NFL HOPING TO WIN BACK CONSERVATIVES WITH SUPER BOWL PERFORMANCE BY SPANISH-SPEAKING MAN IN DRESS

Babylon Bee October 3, 2025

U.S. — The National Football League is apparently working double time to win back its conservative fanbase by planning a Super Bowl halftime show with a Spanish-speaking man in a dress.

Puerto Rican rapper and singer Bad Bunny has officially signed with the NFL to perform at the Super Bowl halftime show in what experts are calling a desperate bid to attract conservative viewership.

"Conservatives are going to love this," NFL Chairman Roger Goodell said. "They're always talking about the brave Latinx people and gender roles."

Bad Bunny, who champions a new masculinity with his floral dresses, short shorts, and pink skirts, topped the Billboard Hot 100 in 2018. This makes him influential enough to reach conservative minds, said experts.

Conservatives gradually dropped out of football during COVID when the league embraced social justice causes such as defunding the police, Black Lives Matter, and kneeling for the National Anthem. The NFL is hoping to change all that with Bad Bunny.

At publishing time, conservative viewership continued to drop off for unknown reasons.

HALF-FULL REPORT 09/26/25

Order Rises From Chaos

In a world that cannot be predicted, only the free can survive, and only the free will inherit tomorrow.

The world stands on the precipice of a new era, a saeculum marked by the resurgence of moral clarity, decentralized power, and a collective yearning for truth.

The events of recent weeks have illuminated the fractures within the old order and heralded the rise of a generation determined to reclaim the narrative.

On September 21, 2025, State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, became the epicenter of a transformative movement.

Over 100,000 young Americans gathered to honor Charlie Kirk, a conservative activist whose untimely death had galvanized a generation. Overflow crowds filled adjacent arenas, and the event was streamed over 100 million times, underscoring the widespread resonance of the moment.

At the heart of the memorial stood Erika Kirk, whose public forgiveness of her husband's alleged killer became a symbol of grace and moral fortitude. Her act of mercy, delivered amid profound personal anguish, radiated through millions worldwide, converting grief into ordered energy.

Erika's unwavering faith and resilience embodied the archetype of the new saeculum: a generation capable of transforming personal loss into collective purpose.

As the First Turning gained momentum, the old guard responded with characteristic defensiveness. In a striking display of misplaced priorities, left-wing activists rushed to defend Tylenol (acetaminophen) amid emerging concerns about its potential link to autism when used during pregnancy.

Instead of engaging with the growing body of scientific inquiry, they chose to protect the messenger, not the science. Pregnant women, some of whom identified with leftist ideologies, staged public demonstrations consuming Tylenol, symbolically protesting what they perceived as an attack on their body, their choice.

Globally, entrenched powers are exhibiting signs of desperation in the face of shifting dynamics. From Brazil to Russia, leaders are employing legal systems to imprison or silence their opponents, often under the guise of combating corruption or maintaining national security.

These actions serve to eliminate political competition and consolidate power, raising significant concerns about the erosion of democratic norms and the rule of law worldwide.

Few events have signaled the emergence of a new order more clearly than President Donald Trump’s address at the United Nations. His entry into the chamber with the Teleprompter stalled, escalator faltering, was emblematic: institutions that had long claimed moral and organizational authority were visibly fragile.

Trump enacted the principles of the First Turning. He challenged global institutions to justify their existence, demanding that they act with purpose or cede authority. His insistence that nations secure their borders was a call to the disciplined application of civic energy in defense of ordered society.

The Western European delegation bristled, but Eastern Europe and allies like Poland and Hungary recognized the signal: moral and political authority now emanates from those willing to act decisively in the face of chaos.

CHILDREN OF THE ICE AGES

Dr. Jack Wheeler September 22, 2025

[This Monday’s Archive was originally published on April 5, 2013. It is a reminder that we humans are a heroic species, that Providence expects to be and overcome whatever challenges arise to confront us. It was written while I was in Antarctica.]

TTP, April 5, 2013

Yes, that’s me at Wilhelmena Bay, Antarctica. This is a land of ice caps, gigantic glaciers, and frozen earth. The waters of the bay are filled with icebergs, chunks of glaciers calved off and fallen into the sea. In a month or two, the bay will be frozen over with pack ice, but now at the end of the austral summer, it is teeming with life.

Rookeries of gentoo and chinstrap penguins cover the patches of bare earth on the shore. Crabeater and Weddell seals are lounging on the bergs sunning themselves. A pod of humpback whales is slowly skimming the surface, scooping up massive mouthfuls of seawater containing hordes of krill, tiny shrimp upon which they feed.

It is a wondrous world on a sunny summer's day. Soon, however, the sun will vanish over the horizon and not reappear for months, plunging this world into a dark, lifeless, frozen hell. The Ice Ages still exist here, just as they do in the Arctic, where life blooms extravagantly in the northern summer, then vanishes with the sunless winter.

It is a world that seems alien, remote, and exotic to us. Yet it is in this world that our species emerged from evolutionary history. Human beings are children of the Ice Ages - and we make a grave mistake to think we are no longer.

