We must once and for all understand what Christ did for us at the cross. He forever took away the sin which separated us from God; from here on, we will always have the right to enter his presence without hesitation. We are accepted in God’s sight. There is not a single thing in his heart against us! Stop and consider the sublime efficacy of Christ’s blood. We are fully pardoned because the cross cleared us in God’s eyes. We may lose sight of that, but God never does. The veil was torn to allow us to enter directly into...

Atheists frequently pose this question to justify their disbelief. Bertrand Russell (1872–1970), a famous British philosopher, in his influential little essay, Why I am not a Christian, put this forward as his first objection.1 Today’s atheists repeat the objection, including Richard Dawkins (The God Delusion) and Australia’s own Philip Adams at the 2010 Global Atheists’ Congress in Melbourne Australia, who said,“The great argument for God was that there had to be a Creation, a beginning. … But my objection was simple. If God was the beginning who began God?”2

As LGBT propaganda and sex mania takes over government kindergartens across America, those warning of a “slippery slope” have been proven right yet again with yet another horrific scandal. In fact, after this one, parents are slowly waking up to the fact that their children are not safe in the government’s hands. Critics say government “educators” and the sex-ed fanatics have some serious explaining to do after a 6-year-old girl at a government school in Texas was forced to perform oral sex on a boy in first-grade class. Classmates filmed the monstrous crime on April 19 even as a teacher...

(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today it settled its federal election integrity lawsuit against Pennsylvania and five of its counties. Pennsylvania admitted in court filings that it removed 178,258 ineligible registrations in response to communications from Judicial Watch. The settlement commits Pennsylvania and five of its counties to extensive public reporting of statistics regarding their ongoing voter roll clean-up efforts for the next five years, along with a payment to Judicial Watch of $15,000 for legal costs and fees. In November 2021, Judicial Watch filed an amended complaint in an ongoing National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) lawsuit. The amended...

Chinese nationals aren’t the only foreigners who enriched the family while Joe Biden was vice president, Republicans on the U.S. House Committee on Oversight and Accountability revealed today.Another source of ill-gotten riches for the Biden Mafia, arranged through global business wizard Hunter, was a corrupt Romanian who funneled money to the family through one of Hunter’s “associates.”

Doris Day was an incredibly popular and Republican singer and film star, who used her fame to establish the Doris Day Animal Foundation. She said: "I like joy; I want to be joyous; I want to have fun on the set; I want to wear beautiful clothes and look pretty. I want to smile, and I want to make people laugh. And that's all I want. I like it. I like being happy. I want to make others happy." In the movie “Love Me Or Leave Me” which was nominated for 6 academy awards (winning Best Story for Daniel Fuchs),...

At a recent Senate Armed Services Committee hearing, Department of Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm defended the goal of having all army vehicles be electric-powered, saying "as the President has said on numerous occasions, climate change is a bigger threat to the planet than nuclear war. Converting our armed forces to an all-electric vehicle fleet perfectly prioritizes this bigger threat." "Some have pointed out that the majority of rare materials needed for electric-vehicle batteries come from China," Granholm observed. "The implication is that this would put our military readiness at the mercy of a potentially hostile China. What these critics overlook...

In late January, the Department of Justice (DoJ) announced it had charged 25 individuals allegedly involved in a fraud scheme to issue fake nursing diplomas in Florida, with an estimated 7,600 such qualifications being handed out. At the time, it was unclear how many of the students caught up in the scheme were aware of the fraud or were, as Omar Perez Aybar, a Department of Health and Human Service agent, described "willing but unqualified individuals." Now, two of those "willing but unqualified" nurses have told of the adversity they have faced, losing jobs and livelihoods, and the legal challenge...

I was in a medical waiting room giving someone a ride home after their treatment the other day reading the biography of Walter Cronkite by Douglas Brinkley. I looked up as Hoda Kotb and other female cast members of "Today" discussed the new breast cancer screening recommendations. No mention of all the sexual activity causing it or perhaps the need for more medical industry profits? But regardless it was ironic to notice the cleavage emanating from Hoda and the other ladies. I went back to the book. But I got a reminder of the legacy of Fox News and its...

George Santos had better have set aside some of those millions of dollars that mysteriously showed up in his campaign accounts (allegedly) because his lawyers must be running up some hefty legal bills that he’ll need to cover. And that action isn’t all taking place in New York and Washington. One of his lawyers was in Brazil this week, securing a plea deal for him that will avoid a messy trial in that country. The Brazilians had been looking for Santos since 2008 regarding allegations that he defrauded a store clerk out of $1,300 for a suit and a pair...

