Guilty!—But Not Really Guilty? by Victor Davis Hanson

By Victor Davis Hanson, American Greatness – Our criminal justice system no longer treats the accused equally under the law. If the defendant is deemed a conservative, like a Michael Flynn, Peter Navarro, or Donald Trump, then the full force of prosecution falls upon them… But if a Biden, Brennan, Clapper, Clinton, Holder, or Willis, then the state contorts itself to find excuses, exemptions, and mitigating circumstances not to pursue justice… In these high-profile cases in this polarized era, a cynical public now expects any accused prominent leftist to remain unindicted ….

Judge Lets Fani Willis Continue Trump Case Despite ‘Cloud Of Impropriety And Potential Untruthfulness’, by Brianna Lyman

By Brianna Lyman, The Federalist – Fulton County Judge Scott McAfee found District Attorney Fani Willis potentially lied, cast “racial aspersions” on a defendant, and had a “tremendous lapse in judgement,” but could nonetheless continue her crusade targeting a former president — so long as special prosecutor Nathan Wade withdraws from the case… McAfee issued a decision Friday saying the defendants “failed to meet their burden of proving that the District Attorney acquired an actual conflict of interest in this case.”

Political Grandstanding on IVF Ignores Its Abuse of Human Dignity, by Michael Warsaw

By Michael Warsaw, Publisher’s Note, EWTN News – But there is a bigger issue at stake than winning elections or steering clear of the cancel culture: the truth… That truth begins with basic science. Whether the embryo is created through natural procreation or when sperm and egg are joined in a petri dish, it is a human being in the earliest of stages. This isn’t a religious doctrine or a conservative court’s opinion. It’s a biological fact, one that wouldn’t change even if 100% of Americans said otherwise.

By Craig Bannister, CNS News – “Texas has transported over 105,000 migrants to sanctuary cities,” Republican Governor Greg Abbott announced Tuesday, promising that “Until [President] Biden does his job to secure the border, Texas will continue to hold the line.”… The illegal aliens, or “newcomers,” as Biden now calls them, were transported under Gov.

Free Speech Depends On SCOTUS Rejecting The Government’s Censorship Excuses In Murthy v. Missouri, by Scott Street

By Scott Street, The Federalist – On July 4, 2023, Louisiana-based federal Judge Terry Doughty issued a historic decision in the censorship case then called Missouri v. Biden (the case was filed by two state attorneys general, including Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt, who now sits in the U.S. Senate). The decisions made news not just for the result and the date it was issued, but for the importance Doughty showed to the underlying issue… In fact, Doughty’s opinion echoed the lofty rhetoric of the great federal court decisions issued during the civil rights era. But the political dynamic had flipped.

Say the Word, Mr. President, and Tell the Truth About Abortion, by Susan Ciancio

By Susan Ciancio, Catholic World Report – Euphemisms are often used in polite society to make distasteful words more palatable. But sometimes they are spoken to hide the truth. Nowhere was this more evident than in President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address on March 7th, when he refused to say the word “abortion” and instead repeatedly referred to it as “reproductive freedom”… Biden, who claims to be “a practicing Catholic” who is “not big on abortion”, spent just a handful of minutes discussing abortion. Yet his words were carefully crafted to not only incite anger but to make it seem like those who oppose abortion have waged a war against women.

Illegal Immigration Myopia, by Jack Devine

By Jack Devine, Patriot Post – What do President Joe Biden and his Democrat supporters really think about our three years of wide-open southern border? Perhaps they’re still happy with it — or maybe as the election season heats up, they think it might have been a political misstep… Either way, they’re not even close. Enabling the tsunami of illegal immigration into the U.S. has been a colossal failure in public policy that will haunt our nation for decades — and we’ve yet to internalize its implications.

Joe Biden Isn’t “Pro-Choice,” He’s a Cheerleader for Abortions Up to Birth, by Ryan Bomberger

By Ryan Bomberger, LifeNews – These were the exact words President Biden spoke in an interview about the supremely wrong Roe decision that commercialized the killing of America’s Posterity. “I don’t like the Supreme Court decision on abortion,” Senator Biden explained. “I think it went too far. I don’t think that a woman has the sole right to say what should happen to her body.” That was 1974. Fast forward fifty years, and Joe Biden cannot celebrate and promote abortion enough.

Gearing Up for ‘Biden’ Versus Trump: Not If, But When and How to Replace Biden, by Victor Davis Hanson

By Victor Davis Hanson, American Greatness – President Joe Biden is declining at a geometric, not an arithmetic, rate. His cognitive challenges are multifaceted… His gait is shaky. His daily use of stairs now risks the chance of a tenure-ending fall. Even when he sticks to the teleprompter, he so slurs his speech, mispronounces words, and glides his syntax that at times he becomes as incomprehensible at the podium as he is unsteady in his step.

Christians, You Have Been Warned. The States are Coming for Your Children, by Chuck Mason

Has Google Created an AI Frankenstein? by Michael Brown

By Michael Brown, The Stream – Last week, I posted an article titled “The Programming of AI and the Indoctrination of Our Children,” highlighting the ridiculously obvious, radical leftist biases in both the Google search engine and Google’s new AI bot named Gemini. Since then, we have learned just how extremist Google’s Gemini really is, not to mention how long Google apparently says it will take to fix things. This leads to the question: has Google created an AI Frankenstein?

Is There Still a “Catholic Vote?”, by George J. Marlin

By George J. Marlin, Crisis Magazine – Are there Catholic voting blocs today? Yes and no… Let me explain… For most of the 20th century, there were monolithic blocs of urban Catholic voters who determined the outcomes of many Federal, State and local elections. These Catholics, whom Cardinal Timothy Dolan fondly calls “meat and potato” faithful, went to Mass on Sunday, obeyed the teachings of the Church, sent their children to Catholic schools, and joined Catholic fraternal societies. The parish was often the center of their lives.

Suppression of Free Speech Case! Mamet’s Map and Netchoice V. Paxton, by Philip Hamburger

By Philip Hamburger, First Things – Now, however, government just asks social media platforms to suppress speech, and because they are chokepoints for much public communication, they offer the government the opportunity for highly effective wholesale suppression. The government can thereby suppress speech without going to court—so the suppressed individuals must go to court to escape the censorship, thus leaving them the burdens of proof and persuasion. Never before has suppression been so easy or resisting it so difficult.

Ask for an image of the pope, and you might just get the world’s first female pontiff of color.

By  John Zmirak, The Stream – Eric Metaxas: The point of my book and the point of this film is to give Christians a last chance to understand that THIS IS IT.

I feel so strongly about this that we are making screenings of the film FREE to any church that wants to show it. Not kidding. No strings attached.

The American Stasi Controls What You Hear And See To Control What You Think And Do, by Sean Davis

By Sean Davis, CEO and co-founder, The Federalist – Russiagate? 100% American Stasi op from beginning to end. Ukraine impeachment? American Stasi op to defend its money-laundering playground in Ukraine, protect Biden, and hurt Trump. It was a psyop trifecta. The Kavanaugh rape hoax? Obvious American Stasi op. Covid? Oh, you better believe it. They brought out all the big guns on that one: it gave them the opportunity to take out Trump and deploy a biomedical surveillance state.

Alabama Supreme Court Justice Tom Parker: “All Human Beings Bear God’s Image From the Moment of Conception”, by Steven Ertelt

By Steven Ertelt, LifeNews – Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice Tom Parker issued the following concurring opinion in a case last week that ruled 8-1 that unborn children are human beings and the state’s wrongful death law can include them when it comes to destroying human embryos at an IVF fertility clinic… A good judge follows the Constitution instead of policy, except when the Constitution itself commands the judge to follow a certain policy.

Good News: Fertilized Embryos Are Human Lives, Says Alabama, by Emmy Griffin

By Emmy Griffin, Patriot Post – This humble publication tends to lean more toward the perspective that IVF, for all its promises to help families that are struggling with infertility, is a practice that has more cons than pros. This is particularly true when one considers that fertility doctors often extract and fertilize a plethora of eggs, but couples only use the “most viable” ones, leaving the rest either on ice or to be destroyed. If one believes that life begins at conception/fertilization, then the destruction of these lives is murder.

Against the Woke Heresy, by David Warren

By David Warren, The Catholic Thing – The truth will win, often more quickly than we expected. This is an optimistic view, often maintained by the Catholic Church, such as in those moments when she is put to the test… Hope itself is not an argument for complacency, but rather, an argument against despair. The Christian virtue of Hope – like all the other graceful mysteries – presents difficulties to the narrowly rationalist mind, and to its logical conscience, steeped in naturalism.

Is Trump A Christian Nationalist Savior Or Faithless Imposter? The Press Can’t Decide, by Tristan Justice

By Tristan Justice, The Federalist – None of the media’s “Christian jihad” hand-wringing came to pass in 2016, and none of it will materialize if Trump wins again in 2024. It’s all hyperbole, and if the lying media claim both of two extremes — that Trump is a disgusting anti-Christian and that he’s a Trojan horse for Christian nationalism — the truth is somewhere in the middle. Trump is a defender of Christians, if not a Christian himself, which is exactly where conservative Trump voters have staked their electoral claim for the past eight years.

Putin’s Revenge: Re-Electing the Democrats So the U.S. Collapses Like the USSR, Part I, by Jason Jones & John Zmirak

By Jason Jones & John Zmirak, The Stream – As we observed here last week, the Russian national sport isn’t football. It’s chess. That’s a game where the guy who can think not just two moves but ten moves ahead wins every time. And watching Tucker Carlson interview Vladimir Putin, then traipse around Russian supermarkets and subway stations goofily raving about their cleanliness, brought that truth painfully home… Tucker Carlson is the most important journalist in America. He’s smart, courageous, principled, and he got played by Putin. Carlson didn’t grow up playing chess, as Putin doubtless did — literally and figuratively, when he trained for the KGB.

The Friendship of Pope John Paul II and President Reagan — Plus More Commanders-in-Chief’s Catholic Connections

By Jay Copp, EWTN News – All these stories of presidents and Catholicism pale in comparison to Reagan’s relationship with Pope John Paul II. There was mutual admiration and respect between the two, and Reagan was eager to meet the Pope after watching footage of his celebratory first visit to his Polish homeland in 1979… (Reagan) and the Pope shared similar goals of ending the rule of the Soviets in Eastern Europe, and the two formed a cooperative geopolitical relationship that helped bring about the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Here We Go Again: Democrat Bill Seeks to Combat Online ‘Misinformation’, by Marya Dunning

By Marya Dunning MRC TV – If passed, Colorado’s Senate Bill 084 would appropriate $150,000 to create a study combating “misinformation” and “disinformation” online… Because the idea of a government-run “Ministry of Truth” just won’t go away… According to Reclaimthenet.org: Sen. Lisa Cutter of Evergreen, spearheading the bill, highlighted the urgent need to investigate “deliberate disinformation” operations allegedly conducted by foreign actors within the US.

Washington And Lincoln Wouldn’t Recognize America Today, by Scott Powell

By Scott Powell, The Federalist – Radical Islamists, communists, and others hostile to constitutional law who reject this foundational view of our civilization have infiltrated our government at all levels, and are using their power against the American people and to subvert our nation’s general belief that history — good, bad, and ugly — should be preserved, passed onto future generations, and used as a learning tool.

Delusions, Alternate Realities, and the Biden Consortium, by Victor Davis Hanson

By Victor Davis Hanson, American Greatness – What explains all these alternate realities? In a word, we are witnessing the meltdown of an entire American presidency. It was born in a 2020 Faustian bargain in which a cognitively challenged, ethically compromised candidate agreed to run by offering a pseudo-moderate veneer in exchange for the support of the far left, which in turn owned his agenda… Since then, the Biden apparat has tried to square the circle of packaging and promoting a far-left menu that the American people did not want, delivered to them by someone who, by any fair standard, would not be able to serve as a teacher, Uber driver, or lawyer. …

A FIRST! St. Patrick’s Cathedral Holds Funeral Service for Trans ‘Mother of all the Whores’, by Tierin-Rose Mandelburg

By Tierin-Rose Mandelburg, MRC TV – Gentili, a man who believed himself a woman, came to the United States in 2004 as an illegal immigrant. As Time Magazine wrote, “she turned to sex work and developed a drug addiction before being granted asylum eight years later.” Gentili then advocated for sex workers like himself to get healthcare, because being a prostitute merits free gifts like health coverage…apparently.

An Open Border Is an Open Invitation to Terror, by Tony Perkins

By Tony Perkins, Patriot Post – Nineteen people. That’s all it took to completely upend the world. Even now, 23 years after 9/11, America looks dramatically different from that sunny morning when a handful of radical Islamists slammed their planes into the beating heart of our nation’s freedom, its commerce, security, and way of life. We vowed then, never again. But the lessons of the past have been forgotten under this administration, as millions stream across our open border …..

The CIA Started the Russia Collusion Hoax, by Douglas Andrew

By Douglas Andrew, Patriot Post – When Barack Obama talked about “fundamentally transforming the United States of America,” he wasn’t kidding. Before he came to town, we used to have an intelligence community that focused on foreign threats. But what we have now is a deep state that will rig a presidential election and, failing that, use lawfare and disinformation to hobble the opposition party’s president for his entire term in office… Thanks, Obama.

Watered-Down Gospel Messages Like ‘He Gets Us’ Ultimately Lead To Empty Pews, by Tyler Cochran

By Tyler Cochran, The Federalist – This year, “He Gets Us” spent an estimated $17.5 million on a pair of Super Bowl ads as part of their billion-dollar ad campaign. One commercial showed a series of images of people in various circumstances in answer to the question, “who is my neighbor,” alluding to Jesus’s command to “love thy neighbor” in Matthew 22:39. The second commercial depicts Christians washing the feet of various individuals who many might consider to be the Christians’ ideological opponents.

Biden: ‘What Makes Me Most Angry Is that Ice Cream Cartons Have Actually Shrunk in Size’, by Craig Bannister

By Craig Bannister, MRC TV – On Sunday, Pres.

Corporate America Starting to Shy Away From Woke Business as Backlash Mounts, by Will Kessler

By Will Kessler, Daily Caller News Foundation – American companies are reversing the multiyear trend of hiring more employees in roles related to environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) issues in an effort to increase profitability and address investor pushback… “2023 saw a real cooling in chatter around ESG and in some quarters, quite a pronounced attack on what ESG was about,” Joe Dubbin, managing director at executive search firm Cripps Leadership Advisors, told the WSJ. “It has certainly filtered through into the hiring requirements that we’ve been tasked to go do.” …

Complicit Clergy: Bishop Weisenburger Attempts to Gaslight The Faithful on Illegal Immigration

By Complicit Clergy, Staff – Several days ago we published the story about O’Keefe Media Group infiltrating a secret illegal immigrant compound funded by the dioceses of Tuscon. We encouraged lay Catholics to contact Bishop Edward Weisenburger to express their concerns about this situation… One of our subscribers was kind enough to share with us the message he sent to the bishop along with the bishop’s response. As you will see in the bishop’s message, he’s tries to justify his operation by claiming none of the migrants being served are undocumented. He fails to address the fundamental question of whether these migrants illegally entered the United States. ….

Putin’s Propaganda Filibuster of Carlson, by Thomas Gallatin

By Thomas Gallatin, Patriot Post – … part of the criticism of Carlson likely stems from the fact that he, while a well-known name in news media, is now an outsider and one of the biggest faces of the growing online alternative media sphere… Carlson’s interview with Putin is a huge score for alternative media and will give it more credibility — exactly what the mainstream legacy media does not want to see happen… That said, there is the interview itself, which lasted some two hours and at times served to be little other than an opportunity for the old KGB propagandist to drone on about his twisted views of history and to ply his version of it.

Is Ukraine Bill a Pretext for Third Trump Impeachment? by Fred Lucas

The SPLC Seeks to Profit from Alleged ‘Hate’, by Jerry Newcombe

‘Green’ Mandates Force Us to Exploit Child Slaves in Africa, But at Least They Don’t Post Mean Tweets, by Jason Scott Jones

By Jason Scott Jones, The Stream – Team Biden swept into power on a wave of dubious ballot totals and spurious virtue signals… Kamala Harris gave away the real agenda when she admitted that culling the number of humans was in fact a key part of their plan: “When we invest in clean energy and electric vehicles and reduce population, more of our children can breathe clean air and drink clean water” she said at a 2023 event at Baltimore.

Could the Justices Go 9-0 on Colorado? by Douglas Andrews

By Douglas Andrews, Patriot Post – What gives Colorado the right to decide the presidency for the rest of the nation?… That seemed to be the sentiment last Thursday not only of the Supreme Court’s conservatives but also its liberals, as the Court heard oral arguments on whether Colorado could invoke the 14th Amendment’s Civil War-era “disqualification” clause to bar Donald Trump from its presidential primary ballot.

Dishonest Language, Truth, and Failed Policies, by James H. McGee

By James H. McGee, The American Spectator – Hard reality looms on every front, and the first step to confronting it — before it is too late — is to aggressively challenge these fantasies. We need to start insisting on “truth,” not “my truth,” or “your truth,” or “Humpty Dumpty’s truth,” but rather an honest and objective representation of things as they are, that is, “the truth,” as once upon a time we understood it. At present, “the” truth isn’t simply ignored, but rather inverted, turned upside down, divested of all legitimate meaning

The Bleak Future of Medicine, by Paul de Lacvivier

By Paul de Lacvivier, The Remnant – What are the characteristics of Christian medicine? … First of all, we know that historically, the greatest devotees of bodily life were essentially the greatest devotees of the salvation of souls: the nuns in particular, and the brothers. They were a kind of beacon for all doctors, who, even if they were atheists or apostates, could do no less well or be no less dedicated than the religious… The disappearance of this healthy competition is hastening the end of Christian medicine.

Meet The Republican Senators Who Lied About Prioritizing Border Security Over Ukraine Funding, by Samuel Mangold-Lenett

The Emperor Has No Memory, by Nate Jackson

By Nate Jackson, Patriot Post – Everyone knows that Joe Biden is incapable of continuing to serve as president.

Trump Has Reason to Rage—But Needs to Stay Calm and Get Even Rather than Mad, by Victor Davis Hanson

By Victor Davis Hanson, American Greatness – Trump must concentrate on the disaster of the Biden administration and reiterate nonstop the agendas of 2025 that will save us from tottering on the brink… Donald Trump gave one of his best and most conciliatory speeches of his political career after his win in the recent Iowa primaries—that might explain why the media would not cover it. Later, to answer an ad hoc ambush reporter’s question whether he would hold grudges, he emphatically said he did not.

Don’t Succumb to Putin Envy, by Jason Jones & John Zmirak

By Jason Jones & John Zmirak, The Stream – We watched the courageous journalist Tucker Carlson do the patriotic thing and interview Vladimir Putin. Yes, you read that right. It does show a love for your country to try to find out what its rivals are thinking. To provide an outside perspective that doesn’t fit the Official Story concocted by our Deep State, then imposed by our heavily censored media. To try defusing a potentially nuclear Third World War, and to seek a negotiated peace instead of the bloody “quagmire” our own Pentagon wants.

Putin Tells Tucker it Would Have Been ‘Culpable Negligence’ for Russia to Not Intervene in Ukraine, by Patrick Delaney

By Patrick Delaney, LifeSiteNew – In a much-anticipated interview with popular commentator Tucker Carlson, Russian President Vladimir Putin discussed his motivations behind invading Ukraine two years ago, the many decisions the United States and their partners made to provoke the war, the CIA’s ability to disregard the policy of U.S. presidents, and the notion that Russia intends to invade Western Europe as obviously “imaginary.”

Prosecutor: Biden Not Only Kept, But SHARED Classified Documents! by Bob Unruh

By Bob Unruh, World Net Daily – A special prosecutor has determined that Joe Biden did, indeed, take and keep classified government papers to which he was not entitled, and even shared the information with others… Multiple acts violated federal law, but Biden isn’t going to be charged, as least partly because his “age and poor memory would create reasonable doubt for jurors,” according to a report in Just the News.

Democrats Have Declared A Spiritual Civil War On America – While Most Bishops Remain Silent, by Richard Viguerie

By Richard Viguerie, Conservative HQ – There is a lot of talk and debate about whether the U.S. is drifting into a civil war: Were the 2020 urban riots acts of civil war, was the January 6, 2021 protest at the U.S. Capitol an “insurrection,” is what’s going on at the Texas-Mexico border the prelude to something bigger?… There’s been a Civil War – a Spiritual Civil War – going on in America since long before 2020, and we conservatives are losing… For most of the second half of the 20th Century, we were in a Cultural War with the Left; however, conservatives didn’t realize it, and certainly didn’t act like it, and therefore we lost the Cultural War.

Blog: The Bombshell Letter Every American Must Read, by Elizabeth Yore

By Elizabeth Yore, Yore Children – In three very short years, a silent and surreptitious invasion was underway. A war is being organized by enemies from many countries who were invited in by the Biden Administration to destroy us.  These are the times that will test the souls of every American. Pay attention to the final warning from the 10 brave retired FBI patriots: “The threat we call out today is new and unfamiliar. In its modern history the U.S. has never suffered an invasion of the homeland, and, yet, one is unfolding now. Military age men from across the globe, many from countries or regions not friendly to the United States, are landing in waves on our soil by the thousands – not by splashing ashore from a ship or parachuting from a plane but rather by foot across a border, but rather by foot across a border that has been accurately advertised around the world as largely unprotected with ready access granted.”

Under The Senate’s Atrocious Border Bill, Everybody Gets Asylum, by Margot Cleveland

By Margot Cleveland, The Federalist – The Senate’s emergency appropriations bill released on Sunday won’t address the border crisis, and contrary to the accomplice media’s spin, the spending bill won’t “severely curtail asylum at the US southern border.”… The irony here is that the Biden administration’s reversal of the Trump policies has fortified the funding of cartels, gangs, and traffickers — so much so that those flooding our shores will now be able to honestly say their government cannot protect them.

(Catholic) Bishops Helping Deploy Major Migrant Crime Wave Across America, by Bob Price

Senate Staffer Avoids Punishment With ‘Rainbow Privilege’, by Thomas Gallatin

By Thomas Gallatin, Patriot Post – The reason this story is so shameful — beyond the now-public sexual deviancy of a Senate staffer — is the blatant undermining of the foundational principles of our legal system. Treating any identity group as a privileged group for which the laws of the land are not enforced equally and without prejudice is to do injustice. Furthermore, arguing that because these groups may have suffered past injustices, they now deserve special treatment makes a mockery of the equal application of the law and further erodes confidence in our justice system.

Is Biden Malicious, Incompetent, or Conniving? by Victor Davis Hanson

By Victor Davis Hanson, American Greatness – Things are becoming so strange, so surreal, so nihilistic in contemporary America that the chaos can only be deliberate. Chance, incompetence, and accident could not alone explain the series of disasters we now daily witness that are nearly destroying the country… When the ailing and non-compos-mentis president now speaks, he rarely becomes excited about Iranian or terrorist provocations. ….

Complicit Clergy: Could This Be Why Bishops Appear To Hate Trump And Love Biden?

By Staff, Complicit Clergy – During the past two presidential campaigns, many faithful Catholics were perplexed by what appeared to be a consistent campaign to undermine Donald Trump. In 2016, Pope Francis called Trump’s plan to build a wall on the US/Mexico border “disgraceful” and that Donald Trump “is not Christian.” Then compare the reception that Trump received when he visited the Vatican on 2016 to that of Joe Biden in October 2021.

NYC Launches $53M Program To Give Illegals Pre-Paid Credit Cards

By Brittany M. Hughes, MRC TV – New York City is launching a $53 million dollar plan to give illegal aliens pre-paid credit cards… the multi-million-dollar, taxpayer-backed project will be similar to the city’s program offering food assistance to low-income residents, and will start with 500 illegal alien families currently staying at the Roosevelt Hotel. The amount handed out per family will depend on their size, but a family of four could get as much as $1,000 a month, the Post reports. The cards will be refilled every 28 days.

Regime Christians Are Sadducees Who Don’t Care if Their Children Live Free, by John Zmirak

By John Zmirak, The Stream – If you have been paying attention since 2016, you’ll have noticed a great sifting of Christians, which sorted the sheep from the goats. Remember those “NeverTrump” Christians who sniffed at Trump’s candidacy disdainfully, and warned that he somehow posed a threat to all the norms and even the rules of democratic politics?… Those same people, mostly, are now either silent or complicit when the Biden administration operates lawlessly to prosecute its opponents. ….

French Bishops Express Solidarity With Striking Farmers, by Jonah McKeown

J6 Committee Admits Its Show Trials Were An Election-Year Publicity Stunt, by Tristan Justice

By Tristan Justice, The Federalist – Key members of the since-disbanded Select Committee on January 6th admit in a new PBS documentary that the entire operation was an election-year publicity stunt… On Wednesday, Frontline PBS published a new documentary, “Democracy on Trial,” chronicling the House committee’s work. Pivotal players on the partisan probe conceded in the two-and-half-hour documentary that the panel’s public performances produced for prime-time television were orchestrated as entertainment media.

The Biden Administration Is Treading On Texas’ Sovereignty, Not The Other Way Around, by Margot Cleveland

By Margot Cleveland, The Federalist – Democrat accomplice media have been misrepresenting nearly everything about Texas’ efforts to secure the border. But it’s time to separate fact from fiction… For starters: No, Texas isn’t flouting the Supreme Court. Last week, the court vacated a lower court injunction that prohibited the federal government from removing razor-wire fencing that Texas had erected on the border. Coverage of both the decision and Texas’ response was replete with errors.

