Catholic League president Bill Donohue comments on the latest attacks by the United Nations’ Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights on the Church: It is no secret that the globalists at the U.N. hate the Catholic Church. Since 1994, the Catholic League has lodged multiple complaints against these Catholic-bashers. This June, the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) has been rather active, targeting the Church twice. Starting on June 4, so-called experts from OHCHR put out a statement condemning the Church for the mistreatment of indigenous children at residential schools in Canada. But this is...

The Biden administration said Thursday that it would extend the temporary bans on evictions and foreclosures for another month as the country continues to rebound from the coronavirus pandemic. The announcement comes as some states have struggled to spend the $21.5 billion in emergency rental aid included in the American Rescue Plan earlier this year, allowing states an additional month to work through a crush of applications and distribute the money before the funds expire.

Will the church view the culture war through the gospel, or will it view the gospel through the culture war? One approach is biblical. The other is deadly.Thanks to a communion controversy being clarified by the U.S. Catholic bishops and a continued insistence by President Joe Biden that his public actions are actually deeply personal matters, abortion is the issue of the day — and with it, questions of religious faithfulness.Corporate media are teaming up with nominal Catholics to smear the faithful as bad-faith political actors, while traditional Catholics work to convince an unconvinceable political class that their deeply held...

Several TikToks from an Iowa teacher went viral on Wednesday in which she ranted about not being able to teach Critical Race Theory (CRT) and being forced to say the Pledge of Allegiance before school. Megan Geha, a special education teacher at Des Moines East High School who goes by the name “Ms. Magoo” on TikTok, voiced her displeasure at the law Republican Iowa Gov.

LOS ANGELES - A Bel Air homeowner is in shock after coming face to face with a violent naked man who broke into his house and killed the family pets. Mat Sabz was home alone Thursday afternoon when his wife called to tell him that security cameras showed a naked man breaking into their home. "I see a man downstairs, eye to eye. Immediately I raised my voice and pointed at him saying ‘hey what are you doing,’" Sabz told FOX 11.

"This COVID variant will be the one to really get us. No, it's this one. Well, Alpha, Beta, and Gamma weren't a problem, but I promise you 'the Delta' spells the end of civilization." That is essentially the panic porn dressed up as science that we have been treated to ever since the virus declined in January following the winter spread, which appears to have given us a great deal of herd immunity. Despite the advent of the British and South African variants, cases, not to mention fatalities, have continued to plummet in all of the places where those variants...

Except for watching ME-TV or Antenna-TV reruns, people under the age of 40 missed out on the TV series of the 1950s and 1960s that presented moral dilemmas, dystopian futures, and other think-pieces intended to push the envelope of one’s imagination and possibilities. Science fiction was brought to the small screen in ways that examined current events and controversies of the day while providing “wholesome” entertainment unlike the sex-dominated TV fare of today. Check out this list to see where your 1960s series favorites rank in terms of popularity. Interestingly, numbers one and two on that list are my favorites,...

Despite the implications of effectively banning higher percentages of black people from their premises, many major employers, especially universities, have mandated COVID vaccination.While 46 percent of white Americans have received at least one COVID vaccine shot by now, only 33 percent of black Americans have done the same, according to the federal data available as of June 21 and analyzed most recently by the Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF). This means that, under the “disparate impact” standard now used to convict a workplace of racial discrimination under federal regulations and to accuse the United States of “systemic racism,” any use of...

A Wednesday poll indicates only 39 percent of Americans approve of President Joe Biden’s handling of China. A Fox News poll asked respondents if they approved or disapproved of Biden’s handing of China. Thirty-nine percent said they approve, and 54 percent said they disapprove. The poll also suggests 60 percent of Americans believe the coronavirus “was created by scientists in China and leaked from their laboratory.” The polling data comes as Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Francis Collins reportedly protested former President Donald Trump’s order to terminate virus research money from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) connected to the...

MOSCOW (Sputnik) - US whistleblower Edward Snowden said commenting on the death of US antivirus software developer McAfee, John McAfee, who reportedly committed suicide after his extradition to the US was approved by a Spanish court, that Julian Assange could be next. "Europe should not extradite those accused of non-violent crimes to a court system so unfair - and prison system so cruel - that native-born defendants would rather die than become subject to it. Julian Assange could be next. Until the system is reformed, a moratorium should remain," Snowden said on Twitter. https://t.co/tUociySmVy — Edward Snowden (@Snowden) June 23,...

Harris finally goes to the border, but will she visit the nightmarish youth shelters created by the Biden administration? Probably not. But she should.Vice President Kamala Harris will finally visit the U.S.-Mexico border on Friday, making a stop in El Paso, Texas, along with Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, Politico reported Wednesday. While the vice president is there, she might want to visit the vast, tent-like detention center for migrant youth at Fort Bliss, which is housing some 2,000 migrant teens in deplorable, nightmarish conditions. If she goes, she’ll be able to see first-hand the grave consequences of the Biden...

Earlier today, as RedState reported, Joe Biden launched into another dementia-laden rant where he talked about nuking Americans and shooting deer in kevlar vests. No, I’m not being facetious. That actually happened (see Biden Accidently Makes Best Ever for Second Amendment in Speech Promoting Gun Control Initiatives). In one of the best arguments for the Second Amendment ever spoken by a president, Biden asserted that no one can stand up to the government without F-15s and nuclear weapons. He seems to have a thing for the F-15, having mentioned it several times in this context and perhaps not realizing that...

Bombshell evidence has emerged that may give life to the theory that COVID-19 was potentially developed by China as a bioweapon. According to a 2009 State Department cable, Hillary Clinton expressed alarm about the launch of the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China due to “biological weapons proliferation concerns.” The cable, which was previously published by WikiLeaks, was issued to all embassies in Australia Group member countries in June 2009, with the goal of limiting the spread of dangerous weapons. “We believe it is important to focus on emerging chemical and biological technologies, trends in the trade of CBW-related (chemical...
