Thanks to Illinois Senators Heather Steans (D-Chicago), Mattie Hunter (D-Chicago), David Koehler (D-Peoria), Iris Martinez (D-Chicago), and Pat McGuire (D-Joliet), the Equal Rights Amendments (SJRCA 75) is rearing its ugly, genderless head again. These lawmakers, at the urging of Governor...

After a lovely Mother’s Day, I awoke to a dispiriting collection of news stories that point to the rapid degradation of truth and, therefore, the public weal. Here are just three:
1.) Barack Obama’s Defense Secretary, Chuck Hagel, wants the...

As a result of my lack of interest in comic book superheroes, I have never seen an X-Men movie, nor even read a review of one—until today. What prompted me to read about the X-Men movies is a hair-raising lawsuit filed by 31-year-old Michael Egan who is accusing X-Men writer and director Bryan Singer of drugging and raping him when Egan was between the ages of 15-17 and openly homosexual Singer was 32.

It shouldn’t have taken the forced resignation of Mozilla CEO Brendan Eich for the Left to admit that homosexual activists and their water-carrying ideological servants have no interest in dialogue, diversity, or tolerance. Jack-booted homosexualists demanded that Eich, co-founder of...
