<p>The lies were thick and fast all week at the Democratic National Convention, but never so blatantly as they were in Vice President <strong>Kamala Harris</strong>’ acceptance speech.</p>
<p>The Democratic presidential nominee accused her opponent, former President <strong>Donald Trump</strong>, of wanting to cut Social Security and Medicare (he has not); being weak on border enforcement (he had it under control before President Biden and Ms. Harris took office) and sending an “armed mob” to the Capitol on Jan.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2024/08/democrats-new-way-forward-one-lie-at-a-time/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Robert Knight</em></p>
<p>When the Soviet Union existed — 1917 to 1991 — its hapless citizens resorted to dark humor in the face of constant lies.</p>
<p>Open defiance could land them in the Siberian gulag or a KGB torture chamber in a dank basement near the Kremlin. So they learned to joke among themselves about absurd government claims, such as <em>Pravda</em> insisting that the economy was surging and the collective farms overflowing with food.</p>
<p>Here are a couple of typical Soviet jests:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">Q: How does every Russian joke start?&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2021/11/laughing-at-all-of-the-democrats-lies/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p class="">Transportation Secretary <strong>Pete Buttigieg</strong> and his “husband” Chasten recently created a stir by <a href="https://twitter.com/PeteButtigieg/status/1434167993769111552">announcing that they had adopted newborns</a> Penelope Rose and Joseph August. In a rather uncomfortable photo-op, the two men are pictured in a hospital bed as if one of them had just given birth, despite the glaringly obvious fact that neither of them ever have or ever will. Not pictured, somewhere, out of frame, Penelope and Joseph have a mother who recently brought them into the world.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2021/09/depriving-children-of-a-mother-isnt-something-to-celebrate/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Micah Clark</em></p>
<p>Former South Bend Mayor, and Democrat presidential candidate, <strong>Pete Buttigieg</strong> is the perfect politician to take a better job in the DC swamp. He is the epitome of everything that is wrong with politics and why Americans are cynical regarding our government.</p>
<p>This would be humorous, were it not true.</p>
<p>As you know, “Mayor Pete” has been named by <strong>Joe Biden</strong> as his choice to head the U.S. Department of Transportation. Only in government can you fail at your job and get a major promotion, giving you more money and more power to continue in your lack of achievement.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2020/12/you-cant-make-this-stuff-up/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>This is a tale of two candidates as far apart as night and day. Last week, President <strong>Donald J. Trump</strong> boldly spoke in defense of life to millions watching his State of the Union address. Using an example of a mother and daughter who were guests in the U.S. House chamber for his speech, the President said:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>“Ellie reminds us that every child is a miracle of life. And thanks to modern medical wonders, 50 percent of very premature babies delivered at the hospital where Ellie was born now survive.</em></p></blockquote>&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2020/02/can-deception-and-smooth-talk-hide-this-huge-divide/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a>]]></description>

<p>[Last week], six candidates participated in the final Democratic debate before the Iowa caucus. <strong>Joe Biden</strong>, <strong>Bernie Sanders</strong>, <strong>Elizabeth Warren</strong>, <strong>Amy Klobuchar</strong>, <strong>Pete Buttigieg</strong>, and <strong>Tom Steyer</strong> each made their pitch for why they should be their party’s nominee to take on President <strong>Donald Trump</strong> in the general election.</p>
<p>Buttigieg’s repeated emphasis of his religious background is unique for his party: Democrats have been reluctant to speak about their faith on the campaign trail.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2020/01/pete-buttigiegs-different-way-is-not-biblical-christianity/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>I&#8217;m almost as upset that Democratic presidential candidates are squabbling as I am that <strong>Prince Harry</strong> and the former <strong>Meghan Markle</strong> apparently don&#8217;t want to live in Los Angeles until President <strong>Donald Trump</strong> leaves office. Double bummer.</p>
<p>Speaking of doubles, did you know that U.S. Senators <strong>Elizabeth Warren</strong> (D-MA) and <strong>Bernie Sanders</strong> (I-VT) have accused each other of lying? How can this be? Progressives don&#8217;t lie. With that in mind, one of them must be lying.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2020/01/democratic-presidential-disarray/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Lieutenant Colonel <strong>James Nicholas Pritzker</strong>—now known as <strong>“Jennifer Natalya” Pritzker</strong>—is trying to commandeer the Republican Party to serve the interests of the “trans” cult he officially joined in 2013.</p>
<p>A year ago Pritzker, a long-time RINO donor to GOP campaigns—often the campaigns of RINOs—who has the dubious distinction of being the world’s “only known trans billionaire,” threatened the GOP that if they didn&#8217;t climb aboard the &#8220;trans&#8221; train, he was piling all his buckets of ducats on it and chugging away.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2020/01/lieutenant-colonel-pritzker-rejects-his-sex-and-political-affiliation/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>2019 found the Democratic party in the United States trying to out-do each other in terms of how radical and progressive they could sound. On the issue of abortion, it seems that many leading Democrats have never found an unborn baby they aren’t willing to have killed.</p>

