Fans of actor and producer Mel Gibson can finally start getting excited to feast their eyes on an epic sequel to one of his most iconic films.

In fact, fans will actually get two sequels within a matter of months, according to a new announcement by Lionsgate Films, which teased the release of a new film in May. At that point, fans neither had a release date nor an indication that Gibson had an ace up his sleeve regarding the planned release.

‘The ancient stone towns and landscapes evoke the biblical world while also echoing the early church’s rise from suffering to glory.’

Now we know that Gibson’s “The Passion of the Christ” is officially getting the trilogy treatment, Newsmax reported. The sequels will hit theaters approximately six weeks apart in the first half of 2027.

Lionsgate released a teaser revealing the films “The Resurrection of the Christ” parts one and two, with a planned release date on Good Friday, March 26, 2027, for part one and May 6, 2027, for part two. The latter marks Ascension Day, which celebrates Jesus Christ’s ascension into heaven.

The two films will likely explore Christ’s descent into the underworld to redeem souls, also known as the Harrowing of Hell, according to Newsmax. Inside sources also told the outlet about the estimated budgets for the films, which could be more than three times that of the original film.

“The Passion of The Christ” took in more than $80 million on its opening weekend against a $30 million budget in 2004, with Box Office Mojo stats showing the film took in a whopping $600 million worldwide.

Insiders told Newsmax the budget for the two new films could exceed $100 million. Filming is set to begin in Rome; other planned filming locations reportedly include the southern Italian towns of Altamura, Ginosa, Gravina, Laterza, and Matera.

The rich history of the region is integral to the story Gibson is trying to tell, Blaze Media faith editor Chris Enloe explained.

“These specific filming locations give Gibson’s movies a physical and spiritual authenticity that few places on earth can offer,” he said. “The ancient stone towns and landscapes evoke the biblical world while also echoing the early church’s rise from suffering to glory. Gibson isn’t just telling a story. He’s inviting viewers into a space where history, faith, and cinematic vision converge.”

Gibson was named by President-elect Donald Trump as a special ambassador to Hollywood in January shortly after Gibson’s 69th birthday.

Trump said he hoped Gibson, along with fellow appointees Sylvester Stallone and Jon Voight, would help make the “very troubled” Hollywood great again.

“These three very talented people will be my eyes and ears, and I will get done what they suggest,” Trump said at the time, per Variety.

Trump promised the ambassadors would help return Hollywood to its “golden age.”

The Department of Homeland Security has given its side of the story after several House Democrats said they were denied access to a detention facility in New York, even claiming they were “trapped” by a masked officer.

Rep. Adriano Espaillat (D-N.Y.) posted video of their attempted visit showing media members outside of the fenced area to the facility. The site is run by the Federal Bureau of Prisons. The Democrats said they were there to provide “oversight” to the holding facility.

DHS also pointed to … the massive increase in assaults on federal agents — ‘including by [a] Member of Congress themselves’ — as reasons why tours must be scheduled in advance.

“This blatant lack of respect towards the Legislative Branch is a deterioration of checks and balances, all while they hide their atrocities from the public. The people demand answers, and immigrants deserve humanity,” Espaillat said.

New York Democratic Reps. Dan Goldman and Nydia Velazquez were present for the incident as well.

DHS called the visit “deeply unserious,” claiming the representatives “were not trapped and were free to leave whenever they would like, in fact the BOP, which manages this facility, had to close the gates to prevent the media from trespassing.”

“Here are the facts: These members did not follow proper protocol and schedule their visit. Instead, they brought a gaggle of media to drive clicks and fundraising emails,” DHS continued.

DHS also pointed to the president’s authority over executive agencies as well as the massive increase in assaults on federal agents — “including by [a] Member of Congress themselves” — as reasons why tours must be scheduled in advance, alluding to the alleged assault on agents by Democrat Rep. LaMonica McIver (N.J.) at Delaney Hall in Newark.

DHS now says the number of assaults on its agents has reached over 1,000% when compared to the same time last year. Only a month ago, the number sat at 830%.

​Politics 

At a recent Panamerican Congress in Mexico City, Rep. Delia Ramirez of Illinois stood before attendees and declared in Spanish, “I’m a proud Guatemalan before I’m an American.” Ramirez, who sits on the House Homeland Security Committee, helps shape policies vital to the nation’s safety. Yet she openly and proudly identifies with another country, and in a foreign language, no less.

Ramirez isn’t alone. She’s part of a growing class of politicians who treat their American citizenship as a formality. Many are first-generation immigrants. Ramirez isn’t even that. She was born to an illegal immigrant mother who crossed the border while pregnant and secured birthright citizenship for her daughter. On paper, Ramirez is American. In every other way, she is not.

