Florida AG Sues Planned Parenthood for Lying About Abortion Pills
|
|
Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier filed a lawsuit Tuesday against the Planned Parenthood abortion business for lying about abortion pills and falsely claiming they’re safe. The lawsuit accuses Planned Parenthood of deceptive marketing practices in promoting chemical abortion pills, alleging the organization misled women by downplaying the risks of severe complications.
The suit, filed in state court, claims Planned Parenthood violated Florida’s Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act by distributing materials that falsely portrayed the abortion pills as safe and effective without adequately disclosing potential dangers. Uthmeier’s office said the allegations stem from an investigation revealing that Planned Parenthood’s promotional content omitted critical information about adverse events, including hemorrhage, infection and the need for emergency interventions.
“It is vile that Planned Parenthood cares more about lining their pockets than providing women with factual information about the health risks of chemical abortion drugs,” said Attorney General James Uthmeier. “When it comes to health and safety in Florida, we won’t tolerate blatant lies using fabricated medical ‘facts’ that have no scientific basis.” Uthmeier’s lawsuit seeks injunctive relief to halt the deceptive practices, civil penalties and restitution for affected women.

Abba, we PRAISE You for placing men and women of God in places of governmental authority to bring change! We ask for favor to fall upon Florida Attorney General, James Uthmeier, as he brings a lawsuit against Planned Parenthood for lies regarding the abortion pill. May the real hidden dangers of this drug and the damaging affects on women's bodies be exposed through this case. Bring restitution for those who have suffered. May all deception hidden by pharmaceutical companies be brought to light, not only for the abortion pill but for every drug that affects the population negatively yet continues to be marketed for financial gain! In the powerful Name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen and Amen.
"For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be known or brought out into the open." (Luke 8:17)

UN Terror Network Exposed: 10-Year Investigation Finds 500 Employees 'Involved in Terrorism'
|
|
A ten-year investigation has uncovered the truth about terrorist infiltration and indoctrination within UNRWA. UN Watch discovered that 500 employees of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian refugees were "involved in terrorism. incitement, and membership in extremist organizations."
This week's "Global Lane" commentary contends that it's time for the U.S. government to permanently freeze the $400 million annually given to the UN agency, "which has been used by terrorists to spread antisemitism and violence." Can UNRWA be dissolved and replaced with "something better, free from corruption and hate"?
On October 24, 2025, during a press conference in Israel, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated that the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees, UNRWA, has become a subsidiary of Hamas. He emphasized that the terrorist organization should not play any role in governing Gaza's future.
In response to Rubio's remarks, the Swiss monitoring group UN Watch recently released a map claiming to expose the systemic infiltration of UNRWA by terrorist organizations, most notably Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad. UN Watch asserts that it conducted 10 years of research, discovering that nearly 500 UNRWA employees were involved in terrorism, incitement, and membership in extremist organizations. The group is calling on the United States to "take definitive action to dismantle UNRWA."
UNRWA has responded to these allegations by denying any systemic infiltration and emphasizing that its over 30,000 staff members overwhelmingly adhere to UN neutrality principles. (CBN) Read more here.

Thank You, God our Father, that things hidden are coming into light. We ask You to release your judgement over this infiltration that the American taxpayer has been forced to fund. Deliver verdicts from your Court of Justice against the enemy within the UN as well as the UN at large. Fully expose this evil network and deliver us from evil.
“To execute vengeance on the nation and punishment to the peoples.” (Psalm 149:7)

Trump formally requests pardon for Netanyahu
|
|
President Donald Trump penned a letter to his Israeli counterpart formally requesting a pardon for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, President Isaac Herzog’s office announced Wednesday afternoon.
According to a spokesperson for the Israeli head of state, Herzog received the letter Wednesday morning.
Touting his administration’s Gaza peace plan as delivering the “peace that has been sought for at least 3,000 years,” Trump urged Herzog to pardon Netanyahu, both in recognition of the Israeli premier’s leadership during more than two years of war, and in order to enable Netanyahu to help negotiate additional peace deals under the framework of the Abraham Accords.
“As the Great State of Israel and the amazing Jewish People move past the terribly difficult times of the last three years, I hereby call on you to fully pardon Benjamin Netanyahu, who has been a formidable and decisive War Time Prime Minister, and is now leading Israel into a time of peace, which includes my continued work with key Middle East leaders to add many additional countries to the world changing Abraham Accords.”
Trump lamented that given Netanyahu’s regular court appearances, his attention was being “unnecessarily diverted” from important foreign policy questions. The American president also reiterated his criticism of the cases against Netanyahu, calling the ongoing trial “a political, unjustified prosecution.” “Now that we have achieved these unprecedented successes, and are keeping Hamas in check, it is time to let Bibi unite Israel by pardoning him, and ending that lawfare once and for all.”
President Herzog’s office responded by saying that while he holds “President Trump in the highest regard and continues to express his deep appreciation for President Trump’s unwavering support for Israel,” Herzog will only consider a presidential pardon if Netanyahu himself files a request.
“Alongside and not withstanding this, as the Office of the President has made clear throughout, anyone seeking a Presidential pardon must submit a formal request in accordance with the established procedures.” (World Israel News) Read more here.

