New poll reveals dramatic shift towards the pro-life position among Americans

Cohen’s Credibility Crushed by Republicans as He Accuses President Trump of Criminal Conduct

(Worthy News) – It’s been described as the hearing heard around the world – with President Trump overseas trying to bring peace with North Korea, Democrats gave a microphone to a witness on a mission to undermine the president. Trump’s ex-lawyer, who once said he would take a bullet for President Trump, instead lambasted the president for hours on Capitol Hill.

The president’s disgraced former personal attorney Michael Cohen, who has been sentenced to prison for lying to Congress, told Congress Wednesday that he lied many times for President Trump and did things he’s ashamed of now.

House Republicans repeatedly slammed Cohen as a “liar”, looking to undermine his accusations against Trump, accusing Democrats of bringing him in just so they could seek ammunition for impeachment, and using the venue to poke holes in Cohen’s credibility before he heads to prison for perjury.

Missouri House Passes Wide-Ranging Abortion Restrictions

(Worthy News) – The Missouri House on Wednesday took steps to outlaw most abortions in the state should the U.S. Supreme Court overturn Roe v. Wade, an effort that’s part of a broader Republican push amid renewed optimism that the high court might be more open to increased restrictions, and possibly an outright ban, on the procedure.

The wide-ranging legislation includes other measures that would take effect even if the high court doesn’t overturn its 1973 ruling establishing the nationwide right to abortion. Among the restrictions is a ban on most abortions after a fetal heartbeat is detected, possibly as early as six weeks into a pregnancy. Similar bans in Arkansas, Iowa and North Dakota in recent years have been struck down by courts. [ Source: CBN News (Read More…) ]

House votes to notify ICE when illegal immigrants try to buy guns

(Worthy News) – Republicans scored a rare victory in the Democrat-controlled House Wednesday, winning a vote to have authorities notify deportation officers any time an illegal immigrant tries to buy a gun.

It’s illegal for those in the country without legal status to have firearms, but an average of more than 10 a day try anyway.

Republicans offered an amendment to a broader gun background check bill to have the National Instant Criminal Background Check System report them to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which could then decide if it wants to pick them up for deportation.

U.S. House approves expanded background checks for gun sales

(Worthy News) – The U.S. House of Representatives on Wednesday passed a bill that would expand background checks for gun sales to include firearm purchases at gun shows and over the internet, a measure likely to face Senate and White House opposition.

The background check bill, which was approved by a 240-190 vote, is the first gun control measure taken up by Democrats since they regained control of the House in the 2018 congressional midterm elections.

The bill is likely to face opposition when it goes to the Republican-controlled Senate, however. It would also need President Donald Trump’s signature in order to become law. [ Source: Reuters (Read More…) ]

Netanyahu in Moscow tells Putin Israel will continue hitting Iran in Syria

(Worthy News) – Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told Russian President Vladimir Putin that Israel will continue to take action against Iran in Syria, in the first significant meeting between the two since a major spat developed over a downed spy plane last year.

“The greatest threat to stability and security in the region comes from Iran and its proxies,” Netanyahu said. “We are determined to continue our aggressive activity against Iran, which calls for our destruction, and against its attempts to establish itself militarily in Syria.”

Israel and Russia have been at odds since September, when Syrian air defenses shot down a Russian reconnaissance plane while aiming at an Israeli jet that was targeting an alleged Iranian installation. The incident, which Moscow blamed Israel for, threatened to hamper Israel’s air campaign against Iranian entrenchment in Syria. [ Source: Times of Israel (Read More…) ]

Iranian general: ‘We plan to break US, Israel, cleanse world of their filth’

(Worthy News) – The deputy commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps says Tehran has plans “to break America, Israel, and their partners and allies” in worldwide attacks.

In a speech aired February 19 on Iran’s IRINN TV, Brig. Gen. Hossein Salami said Iran was preparing to “fight them on the global level, not just in one spot. Our war is not a local war.