Team Biden Targets Peaceful Pro-Life Activists, by Thomas Gallatin

By Thomas Gallatin, Patriot Post – While the Biden administration pays lip service to “equity” and “justice,” their actions belie the fact that they are motivated by no such altruistic concerns. Rather, it’s all about promoting their political agenda and selectively applying the law when it suits them. A case in point is the Biden administration’s targeting of pro-life advocates and activists with the dubious and likely unconstitutional Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act, also known as FACE.

Biden Sends Millions to Religious Nonprofits Facilitating Mass Illegal Migration, by Todd Bensman

By Todd Bensman, Center for Immigration Studies – A follow-up CIS examination of the more than 30 faith-based nonprofits among those UN NGO partners — representing Jewish, Lutheran, Seventh Day Adventist, Catholic, and nondenominational evangelical organizations — shows that the U.S. State Department’s Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM) and the USAID have been mainlining taxpayer funds to these groups, which then distribute them to keep hundreds of thousands of migrants comfortably moving toward illegal U.S. southern border crossings. ….

“Net-Zero” Misses the Point by Pointing in the Wrong Direction, by Chilton Williamson, Jr. 

By Chilton Williamson, Jr., Catholic World Report – The green movement—the scientific and governmental parts of it, anyway—is not proposing to replace human arrogance vis-à-vis nature with humility, as environmentalists have been urging for a century or more. Rather, it is raising arrogance to a higher level by assuming that humans are capable of dominating and controlling nature even more completely in the future than they did in the past, repairing the damage already done while simultaneously preventing further harm in future centuries by their quasi-divine powers of imagination, invention, manipulation, and control.

Human Life International: The World Health Organization: On a Mission to End Humanity?

By Human Life International, The Stream – The powerful World Health Organization appears to be working hard to hasten the end of the human race, according to the global life-advocates at Human Life International. As the United Nation’s designated preserver of the world’s health, the new World Health Organization Pandemic Agreement is designed to increase disease and encourage unhealthy behaviors… This recent directive coming out of this international government body demands that all nations follow their lead to “counteract conservative opposition” and “enact progressive laws” ….

This Forgotten ’90s Movie Eerily Predicted The Current Immigration Standoff, by Mark Hemingway

By Mark Hemingway, Book Editor, The Federalist – If you want to understand how mass immigration became the biggest flashpoint in American politics, a surprisingly entertaining and unjustly forgotten HBO movie deserves to be watched… Stop me if you’ve heard this one before — a red-state governor, in the midst of a nationwide immigration crisis, defies the president and shuts down the state’s borders to prevent more immigrants from coming in. This leads other states suffering from the effects of mass illegal immigration to rally around the state defying the president ….

Omar Pledges Allegiance to Somalia, by Douglas Andrews

By Douglas Andrews, Patriot Post – Omar, a hard-left House Democrat and Squad member who represents Minnesota’s 5th Congressional District, delivered a speech on Saturday at the Hyatt Regency in Minneapolis, but we suspect she wasn’t counting on it being translated from Somali and published in English on the Internet. That was her first mistake… Her second mistake was speaking in a way that can only be described as nakedly anti-American. …

Sen. Kennedy: These Open-Border Terrorist Threat Numbers ‘Will Make You Throw Up’

By Craig Bannister, MRCTV – “The numbers that I’m about to give you will make you throw up,” Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) says in a video documenting the growing threat of terrorism caused by Pres. Biden’s open-border policies… “President Biden’s border policies are not just a human rights disaster, though they certainly are. But his policies have also provided the perfect cover for terrorist sympathizers, child sex offenders, for cartel associates to enter the United States illegally.”

EDITORIAL: Let’s Pray That Texas Doesn’t Blink, by Eric Sammons

By Eric Sammons, Editor-in-chief, Crisis Magazine – The years-long showdown between Texas and the Federal Government over the Texas-Mexico border took a dramatic—and potentially dangerous—turn this week. The Supreme Court (with Amy Coney Barrett as the deciding vote) ruled that Texas could not prevent the Federal Government from taking down the barbed wire fence that Texas installed along part of the border. In turn, Texas Governor Greg Abbott ordered the Texas National Guard to defend the barbed wire fence (and thus the border), saying that it was a matter of the state’s self-defense that supersedes the Supreme Court ruling.

By Emily Mangiaracina, LifeSiteNews – Former FBI executives have warned Congress that military-age men from “hostile” nations and regions are invading the U.S. through the southern border, significantly elevating the risk of a terror attack… Cautioning that the threat “may be one of the most pernicious ever to menace the United States,” ten retired FBI senior executives warned congressional leaders in a letter last week that “military aged men” from “hostile” areas around the world are arriving by the thousands from across the southern border.

Louisiana Attorney General Wins Case Against EPA’s Racist Mandates, by Evan Poellinger

By Evan Poellinger, MRC TV – Rep. La. AG Liz Murrill has secured a victory from a U.S. District Court, preventing the state from being forced to implement a set of racially-discriminatory regulations from the EPA… On Tuesday, U.S. District Judge James Cain issued a ruling, in which he granted the state a preliminary injunction against “imposing or enforcing any disparate impact requirements against the State of Louisiana or any state agency,” along with, “imposing or enforcing any Title VI requirements upon the State of Louisiana or any state agency.”

How Do Pro-Lifers Keep Influence as Trump Rolls Up Victories? by Jason Jones & John Zmirak

By Jason Jones & John Zmirak, The Stream – John Zmirak: Is it good news for the pro-life cause, what’s happening in the Republican primaries? On the surface, it seems that we ought to be worried. The most solidly principled pro-life candidate, Ron De Santis, dropped out after losing big in heavily evangelical Iowa. So he’s not there to put pressure on Trump from the right. Pro-choice-with-exceptions Nikki Haley continues to campaign, rolling up votes from Democrats who don’t really support her. The media will play that as pressure on Trump from the left, and use it to argue that Trump has to abandon his already squishy pro-life stands, in order to win the votes …..

Texas Is Correct to Defend Its Sovereignty From the Border Invasion, by Josh Hammer

By Josh Hammer, Patriot Post – The mass invasion now transpiring at the U.S. southern border is illegal, immoral and unsustainable. Its scope is truly unprecedented in our history, posing a mortal threat to the nation. God bless Greg Abbott and the great state of Texas, who rightfully cherish their sovereignty and righteously refuse to bend the knee to the most lawless presidential administration in American history.

Would Jesus Use Razor Wire at Borders? Would He Gaslight People with Dishonest ‘WWJD’ Arguments? by John Zmirak

By John Zmirak, The Stream – You’re seeing it already: the attempt to snap Christians’ spines and render us invertebrates, to leash us via our heartstrings, to shame us into silence about the Biden regime’s lawlessness at the border… As a Catholic, I’m used to this dreck. I’ve been inundated with open borders agitprop by professional Catholics for decades. Some of that, to be fair, was motivated by a perverse hatred for Western civilization and masochistic white guilt. But most of it was straight up self-interest, a craving for warm bodies in pews, and greed for gold.

Six Pro-Lifers Face FACE Act Charges in Tennessee, Could See 11 Years in Jail, by Joe Bukuras

By Joe Bukuras, CNA – Six pro-life activists are on trial in Nashville, Tennessee, facing federal charges related to a 2021 blockade of a nearby abortion clinic… The blockade, documented in a March 5, 2021, video posted on Facebook, showed a large group of pro-life activists ranging from elderly to young children walking into an abortion clinic and blocking access to the door by sitting in front of it.

The Immigration Crisis Shows Just How Much Contempt America’s Establishment Has For Democracy, by Mark Hemingway

By Mark Hemingway, The Federalist – At a minimum, Biden’s complete disregard for border enforcement is a far bigger threat to America’s security and constitutional order than anything that happened on Trump’s watch, Jan. 6 included, an event the media and Democrats have been bleating about for three years. Yet how much discussion have you seen in The New York Times lately about Biden’s corrupt responsibility for America’s immigration disaster?

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott Stands Firm Against Federal Lawlessness, Foreign Invasion, by John Zmirak

By John Zmirak, The Stream – Unless you live inside an unlit cave deep below the Ural Mountains, you know about the confrontation now between our lawless federal government and the state of Texas over the border. The federal branch of government under Biden has been simply refusing for three years to enforce our binding, democratically enacted immigration laws. Let that sink in for a moment… Imagine if for four years Donald Trump had simply refused to enforce our civil rights laws. Or declined to prosecute financial fraud. Or arbitrarily suspended the enforcement of any other key federal function, for blatantly political reasons.

Debunking Biden’s ‘Billionaire’ Tax Canard, by Douglas Andrews

By Douglas Andrews, Patriot Post – But it’s not just race that Joe Biden uses to divide us; he also uses wealth… “Look, folks,” he said earlier this month in his folksy way, “you know how many billionaires we have in America today? One thousand. You know what their average rate — tax rate — federal tax rate is? Federal tax rate is 8.5%. Raise your hand if you’d trade your tax rate for 8.5%. I’m serious. Think about this. There’d be $40 billion raised if they even pay 25%.”… Only trouble is, it’s not true.

Here Are All The States Standing With Texas Against Biden’s Border Assault, by Jordan Boyd

By Jordan Boyd, The Federalist – More than two dozen states expressed support for Texas Gov. Greg Abbott after he refused to kowtow to the Biden administration’s bullying about the ongoing border crisis… The Supreme Court ruled on Jan. 22 that the federal border officials could cut razor wire installed by the Texas National Guard along the Rio Grande if they felt it impeded their ability to do their jobs. …

Another American Victim of Biden’s Border Negligence, by Thomas Gallatin

By Thomas Gallatin, Patriot Post – The claim of many on the Left who support Joe Biden’s de facto open border is that it is a humane policy of compassion toward the plight of migrants seeking safety and a better life. And to muddy the waters even further, they insist that since America is a nation of immigrants, we have no right to keep other immigrants out. They often follow this by asserting that apprehending illegal aliens is motivated by racism. …

‘I knew Exactly What They Were Doing’: Texas AG Explains How Dems Stole 2020 Election, by Jim Hoft

By WND News Services, Jim Hoft – Texas RINOs, including Bush and Rove allies, wanted Texas AG Ken Paxton gone so they made up some accusations against him without evidence in an attempt to impeach him… AG Ken Paxton is the one man who has stood up against the Democrat-Marxist onslaught in the great state of Texas.

Cardinal McElroy Calls for Catholic Universities to Promote Laudato Si’, Climate Change Action, by Emily Mangiaracina

By Emily Mangiaracina, LifeSiteNews – Cardinal Robert McElroy of San Diego called for Catholic universities to “lead on climate change action” as articulated in Pope Francis’ environmental encyclical Laudato Si’ promoting climate alarmism… McElroy claimed, contrary to Church teaching, that “Climate change and the degradation of the earth are the most important global moral challenge… For this reason alone, Laudato Si’ should be a focus for every Catholic university.”

Ohio Bans Transgender Surgeries for Minors, Protects Women’s Sports, by Tierin-Rose Mandelburg

By Tierin-Rose Mandelburg, MRC TV – Ohio Conservatives are jumping for joy today… In a 23-9 vote Wednesday, the Ohio Senate voted to override Republican Governor Mike DeWine’s veto of legislation that would ban transgender surgeries for minors and keep transgender women out of women’s sports. In layman’s terms, the so-called “Republican” governor wanted kids to be able to get their genitals mutilated and didn’t care if women’s sports were unfair or unsafe. …

Abbott: Texas Has A Constitutional Right To Defend Its Sovereignty, by Shawn Fleetwood

By Shawn Fleetwood, The Federalist – Texas Gov. Greg Abbott issued a statement on Wednesday asserting that the Lone Star State has a constitutional right to defend its sovereignty in the wake of an invasion facilitated by President Biden’s open border policies… “The federal government has broken the compact between the United States and the States.

Texas Gov. Abbott: ‘This Is Not Over’, by Craig Bannister

Javier Milei: A Thorn in the Globalists’ Side, by Scott Ventureyra

By Scott Ventureyra, Crisis Magazine – The president of Argentina, Javier Milei, is at it again. He’s ruffling all the right feathers, at the right time, and in the right place. From January 15 to 19, 2024, the World Economic Forum (WEF) hosted its 54th annual meeting. On day three, January 17, 2024, he delivered his historic speech. But before we discuss some of the highlights of Milei’s speech, it would be important to situate the context of his speech by briefly explaining what the WEF is, who the key players involved are, and its agenda.

By Tyler Arnold, Catholic News Agency – Pres. Joe Biden’s administration on Monday announced new plans to increase access to surgical abortion, chemical abortion, and contraceptives, with the move coming on the 51st anniversary of the Supreme Court’s now-defunct Roe v. Wade ruling… The White House’s push includes new guidance from the HHS to support surgical abortion through a federal law that guarantees “emergency medical treatment.” The plan also moves forward with prior executive actions to provide easier access to chemical abortions through federal regulation. ….

The Whole Point Is the Hidden Point, by Sean Fitzpatrick

By Sean Fitzpatrick, Crisis Magazine – (Eric Sammons) has a point. Why vote if there are only foregone conclusions—and rarely in a way that promotes Catholic life? Why beat a dead horse when it can’t work anymore? Acknowledging the validity of such questions, I believe that there is a point to consider—not one that negates what Mr. Sammons has written but one that is higher than these political concerns and of eminently pious concern. A point that appears pointless, which is the whole reason why it is the point.

Meet 5 Accused Pedophiles Who Bought Kids Through Surrogacy, by Katy Faust

By Katy Faust, The Federalist – Surrogacy is risky for children. Not just the risk of a primal wound via intentional birth mother separation. Not just the risk of identity struggles if their genetic mother is purchased from a catalog. Not just the risk of mother-hunger if they are raised in a home absent maternal love… Surrogacy puts children at risk for the worst kinds of abuse. …

By Craig Bannister, CNSNews – More than 4 in 10 Democrat voters say Pres.

Biden has worked to systematically undermine America’s border security. … The result is a humanitarian and national security catastrophe”?

Bill Gates Set Up 20 Shell Companies to Hide Purchase of $113 Million of Nebraska Farmland, by Destiny Herbers

By Destiny Herbers, Flatwater Free Press – The limited liability companies, buried under layers of business names, overlapping employees and addresses in at least three states, form a network more tangled and opaque than the one created by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which is buying a giant amount of Nebraska ranch land… The buyer’s name: Bill Gates… The billionaire who co-founded Microsoft has, in the past six years, spent more than $113 million buying Nebraska farmland …

Over 500 DEI Jobs at University of Michigan Create $30 Million Boondoggle, by Evan Poellinger

By Evan Poellinger, MRC TV – The Univ. of Michigan is spending in excess of $30 million on more than 500 positions focused on diversity, equity, and inclusions (DEI)… An analysis by The College Fix found 241 jobs devoted exclusively to DEI, and more than 500 overall. It delineates the costs associated with Michigan’s DEI jobs, including $23.24 million set aside for employee salaries with an additional $7.44 million allotted for employee benefits. Yet, even this represents only a fraction of the total positions at Michigan with a focus on DEI, which amounts to over 500 positions

By Joy Pullmann, Executive Editor, The Federalist – Americans who shopped at sporting goods stores and bought religious books “like a Bible” were flagged through their banks as potential domestic terrorists, Rep. Jim Jordan revealed Jan. 17… The federal government also flagged as potential criminals any transactions that involved the terms “MAGA” or “Trump.”… These Americans were tagged as possible “violent extremists” with zero due process or even notification of this criminalization of their constitutional rights to property, free speech, consent to their government’s activities, and religious exercise.

Biden Takes Texas To SCOTUS Over Border Dispute, by P. Gardner Goldsmith

By P. Gardner Goldsmith, MRC TV – The increasing heat between state governments and the feds may be reaching a virtual boiling point, as the Biden Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Friday added a supplemental filing to the Administration’s days-old request for the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) to “reinstate” federal control over the southern Texas border with Mexico.

The Brew: United Chooses DEI Over Friendly Skies, by Al Perrotta

By Al Perrotta, The Stream – Yesterday we mentioned how Delta and the FAA have fallen under the DEI/woke spell.

Right now, only 19% of pilots at United are women or people of color.

Speaker Johnson Cut His Bad Deal Because Republicans Don’t Want To Cut Spending, by Christopher Jacobs

By Christopher Jacobs, The Federalist – As I wrote last week, “Speaker Johnson and Republican ‘leadership’ … bailed the Democrats out of the predicament they put themselves in last May.” To which I should make an important addition: In many ways, Johnson didn’t bail out Democrats from a tough political predicament as much as he did his own Republican members. Because most Republicans don’t want to reduce spending — and they don’t want their constituents to know that either.

By Mike Huckabee, The Stream – We are just hours away from the Iowa Caucuses which will be the first real test of the 2024 Presidential Election. Having won the caucuses in 2008, I do understand some things about them and their importance.

Biden ‘Saves’ Democracy by Destroying It, by Victor Davis Hanson

By Victor Davis Hanson, American Greatness – When faced with the possible return of President Donald Trump, the current agenda of the Democratic Party is summed up simply as “We had to destroy democracy to save it.”… The effort shares a common theme: any means necessary are justified to prevent the people from choosing their own president, given the fear that a majority might vote to elect Donald Trump.

As Biden Luxuriates… U.S. Torn Apart By Border Plan To Transform It For Democrats, by Dexter Duggan

By Dexter Duggan, The Wanderer – Senile Democrat Joe Biden lawlessly has thrown open U.S. borders to unauthorized entry potentially by everyone in the entire world, and millions are streaming in, as Marxist-tainted Biden plans to crush U.S. citizens and change the very nature of this nation in order to benefit far-left Democrats electorally… This probably is the most dictatorial, sweeping illegal action ever taken by a U.S. president in history.

Why Is Oil Production Booming Under Biden? by Thomas Gallatin

By Thomas Gallatin, Patriot Post – While it’s true that more oil is being produced now than under Trump, there’s a massive caveat — namely, that oil production in America has increased despite Biden, not because of him. Indeed, Biden has done much to hurt future oil production, and we may not fully feel it for years…. For the foreseeable future, to meet America’s growing energy demands, fossil fuels will have to remain the primary energy source, and Biden’s green vision will remain a pipe dream — albeit an expensive one.

WHO Planning Another COVID ‘Coup’ to Establish ‘Totalitarian Planet,’ Podcaster Tells Tucker, by Stephen Kokx

By Stephen Kokx, LifeSiteNews – Former professor Bret Weinstein explained that the WHO is seeking to strengthen its ability to mandate vaccines, require gene therapy shots, restrict travel, forbid the use of certain treatments, and censor those who push unapproved information and that there is ‘very little hope’ the U.S. will derail those efforts… Weinstein is a former professor of evolutionary biology… (and) A self-described “progressive, left-libertarian,”… (said) “I think it is fair to say that we are in the middle of a coup, that we are actually facing the elimination of our national and our personal sovereignty… I suspect that some powerful set of forces has decided that consent of the governed is too dangerous to tolerate and that it has begun to unhook it.”

What’s the Point? by Eric Sammons

By Eric Sammons, Crisis Magazine – The presidential primary season begins in less than two weeks, and the ridiculousness of this year’s cycle should not be overlooked. First, the primaries are foregone conclusions, met with all the enthusiasm of a parish singing “Be Not Afraid” for the 487th time in the past decade. Both the Democratic and Republican nominations are already locked up, at least on paper, and Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., who at first promised to shake things up a bit, hasn’t really moved the needle ….

America’s ‘Social Justice’ Nightmares Have Only Intensified, by Robert Stacy McCain

By Robert Stacy McCain, The American Spectator – Seattle is in King County, Washington, where Joe Biden got 75 percent of the vote in the 2020 election. King County had more than 1,000 drug overdoses involving fentanyl in 2023. These two facts are almost certainly related, but which is the cause and which the effect?… Beyond sarcastic put-downs, it behooves those interested in public policy to take a look at what’s going on in places like Seattle, where Democrats dominate and “progressive” ideas therefore advance unhindered by any effective opposition. ….

Counterfeited Christianity & the Lie of Fiducia Supplicans, by Robert Lazu Kmita

By Robert Lazu Kmita, Remnant Columnist, The Remnant – To maintain the appearance of the proletariat’s triumphant ascending path to the “multilaterally developed socialist society,” the communists came up with a clever trick after the 1980s: ‘substitute’ foods. All of these were actually surrogate foods. I’ll give you just one example: coffee. It gradually disappeared from the stores in the ‘80s. Instead, a substitute coffee called, ironically, ‘nechezol’ emerged… Here’s how ‘nechezol’ is described: “Nechezol contained only one-fifth coffee, the balance typically consisting of barley, oats, chickpeas and chestnuts. Its pejorative nickname is derived from the verb ‘a necheza’ (to neigh) ….

The Only School Shootings Corporate Media Don’t Hype Are By Gender-Fluid Murderers, by Jordan Boyd

By Jordan Boyd, Staff Writer, The Federalist – Only five days have passed since a 17-year-old shot up his school in Perry, Iowa, killing one and injuring five.

‘Democracy,’ He Cried, by Douglas Andrews

A Culture in Collapse, by Victor Davis Hanson

By Victor Davis Hanson, American Greatness – In the last six months, we have borne witness to many iconic moments evidencing the collapse of American culture… The signs are everywhere… Our descent is self-induced; it is not a symptom of a foreign attack or subterfuge. Our erosion is not the result of poverty and want, but of leisure and excess. We are not suffering from existential crises of famine, plague, or the collapse of our grid and fuel sources… What is happening to us is not due to an adherence to a too strict conservative tradition but is almost exclusively the wage of the progressive project.

Mexican Cartels Make Bank, by Emmy Griffin

By Emmy Griffin, Patriot Post – Immigrants who are choosing to enter the U.S. illegally have to go through the cartels. The Mexican cartels have a monopoly on the various methods of getting into the U.S. through gaps in the border wall. But though the migrants have the freedom to choose to enter the U.S. this way, the cartels are happy to inflict as much misery and extortion as they can and exacerbate the humanitarian crisis created by President Joe Biden’s open border.

Cardinal Dolan: Illegal Immigration “Helps Our Church”, by Christopher Manion

By Christopher Manion, The Wanderer – Regardless of any motions that the bishops might adopt every four years affirming the “preeminent issue of abortion,” immigration continues to consume most of their energy… One factor is money.

The Association of Mature American Citizens Has Quietly Become A Conservative Powerhouse, by Mark Hemingway

By Mark Hemingway, Book Editor, The Federalist – If there is a silver lining to the corruption of the AARP, it’s that it is no longer the only interest group representing politically influential seniors. In 2007, Dan Weber founded the Association of Mature American Citizens (AMAC). Though Weber had himself been a member of the AARP, he was frustrated with the politically liberal direction of the organization, which was far more radical than most members realized. Though initially the organization existed only in Florida and New York, in 2009 AMAC went national and began recruiting members as a conservative alternative to AARP.

In Brief: Massacred Nigerian Christians Deserve Our Outrage, by Peter Heck

By Peter Heck, Patriot Post – The media and public were rightly outraged when Hamas slaughtered Jews. Why don’t Christians get the same sympathy?… I remain both curious and sincerely disappointed, however, that while the horrors of Hamas and the suffering of Israelis has gotten effective media attention, a continuing, gory Christian persecution continues unabated in Nigeria while drawing only the slightest mention in international media, and virtually none this side of the Atlantic.

We Should Think About Rome — But Not For Her Glories, by Casey Chalk

By Casey Chalk, The Federalist – There is much we can learn by studing Rome’s descent into oblivion… The year in “a word,” according to a Dec. 22 Financial Times article, is “The Roman [E]mpire.” The Roman Empire also happened to tie into one of the year’s top social media trends, according to The New York Times. That’s pretty impressive, given it was only in September that people the world over were suddenly fascinated, perplexed, and amused by how often men think about it.

Leprosy, Polio, Malaria, TB, Measles … and Massive Unscreened Illegal Immigration, by James Varney

By James Varney, The Stream – In 1999 the nation’s last hospital for lepers closed its doors in Louisiana. A global campaign eradicated smallpox, while lethal tuberculosis, the “consumption” that stalked characters in decades of literature, seemed beaten by antibiotics. Measles outbreaks still occur from time to time, but they are small, local, and easily contained… Recently, however, some of these forgotten but still formidable infectious diseases have begun to reappear in the U.S. For two years running, polio has been detected in some New York water samples, and this fall, leprosy re-emerged in Florida, where cases of malaria have also been recorded. ….

Stop Funding the ‘Rights for Migrants’ Legal Scam, by Betsy McCaughey

By Betsy McCaughey, Patriot Post – As a record number of migrants invade the U.S., wreaking pain on New York City and other communities, one group is winning big-time: the public advocacy lawyers.

The Gay Persecution of Pastors Has Begun. It Will Only Get Worse, Thanks to Pope Francis, by John Zmirak

By John Zmirak, The Stream – But we aren’t there yet. That’s the wholesale persecution, which eventually will include criminal charges of violating gay couples’ “civil rights” from the same Justice Department that’s already infiltrating traditional Catholic churches in Virginia… For now, what we’re seeing is retail, volunteer, grassroots persecution by individual homosexuals of priests whom they suspect of holding to biblical morality.

Rainbow is Thy Fame, by Mary Frances Myler

(prepares) to retire after an 18-year tenure, Jenkins has built on Hesburgh’s legacy with the continued growth of fundraising and research facilities.

