Authorities in Cleveland, Ohio said that in just a two-week span in the month of May, nearly 30 children have disappeared. They are unsure if the disappearances are related to gang activity, human trafficking, or some other unrelated issue. They speculated that a majority of the cases are runaways but warned that teenagers are susceptible to predators who are like ‘wolves in sheep’s clothing’, particularly while they are running...

They go by names such as Sisters: Edith Myflesh,...

NEW YORK – Amid a mounting debate in America over the constitutionality of gun control, Cardinal Joseph Tobin of Newark has entered the fray with a different argument: That people should voluntarily forgo their Second Amendment rights for the betterment of society. “I honestly believe it is the best thing we can do to change the culture of violence that threatens us today,” Tobin said. “Let’s voluntarily set aside our rights in order to witness the truth that only peace and never violence, is the way to build a free society that is lived concretely in our homes, our neighborhoods,...

Why The Black Community is Poor

The university named for Our Lady betrays the Catholic faith.SOUTH BEND, Indiana (LifeSiteNews) — Catholic University of Notre Dame says it is officially supporting “Pride Month.”“Happy #PrideMonth!

The people who abused their power and imposed tyranny during the pandemic will do it again if we don’t hold them accountable. He doesn’t exactly say who sinned, just that “We got things wrong,” and “Some officials made mistakes in the early days.” Things happened. Mistakes were made. It’s time to move on. Miller’s argument is basically a warmed-over, lightly Christianized version of the essay Brown University economics professor Emily Oster wrote for The Atlantic last November, which argued for a “pandemic amnesty” on account of how “uncertain” and “complicated” things were in the face of a once-in-a-century pandemic like...

Pray For The Peace of JerusalemLuke 11 Woes on the Pharisees and the Experts in the Law 37 When Jesus had finished speaking, a Pharisee invited him to eat with him; so he went in and reclined at the table. 38 But the Pharisee was surprised when he noticed that Jesus did not first wash before the meal. 39 Then the Lord said to him, “Now then, you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness. 40 You foolish people! Did not the one who made the outside make the...

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden promised voters in 2020 that he knew how to get things done in Washington and could bring stability to the capital. It seemed like a message out of step with the more combative era brought on by Donald Trump. But Biden prevailed, and as he seeks a second term, he’s again trying to frame the race as a referendum on competence and governance, pointing to the bipartisan debt limit and budget legislation he signed on Saturday as another exemplar of the success of his approach. His approach, favoring pragmatism over Trumpian pugilism, will be...

There was a time when comedy was free to do or say just about anything as long as it made the audience laugh. Not anymore. The late-night comedy shows are no longer “set-up – the punchline,” they are “complain about the other side – applause line.” They are nightly mini-political conventions so afraid of straying from anything their audience finds agreeable that they’re boring. Same thing with movies and stand-up comedy; they’re all wildly predictable because participants aren’t free, either by fear or choice, to take the ballsy risks that made those professions worthy of admiration. It’s pathetic. But there...

This is Newt Gingrich defending President George Bush 41 on the bill that raised taxes called the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990. In all fairness to Newt, he and all but 10 Republicans voted against it, but listen to the way he defends Bush. It is the same as people defending the GOP today. This interview occurred on the Bob Grant Show on 10/25/1990. The bill was passed on 11/5/1990. ”>< /a>

Utah needs a proven fighter and conservative voice in Washington. Last month, Riverton Republican Mayor Trent Staggs, who became widely known in 2020 for his strong stance against mask mandates during the COVID-19 pandemic, announced he is running for Senate to unseat incumbent RINO Sen. Mitt Romney. Stagg’s campaign emphasizes the need for a fearless representative who is unafraid to stand against the Washington establishment and fight for the interests of Utahans. Highlighting the challenges faced by the nation and the state, Stagg outlined his plan to address critical issues that he believes have been neglected by current leadership. “Right...

Please pray for my brother. He's had cancer in the past, and has had recent symptoms and tests leading to more tests. He's waiting on the results, very worried.

Please pray for him and his son.
