A Texas man is suing a California doctor, claiming that the doctor mailed abortion pills to his girlfriend, violated state and federal law, and caused the wrongful death of his two unborn children.

According to the complaint against Dr. Remy Coeytaux, filed July 20, Jerry Rodriguez is seeking an injunction to stop the doctor from distributing abortion drugs in Texas on behalf of “all current and future fathers of unborn children in the United States.” Rodriguez also seeks $75,000 in damages.

Rodriguez filed the suit after his girlfriend took abortion drugs on two separate occasions to end two pregnancies. The complaint alleges that Rodriguez’s girlfriend became pregnant with his child in July 2024 and planned to keep the baby. Her estranged husband, from whom she had legally separated but not yet divorced, wanted her to abort the baby and ordered abortion drugs from Coeytaux in September.

Excerpt:

Hollywood director Spike Lee has cautioned President Donald Trump against any federal move on Democrat-controlled New York City, speculating he would “think twice” about any such security intervention.

In an interview with MSNBC’s Rev. Al Sharpton, the issue was raised and this was Lee’s response in the exchange between the pair:

LEE: “We’re, Rev, as you know, this country right now, it’s bananas. And this guy trying to take over D.C. and just weaponize these things, I mean, he’s going to think twice to try to do that in New York though. That ain’t — the Boogie Down, Harlem, Bed-Stuy, Do or Die? Eh-eh.”

Secretary of State Marco Rubio had a fiery exchange with a CBS reporter on Sunday, accusing her of pushing a “stupid media narrative” regarding Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s meeting today with U.S. officials.

On yesterday’s “Face the Nation” broadcast, host Margaret Brennan claimed that European leaders were joining Zelenskyy as backup to protect him from being “bullied into signing something away.”

Rubio pushed back hard, telling Brennan, That is not true. But that’s not true, they’re not coming here tomorrow to keep Zelenskyy from being bullied.”

The party of war is apoplectic over the prospect of peace between Russia and Ukraine. The meeting was preliminary and productive, but it is soon to assess how formative it will be for an end to the war that Trump is pushing for. Roger Kimball: Trump said that he would rank their discussion as very good—”10 out of 10,” he said. He and Putin came to an agreement about a lot of issues. Some issues remained. “There’s no deal until there’s a deal,” Trump acknowledged when the summit concluded. “I will call up NATO in a little while. I will call up the various people that I think are appropriate, and I’ll, of course, call up President Zelensky and tell him about today’s meeting. It’s ultimately up to them.”

Right now, something in your home may be talking to your child about sex, self-harm, and suicide. That something isn’t a person—it’s an artificial intelligence companion chatbot.

These AI chatbots can be indistinguishable from online human relationships. They retain past conversations, initiate personalized messages, share photos, and even make voice calls. They are designed to forge deep emotional bonds—and they’re extraordinarily good at it.

Researchers are sounding the alarm on these bots, warning that they don’t ease loneliness, they worsen it. By replacing genuine, embodied human relationships with hollow, disembodied artificial ones, they distort a child’s understanding of intimacy, empathy, and trust.

The far-left failure Governor Newsom is forcing a special election in an already very gerrymandered state into a utterly one party state. Newsom is a threat to democracy. Newsom claims gerrymandering is evil so he is going to super-gerrymander California’s existing gerrymandered congressional districts. Think about that.

Newsom wants to increase Democrat representation by five more, which would give Democrats 92% representation, while 40% of California votes Republican.

U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi announced that more than 300 people have been arrested following the federal takeover of law enforcement at the District of Columbia police department.

Bondi said that 68 people were arrested overnight on Aug. 16 after President Donald Trump federalized policing in the nation’s capital. This brings the total number of arrests to more than 300 since the operation began earlier this month.

“Over 300 arrests in D.C. — and counting: Just last night, our federal and DC law enforcement partners made 68 arrests and seized 15 illegal firearms,” Bondi wrote in a post on X. “Homicide suspects, drug traffickers, and more are being charged. I’ll continue to stand with you as we make DC safe again!”

Of course, Trump made waves by questioning former President Barack Obama’s claim to birthright citizenship in 2011. But he didn’t become a true political force until he savaged low energy Jeb Bush (Jeb!), Little Marco Rubio, and the rest of the Republican establishment in the 2016 primaries. That’s when America realized something new was happening.