The day of most darkness, but come tomorrow … more and more light… The political world is still trying to grasp the shocking, historic decision by the Colorado State Supreme Court Tuesday evening to up and declare former President Trump guilty of insurrection and boot him off the state ballot. It’s Colorado, so perhaps we can shrug it off as “too much weed” and assume the Supreme Court will clean it up. Unfortunately, the decision is much more ominous than that.

Anarchy is now at the core of the new Democratic Party… If the Left wished radically to alter the demography of the U.S., it could have expanded legal immigration through legislation or the courts… Instead, it simply erased the border and dynamited federal immigration law… By fiat, nihilists ended the wall, and stopped detaining and deporting illegal aliens altogether.

We Must Fight as Hard as Our Enemies, Who Won’t Repent Until They are Beaten, by John Zmirak

By John Zmirak, The Stream – Let’s not fool ourselves. We conservative Christians are fighting for our lives and our freedom in self-defense against richer, more powerful enemies with vastly more institutional resources than we have. What we do have is scruples, which they don’t. In the short term, that’s our handicap… Nor are we nearly as hungry as those who hate us.

America’s Catholics Weigh in On Pope Francis’ Climate Change Priorities, by Jonah McKeown

Exclusive: Texas AG Ken Paxton Sues Pfizer For ‘False, Deceptive’ Covid Jab Con

By Jordan Boyd, The Federalist – Pfizer debuted the jab in late 2020 with the promise that it was 95 percent effective against Covid-19 infection.

By John Zmirak, The Stream – If you’re not at least half-Irish (as I am) you might not be following the anarcho-tyranny engulfing tiny Ireland. But you should be: It’s a dress rehearsal for what our elite want to try right here, in another English-speaking country where the Magna Carta once meant something. So Steve Bannon told Tucker Carlson in the latter’s most recent show…. To stomp out dissent against the colonization of Ireland with massive, heavily Muslim, immigration, authorities there have proposed the most draconian “hate speech” laws in any Western country.

Thomas Sowell’s “Social Justice Fallacies”, by Chuck Chalberg

By Chuck Chalberg, The Imaginative Conservative – Thomas Sowell is quite content to make his case while he waits for the political tide to turn. The way things are going, this nonagenarian may still be on hand when conservative black politicians are the major American voice of this American minority.

By Mark Alexander, Publisher, The Patriot Post – Sometimes the strident tone of rancorous political disputes can drown out all that is good and right about our great nation and our people.

Canon Law Expert Pens Open Letter to U.S. Bishops Regarding Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC), by Marjorie Murphy Campbell

By Marjorie Murphy Campbell, Chrisian Review – (Dear) Your Excellencies, As you gather to meet in Baltimore, I pray that you will elevate consideration of the safety of the unaccompanied migrant children who have passed through, or are in, the care of the U.S. Catholic Church. These children are referred to as Unaccompanied Alien Children under the USCCB funding from the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) and are known within USCCB as “UACs”… they are children illegally trafficked into the United States, whether by familial adults, coyotes, or cartels. They are not aliens; they are children separated from their families and communities, ushered by adults to rugged and perilous territory to cross an international border alone ….

By Releasing the J6 Tapes, Speaker Mike Johnson May Have Saved America, by John Zmirak

By John Zmirak, The Stream – Do you believe in letting the Democrats steal our elections, stifle any challenges, and unjustly imprison citizens who protest all that — and will you collude with Democrats to keep secret exculpatory evidence so that innocent Americans rot in prison, while leftist arsonists and rioters walk free?… Because if a candidate in word or deed betrays that his answer is “Yes,” all his pro-life palaver and patriotic jabber mean nothing. They’re a “noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.” A pro-fraud Republican — calling a spade a spade — who claims that he cares about unborn life, or secure American borders, or any other issue, isn’t really telling the truth.

The GOP Is A Fake Opposition Party With No Vision For The Country, by Shawn Fleetwood

By Shawn Fleetwood, The Federalist – When Louisiana’s Mike Johnson was pulled from obscurity and elected House speaker last month, many conservatives were cautiously optimistic that the man with the self-professed biblical “worldview” and somewhat solid voting record would be the fighter they’ve needed to halt Democrats’ Marxist takeover of society.

Grassley’s Bombshells Show House Investigators Exactly Where To Aim Their Next Biden Subpoenas, by Margot Cleveland

Additional subpoenas, as well as requests for transcribed interviews, were served on other Biden family members and business associates.

Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, not-so-subtly suggested late last month.

Can the Blood of Christ Wash Away White Guilt? by John Zmirak

By John Zmirak, The Stream – Facing this subject, however, I really am of two minds and must admit it. On the one hand, White Guilt is a cancer that’s eating away our civilization, corrupting the Church and empowering political movements dominated by demons. … then there’s White Guilt’s comical side. It is also a ludicrous, transparent, contemptible form of preening; a cheap way of signaling “virtue” without lifting a finger for anyone; a means of clawing your way into a higher social class and showing contempt for your innocent neighbors — who haven’t yet acquired this “prestige” accoutrement.

Marx and Lenin Explain It All for You, by David Carlin

Msgr. Richard C. Antall: We Live Among Barbarians

By Msgr. Richard C. Antall, Crisis Magazine – Ohio’s Issue One, which enshrines abortion on demand—and up to nine months of pregnancy—has won. We know that it was an unequal struggle: the proponents of abortion outspent the opponents of this extremist abortion amendment by 3 to 1. Much of that money has been from out of state. The millionaires and celebrities who have intervened have been abortion advocates à outrance, and in our culture money and fame have deleterious influence in the population.

Ohio Passes Issue 1 to Allow Killing Babies in Abortions Up to Birth, by Steven Ertelt 

By Steven Ertelt, LifeNews – Ohio voters approved Issue 1 (Tuesday night) after a monumental abortion battle in the Buckeye State. With 57 percent of the vote counted, Ohio voted 56% to 44% for Issue 1, which will make killing babies in abortions a so-called “right” in the state constitution… The result was not surprising given how abortion advocates bought the vote. Also, Ohio voters also voted today on a ballot measure to legalize marijuana. That very likely increased turnout of liberal voters who were more likely to vote for abortion.

By John M. Grondelski, Ph.D., Catholic World Report – Issue One declares that “every individual has the right to make and carry out one’s own reproductive decisions, including … abortion.” Now, when it comes to the unborn child, is he a “person” or not?… Issue One is unclear. Is he a “person” whose personhood doesn’t count, or at least is preempted by the decision to have an abortion? Or is he not a person at all? Is he a never a person, sometimes a person, or always a person? Issue One doesn’t answer that question, at least clearly.

OHIO: Issue 1 Would Allow Sex Changes on Minor Children Without Parents Even Knowing, Vote NO, by Ken Blackwell

By William Mahoney, Ph.D., Church Militant – In response to HB6, in which the House approved $1.5 billion for Gov. Greg Abbott’s efforts to build border barriers, aiming for an additional 50 miles of barrier and maintenance of the planned 40 miles, Seitz claimed the lawmakers were wasting money… Bishop Seitz’s recent statements are part of a broader trend, highlighting the USCCB’s consistent support for Democratic-aligned issues, ranging from open borders to restrictions on free speech. …

By Craig Bannister, MRC TV – “We’ve followed the money and identified how Joe Biden received $40,000 in laundered China money. @RepJamesComer lays out the money trail”… Chairman James Comer (R-KY) flow-charting the money trail… “Remember when Joe Biden told the American people that his son didn’t make any money in China?,” Comer asks in the video, before showing Biden’s denial during a debate with then-President Donald Trump: “My son has not made money, in terms of this thing about, what are you talking about, China.”

George Soros Foundations Spending Millions for Ohio Pro-Abortion Campaign, Millions for Anti-Semitic Terror Groups, by Tom Gilson

By Tom Gilson, The Stream – Next Tuesday Ohio will be deciding on Issue 1, a despicably pro-abortion, anti-family proposed state constitutional amendment. George Soros, the world’s richest leftist string-puller, has poured multiple millions from outside the state into swaying the vote. It’s another case of Soros wanting people everywhere doing things his way… He and his foundations have contributed more than $12 million of the $40 million raised to push this despicable amendment on the state. If that doesn’t bother you as much as it does me as an Ohio resident, this might: The same Soros funding groups have donated even more heavily to anti-Israel, pro-Hamas groups.

Automatic Voter Registration Opens Door to Voter Fraud, by Ken Blackwell

By Ken Blackwell, The Stream – The Governor of Pennsylvania has decided to unilaterally implement a system of automatic voter registration that history has proven is filled with many documented problems. Without discussion, debate, an executive order, or the state legislature’s approval, Pennsylvanians will now be affected by a questionable way of preparing citizens to vote.

Socialists Sow the Seeds of Their Own Destruction, by Angelo Stagnaro

By Angelo Stagnaro, EWTN News – “Well, true communism has never been truly implemented,” they will say, pretending they know the true secret to successful communism. Putting aside the inherent and obvious logical fallacy known as the “No True Scotsman” fallacy, there is zero stitch of evidence that communism has ever succeeded anywhere, at any time. … One wonders why atheists so doggedly resist the truth of that hot Marxist mess… But presuming that all communist agitators are as smart and knowledgeable as they claim to be, why hasn’t communism ever worked?

American Troops Go Unpaid While The Pentagon Bankrolls Abortions And Ukraine’s Forever War, by Shawn Fleetwood

By Shawn Fleetwood, The Federalist – Despite honorably serving their country, these soldiers’ financial plights are at the bottom of the Biden Pentagon’s to-do list. A day before Military.com dropped its bombshell report, the Defense Department announced it was shipping another multi-million-dollar aid package to Ukraine. Totaling $150 million… While Congress and the Biden administration committed more than $113 billion in U.S. taxpayer dollars to Ukraine in 2022 alone, that hasn’t stopped the White House from bullying Congress into authorizing even more aid for the Eastern European nation.

Speaker Mike Johnson Makes Liberals Angry Because He’s a Married Pro-Life Christian, by Suzanne Bowdey

By Suzanne Bowdey, LifeNews – Of the 469 members of Congress who call themselves Christians, the country has decided to pick on one: Mike Johnson. Apparently, it’s not a crime to say you’re a person of faith — it’s a crime to act like one. Unfortunately, that irony is being driven home with ruthless clarity in a nation where a majority of the population (63%) not only identifies with the new speaker’s faith but continues to elect leaders (87% of the House and Senate) just like him.

Speaker Mike Johnson Holding the Line Against Shipping Dangerous Abortion Pills Nationwide, by Joshua Mercer

By Joshua Mercer, LifeNews – In a first “test” of his leadership as Speaker of the House, Rep. Mike Johnson, R-LA, is facing pressure to back down on his strong pro-life stance against a radical measure that would allow abortion-causing drugs to be shipped nationwide… “A majority of the House Republican conference backs a provision in the food and agriculture funding bill that would ban mail delivery of abortion pills nationwide, with some hard-liners even pledging to oppose any version without it”… “..But a handful of Republican centrists who face tough reelection bids next year say federal curbs on mifepristone, a widely used abortion pill, are ‘a non-starter.’”

IRS Ends ‘Most’ Home Visits Under Congressional Pressure, by Michael Swartz

By Michael Swartz, Patriot Post – While Ohio Congressman Jim Jordan’s run at the House speakership was unsuccessful, his work in chairing the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government has been decidedly more productive — at least in the instance of getting the IRS to curtail its practice of unannounced visits to taxpayers’ homes.

By Nick Gilbertson, Breitbart – A number of key strategists and advisers involved in Gov.-elect Jeff Landry’s (R-LA) stunning primary victory that won him the governorship outright told Breitbart News the success was fueled by a number of factors headlined by Landry’s strength as a candidate and a very effective voter targeting operation… Landry, the current attorney general of Louisiana who was a Trump-endorsed candidate, took over 50 percent of support in what is referred to as a “Jungle Primary” wherein a candidate wins elected office outright if they garner over 50 percent of the vote in the primary, avoiding a runoff.

COMMENTARY: Leftists Try, and Fail, to Smear Speaker Johnson as ‘Christian Nationalist’, by Gillian Richards

By Gillian Richards, Daily Signal – in the left-wing media’s lexicon, Christian nationalism doesn’t refer to the handful of people who would like to repeal the First Amendment. It refers to people—usually evangelical Christians like Johnson—who think bad secularist court decisions have drastically curtailed the Framers’ vision of the free exercise of religion over the last several decades… But you wouldn’t know that from the hysterical leftist headlines.

Axios Attempts To Rebrand Abortion As ‘Reproductive Freedom’, by Tierin-Rose Mandelburg

By Tierin-Rose Mandelburg, MRC TV – Axios is at it again with its pro-abortion rhetoric… According to Axios, the pro-abortion movement is attempting to rebrand abortion-related vocabulary in a way that paints pro-lifers as controlling tyrants, with pro-choicers as superior side. The outlet claims the decades-old terms of “pro-life” and “pro-choice” just aren’t “nuanced enough to describe policy positions after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade last year.”

Catholic Against Anti-Semitism, by Mary Eberstadt

By Mary Eberstadt, First Things – There’s an observation by Pope Paul VI that’s been quoted many times, including by Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI. It is this: “Contemporary man listens more willingly to witnesses than to teachers, or if he listens to teachers, he does so because they are witnesses.” So I’m also going to stand and deliver as a witness. Following are three stories about anti-Semitism from different moments in my own life. Like all stories, their details are particular. But their lessons are universal, applying to us all.

Democrats, Leftists Rely on Disgraced Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) Group to Smear Speaker Mike Johnson, by Peter LaBarbera

By Peter LaBarbera, World Net Daily – Democrats, leftists and media opposed to new House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., are using the notorious, far-left group Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) and its discredited “hate” designation to tar Johnson as being affiliated with a supposed “hate group,” which is actually a leading Christian conservative legal organization… Johnson worked for the Christian legal defense group Alliance Defending Freedom, formerly the Alliance Defense Fund, which the SPLC has smeared as a “hate group” – mainly for ADF’s longstanding opposition to homosexuality and the transgender agenda as being sinful. …

A Different Kind of House Speaker, by Douglas Andrews

By Douglas Andrews, Patriot Post – Having been sworn it to his new role immediately after his acceptance speech, Johnson now succeeds Kevin McCarthy, who was ousted on October 3 by eight Republicans in coalition with the entire Democrat caucus… And that oh-so-clever Democrat conference should’ve been more careful about what they wished for. Because the relatively brief drug-like rush they got at their Republican colleagues’ expense ended yesterday with the election of a younger, smarter, smoother, more constitutionally conservative Republican speaker.

Mike Johnson Is the New House Speaker – But, Who Is He? by Craig Bannister

By Craig Bannister, MRC TV – Heritage Action gives Rep. Johnson a 90% lifetime score for his conservatism… In an address on the House floor following his election, Speaker Johnson touched upon critical, conservative concerns, such as illegal immigration and the national debt – and even dared to give credit to God: “I don’t believe there are any coincidences in a matter like this. I believe that Scripture, the Bible, is very clear that God is the one that raises up those in authority – he raised up each of you, all of us.

The Religion of Global Climate Change, by Michael Pakaluk

By Michael Pakaluk, The Catholic Thing – My worry about Laudate Deum (“all you praise God”), the recent Apostolic Exhortation “to all people of good will on the climate crisis,” is that because it is represents an incursion into the domain of the laity, it implicitly converts a matter of prudence, which always involves an awareness of trade-offs, into a matter of faith… I take my doctrine on the laity from Vatican II.  In Lumen gentium, bishops are accorded the role of defining doctrine in faith and morals.  Their specific competence in this task “extends as far as the deposit of Revelation extends.” (n. 25)  The laity in contrast are tasked with applying these principles to the world ….

Developing…. Louisiana’s Rep. Mike Johnson Wins Republican Speaker Nomination

By Bradley Jaye, Breitbart – Rep. Mike Johnson (R-LA) is the latest Republican Speaker nominee, winning only hours after Rep. Mike Emmer (R-MN) won the nomination and later withdrew in the face of deepening opposition… “My theme is simply trust and teamwork,” Johnson said Monday of his pitch to his colleagues. “We have to get back on track.”.. That message resonated with the conference as the reliable conservative earned support across the ideological spectrum. …

“Go Woke, Go Broke”? Disney CEO Reportedly ‘Exhausted’ By Customer Decline & Box Office Bombs, by Brittany M. Hughes

By Brittany M. Hughes, MRCTV – The House of Mouse is flooding. Just, it seems, not with cash… Disney CEO Bob Iger, who recently returned to the job to help save the floundering entertainment giant from falling profits, is feeling “exhausted and overwhelmed” by the company’s continued box office bombs and the fact that fewer and fewer people (visiting) his overpriced theme park… Disney has reportedly lost some $900 million in film failures this year alone… Disney’s woes at the theater are coupled with an ever-dropping number of Disney+ subscribers, which fell another 4 million in the first quarter of 2023 alone. …

Pope Francis Set to Attend UN ‘Climate Change’ Conference in Dubai: Reports, by Michael Haynes

By Michael Haynes, LifeSiteNews – The Pope has gone so far as to sign the Vatican up to the principles of the Agreement in 2022… Should he in fact attend the COP28 event as reports suggest, it would indeed be the first such occasion that a Pope has done so… The Pope’s previous environmental text, Laudato Si’, led to the birth of a global movement which links “climate change” activism to the Pope’s words. The Laudato Si’ Movement issues calls to divest from fossil fuels, and aims to “turn Pope Francis’ encyclical letter Laudato Si’ into action for climate and ecological justice.”

Ohio Governor Mike DeWine: Issue 1 is So Radical Babies Can be Aborted Up to Birth, by Steven Ertelt

By Steven Ertelt, LifeNews – Issue 1 in Ohio is at the heart of this divisive debate. It proposes to allow abortions throughout pregnancy, including late-term abortions, and has been described as one of the most radical abortion laws in the country… Should Issue 1 pass, Ohio will become the most radical abortion regime in the country, allowing for late-term abortion through all nine months of pregnancy, including when science confirms an unborn child is capable of feeling pain.

ESG’s Reign of Tyranny Wanes, as More People Learn What It Is and Investors Return to Prioritizing Profit, by Craig Bannister

By Craig Bannister, CNSNews – The era of leftist investment managers imposing their ideological and political will, at the expense of their clients’ retirement accounts, appears to be drawing to a close, as more Americans begin to learn what the ESG (environmental, social, governance) movement actually entails… (there are) 22% who are familiar with the term is up from the mere 15% who were aware of ESG last year… While that means that that four of five Americans are still in the dark about the dangers of ESG driving investment decisions, the increasing awareness may be prompting investors to back off from putting politics over profits.

Congress to Investigate Catholic Charities? by Nicholas Wylie

By Nicholas Wylie, Church Militant – Rep. Lance Gooden, R-Texas, is demanding transparency from Catholic Charities USA as it continues to rake in taxpayer dollars to facilitate illegal immigration… Michael Voris interviewed Rep. Gooden about the billions of dollars Catholic Charities has received from the federal government to further the migration crisis at the southern border… Rep. Lance Gooden proclaimed, “American people from both sides of the aisle — if they really knew what was going on with this funding of this migrant crisis with our taxpayer dollars in the name of ‘the Lord’s work’ — the American people would be outraged.”

Americans’ Assessment of the Media ‘the Grimmest in Gallup’s History’, by Craig Bannister

By John Zmirak, The Stream – “If they came for me, they’re coming for you.”… The Last Red Pill You Might Ever Be Offered … Well now I have the tool you need to offer those people a lifeline. There’s no guarantee it will rescue them, of course.

Illegal Immigration and the Catholic Church: Follow the Money, by John Cassara

By John Cassara, Crisis Magazine – Is the Church enabling criminality and facilitating the oppression of the immigrants we are hoping to help?… Over the last two-and-a-half years, over 7 million illegal immigrants have entered the United States. That number does not include those who escaped detection and are not in any official counts. By the end of 2024, it is projected that well over ten percent of the population will be here illegally… I often found it helpful in my past work in federal law enforcement and the intelligence community to focus on two factors when examining criminal and strategic issues: (1) Cui bono? (Who stands to benefit?); and (2) Money.

Was America Built on Stolen Land by Genocidal Racists? Er, Maybe Not … by John Zmirak

By John Zmirak, The Stream – Are you unlucky enough to know any liberal Christians, of the kind so eager to pass for elite, Mainline post-Protestants that they smear their already pasty skin with White Guilt™ Sunscreen (SPF 15,000)? If so, then you’re probably hearing about “de-colonization.” It showed up in the Black Lives Matter posts supporting Hamas, for instance. The term was used all over the place by people eager to ruin Columbus Day.

The Death of Peace in Israel, by Frank Wright

By Frank Wright, LifeSiteNews – The destruction of human life for political ends is a crime. We in the West know well the program of violent jihad. Calls to crush an entire people in response, however, are never permitted outside of Israel. Now they are celebrated… The situation in Israel is the polarization of a crisis between two factions. Both seek to widen their war by mobilizing their allies.

Biden’s $6 Billion Iran Blunder, by Emmy Griffin

By Emmy Griffin, Patriot Post – Stroke victim and Pennsylvania Democrat Senator John Fetterman put it perfectly when he said in a recent interview, “You all should need to know that America is not sending their best and brightest to Washington, DC.” Fetterman’s hilarious lack of self-awareness aside, when describing President Joe Biden and his foreign policy decisions, this statement takes on a heavy meaning.

By Philip Primeau, Crisis Magazine – The State of Israel is now locked in a terrible struggle with Hamas. The rapidly unfolding war will prove brutal and bloody.

“Erga Migrantes Caritas Christi”: On the Church’s Social Doctrine and Immigration, by Eduardo Echeverria 

By Eduardo Echeverria, Catholic World Report – A distinction should be made in reflecting on a culture of welcome between “assistance in a general sense (a first, short-term welcome), true welcome in the full sense (longer-term projects) and integration… In this connection, we must consider the legitimate requirements stemming from the responsibilities of civil authorities to preserve order, protect citizens, and punish wrongdoers… and hence of “order, legality and [national] security” in our understanding of welcoming the migrants.

By Bob Unruh, WND – On social media, Franklin Graham cited a video of Hamas’ Mahmoud al-Zahar, and wrote, “We just saw Hamas brutally murder 900+ Israelis, most all civilians. If you want to know what else they’re after, a Hamas commander made it clear. He said they want to kill every Jew and every Christian – and take control of the ‘entire 510 million sq. kilometers of Planet Earth.’ If you think what is happening in Israel is limited to Israel, think again.”

Lessons of Natural Law in Gaza, by Michael Pakaluk

By Michael Pakaluk, The Catholic Thing – I think about Shani Louk and pray for her, the 22-year-old German-Israeli tattoo artist and globe-trotting pacifist, who was kidnapped by Hamas from the Tribe of Nova rave festival in the Negev Desert.

The Hamas Massacre Is A Wake-Up Call For America To Fortify Itself Against Evil, by Kyle Shideler

By Kyle Shideler, The Federalist – We can no more count on Biden to defend our border than to assist Israel. That means states and local communities must take their fates into their own hands… “Such is the nature of Evil. Out there in the vast ignorance of the world it festers and spreads. A Shadow that grows in the dark. A sleepless malice as black as the oncoming wall of night. So it ever was, so it always will be.”

By Steven Mosher, LifeSiteNews – In his new apostolic exhortation, Laudate Deum, Pope Francis warns us that the end is near, both for “our suffering planet” and, by extension, for us. “[T]he world in which we live is collapsing and may be nearing the breaking point.

America Must Stay Out of Other Nations’ Ethnic Conflicts, by Darrick Taylor

By Darrick Taylor, Crisis Magazine – Here we go again. Last week, the Palestinian terrorist organization Hamas, likely provoked into action by its Iranian backers, launched an attack on the state of Israel, killing (at the time of writing) around 900 civilians and capturing Israeli soldiers, parading some of them on the internet, including women soldiers. Watching these videos is a revolting experience… The State of Israel is already retaliating with attacks on the Gaza strip, but, predictably, neo-cons and liberal imperialists are already sounding the charge for yet another foreign intervention overseas.

Enemy of Palestinians Is Hamas, Not Israel, by Star Parker

By Star Parker, Patriot Post – Israel withdrew from Gaza in 2005 and turned it over to the Palestinian Authority. Within two years, with local elections, Hamas was in charge… Israelis fight in order to survive. Hamas fights because they want to kill… For the sake of Israel, for the sake of the Palestinian people, for the sake of the world, we must pray that this time is the last time that Israeli and Palestinian lives are lost because of this evil regime… The status quo is no longer an option. Hamas must be removed for good, once and for all.

Pope Francis Blames America First, by Stephen Moore

By Stephen Moore, Patriot Post – When I was growing up and attending Catholic schools, I was taught that the pope is infallible… But then I read Pope Francis’ updated encyclical letter last week, and now I can only conclude that at least this pope is fallible. In fact, the declaration is so filled with anti-Christian fallacies that one has to wonder whether we have a pope that is actually Catholic… The pope has given a new voice to the “blame America first” globalists and denounces Americans’ “irresponsible lifestyles” for the ruination of the planet.

Americans Can’t Trust The D.C. Establishment To Identify True Chaos — Only To Create It, Mollie Ziegler Hemingway

By Mollie Ziegler Hemingway, The Federalist – Biden has championed Iran, sent it money, given money to Palestinians, undermined Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu, and aided Iran in numerous ways. The administration’s goal of blowing up the Abraham Accords, the Trump-negotiated peace agreements to strengthen Israel and its non-Iranian neighbors, may have succeeded with this weekend’s horrific attack on Israeli civilians… Americans cannot trust the permanent D.C. political and media classes to identify true crises, only to create them with their made-up reporting and hysteria.

