For the second straight election, an Indiana county’s voting machines were not properly registering the preferred candidate. According to a report Tuesday in the Lafayette Journal & Courier, several Tippecanoe County machines were switching votes in Tuesday’s municipal elections. Voter Robert Kurtz took a video of his touch screen’s failures as he tried to vote for three at-large seats on the West Lafayette City Council. “When I touched a square next to a candidate’s name, the machine selected […]

The comings and goings in the Italian capital in recent weeks read like a who’s who list of allies and surrogates for President Trump. Among those who have passed through Rome since August: Attorney General William P. Barr, U.S. District Attorney and “Russia-gate” investigator John Durham, former Trump White House aide Sebastian Gorka, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, and first son-in-law and senior presidential adviser Jared Kushner and his wife and first daughter, Ivanka Trump. Add to that list former Trump adviser Steve Bannon, […]

Pro-life groups are commending the Trump administration after it kept abortion-related language out of a United Nations resolution on “Women, Peace and Security” and urged members to stop using phrases such as “sexual and reproductive health” in U.N. documents. The U.S. Security Council passed the resolution last week, but the U.S. split from the United Kingdom, France, South Africa and other nations over the issue of abortion. Unlike multiple past resolutions on women’s issues, the […]

Russia acquiesced to Israeli requests and canceled certain arms sales to regimes that are antagonistic toward Israel, an adviser to the prime minister said this week, according to the Ynet news site. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. In return, he said, Israel canceled arms sales that irked the Russians, including to Ukraine. “Russia agreed to Israel’s request and, for example, did not provide certain types of weapons to [Israel’s] enemy nations such as Iran, […]

For the nearly 20 million Americans battling substance abuse today, the Trump Administration just launched a new website, FindTreatment.gov, designed to help locate the best treatment options tailored to each person’s particular situation and needs. Despite its importance, finding the best treatment option for those who need it most hasn’t always been easy. This new website scraps the failed one-size-fits-all approach that Washington too often favors, adopting best practices from outside of government to avoid […]

The attorney representing the Ukraine whistleblower tweeted about starting a “coup” against President Trump that would end with his impeachment almost as soon as he took the oath of office. Mark S. Zaid wrote on his certified Twitter account on Jan. 30, 2017, Mr. Trump’s 11th day in power, that “#coup has started. First of many steps. #rebellion. #impeachment will follow ultimately. #lawyers.” Mr. Zaid’s tweet was in response to the firing of Sally Yates as acting attorney general for […]

Kanye is starting quite the conversation, a conversation that has Christians, non-Christians, white people, black people, Democrats, and Republicans all engaging for different reasons. Is Kanye really converted? Does his affinity for Donald Trump take away from his impact, or aid it? Is this a phase that will fizzle out? Is his album objectively good? Or are his lyrics just refreshing? While questions like these are worth asking, we can make observations about his newly […]

A Georgia lawmaker is drafting a bill that would punish doctors with felony charges for helping a minor change sex using surgical procedures or hormones. State Rep. Ginny Ehrhart, Powder Springs Republican, said her bill would protect children from having irreversible medical procedures done at age when they are uncontroversially categorized as too young to give real consent. Thank God for lawmakers suggesting common sense legislation. Pray about the transgendering of America’s children. “We’re talking about […]

Richard Dawkins, perhaps the world’s most famous atheist, has admitted that eliminating God from the public consciousness would pose huge problems. Speaking to British paper The Times, Dawkins insisted that if religion were to be abolished, it would “give people a license to do really bad things.” Expanding on his point, the Oxford University fellow said that, without the presence of a higher being, “people may feel free to do bad things because they feel God […]

House Democrats gained momentum Tuesday for the impeachment inquiry when a key figure revised his testimony, telling Congress that he believed U.S. military aid to Ukraine was linked to an agreement to investigate President Trump’s Democratic political rivals. Gordon Sondland, ambassador to the European Union, made the revelation in a sworn update to testimony he gave last month in the House Democrats’ closed-door impeachment inquiry. Pray through our newly updated prayer resource on the impeachment inquiry. He previously […]

On Monday, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo announced that he had begun the official process of withdrawing the U.S. from the Paris Agreement. Trump had long announced the withdrawal, but the process requires a formal notification of withdrawal, which will be completed one year after the notification. This delay illustrates how the agreement limited America’s sovereignty to make its own climate and energy policy. Myron Ebell, director of the Competitive Enterprise Institute’s Center for Energy […]

With anger at President Trump boiling over, Democrats steamrolled to victory in Virginia’s elections Tuesday, claiming majorities in both chambers of the General Assembly for the first time in two decades. They captured Republican-held Senate seats in Northern Virginia and the Richmond area, according to unofficial returns, giving Democrats enough for control, with other pickups possible. Discouraged by the election results? Sign up for the IFA daily devotional series, Take Heart, Jesus Has Overcome the World! In the House, where new […]

I’m gonna see a victory because the battle belongs to You Lord!

