Bill Donohue As I pointed out in my book, The Truth about Clergy Sexual Abuse: Clarifying the Facts and the Causes, the scandal in the Catholic Church mostly occurred between the mid-1960s and the mid-1980s. But don’t tell that to the Associated Press (AP). They have a vested ideological reason for continuing the myth that nothing [...]
Bill Donohue The Holly Jolly Drag Show will perform on December 8 at a local restaurant in Albertville, Alabama, outside of Huntsville. Jessica Turner’s catering business, Baked and Boozy, is hosting the event. Because it is being held on private property, the local mayor, Tracy Honea, says he cannot do anything about it. He’s right about [...]

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. Though no reason was given, it is widely believed that the pope was not happy with the bishop’s criticisms of him.

Bill Donohue Much has been made of Bill Maher’s recent attacks on woke politics, and he is quite good at it. Unfortunately, his anti-Catholic bigotry is so ingrained that he is incapable of changing on that score.
