Americans Are Waking Up to the Effects of Same-Sex “Marriage”
It has been 10 years since the United States Supreme Court declared in Obergefell v. Hodges that same-sex couples have the legal right to marry. More Americans are waking up to the profound effects that that ruling (and LGBT activism) have had on the country. Parents are tired of LGBT messaging being pushed on their kids...

Reaffirming Parental Rights
The SCOTUS ruling in Mahmoud v. Taylor is a game-changer for parental rights in public education. While the case centers on LGBTQ+ storybooks in classrooms, its implications reach far beyond reading lists. For the first time in decades, the Court has affirmed that parents have a constitutional right to shield their children from instruction that contradicts their religious beliefs—without needing to prove coercion.

Two Honorable Justices
The U.S. Supreme Court's refusal to hear a critical First Amendment case effectively grants government schools judicial backing to censor student speech, upholding the prohibition against "There are only two genders" and "There are censored genders" T-shirts.

Attention Pastors: The “Lemon Test” Was Overturned
Did you know? When the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of Joe Kennedy, the high school football coach who fought for his right to pray after games, they overturned a decision that had long restricted religious expression in public schools. This was a historically significant ruling that restores the civil rights of teachers, coaches and employees across America to live out their faith and pray on a public school campus.

Questions for Those Who Differ with the SCOTUS Decision in Favor of a Christian Graphic Artist
Last week the U.S. Supreme Court issued its landmark decision that Lorie Smith, a Colorado-based Christian graphic artist and web designer, did not have to create content that violated her beliefs. In response, the editor-in-chief of Mother Jones, tweeted, “perhaps gay stylists, designers, caterers, and planners should start withholding services from Christian conservatives and see where that goes.”

Prayer Alert: Our Response to the Potential Repeal of Roe v. Wade
The BIG news of the week has been confirmed by Chief Justice John Roberts -- the U.S. Supreme Court is poised to overturn Roe v. Wade in the very near future, possibly by the end of June. In a news release from the High Court, however, they were careful to point out that, although the leaked draft opinion by Justice Samuel Alito is authentic, "it does not represent a decision by the Court or the final position of any member on the issues in the case." In other words, the ruling is not official yet.

SCOTUS Nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson’s Stupefying Answers
U.S. Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson has provided sufficient evidence for the U.S. Senate to vote against her nomination to fill Justice Stephen Breyer’s seat following the full-court press he received from leftists to abdicate his lifelong seat before the 2024 election. That evidence includes her stupefying claim that she is unable to define “woman” because she’s not a biologist. The press has profligately identified Jackson as a “woman.” Has anyone confirmed that with a biologist?
Jackson’s claim was made in response to a line of questioning by U.S. Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) who began by citing the …

Are Young People Too Apathetic About the Life Issue?
Over Christmas break, I was hanging out with some friends and as we were playing some games in their basement, the topic of abortion was brought up. I stated my belief that all abortions are wrong. I did not think much of saying this as I assumed that they would at least somewhat agree with me. But shockingly, I was wrong. The two friends that were with me have been my friends since a very young age, and I know that they grew up in staunchly conservative families, yet they still were surprisingly of the pro-choice mindset. The disturbing thing is that they agreed abortion was murder and that it takes the life of an innocent child.

Is a State Constitutional Amendment For Abortion Expected?
When our state lawmaker convene the 103rd General Assembly on January 11th, Democrats may immediately push for a Constitutional Amendment on Abortion, hoping to permanently enshrine abortion as a legal right in Illinois.
The recent election revealed that abortion was a decisive topic, driving women and men alike to the polls.
However, despite statistics showing a relatively even split on the abortion issue, election results prove that Illinois is even more left-leaning than believed.
Illinois Senate Minority Leader-Elect John Curran (R-Lemont) admits in defeat that Illinois has all but constitutionalized abortion, being the most liberal state when it comes to …