What does it mean to be American?

The immigration debate has forced Americans to confront the deeper question of national identity. Nearly everyone agrees the southern border should be closed to illegal aliens. But views on legal immigration vary widely, and those differences often rest on whether people believe the United States is a “propositional nation.”

The idea that a sitting congresswoman can say she belongs to Guatemala before she belongs to America — and face no consequences — is insane.

That idea holds that America is defined not by a shared heritage or culture, but by a set of abstract principles. According to this view, anyone who completes the paperwork and swears an oath is just as American as someone whose ancestors fought in the Revolutionary War.

The problem is, no one is ever denaturalized and deported for rejecting the proposition. New citizens can — and often do — criticize or outright deny basic American values. They can declare loyalty to foreign governments while holding office in the United States. And because citizenship confers First Amendment protections, they face no consequences for doing so.

This turns the entire idea of a “propositional nation” into a joke.

Paperwork without allegiance

Ramirez herself is not an immigrant. She was born under current understanding of the 14th Amendment. Her mother, in violation of U.S. law, crossed the border while pregnant. No agreement to any American proposition was required. Ramirez acquired the legal status of an American and the constitutional right to reject the nation that gave it to her.

There is no ideological connection, cultural tie, or apparent love of country. Only the paperwork remains.

Immigration skeptics have long warned that newcomers often bring with them foreign loyalties. Critics dismissed such concerns as racist, even when examples piled up. Today, those examples speak for themselves.

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) has described Somalia as her “real homeland” and addressed Somali crowds in their native language, pledging to fight for their interests. Omar Fateh, likely the next mayor of Minneapolis, speaks the same way. These are not the words of people assimilating. These are declarations of divided loyalty.

During the Los Angeles anti-ICE riots in June, protesters waved Mexican flags, burned cars, and attacked police. Many were illegal immigrants. But many others were citizens, some born in the United States, who openly called for the “reconquest” of California in the name of Mexico.

President Claudia Sheinbaum of Mexico even claimed the rioters as her own, describing them as fellow Mexicans and calling on them to pressure the U.S. government to change laws that affected Mexico’s economy.

The president of Mexico sees through the paperwork. She knows who her people are. Americans, for some reason, continue to pretend the paperwork alone tells the whole story.

We need to talk about allegiance

The debate over American identity will continue for a long time to come. But the modern definition clearly isn’t working, and something new will require some tough conversations. If we can’t candidly discuss who belongs in the nation and why, we’ll never resolve the issue.

In the meantime, we should at least agree on one thing: No one who openly declares loyalty to another country should hold public office in the United States.

The idea that a sitting congresswoman can say she belongs to Guatemala before she belongs to America — and face no consequences — is insane. A nation that tolerates this cannot endure. A nation that refuses to expel such people, not just from office but from its borders, is already dying.

We treat this behavior as acceptable. In reality, it is a form of treason.

Paperwork alone does not make someone American. The people exploiting our system understand this. They aren’t confused. They’re mocking us. And unless we find the courage to act, they will keep doing it.

Send them back. Every last one.

Turning Point USA founder and podcaster Charlie Kirk, Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem, and Vice President JD Vance found themselves in the crosshairs of a ruthless “South Park” episode Wednesday night.

The episode, titled “Got a Nut,” again focused on America’s right-wing cultural sphere after the season premiere featured President Trump in bed with Satan and the school’s politically correct principal turning to Jesus.

This time, the main storyline hilariously parodies Kirk, while Noem was brutally mocked by creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker.

‘I understand it feels good, but it doesn’t mean you do it all the time.’

The episode starts with all the school children taking issue with fourth-grader Clyde after he starts a podcast to criticize women, blacks, and Jews. As students yell at him in the hallways, Clyde simply tells them, “Prove me wrong,” and to appear on his podcast to debate him.

Resident evil-child Cartman is not pleased to find out that Clyde has stolen his bit and appears on Clyde’s podcast to confront him but is cut off by ads for supplements from Clyde’s new sponsors. So Cartman meets Clyde at one of his events — a Kirk-style campus debate setup — to replace him and prove he is “the master debater.”

Cartman then becomes addicted to debating and starts conducting debates from home, even when he is on the toilet or in bed. Realizing he may have a problem, Cartman’s mother intrudes on his “master debating” when she finds he’s up all night debating.

“I have my arguments down rock solid. These young college girls are totally unprepared so I can just destroy them and actually edit out the ones that argue back well,” Cartman tells his mother about debating. “It just feels so good.”