DREAM COME TRUE

This is a dream come true for America and the World, for advocates of freedom and admirers of indomitable heroism.

OUR COUNTERCULTURE REVOLUTION IS HERE AND IT IS A REVIVAL

Salena Zito September 24, 2025

PITTSBURGH — Something big is happening with America’s young people. It has been building for the past two years. It centers on faith, purpose, and a renewal toward more traditional American values.

This new American youth counterculture movement looks very different from the one that burst onto the scene in the 1960s.

Sixty years ago, the youth movement on college campuses set out to upend our culture’s status quo — the rebellion created a seismic cultural and political shift away from post World War II traditionalism.

And for the next 60 years...

EVIL FLOURISHES WHEN REASON IS ABANDONED

Charlotte Cushman September 23, 2025

Reason vs Evil — Reason vs Evil

People celebrating the death of Charlie Kirk are worse than sick—they’re downright evil.

Has there always been this much evil? Or is it worse than it used to be? The answer is not only is it worse, it is much worse, because the philosophical basis of our country has been deteriorating for years.

The United States was created by men of the Enlightenment. The Enlightenment, also known as the Age of Reason, was an intellectual movement in the 17th and 18th centuries that used reason as the primary source of knowledge. In essence, the United States was based on reason, and it is reason that has been abandoned due to bad philosophical ideas.

In the 1920s, the Frankfurt School in Germany taught and expanded upon the ideology of communism by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. It was there that Critical theory, a theory that criticizes modern society, was born.

By holding this belief, that Western Civilization stood in the way of provoking a socialist revolution, the Frankfurt School condemned Western culture. To put it another way, they went about trying to destroy Western Civilization because they viewed reason as a threat.

PUTIN’S FATAL MISTAKE

Frank Friday September 25, 2025

A lot of people are wondering why Donald Trump suddenly seems to have changed his position on the Ukraine War. But it is simple enough.

Amid all the terrible news about Charlie Kirk, few noticed the resignation (or firing) of Deputy Chief of Staff of the Kremlin and Putin’s only sensible advisor -- Dmitry Kozak.

Kozak was Putin’s alter-ego going back to their early days in St. Petersburg. It was Kozak who had been against the Ukraine War from the start, understanding how weak Russia truly is. And it was Kozak who has been trying to work out a peace deal the last several months.

With his firing, President Trump understands Putin has given up on making some kind of arrangement, no matter how one-sided. Instead, Putin is committed to conquering Ukraine.

Until now, President Trump has been solicitous of Putin, hoping he would work with him to find a face-saving end to this horrible war. Instead, he effectively double-crossed Trump, just to gain another eight months of useless fighting. Big mistake.

PUTIN RAISES THE STAKES OF REJECTING PEACE DEAL

Pavel Baev September 23, 2025

Poland Foreign Minister Sikorski at the UN Security Council yesterday (9/22)

Three years and seven months after Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, all international initiatives to bring the war to an end have seemingly discontinued.

U.S. President Donald Trump’s invitation to Russian President Vladimir Putin to make a peace deal at the summit at the Elmendorf-Richardson base in Alaska on August 15 produced a spike of hopes, but has so far been a dead-end (Re: Russia, September 15).

By refusing to depart from his maximalist demands and rejecting Trump’s offers of compromise, Putin has committed to an indefinite continuation of the war—a choice that may be a mistake as grave as his decision to launch the full-scale invasion on February 24, 2022.

Putin has taken a series of aggressive actions toward NATO, raising the stakes of a Russian defeat and attempting to demonstrate the alliance’s weakness to justify the mounting costs of his war against Ukraine (Republic.ru, September 18).

THE PHYSICAL BENEFITS OF HAPPINESS

Dr. Joel Wade September 25, 2025

We are all familiar with the basic guidelines for good health: exercise, eat right – more fruits and veggies, more fish, fewer calories, more fiber, less sugar- don’t smoke, don’t abuse alcohol or drugs.

If we follow these guidelines and maintain an optimal weight, many health problems would be greatly diminished.

But there is another dimension to our health. How we think and feel, how we interact with others, and the kind of activities we spend our time doing can have a huge impact on our physical – not only mental -- health.

We can assess these different habits and behaviors by how they affect our happiness, our relationships, and our resilience. Which helps us to function better? Which helps us to enjoy the company of family and friends? Which helps us to be more effective and to live a better life?

Fortunately, over the years there has been a great deal of very good research that is beginning to show some clear and consistent guidelines for how to practice psychological health, and live a happier and more fulfilling life.

FLASHBACK FRIDAY: RIDING A YAK AT RANGDUM

Rangdum Gompa, Zanskar, August 1993. Ever ridden a yak? Brandon did when was 10 at the Rangdum Tibetan Monastery or Gompa atop a small hill at 13,225 feet high in an extremely remote region of the Himalayas in India called Zanskar. It was part of our Indian Tibet expedition which will be repeating soon – and this time Brandon will be leading the expedition. I’ll just be along for the ride.

