The canonized legacy of Cesar Chavez is collapsing under revelations that recast a sainted activist as a deeply flawed—and possibly predatory—man the Left can no longer easily defend. Cesar Chavez, founder of the United Farm Workers, eventually became the symbolic leader of the entire Mexican American community of the 1960s and 1970s. Indeed, he was eventually enshrined in the pantheon of modern leftist activists and civil rights leaders alongside Saul Alinsky, Martin Luther King Jr., and Betty Friedan. His Chavez Foundation today emphasizes Chavez’s saintlike status as “a genuinely religious and spiritual figure.” His Tehachapi redoubt remains a national monument....

Democrats and their media propaganda arm have kept one narrative vibrantly alive for at least six years: 2020 was the most honest, fraud-free election in American history. As evidence they say: “because we say so,” and present Joe Biden’s 306 electoral votes and his 81.2 million popular votes, the most ever in a presidential election, far more than those of Barack Obama--The Lightbringer—in either of his elections. Normal Americans have always been skeptical of those assertions, as Biden, who ran a campaign from his basement and was clearly already in the throes of dementia, shouldn’t have been able to win...

The Department of Education (ED) just took a big step closer to shutting down. The Trump administration announced on Thursday an interagency agreement between the ED and the Treasury to move student lending operations to the Treasury, which will "assume operational responsibility for collecting on defaulted Federal student loan debt and provide operational support to ED’s efforts to return borrowers to repayment," the ED said in a release. "I think we've been very clear about this last week that this is a multiphase process," Nicholas Kent, Undersecretary of Education, told Fox News Digital on Monday.

Iran launched a fresh wave of missiles at Israel Tuesday – only a day after President Trump said Washington and Tehran were having “constructive conversations” to end the conflict. Six people were injured following a strike in Tel Aviv and one munition, which damaged buildings and cars in the Israel city, contained 100 kilograms of explosives, the Times of Israel reported. Three buildings were significantly damaged by the Iranian warhead, according to Home Front Command official Col. Miki David. David said the projectile appeared smaller than conventional warheads fired by Iran. Iran also fired missiles on northern and southern Israel...

Coastal Florida towns are playing hot potato with spring breakers who use social media to organize “takeovers” of gatherings by drunken flash mobs, leading to violence and mass arrests. Cops locked down Daytona Beach this week after a string of shootings and a beach “takeover” that ended in a mass stampede of high-school and college students fleeing for their lives. That single “takeover” resulted in 133 arrests and prompted authorities to turn the entire beach into a party quarantine zone, with doubled fines for citations and strict limits on gathering sizes, according to the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office. Daytona had...

More than a dozen unsanctioned drones repeatedly swarmed a US Air Force base that is home to a nuclear bomber fleet — and were able to resist efforts to bring them down via jamming technology, according to military officials. The restricted airspace of Barksdale Air Force Base in Bossier City, Louisiana, was infiltrated by “multiple unauthorized drones” between March 9 and March 15, a base spokesperson told The Post. The 22-acre installation located east of Shreveport, hosts a fleet of B-52 bombers which can carry out nuclear strikes with “worldwide precision,” according to the Air Force.

Bill Cosby has been ordered to pay his rape accuser Donna Motsinger more than $19 million in damages after a jury found he had drugged and sexually assaulted her more than 50 years ago.

Motsinger first filed her civil lawsuit against the “Cosby Show” alum in Los Angeles Superior Court in September 2023.

Daily Readings from the USCCB“You belong to what is below, I belong to what is above. You belong to this world, but I do not belong to this world. That is why I told you that you will die in your sins. For if you do not believe that I AM, you will die in your sins.” John 8:23–24Tensions were growing as Jesus gradually unveiled the deeper reality of Who He is, while the Pharisees remained blind to the truth, obstinate in their opposition. When Jesus said, “you will die in your sins,” He was not speaking of a sin...

"Give us this day our daily bread" (Matt. 6:11). God is glorified when He meets your needs. In America, praying for our daily bread hardly seems necessary. Most people need to pray for self-control to avoid overeating! But Matthew 6:11 isn't talking about food only. It is a statement of dependency on God and an acknowledgment that He alone provides all of life's basic necessities. Sad to say, however, many people today have reduced prayer to a means of self-fulfillment. Recently a woman sent me a booklet and wrote, "I don't think you understand the true resource we have in...
