    President Joe Biden addressed the issue of inflation in the US, blaming corporations for price gouging and high prices, while introducing a new government measure to control the economy. Experts have criticized Biden’s statement, in that he has no experience in the private sector and is not taking responsibility for the inflation caused by the government’s incredible spending spree. “Let me be clear: To any corporation that has not brought their prices back down — even as inflation has come down, even as supply chains have been rebuilt — it’s time to stop the price gouging, giving the American consumer...

    On Thursday’s broadcast of “CNN News Central,” Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) stated that Hunter Biden “has tried to accept responsibility” for the criminal charges that his counsel recently failed to reach a plea deal that was accepted by the courts with federal prosecutors on. Co-host John Berman asked, “Do you think that a plea deal like that would have existed had it been for Hunter Brown instead of Hunter Biden?”

    Former President Donald Trump is acknowledging that his not-yet-launched 2024 presidential bid would not include his former vice president. Trump told the Washington Examiner his hypothetical run for re-election would most likely not select former Vice President Mike Pence as his running mate. "I don't think the people would accept it," Trump said, alluding to his supporters' anger with Pence for failing to support Trump's false claim he actually won the 2020 race. Trump wanted Pence to somehow overturn the election's results during the congressional certification of the Electoral College votes, notes the Examiner, but Pence explained he didn't have...

    Gov. Brian Kemp on Tuesday criticized the “failure” to prevent the collapse of the U.S.-backed government in Afghanistan and suggested that Georgia was ready to take in some refugees following the repressive Taliban regime’s swift takeover of the country. Kemp said in a statement that “it is vitally important to keep those who partnered with American armed forces over the last 20 years safe from harm.” Republican governors in Maryland, Massachusetts, Utah and South Carolina have expressed willingness to accept refugees, as have a number of Democratic leaders. And top GOP contenders in Georgia’s 2022 contests have also called for...

    MSNBC “Morning Joe” host Joe Scarborough on Friday delivered a long-winded rant directed at Republicans for continuing to not accept the 2020 presidential election results. After noting Republicans take exception to people disrespecting the American flag by kneeling for the anthem but not what the flag stands for itself, a screaming Scarborough urged those who still think the election was rigged to “just get the hell out.”

Researchers from the University of Bonn said that humans tend to be generally kinder to friends and family than strangers. “Given the right circumstances, oxytocin may help promote the acceptance and integration of migrants into Western cultures.” The suggestion that Westerners should be given drugs to make them more welcoming to foreigners is likely...
  • Does Pope Francis accept this truth?

    The Holy Spirit assures us, through the Apostle St. Paul, that Christ is the head of the body which is the Church, while we are the members that suffer together and rejoice together: "If one member suffers, all suffer together; if one member is honoured, all rejoice together." (1 Corinthians 12: 26). Which makes it all the more disturbing that Pope Francis, before his election to the Chair of Peter, asserted that private homosexual unions do not affect third parties or society in general. The Catechism of the Catholic Church explains that, "..In the sanctorum communio, 'None of us lives...

    The planned unveiling in London of a memorial to the 55,573 Royal Air Force Bomber Command airmen killed in World War II has sparked muted criticism in Germany, where many regard the Allied air raids that destroyed entire cities and killed over 500,000 civilians as unjustified and criminal. Helma Orosz, the mayor of Dresden, which was devastated in an Allied attack in February 1945, criticized the plans for the monument when they first became public in 2010, and spoke to London Mayor Boris Johnson about it. "The planned memorial triggered astonishment in Dresden and was judged critically by us in...

    A top Palestinian official said Wednesday that President Mahmoud Abbas would accept no political delays on his bid for membership in the United Nations, rejecting mounting pressure from the United States and France to first return to negotiations with Israel. The Palestinians plan to submit their letter of application on Friday when Abbas is to speak to the U.N. General Assembly, but he faced a withering lack of support as the world body opened its annual meeting. President Barack Obama said there could be no "shortcuts" in the quest for Middle East peace, a message that was echoed by French...

