Hundreds of members of the liberal mainstream media, including those representing NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, Huffington Post, New York Times, have decided to choose a hostage negotiator to help free them from Pres.

In an unusual step at restricting speech and assembly, Gonzaga University has banned Jesus from appearing as an itinerant preacher at their campus. Judith Biggs Garbuio, Gonzaga University’s vice president of student development, said Jesus' presence on Gonzaga University grounds violates Gonzaga’s Events Policy. It’s hard not to like Mitt Romney as a brilliant technocrat and a savvy businessman, but easy to dislike him as a change agent on the order of Pres. Trump. For that reason, his column in the Washington Post reads like a lot of wine (whine) in need of pairing with an appropriate cheese.
Which is worse? Not having Christmas presents to give to children for Christmas, or not having children to give them to because they are dead? That's really the options that we have before us in regard to border security with Mexico. An insecure border is dangerous both for people in the U.S. and in Mexico, for the simple reason that it gives control of the border to Mexican drug cartels, instead of the U.S.

SEATTLE, WA - Online retailer Amazon may offer bionic arm and leg replacement for their warehouse workers who are struggling to keep up with the pace at their warehouses across the globe. The retailer, with dozens of giant warehouses dotting the American and European landscape, has been accused of treating their workers like robots. It’s isn’t a wonderful life for liberals with Trump in the White House, with the latest Saturday Night Live skit showing how much they hate the guy. But their version of It’s a Wonderful Life is a skewed version of the movie, which starred Jimmy Stewart.
Chicago Mayor Rahm “Dead fish” Emanuel is looking for a novel way to clean up the dead body stench on the streets of Chicago as the body count continues to rise. Problem is, Emanuel and other Democrats are better at sending dead fish, not solving problems in inner cities.

LOS ANGELES, CA - Representative-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s persona is the subject of a remake of "Legally Blonde," to be called "Congressionally Blonde." A number of Hollywood producers are talking about her personality for the role made famous by Reese Witherspoon.

BOSTON, MA - Pocahontas has declined an invitation from Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s campaign to stand with her during her many campaign rallies across the state of Massachusetts. Warren is up for election this year, after being elected in 2012 as a first -time senator in the state. As I a part-time observer of science, I have come to the conclusion that many scientists who are Christians are not comfortable with talking about Genesis or the fact that Jesus claimed to be the ultimate creator and designer of the universe.

Lexington, VA - The Lexington restaurant The Red Hen will change its name to The Little Red Heckler, following the successful removal of Pres. Trump’s Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders from their restaurant. The recent decision by Starbucks to allow everybody - panhandlers and the homeless to use their bathrooms helps us understand the some of the reasons why we as a nation are having trouble dealing with people who do not wish to contribute to society in a meaningful way. It's a great idea to help the homeless and others. It's just that it's not the best idea to give them de facto rights to use bathrooms for any purpose at a restaurant.

Greta Gerwig gets the last laugh on the nuns at the Catholic school of her old high school, St. Francis School in Sacramento. As the writer and director of "Lady Bird," Gerwig's creativity lets loose a lashing on Catholic school teachers and the Catholic church.
Drake’s song, and video about God’s plan - "God's plan," is like a modern tale on popularity in America and the world. It demonstrates how people don’t really care about the message of the song, so long as they can be seen with a rich, popular star.
It’s strange that some people would not want to at least know why Christians are so serious about their religion in regard to baking wedding cakes. It’s kind of important to the history of the world, since our dating system is in fact a memorial to the death of Jesus Christ, a carpenter who claimed to be God and to have died for the sins of the world.
Justice Sonia Sotomayor is not a friend of Christian cake bakers who wish to express their religious beliefs through baking a cake, or not baking a cake, depending on the ceremony.
Americans heard about torture and its horrors when the CIA used it in Guantanamo Bay Cuba on the people who planned 9/1/1 attack. They decided not to read the Muslim terrorists their Miranda rights. But torture as a nasty practice did not start with the CIA. There is a long history of Muslims denying the rights of people and using creative methods to torture them.
Michael Gerson attempts to provide some guidance to the political and religious climate as it relates to our dear president, Donald Trump. As a Washington Post columnist, he wrote an article for Atlantic, “The Last Temptation: How evangelicals, once culturally confident, became an anxious minority seeking political protection from the least traditionally religious president in living memory.”
