Catholics worldwide are mourning the loss of Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, who occupied the Chair of Saint Peter from 2005 until 2013. He passed away on New Year’s Eve at the age of 95. More than 100,000 have visited St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City since Monday to pay their respects to the former pontiff, whose mortal remains lie in state there until Wednesday evening. Born Joseph Ratzinger on April 16, 1927 in Bavaria, he was ordained to the priesthood in 1951 and served as a peritus (expert advisor) at the Second Vatican Council in the 1960s. His career included time alternately as a university professor, archbishop, and cardinal, and he was a celebrated author. Click for ...

At an event hosted by the Fox Cities chapters of the John Birch Society in Appleton, Wisconsin, Constitutional scholar Robert Brown addresses the harsh realities about a so-called “Convention of States,” debunking the various false and deceptive claims made by the organization Convention of States (COS) and its co-founder Mark Meckler. Brown examines what really happened at the Philadelphia Convention of 1787, the 12 state commissions, what the delegates actually said, and its bearing on a modern constitutional convention under Article V. Brown also discusses the origins of the term “convention of the states” and what is a constitutional convention. Click for Full Text!

The team of five ultra-woke economists on California Governor Gavin Newsom’s controversial Reparations Task Force includes a professor who has called for nationwide reparations of up to $14 trillion. The group will determine just how much eligible black Californians are owed for supposed harms inflicted on African Americans in the state due to slavery and social injustice. Last June, the California Task Force to Study and Develop Reparation Proposals for African Americans (Reparations Task Force) released an interim report on the supposed “harms inflicted on African Americans in California and across the nation due to the ongoing legacy of slavery and systemic ...

It's a victory for the privacy of landlords and renters in Zion, Illinois, as the city has formally agreed to change its rental inspection laws to comply with Fourth Amendment protections against warrantless searches. The mayor and City Council of Zion, population just under 25,000, passed a rental inspection ordinance in 2015 that required all property owners to apply for certification for any residences they wanted to lease. Part of the requirement to get a rental certificate was to allow any rental unit to be inspected by city officials every year. If a landlord fails to follow the rules, they can be fined $750 per day until they comply. Click for Full Text!
Free-Market Capitalism is the Next American Economy

America is in the midst of an identity crisis, and it’s probably not the kind you’d think. Our nation is wrecked by an abysmal economy and unhappy people losing confidence in their country. In such unhappiness, people on both sides of the political aisle too often propose “solutions” that grant the government more control of our lives, even though that control is usually the source of the problem. The American experiment has paved the way for millions to escape poverty and build a better life via a free-market system with a constitutional republic that encourages innovation and results in more human flourishing than ever before. We need to get back to those roots. ...

Canadian psychologist Jordan Peterson said on Tuesday that may lose his license unless he submits to mandatory “social-media communication retraining” by the College of Psychologists of Ontario, his home province’s licensing authority. “I face public disgrace, mandatory political re-education, disciplinary hearing and potential loss of my clinical licensing for agreeing with [Conservative MP] Pierre Poilievre and criticizing our standing [Prime Minister] Justin Trudeau,” Peterson said on Twitter.

Southwest's Meltdown Reminds Us We Must End Airlines' Corporate Welfare

Southwest Airlines experience an enormous meltdown over the Christmas holiday week last month, cancelling thousands of flights, and losing track of—or outright losing—countless pieces of luggage. The airline was full of excuses, of course. As has become fashionable for government and corporate screw-ups, airline management attempted to blame covid for staffing problems. Southwest also blamed the weather. It's amazing they didn't also try to somehow blame "Russia's war in Ukraine"—as the stock phrase now goes—as well. Yet, no other major airline had nearly the troubles that Southwest had in terms of either weather delays or staffing problems. ...

The forces are mounting that will eventually overwhelm most Americans and send their standard of living to unknown depths. Americans that have only known the post WWII prosperity are ill equipped and educated to deal with depression level living. Easy credit and instant gratification have created a nation of whining, self absorbed, entitlement minded people with no moral or mental toughness. Doug Casey believes we are headed for what he calls a super depression created by the ending of a debt super cycle. The bigger the debt cycle the bigger the depression that follows. That’s how reality works and most people are not prepared for reality. Click for Full Text!

