Former Vice President Joe Biden (D-DE) maintains a solid lead over his Democratic rivals, portraying himself as the more reasonable alternative to what he calls his far-left primary opponents. Yet his own policy positions have historically been demonstrably more radical than the mainstream America he claims to represent.
U.S. Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez may seem harmless, but she’s a virtue signaler on steroids and a nonstop headline-manufacturing machine.The left adores her, and for conservatives she’s a gift that keeps on giving –because she is either too naive or arrogant to rein herself in. Don’t listen to those who advise not to be roped into her spotlight-seeking trap. Give her all the attention she craves — and more rope.
Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker drew “whoops and cheers” from onlookers on June 12 as he signed The Reproductive Health Act, which he called “a beacon of hope in the heart of this nation.” A widely published AP photo shows him grinning broadly and holding up a pen as female abortion activists applaud.
Recently a candidate for city council in Denver declared that capitalism has failed and that socialism is the future. Candi Cdebaca said that we are in the “last phase” of capitalism—as if it is dying. In contrast, she said, “I believe in community ownership of land, labor, resources and distribution of those resources.” And she is willing to implement this agenda “by any means necessary.” Last week, she won the election.A new poll says that out-of-the-closet socialist Bernie Sanders would beat capitalist Donald Trump for the U. S. presidency if the election were held today. By 9 points.
Last week, pro-life leaders held a news conference immediately following the SB 25 signing celebration by Governor JB Pritzker. They respond to the legislative agenda to radically expand abortion through all 9 months of pregnancy. Illinois State Rep. Kelly Cassidy (D-Chicago) and State Sen. Melinda Bush (D-Grayslake), along with left-wing organizations Planned Parenthood, Personal PAC, and the ACLU of Illinois cheer the ability of “women’s reproductive health” to include human slaughter.
In a recent interview with the Des Moines Register, presidential hopeful U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) was asked about her support for abortion, abortion litmus tests for judicial nominees, and the Hyde Amendment.

Three wonderful Republican State Representatives from southern Illinois are sponsoring a special event next month featuring pro-life activist Abby Johnson in Effingham. If you've not heard Abby speak, you need to do so! She was once was a young director of Planned Parenthood, and had had, tragically, two abortions. Praise God that Abby had a change of heart, and now reveres God and His crown jewel of creation. She and her husband are the parents of 8 children today and she has become a leading, passionate pro-life voice in our nation.
In September of 2008, U.S. Senator, vice-presidential candidate, and democrat Joe Biden was asked his thoughts—“as a Roman Catholic”—on when life begins. Demonstrating a vast ignorance of science, along with an unflattering display of faith, he told NBC’s Tom Brokaw, “Look, I know when it begins for me.” A decade later, using the same “post-truth” relativism, New York Mayor, presidential candidate, and democrat Bill de Blasio, after signing a law that allows New Yorkers to declare their chosen gender on their birth certificate, told a cheering crowd, “You be you. Live your truth. And know that New York City will have your back.”