On Tuesday night, the red state of Kentucky elected Democratic Attorney General Andy Beshear, narrowly defeating the incumbent Republican Governor Matt Bevin. In a very close gubernatorial race, Beshear nudged out Bevin by a mere 4500 votes. However, with voting discrepancies already filed in Louisville/Jefferson county, Bevin has not conceded the race, calling for a recount. This race raises numerous questions, concerns, and points of prayer as we head into the upcoming elections of 2020. […]

On the heels of the election, with Virginia firmly in the liberal majority–even in some rural counties, here are the reflections of Michael Farris, President of the Alliance for Defending Freedom, and Virginia resident. This is a somber day to be a Virginian who loves freedom. But the rest of the nation should take warning that this is a portent of the 2020 election. Virginia’s odd-year elections usually foreshadow national results in the following year. […]

As a self-proclaimed adherent to Hanlon’s Razor, I once cynically viewed the frenzied focus on FBI actions during the 2016 Russian election-meddling investigation as partisan and overwrought. Hanlon’s Razor suggests that we never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity or incompetence. Having proudly served in the FBI for 25 years, I bristled at insulting accusations of an onerous deep state conspiracy. Some obvious mistakes made during the investigation of the […]

A federal judge has affirmed a Colorado law that effectively bans business owners from freely expressing in public their religious beliefs about marriage and homosexuality. Colorado was the loser in a similar dispute, the Masterpiece Cakeshop case in which the U.S. Supreme Court ruled the state show “hostility” to the Christian beliefs of Jack Phillips in its handling of his refusal to make a cake for a same-sex wedding. Since then, openly homosexual Democratic Gov. […]

New documents have revealed a massive lobbying effort at the Obama-era State Department by Ukrainian energy company Burisma. The newly released State Department documents show Joe Biden pressured the Ukrainian government to fire its top prosecutor back in 2016, which is about a month after Burisma reached out to the agency. The company employed Biden’s son Hunter and was under an investigation by prosecutor Viktor Shokin at the time. Ukraine suspected Burisma executives of money […]

The investigation into the 2016 presidential campaign of then-candidate Donald Trump started earlier than the official date listed in the final report by special counsel Robert Mueller, according to Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.), the ranking Republican on the House Intelligence Committee. According to the Mueller report, the FBI opened the counterintelligence investigation of the Trump campaign on July 31, 2016. But Nunes told The Epoch Times that “the FBI investigation did not begin at the end of July.” How […]

A self-described secular Jew, Bernie Sanders has been described by some election watchers as one of the least religious presidential candidates since Abraham Lincoln, an ardent Bible reader who shunned organized religion. But trying to pigeon hole Sanders’ religious beliefs would be a mistake as his views—and messaging—are complicated, in part by his own hesitancy to discuss the matter. Pray for the leaders running for the Democratic nomination. Much of what we do know emanated […]

The US military operation that resulted in the death of ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was dedicated to Kayla Mueller, a young Christian woman who was kidnapped, tortured, and murdered by the Islamic State. Mueller, 26, was abducted by ISIS in August 2013 in Aleppo, Syria after leaving a Doctor’s Without Borders hospital there. US officials said Baghdadi tortured and repeatedly raped her at his compound before announcing in 2015 that she died in captivity. […]

In a letter to the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services, the state’s Attorney General Ken Paxton stated the children in the case of a mother who wants her seven-year-old son to undergo a gender “transition” are in “immediate and irrevocable danger.” Mr. Paxton called on the Department to open an immediate investigation, noting the agency has been aware of the matter since last year. Pray in agreement against the transgendering of America’s children. Pray for […]

One of the things that struck me the most watching the events unfolding (around the death of Al-Baghdadi)  was the fact that President Trump knew about the ongoing operation to kill or capture ISIS founder and leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi for more than a week. This is significant, as it goes against all conventional wisdom about a man who’s extraordinarily loquacious on social media. As the reports started to come in, it was apparent that this […]

