FBI launches Tesla threats task force: ‘This is domestic terrorism’

(Worthy Insights) – The FBI said on Monday that it has launched a task force to investigate scores of attacks targeting Tesla, the electric vehicle company headed by Trump administration DOGE chief Elon Musk.

The announcement of the task force, which is operating in conjunction with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, came hours after a bomb squad found multiple incendiary devices at a Tesla showroom in Austin, Texas, the same city where the company has its headquarters.

That incident is the latest in a series of attacks and vandalism on Tesla properties related to CEO Musk’s DOGE team. [ Source (Read More…) ]

Israeli security cabinet greenlights independence for 13 Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria

(Worthy Insights) – Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich announced on Saturday that the security cabinet had greenlighted a plan to separate 13 existing Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria, internationally known as the West Bank, from their neighboring communities.

“We continue to lead a revolution of normalization and regulation in the settlements. Instead of hiding and apologizing – we raise the flag, build and settle. This is another important step on the path to actual sovereignty in Judea and Samaria,” Smotrich stated in a post on 𝕏.

Smotrich, who also serves as a minister within the Defense Ministry, argued that the move was designed to address the “great difficulties in their daily management” that these Jewish settlements had previously faced. [ Source (Read More…) ]

US could hit debt ceiling as early as mid-July, study shows

(Worthy Insights) – The US could default on its $36 trillion debt as early as July and no later than October without congressional action, according to a study released Monday.

The Bipartisan Policy Center estimated that members of Congress will have to vote to increase the debt ceiling before the limit is breached for the federal government to be able to keep paying its bills on time.

The four-month window reflects multiple factors that the nonpartisan group analyzed, including the amount of tax revenue collected starting in April, the devastation wrought by the Atlantic hurricane season beginning in early summer, tariff revenues and the overall strength of the US economy.

There’s a ‘vast underground city’ below Egypt’s Giza pyramids, scientists’ wild theory claims — but experts debunk it as ‘fake news’

(Worthy Insights) – Researchers claim they’ve discovered the legendary Halls of Amenti in a “vast city” beneath Egypt’s Pyramids of Giza — a wild theory that has perplexed archeological experts who dismiss the claims as “fake news.”

Italian and Scottish scientists studying the pyramid of Khafre say the “groundbreaking study has redefined the boundaries of satellite data analysis and archeological exploration,” according to spokesperson Nicole Ciccolo.

Aptly named the Khafre Project, Corrado Malanga from Italy’s University of Pisa and Filippo Biondi of the University of Strathclyde in Scotland led the expedition to discover the Giza Plateau’s second-largest pyramid.[ Source (Read More…) ]

Report: Israel eyeing full-scale, months-long occupation

(Worthy Insights) – Israeli political and military leaders are considering plans for a fresh ground campaign in Gaza that could include a military occupation of the entire enclave for months or longer, according to Washington Post reporting. The plans would mark a significant escalation in Israel’s 17-month operation.

Current and former Israeli officials briefed on the matter told the Washington Post that the new tactics would likely include direct military control of humanitarian aid, targeting Hamas’s civilian leadership, and evacuating women, children and vetted noncombatants to “humanitarian bubbles” while laying siege to those who remain. This approach would intensify tactics first employed last year in northern Gaza.

Israeli officials emphasized they are still waiting for the outcome of ceasefire talks and no decisions have been made on whether – and how – to escalate the current phase of the offensive, which has so far consisted mostly of aerial bombardment, the Washington Post reported.

Report: Egypt willing to temporarily relocate 500,000 Gazans to northern Sinai

(Worthy Insights) – Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi has approved a plan to temporarily relocate up to 500,000 Gaza residents—approximately a quarter of the enclave’s population—to a designated city in northern Sinai, Hezbollah-affiliated Lebanese newspaper Al-Akhbar reported Friday morning.

According to the report, which has not been confirmed by any other sources, the move would require Egypt to open its border to Gaza residents wishing to leave the territory. The reported statement by el-Sissi was said to have been made during recent Arab summits.