Abbas, You are the God of Justice, Your heart is for truth to prevail in every circumstance. We ask You to be present in all the accusations of wrongdoing by PM Netanyahu, reveal and bring into the light anything that is hiding in darkness, let the truth be known. Father God, we ask You to illuminate the lies that are spoken as truth, reveal any bias that exists in this prosecution and how it is impacting the attitudes in the court, reveal any minds that have already been made up regardless of the proof. Jesus, the US has just gone through a judiciary that was biased against the President, we pray that You will not let that happen to Bibi Netanyahu, reveal the darkness behind any of this. We ask this in the name El Roi, the God Who Sees everything.
"Surely he recognizes deceivers; and when
he sees evil, does he not take note?"

Reopening the Government: Here’s What to Know About the Impact
|
|
|
After 40 days of political gridlock, lawmakers in the U.S. Senate have reached a deal to reopen the federal government, clearing the way for the longest shutdown in U.S. history to end, while setting in motion a complex process to restart suspended programs, pay furloughed workers, and repair economic damage.
The Senate voted 60–40 on Nov. 10 to advance a temporary funding measure that consists of a “clean” stopgap bill that finances most federal agencies through Jan. 30, giving appropriators time to come up with long-term bills to fund the government through the entire fiscal year 2026, which runs through the end of September.
The agreement also includes three full-year appropriations bills wrapped into one “minibus,” which covers the Department of Agriculture, Department of Veterans Affairs, military construction, the Food and Drug Administration, and the legislative branch.
The House is expected to pass the legislation this week, with President Donald Trump indicating he will sign it.
“We’re going to be opening up our country,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office on Nov. 10. “It’s too bad it was slow, but we’ll be opening up our country very quickly.”

Holy Spirit, we ask You to send out Your angels to speak to the hearts of all of those in the House of Representatives, we ask You to have Your way in this upcoming vote. We ask You to silence the voice of the enemy that would sow anger, stubbornness or rebellion. We ask You to bring down any strongholds that have been built during this shutdown, clear the way for peace and flexibility to work together in getting this bill signed. We ask this in the name Yahweh Jireh, The Lord Will Provide.

1. IAEA urges Iran to grant immediate access to nuclear material stocks - i24nws
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) on Wednesday called on Iran to grant its inspectors immediate access to its nuclear material inventories, particularly its reserves of highly enriched uranium.
In a confidential report obtained by AFP, the UN watchdog described this verification as “crucial” to address ongoing concerns about the transparency of Tehran’s nuclear activities.
According to the report, the IAEA has “lost continuity of knowledge” over Iran’s previously declared nuclear materials since the outbreak of the twelve-day conflict that began on June 13, following an Israeli strike against Iranian targets. (Read more)

2. Sharaa says Trump backs demand for Israel to withdraw forces from Syrian territory - Times of Israel
Syria’s leader Ahmed al-Sharaa said Monday that US President Donald Trump supports his insistence on a complete Israeli withdrawal from Syrian territory as a condition for a comprehensive security deal between the long-warring neighboring countries.
Speaking to The Washington Post after becoming the first Syrian leader to meet a US president in Washington, Sharaa said Trump would “push as quickly as possible in order to reach a solution for this.”
Israeli troops took up several positions in southwestern Syria following the fall of the Bashar Assad regime last year, in what Jerusalem has said is a temporary security measure. (Read more)

5. Settlers launch major arson attack against Palestinian land in central West Bank
-The Times of Israel
Dozens of Israeli settlers launched a large-scale arson attack on Palestinian lands east of Tulkarem in the West Bank, the Palestinian Authority’s official Wafa news site reports.
A factory building in an industrial zone, surrounding agricultural lands, and a number of tractors were torched in the attack, footage from the scene shows.
Wafa says the settlers proceeded to attack a Bedouin gathering in the area, as residents were working to put out the fires.
The Palestinian news outlet said IDF troops arrived at the scene and prevented Palestinians from putting out some of the fires.
There is no immediate comment from the IDF (Read more)