<p>In today’s Democratic Party, anything goes—from <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/warren-applauds-9-year-old-transgender-child-at-cnn-forum">applauding</a> parents who encourage their children to reject their God-given identity and mutilate their young bodies, to bizarrely championing “<a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/julian-castro-on-abortion-one-2020-democrat-hit-the-gas-pedal/">abortion rights for trans-females</a>,” to <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2019/11/25/us/politics/democratic-candidates-abortion-survey.html#link-6a161632">now</a> happily supporting the dangerous do-it-yourself abortion method known as the abortion pill.</p>
<p>When the <em>New York Times</em> <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2019/11/25/us/politics/democratic-candidates-abortion-survey.html#link-6a161632">surveyed</a> the 2020 Democratic presidential candidates, all of them (unsurprisingly) vowed to defend abortion. However, when asked if they were in favor of lifting the restrictions on abortion pills and making them available over-the-counter (<span class="caps">OTC</span>), many of the candidates were unwilling to take a public position.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/12/2020-democrats-want-unsafe-unregulated-do-it-yourself-abortions/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Ben Shapiro</em></p>
<p>This week, South Bend, Indiana, Mayor <strong>Pete Buttigieg</strong>, who has risen to the top of the heap in early Democratic presidential primary polling in Iowa and New Hampshire, came under serious sustained attack for the first time in his candidacy. Buttigieg&#8217;s early candidacy gained credibility thanks to the moderation he displayed compared with other Democrats. He quickly lost steam when he tacked to the left. Now Buttigieg has swiveled back toward the center, launching a series of assaults on the radical plans of U.S.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/11/pete-buttigiegs-big-mistake-telling-the-truth/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>I’m fine with the fact that I disagree with South Bend Mayor <strong>Pete Buttigieg</strong> on virtually every political issue. We can debate those.</p>
<p>Even though as a Hoosier myself, I am more intimately aware of the mismanaged manure pile his administration has produced, I know that can be endured and fixed.</p>
<p>I am annoyed by his politically-motivated doublespeak regarding Vice President <strong>Mike Pence</strong> – claiming a positive working relationship with the “nice” Vice President, before sharpening his tongue to stab him as a “fanatical” homophobe when it was expedient.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/11/lets-be-clear-what-pete-buttigieg-preaches-isnt-christianity/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em><center>Written by Robert Knight</center></em></p>
<p>Things have come to a pretty pass when the most “moderate” Democratic presidential candidate wants to make history by bringing along a “first gentleman” instead of a first lady.</p>
<p>That’s where things stand after the latest Democratic debates, town halls and other glimpses into the bizarre strain in American politics known as progressivism.</p>
<p>The aforementioned “moderate” is <strong>Pete Buttigieg</strong>, the openly homosexual South Bend, Indiana, mayor whose legal spouse is a man.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/10/party-of-progress-lets-its-mask-slip/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Dr. Everett Piper </em></p>
<p>On Tuesday, Sept. 24, 2019, U.S. House Speaker <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/nancy-pelosi/">Nancy Pelosi</a> announced a formal impeachment inquiry of President <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/donald-trump/">Donald Trump</a> for allegedly asking the Ukrainian president to investigate <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/joe-biden/">Joe Biden</a>. U.S. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy responded: “Facts be damned. Democrats are insisting this is their moment to impeach President <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/donald-trump/">Trump</a>. Speaker <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/nancy-pelosi/">Pelosi</a>’s decree changes nothing.”</p>
<p>And, thus, without even intending it, Mr. McCarthy just stumbled into what will be the campaign slogan for the Democratic Party from now until November 2020.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/09/denial-of-reality-could-become-a-democratic-campaign-slogan/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Perhaps Mayor <strong>Pete Buttigieg</strong> would have a better shot at appealing to Christian voters if he would not go to such extreme lengths to contort Scripture to rationalize his party&#8217;s abominable stance on abortion.</p>
<p>The Democratic presidential candidate openly expresses his Christian faith and was the first candidate to hire a national faith outreach director. He believes political conservatism is less compatible with Christianity than political liberalism.</p>
<p>Buttigieg says the GOP likes &#8220;to cloak itself in their language of religion&#8221; and accuses Republicans of hypocrisy for their alleged callousness about family separations at the border.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/09/buttigieg-distorts-logic-and-scripture-on-abortion/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Democrats can’t seem to figure out whether they want to use the government to drive Christianity underground or just replace the biblical version with fake Christianity.</p>
<p>These aren’t mutually exclusive goals; either one brings America closer to a secular, socialist state whose unofficial religion is atheism.</p>
<p>Democratic presidential contenders like former Vice President <strong>Joe Biden</strong>, Massachusetts U.S. Senator <strong>Elizabeth Warren</strong>, New Jersey U.S. Senator <strong>Cory Booker</strong>, California U.S. Senator <strong>Kamala Harris</strong> and South Bend Mayor <strong>Pete Buttigieg</strong> invoke Christianity to shill for taxpayer-funded, unrestricted abortion and the family values of Sodom, plus confiscation of wealth and redistribution.  &#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/09/democrats-put-their-faith-in-the-faithless/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>It is insidious to watch the left do its dirty work of demonization. It starts with a narrative constructed on false accusations and misleading innuendos.

