POPE FRANCIS: The White Knight to Save the World?
Other than a few oblique references to Bible passages in his speech to his bishops, no significant reference to Scripture or the Bible can be found in any of the pope’s main speeches.

Exclusive: UN ignores science council warnings in creating vast Sustainable Development Goals

CCRKBA Chief Rips President For Politicizing UCC Tragedy
BELLEVUE, WA – The head of the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms today ripped into President Barack Obama for acknowledging that he wants to “politicize” the shooting at Oregon’s Umpqua Community College, calling it “a deplorable exploitation of a tragedy to push an anti-rights agenda.”

Guns Don’t Kill People—Liberals Kill People
Community College in Roseburg, Oregon. Another mass shooting, another excuse for the left-wing vultures to prey on the carcasses of the dead. Another opportunity for Pres__ent Obama to grandstand and huff and sigh and affect an air of righteous indignation. Another occasion for left-wingers to roll their eyes and complain about how, even after this shooting, those dastardly right-wingers still won’t support “common sense gun laws.”

A New Global Police to Fight “Violent Extremism” in the U.S.?
The Obama Administration plans to create a global police force that counters “violent extremism” in the United States and elsewhere. The problem is that in Obama-speak “violent extremism” refers not only to jihadists wishing to harm Americans but also to conservatives and Tea Party activists. Just ask all the law-abiding right-of-center nonprofit groups targeted by Lois Lerner’s IRS during the Obama presidency.

End of ISIS? Putin sends in his most ruthless special forces killers to finish off jihadis
The Russian supremo ordered the deployment of soldiers from his fearsome Spetsnaz unit to root out and eliminate packs of fleeing jihadis.

After meeting with genocidal madman in Sudan, ‘Clock Boy’ moves to Qatar
Ahmed Mohamed loves two things: making clocks and freedom. If the media is to be believed (it’s not) this terrific young man is a spectacular student, lauded by his longtime teachers, who simply made a homemade clock to bring to science class. He’s also a Muslim who was denied the freedom he loves by the bigoted, racist, country he has the misfortune of calling home. All he wanted was to be accepted and live a quiet, peaceful, life ensconced in academic pursuits.

On top of that, a misinterpreted by much of the media positioned Palestinian rage being caused by excessive Israeli military attacks against defenseless Palestinians. This was also known as “disproportionate force.”

Moskoff's's theories go beyond the ark's location.

Our Youth Need to Be Told
The wise thinkers of history have always understood that political systems are the products of our conception of truth and justice. Since 1776, we in America have believed that a just political system must be based upon a concept of rights, and government must be enshrined as a protector of those rights. This, as the Declaration of Independence states so eloquently, is the purpose of government.

It’s not global warming but One World Government that’s gobbling society

The Vindication of Reed Irvine
When Reed Irvine started Accuracy in Media, he was hoping that the public would begin to question the sources of news and information. His mission to educate the public about liberal media bias has been so successful that, as Mike Flynn notes in a perceptive piece at Breitbart, candidates like Donald Trump and Ben Carson surge when they are attacked by the media. Many regard media attacks as proof that the candidate is saying something that is politically incorrect and therefore makes political sense.
