The Democrat push to remove parents from having a say in their children’s healthcare is a major attack on the American family. No Democrat has actually said “all your child are belong to us,” but every time I read a story about the Democrat push to sever the parent-child relationship, I’m reminded of that long ago Japanese video game with the horrible translation: “All your base are belong to us.” Beginning with Lenin, all totalitarian takeovers have involved co-opting children and breaking them away from their families. We’re seeing this with a vengeance in the medical field, where children as...

VIDEOAs of this writing, if you enter "Hunter Biden" into Google search for the past 24 hours, the latest explosive revelations about him are ABSURDLY missing. This video explains why. Oh, and just for the record to avoid any such suppression of this video, I just want to stipulate that Hunter Biden is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I have ever known in my life.

IPray For The Peace of JerusalemGenesis 33Dinah and the Shechemites 34 Now Dinah, the daughter Leah had borne to Jacob, went out to visit the women of the land. 2 When Shechem son of Hamor the Hivite, the ruler of that area, saw her, he took her and raped her. 3 His heart was drawn to Dinah daughter of Jacob; he loved the young woman and spoke tenderly to her. 4 And Shechem said to his father Hamor, “Get me this girl as my wife.” 5 When Jacob heard that his daughter Dinah had been defiled, his sons were in...

An elite Brooklyn private school was forced to shelve an invasive questionnaire that surveyed students as young as 10 about their sexual orientation and their parents' political beliefs. Poly Prep Country Day School in Brooklyn, which charges parents more than $57,000 per year, disguised the questionnaire under the name 'DEIB climate survey.' 'DEIB' stands for: 'diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging.' Statements included: 'Most people think that people from my racial/ethnic group are as smart as people of other racial/ethnic groups,' 'Women have fewer chances to get ahead,' and 'Teachers teach about racial inequality in the United States.' Students were required...

President Joe Biden is calling on Americans to vote for Democrats in response to the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, but polling shows abortion is not a top concern for the American electorate. "We need two additional pro-choice senators and a pro-choice House to codify Roe as federal law," Biden said on Friday when signing an executive order related to expanding abortion access. "Your vote can make that a reality. For God's sakes, there's an election in November. Vote, vote, vote." A Monmouth University poll released Tuesday asked respondents to identify the biggest concern facing their family...

As missed warning signs pile up in investigations of mass killings, New York state is rolling out a novel strategy to screen applicants for gun permits. People seeking to carry concealed handguns will be required to hand over their social media accounts for a review of their “character and conduct.” It’s an approach applauded by many Democrats and national gun control advocacy groups, but some experts have raised questions about how the law will be enforced and address free speech concerns. Some of the local officials who will be tasked with reviewing the social media content also are asking whether...

Belgorod is the biggest sub built in 30 years at over 600ft long and 30,000 tons Can carry 6 80ft Poseidon torpedoes with up to 100 megaton nuclear warheads Coastal attack would cause 500m tsunami and 'devastating' radiation spread Russian Navy chief claimed the sub will be used for scientific research missions Experts fear sub could sabotage undersea cables with special unmanned drones Delivered to Russian Navy yesterday after being spotted on surface last month ... Last year Dr Sidharth Kaushal, from the Royal United Services Institute, told The Mail on Sunday he believed the fleet of unmanned underwater vehicles...

“China’s goal is not just to dominate the world, but to reduce the rest of us to subservience.” With that terrifying projection, China expert Steven Mosher has been trying to rouse America from its complacency and caution the Biden administration over its appeasement of the Red Dragon. He reads clear and present danger in a leaked video showing Chinese military commanders discussing a 90-day countdown to a Taiwan invasion. Mosher says the video is authentic, and that the Biden administration’s mixed signals on Taiwan smack of a fecklessness that will only embolden China. Other experts, too, warn of the government’s...

