    Katelyn McClure's story about a down-on-his-luck hero who'd spent his last $20 to help a stranger inspired thousands to contribute to a GoFundMe campaign that soon topped $400,000. Her claim that she'd run out of gas on Interstate 95, where the homeless veteran came to her rescue, went viral in 2017. But after all the media frenzy, it turned out to be mostly bogus - and a huge chunk of the funds raised had been used on a luxury car, clothes, vacations and trips to casinos, federal prosecutors said. Now, McClure has been sentenced for her role in the three-person...

    A woman who resigned as Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax's policy director in the days after two women accused him of sexual assault said on Thursday that she felt "brainwashed, betrayed and retraumatized" by the way he has handled the allegations against him. At a Rally Against Rape event in Arlington's Gateway Park Thursday night, Adele McClure spoke for nearly 20 minutes. Her talk was streamed live on Facebook. She recounted how she was sexually assaulted at age 16 by someone she barely knew. Then she "moved on and buried it deep," she said. "I have not thought about that, or...

    FAIRFAX, Va. --(Ammoland.com)- We are sad to report that a peerless friend of gun owners, retired U.S. Sen. James A. McClure, R-Idaho – who aggressively led the advancement of the Second Amendment cause in the U.S. Senate for two decades — died on February 26 at his home in Garden City, Idaho. He was 86. The NRA and its members will most remember Sen. McClure for his ten-year fight to reform the draconian provisions of the 1968 Gun Control Act, culminating in President Ronald Reagan’s signing into law the McClure-Volkmer Act — officially known as the Firearms Owners’ Protection Act...

    CHRISTIAN CRITICS In this chapter we will be looking at some of the most common misrepresentations of the Authorized Version. Many of these misrepresentations are unintentional. Most of the comments against the Authorized Version are, in fact, simply repetitions of what the commontator heard from the pulpit, read in a book, or learned in a classroom.

    A New Plan Let it be remebered, JESUITS DO NOT GIVE UP. They would have to bide their time. They would once again resort to undercover activities as they had so many times before. Their task would be a difficult one, yet for the unfaltering Jesuits, not impossible. They would have to discredit the Reformation. They would have to dislodge the Universal Greek Text from the firm position it once held in the minds and hearts of English scholarship. The would have to "wean" Protestantism back into the fold of Rome. To do this they would use the same plan...
