In a recent article, Emily Wood Hawley passionately remarks, “Marriage does not truly exist outside of what God established — a sacred union between one man and one woman for life — because the state cannot redefine an institution God ordained.” The redefinition Hawley is referring to is the Obergefell v. Hodges decision of 2015. Justice Anthony Kennedy wrote the majority opinion which was handed down in a 5-4 vote stating that homosexual marriage was a Constitutionally legitimate right that belonged to all homosexuals in the USA. Justice Kennedy gave three reasons in SCOTUS’ landmark decision why homosexual marriage is...

Tuesday pro-Hamas “peaceful” protests in the Colombian cities of Bogotá and Medellín concluded with numerous acts of vandalism and clashes between violent protesters and law enforcement, leaving several injured. Colombian leftists held a series of pro-Hamas rallies on Tuesday in Bogotá, Medellín, and other cities to mark the second anniversary of Hamas’ brutal terrorist attack on Israel, in which the jihadist group killed, raped, and tortured random civilians, including children and newborn babies, leaving some 1,200 people dead and hundreds taken hostage. The protests appear to have the tacit endorsement of Colombian far-left President Gustavo Petro, who shared footage of...

No criminal charges will be filed in the case of August Borden, the Deshler High School teen who was seriously injured in August.

Van Jones blames “the Jews” for media silence on Nigerian massacres—but the real reason isn’t anti-Semitic conspiracy; it’s the left’s selective outrage and ideological blind spots. Van Jones, the CNN host and commentator, recently complained that neither the global left nor the mainstream media are covering the horrific violence against Nigerian civilians by Islamic terrorists. True, they are not reporting the slaughter. Truer still, they should be. However, Van Jones went completely off the rails when he blamed “the Jews.” Or as he put it, “No Jews, no news”—a stereotyped statement as anti-Semitic as it is untrue. In truth, lots...

An Indiana man accused of stabbing a 69-year-old at a gas station has ignited outrage after records revealed a staggering criminal history – nearly 100 prior arrests – with little to show in the way of punishment. Courtney Boose, 41, was arrested after the alleged gas-station stabbing, according to the Lawrence Police Department and Fox 59, which reported that Boose has been arrested 99 times over the years on charges ranging from theft and trespassing to battery. Despite that record, court documents reviewed by Fox News Digital show he’s never served a day in state prison. Boose’s long paper trail...

During remarks on the Senate floor Wednesday, Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) President Trump's lethal strikes against alleged Venezuelan narco boats in international waters.

Reuters on Monday published a report on InfinitUs Marketing Solutions, a Philippine marketing agency that was allegedly hired by the Communist Chinese government to wage an “infowar” campaign against America’s security alliance with the government in Manila. Much of the activity China paid for consisted of old-fashioned astroturfing — fake social media accounts created by InfinitUs Marketing Solutions to make it look like a groundswell of Filipinos were in love with China, hated the United States, and wanted their own government to stop resisting China’s aggressive territorial claims in the South China Sea. According to documents obtained by Reuters and...

A Texas mother was shot dead outside a PetSmart after confronting a young woman who failed to say 'thank you' when she held the door open for her. Cecilia Simpson, 41, was out shopping with her daughter in Dallas’s Oak Cliff neighborhood on Tuesday when an argument over a woman’s lack of manners exploded into gunfire - leaving the mother dead from multiple bullet wounds. The suspect, 22-year-old Keona Zachyua Hampton, told police she was 'just trying to get Simpson away from her,' according to an arrest affidavit obtained by Fox 5 News. She was taken into custody at Dallas...

MARION, OH (MARION COUNTY NOW)—A Marion County Grand Jury has indicted Xiaoping Peng, a 53-year-old resident of Chicago, Illinois, on multiple serious charges linked to a prostitution enterprise operating out of the Chinese Spa located at 1288 Delaware Avenue in Marion. The indictment includes charges of engaging in a pattern of corrupt activity, two counts of trafficking in persons for involuntary servitude, and two counts of promoting prostitution. Peng was arraigned today in front of Judge Todd Anderson, who set his bond at a staggering $1,000,000. A Chinese national, Peng allegedly entered the United States illegally during the Biden administration...

