Bill Donohue comments on a report issued by the U.N. Committee on the Rights of the Child: Last month, both Israel and B'nai B'rith International blasted a totally politicized report by the U.N.

Bill Donohue comments on Pope Francis’ crackdown on sex abuse: As Pope Francis proved today, he has no stomach for child exploitation, or for any type of sexual abuse.

By contrast, there is not a single institution, secular or religious, that [...]
Bill Donohue comments on the deposition by Cardinal Timothy Dolan that was released today regarding his tenure as Archbishop of Milwaukee; the deposition was taken in February: Under questioning by Jeffrey Anderson, an activist lawyer, Cardinal Dolan gravely disappointed the enemies of the Catholic Church: they were denied their “gotcha” moment.