Trump’s dynamic rebellion catapulted not only him into the national spotlight, but also the Republican Party, whose national relevance had faded since former President George W. Bush’s fall from grace, with approvals dipping to the mid-20s by the time he helicoptered back to his Texas ranch. In the years that followed, the Tea Party’s groundswell fueled GOP congressional victories, but it failed to produce strong national leaders during the Obama era.

The DOGE revolution has identified federal waste, forced Washington politicians to rethink their spending habits, and exposed the decades-long crusade by Democrats to funnel taxpayer money into activism. In a state like North Dakota — a deep-red stronghold — you’d expect Republicans to seize November’s America First mandate and gut bloated budgets.

Think again. Too many unprincipled legislators are choking on the swamp’s fumes, betraying the voters who rejected the status quo. It’s time to call them out.

Politicians care more about re-election and climbing the ladder than they do about your wallet. They’ll dodge tough cuts to keep their seats, leaving taxpayers to foot the bill.

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky can immediately end the Russian invasion “if he wants to” by accepting the terms being offered to him, U.S. President Donald Trump wrote ahead of European leaders descending on Washington en masse on Monday.

Volodymyr Zelensky will meet with President Trump at the White House on Monday and will be supported by the presence of a large delegation of European leaders who say they are determined to see Europe’s perspective on the Ukraine War imposed on peace talks. These talks come as comments from Brussels and Washington make clear a gulf exists between the European maximalist position on international law being in the driving seat, and President Trump’s push for ending the killing by gaining concessions.

Zelenskyy spoke to reporters in Brussels over the weekend, not long after President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin met in Alaska for a historic summit.

During the meeting, Putin said that Ukraine would need to abandon its Donetsk and Luhansk regions on the eastern border as a condition for peace. Zelenskyy responded to the demands and announced what he is considering an arrangement.

When President Trump asserts federal control over Washington, D.C., half measures won’t do. To succeed, he needs to go all the way — and his plan to extend the federal presence in the district is a good start.

The 1973 Home Rule Act allows a president to reassert control over the Metropolitan Police Department for 30 days. Extending beyond that would likely require a congressional resolution or invoking emergency powers, either of which would trigger a Capitol Hill fight. Democrats’ push for D.C. statehood — and two guaranteed Senate seats — depends on convincing Americans that the district can govern itself. It can’t. The city’s experiment in representative democracy has failed as spectacularly as many regimes in the Middle East.

Baltimore Ravens superstar QB Lamar Jackson is facing a left-wing cancel mob after reposting a message of faith from Charlie Kirk.

The repost on X simply said “It’s all about Jesus” – a sentiment all Christians should agree on despite political leanings.

Jackson’s show of faith quickly drew outrage from far-left posters online, who attacked him for amplifying Kirk, a conservative activist and founder of Turning Point USA. His breathless critics argued that by sharing the post, Jackson was platforming Kirk’s politics, while others countered that the quarterback was only affirming his Christian beliefs.

The University of Michigan and its Michigan Law Review Association are facing a federal civil rights lawsuit filed by Faculty, Alumni, and Students Opposed to Racial Preferences over alleged racial and sexual discrimination in the law review’s selection process.

The lawsuit accuses the law review of engaging in “corrupt and illegal scheme of race and sex preferences” with the permission of the school.

Around the year 1212, a boy preached to children in France that they should take up the cross and follow him to the Holy Land. Thousands did. None reached Jerusalem. Most gave up before leaving Europe. Others were shipwrecked or sold into slavery in the Islamic caliphate of Tunisia.

Centuries later, the Biden administration’s facilitation of mass illegal entry by unaccompanied alien children and release of them into the hands of unvetted adults has caused misery on an even larger scale.

The seed was planted years earlier. As Lora Ries, a former official with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, wrote, a 2008 law called the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act created incentives to “entice parents to send their children across the border unaccompanied to receive immigration benefits and gain a foothold in the U.S. so their families could hopefully later follow.”

California’s ‘Streamlined’ Permitting Process for Green Energy is Stuck – breitbart.com

Excerpt:

California is struggling to approve permits even for “green” projects like solar and wind energy — and even under a formally “streamlined” process that was meant to accelerate projects that help fight climate change.

Politico reports that California’s new process under a 2022 law, which was meant to limit permitting to 270 days, has been completely ineffective, as local opposition is still able to delay “green” projects for many years.

