Our intrepid progressives have tossed Christopher Columbus and his special day of remembrance to their ash heap of history. They have instead created something they find much more noble. They call it Indigenous Peoples’ Day. This day, they assure us, will allow Americans to honor [...]
Bill Donohue What if a bigot, armed with hundreds of explosives, were to turn up at the headquarters of GLAAD, the huge LGBTQ organization, on Transgender Day of Remembrance, and threatened to blow up the building and kill as many trans persons as he could? What if the target were a Detroit mosque on Eid-al-Fitr, the [...]

The National Institutes of Health, along with support from private foundations, raised $22 million to do a landmark four-year study of the poor. They recruited 1,000 poor [...]
Bill Donohue Sen. Dick Durbin has declined the “Lifetime Achievement Award” that he was scheduled to receive from the Archdiocese of Chicago.

Bill Donohue Is New York City mayoral hopeful Zohran Mamdani a Communist? He says he is not, but that doesn’t mean much. After all, he knows he could not win running on the Communist Party line because it is not one of the nine political parties on the ballot in November. Mamdani was groomed by his [...]
Bill Donohue On the morning of September 23, I issued a news release about a “Lifetime Achievement Award” being given to Sen. Dick Durbin on November 3 by the Archdiocese of Chicago. As I detailed, it was already setting off alarms among the clergy and the laity. The reason is simple: there has never been an [...]
Bill Donohue In an interview Hillary Clinton had with Rachel Maddow on September 24, she bemoaned the current state of disunity in the country, blaming white conservative Christian men for ruining the nation. She accused them of trying to “turn the clock back” in an effort to “recreate a world that was never dominated, you know—let’s [...]
