Babylon Is Falling, by Anthony Esolen

By Anthony Esolen, Crisis Magazine - As the plague in Europe had its occasional years of acute virulence, so in the United States the election season is upon us again. And as the plague arrived in 1348 and would not be eliminated for five hundred years, and Europe was more or less always beset by plague, so the United States is now always in electoral dysfunction. And just as hanging posies around your neck did not help then, so the sweet platitudes of democratic procedure do not help now. For our problem is not procedural.

AG William Barr: ‘Sanctuary’ Policies Are Unconstitutional, Discriminatory, by Neil Munro

By Neil Munro, Breitbart - “Let us state the reality upfront and as clearly as possible,” AG William Barr told the National Sheriffs’ Assoc. meeting in D.C. on February 10: When we are talking about sanctuary cities, we are talking about policies that are designed to allow criminal aliens to escape. These policies are not about people who came to our country illegally but have otherwise been peaceful and productive members of society. Their express purpose is to shelter aliens whom local law enforcement has already arrested for other crimes. This is neither lawful nor sensible… It is not lawful because the Constitution vests the federal government with the sole authority to make and enforce immigration law.

A Pastor’s Urgent Plea — How Trump Could Lose in 2020, by Shane Idleman

By Shane Idleman, The Stream - The 2016 election caught Democrats off guard, but they won’t let that happen again. My concern is that the 2020 election will catch Republicans off guard this time. Complacency may lead to apathy when the economy is good and the president’s approval rating is high. We can’t become comfortable thinking that Trump will easily take it again… If God wants Trump re-elected, as I’m convinced is the case, He wants us to trust in Him, not in opinion polls and the economy. Be clear on this: amid voter fraud, ballot harvesting, and media giants railing against Trump, only a sovereign act of God can bring about a re-election.
