Yesterday the Pennsylvania state House passed the measure for abortions up to birth by one vote. Not only would it allow abortions on demand throughout pregnancy, it would force Pennsylvania residents to fund abortions. ““House Bill 1957 is a highly regressive form of legislation which would wipe out protections against taxpayer funding of abortion at a time when the vast majority of taxpayers do not want their hard-earned money to pay for abortion,” said Maria Gallagher, executive director for the Pennsylvania Pro-Life Federation, the Keystone State affiliate of National Right to Life. “The vote was as tight as it could...

US Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) warned that American churches are "asleep" as antisemitism spreads in an address last Thursday to the Israel Allies Foundation in Washington, D.C., the Jewish News Syndicate reported. “We find ourselves facing echoes of the same hatred which fueled the Holocaust," Cruz said. “The world’s response to the October 7 attacks made clear that the hatred of the Jewish people did not end in 1945. The hatred that fueled the Holocaust is still alive today and is not confined to geography.” “The poison is yielding results, especially among young people. The poison pouring into their ears...

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) highlighted how he wanted “to see” transgender children, and that there is “no governor that’s done more pro-trans legislation” than he has. During an interview on an episode of The Ezra Klein Show, with New York Times columnist Ezra Klein, Newsom described President Donald Trump as being “One of the most destructive presidents and human beings” in Newsom’s lifetime. […] “We didn’t get into trans sports. That’s an issue no one wants to hear about because 80 percent of the people listening disagree with my position on this,” Newsom shared. “But it comes from my...

[Catholic Caucus] Beware the Trojan Horse in the Synodal ChurchA small work is now circulating in the Catholic world that is shrouded in mystery. Published this fall by Catholics for Catholics, it is titled: The Trojan Horse in the Catholic Church—Synod of Synodality: The Attempt to Invert the Bride of Christ’s Hierarchy and Moral Order. What makes the book so mysterious and controversial is that no one knows from whence it came. The author is listed as just Fr. Enoch. Nothing is known about this priest save that he fears retribution and therefore writes under an assumed name. His choice...

Far-left New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani hasn’t even taken office yet, but the state has already been hard at work coddling illegal aliens and defying the Trump administration’s efforts to get criminal non-citizens off the streets. In fact, in this year alone, they’ve released almost 7,000 illegals, some of them accused of nasty crimes.These are the kind of people the left-leaning state is protecting instead of its citizens:New York state has released nearly 7,000 known illegal migrant criminals without notifying ICE since President Trump took office — including murderers, sexual predators and a maniac booted from the US eight...

Former Secretary of State and presidential candidate Hillary Clinton said that “abortion bans have killed another woman in Texas” in response to a ProPublica report published Wednesday. Clinton’s comments came in a Wednesday post on the social platform X, which included a link to ProPublica’s story. According to the outlet, a 37-year-old woman named Tierra Walker had been dealing with health issues during her pregnancy. She faced increasing blood pressure and diabetes and was aware she faced a raised chance of potentially fatal pregnancy complication, according to ProPublica. In mid-October of last year, Walker decided it was necessary to request...

A review of the new film and a look at its public health relevance todayEighty years ago, on November 20, 1945, one of the most unusual and important court trials in history began.

The math teachers from Cienega High School outside Tucson came under fire when Andrew Kolvet, a Turning Point USA (TPUSA) spokesperson, claimed they were making light of the activist's murder. 'Concerned parents just sent us this image of what’s believed to be teachers... mocking Charlie Kirk’s murder with costumes,' Kolvet wrote in a since-deleted X post, according to KJZZ. A photo shared by the Vail School District depicted...

The movie begins with a suicide at a skyscraper in Philadelphia. Later that day, five people who have business to conduct in this same skyscraper, board an elevator. Their sins, their pride, and their backgrounds lead them, by unusual circumstances and timing, to elevator 6. Ben Larson (Bookeme Woodbine) just started working at this building as a Security Guard who has a violent past.

A Texas doctor has surrendered her medical license after being sued by Attorney General Ken Paxton over her prescribing of so-called cross sex hormones to children in the state. In October 2024, Paxton sued May Lay, a Dallas-based doctor, for providing "high-dose cross-sex hormones to twenty-one minor patients for the direct purpose of 'transitioning' the child’s biological sex," using false diagnoses and billing codes. This went against a bill passed in Texas in 2023 that prohibits medicinal and surgical procedures for the purposes of changing a child’s gender. Lau had previously entered into a Rule 11 agreement, which prohibited her...