					<description><![CDATA[<p>Claiming to be a Christian, faux-married, homosexual Democratic presidential candidate <strong>Pete Buttigieg</strong> wields the Bible as a political weapon with which to bludgeon conservatives. It’s odd then that fellow “progressives” don’t chastise Buttigieg for violating the separation of church and state as they do when theologically orthodox Christians cite their faith as informing their public policy positions. Let’s not forget the chilling words of homosexual <em>New York Times</em> writer <strong>Frank Bruni</strong> who re-envisions the First Amendment in such a way as to circumscribe narrowly the heretofore free exercise of religion:</p>
<blockquote><p><span style="background-color: #ffff99;">I support the right of people to believe what they do and say what they wish — in their pews, homes and hearts.</span></p></blockquote>&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/podcast/podcast-pete-buttigieg-fool-or-wolf-in-lambs-clothing/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a>]]></description>

<p>In a crowded field of competitors I get what he’s doing.  And politically I don’t blame him.  South Bend Mayor <strong>Pete Buttigieg</strong> is a longshot candidate who lacks the pedigree, chops, and experience for the office he seeks.  But that doesn’t always matter in presidential primaries.  Often times outsider candidates who find a niche, tap into a core group of committed supporters who are willing to ride with them through thick and thin, can take advantage of the splintering nature of crowded race demographics and pull the upset.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/08/buttigiegs-appropriation-of-god-is-not-ok/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>When <strong>Pete Buttigieg</strong>, the little-known mayor of South Bend, Indiana, announced his candidacy for the Democratic presidential nomination, he stunned the political world with his meteoric rise in the polls.  Buttigieg was everywhere in the news and on television, thanks to a savvy campaign team that included political operative <strong>Lis Smith</strong>, who boasted, “I want him on everything.”  In a month, he had raised 7 million dollars, a significant sum for a political nobody starting from scratch in a national campaign.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/05/the-siren-call-of-pete-buttigieg/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Pastor Stephen Broden</em></p>
<p>Mayor <strong>Pete Buttigieg</strong> (D-South Bend) is publicly challenging the definition of what a Christian is in the public square.</p>
<p>The culmination of the culture wars has now turned to redefining Christianity. The LGBTQ community has used media, entertainment, and the law to codify their view of sexuality. They have convinced Americans that the homosexual lifestyle is normal and an acceptable practice in the public square. They have, in effect, successfully introduced a neo-morality into the culture.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/05/mayor-pete-fake-christian-and-the-re-definition-of-christianity/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Adults in the Democratic Party, who seem like flustered parents at an out-of-control toddler birthday bash, have been warning about the public’s perception of them.</p>
<p>U.S. House Speaker <strong>Nancy Pelosi</strong> (D-CA) has reason to worry. The 22 declared candidates for the presidential nomination lean far to the Left.  Which means they represent the center of their now-far-Left party.</p>
<p>The mini-wave for “moderate” <strong>Joe Biden</strong> reflects a desperate pullback from the zany public image fostered by wild-haired Vermont socialist U.S.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/05/democrats-lurch-ever-leftward/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>The Islamic State (ISIS) has now taken credit for the Muslim massacre of Christians in Sri Lana. On average over 300 Christians a month are killed for their faith globally. This is the end result of a campaign of disrespect and hate towards Christians that have become a significant theme of American politics as well.</p>
<p>Is it merely coincidental that the most rapidly rising candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination, <strong>Pete Buttigieg</strong> launched his campaign with an unfounded and unprovoked attack on America’s vice president <em>because</em> he is a Christian?&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/04/the-attacks-on-christians-and-americas-first-freedom/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Peter Heck</em></p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">I’ve been surprised at the number of Christians who appear stunned that Mayor <strong>Pete Buttigieg</strong> made startlingly depraved remarks regarding the intentional murder of full-term babies in their mothers’ wombs.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">If you missed it, it happened on Morning Joe when co-host <strong>Willie Geist</strong> explained that while religious conservatives were intrigued by Buttigieg, they could not get past his support for the heinous act of third-term abortion.  In response, Mayor Pete put together a word salad of heartlessness:</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">The way I explain this and it’s something that I think any pro-choice candidate from a conservative state faces, and that is I respect and understand where others are coming from.</p></blockquote>&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/04/why-is-any-christian-surprised-by-buttigiegs-depraved-abortion-comments/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Robert Knight</em></p>
<p>The question is often raised:  Who is Jesus?</p>
<p>As <strong>C.S. Lewis</strong> wrote, the Gospels leave no gray area:  Either Jesus was God Incarnate or a madman for claiming to be so.  Merely being “a good teacher” doesn’t cut it.</p>
<p>The New Testament says that Jesus is not only the Jews’s long-awaited Messiah but the Son of God, who was sacrificed for the sins of the whole world, rose from the dead and grants eternal life to all who believe in Him.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/04/drafting-jesus-for-unholy-purposes/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>
