The Media Still Bows to Nancy Pelosi

Written by Tim Graham

Nancy Pelosi may be retiring from Congress, but no one should expect the DNC media to stop treating her as a most glorious political figure. She draws deep bows wherever she goes. She’s always the Best Ever.

On CBS’s “Sunday Morning” in early 2024, substitute host Tracy Smith announced Pelosi “has a new book out, ‘The Art of Power’ — an art which Nancy Pelosi is something of a master.” After Pelosi bizarrely suggested Joe Biden could go on Mount Rushmore, Leslie Stahl just had to follow up with flattery:

“If there were a Mount Rushmore for Speakers of the House, Nancy Pelosi would certainly be up there, commemorating her 20 years as a commanding leader in Congress.”

Happy New Year!

On this first day of the New Year, we come to you with an overwhelming heart of appreciation, and it is from all of us at IFI and IFA… We are deeply grateful to God for His bountiful mercies, love and the call to be transformed by the renewing of our minds to align with His truth and perfect will. (Romans 12:2)

Moreover, we are

Blessed by your unwavering, unqualified support for the work we are doing in deep blue Illinois.… Continue Reading

Can We Count On Your Support?

Written by David E. Smith

Our Christian values, basic freedoms, and even common sense have been under relentless attack for years — but never more fiercely than in recent times. From pro-life prayer warriors and Christian students to pastors and everyday believers working in secular jobs, no one has been spared the hostility of today’s militant woke culture.

This movement is no longer merely ideological. Its growing aggression — including threats, intimidation, and even violence — is aimed at silencing orthodox Christianity and dismantling the moral foundations of Western civilization.… Continue Reading

Bill Maher Was Right: Islam Is Not Just Another Religion

Written by Dr. Everett Piper

If recent events don’t prove to you that Islam is now the No. 1 enemy of the civilized world, then you are blind, deaf and dumb.

Consider the following.

In Germany, multiple Christmas markets were effectively shut down by thousands of Muslims seeking to intimidate Christians who simply wanted to celebrate “peace on earth and goodwill toward men.”

In Paris, the annual New Year’s Eve festival was canceled because of credible Muslim terrorist threats.… Continue Reading

Open Borders, Open Jihad

Written by Daniel Horowitz

Over the course of a single day this month, a pattern repeated itself across the West. Two Muslims murdered at least 15 people at a Hanukkah celebration in Sydney. Five Muslims were arrested for plotting an attack on a Christmas market in Germany. French authorities canceled a concert in Paris due to credible threats of an Islamist terror attack. Two Iowa National Guardsmen in Syria were murdered by an Islamist while we play footsie with an illegitimate regime.… Continue Reading

SCOTUS Tells New York: You Don’t Get to Override Faith and Family

Written by Jayla Ward

Great news! The U.S. Supreme Court ruled once again in favor of parents’ rights.

The Justices recently reversed a terrible decision by the 2^nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that allowed the State of New York to force Amish parents to vaccinate their children. When the families asked for religious exemptions, they were denied and faced catastrophic penalties from the state, directly violating their religious freedom and parental rights.

The Supreme Court instructed the appeals court to reconsider this case in light of its decision in Mahmoud v.… Continue Reading

THE JOY OF CHRISTMAS

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Illinois Family Action would like to wish all of our friends a very Merry Christmas!! Enjoy this special time of the year with your families.

Below I’ve included a Christmas essay by Chicago Pastor Thorin Anderson that proclaims the good news of our Savior, Jesus Christ, yet at the same time reminds us that the world is far from being ready to accept the Truth, that we all are sinners in need a Savior.… Continue Reading

The Dawn That Darkness Cannot Stop

Written by Robert Knight

The adage “It’s always darkest before the dawn” is a perfect fit for this week in the Northern Hemisphere.

The winter solstice was Sunday. At less than eight hours, it was the shortest day of the year, leading to the longest, darkest night.

Then, four days later, we celebrate the entrance of divine light into the world on Dec. 25, with the birth of Jesus in Bethlehem 2,000 years ago. Down Under, it’s summertime because of the tilt of the Earth, but Christians in Australia, South America and Africa are also celebrating Christmas.… Continue Reading

Taking Our Islamic Enemy at His Word

Written by Dr. Everett Piper

It has been said that the best predictor of future behavior is always past behavior and that if you want to know what your neighbor is going to do tomorrow, it would be wise to pay attention to what he has already done. In the words of Sun Tzu: “Know your enemy” if you want to avoid the “peril of a hundred of battles.”

In light of recent atrocities, including the massacre of Jews in Australia and the butchery of Christians in Nigeria, as well as the shootings on the campus of Brown University, maybe it’s time we start acknowledging what we know about this enemy that seems so hell-bent on destroying us.… Continue Reading

Ilhan Omar’s Unchallenged Claims — and a Protective Media

Written by Tim Graham

As a leftist Muslim immigrant from Somalia, radical U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar (D-MN) is wonderfully blessed with a DEI press. She is perennially assumed to be a victim of racism, sexism and xenophobia whenever she is criticized, and especially when she’s verbally targeted by President Donald Trump.

At the end of a typically syrupy interview with Esme Murphy from the local CBS station WCCO in Minneapolis on Sunday, Omar claimed her 19-year-old son Adnan Hirsi was pulled over by Immigrations and Customs Enforcement personnel.… Continue Reading
