Abraham's Journey
(A few housekeeping notes: 1) Of late, some commenters have adopted excessively salty language, which we frown on here. I have instructed moderators either to not clear such comments or, if the comment has compelling value, to edit out excessive saltiness before clearing it. 2) I was stunned to discover on Facebook that I have […]
Read More A Terrible ResolveBy Charlie Johnston Many are shaken now that the battle over abortion has ventured into the territory of outright infanticide. It is right it should be so. It is hideous to see people who constantly congratulate themselves on their superior morality revealing that they don’t even have the most basic form of decency. It is […]
Read More The End of the Beginning – Part IIIBy Charlie Johnston As this decade began, every leftist leader in America – and most of the world – was pointing to Venezuela under the guidance of strongman Hugo Chavez, as the icon of what we should all aspire to become. They were downright fawning over how Chavez had shown how a “just” society could […]
Read More The End of The Beginning, Part I(This piece is the first person account of a woman who journeyed from radical feminist to faithful, orthodox Catholic. Collen DeLima is a friend of our team member, Lisa Huber. I love this story because it illustrates a great truth: fear and hurt often present as anger. Some people are just angry jerks, but many […]
Read More Unshackled – One Woman’s StoryBy Charlie Johnston I am not in Denver right now…haven’t been for over a month. I am working on a pro-life project…continuing to hoe the garden, as it were, as best I can for as long as I can. In the last week, I met with one very faithful traditionalist Catholic who nervously informed me […]
Read More Keep Your Eyes on JesusBy Charlie Johnston Let me start with some good news. On Friday the National Abortion Federation (NAF) voluntarily dismissed 7 of the 11 counts in their federal lawsuit against David Daleiden and his organization, the Center for Medical Progress (CMP). The only counts NAF has not dismissed are those that are necessary to try to […]
Read More Under SiegeBy Charlie Johnston I watched Rudy Giuliani’s lengthy interview with Sean Hannity last night with a politician’s eye. It was HUGE (or YUGE as a fellow big on the public scene might say). This is the beginning of President Trump’s serious assault on the Deep State. This, I think, may well be the month when […]
Read More Giuliani Launches Real Trump Counter-AttackBy Charlie Johnston No matter what Robert Mueller dredges up, I will stand with Donald Trump and the legitimately elected government. It wasn’t always that way. Two years ago, I opposed Trump; a year and a half ago, I regarded him with disdain; now I stand foursquare behind him, warts and all. That is because […]
Read More On the Bank of the Rubicon – Short TakesBy Charlie Johnston Some very good things are going on in the pro-life movement just behind the scenes. Readers here are probably interested in how things went for Texas Right-to-Life (TRTL)endorsed candidates in last Tuesday’s primary. It was a very good night for them and their allies in what they call the Freedom […]
Read More Pro-Life UpdateBy Charlie Johnston In late spring of 2016, an attendee at a talk I was giving in Las Vegas said she thought that Donald Trump was God’s plan for America and wanted to know what I thought. “Well, God can do anything, so it’s possible,” I replied, then added drily, “but if that […]
