ESPN sports analyst Domonique Foxworth sparked controversy this week when he revealed that he enjoys it when Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen fails because he doesn’t like Allen’s fans. Foxworth made the comments on the ESPN podcast “The Right Time with Bomani Jones” on Tuesday.

With the media’s non-stop efforts to coronate Basement Joe as our next president, and the efforts of activist judges to discredit brave whistleblowers who’ve come forward to share their stories of voter fraud and intimidation they witnessed, it’s difficult to remain hopeful about President Trump’s chances of re-election. It’s hard to imagine good and honest Americans will prevail in their efforts to defeat decades of dirty, organized voter fraud in America. In one brilliant, heartfelt explanation, Michigan patriot Matt Sealy has given Trump supporters some very good reasons to keep hope alive. In spite of the many setbacks by unfair...

Former NFL star Tim Tebow will headline the annual March for Life banquet that precedes the March for Life, where hundreds of thousands of pro-life Americans march to support the right to life of unborn children. March for Life officials told LifeNews.com today that they were excited Tebow would head up the banquet — which will be virtual this year because of concerns with the coronavirus. “We are thrilled to announce Tim Tebow as the keynote speaker for the 2021 Virtual Rose Dinner Gala,” March for Life said. “The annual Rose Dinner Gala is a pro-life event on the evening...

A wartime spy described as Winston Churchill's favourite has finally been remembered with a blue plaque. Christine Granville, who was born Krystyna Skarbek in Warsaw, joined British intelligence in 1939 and is said to have inspired Ian Fleming's spy character Vesper Lynd. She struggled after the war and was given cheap lodgings at a London hotel run by the Polish Relief Society. It was her home until she was murdered by a stalker in 1952, aged 44. The English Heritage Blue Plaque has been unveiled at the former Shelbourne Hotel (now 1 Lexham Gardens), in Kensington, and is inscribed with...

CNN ran a piece December 13 noting that Joe Biden goes to church, prays, and carries a rosary. Right after the election, America, the Jesuit media outlet, commented that Biden prays and carries a rosary. Back in September, NPR observed that Biden uses “biblical language,” prays, is a “deeply devout person of faith,” and, of course, carries a rosary. The Washington Post is fascinated by Biden’s faith. On November 30th, it noted his “devout Catholicism.” On December 9th, two articles were published on this subject. One mentioned that he goes to church on Sunday and carries a rosary. The other...

Once again, Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf has shut down businesses because of the pandemic—but abortion operations are exempt from his latest closure order. Over the weekend, gyms, theaters, and casinos had to shut their doors, while abortion facilities were permitted to remain open. Restaurants had to suspend indoor dining, and indoor gatherings of more than 10 people are prohibited. But the Governor’s announcement made no mention of abortion facilities. This, despite the threat of infection which abortion centers pose to vulnerable women. For five months—from February to July—the state Health Department presumably failed to inspect abortion facilities, since no inspection...

As COVID-19 vaccines are now being distributed in Arizona and across the nation, the Diocese of Phoenix gives thanks to God for our first responders, medical professionals and public servants who continue to work selflessly throughout this pandemic for the common good. May they be protected from the COVID-19 virus, granted strength in their important work, and used as instruments of healing to those who are most in need. In concurrence with moral and scientific guidance from the National Catholic Bioethics Center and Charlotte Lozier Institute, the Diocese of Phoenix affirms that the Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines are morally...

A Tennessee law that ensures women are not rushed into aborting their unborn babies will remain blocked after a federal judge ruled Monday. The AP reports U.S. District Judge Bernard Friedman refused to lift his block on the state 48-hour waiting period law, which requires abortion facilities to provide informed consent counseling to women at least two days prior to an abortion. The state is appealing to the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals. Friedman initially blocked the pro-life law in October, arguing that it burdens women’s access to abortion, according to the report. A group of Tennessee abortion facilities is...

A crime story out of India this week serves as a reminder of how often pregnant women and unborn babies are subjected to cruel abuses. The Times of India reports a judge in the Tamil Nadu district of India sentenced a man to death Tuesday for murdering his wife and unborn baby in 2015. M. Suresh, 36, of Gandhi Nagar Colony, recently was convicted of murder and other crimes. Authorities said he abused his wife repeatedly, beating her and burning her with cigarettes. On July 21, 2015, when his wife was about six months pregnant, authorities said Suresh accused her...