His mother replies, “I understand it feels good, but it doesn’t mean you do it all the time.”

While Kirk is harmlessly put through the ringer as using Bible references and abortion arguments to “totally” destroy “another woke student,” Secretary Noem did not fair nearly as well with the animators.

After guidance counselor Mr. Mackey gets fired because the government is cutting back on “needless spending” in schools, he realizes he has $8,000 per month in expenses he needs to pay for. His solution, as suggested by his banker for some reason, is to join Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Mackey arrives at an ICE recruitment center, where he is asked one question before being hired and sent to a room and shown an introductory video. The video has Noem welcoming recruits and pulling up to random street animals and shooting them, a recurring theme that even continues with her shooting up a pet store in the credits.

Mackey and ICE agents are sent to raids at a “Dora the Explorer” concert and even in heaven, and Mackey’s exemplary work gets him an invite to Mar-A-Lago.

There, President Trump, who is parodied in the same way the show used to parody Saddam Hussein, promises Mackey he will replace Noem because “her face freaks me out.”

Noem’s face is consistently melting off in the episode, and a team of makeup artists are always molding it back together like Humpty Dumpty.

Audiences are introduced to Vice President Vance as a mini-sidekick of Trump, which Vance took on the chin and shared on social media.

“Well, I’ve finally made it,” the vice president wrote on X, sharing an image of himself from the show.

Kirk, too, took the parody in stride, sharing a clip from the episode and claiming it was a word-for-word recreation of one of his campus debates.

Aside from Noem’s constant portrayal of shooting animals, a reference to her putting a dog down on her farm, the episode was relatively tame compared to the season premiere.

The White House responded to that episode by calling the show unoriginal and inauthentic, with assistant press secretary Taylor Rogers comparing the show’s creators to talentless left-wing pundits.

“This show hasn’t been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention,” Rogers told Rolling Stone.

Parker and Stone responded to criticisms at San Diego Comic Con just a day later and simply said, “We’re terribly sorry.”

Democrat Rep. Delia Ramirez (Ill.) — whose job it is to serve the American people — made headlines this week after announcing her loyalty to Guatemala over America.

“I’m a proud Guatemalan before I’m an American,” she said at a summit in Mexico City over the weekend.

“Just so we’re clear, she is the daughter of Guatemalan immigrants and an American citizen by birthright citizenship, and I’m just wondering why she’s here,” BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales comments.

“Would you ever in your life say, ‘I’m a South African before I’m an American and then just come back and live here?’” she asks legal immigrant and BlazeTV contributor Jaco Booyens.

“No, I’d have to be a liar because I had to swear an allegiance to this country and denounce my allegiance to the other country, which she didn’t have to do because she was born here. She’s just a brat. Spoiled brat. And she should pack her bags and get on a jet plane and don’t come back again,” Booyens says.

“Somebody didn’t tell her that it’s 2025, and what you say there actually we’ll see over here, because she’s placating to a crowd. But then the left does that all the time. Where they go, they say whatever they need to say to appease those people,” he says, adding, “But I think she’s being truthful, Sarah.”

“I agree with you, especially because she is not the only Democrat congressperson or Democrat official at all to do that specifically,” Gonzales agrees, noting that Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) has made an eerily similar statement.

“Sleep in comfort knowing that I am here to protect the interests of Somalia from inside the U.S. system,” Omar said to a crowd of Somalis.

“These are sleeper agents,” Booyens says, unphased.

“Literally,” Gonzales agrees, “how can you come to any other conclusion?”

A TikTok of a Christian woman named Camille Wight has gone viral, as she claimed she wanted to divorce her “perfect” husband — which sparked an intense debate about marriage and divorce across all social media platforms.

“Earlier this year, I told my husband I wanted a divorce. I feel like I have been searching for something in my relationship that we don’t have for the whole time we’ve been married, which has been 10 years,” the woman said.

“There is not a single thing about my husband in and of himself that I do not love. Let me be very clear about that. He is the most self-disciplined, loyal, hardworking, good person that you could meet on this planet. And that is probably the reason why I have not left,” she continued.

The woman went on to explain that her expectations are not being met and that she doesn’t feel like she can be herself with her husband — emphasizing that she is a mom of three who still doesn’t know who she is.

She couched the confession by asking for advice and wanting to know how she can salvage her marriage.

“It won’t come as a surprise to you that I have a lot of problems with this, that God has a lot of problems with this person’s reasoning and what she is articulating here,” BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey says.

“Posting a video confessing your soured feelings about your husband — talking negatively about your spouse, talking negatively about your marriage — indicates a lot of very profound spiritual and mental issues going on here. You’ve got to honor your husband more than this. You’ve got to cherish your marriage more than this. You’ve got to protect your privacy better than this, love your kids more than this,” she continues.

