define their identity by their faith rather than their politics,” Whitlock recalls.

Now, black women are no longer following Jesus Christ but what Whitlock calls the “Black Girl Tragic religion.”

He believes women like Sheryl Swoopes, who is constantly hating on Caitlin Clark for being a white star in a league and sport dominated by black lesbians — embody this cult-like religion to a T.

“It’s a cult that rejects Jesus and will choose death over deprogramming,” Whitlock says. “They would rather die than surrender the power that they have acquired through this ‘Black Girl Tragic’ religion.”

One of the main points those who preach this religion continuously make is that they alone are victims who require everyone else to lift them up — while tearing those people down.

Former President Donald Trump was ambushed by one of these cult members as he was explaining what policy changes he had made as president that helped the black community.

“Mr. President, I would love if you could answer the question on your rhetoric and why you believe that black people can trust you with another four years?” A reporter asked, interrupting him.

Trump then called himself the best president since Abraham Lincoln for black people and called her out for being 35 minutes late.

“That’s dragon energy, and that’s where we’re all going to have to get comfortable when you get hit with the idiocy, the disrespect, the hostility from these cult members,” Whitlock says. “That woman is a lunatic.”

“If we’re not willing to stand up to them, the entire American society and culture will further lean into their cult-like mentality and worldview,” he continues, adding, “It’s a cult. They’d rather die than be deprogrammed. They’re destroying this country.”

Baphomet, drag queens, and the Olympics' SATANIC symbolism



The Olympics Games are no longer just a place for the greatest athletes in the world to prove that they are the greatest athletes in the world.

As of 2024, it’s apparently now a place to openly mock Christianity and feature satanic symbolism.

To kick off the turn from tradition, Snoop Dogg was featured in the Olympic parade — but his presence isn’t the only issue. The rapper wore a Baphomet necklace around his neck. Baphomet is a pagan god more recently adopted as a symbol for the Satanic Temple.

“It is really disturbing to see this display, to see this made into some kind of golden image, golden idol that Snoop Dogg is wearing around his neck,” says Allie Beth Stuckey, BlazeTV host of “Relatable."

Snoop Dogg also released a video a few years ago in which he depicted himself murdering Donald Trump.

“He depicted himself murdering Donald Trump, murdering a sitting president, and we’ve decided that this person needs to be a mascot for the United States, he needs to carry the torch for America,” Stuckey adds.

Snoop Dogg was joined in the parade by three French drag queens, and it only got worse from there.

The opening ceremony featured a “drag queen Last Supper,” where the performers were seated in a configuration reminiscent of Jesus and his apostles. An overweight woman took Jesus’ place in the middle.

Later, a nearly naked man, painted blue, appeared as a portrayal of Dionysus, the god of winemaking, vegetation, fertility, and ecstasy.

Christians are understandably offended, despite critics claiming they simply have a “persecution complex.”

“Even if that were the case, this is still a celebration of paganism. This is still a celebration of the subversion of the natural and the good and the beautiful,” Stuckey says. “They admit that this was supposed to be a celebration of promiscuity and indulgence.”

“You are promoting ugliness. You are promoting disorder. You are promoting sin. You are promoting a kind of decadence and immorality that has led to the downfall of many societies before us and is currently leading to the decay and the destruction of the West today,” she adds.