The purported Egyptian position has reportedly raised concerns in Jordan, which has stated it is prepared to offer limited aid only to families of the wounded and only on a temporary basis. [ Source (Read More…) ]

Supreme Court to Hear Case of Schools Trying to ‘Cut the Parents Out’ on LGBTQ Issues

(Worthy Insights) – A significant case involving parental rights and LGBTQ+ education is set to be heard by the U.S. Supreme Court as early as this spring and could have wide-reaching implications for religious beliefs and public education across the country.

At the heart of the case is a group of parents in Montgomery County, Maryland, challenging the school district’s decision to include LGBTQ-themed storybooks in preschool and elementary classrooms. The parents, representing various faiths including Christianity, Islam, and Judaism, argue the books conflict with their religious beliefs and are seeking to opt their children out of these lessons.

The books approved by the Montgomery County Board of Education in 2022 include titles such as My Rainbow, a story about a Black transgender girl; Uncle Bobby’s Wedding, a story about a young girl who learns about her uncle marrying another man; and Pride Puppy, which follows a family and their dog at a Pride Parade.

Fetterman to JNS: I fully support partnering with Israel to bomb Iran’s nuclear facilities

(Worthy Insights) – Over the last several years and particularly since Oct. 7, 2023, Israel has felt isolated diplomatically. Perhaps most painful for the Jewish state has been waning support among American Democrats, once stalwart defenders of Israel.

A near-lone voice from the left flank of the party has been Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman. A towering giant easily recognized by his hooded sweatshirt attire, Fetterman has stood up for Israel time and again when other members of his party refused to do so.

When it comes to Israel, Fetterman is about as hawkish as it gets, willing to support it in its war efforts against Iran and its network of terror proxies, including Hamas and Hezbollah. [ Source (Read More…) ]

New Study Challenges Church Decline Narrative, Suggests Possible Growth in 2025

(Worthy Insights) – A new study is pushing back against the common belief that the church in the U.S. is in decline, suggesting it may actually be growing again while making clear it remains relevant even among non-Christians. The Barna State of the Church report, created in partnership with Gloo, reveals that weekly church attendance had largely plateaued in the U.S. since 2017 and stood at 28 percent of U.S. adults in 2024 — yet preliminary data from early 2025 “suggests a potential uptick in weekly church attendance” to approximately 32 percent.

In another positive sign for people of faith, 65 percent of American adults say they disagree with the statement that the “church is no longer relevant in today’s world.” While 88 percent of practicing Christians disagree with the statement, so do 46 percent of non-Christians.

Even 67 percent of non-practicing Christians — those who identify as Christian but who rarely attend church and say faith is not important in their lives — disagree with the statement. [ Source (Read More…) ]

What the JFK assassination files have revealed so far – including apparent KGB probe into Lee Harvey Oswald

(Worthy Insights) – The long-awaited release of tens of thousands of files on the assassination of President John F. Kennedy Tuesday night sparked a desperate search for new clues in the shocking 62-year-old crime — but much of the trove turned out to confirm information long known.

Gerald Posner, the author of the best-selling 1993 book “Case Closed: Lee Harvey Oswald and the Assassination of JFK,” told The Post in a phone interview on Wednesday he was “about 22,000 pages” into the newly released files — but had yet to see a bombshell piece of evidence.

“I haven’t seen anything yet that is real news, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t something,” Posner said. “The biggest question I have as I go through is, ‘Why were these classified for so many years?’ It’s pretty preposterous.” [ Source (Read More…) ]

Trump says administration will ‘take a look’ at church vandalism in Wichita

(Worthy Insights) – President Donald Trump said his administration will “take a look” at a recent Catholic Church attack as part of its commitment to “eradicating anti-Christian bias” nationwide.

EWTN’s Owen Jensen pressed Trump Monday on what action his administration is taking following the vandalism of St. Patrick’s Church in Wichita, Kansas, over the weekend.

Last Saturday’s desecration of the Catholic Church resulted in the breaking of a statue, the burning of an American flag, candles damaged, a window smashed and a Satanic website was reportedly scrawled on the wall. [ Source (Read More…) ]