Because Wight publicly claims the name of Christ, Stuckey speaks to her in Christian terms.

“Number one, marriage is for life. Except in rare circumstances, divorce is not allowed. Jesus says, ‘What God has joined together, let not man separate.’ Number two, life isn’t about finding yourself. It’s about denying yourself, as Jesus calls us to do. The journey to self-discovery is endless, and self-fulfillment is a very heavy burden to bear,” Stuckey says.

“Number three, your kids’ well-being matters more than your wants. Your feelings will change. Your kids’ emotional, psychological, and spiritual need for an intact home will not. And number four, marriage is not primarily about happiness. It is primarily about holiness,” she continues.

“And then finally, number five, feelings are real,” she says. “They are strong. And it is so tempting to follow our feelings, but it is a trap. Our hearts cannot be trusted. Jeremiah 17:9. So go to people at your church, in your life, that won’t just affirm how you feel, but will actually point you, as uncomfortable as it may be, to the unchanging truth of God’s word.”

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and CIA Director John Ratcliffe provided damning insights last month into the apparent role that the liberal media played in perpetuating the Russian collusion hoax on the American people.

The revelations do not appear to have chastened the outlets that vigorously pushed the false narrative for years.

For example, when confronted with the newly declassified Durham annex — which detailed credible intelligence indicating that the Clinton campaign manufactured the Russian collusion hoax, seeded its talking points to the media, and ultimately furnished the FBI with a pretext to hound her opponent — the New York Times spun the declassified report as a distraction from the Epstein files; misled readers about its key findings; and downplayed its significance.

The article has neither aged well nor stood up to scrutiny.

Whereas the Times recently tried to gaslight about an old hoax, CNN — which has not covered the Durham annex — set to work this week on a new story that turned out to be a hoax.

On Tuesday, CNN published a piece titled “Top Trump officials will discuss Epstein strategy in Wednesday meeting at Vice President JD Vance’s residence.” The article has neither aged well nor stood up to scrutiny.

CNN claimed in the initial version that Vance, White House chief of staff Susie Wiles, Attorney General Pam Bondi, FBI Director Kash Patel, and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche were expected to meet at the vice president’s residence to discuss “the administration’s handling of the Epstein case, as well as the need to craft a unified response.”

Citing two anonymous sources, the liberal publication further claimed that “the White House considers those officials the leaders of the Trump administration’s ongoing strategy regarding the Epstein files.”

CNN has since edited its article to note that Vance is not actually among those whom the White House supposedly considers leaders of the admin’s ongoing Epstein strategy.

‘Any reporting to the contrary is false.’

“The CNN story is pure fiction,” William Martin, communications director to the vice president, said in a statement obtained by Blaze News. “There was never a supposed meeting scheduled at the vice president’s residence to discuss Epstein strategy.”

When pressed for comment, the White House referred Blaze News to Martin’s statement.

Alayna Treene, the CNN White House reporter on the apparently fake story, began to backpedal on Wednesday, noting first that “administration officials familiar with the meeting said the dinner was now in flux, given its intense coverage, & it was unclear whether it would ultimately be called off, moved to another location or rescheduled.”

An hour later, Treene shared the following comment from Martin: “As we’ve said publicly, there was never a supposed meeting scheduled at the vice president’s residence to discuss Epstein strategy. Any reporting to the contrary is false.”

The story continued to unravel, now at an accelerated pace.

Citing her anonymous sources once again, Treene indicated on X that the dinner might not be happening, but if it were, it might be happening elsewhere and would not actually be an Epstein strategy session.

“Despite talks of canceling the dinner, two officials said it could still take place, though the location may change,” wrote Treene. “They argued the focus of the meeting would likely be broader than solely discussing the administration’s handling of the Epstein case.”

‘I saw that reported today, and it’s completely fake news.’

CNN then rushed out a follow-up piece incorporating Treene’s narrative revisions — an article the liberal network also ended up having to alter.

The follow-up article, first titled “Vance dinner seen as potential way to clear the air between Bondi and Patel on Epstein scandal” and now appearing on the CNN website as “Planned dinner for Trump officials to discuss Epstein appears to have been moved amid media scrutiny,” states as a fact that the dinner was planned for Wednesday night at Vance’s residence and “was seen as an opportunity for Trump administration officials to realign amid the ongoing Jeffrey Epstein scandal.”

