Father Dies From Grief of Daughter Being Tortured, Raped and Murdered by Illegal Immigrant

By: Samuel Short | The Western Journal European migration has once again proved itself to be an abject failure. Whereas Europe and the Western world stood as the bastion of hope and prosperity for many, it now functions as a breeding ground for the most horrific barbarity from the people it takes in. In France, a 12-year-old schoolgirl was raped and murdered by an Algerian woman after begging for her life, according to CNN. Now, 27-year-old Dahbia Benkired has been sentenced to life in prison without parole for this bloodthirsty, evil crime that caused the girl’s father to drink himself to death.

From Grief to Grace: How Steve Witkoff Found Strength After Tragedy

By: Alex Witkoff | Commentary, The New York Post My father, Steve Witkoff, has always been a man of compassion. His life has been built on a simple creed: When people suffer, you do not look away — you step forward and help. He did not come from privilege. His father was a coat manufacturer, and at 29, with no financial safety net, he took the leap to start his own business. Hard work was his inheritance; perseverance his language. Even as he built a career from nothing, he never allowed success to eclipse his humanity or his devotion to family. Between 2009 and 2011, our family faced the greatest trial imaginable: My older brother, Andrew, was battling addiction — a disease that consumed his spirit but never his light. My parents surrounded him with constant care, but ...

Swift, Rocky, and Oz: What Stories Teach Us About Being Human

By Drake Hunter | Commentary, RMV NE CO Newsroom, Rocky Mountain Voice Yesterday morning’s Today show lineup truly felt like it was straight out of a movie, with the charming romance between Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift (Sincerely, CONGRATULATIONS!), a heartfelt nod to Rocky's classic resilience (my go-to movie), and a stunning reimagining of The Wizard of Oz at The Sphere in Las Vegas (the four characters I highlight when teaching temperament). But then, suddenly, came a jarring headline about shots fired at Annunciation Catholic Church, a place of worship and community (an understanding of “Annunciation” follows this piece).  The incident, which resulted in [2 deaths & 17 injuries as of this writing], shook us to our core and reminded us of the fragility of life. From ...
