President Donald Trump has made clear that his top foreign policy priority is ending Russia’s war on Ukraine, and his motive seems to be a genuinely moral one. On Thursday, the president accurately described the World War I-style killing fields that now litter eastern Ukraine. Much of the commentary surrounding Trump’s peace ambitions has focused […]
“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves,” says a passage from the Bible. These words were written thousands of years ago but are applicable today. This is abundantly clear after Bishop Mariann Budde sabotaged Tuesday’s inaugural prayer service at the Washington National Cathedral. The […]
Democrats sarcastically deflected President Donald Trump’s claims during the election about abortions after birth, and yet that is precisely the line they continue to draw with abortion legislation. Senate Democrats again blocked the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, a rare high-profile bill that does exactly what its name suggests (unlike the Affordable Care Act or […]
Within a week of a new president taking office, there is usually a flurry of votes for a new Cabinet. In the past few administrations, however, the opposition party has slowed Senate hearings and votes to a crawl. As of Thursday morning, only Secretary of State Marco Rubio has received a confirmation vote. Top candidates, […]
Among many shameful parting shots from the outgoing president, Joe Biden forgot our Constitution only has 27 amendments and conjured the existence of a 28th. On the Friday before Monday’s inauguration, Biden issued a declaration on social media and in a speech to the U.S. Conference of Mayors, asserting that the so-called Equal Rights Amendment, […]
The start of President Donald Trump’s second administration has offered subtle but promising hope to pro-lifers in its quiet reset of White House messaging. Numerous executive orders that Trump has already signed or proposed have made for a flashy first week. Between gender ideology, a “Gulf of Mexico” rename, DEI rollbacks, and repeated “America First” […]
Among President Donald Trump’s inaugural address commitments, which included increased protections on free speech and the elimination of policies such as DEI and the Green New Deal, he also announced the name change of Denali, the highest peak in North America, back to Mount McKinley. “We will restore the name of the great President William […]
Outrage over the Episcopal bishop of Washington’s stunt at the end of her sermon during the postinaugural prayer service Tuesday has carried into a third day of media coverage. Predictably, most Republicans were aghast at what the Right Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde preached while most Democrats praised her. Yet, for me, as a churchgoing Episcopalian, […]
Demonstrating the primacy of the issue, President Donald Trump spent his first two days in office issuing three executive orders and a memo that dealt heavy blows to the practices of diversity, equity, and inclusion in the federal government, federal contractors, and among grantees. Let’s hope the blows prove to be lethal. The president, for […]
An executive order President Donald Trump signed on Monday that many people are likely to regard as less important than most others is one that could have the longest impact and is unambiguously welcome. Under the “Promoting Federal Civic Architecture” order, the 47th president directed the administrator of the General Services Administration to rewrite the […]
Jaws dropped throughout Washington’s National Cathedral when an egomaniacal Episcopal female bishop sabotaged the Inaugural Prayer Service with a left-wing rant from the pulpit...