From Pakistan, to Iran, to Saudi Arabia, to Turkey, all the leading Islamic powers are silent about literally millions of their fellow religious practitioners being brutalized, as are the countless jihadist groups from Indonesia to Iraq. This could mean only one thing: that the Islamic states and jihadist groups are more afraid of China than they are of anyone else. Consider any other power — the EU, the U.S., the U.K., Russia, India, or Israel […]

US presidential adviser Jared Kushner urged Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Blue and White party leader Benny Gantz in separate meetings to work together to form a unity government in order to seize the “tremendous opportunities” in the region, he said in an interview that aired Tuesday. Please join us in praying for Israel. Click below for the special report.  Speaking to Channel 13, Kushner said he thought both Netanyahu and Gantz want to “move […]

Former Vice President Joe Biden was denied communion at a Catholic Church in South Carolina because of his staunch position in favor of abortion. Biden, who earlier this year reversed course on his long held stance in favor of the Hyde Amendment, was attending a worship service at Saint Anthony Catholic Church in Florence, South Carolina, when he attempted to receive the sacrament. The former vice president, however, was rebuffed by the church’s pastor, Father Robert E. […]

New York City voters used to picking one candidate per race may soon be marking their ballots for up to five. A ballot measure in today’s election would make the city the most populous place yet in the U.S. to adopt ranked-choice voting, an elections system in which voters mark down not only their first choice in a race, but also who they’d prefer to win if their top candidate doesn’t make the cut. The […]

Justice may be blind, but the American Bar Association is not. That’s the biggest takeaway from Wednesday’s Senate hearing, when Ninth Circuit Court nominee Lawrence VanDyke became the ABA’s latest contestant on “conservatives don’t have talent.” Like most of this president’s picks, VanDyke probably braced himself for the Kavanaugh Treatment. But he never imagined the country’s largest attorney organization would stoop to label him “not qualified.” PRAY FOR OUR JUDICIAL PROCESS WITH THIS FREE SPECIAL […]

The U.S. Secret Service has listed President Donald Trump the No. 1 target of death threats in the United States.

In what may seem like the same story told over and over, is yet another meeting last week with conservative Christian leaders and President Trump.  The format is usually the same, sharing what the Administration is doing for religious freedom, sharing among those leaders in attendance, and most importantly, a time of prayer for the nation and the President. It’s great news to see that the President is regularly inviting leaders of the faith to […]

Judicial Watch… released two productions of heavily redacted FBI documents – 28 pages and 38 pages – about an April 11, 2017, “off-the-record” meeting set up by then-Chief of the Justice Department’s Criminal Fraud Section Andrew Weissmann, between the DOJ, the FBI and the Associated Press in which AP reporters provided information on former Trump Campaign Director Paul Manafort, including the numeric code to Manafort’s storage locker. Two months later, in early June, Weissmann was hired to work on Robert Mueller’s […]

For a town that leaks like a sieve, Washington has done an astonishingly effective job keeping from the American public the name of the anonymous “whistleblower” who triggered impeachment proceedings against President Trump — even though his identity is an open secret inside the Beltway. More than two months after the official filed his complaint, pretty much all that’s known publicly about him is that he is a CIA analyst who at one point was detailed to the […]

As luck would have it, the 2019 election in Virginia for the House of Delegates and the state Senate has provided Republican candidates the opportunity to take advantage of their opposition to abortion. Democrats have expanded their efforts to eliminate restrictions on abortion. Gov. Ralph Northam and Del. Kathy Tran, for example, have endorsed abortions up to the moment of birth—or perhaps even afterwards. As every poll on abortion shows, these are unpopular positions. Abortions […]

Rep. Matt Gaetz asked the House Ethics Committee to open an investigation of Rep. Adam B. Schiff, accusing the California Democrat of lying to the public. The Florida Republican took to Twitter to post the letter he sent to the Democrat-led panel outlining his case for an investigation and demanding that “Schiff must be held accountable.” The complaint accused Mr. Schiff, chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, of distorting President Trump’s call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr […]

The Kentucky Supreme Court ruled Thursday in favor of a Christian print shop owner hit with a discrimination complaint, handing a victory to religious-freedom advocates fighting legal challenges that pit free-speech rights against anti-bias laws. The court ruled unanimously that the Gay and Lesbian Services Organization lacked standing under the local ordinance to bring a claim against Blaine Adamson, owner of Hands On Originals, after he refused in February 2012 to print shirts for the Lexington […]