1. Venezuelan military preparing guerrilla response in case of US attack - Reuters
Venezuela is deploying weapons, including decades-old Russian-made equipment, and is planning to mount a guerrilla-style resistance or sow chaos in the event of a U.S. air or ground attack, according to sources with knowledge of the efforts and planning documents seen by Reuters.
The approach is a tacit admission of the South American country's shortage of personnel and equipment. U.S. President Donald Trump has suggested the possibility of ground operations in Venezuela, saying "the land is going to be next" following multiple strikes on alleged drug-trafficking vessels in the Caribbean and a large U.S. military build-up in the region. He later denied he was considering strikes inside Venezuela.
Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, in power since 2013, says Trump is seeking to oust him and that Venezuelan citizens and the military will resist any such attempt. (Read more)

Lord God, we ask that You give President Trump wisdom, clarity, and understanding while dealing with this hostile government in Venezuela. We continue to pray that all violence would cease and desist, in Jesus' name, and we ask that You would help us through this difficult situation, amen.
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take. Don’t be impressed with your own wisdom. Instead, fear the Lord and turn away from evil. Then you will have healing for your body and strength for your bones.” (Proverbs 3:5-8 NLT)

2. DOJ launches investigation into UC Berkeley unrest outside Turning Point USA event - Fox News
The Department of Justice has launched an investigation into unrest that unfolded outside a Turning Point USA event at University of California, Berkeley on Monday. Mob assault and thuggish intimidation of attendees exercising their First Amendment rights are unacceptable," Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon wrote in a post announcing the probe on X.
The atmosphere was tense as left-wing agitators swarmed Zellerbach Hall where the event, which was the last stop on the "This is the Turning Point" tour, was held. Attendees were forced to navigate a mob of hostile agitators in order to enter and exit the event, while police held back a screaming and sometimes violent mob.
The event featured actor Rob Schneider and author Frank Turek, a Christian mentor of the organization's late founder, Charlie Kirk. (Read more)

3. Trump Announces Historic Move to Slash Obesity Drug Costs Nationwide - Million Voices
President Donald Trump is pitching a simple promise: make lifesaving medicines affordable and accessible, starting with popular weight-loss drugs. His team says new agreements with Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly will bring down prices and open the door for more coverage, including for seniors on Medicare. The headline numbers, lower self-pay prices through a new TrumpRx channel and capped costs for many Medicare users, aim straight at families squeezed by medical bills.
The timing is no accident. GLP-1 medicines like Wegovy and Zepbound have reshaped treatment for obesity and related conditions but also strained wallets. By tying policy to everyday costs, the White House is framing “Make America Healthy Again” as a real-world relief plan, not just a slogan. The public rollout has included a social-media push from the official account and a blitz of coverage across business and health news. (Read more)

4. White House responds after Democrats release Epstein emails, redact victim’s name - DML News
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has released a statement, in reaction to the three Epstein emails released by Democrats on the House Oversight Committee Wednesday morning.
In each of the three emails, President Donald Trump is mentioned. In one of the emails, dated Jan. 31, 2019, Epstein admits that now-President Donald Trump told Epstein’s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell to stop recruiting young girls from the spa at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort.
In a statement released to the media, Leavitt blasted Democrats and plainly stated that the redacted name was Giuffre.
Leavitt wrote:
The Democrats selectively leaked emails to the liberal media to create a fake narrative to smear President Trump. The ‘unnamed victim’ referenced in these emails is the late Virginia Giuffre, who repeatedly said President Trump was not involved in any wrongdoing whatsoever and ‘couldn’t have been friendlier’ to her in their limited interactions.
The fact remains that President Trump kicked Jeffrey Epstein out of his club decades ago for being a creep to his female employees, including Giuffre. These stories are nothing more than bad-faith efforts to distract from President Trump’s historic accomplishments, and any American with common sense see right through this hoax and clear distraction from the government opening back up again.” (Read more)

We thank you, Lord that these emails actually exonerate President Donald Trump that he tried to stop these horrendous acts from happening and he helped authorities with their investigation during that time. We come against these lies that they would be torn down and dismantled and the public would not believe them in Jesus' name amen.

