(Worthy Insights) – Media mogul Rupert Murdoch’s desired plan for succession would have left oldest son Lachlan in control of Fox News and News Corp.

But a recent court ruling and family in-fighting will likely leave his news empire in control of his left-leaning children who have vowed to radically change the network, according to press reports out last week.

The decision will likely mean Fox News, long considered a conservative voice among U.S. media, ultimately embraces a more moderate or liberal voice. [ Source (Read More…) ]

So says the Department of Government Efficiency about almost $5 trillion in taxpayer money that has been spent on who-knows-what.

“The Treasury Access Symbol (TAS) is an identification code linking a Treasury payment to a budget line item (standard financial process). In the Federal Government, the TAS field was optional for — $4.7 Trillion in payments and was often left blank, making traceability almost impossible,” DOGE posted on X. [ Source (Read More…) ]

(Worthy Insights) – New data released from the Florida Agency for Healthcare Administration shows that more than 23,000 babies have been born who would have otherwise been aborted, since the state’s “heartbeat law” went into effect.

Florida has become one of the most pro-life states in the nation since Gov. Ron DeSantis signed the “Heartbeat Protection Act” in 2023.

The law protects unborn babies after their unique heartbeats can be detected, between six-to-eight weeks gestation, and provides resources for young mothers and families. [ Source (Read More…) ]

(Worthy Insights) – Israel presented recordings to the former Biden administration showing that humanitarian aid entered Gaza in January 2024 but reached Hamas terrorists leaders instead of Gazan residents, Israeli Channel 12 reported.

However, despite incriminating evidence that the aid strengthened Hamas, the Biden administration nevertheless pressured Israel to facilitate the daily entry of 250 trucks with aid into the Gaza Strip.

The recordings Israel obtained also unveiled the close ties between the discredited United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) and Hamas. [ Source: All Israel News (Read More…) ]

Fox News Digital spoke to Israeli military experts to see how they viewed what would be in store for Hamas if the ceasefire deal collapses.

“The only alternative is the resumption of the war in Gaza with all the forces that can be allocated,” Maj. Gen. Yaakov Amidror (res.), a former Israeli National Security Council chief and currently a fellow at the Washington-based JINSA think tank, told Fox News Digital. [ Source: Fox News (Read More…) ]

(Worthy Insights) – An asteroid that’s big enough to wipe out a city has a 1-in-43 chance of hitting our planet in the year 2032. But according to new calculations, there’s an even smaller chance that it might crash into the moon instead.

On Feb. 7, NASA scientists increased the likelihood of asteroid 2024 YR4 colliding with Earth on Dec. 22, 2032, nearly doubling the odds from 1.2% to 2.3%.

The potentially hazardous asteroid measures an estimated 180 feet (55 meters) across — about as wide as Walt Disney World’s Cinderella Castle is tall — and is traveling at nearly 30,000 mph (48,000 kph). Although it is too small to end human civilization, 2024 YR4 could still wipe out a major city, releasing about 8 megatons of energy upon impact — more than 500 times the energy released by the atomic bomb that destroyed Hiroshima, Japan. But what if it hurtled into the moon instead? [ Source (Read More…) ]

(Worthy Insights) – A supernatural Christian revival is stirring up once again on American college campuses through Unite US – an evangelistic movement marked by salvations, water baptisms, and worship. Last night at the University of Kentucky, more than 2,000 students responded to the gospel message of Jesus Christ and many took part in spontaneous baptisms.

“It’s hard to believe. This keeps happening. It is insane,” said Unite US speaker and founder of IF:Gathering Jennie Allen.

Unite US was birthed out of a desire to “lift the name of Jesus.” [ Source (Read More…) ]

(Worthy Insights) – One-third of American Jews said they were a target of an antisemitic incident in 2024, and 77 percent said they feel less safe as Jews in the United States, according to a survey released Wednesday by the American Jewish Committee (AJC).

The survey of 1,732 Jews, taken between October 8 and November 29, showed that perceptions of the threat of antisemitism had gotten worse in almost every category compared to 2023, the report’s authors noted. This was the sixth such annual survey conducted by the AJC.

Reports of antisemitic incidents have soared in the US and countries around the world since Hamas launched its war on Israel on October 7, 2023. The findings of the AJC report are in line with those of studies published by the Anti-Defamation League and other Jewish organizations. [ Source (Read More…) ]

(Worthy Insights) – Collectively, Americans now owe a record $1.21 trillion on their credit cards, according to a new quarterly report on household debt from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

Credit card balances jumped by $45 billion in the fourth quarter of 2024, driven in part by holiday spending, and are now 7.3% higher than a year ago.