That's enough of that.In decades past, as the effects of climate change slowly became undeniable, some looked to the super-rich — the billionaires with enough cash to really make a splash — for solutions. They backed green energy campaigns and carbon capture programs, pushed plastics recycling and climate change messaging. New products hit the market as ethical consumption became the rule of the day: electric vehicles, solar panels, reusable bags, carbon-neutral dryer balls. By the early 2020s, billionaires had positioned themselves as the masters of climate change policy, taking advantage of their great fortunes to become indispensable to environmentalism. Now,...

Yesterday, I was glancing at the television at the barber shop and I saw an advertisement for the SPLC for $19/month. They will give you a T-shirt that says 'Stop Hate'. I guess the SPLC got funding cut off by DOGE... 😀 I guess I'll send them a note -- F You, SPLC.

President Trump wanted an excuse to send National Guard troops to Chicago, and now he’s got one. The Windy City in recent days has done its best imitation of Los Angeles, where resistance to Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations created the justification for a Guard deployment a couple months ago. Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson hate the notion of the National Guard in the streets of the city, but have failed to rally Chicago residents to do the one thing necessary to avoid the deployment — let federal officers do their job.The word should have gone...

One of the world’s most infamous actresses attempted to troll Trump supporters on social media, but it blew up in her face when users answered her snarky question with brilliance. “Wicked” star Ariana Grande shared an Instagram post on Sunday trashing the Trump administration’s policies, including immigration, trans issues, and free speech. She then posed a question meant to embarrass the president’s 77 million supporters. The message reads as follows: I want to check in with trump voters. I have one very genuine question: it’s been 250 days. now that immigrants have been violently torn from their families and communities...

A Houston youth baseball coach was nearly gunned down earlier this week while kneeling before God with his young players in a senseless crime. As Fox News reported, a coach for the Texas Colts was in a pregame prayer with his players on Sunday when three people fired gunshots in their direction from a nearby pasture. Video of the incident obtained by local news outlets shows the 12-year-old players running to safety while the bullets fly. One adult is struck and collapses to the ground next to home plate.

Disgraced former FBI agent Peter Strzok has lost his long-running lawsuit claiming he was illegally fired for sending messages attacking President Trump during his first term. Strzok had argued that he was only fired in 2018 because Trump reacted furiously to texts the agent exchanged while investigating ties between Russia and the Republicans’ 2016 campaign. But US District Judge Amy Berman Jackson ruled Tuesday that Strzok failed to show it violated his First Amendment rights. The judge, appointed by President Barack Obama, praised Strzok as having been “among the FBI’s leading counterintelligence experts” — but ruled that there was “no...

Reverend Howard-John Wesley received a minute-long standing ovation from his congregants yesterday, a week after his nasty anti-Charlie Kirk sermon went viral. We previously wrote about him after he used used Proverbs 30 to argue in FAVOR of LGBTQ relationships. Following the assassination of Charlie Kirk, Wesley, the senior pastor of the Alfred Street Baptist Church in Virginia, preached last week in a widely circulated message: “Charlie Kirk did not deserve to be assassinated, but I’m overwhelmed seeing the flags of the United States of America at half-staff, calling this nation to honor and venerate a man who was an...

A wicked leftist from California is not taking the reality of consequence culture very well after mocking Charlie Kirk’s assassination. As The Gateway Pundit reported, influencer Megan Farina went on TikTok earlier this week and posted a video poking fun at Kirk’s death by making a sarcastic and evil remark. This is what Farina said about Kirk. Does she sound like someone who deserves any sympathy? “Gather ’round, b****es,” she said, in a vocal fry register that speaks of someone who’s spent too much time with wannabe girlbosses and/or smoking Marlboro Reds. “Join hands and bow our heads in thoughts...

Charlie Kirk’s murder sparked peaceful resolve, not riots—sharply contrasting the violence, destruction, and radical agendas unleashed after George Floyd’s death. Just days after the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the left is working overtime to hide the truth and create fantasies about his death. Specifically, leftists alleged that conservatives were going to “pounce” on the death to wage protests and boost radical agendas in the manner of what followed George Floyd’s death. Here are some of the lies that such a ridiculous narrative entails. One, Charlie Kirk is not conservatives’ George Floyd. There were no mass riots after his death of...

This is merely one of the 'pied pipers' promoting the radical left's violence which they are publicly owning since 9/10/25 in the wake of their collective assassination of Charlie Kirk. The entirety of the post: Popular streamer Destiny refuses to condemn the assassination of Charlie Kirk, says "you need conservatives to be afraid of getting killed." "On Piers Morgan: "I won't condemn anything until [Trump] can go on air and say all of us need to calm down." On stream: "You need conservatives to be afraid of getting killed when they go to events so that they look to their...