Whereas previously CNN sold the supposed dinner as an Epstein strategy session, now the publication suggested it was an opportunity for Vance “to reprise his peacemaker role” and smooth things over between Bondi, Bongino, and Patel, who apparently had a falling out following the Justice Department’s conclusion that child sex-trafficker Jeffrey Epstein did not have a client list that could implicate deep-pocketed elites.

“It’s a way to get everyone together in an informal, low-stakes situation,” an unnamed source told CNN.

Fielding a question about the supposed gathering posed to President Donald Trump on Wednesday, Vance said, “I saw that reported today, and it’s completely fake news. We’re not meeting to talk about the Epstein situation, and I think the reporter who reported it needs to get better sources.”

A Scottish bagpiper has received a bounty of backlash after going viral with videos promoting Western culture in foreign countries.

At just 20 years old, Robin Alderslowe decided to travel around the world and spread Scottish music with a desire to keep his culture alive, a culture he says faces constant pressure to water down its customs and history.

‘The most core thing about fixing immigration is fixing our own attitudes toward our own self.’

The Scot visited countries like South Korea and Australia, but it was only when he began sharing content from India that he started garnering a following and, with it, a mountain of resistance.

Not only did Alderslowe start receiving social media bans, but he noticed that a lot of discontent he was generating was coming from, surprisingly, his own people.

Receptive audience

In an exclusive interview with Blaze News, the bagpiper said that while people are often “shocked” and unable to make sense of his presence in countries like India, it is not the native population that takes issue with his content.

“Normally, people think the confused faces of Indian people means they’re angry, but they’re quite pleased to have me there,” Alderslowe explained.

Instead, other Scots have labeled him a racist. Alderslowe shared a story from all the way in Australia, where he met a Scottish woman who recognized him from his viral videos. The young woman chastised him and called him an “a**hole” and a “Nazi.”

Bagpipers divided

Moreover, bagpipe players in his own country have excommunicated him from where he used to play. The thriving busking community on the Royal Mile in Edinburgh, Scotland, is rich in history and was born out of ex-military members playing for pay. But since his videos have pulled big numbers, bagpipers have disowned Alderslowe due to tourists constantly “asking about that ‘racist’ bagpiper.”

“I can’t play there anymore,’ Alderslowe said of his home country.

When asked if he is just trying to find his place in the world and spread his music without a message, Alderslowe confirmed, it is about culture, and it is about immigration.

RELATED: The Trump effect: Americans — not foreigners — continue to gain jobs

“The most important thing surrounding what it means for an immigrant to come to our country, and whether that’s good or bad, is our culture and how they’re integrating into our culture,” Alderslowe explained.

Scot free

To the young man, what’s really important, “and really upsetting,” is how Westerners are taught that being proud and happy about their own culture is wrong.

“We’re saying things like, ‘White people don’t have any culture,’ and to me, the most core thing about fixing immigration is fixing our own attitudes toward our own self, our heritage, our history, and our culture.”

He added, “Us as Europeans … can we be proud of our past, and how can we say that?”

If you ask him, much of the backlash Alderslowe is receiving is because he is not acting stereotypically “British.”

After years of being told to lessen his Scottish accent and avoid the typical image of a “shortbread tin” Scot, Alderslowe explained that being “loud” is the only way timid Scottish folk are going to be able to keep their proud culture.

“If you ask somebody in Scotland if they’re proud of their culture, they’ll say, ‘Of course I am.’ It’s about the way that I’m saying it. It’s that I’m being aggressive, and I’m being loud, and I’m being proud of it in another country,” the bagpiper described. “That’s why they’re claiming it’s ‘white supremacist’ or ‘Nazi’ and associating it with extremism because British people aren’t like that, we’re not [loud] like that.”

Goa for it

Calling the kilt-wearer racist for his content would be pretty far off given his track record. In February, one of Alderslowe’s social media posts made the rounds in Indian media after he and a few friends were allowed to skip the line at a popular club in Goa and get in for free.

Locals were outraged that they had to wait outside while foreigners got in immediately in order to attract a broader customer base.

These local sentiments have not been enough to keep Alderslowe out of the crosshairs of social media outlets, though.

Kilt-y by association

Much of Alderslowe’s communication on social sites has been stymied due to constant suspensions, restrictions, and limitation of functions from the platforms. On Instagram, he has had his ability to post and send private messages restricted for weeks, including when arranging an interview.

“I’m permanently banned from TikTok and cannot appeal,” Alderslowe also revealed.

Between “making no revenue” and booking flights to Africa, the young adult said he is looking for ways to spread his cultural message to the public. He expressed a desire to collaborate with others to help showcase their own cultures in their own countries, too.

“If we want to keep our culture the way that it is … then we have to be proud of [that] culture and say it in a loud way.”