5. Trump hit with fierce backlash over comments on H-1B visas - DML News
President Trump in a new interview defended bringing in foreign workers on visas, arguing the U.S. did not have enough people with “certain talents” to do particular jobs.
Fox News host Laura Ingraham pressed Trump on the issue of H-1B visas, which has been a point of division among conservatives. Ingraham argued that bringing in thousands of foreign workers would hurt efforts to raise wages for Americans.
“Well, I agree, but you also do have to bring in talent when a country…” Trump said in the interview, which aired Tuesday on “The Ingraham Angle.”
The host interjected, “Well, we have plenty of talented people here.” “No, you don’t,” the president replied. The video has gotten 1.2 million views and generated over 4,700 comments. Many conservatives are upset by Trump’s comments. (Read more)

Lord we pray that President Trump would always do what’s best for our American citizens. We pray that proper actions would be taken to uphold and protect the rights we have here as legal citizens of America. We thank you, Lord, for the freedoms and privileges we have as citizens of this great country. And we pray that all representatives would take these privileges seriously and protect them, in Jesus' name, amen.

Stupidocrisy: The NYC Mandate
The Daily Jot, Bill Wilson, November 12, 2025
New York just elected a mayor who says, “We will prove that there is no problem too large for government to solve.” In his victory speech he promised “the most ambitious agenda to tackle the cost of living crisis,” including to “freeze the rents… make buses fast and free, and deliver universal childcare.” He vowed to “hire thousands more teachers,” “cut waste from a bloated bureaucracy,” “create a Department of Community Safety,” and “hold bad landlords to account.” Wrap it together and you get a city hall that fixes prices, shapes education, controls transit revenue, expands headcount, and grows regulatory muscle, all while promising nothing will be too big for government. Government greater than God, right?
Mamdani’s platform fills in the blanks. The website pushes a rent freeze, fare-free buses, universal childcare, and city-owned grocery stores all to “lower costs.” A $30 minimum wage is the momentum line. To pay for it, he proposes taxing “corporations and the 1%.” Reporters tracking the math note a two-point city income-tax hike on million-dollar earners and lifting the corporate rate target to 11.5 percent, matching New Jersey. Analysts peg the combined top income-tax rate near 16.8 percent. That puts New York above every other state. Fans say the rich won’t leave. Reality says high earners and headquarters do arithmetic. When your plan relies on a smaller, flight-prone base to fund permanent entitlements, volatility becomes policy. Read More

Kristi Noem announces more than 150 illegal immigrant sex offenders arrested in massive Florida crackdown

DHS secretary credits partnership with Ron DeSantis as model for operations targeting child predators
|
|
|
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced Wednesday that more than 150 illegal immigrant sex offenders were arrested in Florida as part of a broader effort to crack down on crime with help from state and local officials.
"We're making America more safe and secure every day, and that's a wonderful mission to have," Noem said on "Fox & Friends."
Operation Criminal Return targeted child sex offenders accused of crimes including sexual assault, battery and attempted homicide, she revealed, telling Fox News’ Lawrence Jones that the operation’s success was largely due to help from Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.
"These 150 individuals will be gone off of our streets. Our kids will be safer, and this partnership with Governor DeSantis in Florida is a model that we want to replicate across the country," she continued.
"These individuals should have never been in our country to begin with. The fact that they were sexual deviants and perverts, and now we've gotten them off of our streets… it's remarkable, and we need to do more of it."
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is also surging resources to other areas across the U.S., including cities like Chicago, where Democratic officials have long resisted the Trump administration's crackdown.
According to DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin, crime in Chicago has dropped since the start of Operation Midway Blitz, with homicides down 16%, shootings down 35%, robberies down 41% and other crimes declining as well. (Fox News) Read more here.