Reflections on Israel’s New Existential War, by Victor Davis Hanson

By Victor Davis Hanson, American Greatness – So again why did Hamas mount such a long-planned and multifaceted assault on Israeli towns, public buildings, soldiers, and civilians?… The invasion was not so much a surprise attack, in the conventional Pearl Harbor sense, as a carefully calibrated land, sea, and ground effort at mass killing and hostage taking. It was designed to execute noncombatants, grab Jews for bargaining leverage, and to shock Israelis through their pre-civilizational desecration of the bodies of the dead.

Thousands March in Ohio Against Issue 1, Which Allows Abortions Up to Birth, by Mary Margaret Olohan

By Mary Margaret Olohan, LifeNews – Ohio Issue 1, the Right to Make Reproductive Decisions Including Abortion Initiative, would ban the state from interfering with “reproductive decisions,” including abortion—effectively enshrining the “right” to abortion into Ohio’s constitution… The proposed constitutional amendment is pushed by groups like the ACLU of Ohio and Ohioans United for Reproductive Rights (neither of which responded to requests for comment from The Daily Signal).

RCI: The Climate Dissent You’re Not Hearing, by John Murawski

By John Murawski, Real Clear Investigations – The climate dissenters are pressing their case as Pres. Biden, UN officials, and climate action advocates in media and academia argue that the “settled science” demands a wholesale societal transformation. That means halving U.S. carbon emissions by 2035 and achieving net zero emissions by 2050 to stave off the “existential threat” of human-induced climate change… In response last month, more than 1,600 scientists, among them two Nobel physics laureates, Clauser and Ivar Giaever of Norway, signed a declaration stating that there is no climate emergency, and that climate advocacy has devolved into mass hysteria.

California, the Great Destroyer, by Victor Davis Hanson

By Victor Davis Hanson, American Greatness – In 1996, the California legislature created the high speed rail authority… In 2008, voters passed a $33 billion bond to build an envisioned 800 mile project eventually to link Sacramento with San Diego… Fifteen years later, a scaled-down plan from Bakersfield to Merced remains not even half finished.

Democrats Have Become The Party Of Authoritarianism. They Only Understand Power, by John Daniel Davidson

By John Daniel Davidson, Crisis Magazine – Despite the outdated moniker of “social justice warrior,” leftist Democrats aren’t interested in real justice.

Trump spoke to this issue on Meet The Press, where he called Ron DeSantis’ signing of a “heartbeat bill” in Florida “a terrible thing and a terrible mistake.”… Abortion is either a basic human right, or the murder of a child.

No, the Persecution Is Not Coming—It Is Already Here, by Sarah Cain

By Sarah Cain, Catholic World Report – The persecution of Christians and especially Catholics tends to target individuals (and families) over groups, which makes it easier to miss.

Cowardly Abortion Lingo, by Emmy Griffin

By Emmy Griffin, Patriot Post – The terms in question are “pro-life” and “pro-choice.” According to some poll results that were presented to the GOP senators, Americans see the term “pro-life” as shorthand for banning all abortion and “pro-choice” as having exceptions. Even Senator Josh Hawley admitted after viewing these polls: “Many voters think [‘pro-life’] means you’re for no exceptions in favor of abortion ever, ever, and ‘pro-choice’ now can mean any number of things. So the conversation was mostly oriented around how voters think of those labels, that they’ve shifted…”

The WEF and the Climate Cult: Colluding for a World-Wide Welfare State, by Thaddeus G. McCotter

By Thaddeus G. McCotter, American Greatness – For the first time in human history, the goal is not to increase material prosperity but to cap and curtail it. By making diminished expectations a virtue, the WEF hopes to coercively redistribute other people’s wealth to manage mass expectations, prevent governmental confiscations and preclude revolutions. In sum, the WEF goal is not creation of prosperity, but the management of scarcity. In this, they have found a willing partner in the apocalyptic climate cult, which is more than happy to scare and coerce people into latching onto their mutual, radical, socialist agenda.

Why Is the West in Such a Mess? by Richard Bastien

By Richard Bastien, Crisis Magazine – Abandonment of God is what gave rise to this burst of madness. Only by returning to God will we recover our sanity. The way to sanity is the way of the prodigal son in the Gospel: we must go back to the house of the Father and seek forgiveness. Western civilization was built by men of faith and prayer. We need to rediscover its roots, failing which we will attend to its prolonged agony. More specifically, we must rediscover the great medieval synthesis of faith and reason …

The Paths Forward For The GOP Presidential Field, by Josh Hammer

By Josh Hammer, The Wanderer – The first possibility for the GOP presidential field’s path forward is this perpetuation of the Aesopian status quo. Barring any major changes before January’s first-in-the-nation Iowa caucuses, it is difficult to confidently project that the tortoise will catch the hare. Trump’s core supporters are unyielding in their fervor for the beleaguered ex-president, and it is clear that the regime’s sprawling lawfare up and down the Eastern Seaboard does not dent the intensity of their loyalty.

But, you’d think common sense would eventually take over and make one ask themself the aforementioned question.

Jihad in Fargo? by William Kilpatrick

But evidence is emerging that it might have been a jihad attack… But, as it soon appeared, Barakat did have a plan for that day—a much bigger plan than murdering one police officer… Barakat’s car contained a small arsenal of weapons: three rapid-fire long guns; four handguns; 1,800 rounds of ammunition; three containers of gasoline; two propane tanks (one filled with explosives); and a hand grenade.

The chaos and chicanery documented in 2000 Mules from Wisconsin to Georgia to Arizona didn’t happen in Texas. I bet you don’t know what stopped it. Or rather, who… Ken Paxton Ran Toward the Fire, Not Away From It… Texas AG Ken Paxton stopped it. He fought a dozen lawsuits funded by George Soros and other conspirators, who sought to throw Texas open to the same corrupt practices that stole the White House and the Senate. And he prevailed. He led the effort among states willing to challenge the 2020 election results.

Pope Francis Praises Genghis Khan, by Daniel Greenfield

By Daniel Greenfield, Front Page Magazine – The Mongol invasions nearly conquered Europe and while they postdate Genghis Khan and were carried out by his descendants, it still seems like an odd choice to praise Genghis… Under the towering statue of 13th-century warrior Genghis Khan, Pope Francis was not greeted by hordes of people in Mongolia’s capital Ulaanbaatar on Saturday.

Yes, Washington Is A Gerontocracy. No, We Don’t Need Age Limits. Here Is A Better Plan, by David Harsanyi

By David Harsanyi, The Federalist – For the second time in recent months, Mitch McConnell froze in the middle of a press conference, staring off in silence before being saved by an aide. The episode was widely covered by the establishment media — and, fairly so, considering his position and power… It would be nice, and ethical, if the same level of scrutiny was applied to our cognitively compromised president, who regularly wanders off to shake hands with invisible leprechauns, struggles to navigate stairs, and forgets the name of his cabinet members. …

Blue States are Prohibiting Christians From Adopting Because of Their Christian Views, by Johannes Widmalm-Delphonse

By Johannes Widmalm-Delphonse, LifeNews – In the United States, approximately 391,000 children are in foster care. Of those, over 113,000 children are waiting to be adopted. With such a great need, you would think that all 50 states would be eager to place children with loving and qualified parents. But this isn’t so… The problem? Some state officials are imposing an ideological litmus test to determine who is “qualified” to parent a child. In some states, if you don’t agree to adopt the government’s views on gender and sexuality, your application to adopt a child will be denied.

‘We Will Not Comply’: Trump Sounds Alarm on COVID ‘Tyrants’ Ahead of 2024 Election, by Doug Mainwaring

By Doug Mainwaring, LifeSiteNews – Donald Trump has made bold statements against political opponents he calls “left-wing lunatics” and issued a challege to “every COVID tyrant who wants to take away our freedom.”… “We will not comply,” he declared… “These are bad people,” the former president said of the Biden administration in a video released Wednesday. “These are sick people we’re dealing with.”… “But to every COVID tyrant who wants to take away our freedom, hear these words,” he continued. “We will not comply, so don’t even think about it.”

Emergency Petition Filed to Get Pro-Life Advocate Out of Prison Who Was Convicted of Rescuing Babies From Abortion, by Steven Ertelt

By Steven Ertelt, LifeNews – A leading pro-life legal group has filed an emergency petition to get a pro-life advocate out of prison who was convicted yesterday of rescuing babies from abortion… As LifeNews reported, five pro-life advocates have been found guilty of violating a federal law protecting abortion centers and now face the possibility of 11 years in prison.

WATCH! ‘We Will Not Comply,’ Trump Says of COVID-19 Lockdowns, Mandates

By Daily Signal Staff – The left-wing lunatics are trying very hard to bring back COVID lockdowns and mandates with all of their sudden fearmongering about the new variants that are coming… They want to restart the COVID hysteria so they can justify more lockdowns, more censorship, more illegal drop boxes, more mail-in ballots and trillions of dollars in payoffs to their political allies heading into the 2024 election. Does that sound familiar? These are bad people. These are sick people we’re dealing with. …

Trying to Derail the Federal Immigration Gravy Train, by Joseph Hippolito

By Joseph Hippolito, Front Page Magazine – With no projected end to the chaos of illegal immigration, some Congressional Republicans have decided to confront the religious agencies aggravating the problem at the Mexican border — including Catholic Charities, which plays a pivotal role in that chaos… Even conservative Catholics organized to oppose their church’s support of open borders. The Deposit of Faith Coalition held a press conference July 20 in Washington, D.C. to demand that Congress stop giving funds for the USCCB. The website Church Militant, one of the members, calls the coalition “a group of about a dozen Catholic or Catholic-led outfits.”

5,400 Fake-Name Biden Emails Identified, Prompting Lawsuit to Force National Archives to Make Them Public, by Craig Bannister

By Craig Bannister, MRCTV – The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) has admitted that it has nearly 5,400 emails, electronic records and documents that potentially show Pres. Joe Biden using a pseudonym during his vice presidency… On June 9, 2022, SLF filed a FOIA request seeking emails pertaining to three fake-name accounts Biden was known to use in the White House during his time as vice president in the Obama Administration: “Robin Ware,” “Robert L. Peters,” and “JRB Ware”… NARA has yet to provide a single item, prompting SLF to file a lawsuit, which Southeast Legal announced in a press release on Monday ….

Democrats Aren’t ‘Interfering’ In 2024 Election With Trump Trial, They’re Blatantly Rigging It, by John Daniel Davidson

By John Daniel Davidson, The Federalist – News broke Monday that U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan, the judge overseeing the Jan. 6-related case against Donald Trump in Washington, D.C., set a March 4, 2024, trial date for the former president… It just so happens that March 4 is the day before Super Tuesday, when more than a dozen states, from California to Texas to Virginia, will hold Republican primary elections. What a coincidence!… this isn’t merely election “interference,” it’s a naked attempt to rig the 2024 election.

America’s Dirty Little Secret: Child Rape is Big Business, by John & Nisha Whitehead

By John & Nisha Whitehead, Washington Times – The “Sound of Freedom” may have taken movie audiences by storm this summer, but the subject matter — the sordid world of child sex trafficking — has been, for all intents and purposes, out in the open for a long time… It takes a special kind of evil to prostitute and traffic a child for sex, and yet this evil walks among us every minute of every day… Consider this: every two minutes, a child is bought and sold for sex. …

The Fruits of Environmentalism and of Social Justice (Part 2), by Theodore Misiak 

By Theodore Misiak, Catholic World Report – Two aspects of Catholic teaching are particularly relevant here. The first is that economic activity is viewed from the perspective of the final destiny of the person. As the Compendium puts it, “Work represents a fundamental dimension of human existence as participation not only in the act of creation but also in that of redemption. … Understood in this way, work is an expression of man’s full humanity, in his historical condition and his eschatological orientation” (Compendium, 263).

Catholic NGO’s Continue to Cash In ( $15.5 Million), by Nicholas Wylie

By Nicholas Wylie, Church Militant – Catholic Charities continues to profit from the destabilization of America after receiving millions more dollars from the government… Four branches of Catholic Charities received a combined sum of over $15.5 million last week from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Shelter and Services Program.

Save the Rule of Law By Destroying It? by Victor Davis Hanson

By Victor Davis Hanson, American Greatness – Some truths are so staggering in their ramifications that Americans simply shrug and tune them out as if strangers in a strange land… Is their current bewilderment because modernist America is unrecognizable —a nonexistent border, downtown homeless juxtaposed to hipster professional elites, DEI racial essentialism, cities reverting to precivilizational wastelands, millions exiting blue states to red, an FBI and DOJ gone rogue ….

Catholic Charities of San Diego Just Received Another $13 Million of Your Hard-Earned Tax Dollars to Enable the Illegal Invasion of our Nation

Posted on Complicit Clergy, by FAIR by Staff – Catholic Charities of San Diego has now received nearly $30 million from our federal government in 2023 for migration-related expenditures… This week, the Department of Homeland Security announced another tranche of funding through the Shelter and Services Program (SSP) for nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), states and local governments that will assist illegal aliens at the border.

The Next Target After Trump Is … You, by John Zmirak

The John Zmirak, The Stream – What will it mean if Donald Trump gets sentenced to prison? Or if he is even declared ineligible for office, as some lawyers linked to the conservative Federalist Society are trying (for murky reasons) to prove?… Let’s try to step back and think about these things in a coolly disinterested fashion, like Mr. Spock on Star Trek. Or like some foreign historian looking back at our present history from the distance of 500 years.

Maryland Court Rules Parents Have No Say in Child’s Education, by Tierin-Rose Mandelburg

By Tierin-Rose Mandelburg, MRC TV – Earlier this month, a group of Maryland parents gathered at the state district court to fight for parental rights and protect their children from indoctrinating content in schools. On August 24, the court ruled that parents would NOT be able to opt their children out of that sort of content… This is all about control.

How to Destroy a State With the Help of the Church, by Greg Cook

By Greg Cook, Crisis Magazine – How do you destroy a state? Politicize everything and install one-party rule. Tax, tax, tax. Treat every problem from an unnaturally huge urban perspective and use one-size-fits-all solutions to everything. Keep increasing the size of government and the state work force. Keep finding ways to interfere with the rights of property owners to use their own property as they see fit. Inculcate learned helplessness in vast numbers of the state’s residents and push policies guaranteed to corrode and tear families apart. …

‘No One’ Supports Abortion Up Until Birth? In a Twisted Sense, True, by Phil Lawler

By Phil Lawler, Catholic Culture – In short the American public strongly supports restrictions on abortion—the restrictions that Psaki and her Democratic colleagues adamantly oppose… If “no one supports abortion up until birth,” why was the practice legal in all fifty states before the Dobbs decision? Why is it still legal in “blue” states today? Why are Democratic lawmakers fighting to keep it legal? And why aren’t the mainstream media asking those questions?

EDITORIAL: Evening in America, by Eric Sammons

By Eric Sammons, Crisis Magazine – The recent indictments of Donald Trump are a perfect example. It’s clear to any objective observer that this is a witch hunt to try to bring down a popular political opponent. Yet what’s revealing—and encouraging—is the reaction to it by the people. Every time Trump is indicted, his poll numbers go up. And the release of his mug shot last night nearly broke the Internet as Trump tweeted it and used it as a campaign fundraiser… Think about that for a minute. In the 1980’s, is there any chance that a mug shot would be a positive thing for a conservative candidate?

Open for Invasion: Report Says Border Patrol ‘Admitted’ to Welding 114 Border Wall Gates Open, by Nick Kangadis

By Nick Kangadis, MRC TV – The Post reported: The US Border Patrol has now admitted it’s responsible for the decision to leave giant flood gates in the border wall wide open — giving thousands of illegal immigrants an easy opportunity to stream into Arizona… After some initial finger-pointing at other federal agencies, the agency took ownership for making the call.[…]… Border Patrol agents, acting on superiors’ orders, welded some 114 gates open to stop anyone from closing them …

Sorting Out the GOP Debate, by Douglas Andrews

By Douglas Andrews, Patriot Post – “Our country is in decline,” said Florida Governor Ron DeSantis in his opening salvo of last night’s Republican Party presidential debate. But, he said, “This decline is not inevitable; it’s a choice… In years past, we’d have expected the other candidates to take issue with that kind of pessimistic broadside and rise up on behalf of the country. But not last night. It’s a sign of the times that there was plenty of agreement on this point among the participants, plenty of agreement that Joe Biden’s presidency has already been an unmitigated disaster.

The Biden Clan’s Con Is Coming to an End, by Victor Davis Hanson

By Victor Davis Hanson, American Greatness – Joe Biden can no longer work a full day. He mutters. He stumbles. He serially lies… He hijacks solemn occasions commemorating national tragedies by trying to one up the grieving with his own self-absorbed stories… If a cognitively and criminally challenged Biden cannot finish his term, we will finally learn the full story of 15 years of Biden family corruption… The Bidens will lose the only impediment—Joe Biden’s political machinations—left in the way of an honest, full-blown felony investigation into what is likely the most corrupt presidential family in American history.

Patriotism and Faith, by G.K. Chesterton

By G.K. Chesterton, The Catholic Thing – The Catholic Church loves nations as she loves men; because they are her children. But they certainly are her children, in the sense that they are secondary to her in time and process of production. This is, as it happens, a very good example of a fallacy that often confuses discussion about the convert. The same people who call the convert a pervert, and especially a traitor to patriotism, very often use the other catchword to the effect that he is forced to believe this or that.

‘Megalomaniac Ambition for Total Control’: Governments Eye New Gates-Funded Biometric Digital ID System, by Michael Nevradakis

By Michael Nevradakis, Ph.D., Children’s Health Defense – McCollough also said he’s wary of Gates’ involvement, describing MOSIP as “merely the latest Gates-funded mechanism to total population control. Digital ID, biometrics, CBDC all integrated into an “open” app (powered by a series of APIs) that offers the illusion of autonomy when it is instead the surrender of all self-determinacy to the digital masters.”… “All the laudatory press and attention is merely more word-salad platitudes designed to lull people into voluntarily succumbing to global tyranny,” he added.

IN-DEPTH: Abortion, Transgender Services, Communion, and the ‘Transition’ of Catholic Church Leadership, by Patricia Tolson

By Patricia Tolson, The Epoch Times – The most astonishing shift in the Catholic Church may have to do with abortion. Although the Church’s official stance on abortion has never changed, critics point to a new willingness by individuals high in the Church to compromise with organizations and individuals who publicly espouse or promote abortion… The most recent example is the partnering of a huge Catholic health care network with a women’s health organization that has publicly advertised its goal of providing abortion services.

‘[Biden] in Many Ways is a Manchurian Candidate’: News & Notes from the Trump/Tucker Interview, by Nick Kangadis

By Nick Kangadis, CNSNews – Trump on Biden: “I think he’s the most corrupt president we’ve ever had, and he also has the distinction of being the most incompetent. I believe both. He’s both incompetent and corrupt. I actually believe he’s compromised, because China knows so much about him. They know where the money comes from, they know where it is, who paid it, and they probably paid it…He in many ways is a Manchurian candidate.”

Joe Biden: If I’m Re-Elected, We’ll Have Abortions Up to Birth Nationwide, by Steven Ertelt

By Steven Ertelt, LifeNews – The Republican presidential candidates are slated to have their first debate tonight, but Joe Biden has a message for the American people. He wants voters to know that, if he’s re-elected, he will institute abortions up to birth nationwide… Biden wants Democrats to take over the House and pass a bill through Congress that would restore Roe v. Wade and legalize abortions up to birth without limits and at taxpayer expense across the country.

Vatican’s Newspaper Rebukes Gov. Abbott Over Immigration Measures, by Nicholas Wylie

By Nicholas Wylie, Church Militant – L’Osservatore Romano, the front-page story blasted Gov. Greg Abbott’s installation of buoys and razor wire along the border, alongside the alleged mistreatment of illegal migrants… The Stream recently reported, “Those [Catholic] agencies received a total of $3.053 billion between 2008 and 2022. During that period, Catholic Charities collected $1.86 billion, while the USCCB got $1.113 billion in direct federal grants, the fifth-largest total among all agencies. From that $1.113 billion, the USCCB gave $586 million to Catholic Charities.”

Trump: Russia Collusion Hoaxers Are ‘Savage Animals’ Who ‘Hate Our Country’, by Jordan Boyd

By Jordan Boyd, The Federalist – The people who ran the Russian collusion hoax for the last seven years are “savage animals” who “hate our country,” former President Donald Trump said in his debate-night interview with Tucker Carlson… Just a few minutes into his conversation with Trump, Carlson asked Trump if he was worried that his political opponents were “going to try and kill you.”… “They’re savage animals. They are people that are sick, really sick,” Trump replied.

Court Upholds Alabama Ban on Child Sex-Change Treatments, by Peter Pinedo

By Peter Pinedo, CNA – A federal court on Monday upheld an Alabama law banning hormonal sex-change treatments for children under 18. The court’s decision places Alabama among the 14 states to have laws banning sex-changing treatments for children in effect… The decision, which was made by a three-judge panel on the 11th Circuit, only temporarily upholds the ban. The lawsuit against Alabama’s transgender treatments law will continue and be reviewed by the full 11th Circuit Court, with a trial set for April 2, 2024.

Should the Muslim Call to Prayer be Broadcast in American Cities? by Cory Stockwell

By Cory Stockwell, First Things – In April, the Minneapolis City Council voted unanimously to remove the noise ordinance that restricted religious sounds to between 7 a.m. and 10 p.m. The measure, as reported by the Star Tribune, allows the adhan—the Muslim call to prayer—to “be broadcast from speakers atop the city’s 20 mosques at any time of the day,” making Minneapolis “the first major American city to allow all five daily calls to prayer to be amplified outdoors at any time, including the early morning hours before sunrise and late evening hours after sunset.”

Trump Is Running—With the GOP, or Against It, by Philip Primeau

By Philip Primeau, Crisis Magazine – If by some chance Donald Trump loses the GOP nomination, he’s likely to run as an independent candidate, thus throwing the whole election into even further chaos… Donald J. Trump is running for president. He is running for president whether or not he wins the GOP primary. This is the fundamental truth of 2024. All else is noise… Trump is running for president. He will run with the GOP or against it. The sooner Republicans admit this fact, the sooner they can make the ultimate decision: to risk defeat with Trump, or to accept defeat without him.

Secular Media Stepping Up to Expose the Corrupt Bishops, by Nicholas Wylie

By Nicholas Wylie, Church Militant – A new “summer of shame” continues to pile on for corrupt Catholic organizations like the USCCB and Catholic Charities USA… Secular media organizations are again exposing the U.S. bishops and their (NGO’S) for advancing both anti-Catholic and anti-America agendas… Recently, The Stream detailed the bishops’ immigration money grab, while The Epoch Times took a more wide-ranging look at several inconsistencies in the actions of the U.S. hierarchy.

Positivism and Globalism, by Joseph Pearce

By Joseph Pearce, The Imaginative Conservative – The Nazi Empire fell. The Soviet Empire fell. And now a new globalist empire is in the ascendant. It will also have its day, its pride preceding its own fall, but who knows how much damage will be done before it comes crashing down?.. In my recent essay for the Imaginative Conservative, “Bad Ideas Have Bad Consequences”, I focused on the destructive ramifications of various philosophical perspectives which emerged during the so-called “Enlightenment”. …

Critics, Enemies, and the Difference, by Francis X. Maier

By Francis X. Maier, First Things – Critics, real and perceived, are not always enemies. Some are wrongfully provoked. Fidelity is not automatic agreement. Obedience is not unthinking submission. And being a “stone in the shoe,” as the Holy Father regrettably describes himself, is not always a virtue. It can also, sometimes, be the opposite.

Non Catholic Writes: In Chicago, Another Sign of the Catholic Church’s Decline, by Andrea Widburg

By Andrea Widburg, American Thinker – I’m not a Catholic, but I have an abiding respect for Catholicism’s role in bringing down the paganism that dominated Europe before the Church took over. At least one Catholic cardinal, though, seems to have forgotten that time. How else can we explain Cardinal Blase Cupich’s decision to participate in a Wiccan-organized conference to “enrich” his faith?

Louisiana Court Rules Abortion Ban Can Keep Saving Babies From Abortions, by Steven Ertelt 

By Steven Ertelt, LifeNews – A Louisiana court has reversed an injunction a judge put in place that temporarily blocked the state’s abortion ban. The court had already lifted the injunction temporarily so the ban could save babies from abortions but today’s ruling permanently lifts it so the pro-life law can continue protecting women and children from abortion.

Editorial: The Federal Bureau of Intimidation?

By The Editors, EWTN News Editorial – After news leaked out earlier this year about the existence of an internal FBI memo targeting “radical-traditionalist Catholics” as potential domestic terrorists, FBI Director Christopher Wray hastily assured Congress it was merely a highly regrettable blunder initiated by only a single overzealous FBI field office in Richmond, Virginia. Indeed, as recently as last month, he reaffirmed this talking point… But we now know that Director Wray’s assurances weren’t accurate.

Biden’s Misguided Priorities: Ukraine, Illegal Aliens vs. Hawaii, by Armstrong Williams

By Armstrong Williams, The Daily Signal – Hawaii, once a symbol of nature’s grace, now lies devastated, a chilling semblance of a war zone… At least 100 lives have been lost to the flames of a devastating wildfire, with hundreds of homes obliterated and families shattered… But in the face of this profound tragedy, President Joe Biden has responded with a suggestion that borders on the absurd. If you thought his disregard for the American people had reached its lowest point, think again.