I loved reading this study. I truly did.I loved it despite the fact that the authors themselves didn’t understand the meaning of their research. They thought it proved that White liberals are trying too hard to be “allies” of minorities, but what it in fact proved is that conservatives respect minorities as individuals and treat them just as they treat White people.The writeup itself is a bunch of liberal racist gobbledygook, filled with virtue signaling, misrepresentations, and blindness to the meaning of the findings.Glorious. Truly glorious. Levels of stupidity that only academics can achieve. I am pretty sure it was...

A former Manhattan district attorney’s office prosecutor refused to answer questions about Alvin Bragg’s 34-count felony indictment of former President Donald Trump after he was subpoenaed to appear by House Republicans. Mark Pomerantz, who resigned from the prosecutor’s office in February 2022 after District Attorney Bragg’s predecessor, Cyrus Vance, didn’t pursue the charges that were then finally filed earlier this year by Bragg, declined to answer any questions about the Trump investigation on Friday. “I am here because I respect the rule of law," Pomerantz said behind closed doors in front of the GOP-led House Judiciary Committee. “What I do...

It’s not clear exactly why these CUNY Law School grads decided to turn their backs on Mayor Adams but if I had to guess it was probably his reluctance to call the death of a Jordan Neely a murder and instead suggest people should wait for the results of an investigation. But the way it came across today was a bunch of leftists booing him for having once been a police officer.As the City University of New York School of Law dean, Sudha Setty, introduced the mayor on Friday, she noted his time spent on the police force. The crowd...

It’s always encouraging to see parents and others fighting back against the effort to sexualize children. At a time when progressives are trying desperately to introduce their ideology on sexuality and gender identity, people are using the legal system to put a stop to the movement to indoctrinate young minds in the classrooms.Nevada parents have filed a federal lawsuit against the Clark County School District (CCSD) after their 15-year-old child was allegedly forced to read a pornographic script during a class assignment. The incident, which took place in March 2022, involved the student being assigned a sexually explicit monologue written...

Avideo clip that captures Texas law enforcement reinforcing razor wire along its state's southern border has gone viral on Twitter in the wake of Title 42's expiration. The 1944 health measure was enacted during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic during the administration of then-President Donald Trump as a method to control the number of border crossings. Title 42 allows U.S. officials to expel migrants without going through a formal asylum process in order to prevent the spread of diseases. However, after President Joe Biden signed a measure declaring May 11 as the end of the COVID-19 emergency in the...

A former executive at ByteDance, the Chinese firm that owns the video app TikTok, has accused the company of having a “culture of lawlessness,” including stealing content and intellectual property from rivals Snapchat and Instagram, while also describing it as a “useful propaganda tool for the Chinese Communist Party.”Yintao Yu, former head of engineering for ByteDance’s U.S. operations from August 2017 to November 2018, made the allegations as part of a wrongful dismissal lawsuit filed on Friday. The lawsuit, submitted to the San Francisco Superior Court, contends that Mr. Yu was terminated due to his objections concerning a “worldwide scheme”...

It has been confirmed that Jameson Whiskey will no longer be exported to Russia just days after a picture of a recently-distilled bottle was pictured for sale in Moscow.Fine Gael Senator Garret Ahearn had called for French distributor Pernod Ricard to be added to the EU Sanctions list if they did not stop selling the product.The company resumed shipments to Russia last year after initially stalling exports following Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine.In a statement, a spokesperson for the group confirmed that Jameson and other Irish Distillers products will no longer be exported to or sold in Russia.They said: "Irish...

WORLD — A mysterious new virus is forcing millions of people around the world to call in sick to work today, according to sources. "We've never seen anything like this," said a World Health Organization spokesperson Chad Muskrat to reporters. "It seems to be exclusively affecting males between the ages of 10 and 40. So far, tens of millions in the U.S. alone have called in sick. We are urging everyone to stay in their homes and maybe relax on the couch while, I don't know, playing a video game or something." "Now if you'll excuse me, I'm feeling a...

In January 2022, California Governor Gavin Newsom gloated over his financial prowess in a tweet:NEW: With a surplus of over $45.7 BILLION — California is a model for the nation on how we can confront our greatest existential threats and make historic investments in our future.We can lead with science and still have a successful economy.— Gavin Newsom (@GavinNewsom) January 10, 2022That tweet hasn’t aged well, to put it mildly.On Friday, the exquisitely coiffed governor announced that not only had the surplus evaporated, but the state was actually running at a $32 billion deficit—$10 billion more than he had predicted...
