Via email from hate group leader Mat Staver: The U.S. House is expected to vote on HR 5 — intentionally misnamed the “Equality Act” — as early as Thursday!

“A lot of the things that God had given him to do he fulfilled as a checklist. But here’s the key: Who got the glory? And who was he taking the glory to? “Was he thanking God for it publicly? Was he pointing to God for it? What we saw over and over and over, to the point that it …

Via press release from Alliance Defending Freedom: Our nation’s laws should respect the constitutionally guaranteed freedoms of every American citizen.

Via press release from the Catholic League: Today marks President Biden’s first month in office.

Michael Brown writes for the Christian Post: We are vile. We are vicious. We are mean-spirited. We treat each other with disrespect and disdain. There is little honor. Little humility. Little grace. Perhaps worse still, we have been taught to hate and we have found justification for our hatred. After all, the Democrats (or Republicans or whatever people have our …

Via email from hate group leader Tony Perkins: It turns out green energy performs poorly in white-out conditions. This should come as no surprise.

Kyle Mantyla reports at Right Wing Watch: Dave Hayes, a self-declared prophet, Christian author, and leading online QAnon activist who is better known as the “Praying Medic,” has been rather quiet ever since Trump left office, likely because none of the bold predictions Hayes made about Trump arresting and executing his political enemies ever came true. Despite the fact that …

The Christian Post reports: Ravi Zacharias International Ministries issued an apology Thursday as it announced the results of a monthslong independent investigation in which victims claimed the late Christian apologist engaged in “sexting, unwanted touching, spiritual abuse, and rape” during his life.