Homelessness in Joe Biden’s America, by Nate Jackson

By Nate Jackson, Patriot Post – It’s just that most Americans know Bidenomics stinks and he’s full of [insert scatalogical reference]… Our evidence? Well, for this analysis, it’s that drastic increase in homelessness. Just this year, estimates are that the number of homeless has increased 11% over last year. That “sharp jump,” says the Wall Street Journal’s news division, “would represent by far the biggest recorded increase since the government started tracking comparable numbers in 2007.” It’s not even close, given that the next highest increase was 2.7%.

If Pro-Lifers Don’t Get Back On Offense, They’ll Lose All Their Dobbs Momentum, by Harry Scherer

By Harry Scherer, The Federalist – Though the results of last week’s ballot measure in Ohio are being billed as a loss for the pro-life movement, they also present opportunities the movement should be enthusiastic to embrace… Patrick T. Brown, a fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center, drove this point home with a tweet that got some attention: “The Ohio result tonight … needs to be a five-alarm fire for the pro-life movement.”

The Purpose Of The Trump Indictments Is To Demonstrate The Left’s Power, by John Daniel Davidson

By John Daniel Davidson, The Federalist – The latest indictment of former President Donald Trump is even more outlandish than Jack Smith’s blatant attempt to criminalize free speech. The indictment Monday out of Fulton County, Georgia, criminalizes mundane activities like asking for a phone number, texting, encouraging people to watch a televised hearing, and reserving a room at the Georgia capitol.

U.S. Power Sector Expresses Anxiety Over Biden Carbon Plan, by Evan Poellinger

By Evan Poellinger, MRCTV – Members of the U.S. power sector, notably members of the Edison Electric Institute (EEI) utility trade group, have called the Biden administration’s carbon regulation plan untenable and demanded alterations… Under the current regulatory framework, the Biden administration intends for the power sector in the United States to achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2035, and to cut greenhouse gas emissions in half by 2030.

Back to (What Kind of) School: Education or Indoctrination? by Cal Thomas

By Cal Thomas, The Daily Signal – At the recent convention of the National Education Association in Orlando, Florida, reports told of delegates waving rainbow signs proclaiming: “freedom to teach” and “freedom to learn.” The demonstrators oppose parental concerns over what they regard as pornography in certain books, an opposition that has tarred them as “book banners.”

Atlanta’s Attack on the Constitution, by Gary Bauer

By Gary Bauer, Patriot Post – I’m almost out of words to explain this latest attempt by allies of the current figurehead president, Joe Biden, to take out his most likely opponent next November. Maybe no explanation is needed. Trump is not the real or even primary target… The purpose of this unprecedented rain of prosecutions is to intimidate into silence or inaction any future populist conservative who would try to stop the transforming of Americans into sheep who only exist to serve a globalist vision of the future.

The Democrats are Certain They Will Never be Held Accountable for the Trump Indictments and Biden Cover-Up, by Steve McCann

By Steve McCann, American Thinker – Never in the 235 years since the ratification of the Constitution has an administration premeditatively and blatantly prosecuted, on specious and conjecturable charges, the titular leader of the opposition party and leading candidate for president.  And doing so while overtly flaunting their egregious actions to protect and cover-up for the incumbent president who has been exposed as potentially complicit in massive bribery and fraud. 

A Pandemic Post-Mortem, by Richard Gunderman

By Richard Gunderman, MD, PhD, Law & Liberty – Takedowns are not the modus operandi of science, academia, or even sound public policy. Takedowns are the technique of autocrats, or at least those who exhibit autocratic tendencies. To prevent leaders from seizing on public health challenges as opportunities to consolidate and augment their power, it is vital that Americans insist on accountability. We should never simply accept without question the presumptions that an emerging pandemic calls for extraordinary countermeasures, that government officials seek truth before all else, or that naysayers can be dismissed as “fringe” elements. The best disinfectants are not masks or vaccines, but truth and the civil liberties essential to its pursuit.

When The Justice System Falls Apart, So Does The Republic, by Elle Purnell

By Elle Purnell, The Federalist – Democrats’ crusade to weaponize the criminal justice system to put their chief political opponent in jail escalated… with the release of an indictment pursued by Georgia’s Fulton County DA Fani Willis against former Pres. Donald Trump. The indictment, targeting not just Trump but 18 of his lawyers and advisers, is a clear message that if you’re a Republican, challenging election results… is now a criminal offense.

Donald Trump: “Democrats are the Radicals Because They’re Willing to Kill Babies” Up to Birth, by Steven Ertelt 

By Steven Ertelt, LifeNews – Former Pres. Donald Trump says Americans need to remember that Democrats are the radical on abortion because they support killing babies in abortions up to birth… Trump made two major points about the state of abortion in America. First, Trump says pro-life Republicans need to be willing to compromise — allowing exceptions in cases of life of the mother, rape and incest — which some state abortion bans already have — in exchange for protecting the other 96% of babies from abortions who are killed in abortions merely done for birth control.

RFK Jr Discusses ‘Proxy’ War Against Russia, Biolabs, and JFK Assassination With Tucker Carlson

By Patrick Delaney, LifeSiteNews – …Democratic presidential primary candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. provided extensive critiques of the neoconservative “proxy” war against Russia along with the U.S. bioweapons development program… Kennedy provided a thorough history of the war in Ukraine, charging that the public has been “lied to from the beginning” being presented with a “comic book depiction which we see in every war.

Cong. Steube Files Articles of Impeachment Against Biden, by Douglas Andrews

By Douglas Andrews, The Patriot Post – Greg Steube (Florida Republican congressman and House Freedom Caucus member).. has filed four articles of impeachment (against Joe Biden)… Someone had to, and Steube — a retired Army Airborne infantry and JAG corps officer, and an Iraq War vet — seems as good a man as any for the job… “Bribery. Extortion. Obstruction of justice. Fraud. Financial involvement in drugs and prostitution. It’s LONG PAST TIME to impeach Joe Biden. Joe Biden shouldn’t be allowed to continue to sit in the White House, selling out our country. Today I filed articles of impeachment.”

Trump, His Lawyers, Others Indicted by Grand Jury in Fulton County Over President’s Questioning of 2020 Election Case, by Al Perrotta

By Al Perrotta, The Stream – As long expected, a Grand Jury under the control of Fulton County D.A. Fani Willis has indicted former Pres. Donald Trump and 18 others over Trump’s questioning of the 2020 election results in Georgia.

Did the Democrats Destroy J6 Evidence? by Douglas Andrew

By Douglas Andrew, Patriot Post – Republican oversight into the one-sided J6 investigation indicates that committee Democrats have failed to preserve and turn over key materials… We knew all along that the Democrats’ “Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the U.S. Capitol” was a rigged deal. We just didn’t know how rigged.

Fight Child Trafficking by Fostering, by Kimberly Henkel

By Kimberly Henkel, EWTN News – As The Sound of Freedom reveals, human trafficking is a serious evil that must be stopped. It can all feel so overwhelming, but everyone can do something. We can fight child trafficking through spreading awareness, praying for these vulnerable children, fostering a child ourselves, or by supporting foster families. These are practical ways we can help as individuals, families and parishes. …

Renowned Climate Scientist Blasts ‘Anti-Capitalist’ Climate Agenda, ‘Manufactured’ Consensus, by Andreas Wailzer

By Andreas Wailzer, LifeSiteNews – A renowned climatologist has said that the alleged scientific consensus on “climate change” is a “manufactured consensus” perpetuated by the United Nations (U.N.)… In an interview with libertarian journalist and pundit John Stossel, climatologist Judith Curry said that the “manufactured consensus” existed because a scientist would achieve “fame and fortune” for exaggerating the risks associated with “climate change.”

RNC: Bidenflation Is on the Rise … Again!

By Political Editors, Patriot Post – Bidenomics has delivered nothing but higher prices and stifling interest rates… Hardworking Americans are struggling to stay afloat… The latest Consumer Price Index shows year-over-year inflation ticked up last month and remains more than twice the rate when Biden took office… Prices have risen by 16.9 percent since Biden took office – and Americans are still reeling.

Bombshell New FBI Memo Shows Agency Used Multiple Offices to Spy on Traditional Catholics, by Stephen Kokx

By Stephen Kokx, LifeSiteNews – New documents obtained by Rep. Jim Jordan show that an undercover FBI employee reported on a subject who attended an ‘SSPX-affiliated’ church in California. The documents also show that FBI offices in Los Angeles and Portland were involved in the creation of the FBI’s memo that described Traditional Catholics as potential domestic terrorists… The finding stands in contrast to Wray’s previous testimony that an FBI memo describing Traditional Catholics as potential domestic terrorists was only utilized at the one location in Richmond.

The Biden Presidency Is Unsustainable, by Victor Davis Hanson

By Victor Davis Hanson, American Greatness – Aside from Joe’s cognitive decline and Hunter’s volatility, no one believes anymore Joe Biden’s patent lies that he never discussed with Hunter his lucrative grifting career.

However, viewing pregnancy as something that a “womb-carrier” can opt out of is, at its root, the same idea that justified Dr. Mengele’s knife.

I Have 5 Words for These Legislators: Stay Away From Our Children, by Dr. Marilyn M. Singleton

By Dr. Marilyn M. Singleton, America Out Loud – The thought process behind AFDC was only the beginning of the state’s new role in loco parentis.

In multiple states, children can have abortions with no parental involvement, irrespective of possible harm due to abuse in several states.

Tuberville Military Standoff Is Not About Abortion, White Nationalism or National Security, by Dr. Steve LaTulippe 

By Dr. Steve LaTulippe, America Out Loud – Does Defense Sec. Austin really believe funding gender-transition surgeries for military members is a “force multiplier?” If so, the man needs a thorough psychiatric evaluation… This should tell us something.

Are We at War? Biden EO to Mobilize Reserves to ‘Defend NATO’s Eastern Flank’ Against Russia, by Nick Kangadis

By Nick Kangadis, MRCTV – So, are we at war or aren’t we? It depends on who you ask, what time you ask them and which place you’re talking about — which ironically are all rotating questions. And though it appears that the U.S. and President Joe Biden’s regime has used American taxpayer money to fight a proxy war with Ukraine, Biden took the first official public step towards entering the U.S. in actual war itself with Russia and possibly its allies.

Major League Baseball Has Turned Its Back on America’s Pastime, by Zack Smith

By Zack Smith, Heritage Foundation – While recent rule changes, such as adding a pitch clock, banning the shift, and implementing a universal designated hitter, have all been the subject of much debate, Major League Baseball has also been staking out controversial positions on more consequential topics, too—racial justice, LGBTQ+ issues, and business dealings with the Chinese Communist Party… In each instance, Major League Baseball has proven that it no longer deserves its moniker as “America’s pastime.”

Senate GOP Releases Video Accusing Biden Regime of Creating ‘Largest Child Trafficking Ring in U.S. History’, by Nick Kangadis

By Nick Kangadis, MRC TV – (Q)uote from the hit movie “Sound of Freedom”.. “It is the fastest growing international crime network that the world has ever seen.

Because you can sell a bag of cocaine one time, [but] a child — five to 10 times a day.”… the GOP may have silently hit a home run on Tuesday by releasing a video where it looks like Republicans are finally taking the offensive in the country’s current border crisis, which in turn has helped cartels increase their trafficking businesses.

Groomers Hate ‘Sound of Freedom’, by Nate Jackson

By Nate Jackson, Patriot Post – The newest front in the Left’s sexual revolution is children. The groomers want to recruit your children into the rainbow community, including by “transitioning” them before they’re even allowed to walk to a neighborhood playground by themselves. Next they’ll be arguing for the rights of “minor-attracted people” — a.k.a. pedophiles. Indeed, that’s already begun.

Biden Trashes the U.S. Constitution to Muzzle Critics, by Betsy McCaughey

By Betsy McCaughey, The Stream – President Joe Biden has played his cards: all bluff, no aces… Biden is the defendant in a lawsuit accused of what Federal District Court Judge Terry Doughty calls “the most massive attack against free speech in United States history.” Yet the appeal Biden filed on Monday is devoid of even one winning argument in his own defense.

The 15-Minute City, by Emmy Griffin

Corrupt Media Care More About ‘Qanon’ Than Human Trafficking, by Samuel Mangold-Lenett

By Samuel Mangold-Lenett, The Federalist – Angel Studios’ recent film “Sound of Freedom”… is receiving great commercial success and critical acclaim… If anything, one would think that a widely popular cultural phenomenon attempting to encourage people to stand against the ongoing exploitation of children is a net positive… However… left-wing media took the opportunity to lambaste “Sound of Freedom” as “a Superhero Movie for Dads With Brainworms” and a “Trafficking Fantasy Fit for Qanon.”

“Too Ugly For Polite Company”: A Film Review of “The Sound of Freedom”, by Robert Marco

By Robert Marco, Catholic Exchange – And God bless Tim Ballard, the real life DHS agent-turned-vigilante about whom the film is based. The Sound of Freedom is tough viewing, but that doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be viewed. And that’s not because of any graphic depictions or lewdness, but simply because of the subject matter itself. Child sex trafficking is a multi billion (with a B) dollar industry that operates on the market principals of supply and demand. And the Devil’s business is booming.

SCOTUS Affirmative Action Decision Ignores Elephant in the Room, by Kendall Qualls

By Kendall Qualls, American Greatness – It’s an issue that progressives ignore outright. The steep decline of the two-parent black family began after government policies started financially incentivizing women to have children outside the bonds of marriage. The programs were heavily marketed in black communities during the LBJ administration in the 1960s. As a result, we’re experiencing a social tragedy that is the byproduct of generations of government-dependent black children who come from fatherless homes.

Good News: ‘Sound of Freedom’, by Emmy Griffin

By Emmy Griffin, Patriot Post – The U.S. is the No. 1 consumer of porn and sex trafficking in the world. As Caviezel told Fox News’s “Lighthouse Faith” podcast: “300,000 children under the age of 18 were lured into the sex trafficking business in the United States.

By John Zmirak, The Stream – A belated “Thank you!” to President Donald Trump is long overdue… In the past week, two different Stream authors have cited the crucial role that Trump’s impact on our federal courts is playing. Jason Jones noted that the U.S. Supreme Court, as reshaped by Trump, is our last line of defense against lawless federal agencies and our ruthless pagan elites “in the wake of the dodgy 2020 election, and given the failure of House Republicans to use the power of the purse to rein in the Deep State.”

The Bidens’ Existential Threats to the American Rule of Law, by Victor Davis Hanson

By Victor Davis Hanson, Townhall – We can no longer have a United States if its president almost weekly demonstrably lies with impunity about his relationships with the Biden family’s nefarious foreign business interests… You can no longer have an American nation, if the son of the president of the U.S. successfully connives to rake in millions for his extended family by selling his father’s influence to foreign governments… Hunter Biden is now a White House fixture, as if the closer he clings to the nexus of American power and influence, the more likely he will continue to be exempted from American law.

Wanted: A New Birth of Freedom, by John M. Grondelski

By John M. Grondelski, The Catholic Thing – Is freedom an end or a means?… For many people, the former is problematic.  The Judeo-Christian message is that God created us for the good, ultimately for the Summum Bonum, the Highest Good, i.e., God.  Thomist philosophy identified the “ends” of the intellect as truth and of the will as “good.”  When a person chooses to do something, he chooses to do what he regards as good.  He may be mistaken, but human action always operates under the attraction of the “good.”

JPMorgan’s Progressive, Anti-Faith Agenda, by Matthew Mohlman

By Matthew Mohlman, Crisis Magazine – JPMorgan Chase is the nation’s largest bank, and it continues to get bigger—thanks to rent-seekers in government and its own inertia. It also continues to promote a progressive, anti-faith agenda. For that reason, conservatives and Catholics have begun to realize that we do not owe JPMorgan its market share—in fact, we should be actively avoiding the banking giant… This is a challenge to Catholic financial advisers and other industry professionals like myself that we must do more than protest, criticize, and boycott—we must build.

Progressive Christians Want to Watch the Church Burn, by John Zmirak

Why the Left Can’t Stand Homeschooling, by Brian Mark

By Brian Mark, Patriot Post – …the so-called progressive Left has done everything to scare parents away from alternative methods of educating their children. Indeed, for decades they’ve claimed that homeschooling is steeped in racism and child abuse… Leftists fail to address why parents are pulling their kids out of public schools “because the fruits of the poisonous tree would lead back to these same failed leftist education policies,” as our own Emmy Griffin wrote last year. “More and more parents are unwilling to sacrifice their children on the altar of the leftist agenda.”

The Dodger Betrayal, by Anne Hendershott

By Anne Hendershott, Crisis Magazine – The decision by the LA Dodgers org. to honor the “Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence”—a gay-advocacy group that has spent the last four decades denigrating Catholics by dressing as lewd nuns—may not have been intentionally designed to humiliate Catholics, but it certainly has had that effect… While they claim to be satirical in their motto “Go and sin some more,” the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence’s satire fails in their blasphemous statements mocking the “real” Catholic sisters who have selflessly given their lives to Christ.

On Dodgers and Drag Queens, by Michael Warsaw

By Joshua Mercer, LifeNews – By Joshua Mercer, LifeNews – The House Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government on Thursday heard testimony from three former FBI agents … “If you’re a parent attending a school board meeting; if you’re a pro-lifer praying at a clinic, or you’re a Catholic simply going to Mass, you are a target of the government, a target of the FBI,” said House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan, R-OH, ahead of the hearing.

The Pope, the Prime Minister, and the Elephant in the Room, by David Ayers, Ph.D. 

By David Ayers, Ph.D., Crisis Magazine – The pope’s story about his tragicomic encounter with a fiftyish woman who wanted him to bless her “baby”—a dog—certainly colorfully drove home his warnings about the misplaced, upside-down personal priorities among many modern Italians that are contributing to their looming “demographic winter.” Francis has made similar remarks about prioritizing “pets over children” in the past… There were lots of people, lights, and cameras at this remarkable joint presentation—journalists, policy wonks, activists, clerics, and politicians aplenty. So, how did they miss that humongous elephant in the room? That elephant being “the decline of natural marriage.”

FBI Office Handling The Hunter Biden Investigation Failed The Russia-Hoax Test, by Margot Cleveland

By Margot Cleveland, The Federalist – While Durham failed to convict Danchenko of lying to the FBI, the October 2022 trial of the man who served as Christopher Steele’s primary sub-source exposed extensive malfeasance by both the Crossfire Hurricane team and later Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s staff. Among other things, the evidence and court filings revealed that agents opened Danchenko as a CHS even though the FBI had previously launched an espionage investigation into the Russian. However, the special counsel’s report added more details, greatly expanding the scandal.

4 More Companies Go ‘Full Bud Light’ in Their Support for Transgenderism, by Suzanne Bowdey

By Suzanne Bowdey, Daily Signal – Who in their right mind would follow Bud Light down this fatal road? A single can with the wrong partner sent Anheuser-Busch into a nationwide tailspin—with no relief in sight. As other brands watch that five-alarm fire destroy the brand’s reputation, others are reaching for the same hot stove… Why?.. Family Research Council’s Joseph Backholm believes it’s because “progressives are true believers.”

Democrats’ New Rule: Migrants First, Everyone Last, Democrats’ New Rule: Migrants First, Everyone Last, by Betsy McCaughey

By Betsy McCaughey, Patriot Post – Over the last two weeks, (Mayor) Adams has rolled out a scheme to bus hundreds of migrants to upscale motels in Newburgh, Orangetown and Yonkers, pleading that New York City is out of space. It didn’t matter that many of the motel rooms were already occupied or booked. Money talks. New York City pays above-market rates to house migrants, averaging $8,000 per room, per month, taxpayers be damned. The motels acted fast to clear their rooms.

Joe Biden, the Habitual Racialist Demagogue, by Victor Davis Hanson

By Victor Davis Hanson, American Greatness – Biden’s family is corrupt from top to bottom… Its influence peddling schemes increasingly are targets of congressional investigations… Biden promised “unity.” Instead, he habitually smears half the country as “semi-fascists” and “ultra-MAGA” extremists… Biden is cognitively challenged.. incoherent.. and losing support in the polls from African Americans… In response, Biden does what he always had done for some 40 years: mouth wild racist demagoguery.

Are We Missing Something? by Jack Devine

By Jack Devine, Patriot Post – But what about news and commentary on important matters that is missing altogether? Isn’t that the kind of media bias that can really get us into trouble?.. recent examples: 1.) Last Wednesday, the House Oversight Committee, chaired by Rep. James Comer (R-KY) issued a 38-page report revealing what appears to be a sophisticated, high-dollar foreign influence-peddling scheme involving Joe Biden’s family… Last week’s news reporting by MSM.. (ignored) Comer bombshell.. almost completely. Radio silence. Crickets.

Should I Stay or Should I Go? Catholics Discern Moving Over Social Values, by Jonathan Liedl 

By Jonathan Liedl, EWTN News – Jose Galvan wasn’t necessarily eager to move away from the Golden State… But his sense of belonging began to fragment in recent years. Pandemic restrictions limited access to the sacraments at his local parish for more than a year… This coincided with the imposition of a political agenda by the state government that he said ran “counter to our Catholic faith,” including taking steps to make California an “abortion sanctuary” and mandating instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity ….

White House ‘Weaponized’ ESG Movement, State Financial Officers Foundation CEO Says, by Samantha Aschieris

By Samantha Aschieris, Daily Signal – The chief executive officer of the State Financial Officers Foundation says “we never really saw the [environmental, social, and governance] movement weaponized in a way that this White House and administration [have] weaponized it.”… “Certainly, fund managers like BlackRock, State Street, Vanguard have weaponized it, and so it’s really just been in the last two years that we’ve seen them use funds, like pension retirement funds, in a way that leverages those dollars to push these social agendas” ….

By Michael Nevradakis, Ph.D., Children’s Health Defense – During his stay, Marxen, who had not received a COVID-19 vaccine, was administered more than 50 medications, including remdesivir, vancomycin, fentanyl and midazolam, and in the days prior to his death, he was placed on a ventilator… At the time of his death, Marxen had “multiple organ system failure including renal failure, endocarditis, hyperkalemia, MRSA [methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus] pneumonia, MRSA bacteremia and sepsis,” Riggs said.

Democrats’ New Rule: Migrants First, Everyone Else Last, by Betsy McCaughey

By Betsy McCaughey, The Stream – Over the last two weeks, Adams has rolled out a scheme to bus hundreds of migrants to upscale motels in Newburgh, Orangetown and Yonkers, pleading that New York City is out of space. It didn’t matter that many of the motel rooms were already occupied or booked. Money talks. New York City pays above-market rates to house migrants, averaging $8,000 per room, per month, taxpayers be d***ed.

The Durham Report Leaves No Doubt: The FBI Is A Mortal Threat To Democracy, by John Daniel Davidson

By John Daniel Davidson, The Federalist – Imagine someone told you that in the run-up to a U.S. presidential election, the FBI tried to undermine a candidate at the behest of the opposing campaign by cooking up a false narrative of collusion with Moscow… And let’s say this conspiracy implicated not just the FBI but also the White House, Justice Department, and CIA — and that nearly the entire corporate press went along with it, gleefully spreading the false narrative that this candidate was a Russian agent …

Protecting Children Online, by Emmy Griffin

By Emmy Griffin, Patriot Post – With a TikTok ban potentially in the works, lawmakers are working hard to address the bigger issue at hand… U.S. Senators Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) and Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) have introduced the Kids Online Safety Act.

Pornographic Books Found in Texas School Libraries Result in Bipartisan Action to Remove Them, by Tony Kinnett

By Tony Kinnett, Daily Signal – Warning: This report contains sexually graphic images from commonly available books in school libraries, which The Daily Signal has obscured in part… A bill that has passed the Texas House with bipartisan support could become the model for ensuring public school libraries don’t provide sexual content to children… HB 900, sponsored by four Republicans and a Democrat, specifies what “sexual content” is and prescribes actions by Texas public schools to ensure children aren’t given access ….

Trump Bashes DeSantis: Banning Abortions on Babies With Beating Hearts is “Too Harsh”, by Steven Ertelt

By Steven Ertelt. LifeNews – “President Trump’s assertion that the Supreme Court returned the issue of abortion solely to the states is a completely inaccurate reading of the Dobbs decision and is a morally indefensible position for a self-proclaimed pro-life presidential candidate to hold,” she said… Dannenfelser continued, “Life is a matter of human rights, not states’ rights. Saying that the issue should only be decided at the states is an endorsement of abortion up until the moment of birth, even brutal late-term abortions ….

BOMBSHELL: Obama Admin Had No ‘Actual Evidence’ Of Collusion By Trump When It Launched Crossfire Hurricane Investigation, by Shawn Fleetwood

By Shawn Fleetwood, The Federalist – The Obama administration possessed no real evidence that then-candidate Donald Trump colluded with Russian government officials… On Monday, Special Counsel John Durham released the findings of his years-long investigation into the origins of the FBI’s surveillance of the Trump campaign in the months before, during, and after the 2016 presidential contest. Despite the agency’s claims that the inquiry… was predicated on the belief that Trump’s campaign was colluding with Russian officials leading up to the election, Durham’s report found the FBI had no evidence to warrant such an investigation.

