Bill Donohue Faithful America is a far left-wing entity (it is not a true organization) that pretends to be Christian while working hard to undermine Christianity. It has a particular hatred of Catholics. Its latest salvo is hurled at Bishop Joseph Strickland. Newsweek, which acts like a PR outlet for Faithful America, said that “Thousands of [...]
Bill Donohue Last week, Pope Francis relieved Bishop Joseph Strickland of Tyler, Texas of his duties.

Bill Donohue Sabrina Carpenter is a diminutive, immature 24-year-old who likes to wear t-shirts with the inscription, “You Act Like a B****”; it’s in reference to a lyric from her song, “Feathers.” She is in the news because of a stunt she pulled at a Brooklyn Catholic Church, the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Bill Donohue Michael McDonald, our director of communications, has prepared a report detailing the support that so-called progressives have given to Hamas. It puts to rest the notion that those who are critical of Israel are engaged in civil discourse. While some are, too many prominent Americans are not. Those who stand with Hamas stand for [...]
