Nearly two months ago – as part of our ongoing effort to end the ISIS genocide against Christians – we sent a letter to Adama Dieng, the Special Adviser to the Secretary-General on the Prevention of... read more

The GOP has put forward their final attempt to repeal ObamaCare this year: The Graham-Cassidy-Heller-Johnson bill, also known as Graham-Cassidy . Vice President Mike Pence has aptly described this as “ our last best chance to stop and turn [ObamaCare] around .” Time is of the essence because the reconciliation process that allows the Senate leadership to pass this reform with a simple majority vote expires on September 30, 2017. After this, there is no chance that the unified Left will allow... read more

This week President Trump took his robust agenda for reform to the United Nations (U.N.). President Trump said : “ … I am confident that if we work together and champion truly bold reforms, the United Nations will emerge as a stronger, more effective, more just and greater force for peace and harmony in the world.” As we all know, the U.N. is in shambles as its pungent incompetence spreads like a contagion around the globe.
