FRANKFORT, Ky. (FOX 56) – The U.S. Supreme Court issued a decisive 8-1 ruling in favor of Kentucky Attorney General, Daniel Cameron on Thursday, according to a news release from the Kentucky Office of the Attorney General. The ruling allows Cameron to continue to defend House Bill 454 (HB 454), which is Kentucky’s law outlawing live-dismemberment abortions. After hearing the court’s ruling, Cameron issued the following statement:

While supporters on social media desperately try to paper over Joe Biden’s disastrous energy policies, which are causing near $7.00-per-gallon gas prices, Democrats in his administration are doing the opposite. And for once, they’re telling the truth. High prices are by design, and they don’t care if it hurts your family, your job, your food supply, or your ability to move freely about the country as long as their windmills and Chinese-made solar panels operate your cars and planes. Don’t ask questions. The timing is spectacularly bad. Democrat authoritarians have begun removing mandates and lockdowns because the political science has...

ransomnote: Those who have a medical license are fired and/or stripped of their license if they talk about vaccine harm. For this reason, some without medical licenses stand in their place, receiving facts/data/reports from the physicians and researchers, and taking the heat on their behalf because that stand-in has no medical license. Then, pro-vax forces say such messengers, and their vax warnings, are illegitimate because the messenger lacks a medical license, and that no 'real' doctor has come forward so it must all be propaganda. Physicians and others on the front line have few options - they know too much.The...

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine enters its second week Thursday as fighting continues across the smaller country. There were conflicting reports about which side controls the city of Kherson. Ukrainians still control capital Kyiv despite Russian efforts to overtake the city. Port city Maripol and Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second biggest city, experienced heavy shelling Wednesday. Specific accounts of military activity are difficult to confirm as the situation on the ground in Ukraine can change quickly.

So, I urge you to speak out against those who would place the United States in a position of military and moral inferiority. You know, I’ve always believed that old Screwtape reserved his best efforts for those of you in the Church. So, in your discussions of the nuclear freeze proposals, I urge you to beware the temptation of pride–the temptation of blithely..uh..declaring yourselves above it all and label both sides equally at fault, to ignore the facts of history and the aggressive impulses of an evil empire, to simply call the arms race a giant misunderstanding and thereby remove...

Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said the US should be treating all refugees in the same way Ukrainian refugees are being treated worldwide. “I think the world is watching and many immigrants and refugees are watching, and how the world treats Ukraine and Ukrainian refugees should be how we are treating all refugees in the United States,” Ocasio-Cortez told MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow on Tuesday night. Ocasio-Cortez said there was a stark difference between the treatment of Ukrainian refugees compared to how Syrian refugees were treated not that long ago. “The way the world treated Syrian refugees versus the way the world...

RT America, the Russian state-funded media outlet, is permanently shutting down as tensions rise between the U.S. and Russia over its invasion of Ukraine. An employee for RT America told Fox News that she and approximately 120 other staffers, who were described as Americans, were informed in a meeting on Thursday that operations were shutting down at the network's Washington D.C. headquarters as well as the New York, Los Angeles and Miami bureaus. The staffer said employees were given severance packages. This comes as DirecTV announced it was removing RT America from its programming, saying "In line with our previous...

Biden administration officials are discussing sending Vice President Kamala Harris to Warsaw and Bucharest in the coming weeks as Ukraine attempts to fight off an invasion by Russia. Sources familiar with the conversations told The Hill on Thursday that the White House is considering dispatching Harris to visit troops stationed in Romania and potentially visit the country’s border with Ukraine to observe the humanitarian crisis there. One source said the trip could happen in the coming weeks and added that there are no discussions about sending President Biden to Europe. “A presidential visit is a heavier logistical lift,” the source...

NEW YORK (AP) — Soprano Anna Netrebko withdrew from her future engagements at the Metropolitan Opera, costing the company one of its top singers and best box-office draws. “It is a great artistic loss for the Met and for opera,” Met General Manager Peter Gelb said in a statement Thursday. “Anna is one of the greatest singers in Met history, but with Putin killing innocent victims in Ukraine, there was no way forward.”

Levine Cava tweeted her support of a Russian flight ban in the U.S. during the State of the Union. “Miami-Dade County stands firm in its support of President Biden’s decision to ban Russian aircrafts from U.S. airspace, including Miami International Airport. My administration is ready to work with the federal government to aid the Ukrainian people however we can,” she tweeted.

William Barr says Trump booted him for calling ‘bulls–t’ on voter fraud Former Attorney General ​William Barr said President Donald Trump became furious when he called claims of widespread voter fraud during the 2020 presidential election “bulls–t” — an accusation that Trump responded to by calling Barr a “coward.” “I told him that all this stuff was bull​s–t ​… about election fraud. And, you know, it was wrong to be shoveling it out the way his team was,” Barr, who is promoting a new tell-all book, ​told ​NBC News’ Lester Holt ​in an excerpt of an interview that will air...

Things haven’t been going smoothly for the Russian army in its attempt to crush the resistance in Ukraine and take control of the country. Casualties have been far higher than anticipated and progress has been slow. But while the Ukrainians have fought back bravely, Putin has continued to expand both the volume of forces moving into the country and the intensity of the attacks, going so far as to deploy banned thermobaric weapons. Barring some sort of diplomatic agreement to end the assault – which few analysts seem optimistic about – Ukraine may eventually fall. At the Wall Street Journal,...

What will be the Washington Post's Headline the day after Election day 2022?

God gave the prophet Jeremiah a revelation of his name Jehovah Tsidkenu(pronounced Je-HO-va Sid-KAY-noo) in a time of crisis similar to the one we face today. “Behold, the days are coming,’ says the Lord, ‘That I will raise to David a Branch of righteousness; a King shall reign and prosper, and execute judgment and righteousness in the earth. In his days Judah will be saved, and Israel will dwell safely; now this is his name by which he will be called: THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.’” (Jeremiah 23:5–6, NKJV). What does this mean for us, in practical terms? What is this...

While the world's democracies have unanimously condemned and taken a stand against Russia's recent invasion of Ukraine, the Iranian government has openly defended the Russian invasion and isolated itself further and further in the world. First, Iranian Foreign Minister Amir-Abdollahian took to Twitter to blame NATO for provoking the attack and tried to legitimize and justify the attack. Then, in an unprecedented move, President Ebrahim Raisi called Putin and implicitly supported Russia's move, condemning NATO expansion and saying "NATO expansion is a serious threat to the stability and security of independent states in various regions." He then added: "We hope...

“‘Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy’” (Matthew 5:7). Pure mercy is a gift of God that comes with the new birth. People can be merciful only when they have experienced God’s mercy. God has both absolute and relative attributes. His absolute attributes—such as love, truth, and holiness—have characterized Him from all eternity. But His relative attributes—like mercy, justice, and grace—were not manifested until man, whom He created in His own image, sinned and became separated from his Creator. Apart from sin and evil, mercy, justice, and grace have no meaning. When man fell, God extended His love...