Today marks 275 days since the institution of the infamous “Flatten the Curve,” AKA The Deep State’s Plot to Drive Us Crazy, Make Us Stupid, and Take Over the World. 15 days, they told us, for 15 days/roughly 2 weeks we need to work from home, close non-essential business, cancel concerts, baby showers, bingo games, etc., yada, yada, you know “the thing” (to show my solidarity with a certain presidential candidate) in order to give hospitals a chance to gear up for huge, terrible, overwhelming waves of ‘rona patients. 15 days. Instead, 15 days has now become 275 days. We...

As some Republicans try to separate themselves from Atlanta-attorney Lin Wood’s post-election rhetoric, President Donald Trump amplified Wood’s latest missive against Governor Brian Kemp and Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. President Trump retweeted Wood’s statement where he said, “President Trump is a genuinely good man. He does not really like to fire people. I bet he dislikes putting people in jail, especially “Republicans.” He gave @BrianKempGA & @GaSecofState every chance to get it right. They refused. They will soon be going to jail.”

Many in the anti-abortion community are raising concerns about Xavier Becerra being named to a Joe Biden cabinet post, should the Democratic candidate ultimately become the 46th president of the United States. So what’s all the fuss about? Becerra, now the attorney general for California, is Biden’s pick for secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). That would be bad news for the unborn and their mothers, as there are few more committed abortion ideologues in the nation. Before being elected attorney general three years ago, Becerra had represented a Los Angeles district in the U.S. House...

We are holding an oversight hearing tomorrow to examine the irregularities in the 2020 election. A large percentage of Americans simply don't think this was a legitimate election. That’s an unsustainable state of affairs for our country. https://hsgac.senate.gov/examining-irregularities-in-the-2020-election

CBS News reporter Kate Smith has developed a reputation for being strongly biased on the abortion issue. Not a political commentator, columnist or opinion writer, Smith is a reporter – someone who is supposed to investigate and present facts, evidence and positions to readers in a balanced, unbiased manner. But Smith, who describes herself as an “abortion access” reporter, repeatedly has displayed her bias in favor of abortion in her reports and on social media. On Monday, she slammed pro-life Vice President Mike Pence as “incredibly tone deaf” because he is holding a pro-life event as the coronavirus spreads, Fox...

A former NFL coach who boldly shares his Christian faith is challenging the pro-abortion stance of a controversial pastor who's on the brink of becoming a member of the U.S. Senate. Tony Dungy (pictured) brought up a valid question for Atlanta pastor Raphael Warnock, a pro-choice Democratic candidate in a decisive Georgia runoff race for the U.S. Senate slated for January 5: Is Warnock, who has touted his anti-biblical, pro-abortion stance, really a Christian? Warnock, who has declared “I am a pro-choice pastor,” is running against Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R-Ga.) in runoff early next month that could determine which party...

Per DC Talk Radio Barr / Rosen are getting ahead of a request by Trump to appoint a Special Counsel for the Biden Foreign Money business. DoJ is working OT on legal maneuvers and counter moves to prevent appointment. They think Trump may replace Rosen because Rosen is following Barr’s wishes. ‘

Pro-life and Christian leaders are in disagreement about the morality of being vaccinated with new COVID-19 vaccines that were developed using cells from aborted babies. All three of the currently available vaccines for the coronavirus used cells from aborted babies in some part of the process. The vaccine by AstraZeneca has the most direct connection to abortion. It was developed with cells from an aborted baby’s kidney, though the cells are not in the actual vaccine. While a number of leading pro-life and religious organizations, including the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, have warned people about the unethical production of...

In response to remarks given by Joe Biden, as well as pro-abortion Democratic candidates Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock at a campaign event today in Georgia, the national pro-life group Susan B. Anthony List (SBA List) issued the following statement: “When Joe Biden says Georgians must vote like lives depend on it, he is right – at stake in the upcoming runoff elections is not only the fate of the U.S. Senate, but that of countless unborn children and their mothers, and of our nation itself. Unfortunately, Biden and his fellow radicals Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock are too afraid...

SAN JOSE DE GUANIPA, Venezuela (Reuters) - Francisco Belisario, a Venezuelan mayor, retired general and member of the ruling Socialist party, had enough. His loudest local critic had accused him of bungling the response to the coronavirus outbreak and other big problems. In August, he wrote a state prosecutor and requested an “exhaustive investigation” of his nemesis, Giovanni Urbaneja, a former lawmaker who had become a gadfly to the mayor and other Socialist officeholders. Urbaneja, Belisario wrote in a letter reviewed by Reuters, was conducting a “ferocious smear campaign” on Facebook and elsewhere. Urbaneja not only defamed him and President...
