If you didn't know any better, senators said, you'd have thought it was an NFL arena. When Republicans walked in the committee room to vote on Amy Coney Barrett's nomination, the Democrats weren't there. Instead, their colleagues had been replaced by cardboard photos -- poster-sized pictures of random Americans with fixed smiles, looking on like a row of fake fans lining a stadium stand. Only this wasn't a stadium. It was the Senate Judiciary Committee. But thanks to liberals, games were still being played.

If you don't see a lot of bumper stickers for Donald Trump in your area, it's not because he has less support, a new poll explains. At least 59 percent of the president's supporters told the University of New Hampshire that they don't advertise their choice for fear their cars would be vandalized. Only 16 percent of Biden fans said the same. Even fewer -- 14 percent -- worried about their houses with yard signs, while 52 percent of Trump supporters thought their property would be damaged if they tried. Is this part of the "silent majority" people are talking about? George Barna thinks so.

A Win for Churches in Colorado
|
|
|
When the pandemic first swept across the nation this spring, state and local authorities took quick action, enacting a series of restrictions and mandates designed to protect public health and safety. With the goal of "flattening the curve," officials asked Americans to temporarily set aside some of their liberties to ensure hospitals did not exceed capacity. This included asking churches and religious organizations to suspend in-person worship services and meetings. The vast majority complied.

The Transgender Craze: 'The Permanent Medicalization of a Whole Generation of Children'
|
|
|
On October 15 during a town hall event, Joe Biden said something truly disturbing: "The idea that an 8-year-old child or a 10-year-old child decides, 'you know, I decided I want to be transgender' ... there should be zero discrimination." Let's pause and think about that for a second. Should 8-year-old children, who often can't make up their mind about what they want for lunch, be given completely free reign to "change" their gender through drugs that permanently block normal growth and cause irreversible sterility and through surgery that mutilates their bodies?