Politico reported Sunday:

A wind power farm in the mountains of far-Northern California was the first through the door of a new permit streamlining program that came with a lofty promise to renewable energy developers: Once a permit application was complete, the California Energy Commission would make a final ruling on the project within 270 days.

A couple of psychology researchers from Northwestern University did a study of nearly 1,500 young men and women enrolled at both Northwestern and the University of Michigan, asking this: “Have you ever pretended to hold more progressive views than you truly endorse to succeed socially or academically?”

The result? “An astounding 88% said yes.”

They conclude that “on today’s college campuses, students are not maturing — they’re managing. Beneath a facade of progressive slogans and institutional virtue-signaling lies a quiet psychological crisis, driven by the demands of ideological conformity.”  They call it performative morality.

During his press conference with the presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan, where he discussed brokering their peace, a reporter also asked him about Somaliland. President Trump, positioning himself as a true dealmaker who brokers peace among longtime warring factions, has a significant opportunity to strengthen these fledgling nations.

East Turkistan is another country yearning for freedom, located to the east of Kazakhstan in Central Asia. Currently occupied by the People’s Republic of China and labeled the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, most of the world has never heard of this country because of the Chinese government’s ethnic cleansing and propaganda war of suppression and secrecy.

However, most people have heard of the Uyghurs.

We Need to Rethink AI Before It Destroys What It Means to Be Human  American Greatnes

Excerpt:

America was built on the foundational belief that every man is created in the image of God with purpose, responsibility, and the liberty to chart his own course. We were not made to be managed. We were not made to be obsolete. But that is exactly the future Big Tech is building under the banner of Artificial Intelligence (AI). And if we do not slam the brakes right now, we are going to find ourselves in a world where the human experience is not enhanced by technology but erased by it.

Even Elon Musk, who is arguably one of AI’s most influential innovators, has warned us about the path we are on. In a sit-down with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, he laid out the endgame. AI will lead us to either a future like the Terminator or what he described as Heaven on Earth. But here is the kicker. That so-called heaven looks a lot like Pixar’s Wall-E, where human beings become obese, lazy blobs who float around while robots do all the work, all the thinking, and frankly all the living. This may seem like science fiction, but this is what they are actually building.

Jim Acosta’s AI-generated interview with a victim of the 2018 Parkland school shooting, Joaquin Oliver, has stirred the internet. Created from a video made by Oliver’s parents for what would have been his 25th birthday, it’s a reminder of the enduring pain felt by the community, survivors, and victims’ families of atrocities like Parkland.

The ethics behind Acosta’s “interview” may be questionable, but as a father of four preparing for back-to-school, it also raises the question: Are schools ready to protect students if — God forbid — a mass shooter attacks?

If a safety plan can’t withstand basic questions, it likely can’t withstand a real threat.

President Donald Trump revealed on Sunday night that Russian President Vladimir Putin wanted their summit meeting to be held “anywhere” but the United States, saying it was “very hard” for Putin to make an appearance in Alaska for the high-stakes meeting.

Trump made the revelation in a Truth Social post on Sunday night, in which he took aim at the media over criticism of having Putin on U.S. soil for a summit that ultimately ended with no ceasefire or peace deal in the Ukraine war.

“The Fake News has been saying for 3 days that I suffered a ‘major defeat’ by allowing President Vladimir Putin of Russia to have a major Summit in the United States. Actually, he would have loved doing the meeting anywhere else but the U.S., and the Fake News knows this. It was a major point of contention!” the U.S. president said.

Pope Leo XIV has taught, in accord with the Church’s doctrine, that Judas Iscariot was damned for his betrayal of Our Lord.

During his August 13 weekly audience, while giving a catechesis on Judas’ betrayal of Christ and reflecting on Our Lord’s words, ‘better if he had never been born,’ the pontiff noted that Judas chose to exclude himself from salvation through his betrayal. Pope Leo’s brief statement is in stark contrast to that of his immediate predecessor, Pope Francis, who said that he did not know if Judas went to hell.

“When [God] sees evil, he does not avenge it, but grieves. And that ‘better if he had never been born’ is not a condemnation imposed a priori, but a truth that any of us can recognize: if we deny the love that has generated us, if by betraying we become unfaithful to ourselves, then we truly lose the meaning of our coming into the world, and we exclude ourselves from salvation,” Pope Leo said.