France to assist PA in drafting constitution for Palestinian state
|
|
|
France announced Tuesday it would join forces with the Palestinian Authority to draft a constitution for a potential Palestinian State, Reuters reported. The decision followed a meeting in Paris between President Emmanuel Macron and Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas.
The French leader said the panel would examine legal, constitutional, and institutional questions that he argued must be addressed before any political transition can take place. Macron framed the move as an opportunity for Israelis and Palestinians to “live side by side in peace and security.” He referred to Abbas as a close partner and said France intends to stay involved in efforts to design what he described as “the day after.”
Several Western governments, including France, formally recognized a Palestinian state earlier this year, a shift driven in part by criticism of Israel’s conduct during the Gaza war and by renewed calls to advance a two-state formula.
Israel, despite accepting a US-mediated ceasefire with Hamas, has continued to reject recognition of Palestinian statehood, with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu referring to such recognition after the Oct. 7 massacre as a “reward for terror.”
In July 2024, the Knesset voted overwhelmingly 67-8 to reject the establishment of a Palestinian state.
Abbas told Macron that the PA remains committed to creating a democratic, demilitarized state that includes Gaza, and said he is prepared to cooperate with President Donald Trump and additional international actors to move any peace initiatives forward. (World
Israel News) Read more here.
Father God, sadly, this agreement between France and the Palestinian Authority, peaceful as it sounds, will only lead us one step closer to the day of Armageddon. We ask, dear Lord, that You would forgive President Emmanuel Macron for his foolish ways. In the effort to bring peace to this region, he has only brought us closer to war.
We thank You, Abba Father God, that Your Word is true and does not lie; and is the
foundation for all of us who believe in You as our Savior and our Lord. Your Word states that the land belongs to the Jew, so we rest our case on that fact. In Your Name, Holy One, we offer this prayer, amen and amen!
"I will also gather all nations,
And bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat;
And I will enter into judgment with them there
On account of My people, My heritage Israel,
Whom they have scattered among the nations;
They have also divided up My land." (Joel 3:2)

House to vote on bill to end shutdown around 7 p.m. ET Wednesday, Rep. Scalise says
|
|
|
|
The U.S. House of Representatives will vote early Wednesday evening to end the longest government shutdown in history, Rep. Steve Scalise, R-La., said.
“We’ll start the process probably around 4, 5 o’clock. The actual vote on the bill to fund the government will probably come later, around 7 o’clock,” the House majority leader told CNBC. “There’ll be, I’m sure, a good, thorough debate, but it’s so important that this gets done.”
If the spending bill gets through as planned, it will end an impasse that has lasted more than six weeks, resulting in furloughs for government workers, the closing of all federal government activities, the suspension of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program and increased delays at airports heading into the holiday travel season.
The Senate on Monday approved the package, which would keep the government open until Jan. 30 and provide funding for agriculture, military programs and legislative agencies, while also providing back pay for workers affected by the shutdown. (CNBC) Read more

Abba, the US House of Representatives needs Your hand of mercy tonight. We ask You to guide and direct every decision made and vote cast on the bill to reopen the Government. We ask You to send Holy Spirit out to pour Your truth and justice into the hearts of each congressman, give them a willingness to do what is best for the entire country and not just their party. Father God, intervene in the hearts of those debating if this bill should be passed, show them Your heart, give them Your eyes to see the damage being done through this shutdown. Jesus, we ask You to pour conviction into each heart that is "digging in its heels", demanding their own way even when they know the harm being done to our nation. Turn them around, change their minds. We ask this in the name Yahweh Rapha, The Word Who Heals minds, spirits, bodies and emotions.

Sun Unleashes Strongest Solar Flare of 2025 From Sunspot AR4274

Solar Storm Causes Radio Blackout Over Europe, Africa
Sun unleashes strongest solar flare of 2025—X5.1-class eruption from sunspot AR4274 sparks R3 radio blackouts across Africa and Europe, CME racing toward Earth.
The sun produced its strongest solar flare of 2025, an X5.1-class eruption from sunspot AR4274 triggering severe radio disruptions across continents. The major event erupted November 11, releasing intense X-rays and extreme ultraviolet radiation toward Earth. This powerful outburst represents most intense eruption since October 2024, with accompanying coronal mass ejection racing toward Earth at 4.4 million mph.
Understanding the Strongest Solar Flare of 2025
The X5.1-class eruption peaked at 5 a.m. EST from highly active sunspot AR4274, which has produced multiple powerful outbursts over recent days. This magnitude ranks near top of solar flare intensity scale, with X-class representing most powerful category. The strongest solar flare of 2025 released surge of energetic radiation causing widespread ionospheric disruption.
Sunspot AR4274 emerged as prolific flare producer during Solar Cycle 25, with this eruption marking fiery culmination of extraordinary week for solar activity.
Impact on Earth’s Communications Infrastructure
The powerful eruption triggered R3-level (strong) radio blackouts across Africa and Europe, disrupting high-frequency communications on sunlit hemisphere. X-rays and extreme ultraviolet radiation ionized upper atmosphere, causing signal degradation affecting aviation, maritime navigation, and emergency services. This strongest solar flare of 2025 impact demonstrates vulnerability of modern technological infrastructure to solar events. Radio blackout severity increased from previous X1.7 and X1.2 events on November 9-10.(NASA Space News) Read More