UN, WHO, Bill Gates are Working to Normalize Pedophilia Around the World: Journalist, by Andreas Wailzer

By Andreas Wailzer, LifeSiteNews – “I’ve worked for several months now on gathering evidence that shows undeniably, conclusively that the United Nations and United Nations and the World Health Organization and other organizations like Planned Parenthood and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation […] are working all over the world […] to completely take over the education in kindergartens and elementary schools,” Sorenson said on the Truth for Health podcast, hosted by Dr. Elizabeth Lee Vliet.  

Minnesota Democrats Push Government ‘Bias Registry’ to Track Conservative Speech, by Raymond Wolfe

By Raymond Wolfe, LifeSiteNews – Minnesota residents may soon end up on a government database if they discuss the origins of COVID-19 or quote Bible verses that criticize homosexuality… Minnesota’s Democrat-controlled legislature last month approved a bill that requires the state Department of Human Rights to collect allegations of perceived “discrimination” or microaggressions in a new “bias” registry.

FOREBODING: SPLC ‘Laying the Groundwork’ for Government to Silence Conservatives, Traditional Catholic Warns, by Tyler O’Neil

By Tyler O’Neil, The Daily Signal – The FBI appears, at least briefly, to have joined the Southern Poverty Law Center’s attempt to demonize Roman Catholics who follow the church’s teachings on marriage and who celebrate the Latin Mass, in a move one traditional Catholic leader calls both embarrassing and foreboding… Michael J. Matt, editor of The Remnant newspaper and producer of Remnant TV in Forest Lake, Minnesota, said he was surprised to see his organization on a leaked FBI memo in February, alongside other groups he described as “defunct.”

9-Year-Old Boy Denied Kidney Transplant to Save His Life Because He Doesn’t Have COVID Vaccination, by Steven Ertelt 

By Steven Ertelt, LifeNews – A prestigious medical clinic is denying a 9-year-old boy the lifesaving kidney transplant he needs just because he doesn’t have the COVID vaccination… Most Americans understand the COVID crisis is over and a sizable percentage of Americans were never vaccinated for what they considered a flu-like virus that presented little in the way of medica issue for 99% of the people who got it.

Insecure Border Will ‘Get More People Murdered’: House Republican Shares Harrowing Story as Title 42 Expires, by Tyler O’Neil

By Tyler O’Neil, Daily Signal – Reps. John Rutherford, R-Fla., and Tom McClintock, R-Calif., celebrated the passage of a Republican bill to secure the U.S.-Mexico border as Title 42 was set to expire on Thursday, explaining how the bill addresses the border crisis and warning that if the crisis isn’t solved, “This is going to get more people murdered.”… The bill passed, 219-213, with every single Democrat voting against it, and all but two Republicans—Reps. John Duarte of California and Thomas Massie of Kentucky—supporting it.

Feds Started A Dangerous Game With Hunter Biden’s Laptop, But GOP Lawmakers Can Finish It, by Margot Cleveland

By Margot Cleveland, The Federalist – The interim report of the House Intelligence Committee and Weaponization Subcommittee released Wednesday established extensive coordination between the Biden campaign and those behind the statement signed by 51 former intelligence officials that painted the Hunter Biden laptop as Russian disinformation. More explosive, however, is the fact, first reported on Tuesday by The Federalist, that a Central Intelligence Agency employee solicited a former CIA officer to sign the statement.

Can We Reboot the Environmental Movement — So It Protects Freedom, Too? by W. Aaron Vandiver

By W. Aaron Vandiver, Children’s Health Defense – Polls consistently show that the American people, and people around the world, are deeply divided on the biggest issues of the day: COVID-19, climate change and more… Backlash against the COVID-19 fiasco of the last three years is building among a public that is slowly waking up to the unprecedented power grab and wealth transfer that took place under cover of a pandemic… The environmental left is deeply worried about climate change, but the backlash against climate policy also is building.

Will King Charles III Put His Country First or Serve Globalist Interests Instead? by John-Henry Westen

By John-Henry Westen, LifeSiteNews – If there’s anyone who knows about the globalist agenda and how disastrous it is for humanity, it’s Frank Wright. Nevertheless, I want you to hear Frank’s reflections on why, despite all of Charles’ imperfections, there are many reasons to be hopeful that Charles might still reject his globalist alliances and why we should never lose hope in our fervent prayers for the conversion of our leaders.

Documents Show Biden Admin Considers Pro-Life Moms Potential Domestic Terrorists, by Micaiah Bilger 

By Micaiah Bilger, LifeNews – New documents uncovered by America First Legal suggest the Biden administration considers middle-age pro-life mothers to be potential domestic terrorists because they oppose killing unborn babies in abortions… The documents from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security include information about a proposed “Choose Your Own Adventure” training program that portrays a “middle-aged pro-life” mother as a “radicalization suspect” who should be watched out for.

Making Homelessness a Valid Lifestyle Choice is Wrong, by Betsy McCaughey

By Betsy McCaughey, The Stream – Americans must not surrender to the new normal of squalor and urban chaos — of tent encampments, public defecation, panhandling and shouting schizophrenics… In the aftermath of Jordan Neely’s tragic death on a New York subway, advocates for the homeless and most Democratic politicians are demanding unfettered freedom for the homeless to live on the streets, even with mental illness.

Did Tucker Carlson Just Kill Cable News? by Virginia Allen

By Virginia Allen, Daily Signal – (Tucker Carlson) “You can’t have a free society if people aren’t allowed to say what they think is true… Speech is the fundamental prerequisite for democracy,” he said, adding, that is “why it’s enshrined in the first of our constitutional amendments.”… “Amazingly, as of tonight, there aren’t many platforms left that allow free speech. The last big one remaining in the world, the only one, is Twitter—where we are now.”

By Craig Bannister, MRCTV – “BANK RECORDS DON’T LIE,” the House Oversight Committee Chairman tweeted Wednesday, after the committee released a memorandum outlining its findings that millions of dollars were circuitously funneled from foreign entities to members of Pres. Joe Biden’s family… “The Biden family used their web of LLCs & associates to receive millions of dollars from foreign nationals,” the committee tweeted, introducing a video clip of committee Chair Rep. James Comer’s (R-KY) press event announcing release of the 36-page (memorandum) …

What Catholicism Can Teach “DEI”, by David G Bonagura, Jr.

By David G Bonagura, Jr., The Catholic Thing – A promise of universality, charity, and transformation exceeds that of diversity, equity, and inclusion in every way. Why would Catholics want to imitate the minimum standards of the world when they can instead offer those in the world what they truly need: a place in God’s Kingdom, a touch of God’s love, an encounter with God’s salvation. It’s time to update the websites and the slogans: Catholic schools offer UCT to all their students and employees so they can live forever. Done right, it just might lead to secular institutions copying Catholic ones.

McCarthy Is Winning the Debt-Ceiling Standoff, by Douglas Andrews

By Douglas Andrews, Patriot Post – Somewhere around June 1 — no one knows exactly when — the Treasury Department will run out of accounting gimmicks and our nation will exceed its $31.4 trillion debt limit. At that point, we’ll be unable to pay our bills, and we’ll be at risk of defaulting… Unless Congress can come to an agreement with Joe Biden on once again raising that debt ceiling. As we’ve noted previously, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy has been engaged in debt ceiling non-negotiations with our woefully unpopular president ….

The Latest Hollywood Writers Strike Is Doomed to Fail, by Auguste Meyrat 

By Auguste Meyrat, Crisis Magazine – Of course, even conceding all this to the WGA, they themselves are not entirely blameless. When it comes to writing in Hollywood, one massive elephant in the room is the noticeable drop in quality and rise in wokeness in films of the past few years… Terrible writing has successfully sunk even the most popular franchises, costing billions for entertainment behemoths like Disney and Warner Bros. and proving the conservative adage, “Go woke, go broke.”

Biden Administration Announces $1.2B for Ukraine, Bringing Total Military Aid to $36.9B, by Kristina Wong

Challenging the Premise of Our Destruction, by Edward Ring

By Edward Ring, American Greatness – The war on fossil fuel is a war on freedom, prosperity, pluralism, independence, national sovereignty, world peace, domestic tranquility, and, most ironically, the environment itself. It is a war of rich against poor, the privileged against the disadvantaged, corporate monopolies against competitive upstarts, Malthusians against optimists, regulators against innovators, and authoritarians against freedom-loving people everywhere.

The Culture War Isn’t The Most Important Issue Of 2024, It’s The Only Issue, by John Daniel Davidson

By John Daniel Davidson, The Federalist – The more obvious it becomes that our domestic political struggles are actually part of a much larger spiritual war over the fate of western civilization, that we are today engaged not so much in a political fight as a religious battle between good and evil, the stronger the urge seems to be among Republican politicians to deny this reality and take refuge in the comforting political narratives of the past… Keep this in mind as we march toward the 2024 election cycle. The cast of buffoons and egomaniacs on the Republican side will feature mostly candidates who don’t understand or don’t want to admit what’s happening.

Ex-Pfizer VP: COVID Vax Push a ‘Supranational Operation’ Intended to ‘Maim and Kill Deliberately’

By Patrick Delaney, LifeSiteNews – ‘Multiple obvious toxicities were deliberately built into [the alleged vaccines’] designs, with the result that there would be high expectations of blood clots, autoimmune attacks and cytokine storms all over the body, depending on where it went in a given individual,’ Dr. Michael Yeadon… “When you inject this into a person and it spreads around their body and gets absorbed into a cell, that message gets converted into a protein.”….

Appeals Court Panel Appears Likely to Block Abortion Pill or Ban Mail-Order Abortions, by Steven Ertelt

By Steven Ertelt, LifeNews – A federal appeals court appears likely to either block the abortion pill nationwide or at least ban mail-order abortions… That’s because the makeup of the three-judge panel that will consider the major case doctors filed against the FDA’s approval process of the dangerous abortion drug are conservative appointees who understand there is not a right to abortion… Last month, the Supreme Court allowed continued sales of the abortion pill while the case continued at the lower court level. The vote was 7-2, with Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito dissenting.

Church Militant: Catholic Bishops Exploit Faith to Promote Woke Christianity

By Church Militant – There are fewer things in the Church more revolting to listen to or see than woke bishops. They are just the latest evolution in the class of men who began as social justice warriors and simply morphed into the next phase…. Take, for example, the archbishop of San Antonio, Texas, Gustavo García-Siller… And before we get into specifics about him, consider that all of these terms are nothing other than dog whistles for communism: woke, social justice, socialism, equity and any other substitute word that comes to mind. It’s communism, plain and simple.

Incarcerated Pro-Lifers Witness to Inmates, by William Mahoney, Ph.D.

By William Mahoney, Ph.D., Church Militant – Two of five pro-life advocates are free from jail after witnessing behind bars to inmates. Dr. Monica Miller and John Hinshaw of Red Rose Rescue were released from jail on Friday while Laura Gies, Matthew Connolly and Fr. Fidelis Moscinski will remain behind bars with varying release dates… “Indeed, when our fellow inmates know why we are in jail, we receive much respect and support!” she stated.

Can the United States Endure? by Nolan Lewallen

By Nolan Lewallen, The Stream – Article 4 Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution states: “The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a republican form of government, and shall protect each of them against invasion.” The powers that be on the Left can quote that, and yet we’ve witnessed an all-out invasion at our southern border for nearly two and a half years. They have invaded from more than 160 countries, and a recent Pew Research poll found that 63% of them are coming from countries other than Mexico and the Northern Triangle.

El Paso Shelter Director: ‘Humanitarian Crisis’ Is Worst I’ve Ever Seen, ‘We Are Expecting the Worst’ when Title 42 Ends, by Ian Hanchett

ERA: Last Chance for Abortion-on-Demand, by John M. Grondelski 

By John M. Grondelski, Crisis Magazine – Two writers have flagged something much of the political class dances around with pirouettes that would make the Juilliard School jealous: the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) is pro-abortion. They quote Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) who, in remarks on the Senate floor April 27, made the pro-abortion nexus of the ERA clear… The Senate was taking up a resolution purportedly to declare the ERA part of the Constitution and retroactively to remove the seven-year ratification deadline Congress set when it proposed the amendment in 1972, which expired in 1979.

The Impending Thermidor Reaction in Jacobin America, by Victor Davis Hanson

By Victor Davis Hanson, American Greatness – The decade-long French Revolution that broke out in 1789 soon devolved into far more than removing the monarchy, as it became antithetical to the earlier American precedent. American notions of liberty and freedom were seen as far too narrow, given the state, if only all-powerful and all-wise, could mandate “equality” and force “fraternity” among its subjects… Each cycle of French revolutionary fervor soon became more radicalized and cannibalistic—until it reached its logical ends of violent absurdity.

Republican States Are Cracking Down on America’s Horrific Transgender Mutilation Crisis, by Raymond Wolfe

By Raymond Wolfe, LifeSiteNews – Republican-led states are pushing back against the radical LGBT movement with a wave of new laws restricting devastating transgender surgeries and drugs for children… 2023 has been a breakthrough year in the fight against LGBT ideology and the grave danger it poses to children. Since January, 14 states have approved laws to ban or limit “gender transitions” for minors, which have exploded in popularity in recent years as gender confusion has surged among youth.

Biden’s 1,500 Troops Sent to Southern Border Are a ‘Welcome Wagon,’ Retired Border Patrol Agent Says, by Virginia Allen

By Virginia Allen, Daily Signal – “It’s a welcome wagon,” a retired Border Patrol agent says of the 1,500 active-duty troops the Biden administration is sending to the southern border ahead of the expiration of Title 42 on May 11… The troops will be helping with “non-law enforcement duties,” according to the Homeland Security Department, but Frank Lopez says that likely means they will be assigned tasks like “feeding [illegal aliens], to providing water, [and] blankets for little kids.”

The Inherent Hypocrisy of Liberal Ideology, by Phil Lawler

By Phil Lawler, Catholic Culture – (What) has become a fairly standard practice among liberal polemicists: accusing their opponents of doing exactly what they themselves are doing… Hypocrisy is not an occasional failing of the liberal ideologue; it is an inherent characteristic: not a bug but a feature… when a liberal critic complains that your attitude is unacceptable or your argument is unfair, step back and reconsider. Chances are, he’s doing exactly what he charges you with doing.

EXCLUSIVE: Biden Bribery Allegation Could Mean Impeachment, Republican Policy Chair Says, by Fred Lucas

By Fred Lucas, Daily Signal – Impeachment is the only recourse if a government whistleblower’s allegation that President Joe Biden was part of a bribery scheme is true, said Rep. Gary Palmer, R-Ala., chairman of the Republican Policy Committee… “You can’t prosecute a sitting president for crimes, so the only recourse—if this document exists, and we believe it does—is for the House to bring articles of impeachment”

Rescuing Our Kids From Public School’s Pleasure Island, by Emmy Griffin

By Emmy Griffin, Patriot Post – There is a terrifying logic to the leftist infiltration of our public schools. If they control the minds of children, they have their hooks in the future of the country. Aside from the multitude of evils that this is already producing (transgenderism, critical race theory, environmental cultists), kids are failing academically. This is particularly true in the arenas of history and civics… History and civics actually got the lowest scores on the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) — i.e. the Nation’s Report Card …

Conservatives Won The Word ‘Woke.’ Now It’s Time To Reclaim Accurate Language Everywhere, by Elle Purnell

By Elle Purnell, The Federalist – By describing woke ideologies and their fruits at face value, conservatives felled the left’s self-conferred monopoly on how, when, and where the term could be used. But the same people policing the word “woke” are appointing themselves the arbiters of the rest of the English language, too… For those of us who prefer our words to reflect reality, there is nothing to be gained by good-naturedly going along with linguistic charades. On the other hand, there is the entire discourse to be lost.

Gen. Flynn Exclusive: We’re Not Going to Win 2024 but the Governors Can Change Everything, by Lt. Gen. Michael T. Flynn

By Retired U.S. Army Lt. Gen. Michael T. Flynn, The Western Journal – Have we lost America to a Marxist-communist movement? Are we in an unrecoverable tailspin toward our nation’s demise? Why have I asked these questions, you ask? It is because the Marxist left has so corrupted America and its election system that it appears no Republican candidate can win in 2024. There, I said it. It won’t happen. Instead, these next two years will not simply be the same as the past two — they will be far worse.

Why Send the Military to the Border? by Emmy Griffin

By Emmy Griffin, Patriot Post – But don’t worry — Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre says that illegal migration is down 90%… The Defense Dept. therefore is preparing to send 1,500 more personnel to the border… Under Pres.Biden’s watch, however, these 1,500 troops would be helping only with administrative tasks and transportation, not actually stopping illegals from entering the country. In other words, this show of force is really a Babylon Bee quip: “Biden Deploys 1,500 Troops At Border To Help Register New Voters.” He’s turning satire into accurate accounting.

‘The Big Catch-up’: Chelsea Clinton Partners With WHO, Gates Foundation on ‘Largest Childhood Immunization Effort Ever’, by Michael Nevradakis, Ph.D.

By Michael Nevradakis, Ph.D., Children’s Health Defense – “The Big Catch-up” initiative, described by the World Health Organization as a “targeted global effort to boost vaccination among children following declines driven by the COVID-19 pandemic,” will last 18 months… Chelsea Clinton — via the Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI) — along with the World Health Organization (WHO), UNICEF and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation launched an initiative called “The Big Catch-up.”

First ‘Direct Link’ to Biden? House GOP Vows to Fully Pursue Bribery Probe, by Fred Lucas 

By Fred Lucas, Daily Signal – The White House dismisses the revelation that a government whistleblower implicates President Joe Biden in a bribery scheme, calling the accusation no different than other investigations of the president’s family “going on five years.”… But this allegation is quite different, noted one member of the House Oversight and Accountability Committee.
“This is the first time there has been a direct link to President Biden and influence peddling,” Rep. Russell Fry, R-S.C., told The Daily Signal in a phone interview….

Church Militant: Illegal Immigration Makes Money for the Bishops

By Church Militant – In this episode of The Download, Brad Eli, Simon Rafe, Christine Niles and David Gordon discuss the slew of problems related to illegal immigration. They are joined by senior producer Joe Enders, who explains House Republicans’ plan to get ahead of the end of Title 42 — a pandemic-related measure that makes it easier to stop immigrants from entering the United States. When that policy ends, many expect the migration crisis to worsen.

Judge Orders PA District to Allow After School Satan Club to Meet on School Grounds, by Joe Bukuras

By Joe Bukuras, CNA – A federal judge in Pennsylvania has ruled that The Satanic Temple must be allowed to hold its “After School Satan Club” in a public middle school in Pennsylvania’s Saucon Valley School District… U.S. District Court Judge John Gallagher, sitting in Allentown, issued the preliminary injunction just days after The Satanic Temple held its second annual conference called “SatanCon” in Boston, which was heavily protested by Catholics.

Bishops’ Heads About To Explode As Congress Introduces Bill To Cut-Off Funding Their Illegal Immigration Activities, by Lora Ries

By Lora Ries, Daily Signal – What started out decades ago as faith-based organizations (NGO’s) supporting the State Department to resettle genuine refugees in the U.S. after a legitimate application process has evolved into mass illegal immigration and downstream activities, creating an immigration industrial complex (for NGO’s) worth billions of dollars.

When Political Agenda Tries to Override the Constitution, by Andrea M. Picciotti-Bayer 

By Andrea M. Picciotti-Bayer, EWTN News – If your teenage children are curious about how the Constitution and federal laws protect religious believers, then they should steer clear of Teen Vogue… Surprisingly, the publication has just published a long article on a case before the Supreme Court, involving Lorie Smith, an evangelical Christian website designer in Colorado who doesn’t want to be forced to use her creative talents to design websites for same-sex weddings. Less surprisingly, given Teen Vogue’s progressive worldview, the article is relentlessly biased against her.

Title 42 Countdown: 700,000 Migrants in Mexico Waiting to Rush U.S. Border, by John Binder

By John Binder, Breitbart – As many as 700,000 migrants, a foreign population larger than Boston, Massachusetts, are currently in Mexico waiting to rush the United States-Mexico border when President Joe Biden ends the public health authority known as Title 42 on May 11… In 2020, in the midst of the Chinese coronavirus crisis, former President Donald Trump invoked the public health authority known as Title 42 at the border, ensuring that federal immigration officials have been able to quickly return millions of illegal aliens to Mexico over the last three years.

America Out Loud: Flying Blind: FAA Failure To Protect Public From Vaccine-Injured Pilots

Kansas and Arizona Governors Veto Bills Prohibiting Infanticide, by Melissa Ohden & Marjorie Dannenfelser

By Melissa Ohden & Marjorie Dannenfelser, Real Clear Politics – Every day across the country, scenes of stark disparity in who receives health care play out in a way that would shock most Americans. In one reality, in the neonatal intensive care unit, doctors are heroically working to save the tiniest, most fragile patients – premature babies – and their coworkers are striving to keep the new mothers stable. Meanwhile, in another room, possibly down the hall in the same hospital, or maybe down the road in the same city, a baby identical in age is left on a cold metal tray to die, struggling to live.

By Children’s Health Defense – Edipeel is described as a colorless, odorless, tasteless coating for fruit and vegetables that’s composed entirely of a mixture of food-grade glycerolipids, derived from edible plant oils… Is it safe?

Prepare for a Jolt to Your Power Bill, by Douglas Andrews

By Douglas Andrews, Patriot Post – Joe Biden’s latest energy regulations are shaping up to be his costliest yet… we Americans get 60% of our electricity from the aforementioned coal and gas-fired power plants. The idea that we could, at any time in the foreseeable future, replace three-fifths of our energy supply with the Left’s twin fantasies of wind and solar is lunacy. But with nuclear, it’s entirely doable — if only we can summon up the collective will.

Hughes, CNSNews – In the week ending April 22, Bud Light sales are down more than 21% across the country, signaling a major blow to a beer brand whose base audience is rooted in blue-collar men.

President Trump Must Expose “Operation Warp Speed”, by Dr. Steve LaTulippe

By Dr. Steve LaTulippe, America Out Loud – Recent voter polls show that many Americans are siding with Donald Trump as the 2024 presidential race slowly gains momentum. Despite his strong and proven track record in his last term, some good conservatives say they aren’t voting for Trump based on one issue: he has never apologized for Operation Warp Speed. Is this really the main issue?… I get it. Nobody of sound intelligence and knowledge of scientific truth can deny that the so-called mRNA vaccines have caused countless injuries and deaths.

By Todd Bensman, The Federalist – An estimated 15,000 mostly Haitian immigrants have packed into every crevice of this northern Mexican city on the Rio Grande across from McAllen, Texas, and won’t leave. At least not until after 11:59 p.m. on May 11… the moment when the pandemic-era “Title 42” rapid expulsion policy finally expires and is replaced by a new, untested Biden administration plan for keeping them in Reynosa as well as the “volatile logjam,” as The New York Times recently termed them, of tens of thousands of other immigrants now waiting for the policy change all over Mexico.

Dennis Prager’s Troubling Defense of Pornography, by Carl R. Trueman

By Carl R. Trueman, First Things – Many aspects of Prager’s comment are disturbing, not least his failure to address the dark nature of the pornography industry itself. But it is also instructive, because it exposes the superficiality of some of what passes for conservative thought today. Prager’s statement reveals that he lacks a real grasp of what is causing the social and political problems that he claims to abhor: We live in a time of anthropological chaos, where the very notion of what it means to be human is no longer a matter of broad social and political consensus.

Repeatedly Deported Illegal Murders Five, by Nate Jackson

By Nate Jackson, Patriot Post – Open borders have sometimes deadly consequences… An intentional invasion of our southern border has been welcomed and enabled by Joe Biden’s administration. Democrats are politically invested in the results of millions of migrants making their way to the U.S., and they are increasingly ideologically committed to the idea that a national border is fundamentally unfair and wrong… How many more innocent people have to die before that choice becomes a bit easier?

8 Ways Government Shielded Joe Biden From The ‘Laptop From Hell’, by Margot Cleveland

By Margot Cleveland, The Federalist – Biden and his backers lied to Americans that the Hunter Biden laptop was “Russian disinformation.” While that might merely qualify as dirty politics, our government’s assistance in burying the scandal constituted election interference… Though we don’t yet know the extent of government involvement in the info ops, the evidence already indicates eight potential actions taken to protect Biden from what former President Donald Trump and others have since called the “laptop from hell” and hand him the White House.

‘Important Conversations Never Had’: Colleges Quietly End Mandates Without Addressing Harms, by Brenda Baletti, Ph.D.

By Brenda Baletti, Ph.D., Children’s Health Defense – Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Children’s Health Defense said, “Any industry that looked at this product would say, this is the perfect business to be in. There’s no cost. The federal government pays for anything, and there’s no liability and there’s no accountability and there’s no marketing.”… That, he said, created a sort of “gold rush” of vaccines, and many vaccines were added to the vaccine schedule. They became part of a suite of toxins that are poisoning human health, with very little public pushback.

Schumer: The Equal Rights Amendment Would Protect Abortion, by John Hirschauer

By John Hirschauer, The American Conservative – Sen. Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.. “Anyone who thinks the [Equal Rights Amendment] isn’t necessary at a time like this is not paying attention to the terrible things happening in this country. In the past year alone, (SCOTUS) has eliminated the protections of Roe v. Wade, our courts have targeted drugs like mifepristone, and we’ve seen over a dozen hard-right states enact near-total bans on abortions. We need the ERA more than ever, ever before.”

COVID Vaccines Were Never Safe for Pregnant Women, Pfizer’s Own Data Show, by David Bell, M.D.

