If Dems Feel Like Kings Atop Their Hill . . . The Only Direction They Have To Fall Is Down

February 14, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on If Dems Feel Like Kings Atop Their Hill . . . The Only Direction They Have To Fall Is Down

By DEXTER DUGGAN The question of who wins the 2024 presidential election already is answered if Republicans now think only along the lines of starting to develop policy positions, sound out focus groups, and connect with think tanks instead of remembering the bigger picture.The winner will be whichever left-wing Democrat gets that party’s nomination, to come out on top the same way Joe Biden did in 2020, aided by U.S. oligarchs.And if 2024 does end up that way, so might every subsequent election as defenseless Republicans disappear into irrelevancy.Conservative radio talk host James T. Harris warned of the looming threat on Phoenix-based major station KFYI (550 AM) on February 5. “America is nearing the last exit on the highway to…Continue Reading

To Defend The Present, We Must Understand The Past

February 13, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on To Defend The Present, We Must Understand The Past

By CHRISTOPHER MANION In tumultuous times, the endless flurry of events can distract us from the fundamentals of life. And some folks want it that way.It’s no secret that malevolent forces rely on disorder, even chaos, as cover for their destructive schemes. When those forces find allies among the broader population, even enjoying the support of willing cooperators from the cultural elites, a nation’s bedrock principles can no longer be taken for granted. They must be defended at all costs — which means that they must first be understood.It often seems that America’s enemies understand those principles better than her defenders do. “Know the enemy,” said Sun Tzu. Leftists at home and abroad recognize well how America’s faith and our…Continue Reading

What Are You Looking For?

February 12, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on What Are You Looking For?

By JOE SIXPACK A young man had spent his youth enjoying the pleasures of the world — both legitimate and sinful pleasures. Then one day he was in a serious car accident that put him in the hospital, badly injured with the prognosis that he might never walk or be normal again…if he lived at all.Lying in the hospital bed, he had a lot of time to think. He began to realize how foolishly he’d been wasting his life looking in all the wrong places to find happiness through pleasures of the body. He promised God that if He healed him, he would spend the rest of his life living for Him.God answered the young man’s prayer and did indeed…Continue Reading

February 11, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on Journal Editorial Ill-Informed… After Arizona GOP Issues Censures, Chairman’s Victory Challenged

By DEXTER DUGGAN PHOENIX — The Arizona Republican Party’s censure of some big GOP names around here at its annual meeting in January was followed by a contretemps for the party itself.After assembled state GOP committeemen voted to censure Cindy McCain, the widow of the late U.S. Sen. John McCain, as well as former U.S. Sen. Jeff Flake and Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey, the results of their vote for state party chairman came under challenge, even though incumbent chair Kelli Ward and opponent Sergio Arellano both are Donald Trump supporters.Ward subsequently didn’t cooperate in a request for an audit of her victory.The results for chairman “had little to nothing to do with Trump, and any attempt to silo the players…Continue Reading

Finding The Threshold Of Heaven On Earth

February 10, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on Finding The Threshold Of Heaven On Earth

By JAMES MONTI In the Book of Genesis we read that when the patriarch Jacob paused to rest for the night at the place that would come to be called Bethel, he experienced a remarkable dream: “And he dreamed that there was a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven; and behold, the angels of God were ascending and descending on it! And behold, the Lord stood above it” (Gen. 28:12-13). Jacob’s reaction to this vision is quite telling: “Surely the Lord is in this place. . . . How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven” (Gen. 28:16-17).Jacob’s dream…Continue Reading

By FR. RICHARD D. BRETON JR. (Editor’s Note: Fr. Richard D. Breton Jr. is a priest of the Diocese of Norwich, Conn. He received his BA in religious studies and his MA in dogmatic theology from Holy Apostles College and Seminary in Cromwell, Conn.) + + It is hard to believe that February is already upon us. It is even harder to believe how close to the Lenten Season we are. This Holy Season of Lent is preceded by the celebration of “carnival” more commonly known as Mardi gras. The Carnival of Mardi Gras usually begins after the Epiphany and ends the night before Ash Wednesday, called Mardi gras, or Fat Tuesday. Currently, many people around the world are celebrating…Continue Reading

Election Redux

February 8, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on Election Redux

By DEACON MIKE MANNO The fight over election laws, expanded mail-in voting, verification requirements — and several other issues that caused a nationwide debate during the 2020 election — is being fought in two venues which could produce contradictory results.In the East Coast corner, representing the Democrats, the House is now considering HR 1, a proposed law entitled “For the People Act of 2021” which, if passed, would effectively legalize many of the controversial “emergency rules” which opponents claim stole last year’s election from President Trump.In the West Coast corner, representing the “Stop the Steal” crowd, is a coalition of conservative groups who are in federal court in California seeking a declaratory judgment that many of the state’s election rules…Continue Reading

Victory Over Evil Already Won . . .  But God’s Not Handing Out The Trophy Yet

February 7, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on Victory Over Evil Already Won . . .  But God’s Not Handing Out The Trophy Yet

By DEXTER DUGGAN Achievement doesn’t start by sleeping under the goal posts, or walking the distance of one foot to reach home plate. What’s the point of competition if there basically is none? You’re not fulfilled by coming up empty. Sports celebrity Tim Tebow grew up knowing that.A video shows Tebow, also an impressive Christian philanthropist, recounting that God told his surprised parents to add a fifth baby to their family, which turned out to be him. Tebow said this was a difficult pregnancy for his mother, and he was expected to be stillborn. Doctors recommended an abortion, but his parents said no.Their lives eventually worked out well. However, think of what the world would lack if he weren’t around to…Continue Reading

Welcome To Washington’s BMZ

February 6, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on Welcome To Washington’s BMZ

By CHRISTOPHER MANION Capitol Hill, known collectively as “the People’s House,” is now surrounded by a twelve-foot-high stockade topped with rolled barbed wire. Military veterans liken it to the fortifications surrounding Baghdad’s “Green Zone.” That’s the “International Zone” that houses the Iraqi government and the U.S. Embassy in Iraq, which is still the target of frequent terrorist missile attacks.The original purpose of the stockade was to “Protect the Capitol” during the inauguration on January 20. Of course, nobody was going to show up, but so what? Its purpose is more abiding. It symbolizes the designs of the Democrat regime that now rules the White House and Capitol Hill.As the seven-foot fence (now doubled in height to twelve feet plus two…Continue Reading

Lazarus

February 5, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on Lazarus

By JOE SIXPACK Of all Jesus’ parables, only one tells the name of any character. The parable I’m talking about is the one we call “Lazarus and Dives” or “Lazarus and the Rich Man” (Luke 16:19-31). This is the story Jesus told of a beggar who was afflicted with horrible open sores. He lay outside the rich man’s gate, wanting only to be fed from the waste that fell from the rich man’s table, but the rich man ignored him. According to Jesus’ story, Lazarus died and was carried by the angels to “Abraham’s bosom.” The rich man also died and was buried.Due to the way the rich man had lived in his lack of charity, he was punished with…Continue Reading
