How Does Ḥāyâ Connect James Comey & Severe Weather?

Last updated on: April 30, 2026 at 11:45 pm By Martin Thomas Johnson

The big news so far this week has once again centered on another indictment of former FBI head James Comey. This time, over Director Comey’s Instagram post of seashells arranged in certain numbers. No words or directions towards the president were mentioned in the caption. So far, most legal experts have doubts about the flimsy case and its standing in the court system. Regardless of its validity, Pres. Trump is hell-bent on seeking political revenge. As normal, the president is... Read more

The big news this weekend has been about the WHCA (White House Correspondents’ Association) dinner in Washington. First of all, it was a surprise he even attended since he has boycotted every association dinner while in office. Because of this fact, numerous conspiracy theories have already emerged from both sides of the political aisle, stemming from what happened just as the dinner was starting. The dinner has a historically been a time when politicians, celebrities, and journalists alike gather... Read more

The major news this week continues to focus on Iran. More specifically, regarding the peace talks and the cease-fire that broke down rather quickly, despite President Trump’s claim that everything was going according to his plan and timetable. JD Vance was even preparing to fly to Pakistan to lead a delegation for further peace talks with Iran, at least until they realized Iran was serious about not pursuing peace talks or maintaining a cease-fire in this pointless war. Pres. Trump... Read more

The big news this week centered on Pete Hegseth. A number of senators brought numerous charges of impeachment against him over his abuse of power and his dealings with Iran and other nations. His wilting of earthly power and force is both un-American and anti-Christian. Unsurprisingly, he shared a controversial prayer and quote from the dark movie Pulp Fiction, which twisted scripture to justify his ungodly actions: Revenge Abuse of power Deception Both Pete Hegseth and President Trump have...

This week, there’s been a lot of news about the conflict in the Middle East, especially as the war continues between Hezbollah in Lebanon and Israel. Israel has brutally bombed Lebanon in their blood thirsty pursuit to annihilate its enemy. Despite a supposedly cease-fire in the Iran war, Vice President JD Vance elaborated that, “Lebanon is not part of that cease-fire.” Their hope is that through military might, they can achieve peace or at least a cease-fire. However, God’s people... Read more

The big news this weekend has been about the Iranian peace talks in Pakistan between JD Vance and an Iranian delegation. The historic meeting is the first time since 1979 that a high-ranking US official has met with the Iranian leadership. After a 21-hour all-night discussion, the meeting ended with no agreement or compromises between the two parties, and the stalled talks show no end to the ongoing war between the United States and Iran. Furthermore, despite a temporary... Read more

The big news today has been about the changes coming to America’s selective service and how it will affect the draft. All boys have always been required to register with the selective service when they turn 18 in the United States. I also had to deny my dual citizenship so that I could not be drafted into the German military. However, the upcoming changes will automatically enroll all men 18 years old to 25 into the selective service to help... Read more

One of the big news items this weekend has been about the latest shakeup in President Trump’s administration. Rumors have been swirling about Pam Bondi’s fate since she and the president visited the Supreme Court to hear the court’s argument on birthright citizenship. However, there have been complaints and pushback by MAGA against Pam Bondi for a while. Most recently, for her handling of the Epstein files.

One of the biggest newsmakers this weekend has been the news about Tiger Woods and his latest accident due to a DUI. The golfer has a long history with the area I live in. He won his first Masters in 1997, about a mile from a rehabilitation hospital I was in after my accident. He has also done a lot of community and golf-related projects in the city of Augusta, Georgia, as well. Although he is not from the community,... Read more
