Hands Quick to Shed Innocent Blood

Written by Alyssa Sonnenburg

Governor JB Pritzker has been forthcoming and direct in articulating his desires to make Illinois the “abortion capital” of the United States.

In July of this year, Pritzker signed the Birth Equity Act (HB 5142) into law, which mandates insurance companies in Illinois cover the cost of abortion without any deductibles, extra costs, or copays.

In the state of Illinois, you can kill your baby at any point, for any reason, and with no added impact to your wallet.… Continue Reading

Dems at War With Nature, God & Americans

Written by Robert Knight

There is a criminal charge called “aiding and abetting.”

It’s about being an accomplice in committing a crime without being the actual perpetrator.

Think of a getaway car driver after a convenience store shooting. Or congressional, state and local Democrats.

Many Americans believe that allowing millions of aliens, including criminals, drug dealers, sex traffickers and possible terrorists, to enter the U.S. illegally is an act of treason.

The Biden-Harris administration not only reversed policies that had largely controlled the border under former President Donald Trump; they offer incentives to enter the country illegally such as free health care.… Continue Reading

Kamala’s Husband Tells Men to Defend the “Right” to Kill Preborn Babies

Written by Peter Heck

Could there be anything more creepy?

Last weekend, the “second gentleman” of the United States, Douglass Emhoff, took to X to post his personal support of child killing for convenience:

The stakes of this election couldn't be higher. It's time for men to step up for reproductive freedom. https://t.co/WCboun9eOW

— Doug Emhoff (@DouglasEmhoff) August 31, 2024

I understand the politics behind the post. Since the Dobbs decision overturned Roe v Wade, Democrats have been capitalizing financially and electorally on the issue of aborting children in the womb.… Continue Reading

Democrats’ New Way Forward, One Lie At A Time

Written by Robert Knight

The lies were thick and fast all week at the Democratic National Convention, but never so blatantly as they were in Vice President Kamala Harris’ acceptance speech.

The Democratic presidential nominee accused her opponent, former President Donald Trump, 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.… Continue Reading

Christians Voting for Trump?

Written by Pastor Calvin Lindstrom

Recently, one of my former students sent me a link to a video. It comes from a TikTok account, canceledchristian, which contains content from a young woman raised in a Christian fundamentalist family who attended Pensacola Christian College.

The purpose of her account is ”Exposing Christian Fundamentalism.”

In the video linked above, this young woman asks two main questions of Christians who support Donald Trump.

1] Why do Christians believe Donald Trump is a Christian?… Continue Reading

Abortion Is a Winning Issue for Republicans

Written by Star Parker

The visit by Vice President Kamala Harris to a Planned Parenthood abortion clinic in St. Paul, the first ever visit by a president or vice president to an abortion clinic, is getting the considerable attention it deserves.

When America’s vice president visits and pays homage to the nation’s largest abortion provider, it’s news. And what she said there is also news.

Harris predictably distorted truth and reality, pitching the boilerplate left-wing headline calling the destruction of our unborn health care.… Continue Reading
