I believe life begins at conception. If I lived in Florida, I would support the state’s heartbeat bill and vote against the referendum seeking to liberalize Florida’s abortion laws. I supported the Dobbs decision and I support well-drafted abortion restrictions at the state and federal levels. I was a pro-life lawyer who worked for pro-life legal organizations. While I want prospective parents to be able to use I.V.F. to build their families, I do not believe that unused embryos should simply be discarded — thrown away as no longer useful.But I’m going to vote for Kamala Harris in 2024 and...

Vice President Kamala Harris’s 2024 campaign is seeking to avoid overstuffing the Democratic National Convention with celebrities to avoid making it seem like a “Hollywood liberal elite” event. The four-day event, scheduled to begin Aug. 19 in Chicago, will be selective over which celebrities it chooses to invite. The report comes after the party has had a history of doing events with major celebrities, including one in June with actors George Clooney, Julia Roberts, and Jack Black while President Joe Biden was still seeking reelection. “We are living in the most personalized media environment ever, so it’s crucial we are...

For four hours, one Black man after another — prominent politicians, activists, entertainers — laid out the challenges ahead for Ms....

Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that the Trump administration will start mass deportations with a million people. Anchor Jonathan Karl said, “One of the proposals in the platform you’ve talked about, and Trump has talked about, is a mass deportation. You said he said he’ll start with the easy ones, the criminals, people who commit crimes, deport them, but he said deporting 15 million to 20 million people, how do you actually do that?

There's a lot of talk about shepherds being for sale lately, and if this isn't that problem in spades, I don't know what is. Our boy Woke Preacher Clips did the painstaking work to put together a montage that's nearly 7 minutes long, featuring more than 50 pastors, all saying the exact same thing about Kamala Harris a couple of weeks ago. This is insane:

One has to wonder, who are those people who have come out of the woodwork, ostensibly to support the vacuous, inarticulate Kamala Harris? She was very unpopular when she tried to run for president in 2020. She was still unpopular when she was Biden’s DEI hire as vice president; she fulfilled his promise to select a black woman.Biden did so without regard for her merit or competency. Everyone knows that. So now, suddenly manufactured crowds appear at her rallies this past week and display what seems to be a hypnotized mob. The obvious answer is they are so mind-numbed they...

resident Biden admitted he was pushed out of the presidential race by Democratic Party elites and specifically name-dropped former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi as one of the perpetrators in his first TV interview since the tectonic news last month. Biden said that Dems in the House and Senate were worried that he’d drag down their chances of being reelected. He said he believed his reelection bid would face too many distractions if he carried on. “A number of my Democratic colleagues in the House and Senate thought that I was going to hurt them in the races. And I was...

So I have common Bermuda grass (not sure exactly what kind)here in the burbs of hotlanta. I have a crabgrass and clover issue that has been frustrating to control. I’d been using bioadvanced previously and it didn’t control the weeds like I thought it would. My grass is pretty green though. Any recommendations for my lawn that’ll help. My back will appreciate any feedback. Pulling those weeds are a pain.

Russia has failed to push back Ukrainian troops in the Kursk region despite sending in reinforcements as the incursion enters its sixth day, Ukrainian soldiers involved in its army’s operation told the Financial Times on Sunday. Speaking near the international border, the troops said they remained in Russian territory. Russian general Valery Gerasimov has repeatedly attempted to portray the situation as being under control, with the defence ministry posting videos on Sunday of fighter jets and helicopters purportedly striking columns of Ukrainian equipment. But verified videos and photographs show Ukrainian troops and equipment have advanced 30km inside Russia since the...

President Joe Biden said on “CBS Sunday Morning” that if former President Donald Trump wins in November he will be a “genuine danger to American security.” Reporter Robert Costa asked, “How do you want history to remember President Biden?” Biden said, “That he proved democracy can work. He got us out of a pandemic—it produced the single greatest economic recovery in American history. We are the most powerful economy in the world. We have more to do, and it demonstrated that we can pull the nation together.”

ROME — Pope Francis prayed Sunday for the victims of the 1945 atomic bombing of the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, a topic he has returned to on numerous occasions. In these days we have commemorated “the anniversary of the atomic bombing of the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki,” the pontiff told visitors gathered in Saint Peter’s Square for his weekly Angelus address.
