After the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in its decision in Dobbs vs. Jackson Women’s Health, Sen. Bernie Sanders, the Vermont socialist, put out tweets calling for the codification of Roe v. Wade. “Overturning Roe v. Wade and denying women the right to control their own bodies is an outrage and in defiance of what the American people want,” said Sanders in a tweet on June 24. …

The Pulitzer Prize Board gave the 2018 award for National Reporting jointly to the New York Times and Washington Post. The recognition was for their reporting on the alleged conspiring, coordination, and collusion between the Donald Trump presidential campaign and the Russian government with the goal of electing Trump president at the expense of Hillary Clinton. The papers implied Trump and many in his inner circle were beholden to Vladimir Putin. In bestowing the award, the Pulitzer judges praised the two papers.

“‘Not everyone who says to Me, “Lord, Lord,” will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter’” (Matthew 7:21). Here Jesus is speaking of the devotedly religious who think they are saved but aren’t. The Lord will continue these warnings later about spiritual self-deception—the foolish, unprepared virgins (Matt. 25:1–12) and the goats who did not really serve Him (Matt. 25:32–33, 41–46). Many factors deceive people regarding salvation. First, some have a false assurance. They rely on past “decisions for Christ,” apart from the Spirit’s convicting work. But our...

(and true love never dies.)"True love" is ahavat emet [אהבת אמת], but technically it is the phrase "love of truth". Here is a little discussion about it. The subject matter is bad Hebrew tattoos.For comparison and contemplation:Exodus 31 Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Midian: and he led the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, even to Horeb. 2 And the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he looked, and,...

Shocking footage has emerged of the moment a Russian soldier attempted to destroy a Ukrainian missile launcher from close range with dramatic and potentially lethal consequences. The clip, shared on a pro-Russian channel on social media and messaging app Telegram, shows one of Putin's fighters taking aim at an abandoned Ukrainian S-300 missile launcher sitting mere yards away. After taking a few moments to compose himself, the soldier squeezes the trigger of his PKM machine gun, presumably expecting to damage the hardware or perhaps set off a minor explosion to render it inoperable. A split second later the missile launcher...

Shares of GameStop jumped more than 8% in extended trading Wednesday after the retailer said a 4-for-1 stock split was approved by its board.

Fox News co-host Judge Jeanine Pirro explained Wednesday on "The Five" why the father of July 4 parade shooting suspect Robert Crimo is potentially culpable in the tragedy. JUDGE JEANINE PIRRO: If you go into a home and there are 17 knives and one sword and one dagger, and the individual had tried to kill himself a few months earlier, you don’t take the knives and then say, "Gee, you know, we are going to leave him here." We already know he is suicidal, may have been homicidal with all of these knives, they did not give the information to...

Massachusetts Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren is declaring war on crisis pregnancy centers in her state while lamenting the fact they outnumber abortion clinics 3-1. Last week, she introduced legislation to crack down on pro-life clinics that help pregnant women in crisis. Since a draft opinion of Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization was leaked in early May, dozens of violent attacks have been carried out against crisis pregnancy centers in cities across the country. The Antifa-linked group Jane's Revenge wrote a letter three weeks ago vowing to do more. "We were unsurprised to see thirty days come and thirty days...

Once again the NYS Legislature has seen fit to pass sweeping new criminal justice laws that affect the rights of millions of NY citizens, and which impose burdensome new duties on local government officials, without any consultation with the people who will be responsible for carrying out the provisions of those new laws. This has become a habit with the Legislature and has resulted in other criminal justice disasters such as NY’s so-called Bail Reform Law…. The new firearms law language first saw the light of day on a Friday morning and was signed into law Friday afternoon. A parliamentary...

A pair of orcas killing great white sharks by ripping open their torsos for their livers — and as a result scaring away great whites from a South African region — has raised questions about whether that could happen along Cape Cod. But it’s “really too early to say” if killer whales will descend upon the Massachusetts coast and drive away the growing great white shark population, a local shark expert tells the Herald. “When there have been orca sightings here through the years, they’ve never really seemed to impact the white sharks in the area,” said John Chisholm, who...

PORTLAND, Oregon — Police officers successfully drove dozens of anarchist rioters away from Holy Redeemer Church in Portland late July 1. The Portland Activists online calendar had announced night rally at nearby Peninsula Park with the intent to “Abolish SCOTUS.” Since the U.S. Supreme Court’s June 24 decision overturning Roe v. Wade and letting the states decide abortion laws, Catholic buildings across the nation have been a target of vandals who have cited the church’s support for the unborn. Holy Redeemer had been vandalized with graffiti in the spring and was being mentioned by name in anarchist chatter in late...

If you think your social media experience is unimpeded, we have proof to the contrary. Just before the Fourth of July, Military Miniature Press announced the reveal of The Russia-Ukraine War Factbook, a comprehensive and unobstructed guide to the ongoing conflict. As we describe it, the book is an "objective look" at the war, geared not by propaganda or political influence, but by facts. Yet when we tried to advertise the book on Facebook and Twitter, we received the same response — it fell under a blanket ban merely for being about the Russia-Ukraine War. We're not ignorant of the...

The pope reportedly laughed off speculation that he would soon resign the papacy and revealed plans to visit Ukraine and Russia.VATICAN CITY (LifeSiteNews) – Pope Francis has announced that he has no plans to retire from the papacy in an interview published Monday, stating that the notion of resigning has “never entered” his mind. Speaking to Reuters’ Vatican reporter Philip Pullella in a 90-minute interview Saturday, Pope Francis answered growing speculation that he intends to resign his position as the earthly leader of the Catholic Church, dismissing the idea as rumor. A combination of events in recent months, including a...

Federal television should produce more programs that "foster a taste for beauty," now it is "full of vulgar and talentless" programs that promote the occult, which, according to the Russian Orthodox Church, affects children, said Fr. Fedor Lukyanov, chairman of the Patriarchal Commission for Family, Maternity and Childhood Protection, to RIA Novosti. Earlier, Russian Investigative Committee Chairman Alexander Bastrykin told RIA Novosti that the Investigative Committee suggests limiting the showing of scenes of violence and cruelty, "manifestations of immorality and debauchery" on federal TV channels, and excluding talk shows and reality shows that desocialize young people. "The experts of the...

When U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a pro-abortion rights Catholic, received Communion at the Vatican on Wednesday despite her stance, it became national news. In New Mexico, a similar story was quietly unfolding. John Block, the Republican nominee for House District 51, asked Archbishop John C. Wester to take “swift disciplinary action” against Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham, including denying her Communion, over her staunch support of abortion rights. The request came in the wake of the U.S. Supreme Court decision to overturn the landmark ruling in Roe v. Wade that established abortion rights in the U.S. and amid an ongoing...

At 10:14 a.m. on July 4, 2022, a young man named Robert Crimo III allegedly aimed his rifle into the crowd at his hometown’s Independence Day parade and opened fire. Within moments, the Chicago suburban town of Highland Park was a scene of terrible carnage. Seven innocent people killed, more than 40 injured, at this writing. The alleged killer escaped the scene, but was caught that afternoon (we say “alleged,” because, while he has not yet been convicted, all sources agree that he was the perpetrator, without question). Compliments to the many law enforcement and medical professionals who dealt with...
