A strong pro-life presence in the Valley has been evidenced by the recent opening of Planned Parenthood, along a major thoroughfare in Hemet. Honks and waves from passersby often accompany small groups that pray and protest outside the new abortion center.

Organizers believe that Abortion ends a precious life, but by offering hurting women options and loving care instead of abortion, mothers will choose to give life a chance.

I couldn’t hold my tears back as I watched the testimony of four police officers in front of the House select committee on the January 6 insurrection. Strong, burly men turned into an emotional mess as they described what they went through that day in order to protect the men and women serving in the congress. I couldn’t help but feel their anguish, as the testimony was that moving and that charged. You have to be an individual of very low class if you hear about their pain and suffering and make light of it, make jokes about it, or try to diminish it in any way. Sadly, there were quite a few individuals on social and other media doing just that.