Islamic State (ISIS) caliph Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is dead, killed by an American airstrike in northwest Syria. President Trump announced this morning: “U.S. Special operations forces executed a dangerous and daring night-time raid in northwestern Syria, and accomplished their mission in grand style. The U.S. personnel were incredible.” But the question now should not be avoided: why was al-Baghdadi hiding so close to Turkey? Were the Turks protecting him? If not them, then who was? PRAY FOR OUR MILITARY. THIS FREE […]

The Washington Nationals defeated the Houston Astros in Game 7, becoming World Series champs for the first time ever. [They are celebrating their championship season at the White House today. Here is a bit of their journey…] The Astros took an early lead and held it most of the game before the Nationals’ Anthony Rendon hit a home run in the 7th to start a rally. Then Juan Soto walked and Howie Kendrick hit a homer […]

You may be happy with the state of the U.S. economy, but many young people aren’t. And as a result, a lot of them are embracing political extremism. A recent poll by YouGov finds that half of all millennials – and even more of the generation that follows them – distrust capitalism. Seventy percent of millennials say they’d be willing to vote for a socialist. If you’re not shocked by this, it’s only because you’ve […]

This weekend, I, along with the rest of America, took some time to listen to Kanye West’s latest album release, Jesus is King. I have never been a Kanye fan before. Now don’t get me wrong, I’ve had plenty of jam sessions to some of his greatest hits like Stronger, Heartless, and Gold Digger, which could be considered to be some of the pillars of 2000’s music. But I have never listened to one of his albums all the way through. […]

What you don’t hear… The Trump Administration is working with state and local leaders to empower them and compliment their efforts to improve their communities.  It is a top-down approach of cooperation, that the Cabinet Secretaries note, as well as leaders within states and communities.  Below are some of the many quotes shared recently that reflect this approach from the White House.  Keep praying for the truth to be known about what is happening out […]

There are a number of popular Christian companies that are known for embracing and living out biblical values. From fast-food joint Chick-fil-A to craft store Hobby Lobby, these Christian businesses are on the forefront of not only providing stellar services, but also fully living out the gospel message. But did you know there are also some Christian businesses that go a step further and actually post Bible verses and Christian references on their products? Some of these […]

On Friday, anyone with a pulse would have seen the news of the release of Kanye West’s newest album, Jesus Is King. It comes after months of news stories about West’s very public conversion to Christianity, a Christianity that bears no resemblance to the vague spiritualism of Moral Therapeutic Deism that is often associated with celebrity conversions. The lyrics to each song in Jesus Is King are shockingly Christian. It is not an album of feel-good Christian spirituality […]

One of President Trump‘s nominees for the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals broke down in tears during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing Wednesday, as he disputed suggestions that he would not be fair to members of the LGBTQ community. Lawrence VanDyke was the subject of a scathing letter from the American Bar Association, sent to committee leadership Tuesday night, which alleged that people they interviewed expressed this concern, and that VanDyke himself “would not say affirmatively that he would […]

Under sanctuary policies, many jails release illegal immigrants who have been convicted or charged with a crime, despite a request from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to hold the person for transfer of custody. A bill sponsored by Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.) aims to allow any subsequent victims of crimes committed by that illegal alien to sue the politicians who created the sanctuary policies. The bill, Justice for Victims of Sanctuary Cities Act of 2019, was […]

Most parents don’t like to be the last to know what’s being presented to their children, and Dayton, Ohio-area families were appalled to learn about a school-wide assembly held at a middle school. No advance parental notice was given for this event held in conjunction with homosexual/transgender National Coming Out Day. As I have mentioned in previous articles, schools are regularly observing special days and weeks as part of a coordinated “LGBT” agenda directed to America’s […]

The House voted to pass a resolution to lay out the ground rules for the inquiry into impeaching President Donald Trump, including how public hearings will proceed, how documents and transcripts will be released to the public, and who will be able to question witnesses.

