A predictable reaction to the horrible murder of Charlie Kirk among legacy media outlets has been to condemn the ugly tenor of America’s political debate and call for a timeout. On its face, the plea sounds reasonable enough, but it rests on the false idea of both-sidesism, as if left and right are equally to blame for the frightening rise of political violence. Count that as another Big Media lie and a repugnant effort to obscure the actual source and motivation of the assassination scourge. There are not two sides contributing to the horror and equally responsible for it. The...

Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin Tyler Robinson was “full of hate” in the days before the shooting, according to a family friend, as authorities revealed the 22-year-old had confessed to the assassination and had been turned in by a relative.

Catch!” and another referencing “Oh, Bella Ciao!” a popular Italian anti-fascist song.

A courageous young woman at the University of North Texas (UNT) is speaking out after being mocked, harassed, and removed from class for defending the late conservative icon Charlie Kirk, just hours after his shocking assassination during a live campus debate. Mary Catherine, a student at UNT, shared her powerful testimony on TikTok, describing the disturbing experience she endured in her quantitative methods class, where she says classmates not only celebrated Kirk’s death but cheered the brutal act as they passed around the assassination video. She says the students even began wishing the same fate on President Donald Trump and...

If we can measure the magnitude of the fall by the spiritual dignity of the ones falling and the degree of the harms caused, the post-Vatican II crisis is arguably worse than any in history except those caused by the fall...

You were right mama, but the way you handled...

Denver Parishioners Worry About 'Psychological Safety' Because Their Priest Is Actually CatholicThis writer spent a lot of time writing about the late Pope Francis and his attacks on Catholic traditionalists and the suppression of the Latin Mass. It was -- and remains -- a gross injustice in the Catholic Church, especially because the attacks on the Latin Mass were based on lies.... The push by some to make the Catholic Church 'modern' and 'relevant' to the current culture has turned some parishes into bastions of what this writer calls 'morally therapeutic deism' as opposed to, you know, Catholic Churches.What does...

The first Cracker Barrel opened in 1969 in Lebanon, Tennessee, complete with gas pumps, a concept founder Dan W. Evins hoped would help expand his family's oil business and better serve tourists who were traveling down the interstates and highways. Eventually, all the gas pumps were phased out and the restaurant focused on what it had become known for: down-home country cooking with a southern flair. And it's been a success ever since. Fans are very passionate about Cracker Barrel. They've won the "Best Family Dining" restaurant award time and again, and people make comments on Yelp like, "Great home...

While babies are undeniably cute, they aren't too bright. Yet, despite being unable to talk or poo on a potty, babies are still significantly smarter than today's liberals. Here are ten ways babies are outpacing the libs: They instinctively know only mommy has breasts: First point goes to the babies. They firmly refused to wear government-mandated face masks: Babies follow the science.

Human relationships are so easy, why shouldn’t the words for them be just as simple? English has words for numerous family relationships but, unfortunately for us, most of them are gendered. To solve this, we created a list of gender-neutral relationship terms (words and phrases) covering all major cases and based on Universal English. Some of these gender-neutral family terms will sound awesome, some won’t resonate at all but, as always, we’re open to suggestions. If you have better ideas, let me know.
