Alex Pretti: Domestic Terrorist.

Times Now: Who Is A Domestic Terrorist? Kristi Noem Accuses Alex Pretti After Fatal Minneapolis Shooting.

⏫ Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said so. 

⏫ White House deputy chief of staff for policy Stephen Miller (Jewish) called him, "An assassin."  

⏫ Miller retweets DHS that Pretti violently resisted arrest and had no ID.

And IYKYK, I did; didn't have to confirm it but FYI: 

⏫ Because why would an Italian wear that sweatshirt? 

In 3, 2, 1 ... RINOs and faux-Conservatives who Tweet and love Eric Daugherty reporting on Senator Ashley Moody, (R-FL)..."REEEEE!" ⏬

"Foreign interests...using agitators,"...well, that could be anybody. Probably Puuuuuuuuuuutin and Russia. 

One less Domestic Terrorist is a good thing, right?

Trump Commutes Sentence of Meth Dealer.

People (via Yahoo News): Donald Trump Orders Prison Release of GOP Congressman's Son, Who Got 8 Years for Distributing Meth. 

Donald Trump granted clemency to Rep. Steve Womack's son on Thursday, Jan. 15.

The president commuted James Phillip Womack's eight-year federal prison sentence for distributing methamphetamine.

President Donald Trump has granted clemency to a Republican congressman's son, who was behind bars for distributing methamphetamine.

Trump, 79, officially commuted the federal sentence of James Phillip Womack, the son of Rep. Steve Womack, on Thursday, Jan. 15, according to the Office of the Pardon Attorney. An official Executive Grant of Clemency issued by the U.S. Department of Justice formally announced the commutation of the Arkansas congressman’s son.

[.]

The congressman’s son was sentenced in federal court in May 2024 to a $1,900 fine and eight years in prison for distributing more than five grams of methamphetamine, according to Office of the Pardon Attorney records.

[.]

Federal prosecutors indicted James in April 2023, according to court documents viewed by PEOPLE. Outside of distributing more than five grams of methamphetamine, the indictment also charged him with possessing a firearm as a convicted felon. [ ANOTHER FELON WITH A GUN? How did he obtain it? We "need more common sense gun lasw!"  🤣 - DD ]

James has a history of arrests dating back to 2007, KTHV reported, citing court documents.

[.]

He was arrested in 2018 on more than 10 charges, including multiple related to drugs and firearms, and later entered a plea agreement in the case, according to KTHV and KNWA. He was sentenced in state court to nine years behind bars for multiple felony charges and released early in 2020, but was later arrested again, according to KNWA.

KNEWZ: Trump pardons congressman's meth-dealing son.

"I thought Trump was against drug use, you know, since that was his excuse for Venezuela," someone else wrote on the newspaper's post.

Another commenter noted that the senior Womack may no longer be a free man himself, saying, "Well, Womack's an owned man now." 

Womack has been a staunch ally of Trump, actively advancing the "America First" legislative agenda through his leadership on the House Appropriations Committee.

Matthew 23:12; NLT: But those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.

Context Summary

Matthew 23:1–12 begins Jesus' condemnation of Israel's religious leaders, summarized with the phrase "the scribes and the Pharisees." He warns those listening not to follow their example, since they don't practice what they preach. Their words imply heavy burdens, but their actions don't reflect the same. They make no effort to help others fulfill those requirements. In fact, everything they do is for show: only to be seen and approved of by others. They make a great show of religious clothes and symbols, jockey for the seats of honor everywhere they go, and take enormous pride in their prestigious spiritual titles.

I am a Christian. 

When I say that "I am a Christian," I am not shouting that "I am clean Living." I'm whispering "I was lost, but now I am found and forgiven." 

When I say that "I am a Christian," I don't speak of this with pride. I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say that "I am a Christian," I'm not trying to be strong. I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on. 

When I say that "I am a Christian," I'm not bragging of success. I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.

When I say that "I am a Christian," I'm not claiming to be perfect. My flaws are too visible, but God believes I am worth it.

When I say that "I am a Christian," I still feel the sting of pain. I have my share of heartache, so I call upon His name. 

When I say that "I am a Christian," I'm not holier than thou. I'm just a sinner who received God's good grace, through Jesus Christ, somehow. ✟

- slightly different than the poem by Carol Wimmer, 1988

- - - 

✟ How? By believing and knowing that all man's sins were forgiven by Jesus' Crucifixion, shedding of His blood, death and resurrection at Calvary.

Convicted Felon with 29 guns.

WHIOTV: Man charged after nearly 30 guns, thousands of rounds of ammunition found in home.

Jeffrey Crutchfield was indicted by a Montgomery County Grand Jury on 40 counts of having weapons while under disability.

Crutchfield was not allowed to have guns due to a prior felony conviction.

How did this felon obtain these guns and ammo? Why do I bother asking questions that will never be answered or made public?

But fer shure, cracking down on 2A legal, law abiding Americans - making it more onerous to obtain guns legally - will reduce the number of Jeffrey Crutchfields. 🤪

Spy cockroaches; Germany plots the future of warfare.

al-Reuters (July 2025): Spy cockroaches and AI robots: Germany plots the future of warfare.  

Some of the ideas under development feel akin to science fiction – like Swarm Biotactics' cyborg cockroaches that are equipped with specialised [sic] miniature backpacks that enable real-time data collection via cameras for example.

Electrical stimuli should allow humans to control the insects' movements remotely. The aim is for them to provide surveillance information in hostile environments - for example information about enemy positions.

"Our bio-robots - based on living insects - are equipped with neural stimulation, sensors, and secure communication modules," said CEO Stefan Wilhelm. "They can be steered individually or operate autonomously in swarms.
