Yesterday the Joe Biden campaign crashed like a drunken Humpty Dumpty falling off a wall. As it lie in pieces, rotting on the ground, I watched in horror as the Democrat’s pet press carefully reassembled the pieces with fake news glue. And it might be working!It all started at a campaign event in Iowa, when Joel Pollack of Breitbart News asked Biden if he was aware that the central theme of his campaign was built on a lie. It turns out Biden was not aware of that. Or possibly he decided to defend his mistake anyway, because politics. But either...

President Trump on Friday defended the raids carried out by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) this week in Mississippi, calling them "a very good deterrent." Trump told reporters at the White House that the raids dissuade immigrants from entering and residing in the country illegally. “I want people to know that if they come into the United States illegally, they’re getting out. They’re going to be brought out. And this serves as a very good deterrent," he said. ICE agents arrested roughly 680 people in Wednesday's raids, which targeted workers in poultry processing plants. Around 300 detainees were released Thursday....

If abortion is made illegal, it will still happen anyway.” That’s the claim commonly made by abortion advocates when politicians speak of restricting or criminalizing abortion. But the fact that abortion is legal in society — and presented as an “easy” solution to an unplanned pregnancy — has made many people view it as more acceptable. Legality frequently equates to morality in people’s minds. The question is, would women who choose legal abortion truly still choose it if it were made illegal? We can’t know for sure. But we can find out if those who chose it would have chosen...

Somebody forgot to tell MSNBC analyst Karine Jean-Pierre that the liberal media aren't supposed to openly admit — let alone celebrate — the fact that they're united in opposition to President Trump. Thursday on Deadline White House, host Nicolle Wallace noted that all the Dem presidential candidates are "singing from one song sheet" in attacking Trump. As an example, she cited Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and former Congressman Beto O'Rourke (TX) both calling Trump a "white supremacist." Jean-Pierre, who in addition to her MSNBC gig is a MoveOn.org spokesperson, then said: And there's another thing too, I think the media...

ESSENTIALLY YOU HAVE ONE GUY TRYING TO HOLD BACK THE COMMUNIST FLOOD of “Free-Everything-for-Everybody.” One guy, battling enraged democrat candidates, and mad-dog democrats-at-large, and violent democrat street gangs. You have this same one guy—President Donald Trump—trying to drain an entire decayed swamp by himself, with half the Planet (Earth) gyrating to shut him down, take him out, or maybe even kill him. Because: 1.) Trump interferes with their profit margin. 2.) Trump interferes with their goals of Communist Supremacy In One World, under Their self-aggrandizing One Rule. 3.) Trump makes them feel “uncomfortable.” Democrats have been at war with us...

AddThis Sharing Buttons Share to Tumblr TumblrShare to FacebookFacebookShare to More More350 The Thomas More Society law firm based in Chicago intends to fight Illinois’ sweeping new abortion law — and this week, the firm held a webcast laying out plans to do just that. But beyond this plan, what was presented is nothing short of shocking; the new Illinois Reproductive Health Act (RHA) stipulates that even 911 call records to abortion facilities will no longer be accessible to the public under the Freedom of Information Act — deliberately hiding information on the dangers of abortion from the public. In...

Posted on August 8, 2019August 8, 2019 by Msgr. Charles Pope What Was Moses’ Sin? At Thursday’s daily Mass (Thursday of the 18th week of the year) we read of the sin that excluded Moses from leading the people to the Promised Land. While there are some mysterious elements to it, one thing seems clear: the grumbling of the people got on Moses’ nerves. Indeed, grumbling often affects more than just the one doing the complaining. Through it, infectious negativity can be set loose. Even if only a small number are grousing, it can still incite discontent, anger, and/or...

A father of five who staunchly supported immigrants died when his motorcycle reportedly was hit by a Salvadoran motorist who sought sanctuary from deportation seven months ago in a Colorado Springs church. Sean Buchanan’s family grieved his death Thursday and the tragic irony of an Aug. 2 wreck that involved a member of the very community Buchanan so ardently supported. “Sean was an advocate for people who were trying to get into our country. He was a huge advocate,” said Amy Savage, a close family friend, standing in the family’s garage. “He just was a man who loved and accepted...

