Dallas Mavericks Owner Mark Cuban has confirmed to ESPN that he directed his team to stop playing the national anthem before home basketball games.
In case you haven’t noticed, America is in the midst of a radical civil war, and the very ideals on which this nation was founded are being torn to the ground and set on fire. When I was a kid, my WWII Army Air Force veteran father told me that men he had gone to school with gave their lives to protect our flag, and because of that it was special and should be treated with respect. In our day, the American flag and our National Anthem are so despised by the radical Left that they’re no longer deemed fit to have a place at silly game like basketball.
UPDATE: Despite an order from Mavs Owner Mark Cuban to not play the anthem reportedly because “many feel it does not represent them,” the league has stepped-in and mandated that “all teams” will play the anthem before games.
Black Lives Matter has nothing at all to do with ‘ending racial injustice’ or stopping ‘police brutality’, it is about bringing in a radical Marxist agenda loosely based around the black supremacy movement of Liberation Theology. It is nothing less than war and on a variety of levels. In 2020, I did not watch one minute of any professional sports game, and in 2021 I blissfully ignored the Super Bowl with its idiotic commercials and demonic Half Time Show. Hit them where it hurts and stop watching all professional sports, don’t buy any merchandise and let their businesses fall into receivership. If every Christian in America would do that, the effect would be overwhelming and immediate. Game on.
Dallas Mavericks Stop Playing National Anthem Before Home Games At Command Of Mark Cuban
FROM BREITBART NEWS: The move is not temporary and the team has no anticipation of resuming the long-standing tradition. The Mavericks have now become the first major American sports team to officially end the playing of the national anthem.
The Mavericks have not played the anthem before any of their 13 preseason and regular-season games. Though, until now, Cuban had not publicly confirmed the policy change. Cuban decided to stop playing the anthem after consultation with NBA Commissioner Adam Silver, according to ESPN.
The NBA’s rulebook requires players to stand during the national anthem, but Silver has declined to enforce that rule, particularly as kneeling during the anthem became a popular way to protest social injustice in recent years. The vast majority of NBA players and many coaches kneeled during the national anthem during the NBA’s restart last summer in Orlando, Florida, when the league incorporated messaging supporting the Black Lives Matter movement and other social justice causes in the court design and other ways.
Mark Cuban has supported the desire of NBA players to kneel during the anthem as a form of protest.
“Whether it’s holding their arm up in the air, whether it’s taking a knee, whatever it is, I don’t think this is an issue of respect or disrespect to the flag or to the anthem or to our country,” Cuban told ESPN’s Outside the Lines in June. “I think this is more a reflection of our players’ commitment to this country and the fact that it’s so important to them that they’re willing to say what’s in their heart and do what they think is right.
“I’ll defer to Silver on any final judgments and [players’ union executive director] Michele Roberts. But the reality is, my hope is we’ll let the players do exactly what they think is the right thing to do.”
The anthem-kneeling movement began in the summer of 2016 when then-49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick sat, and then knelt during the playing of the anthem. Kaepernick claimed his decision to kneel was a form of protest against racial injustice and police brutality. Since that time, the practice of kneeling during the anthem has been adopted by Major League Baseball players, NBA players, MLS and World Cup soccer players, and Olympic athletes. READ MORE

Amazingly, Republicans attempted to sabotage the opening day of Hillary Clinton’s closed-door testimony about her relationship with Jeffrey Epstein
We are watching a unique stage play unfolding as Hillary and Bill Clinton are being compelled to testify about their relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Today was the first day of Hillary’s deposition, and it had barely begun when it erupted into chaos as Republicans violated the rules of the closed-door congressional testimony when Lauren Boebert snapped a photo and sent it to TPUSA flack Benny Johnson. The duplicity and corruption on both sides is stunning, but Jeffrey Epstein just may have the last laugh.
“Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? saith the LORD. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the LORD.”Jeremiah 23:24 (KJB)
Hundreds of photos are available right now online showing Epstein’s very cozy relationship with Bill Clinton, and his very cozy relationship with Donald Trump. Why, there’s even a photo of Ghislaine Maxwell attending Chelsea Clinton’s wedding. The funny part is that both the Clinton’s and Trump are fervently denying the true nature of their relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, in stark contrast to the mountains of evidence that says otherwise. There is only one fair way to solve this vexing problem. Everyone mentioned in the Epstein Files must be put under oath, questioned, and then their answers have to be throughly investigated to see who’s lying and who’s telling the truth. Me personally, I think if the truth ever does come out, there will be enough there to sink not only the Clintons and Donald Trump, but about half of the Federal Government as well. In the meantime, the president of the World Economic Forum today resigned his post as messages between him and Jeffrey Epstein came to light.
Chaos erupts as Hillary Clinton HALTS her Epstein testimony after MAGA lawmaker took photo of closed-door deposition
FROM THE DAILY MAIL UK: Chaos erupted inside Hillary Clinton’s Jeffrey Epstein deposition on Thursday after a Republican lawmaker took a photograph of her during the private session. Representative Lauren Boebert snapped a picture of Hillary and her attorneys as she addressed lawmakers about her relationship with Epstein, then purportedly leaked it to MAGA influencer Benny Johnson.
Hillary’s lawyers asked that the proceedings be halted after the photograph began circulating on social media. It is strictly prohibited for lawmakers or witnesses to take pictures inside a closed-door congressional testimony. The former secretary of state is being deposed at the Chappaqua Performing Arts Center near the Clintons’ home in Westchester County, New York, while Bill Clinton will testify on Friday. The closed-door session is being filmed, though any footage will be reviewed by Hillary’s lawyers before release. The deposition resumed within an hour.
Hillary later asked James Comer, the top Republican overseeing the deposition, if the press could be allowed in the hearing after Boebert’s shocking leak. Comer reportedly replied, ‘No.’
A Clinton spokesman told the Daily Mail: ‘It’s against chamber rules that were read at the top of the meeting. So the hearing has been paused briefly while they figure out where the photo came from and why, possibly, members of Congress are violating House rules.’
Prior to the chaos, Hillary blasted Republicans for targeting her while failing to investigate Donald Trump in a fiery opening statement where she provided no defense for her husband. The former secretary of state said she has ‘no information on Epstein’s criminal activities and never recalls meetings’, then accused lawmakers of covering up for Trump’s relationship with Epstein, where he faces ‘heinous’ accusations from survivors.

The Pruntytown Correctional Center and Jail In West Virginia And The Murray County Jail Up In North Georgia Are The Latest To Request King James Bibles
The Pruntytown Correctional Center and Jail In West Virginia is the latest detention center to request King James Bibles for their inmates
So far in 2026, thousands of King James Bibles, scripture portions and books have been flying out the door, with new requests coming in on a daily basis. The Pruntytown Correctional Center and Jail holds just under 400 inmates, and Chaplain Elder has requested a Bible for each inmate. Up in north Georgia at the Murray County Jail, Chaplain Rick has run out of the thousands of Bibles we’ve sent him last year, and is requesting more. What a blessing to see the gospel being preached, souls being saved and the word of God going out!
“Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.”Luke 8:11 (KJB)
From all the testimonies we’ve been getting, right around 1,000 souls have heard the gospel, believed it, and were given a Bible from Bibles Behind Bars. I am sure the actual numbers are much higher than that, but those are the ones we’ve directly heard about. When you donate to this outreach, you are first and foremost keeping the supply lines open for all the pastors, chaplains and volunteers who go to the jails and prisons to preach. Bibles Behind Bars is one of the very last jail and prison supply ministries who send out the King James Bibles and books exclusively. Because of you, we are operating on a nationwide scale servicing hundreds of detention facilities. Come work where God is working, and help us to meet this crucial end times need. We need you!
If God has prospered you, please take a moment to click on the donate button to help us in this monumental task of providing King James Bibles, New Testaments, scripture portions, gospel tracts as well as Spanish Bibles to inmates in jails and prisons from Florida to Alaska, and every state in between. We need your prayers, we need your generous financial support, and we need you to stand with us in the closing days of the Church Age. Thank you so very much, TO THE FIGHT!!!
