Jordan Estabrook | April 24, 2024
Late last week, Biden dismantled the heart of Title IX, which was initially enacted in 1972 to protect women and to provide equal opportunities in education and sports.

Jordan Estabrook | April 10, 2024
In a bizarre interpretation of scripture, Whoopi Goldberg doesn’t think abortion is included in the 10 commandments, even though “Thou Shalt Not Kill” is clearly outlined. “It’s you, your doctor, and God. That’s who you have to be conversational to, and it’s not mentioned in the big 10, I’m just going to say,” said Goldberg on The View when discussing