CARAVAGGIO’S MEDUSA

Dr. Jack Wheeler September 25, 2025

This masterpiece, of Rennaisance painter Caravaggio (1571-1610) was completed in 1597 and hangs in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence where I took this picture. It is a genius portrayal of one of the most legendary Greek myths, the demigod hero Perseus slaying the gorgon monster Medusa. She was thought unconquerable with her head of snakes, for anyone who gazed upon her was turned to stone. Yet Perseus chose to battle her with a shield that was a bronze mirror on the outside. Thus when they fought, she saw herself in the shield’s reflection, turning herself into stone. The painting depicts the moment of horror she realizes what has happened, which Caravaggio painted on a simulated shield.

A visit to the Uffizi is an absolute must should you ever visit Florence. (Glimpses of Our Breathtaking World #279 photo ©Jack Wheeler)

A FATHER IN CHAD

Dr. Jack Wheeler September 24, 2025

This is the most anti-Marxist picture I have ever taken. I am a White American. He is a Black African in N’Djamena, Chad. And those differences mean nothing compared to our both being fathers.

Look into his soul through his eyes. Look at the tranquility and peaceful joy his soul feels in being the father of his two beautiful children. It is the same with me.

The Left’s purpose is to divide us into tribal differences of hate – white vs. “people of color,” rich vs. poor, employers vs. workers, exploiters vs. exploited, victimizers vs. victims, the anti-white racist hate of Critical Race Theory. Always, always, they focus exclusively on differences, to separate people apart, to hate other different than them. All in the ancient “divide and conquer” scheme to control people’s lives.

Yet the differences between us are so unimportant compared to what we all have in common, our basic humanity. The bond that I have with this man from Chad is so much greater than anything that separates us. Focusing on what we all have in common with our fellow human beings is the way to rid the world of the anti-human hate of the Marxist Left.

THE PARADISE OF ZIHUATANEJO

Dr. Jack Wheeler September 23, 2025

Once a small Mexican fishing village far from everything, Zihuatanejo (zee-wah-tan-ay-ho) – Zee-wat to locals – has become a paradisical escape hatch for many seeking refuge from our pressure-cooker world. 150 miles up the northwest coast of Acapulco, Zee-wat is its own world of peace and serenity.

Stroll on the beach or along the Paseo del Pescador (Fisherman’s Path) with its shops, bars, and restaurants unbothered. Just relax surrounded by flowers, warm water, and blue sky. All the worries elsewhere in Mexico, much less in the US or anywhere else are not here.

The time to come is coming up, the dry season November-May. Prices are a bargain with the peso 5 cents to the dollar. Non-stop flights from multiple cities in the US and Canada. Just a few days here will do wonders for your soul. (Glimpses of Our Breathtaking World #182 photo ©Jack Wheeler)

THE FORTRESS OF LUXEMBOURG

Dr. Jack Wheeler September 22, 2025

Originally built upon Roman fortifications on a rocky promontory in the 900s by the Counts of Luxembourg, the Luxembourg Fortress gained strategic importance located between the French Kingdom and the Hapsburg Empire. By the 1600s it became so impregnable it was called the “Gibraltar of the North.”

It was fought over by so many armies that finally, in establishing the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg’s full independence and neutrality in 1867, Luxembourgers agreed to tear it down.

What you see here is what is left, and is now a World Heritage Site. The Chemin de la Corniche – the promenade along the top of the ramparts overlooking Alzette River and the Old City – is renowned as “Europe’s most beautiful balcony.”

Wedged between France, Belgium, and Germany, small 1,000 square-mile Luxembourg is a haven of peaceful beauty. Come here to stand on these ramparts to experience it yourself. (Glimpses of Our Breathtaking World #233 photo ©Jack Wheeler)

LOGO UPDATE! DEMOCRAT DONKEY NOW CARRYING SNIPER RIFLE

Babylon Bee September 26, 2025

WASHINGTON, D.C. — In an update to make the party's longtime insignia more accurate in reflecting its modern platform and constituency, Democrats unveiled a new logo featuring a donkey holding a sniper rifle.

Following a rash of violent crimes perpetrated by members of the political left, the Democrat Party held a closed-door meeting that determined adding a sniper rifle to the logo would best depict what the party stands for and who it represents.

"It's the perfect illustration of what our party stands for," said Ken Martin, head of the Democrat National Committee. "Everyone has known the donkey as the Democrat mascot for decades, but we felt that it no longer conveyed the message of who we are as a party. Giving the donkey a sniper rifle gives us a harder edge while letting everyone know what our party stands for in 2025."

Prominent Democrats believe the updated logo would make the party's agenda clearer to voters. "When you're running political campaigns, it's important to make your message as clear as possible," said Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer. "We're the party of threats, violence, and murder, so it's only right for our logo to accurately reflect that. There's also a ‘Vote for us, or else' vibe to it, which is perfect."

At publishing time, Democrats had made the logo even more modern and inclusive for its current supporters by revealing that the sniper rifle-carrying donkey depicted was actually a male donkey that underwent gender reassignment surgery so it could pretend to be a female donkey.
