    LGBTQ activists slam Gov. Bill Lee for signing billNASHVILLE, Tenn. (ChurchMilitant.com) - Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee last week signed into law what had been touted by the Left as an "anti-LGBTQ" bill, protecting Catholic and other adoption agencies' right to refuse adoption by same-sex couples. Lee signed the bill because of his belief that defending religious liberty "is very important." During his first term in office, the governor has mentioned his Christian faith on multiple occasions. Tennessee faith-based agencies already prevent same-sex couples from adopting children. The new law will protect these agencies legally. The new legal protections have caught...

The state is activating emergency operation centers in Tallahassee and Miami-Dade and Broward counties as a precautionary move, said Jared Moskowitz, director of the Florida Division of Emergency Management. “We are going to be ready to support potentially anything that may happen,” he said. “The only thing I hope happens is one of those teams has a good game and that’s the end of...

She is hoping to get judgements on record before the assets of Hunter go under probate and the control of an estate administrator. Ms Allred is calling on all women, whether from single night or week of drug...

    Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) tweeted to cancel student loan debt. Then, this happened. **SNIP** Here is a sample from various Twitter users: “In this country, if one takes on debt it is one’s responsibility to pay it back. Not one’s neighbor, or work mate, or a complete stranger. To do otherwise is to teach irresponsibility.” “I already worked my butt off & saved to pay down my student loans. I refuse to now pay for the loans of others.” “It all amounts to the same thing. Stealing from responsible people, to pay off the debts of people who made bad...

    Full title: Four ancient skulls unearthed in Mexico suggest that North America was a melting pot of different peoples and cultures 10,000 years ago The first humans to settle in North America were more diverse than previously believed, according to a new study of skeletal fragments. US scientists analysed four skulls recovered from caves in Mexico that belonged to humans that lived sometime between 9,000 to 13,000 years ago. The researchers were surprised to find a high level of diversity, with the skulls ranging in similarity to that of Europeans, Asian and ...

    Republicans love to wail and gnash their teeth at the concept of a single payer for healthcare. And they should — the U.S. government would certainly destroy the quality of our medicine and shorten lives. The miracle of American healthcare today would be long gone with the creation a vertically integrated system run by Uncle Sam. As Ronald Reagan used to joke, the scariest words in the English language are, ‘We’re the government and we’re here to help’. However, hypocrisy is not something to be lost on any politician. So, it does not come as a surprise that the GOP...

    Joe Biden, the 2020 Democratic presidential front-runner and advocate of large-scale immigration, once tried to block the evacuation of tens of thousands of South Vietnamese refugees who had helped the United States during the Vietnam War. As a senator, the future vice president, now 76, was adamant that the U.S. had "no obligation, moral or otherwise, to evacuate foreign nationals," dismissing concerns for their safety as the North Vietnamese Army and Viet Cong swept south toward Saigon in 1975. His position was in stark contrast to the one he took nearly 30 years later over Iraqi and Afghan interpreters who...

President Trump’s former national security adviser Bolton changed his tune on how he felt about the commander-in-chief’s July 25 call with his Ukrainian counterpart after he was fired from his White House post.

January 29, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) – The working documents in preparation for the assemblies of the German bishops’ “Synodal Path” defend the use of contraception, the practice of masturbation, and an active homosexual lifestyle. Additionally, neither the question of the ordination of women nor that of making celibacy optional for priests is taken off the table. In 2019, four panels of experts were preparing working documents to serve as the basis for discussion among...

Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Josh Hawley (R-MO). "Is it true that Shawn Misco and Abigail Grace and the alleged whistleblower were employed by or detailed by the National Security Council in...

    Ford Focus and Fiesta owners have had many days in court, but finally, it appears a long-running class-action lawsuit will wrap up.

The dual-clutch transmission, named DPS6, has for years been the focal point of consumer complaints.