Blue Fascism Deuteronomy 13:4 (King James Version) Ye shall walk after the Lord your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him. The Democrat National Socialist Party has become one of the most violent Party’s in the history of the United States. They have nothing left to run on other than Trump is Hitler or whoever is the worst human they can label to keep their violence growing. They have been organizing these Antifa groups since Barak who was a radical Communist who tried to turn America...

I'm bummed guys. For the past few days this site is virtually unusable. The words on the screen are teeny tiny to where I can only read them if I super magnify, but then on a cell phone, It's not really feasible. What happened and is there anything I can do?

A Florida man booked for alleged drug possession was also carrying much larger contraband — a thermos that he apparently shoved up his rectum before he was captured, authorities said. Walter Frymire, 51, was arrested for the 26th time Saturday evening after someone called in reports of a naked man in a restroom at a public park. An X-ray of Frymire clearly depicted a foreign object lodged in his body and poking from his hip up to his rib. The foreign object was a thermos that Frymire said he “didn’t swallow.” “You might have thought Walter was bringing drugs into...

Sarah Hartsfield, the Texas woman accused of killing her most recent husband with a fatal dose of insulin two years ago, was convicted of murder Wednesday. The verdict came after about an hour of deliberations and seven days of testimony in a trial that focused almost as much on allegations from Hartsfield’s past as it did on the death of Joseph Hartsfield — her fifth husband — on Jan. 15, 2023. In her closing argument Wednesday, Chambers County Assistant District Attorney Mallory Vargas said Sarah Hartsfield believed she’d get away with her husband’s murder “because it’s what she’s always done.”

Kennedy didn’t hold back as he read aloud what Democrats are fighting to restore. “We found that under President Biden, they were spending $3 million for circumcisions and vasectomies in Zambia,” he said. “We took that out. The congresswoman says, ‘We’re gonna shut down government until you put that back in.’” And that was just the beginning. “We found $500,000 of American taxpayer money for electric buses in Rwanda...” “We found $3.6 million for pastry cooking classes and dance focus groups for male prostitutes in Haiti. I kid you not. I’m not making this up. It was in the budget...

Fifty years ago — Oct. 1, 1962 — the first black student was admitted to the University of Mississippi, a bastion of the Old South. The town of Oxford erupted. It took some 30,000 U.S. troops, federal marshals and national guardsmen to get James Meredith to class after a violent campus uprising. Two people were killed and more than 300 injured. Some historians say the integration of Ole Miss was the last battle of the Civil War. It was a high-stakes showdown between President Kennedy and Mississippi Gov. Ross Barnett. "I'm a Mississippi segregationist and I am proud of it,"...

If Zhen Xu hadn't annoyed her lab mates, she might never have discovered a groundbreaking treatment for liver cancer. As a PhD student in biomedical engineering at the University of Michigan in the US during the early 2000s, Xu was trying to find a way for doctors to destroy and remove diseased tissue without the need for invasive surgery. She'd landed on the idea of using high-frequency sound waves – ultrasound – to mechanically break up tissue and was testing her theory on pig hearts. Ultrasound isn't supposed to be audible to human ears, but Xu was using such a...

An Australian woman has sparked a heated online debate after calling out members of the Indian community in Melbourne for allegedly dumping trash into a local water body following a festival. Her post, which quickly went viral on X, drew both outrage and reflection from users worldwide. The woman, who goes by @TruthFairy131, did not hold back in her criticism of residents in Mernda. Referring to them as “filthy pigs,” she wrote: “Shame on you for dumping all of your rubbish into our waterways after your Indian Festival last Saturday. You would want to get down there ASAP & collect...

Every road death they cause is an indictment of the Democrats’ desperate efforts to flood the country with illegal aliens. In 1965, Ralph Nader published Unsafe at Any Speed: The Designed-In Dangers of the American Automobile, a book attacking the automobile industry’s resistance to making cars safer. That title got stuck in my head when I read, within minutes of each other, two stories about illegal aliens causing deadly car crashes. The people that Democrats deliberately imported into the country and whom they’re fighting to keep here are making our roads less comfortable and more deadly. As readers know, I...