[Catholic Caucus] Pope Francis and Criminal Omission The Pope knows he's guilty A divorced woman with two teenage children remarried a man who in time started sexually abusing her daughter. Even though the daughter informed the mother of the abuse, the mother did nothing. When the daughter revealed the abuse to one of her high school teachers, it led not only to the arrest of her stepfather, but it also resulted in the mother losing custody of her daughter.  The abuse the daughter experienced in this case is similar to the sex abuse of many minors, seminarians and young adults in the Catholic Church. Unfortunately, most Church officials who failed to investigate and report clerical sex abuse continue to...

This threatening, hateful voicemail was left for a Trump supporter in Texas after @JulianCastro 's campaign chairman posted the supporter's personal information online. Intimidation and threats are exactly what Castro wanted when he posted this target list. **language warning**

U.S. mortgage rates may be low, but they're likely even more attractive to homebuyers in Denmark. Danish 20-year fixed-rate mortgage loans just hit a new low: Zero.

Friday, August 9, 2019 WASHINGTON, D.C. - Yesterday, Senator Rick Scott sent a letter to Attorney General William Barr urging him to seek answers from Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Christopher Wray. Senator Scott has been seeking information on what steps the FBI has taken to address critical deficiencies in its handling of actionable intelligence on the perpetrators of acts of mass violence in Florida, including the tragic shootings at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School and Pulse Nightclub. This letter follows an inadequate response from the FBI to Senator Scott's continued requests for this information.

An elderly couple in Washington state was found dead in their home in an apparent murder-suicide, authorities said, and police say they discovered notes about the couple’s struggle to afford necessary medical care. A 77-year-old man living near Ferndale, Washington, called 911 Wednesday morning and told the dispatcher he was contemplating suicide, according to a Facebook post from the Whatcom County Sheriff’s Office. The sheriff's office wrote that the dispatcher tried to keep the man on the line, but he hung up saying, “We will be in the front bedroom.” Deputies arrived at the scene minutes later, according to the...

"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." —H.L. MenckenThe country is again in an uproar following the latest mass shootings in Texas and Ohio. In response to the hysterical clamor in the media to "do something," politicians in both the Democratic and Republican Parties want (yet again!) more gun laws. Republicans, including President Trump, are proposing a "red flag" confiscation law that would enable police to summarily seize an individual's guns based on hearsay....

Former Planned Parenthood medical assistant Ta’Lisa Hairston, recently highlighted in a New York Times expose detailing how she and other pregnant staffers experienced discrimination while working for the abortion corporation, has spoken out in an interview for the first time since the article was published. Hairston told the Times that Planned Parenthood ignored her obstetrician’s orders requiring her to take frequent breaks. Hairston gave birth prematurely and told the Times that just two months later, Planned Parenthood “began calling her at home, telling her to return to work early.” She further describes the harassment and stress she suffered at the...

DES MOINES, Iowa — Joe Biden called for the United States to increase the number of immigrants and refugees from its current acceptance rate. During a campaign stop hosted by the Asian & Latino Coalition PAC Thursday night, the former vice president pointed to nations with present conflicts that the U.S. should be accepting refugees from. “We should change the priorities in terms of whether or not who is able to get in line. We should be uniting family. We should be uniting them. We should also be looking at the whole idea of what's going on in terms of...

The destruction of the truth in America has been underway for decades, but until recent years the truth has had the upper hand. This can be attributed in large parts to conservatives, but the shift in media sentiment and the rise of Trump Derangement Syndrome has made it more challenging than ever in our history to break through the media jamming of lies and expose more Americans to the truth. Under normal circumstances, uncorroborated rumors aren’t enough to spark a report. But these are strange times and the circumstances are far from normal, especially as they pertain to the radical...

Google doesn’t exactly have a reputation for being pro-life. It has shown a clear bias against pregnancy centers; originally categorized the pro-life film “Unplanned” as “propaganda;” ditched an artificial intelligence advisory council after a conservative, pro-life Black female leader was included on it; and has, via YouTube, suppressed Live Action’s pro-life message. Now, one Google employee has written a memo claiming she was discriminated against for becoming pregnant. Pregnancy discrimination persists, despite being illegal in the United States. The Pregnancy Discrimination Act (PDA) means that an employer cannot show any kind of discrimination against a woman because she is pregnant,...

President Trump on Friday called for "intelligent background checks" on gun purchases in response to a string of mass shootings across the country, expressing confidence that Congress would come together on action. “Frankly, we need intelligent background checks,” Trump told reporters as he left the White House for a fundraiser in the Hamptons. "This isn't a question of NRA, Republican or Democrat," he added. Trump said he’s spoken with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), he said was “totally on board.” The president also said he had a "great talk" with both Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Senate Minority Leader...