Former UK defence secretary Penny Mordaunt on Sunday became the ninth Conservative MP to launch a bid to replace Prime Minister Boris Johnson, as the already fractious race promptly focused on tax. Mordaunt, 49, an ex-navy reservist who has also held several senior ministerial roles, is not among the frontrunners to succeed Johnson in recent polls of Tory party members ultimately set to choose their new leader. But such contests are notoriously unpredictable, and with more than a dozen lawmakers from multiple factions of the ruling party potentially set to run, political commentators say few contenders can be discounted. The...

The astonishing thing about our departing Prime Minister is that he is so ordinary. See past the fake Edwardian growl, the artfully rumpled appearance and the little jokes and you find a rather dull person with no actual ideas or aims. He is a Bertie Wooster with a Jeeves, amusing at first but not so funny later, bound to get himself and you into impossible trouble. Some of you may remember the Scarlet Pimpernel, Baroness Orczy's fictional English hero. By day he was the apparently moronic Sir Percy Blakeney, a languid drawling top, but by night he was a ruthless,...

Health officials on Wednesday recommended that men in Florida who have sex with other men get a meningococcal vaccine following what the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention called "one of the worst outbreaks of meningococcal disease among gay and bisexual men in U.S. history." The CDC said in a statement that there have been at least 24 cases and seven deaths among gay and bisexual men caused by the bacteria in Florida recently. The CDC also recommended that gay and bisexual men traveling to Florida should ask their health care provider about getting the vaccine. "Because of the outbreak...

Last week at American Thinker, in discussing the Dobbs case, I prophesied, “and if your media sources resemble those I’ve seen, the moral angle will be played to the hilt with stories of exceptional cases being treated as the rule.” How right I was, as the story of a 10-year-old who was raped and had to travel to Indiana from Ohio to get an abortion was highlighted in multiple media everywhere and used to discredit the Supreme Court justices who decided Dobbs and pro-life politicians. Megan Fox has done a fine bit of journalism exposing this propaganda coup and the...

Ruslana Hrytskiv has helped "dozens, maybe hundreds" of refugees since Russia invaded Ukraine, but her task is getting tougher as war fatigue sets in and Europe battles soaring prices and record inflation. When she tried to find shoes for Ukrainian children on Facebook this week, she found herself entangled instead in a debate on the health aspects of wearing second-hand footwear. Her argument that the mother, who gave birth to a third child en route to Prague, simply could not afford something new for her twins failed to impress. "The response is slower than it used to be," said Hrytskiv,...

A California OB-GYN is organizing an effort to provide abortion services and reproductive health care to women in states bordering the Gulf of Mexico by anchoring a floating clinic off the coast on federal waters. Dr. Meg Autry, who is also a professor at the University of California San Francisco campus, is helming the project to launch the vessel in response to last month's Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade

Meghan Markle is going all-in for abortion these days, which includes one of her product endorsements. The Duchess of Sussex used to be required to keep her political opinions quiet, but ever since she stepped back as a senior working royal, Markle has been voicing her feminist views. Now, Page Six reported that the brand Awe Inspired introduced a “Woman Power” necklace, which costs between $140-$150. One hundred percent of the proceeds for the necklace and the rest of the Ruth Bader Ginsburg collection from Awe Inspired will benefit Planned Parenthood. Markle was first spotted wearing the necklace, which features...

Former President Donald Trump called Elon Musk a “bulls–t artist” as he stumped for Republican midterm candidates in Anchorage, Alaska Saturday night. Trump, 76, told supporters he predicted the world’s richest man would not go through with buying Twitter as he bashed the platform that banned him and promoted his Truth Social social media company. Musk, 51, backed out of a $44 billion deal to buy the company Friday after he claimed it failed to provide information about its fake accounts. Trump also claimed the SpaceX and Tesla boss voted for him and then lied about it. “You know, he...

The National Instant background Check System (NICS) checks continued the trend of being the third-highest June on record, while gun sales jumped to the second-highest June on record. The drop in NICS checks by almost 500,000 from last June occurred primarily because of the reform of the Firearms Owner IDentification card system in Illinois. Illinois checks and rechecks for permits dropped by over 400 thousand.At the same time, gun sales (always an approximation because of the way the NICS system operates) were up by about 8% to 1.35 million. It is far from the record for June set in 2020...