    Long Lay the world, in sin and error pining, till He appeared…”What a contrast this Christmas season presents to us this year. Anywhere I look , I see the most beautiful, serene snowfall I can ever remember seeing. The huge flakes float from the silk gray clouds against a backdrop of bare trees, an empty barn ,and open fields. The hush is surreal, it seems holy as does the pure white background which puts the bare trees in stark relief.I am living in a setting out of a Robert Frost poem.* Yet in spite of the beauty and serenity of...

    An Augusta State University counseling student has filed a lawsuit against her school claiming it violated her First Amendment rights when it told her to change her traditionalist Christian views on homosexuality or get out. The Alliance Defense Fund filed suit Wednesday on behalf of Jennifer Keeton, 24, seeking to stop the school from expelling her from her master’s degree program. “They made a cascading series of presumptions about the kind of a counselor she would be and have consequently … tried to force her to change her beliefs,”

    WASHINGTON (AP) -- The No. 2 Senate Democrat accused Republicans on Wednesday of refusing to accept the finality of health care changes, a day after President Barack Obama signed the most sweeping medical system remake since Medicare. "This is a political exercise for too many on the other side of the aisle," said Sen. Dick Durbin. "We're going to tell our people back home, 'It's time to govern. It's time to lead.' "

    A new Rasmussen poll reveals that just 34 percent of Americans believe that warming trends are caused by human activity, while nearly half believe they are simply planetary fluctuations. This is the most successful disinformation campaign in the history of the world (it's largely financed by fossil fuel companies). There is virtual scientific unanimity on the issue: Natural planetary trends alone cannot account for the rapid changes we are currently witnessing. (CNN: 97 percent of climate scientists believe human activity is a key factor in rising temperatures.) What's particularly amazing about these results are that those who don't accept human-caused...

    (AP) A national assembly of Evangelical Lutherans urged its bishops Saturday to refrain from defrocking gay and lesbian ministers who violate a celibacy rule, but rejected measures that would have permitted ordaining gays churchwide. Still, advocates for full inclusion of gays were encouraged, calling the resolution a powerful statement in support of clergy with same-gender partners. The conservative group Lutheran CORE, however, said bishops will now feel more secure in ignoring denomination policy. The 538-431 vote came on the final day of a weeklong meeting in Chicago _ and after emotional debate over how the denomination should interpret what the...

    The Marine Reserves' Toys for Tots program has decided to accept a donation of talking Jesus dolls for gifts, changing course on a decision earlier this week to not accept them. "The talking Jesus doll issue has been resolved," the Marine organization announced on its Web site Wednesday. "Toys for Tots has found appropriate places for these items. We have notified the donor of our willingness to handle this transaction." Earlier this week, the program declined a suburban Los Angeles company's offer to donate 4,000 of the foot-tall dolls, which quote Bible verses. The battery-powered Jesus is one of several...

    Citing the words of the Prophet Muhammad, Muslim religious leaders in the Gaza Strip on Sunday warned Pope Benedict XVI that he must "accept" Islam if he wanted to live in peace. The warning, the first of its kind, came as many Christians in the West Bank expressed anger over a spate of attacks on churches in protest against remarks made by the pope about the Muslims and the Prophet Muhammad. Two more churches in the West Bank were targeted on Sunday in protest against the pope's remarks, bringing to seven the number of churches that have been attacked over...

    No longer fighting his endorsement, Republican conservative activists will settle for airing their opposition to Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's bond, budget and minimum-wage proposals and raise questions about his judicial appointments at the upcoming GOP state convention. The conservative California Republican Assembly had been pushing the party to drop its endorsement of Schwarzenegger over his appointment of longtime Democratic stalwart Susan Kennedy as his chief of staff. CRA President Mike Spence said his group still wants Kennedy to resign. But CRA board members voted over the weekend to "suspend" the move to pull the endorsement, in part because state Sen. Tom...
