Interviewed Rebecca Bratten Weiss on Connecting the Dots today

Since, as Dave Armstrong notes, the character assassins and inquisitors at Lifesite News did not have the integrity to so much as talk to Rebecca before pasting together the sub-8th grade hatchet job they did on her, I thought I’d give her a chance to speak on my podcast.  She acquitted herself well: As you’ll […]

Blessed are the Peacemakers

From Daryl Davis, peacemaker: * People make the mistake of forming anti-racist groups that are rendered ineffective from the start because ONLY invite those who share their beliefs to their meetings. * Provide a safe neutral meeting place. * Learn as much as you can about the ideology of a racist or perceived racist in […]

What will be fascinating to watch is the bulk of his party outraged because he’s not building the wall or heaping cruelty on Dreamers and the small, perpetually used and discard prolife group astonished that Lucy has, yet […]
