Why Are the Packers Helping to Fill Planned Parenthood’s Baby Parts Coolers? by John Zmirak

By John Zmirak, The Stream - Pro-Life Wisconsin and other pro-life supporters are criticizing the Green Bay Packers Foundation for a grant it made to Planned Parenthood Wisconsin Inc. in Milwaukee, one of 192 grants made as part of its annual program… The issue blew up after word of the grant, made earlier in December, began circulating among pro-life supporters. Dan Miller, executive director of Pro-Life Wisconsin, said his organization is opposed to money going to Planned Parenthood “ever, at any time.”… “(The Packers) have stood for wonderful things, but this is not something that’s wonderful. Planned Parenthood is an abortion provider,” Miller said Wednesday. “We’re outraged. We’d like an explanation.”

Moynihan Letter #65, 2019: Viganò on Francis and Mary

By Dr. Robert Moynihan, PhD, Moynihan Letters - Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò (Dec. 19) published a brief but dramatic essay entitled “An Act of Accusation against Pope Francis and of Love for the Church” in which he sharply criticizes some of the recent statements of Pope Francis in regard to the Virgin Mary, and then condemns the “ambiguous” and “modernist” teachings of the present pontiff… The essay seems clearly in part a response to remarks Pope Francis made about Mary on December 12, the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe… In other words, Viganò felt impelled to write this essay by his own “Marian” devotion, feeling that Pope Francis a few days ago had somehow slighted the Blessed Virgin, somehow offered an offense to her great dignity, in remarks the Pope made in St. Peter’s Basilica on December 12.

Is Impeachment Backfiring on Democrats? by Patrick J. Buchanan

By Patrick J. Buchanan, CNSNews - Majority Leader Mitch McConnell took to the floor both Wednesday night and Thursday morning. To have the Senate, which is judge and jury of the impeachment charges, start calling witnesses whom House prosecutors failed to pursue "could set a nightmarish precedent."… Said McConnell, Schumer "would apparently like our chamber to do House Democrats' homework for them."… Schumer's plea for new witnesses is an admission that the House's case for impeaching Trump is inadequate and deficient and could prove wholly noncredible to the American people. After all, if you need more witnesses, you probably do not have the smoking gun.
