The comedian, 63, took to social media this week to ask for prayers after her oldest daughter, Chelsea, was sentenced to prison for violating the terms of her probation for drug charges. O’Donnell and her then-partner, Kelli Carpenter, adopted Chelsea shortly after she was born in 1997. Last year, Chelsea was arrested in Wisconsin three different times between September and December. On Sept. 10, O’Donnell’s 28-year-old daughter was arrested on felony charges that included child neglect and possession of methamphetamine. One month after posting bail and being released, Chelsea was arrested again on more felony counts that included bail jumping,...

Young people seem to have a favorable view of socialism. This comes as somewhat of a surprise to older generations, whose experiences with that doctrine have understandably led to less approving opinions of it. It seems that young people approve of socialism in defiance of indisputable facts. Relevant facts may be summarized in such observations as “socialism has failed every time it has been tried,” and “socialism has been responsible for hundreds of millions of deaths in the last century.” Despite readily available evidence in support of these assertions, young people seem unmoved by them. The reasons for this are...

The Radical Left (“RL”) no longer has a coherent message. President Trump, with his platform focused on restoring public order, promoting economic prosperity, securing the borders, advocating for merit-based policies, and opposing the inclusion of boys in girls’ sports, among other issues, appealed to voters, resulting in his landslide victory in 2024. The RL’s rebranding as Democratic Socialism (Mamdani, AOC, and Sanders) is nothing more than the Old Pied Piper promise of a new utopia if given more public money and power. The RL’s Marxist/Islamofascist ideology remains fundamentally at odds with and a real threat to our constitutional republic. The...

I doubt most people realize that Nigeria, located in West Africa, is the world’s sixth most populous country, with around 213.5 million people. Over 53% of the population is Muslim. That’s never a good thing for the remaining population in a country, because Muslims do not believe in pluralism. Lately, Nigeria’s Muslims have been on a rampage, slaughtering Christians left and right. President Trump announced yesterday that the U.S. will intervene and will do so aggressively if necessary. Democrats were unimpressed—they don’t believe there’s a genocide—but Nigeria’s president, having first rejected the demand, just announced his willingness to accept the...

In 2025, there is no part of the world that is safe for Christians. Leftist prosecutors in Europe, Australia, Canada, and the United States criminalize fundamental tenets of the Christian faith as discriminatory forms of “hate speech.” Chinese communists replace images of Jesus Christ with portraits of Xi Jinping. Hindus beat and murder Christians in India. Islamic nations sentence Christian converts to death. Nigerian Muslims attack Christian churches during prayer services and torture and murder so many Christian worshipers as to constitute genocide. The assassin who murdered Christian martyr Charlie Kirk allegedly did so because he believes that Charlie’s Christian...

SNAP beneficiaries have expressed outrage on social media over the government shutdown that could affect their grocery benefits starting next month, and some are even threatening to ransack stores if food stamp payments don’t go through starting Nov. 1.

The same woman also complained about how none of her TikTok followers had sent her money, warning she would block...

It also prohibits reimbursement through the Children's Health Insurance Program or CHIP for patients under age 19.

Since the city of El Fasher in Sudan fell last weekend to a paramilitary force, images and witness accounts have pointed to an unfolding massacre. Residents were shot as they fled the city through fields. hundreds were killed in a day in the city’s last hospital. Videos show victims being casually executed. the fighters rampaging across Darfur, a region in western Sudan, are better armed, organized and funded than ever. Before, they rode mainly on horses and camels; now, they have armored vehicles and pickups. Before, they torched villages; now, they fire heavy artillery, fly sophisticated drones and have the...

Democrat gubernatorial candidate Mikie Sherrill said she would push for New Jersey classrooms to mandate LGBTQ curriculum with no parental opt-out if she were to become governor. Sherrill made the comments during a primary debate in May, but the controversial remarks have resurfaced in the days leading up to the New Jersey gubernatorial election between Sherrill and Republican Jack Ciattarelli on November 4. “I believe that parents have the right to oversee their children’s education,” Sherrill said. “I would push an LGBTQ education into our schools. Parents have a right to opt out of a lot of things, but this...

Author’s note: This article was first published on Monday, June 12, 2006. Considering we are, I believe, in the time that’s “as it was in the days of Noah” foretold by Jesus (Luke 17:26), I believe it’s good to again think a bit on the obvious invasion from the evil dimension the world faces. We know of the violence taking place in the world today. It might even be equal to the violence of those antediluvian times. However, the other primary evil of Noah’s day is a bit harder to equate to this day and time. The other “evil” I...

Try to stand back and objectively look at the span of time here on earth, from the Tower of Babel with its global catalyst of godlessness and passion to live an existence without Almighty God, to the worldly brilliance and idolatrous society of Egypt. From the autocratic power of the Babylonians to the strength of the Medes and the Persian Empire. From the conquering speed and philosophy of Greece to the decadent and oppressive Roman Empire. From the genius and barbarity of the Aztecs, Mayans, and Incas, to the godless vacuum of the European nations and lust for war. All...