For outdoor aficionados, there is no grander continent than South America. With its Andean peaks, Patagonian glaciers, world-famous Brazilian beaches, vast tropical rainforests, and gargantuan waterfalls, South America is arguably the most splendid tract of real estate on the face of the earth. Historically, it has also been blessed with more than its fair share of economic prosperity and comparative lack of major wars. During the two world wars of the 20th century, South America was left unscathed. Many South American countries, including Argentina and Brazil, have attracted huge numbers of immigrants. Last month, South Americans were overjoyed to see one of their own — Argentina ...

In December, U.S. President Joe Biden signed into law the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for fiscal year 2023. The NDAA would authorize $770 billion in defense spending, the White House reported on Dec. 27 — $45 billion more than Biden had requested earlier in 2022. Also incorporated in this huge defense spending package is a legislative initiative to boost relations between the United States and Taiwan, an ally of Washington. In particular, this new act would authorize up to $10 billion in “Foreign Military Financing” grants through 2027 to Taiwan to overhaul its security abilities and enhance its capacity to defend itself in the event of an invasion by mainland ...

The Canadian Government is being urged to delay plans to introduce assisted suicide for the mentally ill and children from next year. Canada has some of the weakest protections for the elderly and vulnerable against pressure to end one’s life by assisted suicide and euthanasia. There is no requirement that a person be terminally ill to request assisted suicide or euthanasia. There were over 10,000 deaths by assisted suicide and euthanasia in Canada 2021.

Israel’s far-right national security minister Itamar Ben-Gvir entered the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in occupied East Jerusalem in a move Palestinians called a “deliberate provocation”, ignoring warnings from Israeli politicians that his appearance at the holy site would inflame tensions. Ben-Gvir said he would not “surrender to the threats of Hamas” after the Palestinian group warned that his entrance to the site on Tuesday would cross a “red line”. Click for Full Text!
For Now, Innovation and Entrepreneurship Still Holds a High Place in the USA

Commentators worry that the United States might lose its dominance in innovation to Asian countries like China and Singapore. Many policymakers are intimidated by the R&D budgets of Asian countries and by their superior performance on international academic assessments. However, these concerns are misguided because the United States still dominates innovation. The United States ranks second on the Global Innovation Index and scores the highest in the world on fifteen of eighty-one innovation indicators. The US innovation ecosystem continues to lead in the commercialization of research, and its universities are on the cutting edge of academic research. Other countries are expanding ...

Fox News Digital’s Houston Keene begins his lengthy and wholly supportive story by reminding his readers that pro-life Crisis Pregnancy Centers— often also called Pregnancy Help Centers today—“have endured vandalism and attacks at the hands of ravenous protesters angered by the overturn of Roe v. Wade and the events leading up to it.” But CPCs are staffed by a determined lot who insist on carrying on their life-affirming work. For example… Keene writes, “Two crisis pregnancy centers in and around the nation’s capital, the Capitol Hill Pregnancy Center in Washington, D.C., and Life First in Manassas, Virginia, opened their doors to Fox News Digital to ...

The neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) in Pomona, New Jersey-based AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center’s (ARMC) Center for Childbirth bade farewell to one of its smallest residents. After spending 35 weeks under the care of the NICU’s nurses and physicians, preemie Zavannah Rodriguez finally went home to her family. Zavannah was born on July 29th at just 23 weeks’ gestation, weighing in at a mere 1 pound and 2 ounces, making her the second most premature baby born at the medical center. Although just over halfway to full term, a preborn baby of Zavannah’s gestational age is remarkable in her development, able to hear noises outside the womb, suck her thumb, swallow, ...

In the Internet age, I think we all know how easy it is to dash something off, take a quick look (maybe even two), and push “send.” I try my darndest not to fall into that trap, and no doubt you do as well. Having said that, many the times I honestly ask myself, do pro- abortionists actually listen to what they say or read what they write?

Comparing Christmas today with Christmases past, David Waugh and Laura Williams eloquently explain that we ordinary Americans in 2022 are far wealthier than were ordinary Americans of just a few decades ago. We are fortunate indeed to live where and when we do! But evidence of our enormous prosperity, and of its source, is found not only in that which during the holiday season is seen – gifts, decorations, food, and holiday entertainment – but also in that which is not seen… or, rather, in that which is ignored and discarded.
