CRICKETS: Media silent after Pope Francis compares abortion to hiring a hitman

Pope Francis was in the news again yesterday. Have you noticed the Media has a very conditional love for Pope Francis? He's popular-Pope when he's sounding the alarm on climate change. Like the urgency he showed in June, when he told a gathering of oil company executives that, "There is no time to lose" in saving the planet from climate change. The media jumped at the chance to contrast the Pope's urgency with what they view as President Trump's shameful environmental hostility.

The Media loves climate-change-superhero-Pope. But anti-abortion Pope? Yeah, strangely, not as popular.

Yesterday, during his weekly general audience address in St. Peter's Square, Pope Francis discussed abortion and asked:

How can an act that suppresses innocent and defenseless budding human life be therapeutic, civil or simply human?

He continued:

Is it right to hire a hitman to solve a problem? One cannot do this, it is not right to do away with a human being, albeit small, to solve a problem.

Gasp! Pope Francis compared abortion providers to hitmen – which would make Planned Parenthood some kind of hitman chain store.

In June, Pope Francis condemned the growing trend of aborting babies with conditions or deformities. He compared it to the Nazi policy of weeding out undesirables through sterilization and execution. Comparisons to hitmen and Nazis? How dare he stoop to such hyperbole! The Left would never use such a tactic. Remember, they're all about civility. Why can't the Pope just get back to climate change, which is obviously a much greater threat to human life than abortion?

In June, Pope Francis condemned the growing trend of aborting babies with conditions or deformities.

Perhaps Pope Francis feels added urgency to speak out against abortion since his home country, Argentina, recently barely avoided legalizing abortion. And just last month, Ireland, another majority Catholic nation, changed its law to allow abortion.

From dealing with the Catholic Church's child abuse crisis, to making compromising deals with China, Pope Francis has had some very bad recent months. At least he seems to have some integrity left when it comes to protecting life.

POLL: What did YOU think about the 2nd GOP presidential debate?

Wednesday was a big night for the Republican presidential candidates during the second GOP debate... OR WAS IT?

Glenn wasn't impressed with the debate. In fact, he went as far as to say it was the worst Presidential debate BY FAR he had ever seen for THIS reason: NO ONE discussed the major issues that Americans are actually facing.

Inflation has doubled Americans' grocery bills. Gas is nearing a historic record of $100/barrel. We have DOUBLED our national deficit. Bidenomics and the globalists' green agenda pose an existential threat to core American industries while we continue to fund the Ukrainian people's pensions and small businesses. It is as if our government has forgotten the American people.

COVID is back! Or that is what we’re being told anyway...

A recent spike in COVID cases has triggered the left's alarm bells, and the following institutions have begun to reinstate COVID-era mandates. You might want to avoid them if you enjoy breathing freely...

There was a time when both the Left and the Right agreed that parents have the final say in raising their children... Not anymore.

In the People's Republic of California, the STATE, not parents, will determine whether children should undergo transgender treatments. The California state legislature just passed a law that will require judges in child custody cases to consider whether parents support a child’s gender transition. According to the law, the state now thinks total affirmation is an integral part of a child’s “health, safety, and welfare.”

We are inching closer to a dystopia where the state, not the parents, have ultimate rights over their children, a history that people from former Soviet nations would feign repeating.

The Biden admin has let in MORE illegal aliens than the populations of THESE 15 states

There are currently an estimated 16.8 MILLION illegal aliens residing in the United States as of June 2023, according to the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR). This number is already 1.3 million higher than FAIR's January 2022 estimate of 15.5 million and a 2.3 million increase from its end-of-2020 estimate. Even Democrats like New York City's Mayor Adams Mayor Adams are waking up to what Conservatives have been warning for years: we are in a border CRISIS.

However, this isn't the same border crisis that Republicans were warning about back in 2010. In the first two years of the Biden administration alone, the illegal alien population increased by 16 PERCENT nationwide, imposing a whopping net cost of $150.6 BILLION PER YEAR on American taxpayers. That is nearly DOUBLE the total amount that the Biden administration has sent to Ukraine.

This isn't the same border crisis that Republicans were warning about back in 2010.

These large numbers often make it difficult to conceptualize the sheer impact of illegal immigration on the United States. To put it in perspective, we have listed ALL 15 states and the District of Colombia that have smaller populations than the 2.3 MILLION illegal immigrants, who have entered the U.S. under the Biden administration. That is more than the entire populations of Wyoming, Vermont, and South Dakota COMBINED—and the American taxpayers have to pay the price.

Here are all 16 states/districts that have FEWER people than the illegal immigrants who have entered the U.S. under the Biden administration.

1. New Mexico

Population: 2,110,011

2. Idaho

Population: 1,973,752