By David Bell, M.D., Brownstone Institute – The mRNA vaccines were released globally in early 2021 with the slogan “safe and effective.” Unusually for a new class of medicine, they were soon recommended by public health authorities for pregnant women… Given all of the problems with efficacy and safety, the administration of these products to women of childbearing age, and administration to healthy pregnant women is high-risk and not justified.

The Brew: Tenured Radicals to Taxpayers: ‘Shut Up and Pay Us.’ How Pfizer Shoved the Vax Down Our Throats, by John Zmirak

By John Zmirak, The Stream – Maybe it’s time to straight-up defund the universities.

‘One Health’: What Is It, Who’s Promoting It — and Why? by Michael Nevradakis, Ph.D.

By Michael Nevradakis, Ph.D., Children’s Health Defense – The “One Health” concept has been gaining traction among public health policymakers in recent years — but questions remain about what One Health really means, who’s behind the concept and whether what started out as a sound idea has since been hijacked by individuals or groups that see it as a means to expand their power…The WHO defines One Health as “an integrated, unifying approach that aims to sustainably balance and optimize the health of people, animals and ecosystems,” as they are “closely linked and interdependent.”

Tucker Carlson DESTROYS the ‘One Party State’: ‘They’re Braindead, Nobody Actually Believes Them’, by Nick Kangadis

By Nick Kangadis, CNSNews – “Suddenly the United States looks very much like a one party state. That’s a depressing realization, but it’s not permanent,” Carlson said. “Our current orthodoxies won’t last. They’re braindead. Nobody actually believes them.

A ‘Conspiracy Theorist’—and a Kennedy—as a Presidential Contender, by Phil Lawler

By Phil Lawler, Catholic Culture – Previous presidential campaigns by members of the Kennedy clan drew early and enthusiastic support from liberal donors and pundits. But the announcement by RFK Jr. prompted disdain from the activists who were once his allies, and even members of his own family.

Beer, Chocolate Bars, Razor Blades: Conservatives Cash in as Woke Companies Put Politics Over Profits, by Craig Bannister

By Craig Bannister, CNSNews – Whether it’s beer, razor blades or chocolates, conservatives have begun cashing in on once-mainstream, now-woke corporations insulting their intelligence and values… Apparently, a corollary to “Go Woke, Go Broke” axiom is “Stay Sane, Profits Gain”… One of the most profitable market opportunities for conservative companies has been to quickly provide alternatives to well-established brands when they alienate customers by promoting liberal gender ideology.

WATCH! Tucker Carlson: Too True for Fox, by Douglas Andrews

By Douglas Andrews, Patriot Post – About halfway through his speech at Heritage, Carlson gave what we think should’ve been his closing remarks: “Every man is kind of trained from birth to fantasize about what he would do when the building catches fire and you hear a baby crying. And so you run inside. No one is trained to stand up in the middle of a DEI meeting at Citibank and say, ‘This is nonsense.’ And the people who do that — they have my deepest admiration. And so their example really gives me hope. It thrills me.”… That sort of example should give all of us hope. If we let the liars and the censors win, all that matters will be lost.

By Craig Bannister, CNSNews – Starting next month, homebuyers with good credit will have to pay a monthly mortgage fee to subsidize people with bad credit who want mortgage loans.
The fee, which was instituted by a Biden Administration rule – not by Congress – adds about $40 more a month ($480 per year) to the mortgages of those with credit scores of 680 buying homes in the $400,000 range… The new fee is part of the environmental, social and governance (ESG) movement, which seeks to impose liberal ideology on businesses and, by extension, American citizens.

‘Environmental Justice’ From Climate Saint Joe, by Nate Jackson

By Nate Jackson, Patriot Post – Putting an adjective before the word “justice” usually means you’re no longer getting justice.

Vax Deaths Increase… So Let’s Put It in the Food?!? by Tom Renz

By Tom Renz, Esq., America Out Loud Truth – Furthermore, we are now seeing scientific research that shows mRNA, gene modifying vaccines will cause death and disease to people for decades… All this while they inject this poison into our food supply. Missouri House Bill 1169 will go to vote this week, and there’s no other legislation more critical to our nation than this bill.

COMMENTARY: DEI Has Failed; We Do Not Need More of It, by Jonathan Butcher

By Jonathan Butcher, Heritage Foundation – School districts across the country have established diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) offices to reduce discrimination, and the Department of Education regularly touts the value of DEI programs to quell bias… Yet nationwide, school officials reported a “record number” of discrimination complaints last year… How can this be?.. In truth, studies show that DEI offices accomplish little more than producing a lot of bureaucratic sound and fury on the taxpayers’ dime.

Do We Even Know We Are All Socialists Now? by Victor Davis Hanson

By Victor Davis Hanson, American Greatness – Sometimes when you are in the midst of a revolution, you do not even know it… I doubt all the Germans who voted in National Socialism quite foresaw what quickly was to come. Those who overthrew the Bourbons or the Romanoffs had no real idea that they had sown the wind and were soon to reap the Jacobin and Bolshevik whirlwind… So it is with our “woke”—a euphemism for the socialist revolution we are in and do not fully appreciate or even understand… Socialism is variously defined.

The Joy of the Habsburg Legacy, by Austin Ruse 

By Austin Ruse, Crisis Magazine – As a diplomat with a strong inner editor, he does not offer political opinions. It is clear in his writing and in his conversation, however, that creeping globalism concerns him. He believes in subsidiarity, that the body closest to the problem has the responsibility and even the right to deal with it and not bureaucrats farther away. This comports with the official Hungarian line that, while supportive of Europe, does not appreciate greater encroachment from Brussels.

Human Tidal Wave Is Waiting for Border to Open May 11 — Biden Has No Plan to Stop It, by Todd Bensman

By Todd Bensman, The NY Post – The real, true, and final end of pandemic-era measure “Title 42,” which allowed for the quick expulsion of all illegal immigrants crossing the southern border, is nigh… Set to end May 11, the title was a potent deterrent when former President Donald Trump applied it to almost 90% of all illegal crossing immigrants and far less so under the (Biden), who expelled only 35%… I predict big trouble is on the way to the southern border, from which I’ve just returned… A human tidal wave is building all over Mexico and farther south.

Are You Eating Pork Injected With Merck’s mRNA Livestock Vaccine? by Dr. Joseph Mercola

By Dr. Joseph Mercola, Children’s Health Defense – For the last couple of years, I’ve recommended not eating pork due to its high linoleic acid (LA) content, but there’s an even bigger reason to avoid it now… Since 2018, pork producers have been using customizable mRNA-based “vaccines” on their herds, and this has slipped completely under the radar.

Republicans Need To Stop Being Cowards On Abortion, by David Harsanyi

By David Harsanyi, The Federalist – Making the moral case for protecting viable life isn’t particularly difficult — certainly not when contrasted with the left’s extremism… How many voters understand that the Democratic Party supports legalized abortion through all nine months of pregnancy on demand for virtually any reason?

Bishops Turn Blind Eye Toward TransCatholic Joe Biden, by Christopher Manion

By Christopher Manion, The Wanderer – Last June, Joe Biden boasted to the AFL-CIO that his administration was “changing people’s lives.” He didn’t add that American Catholic lives were “Target Number One” — we’ve had to learn that the hard way. The fact that Joe is a baptized Catholics holding in thrall the Georgetown Jesuit Community does raise eyebrows, to be sure, but it gets no rise from America’s Catholic bishops. We’re left to figure it out for ourselves.

Fr. Shenan J. Boquet: Texas Abortion Pill Ruling and Its Implications

By Fr. Shenan J. Boquet, Human Life International – In the year 2000, the US FDA approved two chemical abortion drugs. The pair of drugs – mifepristone and misoprostol – are sometimes referred to as RU-486.

San Fran Implosion? by Emmy Griffin

By Emmy Griffin, Patriot Post – …Secular relativism doesn’t work in reality… San Francisco has been governed by a Democrat since 1968. That’s 55 years.

Can We Do Anything About America’s Decline? by Victor Davis Hanson

By Victor Davis Hanson, American Greatness – Twenty-first-century America was on a trajectory of gradual decline—until it began to implode… Was the accelerant the COVID-19 pandemic and unhinged lockdowns? Or was the catalyst the woke revolution fueled by the 2020 summer of exempted rioting, looting, arson, and violence? Or was it perhaps the deranged fixation on removing Donald Trump from the presidency and destroying the rule of law in the process? Or all that and more?

Uncovering the ‘Why’ of Corporate Wokeism, by Douglas Andrews

By Douglas Andrews, The Patriot Post – Fundamental to (the HRC’s) mission is the organization’s so-called Corporate Equality Index, which works a lot like the Mob’s protection racket: Nice business ya got there.

Why We Can’t Divorce America’s Founding And Future From Christianity, by Paul Krause

By Paul Krause, The Federalist – When discussing the American founding, it is common to hear that the Founding Fathers were not Christian and not influenced by Christian ideas.

By Tom Renz, Esq., America Out Loud – We need to discuss the fascinating world of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD).

Our French Revolution, by Victor Davis Hanson

By Victor Davis Hanson, American Greatness – The Democratic Party vanished sometime in 2020… It was absorbed by hard-left ideologues. They were bent on radically altering, or hijacking, existing institutions to force radical, equality-of-result agendas that otherwise do not earn majority support… This revolution is run by elites and is a top-down operation… Words change their meanings. “Racist” now means “don’t dare object.” “White” became the pejorative stereotype used by racists. “Diversity” means tired orthodoxy. “Equity” is a synonym for bias. “Inclusion” ensures exclusion.

Georgia Attorney General Calls Catholic Sexual Abuse Cover-Up ‘Horrific’, by Christopher Carr

By Christopher Carr, Georgia.gov – This abuse and cover-up by the Church prior to 2002 is horrific and indefensible. As I turned each page of this 267-page report and saw the pattern that emerged and the number of lives destroyed, it further sickened and angered me.

The Cancelling of Christianity, by Regis Martin

By Regis Martin, Crisis Magazine – Now that the trans activists have told us what an awful provocation our beliefs have become to their way of life, maybe the time has come for us to just go ahead and cancel Christianity altogether. Mightn’t that be the right thing to do in the interest of keeping our children safe? How else are we to ensure the goodwill of our LGBTQI+ neighbors if we’re not willing to dismantle the very structures that are so oppressive to them? We certainly don’t wish to continue driving them to the extremity of trying to kill us, do we?

Douglas Macgregor, LifeSiteNews, American Conservative) – The crisis of American national power has begun… America’s economy is tipping over, and Western financial markets are quietly panicking.

By Edward Haugland, America Out Loud – Undeclared War of Terror – This vulnerability manifests itself today as a majority of Americans remain unaware, uninformed, and ignorant that we are already at war – we are in a domestic cognitive war… an unrestricted war of terror being waged against America by an extremist set of our fellow citizens.

TikTok Time in Congress, by Emmy Griffin

By Emmy Griffin, Patriot Post – TikTok… has come to stand as a symbol for all the ills that social media is bringing to society.

By Nolan Lewallen, The Stream – As some of you know, I’m often quick to pounce on the Democrats, but I never want to get so ideological that I’m “blinded” to Republicans’ wrongdoings. On Monday, Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR), who had become one of my favorite senators the last few years, tweeted this about the crisis in the banking industry: “It was Joe Biden’s reckless spending that created runaway inflation, which led to higher interest rates, which put the squeeze on banks like Silicon Valley Bank.”

Revisiting the Soros DAs, by Emmy Griffin

By Emmy Griffin, Patriot Post – DeSantis also made a very pertinent point: I do know this: The Manhattan district attorney is a Soros-funded prosecutor. And so he, like other Soros-funded prosecutors — they weaponize their office to impose a political agenda on society at the expense of the rule of law and public safety. He has downgraded over 50% of the felonies to misdemeanors. He says he doesn’t want to even have jail time for the vast, vast majority of crimes. ..

Democrats’ Banana-Republic Persecution Of Donald Trump Must Meet A Republican Response, by Tom Crist

By Tom Crist, The Federalist – American media has bombarded us daily from all directions to make sure we know that Donald Trump indirectly paid a woman to shut her mouth as she and her now-convict lawyer, Michael Avenatti, shook him down for money… In New York, false financial accounting can be a low-level misdemeanor, but it’s rarely prosecuted. Now Alvin Bragg, a municipal prosecutor, is trying to make a name for himself by charging former President Trump with that crime.

The Appalling ‘Morality’ of Democrats, by Brian Mark Weber

The Brew: Trump’s March Madnessm, by Al Perrotta

By Al Perrotta, The Stream – On Tuesday, if Donald Trump is correct, America will officially become a banana republic. The kind of despotic hellhole where the party in power arrests the leading opposition figure on absurd charges. It’s as if Joe Biden and his friend in the Manhattan D.A. office asked, “What Would Putin Do?”… Reports are Trump is getting indicted this week for the $130,000 that ended up in the hands of stripper Stormy Daniels during the 2016 campaign. Because, gosh, heaven forbid the public found out that Donald Trump had been a hound dog.

The Waste of Our Ignorant Age, by Anthony Esolen

By Anthony Esolen, American Greatness – America has problems, cultural, economic, and political, that cannot be addressed, let alone discussed, in the current climate of hysteria, irresponsibility, and ignorance. What tremendous waste! That any politician should have to spend a moment dealing with the madness of gelding boys and spaying girls, or addressing public school teachers who expose children to perversions … “Four out of 10 of your children grow up without a father. What has happened to your sense of duty? Are your men all cads, and your women all slatterns?”

Free Childcare as a Ponzi Scheme, by Phil Lawler

By Phil Lawler, Catholic Culture – In the UK, Chancellor Jeremy Hunt has proposed that the government should subsidize free daycare for all children nine months old or older. Hunt argues that this measure, expensive as would be, would actually ease pressures on the government’s budget, because more parents (mothers, mostly) would be able to join the workforce, and therefore to pay taxes… … what about the children?

Overschooled and Undereducated, by Anthony Esolen 

By Anthony Esolen, Crisis Magazine – The purpose of schooling—which is not the same as education—is to encourage people to express confident platitudes, which they are pleased to call their opinions, about things they know nothing of. This is far worse than ignorance. I am trying to imagine my grandfather expressing an opinion about the Middle Ages. It is impossible. I cannot do it. He would have been as likely to put forth dogma regarding green men from Mars.

The March Madness of the President, by Victor Davis Hanson

By Victor Davis Hanson, American Greatness – Another couple of weeks, another bout of madness from Joe Biden and his team. Of recent Biden delusions, consider: Biden went off in one of his impromptu Corn Pop, or “beat-up-Trump-behind-the-bleachers” fables. These often slurred and nearly unintelligible tales characteristically virtue signal Biden’s own victimhood and “courage.”… They are interspersed with his bizarre propensity for eerie female contact.

The Price of Eliminating Consequences, by Victor Davis Hanson

By Victor Davis Hanson, American Greatness – What is common to the pandemic of smash-and-grab, carjacking, fighting on airliners while in flight, and deadly Saturday night shoot-outs is this same apparent assurance there will be no consequences… That expectation of exemption is why the Antifa thugs in Atlanta were so bold in their latest violent attacks on the police.

By Al Perrotta, The Stream – If you tuned into night two of the Tucker Carlson’s discussion of the J6 tapes expecting to see more video revelations, boy, were you disappointed. For whatever reason, Carlson didn’t really feature much new footage. Curiously enough. (Pressure from the bosses?)… Tucker declared the hysterical reaction from official Washington is all about “fear” and “panic,” proving two points: First, “We’re getting close to what they care about.” Which begs the question, he said, “What are they trying to protect?”

WHO’s Pandemic Treaty Is A Gift To China And A Globalist Nightmare For Everyone Else, by Shawn Fleetwood

By Shawn Fleetwood, The Federalist – The United States should never participate in any treaty that undermines its sovereignty and freedom to act in a time of crisis. Yet that’s exactly what the Biden administration is attempting to do through a new agreement with the World Health Organization… On Feb. 1, the World Health Organization (WHO), which fumbled its response to the Covid-19 pandemic with deadly consequences, released a “zero draft” of its “WHO CA+” treaty, a proposed agreement under consideration by the United States and other WHO member states that seeks to grow the international body’s power and influence in handling future pandemics.

Celebrate ‘Women’s History’ With Men Dressed as Women, by Emmy Griffin

By Emmy Griffin, Patriot Post – We as a culture have allowed ourselves to be indoctrinated into a cult that promotes self-worship, idolatry, and self-harm. Because many people in politics have been unwilling to take a firm stand on truth because it offends someone, women have slowly been erased. On this issue, there should be no compromise: Men are men; women are women… The acolytes of this religion of secular relativism happily create their own truth regardless of the Truth…

By Peter Breggin MD & Ginger Breggin, America Out Loud – On February 2, 2023, Robert W. Malone, MD, finally called for a ban on mRNA and DNA COVID injections — years after many of us had come to the same conclusion.1 But to our shock, we have now discovered that Malone, more than three years ago, had already scientifically proven and published that these COVID vaccinations with genetic mRNA and DNA were too dangerous for human consumption, even experimentally. He never made professional or public disclosures of this information. Meanwhile, the article remained in obscurity until we recently discovered it.

Derailments, Fires, and Power Failures, Oh My! by Emmy Griffin

By Emmy Griffin, Patriot Post – Are many of these incidents just coincidence, or something more sinister?… There is a general rising concern across the nation about the vulnerability of different aspects of our infrastructure.

Experts Tell US Senate the Pro-Abortion Equal Rights Amendment is Legally Dead, by Calvin Freiburger

By Calvin Freiburger. LifeSiteNew – Originally proposed and defeated decades ago, the ERA states that “Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.” But many argue that if implemented, this seemingly-simple yet redundant language would be interpreted as codifying into law non-rights such as abortion and have broad ramifications on everything from the military draft and sex-segregated prisons to women-only restrooms and male-only clergy.

The ERA’s Manipulation of Thought and Culture, by Dr. Jeff Mirus

By Dr. Jeff Mirus, Catholic Culture – I see the so-called Equal Rights Amendment is back in the Senate again, and of course the USCCB is once more warning against it. Or perhaps I should not say “of course”, because we have learned the hard way that we can take almost nothing for granted as Catholics. But in this the USCCB has been right, recognizing the tremendous harm of politically guaranteeing civil “rights” that violate the natural law either explicitly or in their likely mode of practice. …

The Equal Rights Amendment is Anti-Life and Anti-Women, by Emma Waters

By Emma Waters, CNSNews – So, why bring back the ERA now? The answer is simple. When the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in June, the justices certified that the U.S. Constitution doesn’t provide a right to abortion… Since then, those on the radical Left have worked tirelessly to enshrine abortion in federal regulations and state law. Of course, their goal is to find a “right” to abortion in the Constitution… This is where the Equal Rights Amendment comes in.

By Eric Sammons, Crisis Magazine – Early on in the declaration, the pope and the sheikh state that “In the name of God . . . [we] declare the adoption of a culture of dialogue as the path; mutual cooperation as the code of conduct; reciprocal understanding as the method and standard.” Does anything there catch your eye? If the pope and sheikh state together that they write “in the name of God,” then they imply that they believe in the same God . . . and their God has the same name. Yet Catholics believe that the “name” of God is “the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit”

Cancel Culture Good? Say What? by Michael Swartz

By Michael Swartz, Patriot Post – While the practice of attempting to shame people into compliance has been around forever, a relatively recent term for it is “cancel culture.” In modern history, those looking to “cancel” are generally the ones who would have been shunned and ignored in olden days because they’re advocating for people or issues that would offend the longstanding traditional Judeo-Christian worldview.

Defining Wokeness Down, by Douglas Andrews

By Douglas Andrews, Patriot Post – The once meaningful word “woke” has been appropriated from urban blacks by preening white leftists… The Left wrecks everything it touches.

By Mary Fanning, America Out Loud – The environmentally disastrous February 3, 2023 derailment in East Palestine, Ohio, of Norfolk Southern train 32N, transporting rail tanker cars filled with dangerous chemicals, has been compared to the 1986 Chernobyl radiation disaster in the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic… Ultimately, responsibility for the Chernobyl disaster lies at the feet of Soviet officials who controlled the nuclear plant and launched an immediate cover-up, and responsibility for the East Palestine disaster lies at the feet of the federal officials who regulate U.S. railroads …

“America Last!”, “Biden Is in Ukraine, Trump Is Heading to Ohio”: Strong Reaction to Secret Trip to Kyiv, by Kristinn Taylor

By Kristinn Taylor, Gateway Pundit – The U.S. woke up on the Washington’s Birthday holiday to news of Joe Biden’s secret trip to Ukraine. Reaction was strong among those opposed to Americans giving Ukraine a blank check to defend itself from Russia’s invasion while Biden allows the U.S. to be invaded at the southern border, with observations of “America last!” and ‘Biden is in Ukraine, Trump is heading to Ohio’. President Trump announced he will visit East Palestine, Ohio on Wednesday to support the people affected by the toxic train wreck earlier this month. While in Kyiv, Biden announced a new arms package for Ukraine.

Ukraine: Our $200 Billion Proxy War, by Douglas Andrews

By Douglas Andrews, Patriot Post – Anyone who’s been following the costly and creeping mission of our nation’s proxy war with Russia can see anew the great man’s wisdom where those final four words are concerned… Joe Biden has gotten us into an entangling alliance with Ukraine — a costly and dangerous one, with no end in sight… There’s also the matter of Ukraine being one of the world’s most corrupt countries. And it is. Just ask Hunter Biden. Ever wonder why there hasn’t been a strict accounting for all the billions we’re sending over there?

Research Continues to Pour In, Leaving Millions of Vaccinated Susceptible to Serious Diseases, by Dr. Joel S. Hirschhorn

By Dr. Joel S. Hirschhorn, America Out Loud – What most people have heard about deaths and illnesses caused by COVID vaccines is just the tip of the iceberg. Medical research articles keep rolling out on a host of health impacts from the vaccines. Here a number of new articles are cited to better reveal how unsafe the vaccines are… An important part of the message for the general population should be this. All the new research on vaccine impacts comes from just two years of vaccine use.

Where Do You Score on the Deep State/Aliens/World War III/Vaccine Insanity Test? by John Zmirak

By John Zmirak, The Stream – Now, in the service of sanity, virtue, and my own personal calling to red-pill the Body of Christ, I offer a quiz in that spirit, assessing how wisely each reader is interpreting controversial current events. Please answer honestly, tally your score, and see where you land on what psychologists nowadays call “the spectrum.” And don’t share your answers via electronic media because … oh, who am I kidding? The Deep State already knows who you are.

Wendy Davis Loses Bid to Overturn Texas Abortion Ban, by Micaiah Bilger 

By Micaiah Bilger, LifeNews – A federal judge just dismissed a lawsuit filed by Wendy Davis, an abortion activist and former Texas state senator, attempting to overturn the Texas heartbeat law… The pro-life law bans abortions once an unborn baby’s heartbeat is detectable, about six weeks of pregnancy, and allows private individuals to sue abortionists and others who aid and abet abortions in violation of the law.

Destroying Meritocracy Is Deadly, by Victor Davis Hanson

By Victor Davis Hanson, Patriot Post – Many of the major airlines have established racial and gender quotes for government pilot training programs… Since 2013, the FAA has been lowering standards for air traffic control qualifications to achieve de facto race and gender quotas… In testimony before Congress our top military brass has bragged not of their reduction in standards for enlistment, but of their “diversity” hiring, as they purportedly ferret out “white supremacy” and “white rage.”

Where the Hell Is Pothole Pete? by Douglas Andrews

By Douglas Andrews, Patriot Post – As for East Palestine, that’s where a Norfolk Southern train derailed back on February 3, apparently with 20 of its more than100 cars carrying carcinogenic vinyl chloride. The wreck caused these hazardous chemicals to spill into the ground and the subsequent “controlled burn” caused a gigantic plume of toxic smoke to rise into the air… Where was the nation’s transportation secretary during all this? Nowhere to be seen.

Weak Men Start Wars, and Strong Men Prevent Them, by Rob and Andrew

By Rob and Andrew, America Out Loud – During the four years, Donald Trump was president of the United States, not once did he get the country into a war with any of our adversaries. He didn’t even bring us to the brink of war with them… Albeit, many of Trump’s critics predicted and swore Trump would start a war with either Russia, China, Korea, or Iran, it simply didn’t happen. What did happen was peace through strength. Trump managed to keep rogue nations at bay and gain their respect and an understanding that if they acted against the United States, there would be a price to pay.

Shocking Cost of the Illegal Immigration Crisis on Americans, by Erin Dwinell

By Erin Dwinell, Daily Signal – As record numbers of illegal aliens continue to flood across our southern border, they are being dispersed into every congressional district in the country, making every state a border state… why do open-borders advocates ignore the enormous toll on Americans—on their wallets and in the overloaded emergency rooms, increased crime in their communities, and overcrowded classrooms for their children?

By Bob Unruh, World Net Daily – SCOTUS has decided to take another look at 2020 election-fraud claims, and it will only take four votes for the case to come under a full briefing and arguments schedule… A report from Just the News reveals the justices are to review a lawsuit charging that Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and others, including 291 members of the House and 94 senators “violated their oaths of office by refusing to investigate evidence of fraud in the 2020 election before certifying Biden as the winner.”

Podcast: Censorship is Not Just About Silencing Your Opponent, by Paul Engel

By Paul Engel, America Out Loud – The word of the day is “Censorship.” Most people seem to focus on the freedom of speech aspect of censorship, but that is only a small part of this particular evil. Censorship is not just about silencing your opponent; it’s about controlling them. It’s about manipulating people, gaslighting them into agreeing with you by preventing them from seeing the other side.

