How the Left spawns femicidal terror. The United Nations calls it “femicide,” the wanton assault, rape and murder of girls and women. It’s a cultural epidemic in Latin America.Femicide is visible every step of the way from South America and the Northern Triangle countries to the Mexico-U.S. border. Rape trees, where women’s panties hang from branches, and rape tents, where girls and women are dragged by smugglers, dot the route. Do you think the rapes stop when illegals cross into the U.S.? No.Now women are being victimized by migrants bringing femicide to your neighborhood. Where are the women’s rights groups?...

Fauci says Biden 'right on point on things,' though did not elaborate. Dr. Anthony Fauci on Sunday spoke about President Biden’s age following the president’s much-criticized debate performance against former President Trump. Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, appeared on ABC's "This Week" and was asked about whether Biden, who is 81 years old, should be running for re-election. "You know, I think it's just an individual choice, and you really can't generalize," Fauci said. Fauci, who helped lead the nation’s response to the coronavirus pandemic, said one must look at each person...

Russia dropped dozens of its glide bombs on its own territory between April 2023 to April 2024, an intercepted internal document found. At least 38 of the munitions fell on the Belgorod region close to Ukraine, according to The Washington Post, which cited bomb cleanup and evacuation documents obtained by Ukrainian intelligence. The majority of bombs, largely undetonated, were found by civilians in areas surrounding the city. Four bombs have hit the city of Belgorod itself. The first recorded accidental bomb drop fell on a central street in Belgorod in April 2023, creating a 65ft crater, shattering windows and blowing...

Daily Readings from the USCCB“Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.” Jesus answered him, “Foxes have dens and birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to rest his head.” Matthew 8:19–20It is unclear from this passage alone why Jesus answered this scribe the way He did. At first, the statement of the scribe seems very devout: “Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.” But many of the Church Fathers, in their reflections of this conversation between Jesus and the scribe, offer helpful insights. First of all, note that Jesus neither accepts the...

In 2018, a study of aerial photos of 700 Pacific Islands showed that 89% were the same size or growing. This rather destroyed the idea that sea levels were swallowing small nations. The New York Times said nothing. Indeed, the only Pacific things shrinking were deserted sand drifts. No islands bigger than 10 hectares were getting smaller. Measured in square kilometers that’s “0.1”. Despite the media headlines and delegations from Kiribati and Tuvulu begging for money to hold back the tide, no islands with people living on them were shrinking. None, not one island in the Pacific big enough to...

Billionaire Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker failed to deliver jobs promised for black workers in the emerging cannabis and green energy industries, an economic advocacy group said in a scathing report. Pritzker – considered a potential replacement for President Joe Biden at the top of the Democratic ticket – will be hosting the Democratic National Convention on his Chicago turf in August. “Governor Pritzker wants the DNC to celebrate his leadership of the state. However, it would be an injustice to do so without acknowledging the deteriorating state of affairs for Black communities, especially in Chicago,” said Darius Jones, senior advisor...

As the left finally realizes that President Joe Biden’s age and fitness for office are pretty much non-existent, media outlets have begun floating the idea that the only answer is to put Hillary Clinton on the ticket with him, replacing Kamala Harris. The idea came from Washington Post Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist Kathleen Parker, who argued that Vice President Kamala Harris having to “step up” to complete Biden’s third term could be bad for the Democratic ticket ahead of November’s presidential election.

A federal appeals court will allow a key part of Biden’s student loan relief plan to resume as the legal challenges against it unfold.