At the same time, credit card delinquency rates “remained elevated,” the New York Fed researchers found — with 7.18% of balances transitioning to delinquency over the last year. That uptick could indicate “borrowers are having some difficulty repaying,” the researchers said on a press call Wednesday. [ Source: NBC (Read More…) ]

(Worthy Insights) – A U.S. Army Reserve chaplain is asking for the newly appointed Secretary of Veterans Affairs under the Trump administration to revoke the censorship of sermons–a policy adopted by the V.A.– after the chaplain shared a text from Romans 1, where the Apostle Paul addresses homosexuality.

Rusty Trubey, a veteran chaplain at the Coatesville V.A. Medical Center, came under fire after he “felt that God was leading him to preach a two-part sermon series on the first chapter of Romans.”

Trubey preached the second installment of the series, entitled “When a Culture Excludes God,” in June and read Romans 1:23–32. [ Source (Read More…) ]

(Worthy Insights) – Ten years ago, ISIS terrorists marched 21 Christian men to their deaths on a Libyan beach. Their story of faith, sacrifice, and eternal hope is now being memorialized in a new animated film.

February, 2015. Twenty-one men stood on the edge of eternity. On a Mediterranean beach. Dressed in orange. Hands bound. They were given one choice: deny their faith or die. They chose death.

Nermien Riad, founder of the group, Coptic Orphans, who worked with orphans in the village where the men were from and later worked with the martyrs’ families, recalled, “We heard about it as soon as it happened to basically once the video was broadcast, it spread like wildfire.” [ Source (Read More…) ]

It’s an ambitious effort that follows two previous events: Baptize SoCal and Baptize California. The former, held in 2023, saw nearly 4,200 baptisms, while the latter, which unfolded last year, saw more than 12,200 people be immersed.

Now, Francey wants to up the ante and take these local and state events national. [ Source: CBN News (Read More…) ]

(Worthy Insights) – President Trump’s border buildup has been so successful that America’s southern neighbors are dealing with a startling new problem: migrants streaming south, trying to return home after realizing they wouldn’t make it to the U.S.

Panama and Costa Rica officials met this week to discuss details for handling the flow. The steady stream could become a flood as people waiting in Mexico for a shot at the U.S. give up.

The U.S. is trying to help by orchestrating flights to get the migrants out of Central America and back to their home countries. [ Source (Read More…) ]

(Worthy Insights) – Over the last two years, USAID doled out $2.3 billion in “humanitarian assistance” to Omar’s native Somalia. Last year it reported a request for $1.6 billion in aid and even in December 2024, with the Biden administration on the way out the door, it sent an additional $29 million.

USAID support for Somalia had doubled under the Biden administration and with $3.3 billion from USAID allocated in the last 5 years. the threatened withdrawal of funding must have been a painful blow for Omar, who is very close to the Somali regime. Former Somali Prime Minister Hassan Khaire had stated “the interest of Ilhan are not Ilhan’s, it’s not the interest of Minnesota, nor is it the interest of the American people, the interest of Ilhan is that of the Somalian people and Somalia.”

Somalia, along with other Islamic terrorist entities, including the Taliban in Afghanistan, the Houthis in Yemen, and Hamas in Gaza, were among the top beneficiaries of USAID cash. [ Source (Read More…) ]

(Worthy Insights) – Two judges who have issued injunctions against a series of President Donald Trump’s clearly legal executive orders both have records of extremism.

U.S. District Judge George O’Toole Jr. on Thursday temporarily blocked Trump’s federal employee buyout program that originally gave federal workers the option to decide by Thursday to leave their current role with full pay and benefits until September 30, 2025. The memo was issued in accordance with Trump’s goal of shrinking the federal workforce. Several unions sued, arguing the order “violates federal law.” O’Toole issued a ruling Thursday delaying the deadline until at least Monday, though O’Toole “did not express an opinion on the legality of Trump’s buyback program,” according to Fox News.

But former federal prosecutor and current criminal defense attorney Andrew Cherkasky tells The Federalist “historically, buyout programs have been a standard tool for managing federal workforce reductions efficiently and voluntarily … There is no constitutional or statutory prohibition against modifying the terms under which employees receive buyouts.” [ Source: The Federalist (Read More…) ]