Social Security Reform About Principles, Not Accounting, by Star Parker

By Star Parker, CNSNews – The president who brought us Social Security, Franklin D Roosevelt, told the nation in his first inauguration in 1933, in the dark days of the depression, “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.”… Roosevelt gets high marks for courage and leadership. The problem was not that he was bold. The problem was what he did… Today, again, the nation badly needs bold leadership. And what needs to be done is undo the damage that Roosevelt did back then.

6 Reasons the Neocons in the West Wanted This War With Russia

By Frank Wright, LifeSiteNews – With no overall aim in sight it is difficult to make sense of the policy of the United States and its Western allies. Here is a brief overview of the chaos which has replaced the careful plans of our masters… Robert Kagan is one of the leading neoconservatives in the United States. His wife, Victoria Nuland, led the 2014 putsch in Ukraine which installed a neoliberal, Western-oriented government. He openly admits that Russia was provoked into invading Ukraine. Why would he say this?

8 Places To Start For The ‘Children First’ Agenda We Desperately Need, by Georgi Boorman

By Georgi Boorman, The Federalist – If there was any doubt that kids suffer when their own needs are subjugated to the fears and desires of adults, the Covid experience should have cast it out. For years, children en masse were put on the bottom of the priority list. Children are falling behind in education and key developmental milestones, mood disorders and loneliness are up, and suicide ideation has risen dramatically (including during the Covid era).

America’s Top Source of Imports in 2022 Governed by Genocidal, Communist Regime, by Terence P. Jeffrey

By Terence P. Jeffrey, CNSNews – Americans spent more money in 2022 buying imports from a country governed by a genocidal, communist regime… Specifically, U.S. imports from China last year equaled $536,754,100,000… Congress should pass legislation that gradually imposes a prohibitive tariff on all goods produced in the People’s Republic of China. When China stops committing genocide and establishes a government that respects the God-given rights of its people, that prohibitive tariff can be lifted and U.S. trade with China can resume.

Buttigieg Fiddles While East Palestine, Ohio Burns, by Douglas Andrews

By Douglas Andrews, Patriot Post – An awful train derailment in rural Ohio nearly two weeks ago doesn’t seem to have gotten the attention it deserves… It’s been nearly a decade since a runaway train hauling 72 tankers of crude oil derailed near the center of Lac-Mégantic, Quebec. The subsequent explosion and inferno pretty much wiped out the town and killed 47 of its 6,000 residents. And yet, rather remarkably, it ranks as only the fourth-deadliest railway disaster in Canadian history.

What’s Wrong With Nationalism? by Anthony Esolen

By Anthony Esolen. American Greatness – To what extent you can have a nation without a common or dominant religious faith is an anthropological question that Pope Francis, as far as I can gather, has not specifically asked, nor have Americans asked it in my lifetime. Some would gladly do away with both nationhood and religious faith, at one stroke, thinking to bring peace thereby. That would be a blank peace, in which no one fights because no one believes in anything anymore, or loves anything enough to fight for it; the peace of spiritual and cultural death. No true friend of man can desire it

Opinion: Ukraine: Our Elites Are Gaslighting Us to the Brink of Nuclear War, by Timothy Furnish

By Timothy Furnish, The Stream – The major flaw in the American treatment of Russia, since the end of the Cold War? An inability, or outright refusal, to grant any validity to Moscow’s perspective on security. True, Stalin did bring down an Iron Curtain after World War II. But only after the Nazis had killed 20 million Russians. And before that, there was Napoleon’s invasion, as well as others. Russia gets invaded. Repeatedly. The U.S. has never had such concerns.

Fr. Shenan J. Boquet: The Biden Admin and the Culture of Death

By Fr. Shenan J. Boquet, Human Life International – … Pres. Joe Biden used his State of the Union address to express his support once again for the culture of death… In his remarks, the president urged Congress to codify abortion access in law. “Congress must restore the right that was taken away in Roe v. Wade,” he said… “The VP and I are doing everything to protect access to reproductive healthcare and safeguard patient safety. But already, more than a dozen states are enforcing extreme abortion bans,” he added. He also vowed that if Congress were to pass a ban on abortion, “I will veto it.”

FBI Rescinds Leaked Anti-Catholic Internal Memo, by Emmy Griffin

By Emmy Griffin, Patriot Post – The memo cites the race-baiting extortionist Southern Poverty Law Center as a source… “Radical-traditionalist Catholic ideology” (RTC) was of interest to the FBI because, ostensibly, it posed an extremist threat. Special Agent Kyle Seraphin, who was suspended indefinitely from the bureau in June 2022, released an internal FBI memo that called Catholics who preferred the Latin Mass “anti-Semitic, anti-immigrant, anti-LGBTQ, and white supremacist,” which “almost certainly presents new mitigation opportunities.”

Government Hurts Poor People, by Daniel Mitchell

By Daniel Mitchell, CNSNews – It is hardly a revelation that bigger government causes problems, but it is particularly discouraging when such policies victimize the least fortunate members of society… I’m discussing this issue today because I recently discovered a 2018 article by Brian Balfour… Published by the Foundation for Economic Education, the article lists seven ways that government traps people in poverty.

The Essence of Freedom, by Bradley J. Birzer

By Bradley J. Birzer, The Imaginative Conservative – For nearly 3,000 years, we have asked and debated: what is the human person? What is the relationship of man to man; and what is God? Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Cicero, St. Augustine, St. Thomas Aquinas, and Thomas Jefferson were all concerned with these questions… What liberty allows, therefore, is moral agency; it is the willingness to take responsibility for one’s choices, for good and for ill. We must consider ourselves, importantly, morally capable and morally culpable.

Message to Yuval Noah Harari and the WEF – Individual Human Sovereignty Matters, by Peter Breggin MD & Ginger Breggin

By Peter Breggin MD & Ginger Breggin, America Out Loud – Ground yourself in the concepts of the value of the individual. Embrace the ideas of individual freedom, responsibility, and identity. Remind yourself of God; in His image, we have been made. Dust off a copy of the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Make these values a yardstick against which you can measure all that is happening or is planned to happen.

There’s No ‘Liberal’ or ‘Conservative’ in Catholicism, by Paul Murano

By Paul Murano, Church Militant – One of the more significant contemporary errors in religious discourse is the tendency to use political terms like “liberal” and “conservative.” These words have legitimate meaning for politics and government, but emphatically not for the One True Faith. A person is not a liberal or conservative Catholic, but is rather a faithful or unfaithful one. This is the only distinction that matters.

Crickets! Two Republican Lawmakers Assassinated in Two Weeks, by Kevin Tober 

By Kevin Tober, LifeNews – On Thursday, Fox News reported that a second Republican council member from New Jersey was assassinated in a little over a week… For all the leftist media’s crowing about “attacks on democracy,” you would think the three evening networks newscasts would be all over this story.

By Brenda Baletti, Ph.D., Children’s Health Defense – The CDC.. added the two-shot primary series mRNA COVID-19 vaccine to its routine immunization schedule for children and adults, formalizing the agency’s vaccine advisory committee’s unanimous recommendation made in October 2022… “Given all that we have learned about the dangers and ineffectiveness of COVID-19 shots over the last two years, it is horrifying to see the CDC now recommend this as a routine shot to children,” Mary Holland, Children’s Health Defense (CHD) president and general counsel told The Defender.

Righteous Tyrants, by Julie Kelly

By Julie Kelly, American Greatness – Our 21st-century tyrants possess nothing more than useless degrees from woke institutions and deep contempt for at least half the country, likely born out of a lifetime of social isolation. History, after all, shows that outcasts often seek revenge against their childhood tormentors later in life… Such appears to be the case with the former Twitter executives who testified before the House Oversight Committee on Wednesday.

The 15-Minute City: A Climate Solution? Or Just an ‘Excuse for More Control’? by Brenda Baletti, Ph.D.

By Brenda Baletti, Ph.D., Children’s Health Defense – Proponents of the “15-minute city” (supported by the World Economic Forum) say it will reduce emissions and improve residents’ quality of life… The “15-minute city” made headlines this month, spurred by controversy over plans by the U.K.’s Oxfordshire County Council to pilot “traffic filters” to reduce car use as part of the city of Oxford’s 2040 development strategy… Oxfordshire will be divided into six districts. Beginning in 2024, residents will be able to drive within their neighborhoods, but license plate recognition cameras will fine private cars £70 for passing a filter without a permit. …

Turns Out Biden Threatened Social Security, by Nate Jackson

By Nate Jackson, Patriot Post – So a senator put forward a controversial plan that “requires every program to be looked at freshly at least once every four years.”… That senator was Joe Biden and the year was 1975… It wasn’t just a one-off, either. Fast-forward to the 1990s and Biden did it again, clarifying, “I meant Social Security, as well. I meant Medicare and Medicaid. I meant veterans’ benefits.”

Father Dwight Longenecker: Tenderness Without Tyranny

By Fr. Dwight Longenecker, The Stream – When the tenderness tyrants take these steps they do so with a terrifying self-righteousness. The gas chambers are operated by people who believe they are doing something good. They are ridding the earth of the unworthy — those who dare to not be tender enough. If you think this is an exaggeration ask yourself about the attitude of those who already censor, use emotional blackmail and attempt to silence and exclude those who are deemed politically incorrect.

Twitter Execs Testify That Their Election-Meddling Decisions Were Even Flimsier Than Previously Claimed, by Margot Cleveland

By Margot Cleveland, The Federalist – When the NY Post dropped its bombshell reporting on documents recovered from Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop in October of 2020, Twitter did not reach out to the FBI to ask whether the reporting was Russian disinformation… according to testimony at Wednesday’s House Oversight Committee hearing, Twitter relied on the tweets of supposed experts, making the tech giant’s decision to censor the Post’s story even more outrageous.

Communism is a Religion, and It’s Rising Again From the Ashes, by Mark Judge

By Mark Judge, The Stream – I was wrong. I thought communism was dead… Communism in fact never died, despite the collapse of the Berlin Wall in 1989. In fact, communism may be the instrument that God uses to humiliate and purge a wicked, godless and liberal West… How I was so wrong about communism became clear when I recently read Arch. Fulton Sheen’s Communism and the Conscience of the West ….

Having The Courage! by Tom Renz, Esq.

By Tom Renz, Esq., America Out Loud – What is courage?… we have to understand that courage is not the absence of fear; rather, courage is the willingness to stand in the face of fear. Courage cannot exist absent fear, and so courage is an inherently difficult trait to demonstrate. It is only when we stand strong in the face of difficulties, the unknown, adversity, or pain that we show courage ….

By W. Aaron Vandiver, Children’s Health Defense – In Feb. 2022, 1,140 organizations sent Pres. Biden a letter urging him to declare a “climate emergency.” A group of U.S. Senators did the same, in October 2022, and a House bill, introduced in 2021, also called on the president to “declare a national climate emergency under the National Emergencies Act.”… Biden has … (so far) has declined, to the disappointment of many progressives… The United Nations (U.N.) has urged all countries to declare a climate emergency.

A Cure Worse than the Disease; Historic COVID Death Crossover, by Dr. Joel S. Hirschhorn

By Dr. Joel S. Hirschhorn, America Out Loud – Critical thinking is used to see the big picture that has profound importance… Though I take pride in focusing on data, sometimes it is critical to step back and identify the big-picture generalization that tells the most important story. A story that the public needs to be made aware of so that it better understands all the corruption and propaganda that has created the highest level of misinformation from official sources.

The Year America’s Basic Systems Started To Crumble, by Christopher Bedford

By Christopher Bedford, The Federalist – Far from the year America settled into ‘normalcy,’ 2022 was the year the basic systems we all count on started to break down… Chaos in Washington, madness at the airport, holiday hangovers: The first month of 2023 was familiar enough. What might seem less familiar to Americans, however, are the cracks appearing in our walls. ….

Our Nation’s Visa Program Is a Mess, by Lewis Morris

By Lewis Morris, Patriot Post – The Biden administration’s failed immigration policy is evident in more than just the additional 5.6 million illegal immigrants it has allowed to slip through our porous southern border in the last two years.

Fight for Speaker Pays Off as House Takes Big Step Toward Restoring Deliberative Government, by Jarrett Stepman

By Jarrett Stepman, CNSNews – These conservatives were able to extract several concessions from Republican leadership, including new rules that would allow for a longer review period before a scheduled vote, tighter controls on future taxes and spending, and an easier path to deposing a House speaker… One of the changes that’s had an immediate impact is the inclusion of more members of the House Freedom Caucus, made up of some of the chamber’s most conservative lawmakers, on the House Rules Committee. This led to additional changes in how the House functions.

America’s National Exorcism: How It’s Going So Far, by John Zmirak

By John Zmirak, The Stream – Fyodor Dostoevsky’s novel The Possessed (1872) tells us a story of reckless intellectuals, ungrounded in faith or reason, who turn their peaceful society into an apocalyptic nightmare. That Russian novelist wasn’t just depicting such an outcome… He was predicting it. Himself a recovering revolutionary, he saw that hunger for needed reforms had long ago curdled into pure, destructive fury — a gnostic hatred for the world as it existed, and hence the God who’d made it.

Getting Back to the Oath of Hippocrates is the Way Forward, by Dr. Marilyn M. Singleton

By Dr. Marilyn M. Singleton, America Out Loud – Written in about 400 B.C., the Oath of Hippocrates embodies the guiding ethical principles of the practice of medicine. The Oath focuses on individual physicians treating their individual patients. All of our actions must be for the benefit of the patient; we must keep all of their information — “holy secrets,” as the Oath states — confidential. Our duties attach whether the patients were “free or slaves.” If we actually paid attention to these principles, we would not need Big Brother’s rules.

The Blind Leading the Blind, by Roger Helle

By Roger Helle, Patriot Post – In just two years, Biden has been blind to every national security threat we’ve faced; or, even more scary, he chooses not to see how vulnerable we are to our enemies. Here are some highlights… Our southern border is gone. It’s not the least bit under control. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas should be impeached for his failure to keep us safe. It’s believed nearly five million illegal immigrants from nearly 160 countries have walked into the country. “Gotaways” are believed to be close to one million in just two years! We have two more years of this incompetence to go.

Bill Gates, After Reaping Huge $$$$ Selling BioNTech Shares, Trashes Effectiveness of COVID Vaccines, by Michael Nevradakis

By Michael Nevradakis, Ph.D., Children’s Health Defense – Bill Gates, long recognized as one of the world’s foremost proponents of vaccines, raised some eyebrows at a recent talk in Australia when he admitted there are “problems” with current COVID-19 vaccines… “We also need to fix the three problems of [COVID-19] vaccines.

They’re not broad, so when new variants come up you lose protection, and they have very short duration, particularly in the people who matter, which are old people.”

Every Dollar The U.S. Throws At Ukraine Zaps Resources From Our Own Depleted Military, by Tyler Stone

By Tyler Stone, The Federalist – Earlier this week, The New York Times reported on the Ukrainian government’s recent shake-up to fight corruption. “The dismissals appeared to reflect Mr. Zelensky’s goal of reassuring Ukraine’s allies — which are sending billions of dollars in military aid — that his government would show zero tolerance for graft as it prepares for a possible new offensive by Moscow,” according to the Times. Why did it take Volodymyr Zelensky 11 months to address the corruption issue? There have been signs of the problem for many months now.

Battle Stations! by Ron Helle

By Ron Helle, Patriot Post – “Battle stations, battle stations! All hands man your battle stations!”… Battle stations on a Naval vessel are serious business, and everyone is expected to do their part. Everyone has an assigned responsibility — it is an “all hands” effort to ensure the survival of the ship… Paul told the Corinthian believers to be alert to the actions of the enemy, “so that we would not be outwitted by Satan; for we are not ignorant of his designs” (2 Corinthians 2:11, ESV).

It’s Time For The Right To Make Art Great (And Beautiful) Again, by Elle Purnell

By Elle Purnell, The Federalist – Government buildings were once designed to reflect the noble expectations their architects had of the institutions those buildings housed.

Remembering 2020 Without Losing Hope, by Casey Chalk 

By Casey Chalk, Crisis Magazine – Do you remember January 2020? A U.S. airstrike on January 3 killed top Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani and others near Baghdad International Airport. Two weeks later, the House impeachment managers read aloud the impeachment articles against then President Trump… It was also the month that the Covid-19 outbreak was first declared a public health emergency by the World Health Organization.

‘Feminist’ and ‘Inclusive’ M&M’s Pulled After Heavy Criticism (With Satire), by Emmy Griffin

By Emmy Griffin, Patriot Post – M&M’s, the candy-coated chocolate, has a series of “spokescandies” that have been used to advertise the sweet treat. Over the course of last year, the spokescandies became increasingly woke, or, as Jane Hwang, global vice president of Mars, put it, “modern.” … This wokeification of candy has predictably sparked a lot of backlash from many people… The backlash was so severe that Mars decided to pull the M&M characters entirely. …

America Was Founded by Conspiracy Realists … Like Tucker Carlson, by John Zmirak

By John Zmirak, The Stream – And in fact, the United States of America was founded by patriots motivated by what their enemies dismissed as a paranoid fantasy: the fear that the British Parliament and monarchy were planning to strip the American colonists of their liberties, and rule them as virtual serfs.

The Looming Artificial Intelligence Crisis, by Eugene Gan 

By Eugene Gan, Crisis Magazine – WEF’s Yuval Noah Hararii, pro-transhumanist and lead advisor to Klaus Schwab, declared that humans are hackable. “Organisms are algorithms [to decipher]…once we have algorithms that can understand me better than I understand myself, they could predict my desires, manipulate my emotions, and even make decisions on my behalf.” “AI & bio-technology are giving us divine powers of creation and destruction,” Hararii asserted. We may soon need to defend not just the pro-life principle but the pro-human one as well.

While Some Are Blind, Others See Clearly, by Dr. Peter McCullough

By Dr. Peter McCullough, America Out Loud – Three years into the pandemic disaster, we can characterize what happened as two major waves of hardship. The SARS-CoV-2 outbreak and COVID-19 infection whose misery was compounded by 1) intentional suppression of early treatment protocols and impeded inpatient care management that lead to tens of millions of avoidable hospitalizations and deaths, respectively, 2) mass indiscriminate global vaccination with a menu of unsafe and ineffective COVID-19 vaccines that led to population-wide injuries, disabilities, and deaths.

Will The Right’s Next Pro-Life President Please Stand Up? by Jessica Kramer 

By Jessica Kramer, Crisis Magazine – Trump recently posted on social media: It wasn’t my fault that the Republicans didn’t live up to expectations in the MidTerms. I was 233-20!

Also, the people that pushed so hard, for decades, against abortion, got their wish from the U.S. Supreme Court, & just plain disappeared, not to be seen again. Plus, Mitch stupid $’s!

George Neumayr, RIP

By Rodney Pelletier, Church Militant – On Jan. 14, in his final article for The American Spectator, George wrote, “evangelicals are flourishing in large part because they cleave to a traditional, Biblical Christian spirituality that the Catholic Church under Pope Francis has abandoned.”… “There is no question that the evangelicals believe passionately in the divinity of Jesus Christ. To them, he is exactly what the Nicene Creed says: God from God, light from light, true God from true God.” He was also investigating the infiltration of Freemasonry into the African Church …

FLASHBACK: 50 Years of the Liberal Media’s Pro-Abortion Zealotry, by Rich Noyes

By Rich Noyes, Media Research Center – Fifty years ago this weekend, the Supreme Court’s Roe v.

Born-Alive Act Redux! by Hadley Arkes

By Hadley Arkes, The Catholic Thing – The Born-Alive Survivors of Abortion Protection Act, is not going to be enacted in this Congress. But it will have put a mark on the political terrain. The pro-life cause has been ill-served by having its public argument offered in the familiar script of conservative jurisprudence. And yet, through bumbling persistence, it has brought forth, in the House of Representatives, a group of pro-life politicians who somehow manage to do better than the legal professionals who have been presuming over the years to tutor them.

The World Economic Forum: Making the World Safe for Autocracy, by Thaddeus G. McCotter

By Thaddeus G. McCotter, American Greatness – Ultimately, the WEF’s hypocrisy, pomposity, and elitism is of a piece: the aspiring Lords of the Manor do not like the decisions we unruly peasants make. They believe it is their right and duty to make our decisions for us; and to parcel out liberty and prosperity to us according to their arbitrary and capricious whims. Their great “reset” is nothing but a regressive autocratic agenda to reinstitute feudalism. Why would free people cede their liberty and prosperity to this self-anointed new nobility?

Who knew the Gulf of Mexico had become a bubbling cauldron?

The Leftist Media Isn’t Just Wrong; It’s Evil, by Rich Kozlovich

By Rich Kozlovich, America Out Loud – Even fifty years ago, it was evident to those who read a lot that a small group of influential people was actually controlling everything we read in the newspapers. But when one keeps seeing the same stories being reported on, much of it originating with the AP and UP International, and a couple of others, you have to wonder why they weren’t covering other events going on in the world… Events those who read knew were happening and clearly being ignored.

By Michael Nevradakis, Ph.D., Children’s Health Defense – In a groundbreaking ruling, the NY State Supreme Court on Jan. 13 struck down the state’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate for healthcare workers, declaring it “null, void, and of no effect” and holding that the NY State Department of Health lacked the authority to impose the mandate… the court ruled that the state’s mandate was “arbitrary and capricious” on the basis that COVID-19 vaccines do not stop transmission of the virus, thereby eliminating any rational basis for such a policy.

By Steve Kirsch, Substack – In the October 2022 version of the FAA Guide for Aviation Medical Examiners, the FAA quietly widened the EKG parameters beyond the normal range (from a PR max of .2 to unlimited). And they didn’t widen the range by a little. They widened it by a lot.

Not just a few pilots. A lot of pilots and a lot of damage.

Inaction of the Bishops Has Allowed ‘Catholics’ to Lead the Pro-Abortion Movement for Decades, by Chris Manion

By Chris Manion,  The Wanderer – 50 years ago… a group of radicals founded “Catholics for a Free Choice” in Washington, D.C.

The Democrat Collapse Is Coming, by George McClellan

By George McClellan, America Out Loud – Now, they waste their time and energy trying to exculpate senile ol’ Joe, insisting that Trump still remains the greatest danger to American democracy. It’s too late; the damage is done. People are losing their faith in government, and with every stumble the Democrats make in their attempt to end Trump’s career, the growing outrage against their conspiracies against him, the “Wokeism” transgenderism, perversion, and CRT indoctrination being forced upon our little children, will spark a real insurrection against the Left that could end their prospects for a century.

Erasing Poor White Children From the Past and Present, by Sarah Cain

By Sarah Cain, Crisis Magazine – A new audiobook is being feverishly promoted by Amazon’s bottomless wallet, a familiar classic with an unexpected twist. It’s the iconic Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens, yet the artwork and accompanying promotional materials reveal that this young Oliver is black… As the academic and cultural elites would tell it, history is a tale of oppression, and the Haves and Have-Nots are readily discernible, for they can be recognized on racial grounds. Thus, white children have a myriad of opportunities and are reducible to their race alone as a descriptor of their personhood.

By Enabling Leftist Misinformation, Twitter Helped Democrats And Their Media Allies Peddle Another Russia Hoax, by Margot Cleveland

By Margot Cleveland, The Federalist – By keeping quiet about ASD’s “flawed methodology,” as Twitter framed it, the tech giant allowed Democrat politicians and the press to push yet another Russia hoax. And as Nunes told The Federalist, in spreading the Russia hoax, “Democrat members of Congress were not legislating in the public interest, the media was not honestly informing the public, and the intelligence community was not defending Americans against foreign adversaries.” Instead, they all “melded into a giant, hideous propaganda apparatus with the single goal of deceiving the American people into believing something that wasn’t true.”

Will January 6 Be the New July 4 for Our Descendants? by John Zmirak

A new set of harshly coercive laws imposed by the British Parliament.

What’s Up With Social Security? by Brian Mark Weber

By Brian Mark Weber, Patriot Post – As our own Nate Jackson wrote back in November: “The glaring irony is that Social Security and Medicare are in trouble if they’re not touched. … Despite the bill of goods sold by DC politicians about all the money you paid into these programs, that money is long gone. Current workers are paying current retirees, and the ratio of workers to retirees isn’t anywhere near as favorable as it was when Swamp dwellers started raiding that ‘lock box.’”

On Classified Documents, Joe Biden Is Out Of Excuses, by David Harsanyi

By David Harsanyi, The Federalist – Right now, none of the rationalizations offered by the media for Biden’s actions over the past few days are operational. When the story first broke, outlets stressed that one of the vital “distinctions” between the two incidents was that Biden was in possession of fewer documents than Trump. Biden aides, we learned, had been utterly shocked to discover only a “small number” of classified documents “locked” in the personal offices of the president’s “think tank” — as if the location or the number of documents, or the alleged lock, rather than the contents, were the most newsworthy aspect of the story.

210 Democrats Voted to Deny Medical Care to Babies Who Survive Abortions, by Steven Ertelt

By Steven Ertelt, LifeNews – In an annoyingly close vote, the House approved new legislation that would stop infanticide and protect babies who survive abortion. This is a similar measure to one that pro-abortion former Speaker Nancy Pelosi blocked 80 times when she ran the House… The Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act requires that, when a baby is born alive following an abortion, health care practitioners must exercise the same degree of professional skill and care that would be offered to any other child born alive at the same gestational age.
