Pride Messaging Down 40% from 2022 as Boycotts Explode |
by Suzanne Bowdey |
It was a normal Wednesday commute, crawling across the 14th Street Bridge with thousands of other frustrated D.C. drivers - until out the corner of my eye, I saw the metro glide across the tracks next to us. There, suspended above the Potomac, were eight cars - all wrapped in transgender and rainbow flags - headed into the most powerful city in the world. Even now, weeks into this contrived celebration, it was a jarring picture of how insufferable the Pride movement has become. Deep into June, you can't blame Americans for wondering: When will this train of extremism end? |

Progressive 'Christians' Can Now Confess Heresy with 'Sparkle Creed' |
by Joshua Arnold |
"Let us confess our faith today in the words of the Sparkle Creed." Thus Pastor Anna Helgenled the congregants of Edina Community Lutheran Church, an ELCA member in a Minneapolis suburb, which has been "LGBTQIA+ inclusive" since 1985. "I think it's a stretch to call this a church," said Family Research Council President Tony Perkins, because "to be a Christian is to follow Christ." While historic creeds distill the Christian faith to clarify truth and error, the "Sparkle Creed" is neither historic nor Christian. It is, however, clarifying. |

President Touts 'Bidenomics' as Public Skepticism, Inflation Persist |
by Dan Hart |
On Wednesday, President Joe Biden delivered a speech in Chicago centered on the economy, in which he plugged "Bidenomics" as the "future" and "just another way of saying: Restore the American dream." But polls show that a substantial majority of the American public does not share the president's enthusiasm about the economy amid persistent inflation and foreboding economic forecasts. |
