FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Washington D.C. – Just months after securing an $18 million judgment against Troy Newman, President of Operation Rescue, news broke that Cecile Richards is suffering from terminal brain cancer. Jesus exhorted his followers to “love our enemies” and “pray for those who persecute us.” With that sentiment, Operation Rescue is asking all followers of Jesus to pray for the healing and salvation of Planned Parenthood’s former chief executive. When the groundbreaking Center for Medical Progress (CMP) videos hit the news in 2015, revealing Planned Parenthood’s illegal sale of baby body parts, Cecile Richards was President of Planned...

Ahead of this quarter’s 13F filing from Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway, we already knew it was going to be far less exciting than the last one we got. As the company recently reported, Berskhire racked up $3.8 billion in net stock purchases in the second quarter, far short of the $41 billion it bought up in the first quarter of this year (it also spent far less on stock buybacks during Q2).Additionally, some of the positions that aren't being disclosed today include the company’s stake in Occidental Petroleum, even though we already are aware of these thanks to recent filings....

Jeb Bush has emerged a winner from the sale of his townhome in Florida, the state where he served two terms as governor. The politician sold the two-story residence for $1.625 million — or $325,000 more than what he paid for it in 2011, records show. The townhouse in the city of Coral Gables southwest of downtown Miami features oak floors, impact windows and high-end finishes across 3,485 square feet. Stone columns frame the entry, leading directly into a living room topped with dual chandeliers.

The media firestorm over Donald Trump’s accurate comment that the illegal aliens coming from Mexico include “rapists, drug runners, and other criminals” shows no sign of abating. However, the murder in San Francisco of innocent American Kathryn Steinle by an illegal alien, and five-time deportee, has all but disappeared from the pages and video feeds of the establishment media. This conspiracy of silence by the establishment media to hush-up the vast contribution illegal aliens make to America’s crime rate has finally driven some of the victims of the not-at-all victimless crime of illegal border crossing to come out in support...

Mitt Romney has some simple advice for students who want to start their own business: Just borrow money from your parents. The presumptive Republican presidential nominee made the suggestion Friday during a pit stop at Otterbein University in Ohio.

Conservative commentator Ann Coulter told radio host Hugh Hewitt on Thursday that Democratic attempts to highlight presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney’s wealth are not only unfair, but likely to backfire. Earlier this week, President Barack Obama said that he and his wife Michelle were not born with a “silver spoon” in their mouths, a comment which was widely considered to be a jab at Romney, the son of a successful CEO. Although Obama’s spokesman Jay Carney denied that was the case, the Democratic Party has been attacking the former Massachusetts governor in an effort to paint him as out-of-touch...

OVER a series of casual dinners at neighborhood restaurants near her Flatiron District apartment in the spring, Chelsea Clinton began talking to a couple of longtime friends about something she’d been mulling for a while. She wanted to stop pretending she was not Chelsea Clinton. It was quite an assertion from someone who — despite the very public profile of her parents, one a former president and the other the current secretary of state — had lived most of her 31 years at a far remove from the spotlight. Yes, there had been sightings of Chelsea over the years, as...