The Trump administration has made good on its promise to implement pro-life policies throughout the federal government, including in America’s foreign policy and in humanitarian aid. But those advances could be dealt a crippling blow as a result of a compromise by Senate Republicans, who are cooperating with an underhanded attempt to stymie the administration’s efforts through controversial additions to must-pass appropriations bills. TAKE ACTION–THE VOTE IS TODAY! CLICK HERE TO BEGIN. The Trump administration’s […]

But there is nothing pretend about the very real—and very frightening—presence of witchcraft in America, says author and national radio host Dr. Michael Brown. Reverse curses with our newest prayer guide. In his popular new book Jezebel’s War with America: The Plot to Destroy Our Country and What We Can Do to Turn […]

Considering this question reminds me of my African colleagues serving in mission hospitals. These doctors don’t grapple with evil practices once a year. They encounter it every day. Sorcery and witchcraft are rooted in their culture. Traditional African medicine bases itself not on science, but on witchcraft, sorcery and cultural dogma. Three years ago, I went to a mission hospital in the Saharan Desert to train surgeons. Andrew, a second-year resident, wheeled a 12-year-old girl […]

Christian musician Bryann Trejo made viral waves on social media when he livestreamed walking out of The Addams Family movie. “Growing up we watched Addams Family and it was like costume comedy,” he said walking through the movie theater lobby. “The Addams Family right here, it’s inappropriate.” We are inviting intercessors to SING and PRAISE the Psalms from noon on October 30th until noon on November 1st.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) proposal to vote on formalizing procedures for the impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump has splintered members of her own caucus. Earlier this week, Pelosi and the rest of the House leadership announced they would hold a vote on Thursday—Halloween—to establish procedures governing the ongoing impeachment probe. The Speaker, who for weeks had argued the House had no constitutional requirement to vote on authorizing an impeachment inquiry, relented after coming […]

After college I was providentially placed in the Community Relations Department at the AFL-CIO headquarters across from the White House. I completed my nine months of training with a heightened sensitivity to humanity’s need for relationship and community.

A former Trump campaign associate who was wiretapped by the FBI sued the Department of Justice (DOJ) on Oct. 21, demanding that the government provide him with the opportunity to review, before it is made public, the forthcoming inspector general’s report on potential surveillance abuses in his case. In a lawsuit filed with the U.S. District Court in Washington, Carter Page accuses the DOJ of violating his privacy rights by failing to grant him the […]

A federal judge this week reopened the $250 million defamation lawsuit against The Washington Post filed by high school student Nick Sandmann. The news comes after the Kentucky judge dismissed the lawsuit in July on First Amendment grounds. It was brought by 16-year-old Sandmann, one of the students of Covington Catholic High School who, in January, were confronted by a Native American activist at the Lincoln Memorial, prompting a whirlwind of media coverage, much of which, Sandmann alleged, was defamatory.

A large group of “Formers”—those who no longer identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or questioning— from organizations that represent every state in the Union will be in Washington, D.C. Oct. 28-Nov. 1, 2019, to address concerns about LGBTQ-focused legislation such as bill H.R. 5, which passed in the House in May, and H.R 3570, which was introduced in late June. Dubbed “The Equality Act,” H.R. 5 is an unnecessary concession to the false idea […]

The Institute for Family Studies (IFS) and the Philanthropy Roundtable released a study showing that a Christian pro-family initiative had a measurable impact in driving down divorce rates in Jacksonville, Florida. The Jacksonville Baptist Association and the Roman Catholic diocese united to launch the Culture of Freedom Initiative (COFI) to strengthen marriages and prevent divorces. The three-year initiative ran from 2016 to 2018 and coincided with a 24 percent drop in the local divorce rate. Want encouragement […]

Bill Clinton says it’s his favorite song. It’s a Beatle’s classic still played 50 years after it’s debut. It strikes a chord with multitudes because we so identify with its theme. “Ah, look at all the lonely people. Ah, look at all the lonely people.” The spotlight shines on an aging woman then transitions to an unappreciated pastor. “All the lonely people Where do they all come from? All the lonely people Where do they […]

Jeremiah Johnson is a nationally recognized prophetic voice in this nation as well as author, teacher, and founder of  Maranatha School of Ministry in Lakeland, Florida. In a recent Facebook post, Johnson shared about how the students from his school regularly pray in front of their local abortion clinic. Their prayers have now opened the way for a radical solution. This is a great example of “intercessory activism.” A GENERATION OF PROPHETIC ACTIVISTS  “For those […]

Now two senators say they want to help by moving some federal agencies out of Washington entirely. President Trump faces tremendous opposition.

