<p>Within hours of her being announced as President Biden’s presumed replacement as the Democratic nominee, Vice President <strong>Kamala Harris</strong>’ moderate makeover began.</p>
<p>Journalists reflexively began gushing over her “historic” candidacy and centrist views.</p>
<p>The love bombing and sheer dishonesty is a replay of 2020, when she ran for vice president as a supposed moderate.</p>
<p>The facts loudly spoke otherwise. As a U.S. senator from California from 2017 to 2021, she had a more leftist voting record even than socialist U.S.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2024/07/harris-had-a-more-leftist-voting-record-than-sanders/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Dr. Everett Piper</em></p>
<p>On Thursday, Feb. 25, 2021, the <a href="chrome-extension://oknpjjbmpnndlpmnhmekjpocelpnlfdi/topics/us-house-of-representatives/">U.S. House of Representatives</a> passed the Equality Act by a vote of <a href="https://illinoisfamily.org/federal/u-s-house-passes-in-equality-act/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">224-206</a>.</p>
<p>Proponents of the legislation, such as U.S. Representative <a href="chrome-extension://oknpjjbmpnndlpmnhmekjpocelpnlfdi/topics/david-cicilline/">David Cicilline</a>, Rhode Island Democrat, declared, “Every American deserves respect and dignity and [this is why it’s] important that the Equality Act become law …”</p>
<p>But here’s the thing: He’s lying. And so is every single Democrat who aligns with him and parrots this deceptive blather.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2021/03/the-equality-act-and-the-abolition-of-women/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>This week’s Spotlight features Monte Larrick’s conversation with <strong>Peter LaBarbera</strong>, Executive Director of <a href="https://americansfortruth.com/">Americans for Truth</a>. Monte and Peter discuss the Biden-Harris administration’s top priorities: advancing gay and transgender rights and passing the Equality Act, or in Peter’s words, the <strong>Criminalizing Christianity Act</strong>. They examine ways in which the “legal sledgehammer” of this act could affect churches’ and faith-based schools’ hiring practices, as well as possible changes we might experience on a state level.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/podcast/illinois-family-spotlight-227/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>More parents are looking to homeschooling and private education as government schools in Illinois face uncertainty because of the CCP virus and pro-LGBT history in classrooms starting very soon. During this time of racial unrest, leftists are pressing the U.S. Senate to pass The Equality Act: the game-changing legislation which would raise sexual attraction and &#8220;gender&#8221; perception to the same level as race in our laws. BreakPoint commentator John Stonestreet weighs in during this edition of Illinois Family Spotlight.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/podcast/spotlight-202/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p><strong>Bernie Sanders</strong> may have missed his chance to finally head the Democratic ticket, but he still holds considerable clout, which is why Joe Biden was busy wooing the Vermont socialist’s supporters this past week. “Senator Sanders and I may disagree on tactics,” he said. “But we share a common vision.”</p>
<p>That’s good to keep in mind as the media try to cover up Mr. Biden’s recent leftward lurches and convert him into a “moderate” to seem less scary in November.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2020/03/red-birds-from-the-same-nest/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>The first rule of any Marxist revolution is that rules are fine if they advance the cause or cripple opponents.  The rules can be discarded the minute they get in the way.</p>
<p>That’s the way America’s Marxists, socialists and many liberals operate when it comes to the U.S. Constitution, especially the First Amendment.</p>
<p>Here’s the relevant portion:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech or of the press.”</p></blockquote>&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/05/rejecting-the-marxists-version-of-the-constitution/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a>]]></description>
