Congressman Eli Crane Calls on Voters to Let Mayorkas-Supporting Representatives Know How They Feel [VIDEO]

A little-known judicial advocacy organization funded by left-wing nonprofits is quietly training judges nationwide on preparing for cases related to climate change, according to a Fox News Digital review. The Washington, D.C.-based Environmental Law Institute (ELI) created the Climate Judiciary Project (CJP) in 2018, establishing a first-of-its-kind resource to provide “reliable, up-to-date information” about climate change litigation, according to the group. The project’s reach has extended to various state and federal courts, including powerful appellate courts, and comes as various cities and states pursue high-profile litigation against the oil industry. “As the body of climate litigation grows, judges must consider...

Palestinian terrorists opened fire on bystanders at the gas station below the town in Samaria. One Palestinian terrorist was “neutralized” in a firefight and security personnel were searching for two accomplices. The masked terrorists were armed with M16 assault rifles. They abandoned a vehicle (knives were found inside) but may have fled in a second one. The attack took place at the entrance to a restaurant at a gas station on Route 60 located below Eli, which is north of Ramallah and south of Nablus (Shechem

he Defense Ministry declared that Eli resident Yaron Gispin's death in 2009 was terrorism and not a suicide. In 2009, Gispin was found dead in a deserted area near his hometown of Eli, where he lived with his wife and six children. Police had determined that his death was a suicide, noting that he was shot with his own pistol. The decision to classify Gispin's death as a suicide distressed his wife Iris, who launched a protracted legal and battle to convince authorities that he had been killed. According to Iris, Gispin had not had any financial difficulties and did...

A Picture of a Prophet - A Homily for the Second Sunday of the Year Msgr. Charles Pope • January 13, 2018 • The Calling of Samuel, by Joshua ReynoldsThe first reading for Sunday Mass speaks to us of the call of Samuel. In examining it, we can see what it is that makes a great prophet. Put more theologically, we can see the ways in which God’s graces form a great prophet.Samuel was surely one of the most significant prophets of the Old Testament and lived at a critical time, as Israel shifted from the time of the...

Since apparently there is nothing more pressing than stressing over “proper” language, administrators at Yale are pondering eliminating the term “freshman” and replacing it with non-gendered “first-year.” “I think there comes a time when you want to make sure that the way you’re calling things reflects the values that you have,” said Dean of Student Affairs Camille Lizarríbar, who is “leading the conversation” on the issue. The Yale Daily News reports Lizarríbar said college officials have been considering the change for some time now, adding that other Ivy League schools have already made the switch. Yale College Dean Jonathan Holloway...

Two terrorists broke into the community of Eli, located in the Mateh Binyamin region, early Wednesday morning, where they attacked one of the local residents with a knife and clubs before fleeing the scene. The lightly wounded man was evacuated to the Shaare Zedek Hospital in Jerusalem with cuts in the head. Security forces who were called to the scene located the two terrorists a short time later and killed them. Forces then conducted large searches to make sure no additional terrorists were present. During the searches a handgun was found outside the town on the path the terrorists used...

It will be the most powerful laser ever created, and could give researchers incredible new insights into how the cosmos was created. Called the High-Repetition-Rate Advanced Petawatt Laser System (HAPLS), it will emit 100,000 times more power than all the power stations in the world - for a tiny fraction of a second. It has even been nicknamed the Death Star laser for its similarity to Darth Vader's laser wielding base in Star Wars. he Extreme Light Infrastructure (ELI) Beamlines project is an EU-funded lab being developed with experts from around the world, including Lawrence Livermore lab in the US,...

In the First Book of Samuel which we are reading now in daily Mass, we see are rather stunning portrait of poor parenting and poor priestly leadership in the person of of High Priest of the Sanctuary at Shiloh, Eli. Consider this line from the Scriptures: Samuel was sleeping in the temple of the LORD where the ark of God was. The LORD called to Samuel, who answered, “Here I am.” Samuel ran to Eli and said, “Here I am. You called me.”“I did not call you,” Eli said. “Go back to sleep.” …..At that time Samuel was not familiar...

