The Washington Post is not a serious newspaper: Washington Post If more mothers stay home to care for their children ... Who's going to stay at the office and take care of the corporate profits?! You can feel the visceral terror this strikes in the heart of the author. From the Washington Post article: The share of working mothers ages 25 to 44 with young children has fallen nearly every month this year, dropping by nearly 3 percentage points between January and June, to the lowest level in more than three years, … How bad is it? This bad: The...

A group of over 100 bicycles, dirt bikes and motorized scooters were seen riding on and through highways and tunnels in Boston Saturday afternoon, police said.

Former Sen. Sherrod Brown of Ohio announced Monday he is launching a comeback bid, giving Democrats a boost in their longshot campaign to win back control of the Senate. With no serious primary competition, Brown’s announcement effectively kicks off a nearly 15-month general election face-off against Sen. Jon Husted, a Republican appointed earlier this year by Gov. Mike DeWine to fill the seat vacated by JD Vance when he became vice president. Brown, 72, was heavily courted by Democrats who saw him as their only hope to flip a Senate seat in an increasingly out-of-reach red state. Brown has cultivated...

Daily Readings from the USCCB“If you wish to be perfect, go, sell what you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.” When the young man heard this statement, he went away sad, for he had many possessions. Matthew 19:21–22This is the conclusion to the conversation that Jesus had with a rich young man who came to Him and asked, “Teacher, what good must I do to gain eternal life?” Jesus went on to tell him to keep the commandments. The young man said he has done so from his youth...

A bombshell revelation is brewing in Washington. According to a high-level source inside the Trump administration, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard is now reviewing a secret dossier on the December 6, 2024 coup d’état in Romania—one that points directly to former Biden regime officials. The file reportedly names three top Biden operatives: disgraced Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, his assistant James O’Brien, and U.S. Ambassador to Bucharest Kathleen Kavalec. Their fingerprints, according to the source, are all over Romania’s election annulment. In a scheme that looks eerily familiar, the Biden crew allegedly teamed up with Romanian insiders—including former Foreign...

Key Points Novo Nordisk said it now offers cash-paying U.S. patients its blockbuster diabetes treatment Ozempic for less than half its monthly list price through multiple platforms. Patients can pay $499 in cash per month for three dose sizes of Ozempic through the drug’s official website, Novo Nordisk’s patient assistance program, the company’s recently launched direct-to-consumer online pharmacy and drug savings company GoodRx, among other platforms. It comes after Trump in July sent separate letters to Novo Nordisk and 16 other drugmakers, calling on them to take steps to lower medication prices in the U.S.

...immigration and Homeland Security agents, along with San Bernardino police, surrounded the family’s home, according to the Inland Coalition for Immigrant Justice. They remained at the scene until 3:45 p.m., despite never presenting a warrant, “pressuring the individual to come outside and placing the entire family in fear,” the organization said in a statement to CNN. “This is a clear abuse of power. Firing at civilians, detaining families without cause, and silencing community voices is unacceptable and must end,” the organization said....

You can say goodbye to MSNBC, at least the name, because the network is separating from NBC news. With this parting comes a new name. Eschewing the common conservative nickname "MSDNC," and ignoring the brilliant Rush Limbaugh's branding of "PMSNBC," the network went a different direction. 👇 MS NOW! "My Source News, Opinion, World" is the latest attempt for the far-left network to shake off the stigma that has come with their brand over the last few decades. So ... the name has changed but nothing else has changed. Stelter has more: You might recall that when Comcast first announced...

When U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) Director Joe Edlow returned for another stint in the Trump administration, he expected to wrangle with a mess left by the Biden administration’s border crisis. Soon, however, Edlow would be met with a surprise. Not only was USCIS forced to tackle a record-setting pile of asylum cases, but he was tasked with leading an agency that, for 4 years, did very little to address immigration fraud. The director has since buckled down on asylum fraud, identifying discrepancies in immigration programs and tightening election integrity. “What I didn’t know was what some of our...

Answer We believe that the Sabbath was instituted in Eden before sin entered, that it was honored of God, set apart by divine appointment, and given to mankind as the perpetual memorial of a finished creation. It was based upon the fact that God Himself had rested from His work of creation, had blessed His Sabbath, or rest day, and had sanctified it, or set it apart for man (Gen. 2:1-3; Mark 2:27). We believe, further, that it was none other than the Son of God Himself, the second person of the eternal Godhead, who was the Creator of Genesis...

President Trump took the adage about finding yourself in a hole and stopping digging to heart, at least when it comes to illegal immigration, where his almost miraculous improvements at the southern border have resulted in the first sustained decrease in the immigration court backlog in nearly two decades. In little more than six months, Mr. Trump pared the Biden-era backlog of more than 4.2 million pending cases before immigration judges to 3.8 million. Some of that is because of better efficiency in the immigration courts, officially known as the Executive Office for Immigration Review. However, “the real change has...
