Biden has said and done lots of dangerous things in his crushing rush to embrace collectivist ideology. But nothing is more dangerous than when he recently claimed that the children of America don’t belong to their parents, but to the nation at large. "Rebecca put a teacher's creed into words when she said, 'There's no such thing as someone else's' child. Our nation's children are all our children,’” he quoted. This is hateful and fundamentally wrong– and no parent needs a so-called experts to disabuse them of the notion that our children are ours, and no one elses. It is...

The nation has been given to understand that Joe Biden has announced his run for a second presidential term that would end on or about his 86th circuit around the sun. The president is at that advanced age when families start having hard conversations about taking away grandpa's car keys, or whether Aunt Julie should really be using the stove unattended. Well, it's time for America to have that talk. There is little doubt that for a half hour or so, Old Scranton Joe can be propped up in front of a flag reading an announcement off of his IMAX-sized...

Joe Biden on Wednesday held a joint press conference with South Korean President Yoon in the Rose Garden. Biden took questions from a list of pre-approved reporters. One reporter asked Joe Biden if he is concerned about his old age after announcing his 2024 reelection campaign this week. “With regard to age, I can’t even say I guess how old I am — I can’t even say the number. It doesn’t register with me,” Biden said.

A Nebraska Methodist pastor slammed pro-life advocates in a recent interview, claiming their “pro-birth” mission has “corrupted” Christians into thinking aborting unborn babies should be illegal. Nebraska News Connection reports the Rev. Debra McKnight, founding pastor of Urban Abbey Methodist Church in Omaha, made the comment as state lawmakers prepare to debate a heartbeat bill Thursday. The pro-life bill would protect unborn babies by banning most elective abortions once their heartbeat is detectable, about six weeks of pregnancy. McKnight claimed pro-life lawmakers do not really care about children or families. She argued that if they did care, they would pass...

(LifeSiteNews) — Trustees for the Waterloo Catholic District School Board (WCDSB) in Ontario walked out of their scheduled meeting Monday night after a group of concerned citizens showed up to challenge one of the trustee’s “racist, anti-Christian” social media posts. In the now-viral video posted to Twitter by Campaign Life Coalition (CLC), Rebel News reporter David Menzies can be seen asking WCDSB chair Tracey Weiler about tweets made by one of the other board trustees, Wendy Ashby, in which she called “white Christian” males the “most dangerous creature on the planet.” Standing up to ask a question in front of...

Gary Bauer, chairman of the Campaign for Working Families, expects Biden to run a nasty campaign.“Joe Biden and his political team are more than hypocrites,” he submits. “They are vicious, absolutely vicious political fighters. If I hear one more Republican say, ‘Well, I don’t agree with Joe Biden, but he’s a really nice guy.’ No, he isn’t!”

Michigan Democrat Kathy Funk, who served as the Flint Township Clerk, was sentenced to six months of house arrest on Monday for tampering with ballots in the 2020 election. In January, Funk pleaded no contest to misconduct in office, which is treated the same as a guilty plea for sentencing purposes. As the Associated Press (AP) detailed: Funk had won the Democratic nomination by just 79 votes out of about 5,300. A recount was not conducted, and she subsequently won the general election that fall. Investigators say she sabotaged the ballot box after the primary election, an act that would...

A Democrat state lawmaker was caught red-handed hiding Bibles in the Arizona House of Representatives members-only lounge in a bizarre video. Rep. Stephanie Stahl-Hamilton, an ordained Presbyterian minister, was filmed inside the exclusive members-only lounge on April 10 grabbing a Bible off a side table and hiding it under two sofas. It was the third time since mid-March that the pair of Bibles went 'missing' from their display place inside the lounge. They were previously found underneath chair cushions and inside a fridge in a nearby kitchen. Stahl-Hamilton, who is running for re-election, now says she was hiding the Bibles...

Mostly silent on the issue for the past year, Walt Disney Parks and Resorts on Wednesday filed a federal lawsuit arguing its First Amendment rights were violated and business harmed by a “relentless campaign” of retribution orchestrated by Gov. Ron DeSantis and other officials. The 77-page lawsuit, filed in federal court in Tallahassee, pointed to retaliation for the entertainment giant’s opposition to a controversial 2022 law that restricts instruction about sexual orientation and gender identity in schools. It said the retaliation threatens the company’s...

Kennedy’s candidacy for US president is not to be ignored when it comes to peaceRobert Francis Kennedy Jr, near the very beginning of his April 19 announcement to run for US president for the Democratic Party, spoke these words: “Fifty-five years ago last month, I sat as a 14-year-old boy behind my father as he … announced in a Senate caucus room in Washington, DC, his campaign for president of the United States. And my father at time was in the same, in many ways, the same position that I’m in today. “He was running against a president of his...

Explanation: Was this a lucky shot? Although many amazing photographs are taken by someone who just happened to be in the right place at the right time, this image took skill and careful planning. First was the angular scale: if you shoot too close to the famous Arc de Triomphe in Paris, France, the full moon will appear too small. Conversely, if you shoot from too far away, the moon will appear too large and not fit inside the Arc. Second is timing: the Moon only appears centered inside the Arc for small periods of time -- from this distance...

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. (FLV) – Republican presidential candidate and former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley offered the Walt Disney Company move thousands of jobs to her home state. The offer came in an appearance on Fox News amid a recently filed lawsuit, the latest development of Disney’s power struggle with the government of Florida and the new Gov. Ron DeSantis-appointed board. “South Carolina was a very anti-woke state,” she said. “It still is. And if Disney would like to move their hundreds of thousands of jobs to South Carolina and bring the billions of dollars with them, I’ll let...

The people we elect to solve problems in America have a rich assortment from which to choose. We have persistent wage and wealth gaps, accelerating climate change, insufficient defenses against cyberattacks, divisive culture wars, a fossilized energy economy, a stalemate on international nuclear arms control, threats of civil war, domestic terrorism, and more. So why do some politicians make a big deal out of problems that don’t exist? Fake problems, as it were. Take the campaign against ESG. ESG refers to the environmental, social and good-governance policies adopted by many businesses, money managers and shareholders to ensure investments don’t result...

The Biden Administration’s mail-order abortion regime is being challenged in part of a federal lawsuit — but no matter the outcome, the United States Postal Service (USPS) plans to “follow the law,” Postmaster General Louis DeJoy said. The Washington Post published a question and answer-style interview with DeJoy on Wednesday, which included a question about how the USPS is handling laws around abortion pills as the lawsuit continues. “A federal judge in Texas issued a ruling earlier in April placing severe restrictions on abortion medication, including if it can be sent through the mail. That ruling is currently stayed and...