Dear FRiends on the Religion Forum. Having discussed, debated, shared, and kidded with many of you for years, I now ask you to join with me in praying for my grandson, Eli. Eli is 3 and has been diagnosed with Stage 4 Neuro Blastoma, a cancer unique to little ones. While his parents have been told the success rate is 4 out of 10, we, as believers in Christ, wish to be faithful and trust Jesus who says, "Let the little ones come unto me." We earnestly ask you to join us in prayer, and bring him before our Lord...

Hollywood continues its fascination with anything apocalyptic as evidenced in “The Book of Eli.”Brought to the screen by the same tandem who delivered the Jack the Ripper murders movie “From Hell”—brothers Allen and Albert Hughes—the Denzel Washington starrer is “I Am Legend” (2007) meets “The Road” (2009), with a religious, spiritual twist. First few minutes into the film and viewers will quickly see similarities with Will Smith’s blockbuster hit, including the wide angle view of an abandoned city—with barren cars, desiccated roads… all rendered in light sepia.And like Robert Neville, Eli (Denzel’s name in the movie, which is not mentioned...

Cross I Am Legend with The Ten Commandments and you’ve got The Book of Eli, a genuinely religious parable that inherently rebukes pointless end-of-the-world movies like The Road. This time there’s a purpose to the post-apocalypse: Eli (Denzel Washington), one of humanity’s survivors, is heeding the word of the Lord to protect the world’s only remaining Bible and bring its teachings to the West. The Book of Eli works just fine as an action blockbuster, but it’s much more than that. Eli, who can smell lurking “highjackers” determined to rob and kill him long before they get close, is fierce...

As a lone man in a desolate world, Denzel Washington carries the future of humanity on his shoulders: The Book of Eli trailer.

Hard pounding, gentlemen: but we shall see who can pound the longest.- Arthur Wellesley. Duke of Wellington at the Battle of Waterloo by Bill Levinson Editor's note: The difference between 400 GB and 800 GB of “bandwidth” per month at my service provider is about $10/month. GB is GIGA-bytes. A gigabyte is 1 billion bytes. An average blog/message board web page is 150 KB — 150 kilobytes. A kilobyte is 1000 bytes. So they’re saying the Democratic Party, with millions in its war chest, can’t spend $20.00 over the next two months for 5,333,333 (that’s 5.3 MILLION) page hits? Yeah,...

This hasn't been the happiest NFL season so far. Katrina. New Orleans. The Superdome. Thomas Herrion. Wellington Mara. Lake Minnetonka. Ken Hamlin. Mike Martz. Dwayne Carswell. Owens-McNabb. The ongoing subplot of Tom Benson possibly abandoning New Orleans and moving the Saints to San Antonio, the equivalent of somebody's wife getting into a debilitating car accident, then her husband filing for divorce while she's still in the hospital. By the way, we're only in Week 8. So that part has been a little sobering. As for the actual games, can you remember this many yellow flags, late-game screw-ups, coaching brain farts,...

Last Sunday, I picked up a copy of Boston Magazine while sitting in the green room at the Fox News studios in Watertown, Mass. Leafing through the publication, I came across an article titled "Confessions of an Ivy League Callgirl," written by Jeannette Angell, a university lecturer with a master's degree from Yale. The fact that she was a Yalie caught my eye -- as a Harvard Law student, I've already adopted our communal animosities -- and so I read the piece.  Apparently, Angell began trading sex for cash after receiving her doctorate in social anthropology. But what was shocking...

The Houston police officer who shot 14-year-old Eli Escobar was indicted for murder Wednesday. Officer A.J. Carbonneau turned himself in early Wednesday night and has already bonded out. He argued his gun accidentally fired during a struggle with 14-year-old Eli Escobar. And late Wednesday a grand jury disagreed. It charged him with murder following last November's deadly incident outside an apartment complex in the 3100 block of Mangum. Carbonneau claimed the teen kicked him in the groin during a criminal mischief call, so he drew his pistol. That, the officer says, is when he was kicked in the arm causing...