In May 2018, the Trump administration proposed changes to the rules which govern the Title X Family Planning Program. These changes, finalized on March 4, 2019, are known as the Protect Life Rule. This rule provides existing and prospective Title X grantees with a straightforward choice: comply with the rule and separate their family planning services from abortion activities or choose to relinquish their federal grant funding. Now that the Protect Life Rule is going into effect, abortion […]

The Washington Post evidently has a change of heart in calling Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi a terrorist. The original obituary posted online seemed pretty accurate (top post). Shortly after, the Washington Post elevated al-Bagdhadi to a “religious scholar” and totally changed their framing of the story (bottom post). What could make media outlet see things so differently between these two postings? Continue to pray for the media–many of them are either blinded to truth, or are […]

It’s that time of year again. The leaves are falling, the temperatures are cooler. And since Halloween is around the corner, some things are getting…weirder. Besides the seemingly harmless upcoming holiday decorations in some homes and stores, there are some dangerous and spiritual things taking place. One notable danger making national news is in Salem, Massachusetts. Known for the infamous, “Salem Witch Trials,” this year a Ripley’s Believe it or Not record has been set […]

Rep. Katie Hill, D-Calif., announced her resignation Sunday after a string of reports shining a negative light on her personal life, including a reported affair with her legislative director that sparked a House Ethics Committee investigation.

This is the hardest thing I have ever had to do, but I believe it is the best thing for […]

The State Department utilized a powerful Facebook-owned social media tracking tool linked to leftist billionaire George Soros to unlawfully monitor prominent U.S. conservative figures, journalists and persons with ties to President Donald Trump, according to an agency source. The State Department veteran identified Crowdtangle as the tool used to closely watch more than a dozen U.S. citizens, including the president’s son, personal attorney and popular television personalities such as Sean Hannity and Laura Ingraham, among […]

The Army is thinking big — really big — in its quest to maintain military dominance over global adversaries. Army officials say they are putting more emphasis on research into a “game changing” cannon with an unprecedented range, one that could prove crucial in a conflict with a potential adversary such as China. The Strategic Long-Range Cannon (SLRC), which could reach well over 1,000 miles, represents a key piece of the Pentagon’s push for more advanced artillery capable of […]

From 2010 to 2012, at least 30—and probably many more—Chinese nationals working as spies for the Central Intelligence Agency in China were systematically identified and either jailed or slaughtered thanks to the CIA’s gross underestimation of Chinese intelligence cyber capabilities. Jerry Lee, a former CIA operations officer turned Chinese double agent (where have we heard this before?), as the FBI belatedly discovered, was walking around with a bunch of Chinese CIA agents’ real names written […]

A few months ago, the good folks at the ​Center for the Study of Global Christianity released the 2019 ​edition​ of their “Status of Global Christianity” report.

As I have prayed and sought the face of God, I have been given a series of revelations concerning the new era we have entered as of 5780 and beyond. In this period of time, we are not just crossing from one year to the next, but from one era or decade to the next.

She details these events in her new book, Something Greater, which […]

How would one categorize a nation-state whose army gives a drug baron’s son to cartel members after suffering brutal losses in pitched battles? The country whose firebrand leftist president apologized on television and said the army’s surrender to a drug cartel was the correct thing to do, because “we do not want war”? If the reports are correct, this is precisely what happened in Mexico, around the same time the Democratic presidential primary field was debating […]

ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is dead, sources have confirmed. Al-Baghdadi, who took over ISIS after his predecessor Abu Omar al-Baghdadi was killed in 2010, detonated a suicide vest, killing himself when U.S. Special Operations forces entered a compound in northern Syria where he was located, according to a U.S. defense official.

A new report from The New York Times said officials have shifted the Russia investigation overseen by Attorney General Barr from an “administrative review” into a criminal investigation.

DOJ rules state that a criminal inquiry can only be undertaken after finding a “reasonable indication” of wrongdoing. […]

When it came to having hope for the future, people of faith again felt much more positive. Just over half of […]

Mike Pompeo is a West Point grad, a Harvard Law alum, businessman, former congressman, and — apparently — prophet. When the secretary of state mixed things up with a speech to the American Association of Christian Counselors earlier this month, he said the media “would break out the pitchforks” when they found out he asks God “for direction in [his] work.” He was right. It’s been a year and a half since Pompeo was confirmed (longer […]

As the Caribbean saying goes, “I chucked a rock in the pen and a pig squealed.” This explains all the frenzied squealing and indignant grunting we heard in response to the speech Attorney General William Barr gave last week to law students at the University of Notre Dame about the increasing hostility toward religious liberty in America. Mr. Barr raised alarm over “the force, fervor, and comprehensiveness of the assault on religion we are experiencing today.” For anyone […]

It does, however, provide some exceptions to consent. […]
