Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton warned that white men of a “certain religion” are responsible for “so much damage” just two weeks after the assassination of Turning Point USA co-founder Charlie Kirk. Clinton, 77, made the remarks during a segment Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” in which the two-time Democratic presidential candidate said America has yet to achieve the “more perfect union” spoken of by former President Abraham Lincoln. “We haven't gotten to the more perfect union, and we fought a Civil War over part of it. And people have been protesting for hundreds of years that things were...

Eliana Johnson September 16, 2025 Young conservatives and Trump voters have a largely positive view of Israel and strongly approve of the way President Donald Trump is handling the U.S.-Israel relationship, a Washington Free Beacon poll found. That’s true even for those who tune in to or get their news from anti-Israel podcasters like Nick Fuentes, Tucker Carlson, and Candace Owens. The poll, conducted in late August, surveyed over 1,000 young conservatives between the ages of 18 and 34. These young people support Trump’s handling of America’s relationship...

The poll also found that adherence to atheism within the same age demographic dropped from 49% in August 2021 to 32% four years later. The Rt. Rev. Jill Duff, who serves as the bishop of Lancaster, attributed the statistics in part to the growing number of young people who are spiritually searching, according to The Telegraph.

Now it's Christianity's turn to be mocked by the Palestinian Authority. While it's PA policy to insult, mock and misrepresent Jewish tradition and Jewish history in the land of Israel whenever possible, this week it was Christian traditions' turn to be insulted and denied by the PA. In the words of the official PA daily columnist, Christian traditions of the Holy Sepulcher and the Holy Grail are "nonsense," because Jesus doesn't belong to Christian tradition but belongs to the Palestinians.

In fact there are suspicions that Al-Julani’s own forces slaughtered the entire staff at Suweida’s hospital along with their patients and carried out extrajudicial executions. The international community has been...

Failed Democratic Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams isn’t ruling out a third run for governor of the Peach State, and said in a Tuesday interview that true Christians should have left-leaning views.

Under Iran’s theocratic regime, Christians – especially converts from Islam – already face severe restrictions and opposition. The country is number nine on the World Watch List, and Iranian believers are often viewed as Western-influenced ‘threats to the state’. Persecution includes long prison sentences for ordinary house church members for the vaguely worded charge of ‘acting against national security by connecting with ‘Zionist’ Christian organisations’. With tensions now erupting between Iran and Israel, experts warn that Iranian Christians will be even more targeted with suspicion and repression. “Instead of protecting the people, the Iranian government is now arresting anyone caught...

As a dual American and an Israeli, July 4 has always had a dual special meaning. That is, since 1976, America’s bicentennial. Like many American children, the year leading up to and during the bicentennial was a period of sharing national pride in all that America stood for, and its history. Growing up in a town with a famous revolutionary war battlefield, the reenactment of that battle made things extra vivid. As an Israeli, it is remarkable to me that after 200 years, the U.S. was able to celebrate its independence by reenacting the war in which it fought to...
