Faith and Justice

No one knows exactly when the Supreme Court will issue its decisions in the ObamaCare and Arizona immigration cases. No one except the Justices and those who work for them. In a world where leaks abound, the Supreme Court is one of the very few institutions in America where leaks are very rare and simply not tolerated.…

It didn’t take long. Just days after the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in March on the constitutionality of ObamaCare, President Obama lashed out – chastising the Justices of the high court. If the Justices reject ObamaCare, the President warned that the Court would be taking an “unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that…

We have filed our amicus brief with the federal appeals court backing a decision by Texas to stop using taxpayer funds for abortion and to halt funding that ends up subsidizing Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion provider. As you may recall, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit overturned a lower court decision and…

The U.S. Attorney General – the nation’s top law enforcement officer. A difficult job under any circumstances. And a position that often generates controversy. Now, there’s growing criticism that Attorney General Eric Holder is playing politics, especially when it comes to determining which cases to prosecute, and which to ignore. In an interview with Megyn…

With his re-election campaign in high gear, President Obama is focusing on his outreach to women. And, make no mistake about it, the president’s pro-abortion track record regarding the funding of programs in this country and abroad has not gone unnoticed. In fact, President Obama just received a very strong endorsement from NARAL, one of…

Our friends at Present Truth Ministries have received a letter from Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani, who faces a death sentence in Iran because of his Christian beliefs. As you know, we’ve been working in this country and abroad to secure the release of Pastor Youcef. In his letter, he encourages the members of his congregation and supporters…

Newsweek has published an interesting and very telling investigative story that reveals that despite a lot of fanfare about the creation of a massive task force to probe and prosecute financial fraud, Eric Holder’s Justice Department has little to show after nearly four years. The story also raises important questions about whether the lack of…

938 days. That’s how long Christian Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani has been imprisoned in Iran. His crime? He embraced Christianity and started a church. Now, with Pastor Youcef facing the death penalty, his situation is even more precarious. We reported last week that Pastor Youcef’s attorney has now been targeted by the Iranian regime. He’s been…

In just a matter of hours, we heard from more than 10,000 Americans (a number that continues to climb) who understand that taxpayer funds should not be used to fund abortions at Planned Parenthood. We first reported about this important pro-life win yesterday. A federal appeals court granted an emergency request – putting a lower court…

It was an extraordinary exchange. Rep. Trey Gowdy, (R-SC) asking Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Sebelius to explain the constitutional implications involved in the HHS mandate, which is under attack for violating the religious beliefs of millions of Americans. The mandate requires employers to purchase health insurance for their employees that includes coverage for…
