Today, a U.S. delegation representing President Donald Trump’s administration held a celebration in West Jerusalem inaugurating the U.S. moving its embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to West Jerusalem and simultaneously recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. The decision resulting in this historic occasion had been announced last December by President Trump. It was a promise he had made often in his campaign for the presidency in 2016. Trump called this move today “a great day for Israel.” No… Read more
Webb Simpson Wins The Players Championship

The 2012 U.S. Open champion Webb Simpson held onto most of his seven-stroke lead today in The Players Championship to win the coveted title and nearly $2 million. He played smart, conservative golf until the last hole. But it didn’t make much difference when his six iron on the par four hole rolled across the left side of the green and into the water. So, he had to settle for a double bogey six and a four shot win with… Read more

Newly-bearded Webb Simpson set a scoring record today at The Players Championship at TPC Sawgrass by capturing a seven-stroke lead with a 54-hole total of 19-under par 197 going into the final round tomorrow. He had complete control of his game all day except for running a few putts too far past the hole as the greens that seemed to exceed 13 on the Stimpmeter as we were told on TV earlier in the day. The closest players now chasing… Read more

Webb Simpson–the 2012 U.S. Open Champion with three other PGA Tour wins–tied the tournament record 63 yesterday at the PGA Tour’s marquee event, The Players Championship at the TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra, Florida. It gave him a 36-hole total of 129 with whopping five-stroke lead starting today’s third round. That is amazing golf on such a precision golf course. Trouble lurks all over that Sawgrass layout, with water and sand yawning to gather up golf balls. In fact, Simpson’s… Read more
Iran Gains Clout in Lebanon

Monday, President Trump announced he was pulling the U.S. out of the Iran nuclear deal, which is called the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). The other nations in the deal–UK, France, Germany, Russia, and China–are remaining in it if Iran stays. One of Trump’s reasons for claiming this JCPOA, engineered by the Obama administration, is “disastrous” is that it does not address Iran’s influence in the Middle East. Trump claims Iran is the greatest “terrorist nation” on earth. Actually,… Read more
Again–Jesus Ascended to Heaven from the Mount of Olives, Not from Galilee

Bible-based films should stick to the Bible. That is, when the Bible states something as historical fact, it should not be changed in a Bible-based film. I blogged before, that the movie “Risen” wrongly has Jesus ascending to heaven from Galilee. I’ll go over this again. I’m going to restate this here because I am wondering how Randall Wallace and Mel Gibson are going to have Jesus’ heavenly ascension in their yet future film they are working on. It is… Read more
Trump Saying “Fake News” Hacks Me Off

To be discreet, I should write this title, “Trump Saying ‘Fake News’ Is Disturbing.” But that doesn’t get peoples’ attention. Folks, this is serious business. We’ve got a president in the Black House who doesn’t really believe in our form of government. See my post on January 26, 2017, right after Trump was inaugurated as president, “Do President Donald Trump and Steve Bannon Believe in Our Democracy?” Donald Trump has been the U.S. president, now, for over fifteen months. He… Read more
I Was Wrong–Trump Hasn’t Resigned

One year ago today I made a rare prediction. I predicted that Donald Trump would resign the U.S. presidency within one year. In that post I said, “I’m going to make a prediction: Donald Trump will resign the U.S. presidency within a year. In doing so, I think he could throw up a smokescreen, giving as the sole reason for his departure that the federal government is treating his financial empire unfairly. That is another investigation that has just begun.”… Read more
Trump Ends U.S. Participation in Iran Nuclear Agreement

U.S. President Donald Trump announced today that he is pulling the U.S. out of the agreement that Iran signed in 2015 with the U.S., UK, France, Germany, Russia, and China to end Iran’s development of nuclear fuel that could soon be made into nuclear weapons. The result of this agreement engineered by the U.S. President Obama administration, called the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), is that the U.S. and other nations would end their economic and trade sanctions against… Read more
Will Cohen Flip?
May 6, 2018 By Kermit Zarley

After reading today’s article about his business history in the New York Times, it’s looking more and more as if Michael Cohen will “flip” and thus cooperate with the FBI division in the southern district of New York and probably with Special Counsel Robert Mueller in the Russian probe. It seemed very improbable until recently because Cohen has been saying all along that it would “take a bullet” for Donald Trump, he loves him that much. But love can be… Read more
