I wondered for a bit if I’d ever get better.” Kearns, 71, recounted the experience during a check-up with his physician, Dr. Gaurab Basu, and Dr. Charlotte Rastas, a third year resident in primary […]

At San Antonio’s Cornerstone Church on Sunday morning, hundreds of maskless congregants sang and prayed, swaying together in the pews, babies and grandparents in close proximity.

Hagee said during the Oct. 4 livestreamed service that his father “has been diligent throughout this entire […]

Philadelphia is seeing an increase in shootings so the far-left City Council and police organized a ‘home gun-check campaign’ urging residents to turn in their firearms. Makes sense. Voluntary gun buyback programs and other programs aimed at urging residents to voluntarily turn in their firearms would only increase violence because it keeps criminals armed and disarms law abiding citizens. Far left “community groups” with backing from city officials and police are distributing flyers which reads “save a life, turn in a gun.” TRENDING: Multiple People Arrested For Not Wearing Masks in OC Grocery Store – Store Manager Locked Them in and […]
